15 days ago, Rocky came in as close to death as is possible for a dog to be. It has been a battle to get him back into shape but I think you will agree that he is looking fantastic.

Donald Trump and his massively incompetent Administration of Obsequious Toadies. Worshiped only by the Republican MAGA Cult of the Perpetually Stupid. Decent Americans say No Más.

My late USAF brother in law flew two tours in Vietnam. He died at 70 yo and was on 100% disability the last 20 years of his life due to agent orange exposure. He developed exposure related diabetes and had both legs amputated. www.stripes.com/opinion/2025...

I was in the Air Force there. Disabled by Agent Orange now.

When Rubio abruptly halted foreign aid last year, cleanup crews in Vietnam were forced to abandon one of the largest chemical spills in the world for weeks. Left exposed: open pits of soil contaminated with dioxin, the deadly byproduct of Agent Orange. From Pulitzer finalist “The End of Aid”:

More fallout and more people harmed because of stupidity in the voting booth November 2024. It didn’t have to be this way. These poor people.❤️‍🩹

This place is amazing. Make an appointment to see it here: trumpsonian.us

As gas prices skyrocket and some are resorting to public transit to get to and from work.... the Transportation Secretary took a road trip to film a reality tv show... during a government shutdown.

Are y’all paying attention?

Tut Tut!

I'm wondering if RFK Jr. recommends taking hot baths at Yellowstone? 🤷🏼‍♂️

“We have to fight with everything we have. Our children will judge us not by what we do, but by what we don’t do.” @brotherjones.bsky.social tells Kanew & @realdlhughley.bsky.social why he 🔥 a confederate flag, as Tennessee Republicans stripped majority-Black Memphis of representation.

“You can’t tell me it’s not racism if you’re gonna smirk at the pain of Black Tennesseans while you do it.” Kanew & @brotherjones.bsky.social on the complete and total lack of empathy from Tennessee Republicans as they stripped majority-Black Memphis of representation.

Back at the White House: No AI slop necessary:

classy stuff from the president

Also this pic that will live forever.

A lot has happened, but not much has changed.

"I feel that there's a need for accountability... by investigations and ultimately impeachment and removal of this criminal president. And, that's where I come in. As a lawyer who's litigated and conducted investigations for 3 decades here in New York, I think I have a special talent for that.

Ex congressman Jim Cooper chief of staff Lisa Quigley and data analyst david manasco👇🏽are both among those saying the new map stripping Memphis of representation actually has potentially put 4-5 TN districts within range… if Dems really turn out and vote. 👀

Michelle Obama, exactly as she is. Beautiful, graceful, intelligent, and strong woman. Joy is resistance. Grace is power. #SheShed

"A democracy without Black representation is not a democracy."

Cleansing your feed this AM, walking for graduation this weekend!

This is my daughter's dog. Last time I visited was in December. She remembers me and has waited outside the shower, slept in my bed, brought me toys. We are inseparable for the next several days. Which is just fine.

🔥 @aoc.bsky.social : “They assume my ambition is a title — my ambition is way bigger than that. My ambition is to change this country. Presidents come and go, single payer is forever. A living wage is forever.”

The equal time rule is an anachronism from the days when there were only three networks and the airwaves were scarce. It also hearkens back to when "news" on television meant Walter Cronkite. Of course content on The View is protected by the First Amendment.

We need to steel ourselves for the fight. Because, fuck them. Use your frustration, your passion, your rage to get to work. Contact @fieldteam6.org to help register likely Democrats and to get them to the polls!

You didn't "earn" a billions dollars, Jeff Bezos. You *took it* from your poorly paid workers.

Welcome back to Canada, President Obama. Thank you for joining us in Toronto for important conversations on how we can build a better and more just future — and empower more people to build with us.

Because of course he did. newrepublic.com/post/210174/...

This actually happened before, but it’s not a cult

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but what’s going on in the south right now with voting rights and erasure, is a “kitchen table issue” — for Black families. And it should be for everyone.

WATCH — @realdlhughley.bsky.social : “I don’t understand why a 4/5 star athlete would go to a school where the state is ushering in a new iteration of Jim Crow… if you can’t run in a state, don’t run in a state.” #Memphis #Louisiana #Tennessee #Alabama @GovBillLee @MarshaBlackburn

SENATOR LAMAR: “Racism does not become less racist because it’s called ‘PARTISAN’ — This is how democracy dies.”😕🇺🇸

Zelensky issued an official presidential decree authorizing Russia to hold its Victory Day parade in Moscow tomorrow. He included the exact coordinates of Red Square. That's it. A+ trolling.

This dog was a three term mayor of Whoville.
