@troyjackson207.bsky.social for US Senate.

Dems have dumped Swalwell and platner Republicans have nominated Ken Paxton

"We know how to play dirty football too" Kylian Mbappé's translated interview

Kylian Mbappé DID NOT hold back after a scrappy win over Paraguay 😳 #FIFAWorldCup

Truck “rolling coal” and playing “Dixie” is the highlight of the Greenville ME 4th parade. Garbage.

July 4, 2012: The Roots with DJ Jazzy Jeff and Naturally 7: "Gonna Fly Now (Rocky)", "Paul Revere," "Bustin Loose."

I'll summarize this: Mamdani asked NYers to keep air conditioning at 78 degrees. A wave criticism hit online. A MSNBC broadcast pointed out the US Department of Energy recommends that 78 degree figure. Immediately after, the US Department of Energy deleted 6,000 web pages related to energy saving.

Susan Collins' billionaire-funded super PAC drops another $1.8 million. Collins' husband worked for the lobbyist running this super PAC. #mesen #mepolitics

america has a fun shortage and it's important we talk about it (decline in third spaces, etc etc)

“I’m not hurting anyone. We just don’t want data centers.” “I just graduated from Stoklosa Middle School. I am the future.” www.bostonherald.com/2026/06/30/l...

The always-excellent @ddayen.bsky.social drills down on Susan Collins's corruption, with striking details we weren't aware of (or didn't remember) that sure make it seem like she tailored legislation to benefit Daffron's firm and steer money into its coffers. #MEpolitics 1/X

This Celtics/JB trade makes me feel like this…

Damn. @nbcnews.com www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

Today's NYT jobs report coverage (left) compared to exactly 2 years ago under Biden (right). Notice the numbers.

We should make room in our definition of "scandal" for the things that the Founding Fathers wrote in the constitution prohibiting because they believed it to be so scandalous: self-dealing, self-enrichment, and corruption. prospect.org/2026/07/02/p...

Damn. Im forever rooting for @fchwpo.bsky.social Total respect 🫡

The American Prospect points out how soft media outlets like @pressherald.com or the @bangordailybot.bsky.social have enabled Collins to grift w/o accountability.

Collins has been enriching herself for years!!!!

You poured your heart and soul into this city 🍀 Thank you for everything, Jaylen

@pressherald.com you’re getting scooped at real news.

Stock trades by President. The blatant corruption is just staggering

Paul LePage is a shill for corporations and the wealthy. Don't take my word for it — he's defending the Big Beautiful Bill: raises your healthcare costs to hand billionaires a tax cut. Working families lose. Corporations win. That's Paul LePage in a nutshell.

Harry Kane slow motion & statcast

He saw King Charles’ fingers and wanted to look more royal…

The Celtics are signing Mitchell Robinson, which is a huge splash. Here's more on that and how it impacts Boston's finances: www.si.com/nba/celtics/...

OhA graphic featuring an image of Donald Trump with a sly grin on his face. Text on screen reads a quote from Trump on being president: "I *am* profiting."

This is generally a good piece and I’m glad to see the attention on policy, but it understates Charles’ positions. He wants to create a giant budget hole and only partially offset it by gutting the safety net. He wants to cut the HHS budget in half! #mepolitics www.pressherald.com/2026/07/01/h...

There have always only been 2 logical outcomes: 1. Let trans people play sports 2. ALL female athletes getting their genitals examined by *we literally don’t know who* 👇 Centrists who fucked around convincing themselves otherwise are about to find out

Asking the question I think just about everyone's asking right now: Will LeBron go to WWE or AEW?

Romy’s back!!!

@golden.house.gov cannot leave Congress soon enough.

The Supreme Court today addressed one of the most pressing threats to the nation today: banning this high school sophomore from playing school sports with her friends 🫡🫠🙃

It’s really important to install an entire federal discrimination system so somebody’s cis daughter can finish 14th at her swim meet.

My friend and colleague Michelle passed away unexpectedly over the weekend. She was the technical director for NESN Red Sox, Bruins and visiting NBA shows in Boston. If you watch sports in New England you have seen her work. She was a talented TD, a loyal friend and an all around great person.

Congress is such an embarrassment. The Constitution gives it the power to declare war and to approve treaties. Yet Republicans have imposed no penalty for Trump starting a war without them, and the best they can do is ask for guardrails on a treaty to end it www.bangordailynews.com/2026/06/29/p...

Susan Collins is uniquely responsible for the fall of Roe | Opinion

Incredible chart from @propublica.org. If you don’t follow enviro stuff closely, your instinct might be that the hold-your-nose solution (carbon capture from fossil fuels) would be the “pragmatic” one versus covering Earth in solar panels, which seems utopian. In fact it’s the opposite

Brazil’s winner

If only we could have nice things…

Do as Suzie says, not as Suzie does…

@pressherald.com working overtime to keep Collins in the race. What is Suzie paying you guys?

Stokely Carmichael was born June 29, 1941

New Mexico and Colorado have both eliminated qualified immunity. We can all do it. innocenceproject.org/news/new-mex...

The issue is that nonpartisan, independent, and fact-based (good goals for journalism) have been replaced by centrist and equally critical of both parties, neither of which are journalistic principles. So confronted with a radical wing of the GOP, legacy media invents equally radical Dems.
