So happy to see the servicemembers of the Ford CSG returning home! Congratulations on a successful deployment amid multiple extensions and challenging circumstances. Welcome home!

QUIGLEY: What group has 'extra rights'? TURNER: We want to go after real discrimination & not phantom discrimination Q: Who is being 'phantomly discriminated' against? T: We are going after real discrimination Q: I'm going to take a wild guess that you think LGBT people are getting extra rights

It was great joining @jamestalarico.bsky.social and @ginafortexas.bsky.social today in Texas. They're working hard to make a difference in the lives of all Texans, and will be able to do even more as your next Senator and Governor. Let’s get it done, Texas!

Survivor of Jeffrey Epstein breaks down in tears describing the moment she learned her name was revealed while the rich and powerful remained protected by redactions Roza: I kept my identity protected as Jane Doe. I woke up one day with my name mentioned over 500 times.

US politics has for decades been dominated by a party that is fiercely opposed to any concept of shared responsibility, of caring for our fellow citizens, and that foments a deep level of distrust that makes it ever harder to operate as a society. Paul Krugman open.substack.com/pub/paulkrug...

Breaking News: U.S. inflation shot up to a 3.8% annual rate in April, as the war in Iran raised energy prices and costs across the country.

TODAY: Help us make sure Republicans hear from constituents about their plan to shovel up to $70 billion more to ICE and Border Patrol. We’re contacting voters in key states and districts to connect them with their GOP Members of Congress.

Mamdani has demonstrated something that Democrats have largely forgotten. You can't just do good things for voters and expect to be rewarded for it. You have to tell them about it, over and over again. You have to advertise your work in office just as much as you did on the campaign to win it.

VAN HOLLEN: Have you ordered polygraph tests of members of your team to determine how that story came about? KASH PATEL: The FBI conducts polygraph tests all the time VAN HOLLEN: I'll take that as a yes

"I don't think about Americans' financial situation" 175 more days until you get to vote against this and every Republican who enabled it to go on this long.

Trump has publicly championed the U.S. steel industry, and yet, the White House just secured tens of millions of dollars worth of donated foreign steel for Trump's $400 million ballroom project.

President Trump said he does not know the contractor that is renovating the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool, after previously saying he spoke to a man he knew about it.

“One post even falsely attributed the strategy to Heather Cox Richardson, a political historian.” “That erroneous post was the first one Evans-Reber saw and forwarded. She later had to follow up with a disclaimer that Cox Richardson was not the author.” @hcrichardson.bsky.social

Perfect campaign ad for the upcoming Midterms. 👌

Here's an excerpt. Read the whole column and tell me what you think

They said it was just Bluesky panic: fears the GOP would try to cancel the 2026 midterms. Really? Across the South, FOUR elections have been halted or nullified so far in May "Southern change gonna come at last. Now your robes aren't white, but black" My new column www.inquirer.com/columnists/a...

Holy shit, the CIA is doing targeted assassinations in Mexico now, like, semi-officially:

🚨BREAKING: The U.S. Supreme Court (SCOTUS) has allowed Alabama to select a different map for this year’s congressional elections in a stunning, last-minute move to interfere with another state primary election that has already begun. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

DOGE-linked Jennica Pound publicly warned anti-ICE app GTFO ICE would "learn the hard way," and hours later nearly 18,000 users received messages claiming their locations and contacts were forwarded to the FBI, ICE, and Homeland Security. Totally normal data security stuff. 1/2

Alabama asked the Supreme Court for permission to abandon court-ordered maps and go back to using ones the Court ruled were in violation of the Voting Rights Act, just three years ago, in the wake of Callais. Today, the Supreme Court said yes. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

Disapproval of Trump's management of the economy hits 70%

So pleased to have fought for this funding to make our community safer.

Trump Admin has cut aid to Ukraine by roughly 99 percent and shamelessly cozied up to Putin. Even allowing Russia to benefit financially from our costly war with Iran. Good news: Ukraine is becoming more self-reliant and mounting a more effective defence against Russia. Slava Ukraini! #MEpolitics

A lie. A big one.

The president’s mental health is a global crisis.

You’ve probably had your limit at this point, please read this explanation of what happened yesterday and share it widely. It’s more important than ever to make sure people understand why we have to vote for democracy and we have to get started now if we want to be able to vote.

Any questions about why the GOP is desperately trying to cheat before the midterms?

This is important and happening today. @katiephang.bsky.social @muellershewrote.com @meidastouch.com @hcrichardson.bsky.social @jesscraven101.bsky.social

Over on Xitter, @harryjsisson.bsky.social (who seems not to post here anymore) catalogued one part of Trump's batshit meltdown overnight. Note how many of them focus on Trump's 2016 conspiracies, which are probably responses to Brennan and Comey appearing on MSNOW.

Senate Republicans on Monday defended their plan to include $1 billion for security funding for President Trump’s ballroom project as they prepared to take up a politically charged budget bill that faces stiff opposition from Democrats.

ICE agents are walking around with a list of 20 million people to detain in their pockets because of this Palantir database: www.404media.co/ice-agents-h...

AGUILAR: How many pages is the ceasefire? How do we know the ceasefire is active or not active without any documentation? HEGSETH: We know. It's evident that the ceasefire is in effect AGUILAR: So we just trust the president that it's active?

“.. Inflation is now eating up all wage gains for the first time in about three years. This is painful for Americans and a true financial squeeze.” CPI Inflation in past year: 3.8% Wage gains: in past year: 3.6%” @byheatherlong.bsky.social

One in five Americans lost their ACA health insurance because they couldn’t afford their premiums. Trump and MAGA Republicans killed the tax credits that made coverage more affordable. Now, American families are paying the price. We must restore the tax credits before more people become uninsured.

I had a great visit to Colonna Shipyard last week to hear more about the work they’re doing to support the Navy and meet with regional stakeholders to discuss how we can ensure Virginia remains the center of naval shipbuilding and repair.

The Palantir ICM + BI2 + Mobile Fortify pipeline is a staggering thing. Similar tools between Palantir and the FBI are also in the works. This level of surveillance transcends the current immigration focus.

"A Russian cargo ship likely carrying two nuclear reactors for submarines, possibly destined for North Korea, suffered a series of explosions and sank in unexplained circumstances, about 60 miles off the coast of Spain, a CNN investigation has found."
