BREAKING NEWS: Actual facts appear for the first time on "Truth" Social.

Standing with the artists canceling their appearances at the Kennedy Center. This isn’t about careers or politeness — it’s about refusing to legitimize injustice. When institutions demand silence and “business as usual,” walking away is the only honest choice.

Pedestal Magazine was on of the first places to give my work a home after my MFA, and I’m so grateful to have a poem in their final issue! thepedestalmagazine.com/zachariah-cl...

Keep 'em coming

So excited to have a poem in the upcoming issue of @prairie-schooner.bsky.social!

The people of Chicago won Trump, Kristi Noem and ICE lost Not only did Greg Bovino and his agents leave the city in disgrace A judge ruled that they must release as many as 615 unjustly detained immigrants Plus-they must stop pressuring immigrants to voluntarily leave Never Stop Resisting

Thank you to Sand Hills Magazine for including my cosmic horror story, “The Waters of Hell,” in their latest issue! sandhillsmagazine.com/store/p/sand...

In my brain's operating system the thumbnail for Joyce Carol Oates is her nightmare feet pic so for that alone I will never "hand it to her" but I must respect an incredible burn GOOD LORD

Did Elon even know who Joyce Carol Oates WAS a week ago? ...does he know now?

Teaching at multiple universities means I have much less free time than I would ideally like. I will use EVERY SECOND OF THAT TIME TO GO DOOR TO DOOR FOR ANYONE WHO PRIMARIES THE SEDITIOUS 8 OR SCHUMER. No more cowards in elected office. @kaine.senate.gov @fetterman.senate.gov @schumer.senate.gov

Fck John Fetterman…. I mean good morning, fck John Fetterman

Primary every feckless corporate dem.

The coordinated nature of this—none are facing voters in 2026—means that either Schumer approved it or failed in his job as Senate Majority Leader to stop it. Dems voting "no" get zero credit until they demand a change in leadership. Schumer out as Leader, Durbin out as Whip.

Senators on the brink of retirement who lived full, wealthy lives and never feared the loss of their own healthcare voting for their constituents to die from their inability to afford the same is treasonous

An agreement to agree to do a later vote is NOT an enforceable contract so what in the actual hell are Americans getting out of this deal??

The DNC Chair stands with House Dems to block this deal. As always, it's feckless leadership and cowardice in the Senate that fucks everything up.

Run them out of office, let's get progressives in there that aren't gonna do dumb shit like this .

@fetterman.senate.gov @kaine.senate.gov @shaheen.senate.gov @durbin.senate.gov McCain on his deathbed voted to save ACA. You are not helping citizens. You hurt children You hurt indigent You hurt federal gov employees Did you guarantee back pay for all feds? Rehire fired?

Y’all. I don’t think they have the votes yet.

i think this is key. taking the deal would amount to taking the blame. it would turn a clear political victory into an unambiguous defeat.

Why has Dominion Voting Systems been settling defamation lawsuits with Trump allies who falsely claimed the company stole the 2020 election? Because Dominion has just been bought by a company run by a former GOP election official. Be warned.

Great book mail today!!! @undertow.bsky.social

i desperately want everyone involved in the destruction of USAID to have to, st the very least, answer to the american people for the suffering and misery they have caused apnews.com/article/myan...

And Trump’s threat not to pay backpay to federal workers is only going to make this worse‼️

Trump is much weaker than he looks. He's always been a bloated, sloppy, low-IQ flaccid failure. Now he’s a bloated, sloppy, low-IQ flaccid failure desperately trying to distract from all that by attacking US cities with our military and sending his Justice Dept after political opponents.

Stephen Miller "Blowing" up tRump every morning

On ICE raids and attacks in Chicago, local reporters have consistently shown up the national outlets attempting to report remotely. Locals continue to break story after story even as the nationals are summarizing govt press releases. They've shown physical bravery in very dangerous circumstances.

“More than cleverness we need kindness and gentleness… Don’t despair, the misery that is now upon us is but the passing of greed—the bitterness of men who fear the way of human progress. The hate of men will pass and dictators die.” — Charlie Chaplin

BREAKING: Roy Cooper just announced that he’s running for Senate in North Carolina. This makes NC our best Senate pickup opportunity in 2026. Let’s flip it. secure.actblue.com/donate/votse...

They’ve gone from “Trump is going to bring down the world wide pedophile ring” to “it’s perfectly normal for 40 year olds to have sex with kids” pretty damn quick. TBH, “this was normal until Jerry Springer came along” is a take no one had on their bingo card.

It’s mind boggling He kidnapped immigrant kids Let 400,000 people die due to COVID Literally started a coup Stripped healthcare from 10 million Americans by slashing Medicaid And took food from starving kids by cutting SNAP But it might ultimately be the Epstein scandal that brings Trump down

I think it’s worth noting this piece generated the most unsubscribes I’ve seen in a while, and the newsletter version had the lowest open rate in many months. These horrors persist in part because too many people go to great pains to avoid them.

A video of Florida deputies punching and dragging a Black man from his car during a traffic stop has caused national outrage, with civil rights lawyers accusing authorities of fabricating their arrest report.

FRIEDMAN: Is it accurate that at least 80% of the calls that went to FEMA call centers on July 7 went unanswered? RICHARDSON: When the tragedy struck, ah-- F: It's a yes or not question RICHARDSON: The majority of the calls were answered at the call centers F: That's not what the report says

www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/courage-ag... Good news of the day from Scott Dworkin. Great, quick read. Protests in Brazil, and Lula The President is standing firm against Trump's bluster. Plus, ICE is getting bolder, but taking some legal hits and more #MAGAFascistshaveGotToGo

"Jonathan Caravello...was reportedly “piled on by multiple agents all at once” as “he tried to help a man in a wheelchair” who was having difficulty moving after...[ICE] agents threw canisters of tear gas" our colleague is still missing as of the last info I got dailynous.com/2025/07/12/p...

So excited to have a poem in one of my favorite journals, @strangehorizons.bsky.social strangehorizons.com/wordpress/po...

The republican party is full of genuinely evil people. They don't need to be coerced into being pieces of shit.

a little on the nose but well played, beaches, well played
