Cartoonists Are The Only Real Journalists Left In The USA.

The internet can be noisy, but meaningful conversations still matter. I appreciate spaces like Bluesky where people can share ideas. I support the Democratic Party because I believe democracy needs active citizens, not silent observers.

Tough night for US fans… 💔🇺🇸 The score hurts, but the passion remains. We stand with our team through every high and every low. ⚽❤️

I just met a new friend, and we're both dog lovers, so I'm sharing my dog ​​with you.

The American Kestrel—North America's smallest falcon—is famous for its ability to "wind-hover". By angling its body into the wind, rapidly flapping its wings, and making subtle tail adjustments, the bird stays completely stationary in midair to spot and ambush prey like insects and small rodents.

I’m SO proud to call USAF member Jason Watson a friend of mine. He was arrested yesterday for protesting in his uniform against the administration. Bravo sir. #Impeach #Convict #Remove.

Literally extortion by a mobster in a projection racket.

I haven’t seen *any* coverage of this and worry people have just become numb (or are too distracted by the World Cup, Knicks, etc.)

In other news: If you are russian and living in Crimea, you should get the fuck out NOW! While you still can. Russia has LOST Crimea and is blaming Putin. Zelenskyy has approved a 40-day SBU operation to increase pressure on Russia and push it toward ending the war using drones. The end is near.

Anytime any respectable journalist mentions our two chief negotiators with Iran, Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff, they should note both receive sizeable paychecks from Middle Eastern nations with deep equities in these talks. It is a fundamental corruption.

Happy Father’s Day, New York City!

This year, we’re celebrating some of New York’s Dads whose children followed them into service as City workers.

I’m for the war ending. But this deal - which boils down to the U.S. paying Iran billions to open the Strait - is final proof of how predictably disastrous this war was.

It was great joining Njideka Akunyili Crosby—a gifted Nigerian-born, Los Angeles-based artist—to unveil our first portrait together. This piece reflects so many chapters of Michelle and my story, and we’re thrilled that it will be on display at the Obama Presidential Center starting this Juneteenth.

Few better ways to celebrate this city — and the World Cup — than cheap eats. That's why starting June 11th through July 19th, New Yorkers can celebrate the World Cup with $26 meal deals at hundreds of restaurants across the five boroughs, and discover what makes New York City the world's city.

I wouldn’t be where I am today without the love and support that Michelle has poured into me over the years. Her story — from her South Side roots to the White House and beyond — is a central part of the Obama Presidential Center.

The Knicks were on a 13-game winning streak until this thing slithered in. He shut the city down, got booed, fell asleep, & stunk up the place. Stay at one of your clubs or the White House. This obnoxious creature causes nothing but chaos and, as Rick Wilson says, ETTD. He probably jinxed them too.

What 80 year old wants a UFC wrestling match for his birthday, especially when one is President during a war they provoked? Is it me? 🤔 DC is safe? I think not.

This miserable piece of garbage wants to show up at the Knicks game to ruin the evening for all the fans and the players. NYers should provide an entirely hostile environment and make sure he leaves before the game even starts. F*ck him.

Democrats win when we focus on healthcare, climate action, education, and workers' rights. That's what voters actually care about. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...
