🤣🤣 Happy 4th!

By Nick Anderson.

As you party on the 4th of July, it's important to take a moment to remember that Spuds Mackenzie's vital role in the signing of the Declaration of Independence. (Bud Light calendar, 1990)

It’s 2026 and we have the technology to make drone shows but we’re still doing the big sky explosions thing that triggers both vets and pets? I thought we almost all respected and/or loved those two demographics. I think it’s time to move on; it’s been 250 years.

The MAGA regime are planning to cut down a historic grove of Cherry Trees in DC along with a very popular bike path and picnic area to make way for the orange felon’s new trashy golf course and it’ll be paid for with tax dollars. Soulless fucking monsters.

We ALL do….🥺

This July 4th, families are drowning in higher prices at grocery checkout. But Trump “loves the inflation” — and has no plan to lower your costs.

I have got to say that this is the chonkiest Darkseid I've ever seen

Spot the difference

Statement from Counsel for Olympian Davey Hearn:

Very thankful for this letter to Becky Pepper-Jackson (the 16 year-old trans girl SCOTUS ruled against yesterday) from James Dale, a gay man whose expulsion from the Boy Scouts was upheld by the Supreme Court in 2000.

Trump’s income in 2025 topped $2 billion — a 233% increase from 2024. It's not just stock trades. Over half of his gains came from his crypto business, which foreign countries have funneled money into to curry favor as he deregulates the industry. We must not become numb to this corruption.

"We gotta put a big bed sheet over the Statue of Liberty. It should be a white sheet. And have a point over the top of her head. And two eyeholes. And Instead of a burning torch, she should be holding a burning cross. That would make the Statue of LIB-erty for more acceptable to godly Republicans."

We are at North Korea levels of corruption. We are no longer a functional democracy.

They’re going to call you a socialist regardless. So be a socialist.

He fought it to the Supreme Court. He lost. He’s a rapist for the rest of history.

Guaranteed: 1) Black girls will be harassed and demanded to be tested over and over again regardless of how competitive they are. 2) Winners from public schools will be relentlessly hounded by the parents and coaches of losers at private schools, with the goal of making them quit the sport.

Come with me and you'll be / in a world of abject exploitation

A Republican congressman vanished for months because he received a diagnosis for depression and he was allowed to heal, rest, and recover without losing his job, something that cannot be said about the millions of other Americans who also experience depression symptoms. We're asked to walk it off.

5-4 instead of 9-0. Just a completely illegitimate institution at this point.

Last decision of the term: birthright citizenship survives and Trump's EO goes down by a 5-4 decision. Roberts, Barrett and the three liberals. Beer justice concurs in part and dissents in part. Gorsuch, Thomas, Alito would throw out every kid of immigrants if they could. SUPREME COURT REFORM NOW.

You would think “your mom using AI to make it look like you were given a birthday party” is the most pathetic thing you’d ever see but then you remember he runs this account himself

Your tax dollars went to pay someone to spend actual time building this. Once again, I refer you to

when it zoomed out I gasped

Knicks fans bet so much on their team during the Finals that the house actually lost the week of the finals — by tens of millions

A lot of discourse today about the failure of superhero movies, but it needs to be stressed that Star Wars and Masters of the Universe underperformed the same way. We need to stop making movies for 50yr old white men and make them for Gen Z. They're going. Obsession is in its 7th week in the top 5.

‘Say yes and never do it’ Mel Brooks knew how to deal with the studios

Democratic Socialism

I saw this post on reddit earlier today and I can't stop thinking about it. This would be a killer @gailsimone.bsky.social book.

Poor Matt Damon has to sit in that thing until the movie comes out.

“If Democrats win, Congress will do its job again” is a wild message from the current Speaker of the House

Getting rid of well-respected high ranking members of the military in order to install loyalists is what you do when you are planning to do the wrong thing and want to make sure the military complies with your orders.

If you're still using Sticker Mule btw, you should not do that

Donald Trump continues his roadmap laid out in Project 2025 to abolish the Education Department — and it starts with messing with special education and children with disabilities.

pretty devastating dunk at the end of this paragraph

What an honor! I don't have words.

helpful coverage from @elpais.com english.elpais.com/usa/2025-08-...

TikTok's latest illegal 'life hack' seems to be 'dispute credit card transactions for free stuff' and legality aside I am here to beg you: Do not do this to small businesses. It really fucks them over in ways you may not be aware of beyond stealing from them (which is, to be clear, what this is).🧵

“They become rich.” That’s Trump’s actual reasoning for killing housing relief. He made billions off housing and he wants to protect that market — for people who already own. If you don’t own? You don’t count. His words, not ours. #TrumpsHousingCrisis

Post the wins. Congrats, @katiephang.bsky.social!

Portmanteaus are fun! Ben+Jennifer = Bennifer. Brad+Angelina = Brangelina. Peeta+Katnis = Penis. Hilarious! Did you know that if you foster a hospice animal, they call it fospice? No, really. I just learned that. Now you know it, too.
