This is all fine and dandy, but we still haven't forgotten that unredacted Epstein Files haven't been released in accordance to the law.

ICE fatally shot a man in Houston yesterday. Agents arrested a nun on her way to mass. An Afghan who helped the U.S. military died in ICE detention, one of at least 21 people to die in detention this year. The headlines have moved on, but Trump is still waging his reign of terror.

NO matter how much the orange pedophile embarrasses the United States again, or how he proves he is just Putin’s useful lil bitch… A Majority Of Americans Stand With Ukraine. 🇺🇸🇺🇦 #NATO

The Birth Society post was first shared by @mattbinder.bsky.social. No media has picked it up as a story. I took a quick look at Gebbia's feed for the last few weeks, and its the second time he boosted the Birchers. The guys brain has been cooked on X. For example, his take on women's basketball:

🎉WIN: A federal appeals court decision could make it harder for the DOJ to obtain states’ voter rolls in time to help them purge voters. The DOJ has yet to win a single court order to obtain unredacted statewide voter data.

It is INSANE that Senator Mitch McConnell is virtually brain dead in the hospital, and Republicans are content to leave it that way indefinitely. His wife is in China, just DAYS after he received CPR, so nobody with power of attorney? Something ain't right here

🇳🇴 Norway manager Stale Solbakken: “Bad bad bad bad bad decision by FIFA that will hurt the World Cup. Not good for the sport. If they beat Belgium it will always have that extra thing about it. What happens with the next Red Card?” (From @bbcsport)

As of today, there are only 24 days that the House will be in session between now and Nov 3. The GOP in that time will not be focused on helping people with skyrocketing costs. The GOP's ONLY focus will be rigging the election so the GOP can hold onto power. We must make sure that doesn't happen.

“What kind of man would cheat at this golf?” 😂

I'm going to KEEP talking about how Florida Senator Rick Scott, the RICHEST man in all of Congress DEFRAUDED Medicare & is trying to CUT Social Security. Will you join me?🤚

Another genius parody, Randy!

The Declaration of Independence was signed in Philly, August 2nd, 1776. We celebrate it on July 4th. This 250th year is spent in protest. ✊🏻🔥

As I recall, Donald's evangelical base *really* didn't like it the last time he depicted himself as Jesus. Indeed, it was one of the few times they called him out. So keep doing these outrageous things, you sick, damaged person. Can't wait to hear that this is you as a crucified doctor.

Early in Trump's first term, David Frum wrote that every time Trump and MAGA say "the deep state" you should hear "rule of law," then it'll make more sense. That stuck with me. And I thought of it again as an unqualified and unconfirmed director of national intelligence conducts political purges.

Mamdani: "As we mark 250 years ... we see the wealthiest country -- one where children go to sleep hungry while the world's first trillionaire hungers for more ... we see masked agents terrorizing our streets, eating food cooked by undocumented neighbors before spiriting them away in unmarked vans"

BREAKING on MS NOW: Dozens of intel officials have started receiving notice of their terminations under Trump's unqualified acting DNI, Bill Pulte. The individuals are officials "who they believe are deep state" and whom leadership claims have not provided complete pictures of available intel.

Jack Smith on MS NOW: "I'm very concerned of what's going to happen in the next election, absolutely."   "I think the state attorney generals have a tremendous role to play here … And I would also say that I think a thing that all of us can do is support election workers and election officials."

MacFarlane: What's alleged here by Democrats on the House natural resources committee, Pamela, is that there was a hostile takeover by Freedom 250 of the congressionally approved America 250. Freedom 250 is Trump aligned.

MSNOW put together collection of clips of Fox anchors talking in front of the Great American State Fair.

Today, our friend, active duty USAF Major Jason Watson, was arrested on the Capitol steps while standing by his oath to the Constitution, defending this nation against all enemies, foreign and domestic. Major Watson is a patriot and a hero. #DOOR #ProudBlue #Demvoice1 @defendersofourrepublic.org

Trump: "I even had a conversation with Theodore Roosevelt. I said, 'What do you think about the Panama Canal? Do you consider that your greatest achievement and how do you feel about the fact that the Democrats gave the Panama Canal away to Panama for $1?'"

POCAN: Do you know how much we've spent on the war on Iran so far? VOUGHT: We've spent about 30,000,000,000 P: People are saying it's more like $100b V: I'm just telling you what I heard from the Dept of War P: I'm just going to remember June 30, 2026, you're saying $30b is what we spent

There’s a special kind of irony in watching the “shall not be infringed” crowd twist themselves into knots insisting birthright citizenship shouldn’t exist. It’s amazing how flexible “absolute” rights become when they’re someone else’s.

Reporting on the SCOTUS birthright case doesn't reflect how alarming it is that the ruling was so close. It also glosses over the danger of a Roberts Court that attacks voting rights, minority protections, and campaign finance laws — all while making it easier for corporations to poison us. Hello?

Still on the hunt for the answer: How many childrens hospitals, or anything like that, has Elon Musk funded and built since he is now the richest man in the world? I mean, he's an immigrant, and should be grateful for the opportunity we gave him, and want to give back. Right?

UNFUN FACT: The 2026 FIFA World Cup features 48 teams co-hosted by the US, Canada, and Mexico. Of the 48 participating nations, the United States is the only one without a universal health care system.

If you owe a woman $5 million for sexual assault, you also owe the country your resignation.

As the nation prepares to mark the 250th anniversary of our independence from a king, the Supreme Court and our current president are doing everything possible to resurrect a king in America. Be warned. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/the-end-of-independent-agencies

the marquee attraction at Trump's fair today was a pancake eating contest where the contestants were gagging and nearly puking. 'Murica!

Bob Odenkirk is a national treasure. Take 44 seconds and watch. www.youtube.com/watch?v=z0rB...

In case anyone is under the impression that things are getting back to normal here in the U.S., yesterday 🧊 grabbed a fruit seller off the street in broad daylight in my community. This was only one of several kidnappings in the area yesterday. Don’t let the circus distract you from the ongoing harm

Everyone is talking about Trump’s mock up arch at the Great American State Fair, so I filmed it from top to bottom and front to back for everyone who can’t see it in person.

"Speaking as an early American historian who spent decades immersed in what the founding generation thought about political power — specifically about executive power — this presidency is entirely out of bounds and beyond anything the founding folk could have conceived of." — @jbf1755.bsky.social

The economy sucks because the wealthy and corporations have rigged it to make themselves richer. The wealthy and corporations are richer because the economy sucks. The only way we're going to start getting out of this mess is by taxing the rich and ending Citizens United.

"A growing number of conservative leaders are starting to argue that the only way to stop women from ending their pregnancies could be to arrest them." If you voted for Trump, you did this. www.nytimes.com/2026/06/24/u...

The irony of Republicans establishing Sharia-like laws while railing against the imaginary threat of Sharia Laws…

June 26, 2026

NEW: The Trump administration is asking SCOTUS to bless its massive expansion of ICE detention for people who have resided in the U.S. for years without incident. District judges have overwhelmingly rejected ICE's approach, but appeals courts are split. www.politico.com/news/2026/06...

SCOTUS handed down 4 major rulings this week. Corporate media covered each in isolation, buried in legal jargon, stripped of stakes. That ends here. Four assaults on human rights. One clear message: corporations and the powerful win, everyone else loses. Here is my non-legalese analysis.

11 years ago today, the Supreme Court recognized marriage equality as the law of the land. While the powers of hate may still be on the march, Minnesota will continue to stand as a firewall against any and all attacks on your personal freedoms.

The tyranny of Zohran Mamdani using tax dollars to provide services benefitting the people paying taxes chill me to the bone and demonstrate the rank selfishness of his political project, “we pay the taxes so we should get something out of it” Self-absorbed egotism, that’s all it is.

BREAKING: Alligator Alcatraz has officially closed. A lot of outlets won’t report on this, but the Miccosukee Tribe played a key role in the fight.

Fauci needs to sue this man into bankruptcy, if only to dissuade the other inveterate liars of this administration.

NEW FROM ME: This morning, a federal judge in Maryland handed the DOJ its ninth defeat in a series of 31 cases the department has filed to gain access to state voter files. The DOJ has yet to win a single one. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/dojs...

There’s a lot to unpack with the Iran negotiations, but here are the big takeaways: Kushner is there to work out the best deal for his own business interests, not the best deal for the U.S. “He is a fundamentally corrupted actor in these negotiations.” - Chris Murphy 1/2

Trump is paying Iran at least $300 billion to open the strait. And he has to make sure it stays open through the midterms, or he’s fucked. Iran knows that. “We lost the war.” - Chris Murphy

🤥 He lies with every breath. It’s unreal how dumb he thinks we all are.

This animated short film, “MAN”was produced by Steve Cutts in 2012. This is us right now. I think about how the EPA has loosened regulations on chemicals and air pollutants, how the FDA approved flavored vapes, etc. I feel those aliens in the last scene. #Pinks

Ossoff: Because in our time, what those who build ballrooms and monuments to themselves, who rake in billions through foreign princes while the people's savings vanish, along with their hospitals, what they hate the most is when the people try to hold them accountable at the polls.
