This is so powerful. Inspired by the March of a Thousand Robes in Poland, retired and sitting judges in the United States walked down the streets of Columbus, Ohio to stand up for the Rule of Law. #JusticeinMotion

Free speech absolutist.

I think @govandybeshear.bsky.social should just appoint a Dem to fill McConnell’s seat. It would force proof of life, and the state law that stripped him of that power should be challenged in court. I’m sure Thune would refuse to seat the appointee, but I think it’s a fight worth having. BE BOLD!

"Today, Davey Hearn pled not guilty — because he is not guilty," Norm Eisen, one of his attorneys, said outside DC Superior Court. "If Mr. Hearn can be charged with a felony for touching the reflecting pool, every American is at risk — and every American should be alarmed about this prosecution."

He fell asleep in a meeting with Turkish President Erdogan, referred to Iran as the "Islamic Republic of Japan", TikTok as "Tic Tac", President Zelensky as "President Putin" & once again demanded the U.S. be given control of Greenland. He's much less dangerous while sleeping than when he's awake. 💤

What Say You,Military Recruiters...?

Apparently hell has frozen over. I’m reposting Glenn Beck now.

Great news for the American people 💯🎯

When the Speaker of the House says he runs a 'protection program' for the GOP, that's not how democracy works. Congress is supposed to check power, not shield it. If they need protection from investigation, what are they protecting? JOHNSON ADMITTED THEY HAVE COMMITTED CRIMES. #ProudBlue #Pinks

As the former President of South Korea serves a life sentence for his role in a failed insurrection, his wife just got sentenced to 7 years in prison for bribery. The US could learn a lot from South Korea what accountability looks like for power-hungry, corrupt grifters. youtu.be/nAUksLhLSKs?...

The average life expectancy of a new Russian recruit—from arrival at a training ground to death in a combat zone—lies somewhere between 10 days and three weeks. Once sent onto the battlefield, they survive an average of 20 to 35 minutes. @peterfrankopan.bsky.social foreignpolicy.com/2026/06/25/r...

Yup. His schedule says he is supposed to be golfing at the Trump National Golf Club today and tomorrow he has nothing scheduled, so he's probably getting mysterious medical treatments followed by rant and rave time.

“If we lose, people might investigate us" is a helluva campaign pitch for "innocent" politicians.

Dueling Heatwaves ‼️ Europe vs USA in a match no one wants! It’s #Europe’s most severe #heatwave in history w/ Germany to 109 this weekend VS the USA where next week swelters w/ feels like up to 115°! This is boosted by the strong El Niño, steroids on top of the heating climate!

"Hydrogen peroxide’s ability to act as an oxidizing agent makes it potentially useful for breaking down and removing paint. The oxidation process can weaken the paint’s bond to the underlying surface, theoretically making it easier to remove."

Huge win!! In partnership with Senator Lisa Murkowski, we protected the Ocean Observatories Initiative—critical sensors that are essential for managing our fisheries, forecasting weather, and understanding climate change.

The largest and sharpest image ever taken of the Andromeda galaxy — otherwise known as M31. It is the biggest Hubble image ever released and shows over 100 million stars, thousands of star clusters in a section of the galaxy’s disc stretching across over 40 000 light-years. Original post

Wait. For. It. NASA animation shows Global temps warm slowly at first, then rapidly. Warming is accelerating! Here’s the truth. It’s real. It’s us. And we have to come to terms with it, and deal with reality, rather than deceiving ourselves, and hoping it goes away. It won’t… without intervention.

The first known sanction of its kind held CoreCivic responsible for destroying video in a case alleging wrongful death of an ICE detainee.

NEW: Colorado’s League of Women Voters has withdrawn a planned “Leader of Democracy” Award for Gov Jared Polis after he gave clemency to Tina Peters.

This is an Admin that hunts down leakers of classified information and launches investigations including subpoenas to media companies who print the info to discover their sources. But they seem completely disinterested in leakers to Axios.

Trump's coup is over. He controls congress, the executive branch, SCOTUS, the DOJ, the FBI, the military and the media. There is no one to hold him accountable for anything. We are still refusing to admit this as a country while he robs us blind and destroys democracy.

⚡️ HAPPENING NOW — “THE DISTRICTS MAY NOT BE CHANGED BETWEEN APPORTIONMENTS….” Tennesseans are reading the law Republicans are breaking to steal representation from Memphis out loud before rules committee

The article claims that the slush fund was shut down.

I just discovered recently that the second iteration of the Ku Klux Klan after WWI was more virulently anti-Catholic than it was anti-Black. That surprised me. When I wrote with Baptists for the Landover Baptist satire, I was told Baptists call Catholics, among other things, "Mary Worshippers."

Iranian forces fired on US warships and the vessels they were escorting. UU responded by destroying 6 Iranian fast attack boats. Iran is threatening a “new phase of the war” tonight, and US sources are saying US-Israeli strikes to resume imminently. What a Trumpster fire.
