Republicans are heading into the July 4 recess with the economy becoming an even bigger political liability. The U.S. added just 57,000 jobs in June, far below May’s 129,000, while wages rose only 3.5% — still failing to keep pace with inflation. Economic anxiety is growing as the midterms approach.

America voted for this administration. I’m lost for words.

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

This is what an actual true patriot looks like. God bless you and protect you for your courage!

I’m going to take a wild guess and say that not one dime went to veterans.

can’t believe a narcissist is being so publicly humiliated by a reflecting pool

Want to know what dilutes patriotism? A system that’s rigged against the American. And who can fault Americans for looking at a president flying around in a $400 million Qatari jet or making $2.2 billion in his first year in office and thinking ‘hey this place doesn’t actually seem all that fair.’

Today, I voted YES to release the names of Members of Congress who used taxpayer dollars to settle sexual misconduct and other misconduct cases in Congress. No more abuses of power and no more hiding behind a system that shields perpetrators. We will always fight for justice for survivors—period.

If there was any doubt that Gov Jared Polis’ legacy is freeing Tina Peters, the NYT reports Polis just fired the clemency board members who revealed he overruled their unanimous wishes www.nytimes.com/2026/07/01/u...

Chief Justice John Roberts' legacy is a far-right Supreme Court that prioritizes expanding corporate power above all else. I warned of his right-wing nature when I testified against his nomination in 2005.

Friends, a madman is in charge of the country — but almost no Republican member of Congress, no major CEO or university president or head of a major foundation seems willing to sound the alarm. These people are all cowards. Where are America's leaders? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MC0vKzRmPos

We don’t have a government. We have a crime family posing as one.

I’ve worked trafficking cases before. I’ve been a journalist long enough to see horrific things. My husband was gunned down in front of me. My mom suffered a serious brain injury, rendering her primarily nonverbal and paralyzed. I am many things, but I am not easily shaken. 🧵

Worst. SCOTUS. Ever.

What does it mean when a third of the Court wants to blow up the Constitution?

If 4 out of 9 supposedly expert mathematicians says that a triangle has four sides, it isn't a 'win for geometry'. @joshtpm.bsky.social #BirthrightCitizenship

👇🎯 Don’t. Print. Lies. In. The. Newspapers. Flagrant violations of the Constitution’s Emoluments Clause are not something that “defies long-held tradition.” They are flagrant violations of the Constitution. What is journalism, anyway?

But Congress won’t. November is coming.

Clarence Thomas says the 14th Amendment should be read narrowly because it was written for formerly enslaved people. By that logic, the 2nd Amendment was written for muskets, not AR-15s. Funny how that kind of originalism only shows up when it's convenient.

American Exceptionalism

here is what i think: we're not consumers or spectators, we are participants with agency. you should not hope that democrats will do anything. you must work to force them to do the right thing. the odds are long, but we are far from the first americans to face long odds. we will win.

Mitch McConnell should resign Immediately…..

SCOTUS closed out its term on Tuesday after striking down Trump’s mail voting attack. But we’re not out of the woods yet. The Court’s decision will encourage Republicans to redouble their efforts to pass new legislation restricting voting. Here's what they're plotting:

I’m mad about today. I’m mad that justices can’t do the bare minimum to uphold the Constitution. I’m mad that the law and our history, which I have dedicated so much of my life to, is an inconvenience than an inheritance to many. I’m mad that the academy, which I love, rewards and enables it.

Everyone should be extremely concerned that birthright citizenship was 5-4 and not unanimous.

With this ruling, the birthright issue is not going away. The right hasn't really begun *organizing* around getting rid of the citizenship clause. Like Roe, this will be their fight for a generation. And if the Democrats just say "we won" and ignore it, like Roe, the Republicans will eventually win.

I would like to again thank the voters who insisted the Supreme Court wasn’t that big of a deal in 2016. Congrats! You did it! You showed that woman you hate!

Rep. Tom Kean (R-N.J.) voted to give tax breaks to billionaires and pay for it through cuts to Medicaid -- cutting people's healthcare, increasing cost of medications including those that treat mental health issues, and closing hospitals.

even worse! actually 5-4. My God.

This country was one person's vote away this morning from putting any birthright citizen in danger of being deported tomorrow. We are so much closer to the abyss than we think. Man oh man.

Every Fox News live shot today from Trump's post-rapture-like fair on the National Mall has been hilarious. Here's a supercut:

Critics of the Supreme Court say that today's Slaughter ruling will give future presidents far too much power. They're wrong—the court will reverse itself as soon as there's a Democrat in the White House.

Our independent federal regulatory agencies were created to protect the public from corporate harms. The only reason to end these protections is to give corporate America even higher profits by shifting the risks of harms to individual people. The shame of the John Roberts court.

This one is especially pathetic

need to start thinking now about a full package of judicial reforms: new justices, new circuits, new district courts, ethics reforms, docket reforms, and transparency reforms.
