We would not be in this mess without the help of a corrupt Supreme Court. So much for Roberts being a Constitutionalist. And his conservative cronies are all willing to put their political and religious beliefs ahead of the nation’s democratic principles. Heaven help us!

Holder: The Supreme Court is a broken institution. And it’s something that has to be part of the national conversation in ’26 and in ’28. If there is a Democratic trifecta in 2028—and I think the possibility of that is pretty good—Supreme Court reform has to be on the table.

The richest man on earth owns X. The second richest man on earth is about to acquire TikTok and his family could soon own both Paramount and Warner Bros. The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post. See the problem here?

Back from my local No Kings rally. Biggest crowd I’ve ever seen in my Berkshires town. Everyone was energized, joyful, and committed to saving democracy. #NoKings

So much for John Roberts being a Constitutionalist. Since the Trump era began, he has repeatedly thrown the Constitution into the dumpster. And trampled on the judicious, measured work of state and federal judges. And here we are…

Pam Bondi gives new meaning to the term Absurd Person Singular. Her unbridled willingness to spew hate, lies, venom, and cruelty add just one more layer to Trump era outrageousness and the never-seen-before nature of this regrettable time in U.S. history.

ICE is made up of men who have failed the human test and have nothing of value to offer this nation. Adults with decency and options and possibilities don’t do this shit.

Trumpnomics: Get tariff money from US consumers on Chinese goods. Our farmers can’t sell their products because the Chinese refuse to pay our tariffs. China buys from farmers in Argentina instead. We send Argentina $20 billion. Then we pay our farmers to throw their crops away.

I like how Joe Biden never sent creepy and cryptic birthday notes to Jeffrey Epstein.

the media couldn’t tell the difference between senility and stuttering ⁉️

we are currently watching an entire political party run cover for the most notorious sex trafficking ring in modern human history

NEW: While everyone is focused on Epstein, the RNC continues to try to intimidate state election officials. I predict that this is the predicate to an RNC lawsuit.

He just dropped $280,000,000 worth of artillery in a war that’s not ours, but our grandparents have to live on Ramen noodles because America can’t afford Meals on Wheels anymore. Make it make sense.

Harriet Tubman #quilt by my Mom, Vera P. Hall, who makes quilts celebrating Black people who fought for their own freedom. This seems to be the crowd favorite of the “We Didn’t Wait for Freedom” series. Happy #Juneteenth #quilting

So George Floyd may have passed a fake $20 and was killed by law enforcement for it. White people convicted of committing millions of dollars worth of fraud…. Full Trump pardons. Do I have this right?

Dealing with relentless flu symptoms. Cannot get much work done. Fuzzy headed and phlegmy with aches and scratchy throat. So taking advantage of the moment and following the Karen Read trial. She’s innocent. And this Canton cops are DIRTY! #KarenRead

14,000 babies. If Netanyahu doesn’t allow food and aid to reach Gaza now, that is how many innocent babies will die, according to The Guardian. The few can act. But they don’t. The rest of us watch in horror.

Dontcha just love these two? And Gagliardi as well.

A free and independent press is not a luxury in a democracy, but its foundation. Without journalists to question power, truth withers, and tyranny finds fertile ground.

Amen! 🙏

An Earth Day message from the late Pope Francis: “‘God always forgives; we humans sometimes forgive, and sometimes not; the earth never forgives.’ The earth does not forgive: if we have despoiled the earth, its response will be very ugly.”

This is Pippi a few nights ago. But I had to say goodbye to her Sat. evening. Vet discovered she had bone cancer. She was in terrible pain with no prospects for recovery. She lived to be 17 and a half. All but a few weeks of those years were magnificent. She was the best dog. She was pure love. 💔❤️🩷

People spend a lot of time wondering why the left is worse at using independent media to control the national narrative. A useful exercise is to ask why the left is also worse at selling snake oil and pyramid schemes, because I think the reasons are basically exactly the same.

Watching Shermichael Singleton and Scott Jennings on Abby Phillip’s evening CNN broadcast is an ever-increasing display of the frightening Foxification of a formerly mainstream news outlet that once attempted to adhere to truth-telling principles.

I'm seeing grown-ass adults marvel at how high stocks jumped today - they must think their mom actually vanished when she played "peek-a-boo."

The stock market is tanking so badly it almost feels like we are being governed by someone who went bankrupt six tim— Oh.

BREAKING: Foreign-born leader comes to Oval Office, dressed down in a disrespectful manner, having already received billions from America, asking for American taxpayers to keep paying him more billions, subsidizing him for years to come:
