The push to criminalize forms of nonviolent disobedience as civil terrorism comes amid a broader Trump administration effort to crack down on leftist organizations, causes, and social movements, while recasting acts of nonviolent civil disobedience as potential crimes.👇 archive.ph/2026.06.02-1...

No living US president has had their face on US currency in 150 years since Congress passed a law banning it. Because that’s what dictators and autocrats do.

Just insane. New Jersey Gov Mikie Sherrill says DHS just denied state health inspectors full access to Delaney Hall. She's calling for it to be shut down.

Another super blinkey afternoon for gramps. Poor guy is just operating on fumes

BREAKING: I'm suing Todd Blanche and the DOJ to STOP the $1.8B slush fund. The Justice Department violated the Administrative Procedures Act when it established the fund, and it must be set aside. You can read my complaint here: www.muellershewrote.com/p/breaking-i...

Former federal judge John Jones on Slush fund: This lawsuit essentially—there was no report of a settlement. It was just a discontinuance of the suit, and then comes the settlement thereafter. In my experience—you don’t do that unless you’re trying to keep something from the presiding judge.

60 Minutes confirms Iran is bypassing the US blockade and exporting 100,000 more barrels of oil per day than before the war. Most of it is reportedly going to China.

Journalist Katie Phang is suing the U.S. Justice Department over the Epstein files. Her lawsuit names acting Attorney General Todd Blanche and accuses the DOJ of failing to fully release the documents required under the Epstein Files Transparency Act.

Poverty is a policy choice. Concentrated wealth is a policy choice. Inequality is a policy choice. None of it is natural or inevitable. Remember: We have the power to build a system that serves the many, not the powerful few.

I keep telling y’all, he’s never leaving. The symbolism here is crazy work! A glowing golden shield protecting the White House like a king’s palace. Satellites, missiles, crosses, heavenly light from the sky, all centered around one man who sees himself as the seat of devine power.

So let’s get something straight about the unhoused: California is expected to carry a massive share of America’s homelessness crisis, then gets mocked for struggling under the weight of a problem that clearly extends far beyond Los Angeles. 🧵

For decades, the IRS has been required to audit every sitting president annually; a critical safeguard to ensure no president has a secret financial stake in betting against the American people they swore to serve. Every president accepted those audits without question. - Until now.

We are very far off the cliff, folks. @CBS should be avoided entirely. Shame on them.

For two years, Mike Johnson refused to hang the plaque on the wall honoring police officers who defended the Capitol on J6 against a mob of violent rioters, even though a law was passed to mandate it. But he supports paying over a billion dollars to the criminal rioters.

SEN. TILLIS (R): “These people don't deserve restitution. Many of them deserve to be in prison. This is just stupid on stilts. Republicans need to speak up. This is beyond the pale… This is bad policy, bad timing, bad politics.” (H/T @acyn.bsky.social )

REUTERS: “Enrique Tarrio, Proud Boys leader sentenced ‌to 22 years for seditious conspiracy over the January 6, 2021 riot, said he planned to get between $2 & $5 million.” We are so far off the cliff. 🇺🇸 www.reuters.com/legal/govern...

There is not a single insurrectionists MFer who beat a cop that should get a penny of our money. Not one. And the people making this decision will all be appointed by Blanche and will meet in secret. This is an impeachable offense by Blanche.

The most corrupt president in the history of the world and it’s not close.

Thomas Massie: “Today is the six month anniversary of the Epstein Transparency Act. We’ve taken out two dozen CEOs, an ambassador, a prince, a prime minister, a minister of culture, that was just six months. I’ve got seven months left in Congress.” video courtesy @acyn.bsky.social

A judge in California ruled the Kars4Kids jingle can no longer be broadcast there, finding the nonprofit violated false advertising laws. The funds don’t go to needy children. Instead, the organization bought a $6.5 million building in Israel and uses the donations to send Jewish teenagers there.

53% of Project 2025 — done. 80% of the public lands agenda — done. The author of the playbook — runs the budget. The guy who said he'd never heard of it hired the author. Read that twice. www.jackhopkinsnow.com

Disgraceful. Absolutely disgraceful. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Ah, yes. Fewer air traffic controllers is the answer. www.reuters.com/business/wor...

I stopped watching CBS a long time ago!! Please Share!

Straight-up admitting it’s all for show. Unbelievable stuff.

I cannot emphasize this enough: everything we are seeing right now with voting rights, and especially the racist gerrymandering we’re seeing in the South, makes complete sense if you remember it was all in Project 2025. This was part of the plan. It’s white supremacy and too many ignored it.

We are running the razor’s edge on a world war. I hope people understand that. I swear to god, it would help not to have the most dumbshit regime in charge but maybe that’s how it works.

John Roberts is a moderate. But only if you’re a white supremacist.

Imagine an America where funding all public schools is a priority, so that the children in communities that some politicians have shortchanged get the resources they need to thrive. Support Democrats up and down the ballot who will fight for us.

Two years in & they’re still blaming Biden for everything instead of governing. That’s not leadership….that’s deflection! When you inherit power, you also inherit responsibility! Americans deserve solutions, not excuses! #SheShed #GOPLies #Accountability #TrumpWorstPresidentEver

I like FBI Directors with prior experience in law enforcement but WITHOUT their own personalized branded bourbon. #CallMeOldFashoined

For years, the MAGA faithful raged against the left’s supposed creeping culture of cancellation. Now, Trump's targeting of his enemies has begun to unsettle even his most loyal media allies.

New maps drawn up by Tennessee Republicans, with input from the Trump administration, will cut Memphis into three districts instead of one. via @tennesseelookout.com www.newsfromthestates.com/article/tenn...

Senate Republicans have added a billion dollars to a must-pass immigration bill for President Trump’s East Wing ballroom, which was supposed to be financed entirely with private donations. buff.ly/lyRIbA0

In all, at least 75 career federal officials who’d played important roles in elections have left, been fired or been reassigned. In their place are roughly two dozen people Trump has installed in positions that could affect elections.

BREAKING: Democrats just held control of the Michigan Senate! Sen.-elect Greene is ready to fight for all Michiganders, help lower the cost of living, and expand opportunities for all.

Americans who fail to organise and take action are not only digging the grave of their own civil liberties and human rights, but those of their children, grandchildren and quite possibly great grandchildren.

I’m sure the 22,000+ sailors still stranded in the Gulf are thrilled to know that 'Project Freedom' is now 'Project Maybe Next Week' while we wait for an agreement that is definitely, totally, 100% almost signed.

Chad Bianco’s candidacy went up in 🔥 tonight. ANTONIO VILLARAIGOSA: “You’re an Oath Keeper. We all know that.” CHAD BIANCO: “I’m very proud of it. I don’t think you know what an Oath Keeper is.” For the record: the Oath Keepers is a far-right extremist white supremacist militia group.

Minnesota charged white supremacist Jake Lang with felony property damage after he vandalized a “Prosecute ICE” sculpture at the state Capitol. It’s a state case, so no presidential pardon is coming to bail him out this time.

Entire towns leveled; schools destroyed; journalists killed in targeted strikes; solar panels powering water stations demolished. Israel's defense minister says the approach is modeled on Gaza, where the goal was "leaving vast areas uninhabitable and preventing those displaced from returning home."

Blanche on Comey: "This is not just about a single Instagram post. This is about a body of evidence that the grand jury collected over 11 months."

NEW: Democrat Quentin Wiltz has won the mayoral race in Pearland, Texas, a Republican-leaning suburb of Houston that has consistently voted for Trump since 2016. This is a flip from 🔴 to 🔵.

But according to the Trump admin and paid MAGA influencers, JetBlue which has $8 billion in debt would have saved Spirit from their own problems and the spike in jet fuel costs caused by Trump.
