It's heartbreaking to watch how beautiful and vibrant Mariupol was before russian occupiers turned it into a graveyard. His hometown, seen through the lens of photographer Viktor Diedov, who was murdered there in March 2022.

Ending Citizens United will go a long way to fixing politics... Montana is making this happen. Let's make it happen nationwide. We are not loud enough yet! #EndCitizensUnited #usDemocracy #voices4victory #dv1

Alice Augusta Ball found the cure for leprosy at 23. She died in a mysterious lab accident at 24. Arthur Dean stole her research, stole it and renamed it from "The Ball Method" to "The Dean Method." It took 90 years before her original research papers were found and she got the credit due to her.

I think if you're wobbly after a very high speed crash it should be mandatory concussion protocol. #MotoGP

NEWS: Bette Midler just released a remake of Woody Guthrie’s classic protest song “All You Fascists Bound to Lose,” updated to fit the current moment and urge action ahead of the midterms. You have to listen to this.

I recently saw Nikson Mathews say about Idaho’s bathroom bill that, “every single day, when I am out in public, I have to ask myself, do I feel like going to jail, or do I feel like being attacked?” So I asked him to write about it for @advocate.com. www.advocate.com/opinion/niks...

Everytime Donald Trump uses insider trading to make billions from crypto, oil or war it is not a victimless crime. Everyone with a 401k, on social security or who uses Dollars loses. Because these are all the things devalued by it. He's robbing YOU.

Barack Obama pays tribute to Robert Mueller, calling him one of the finest FBI directors in history and honoring his unwavering commitment to the rule of law

Robert Mueller, a Vietnam veteran with a bronze star for heroism, and a purple heart has passed away. Perhaps his biggest honor was trying to save our democracy. I REFUSE to let him be a punchline for our deranged president. Robert Mueller was a hero and may he rest in peace and watch over us. Amen.

LEE: I asked Chairman Comer, if Pam Bondi did not come, would he force her to or if he would move for contempt hearings as he did for other people who did not respond to our subpoena? Instead of answering as an adult, he said that I was “bitching”

FIREFLY!!!! It’ CRAZY but it might just work. #Firefly

HOLY SHIT. A dark money group, hidden behind a bunch of shell companies, is paying influencers thousands of dollars PER POST to attack @katmabu.bsky.social on social media a month before her election. Thank you to the people who declined the money and went forward with this. So who's behind this?

This is a GREAT point think on it He cannot comprehend people with principles, people with empathy and compassion. People with courage and dedication to things other than themselves. It is beyond him. He is a sick sick individual who should be nowhere near the levers of power.

"We can have democracy in this country, or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of a few, but we can't have both." –Justice Louis Brandeis

To all the radical women who have made the world better, especially those women who radicalized us, thank you.

Murphy: “I think it’s likely the U.S. carried out this attack on this school — I think it's unforgivable under any circumstances, but the fact that this was one of our 1st targeting decisions, that this mistake was made on the 1st day of war — I think speaks to the incompetence of our leadership”

Billionaires dumped $3 billion into 2024 election campaigns.

Johnson: I think what we are learning from the Epstein files was a well-coordinated act of treason. If you think about how they use blackmail to get policymakers to act outside of the best interests of this nation and our Constitution, that’s treason.

🚨 FOLLOW THE MONEY ICE and DHS are buying up warehouses across the country and turning them into detention centers. And somehow taxpayers keep paying top dollar for empty buildings. So… who’s getting rich? 💰

ICE has arrested and detained a Nashville journalist who reported stories critical of ICE. She’s married to a U.S. citizen and has been seeking asylum here after fleeing death threats in Colombia because of her journalism there. They’ve already sent her to Louisiana.

In case y'all have forgotten, this is what a REAL president sounds like. 🙌💪👏✊️👇

A clip from the moment Hillary Clinton found out Lauren Boebert took an unauthorized photo of her deposition: 'I'm done!'

I've seen nothing from Chuck Schumer or Hakeem Jeffries that tells me they object to this war, only that Trump didn't run it by them first. I'm taken back to their "Stand with Israel" rally where they stood arm in arm with Mike Johnson and Joni Ernst.

🎯🎯

Adorable. 😍

Former ICE lawyer Ryan Schwank: “I received secretive orders to teach new cadets to violate the Constitution.”

The most disturbing part is knowing ICE left a little girl alone and didn’t care. Annabella was six years old when her dad was detained by ICE while he was picking up their food order. She stayed inside, waiting. He never returned to her that day. 1/2

I don’t know who you are but what I know is you are a wonderful lady!!!

How is it possible that Kristi Noem still has this job. Imagine if you’re a family member or a shipmate of this guardsman. www.nbcnews.com/politics/imm...

“As the airplane took off, Epstein started touching me forcibly in between my legs, and I freaked out. I realized, this is not a modeling opportunity, I've been kidnapped. They whisked me away to the island. I was stuck there. They never arranged any modeling opportunities, I was completely conned."

Wow! This is some top-notch investigative journalism. The report claims the 3 million Epstein files released are only 2% of the total. The massive scale of what’s still missing is hard to comprehend.

I think the media understands the difference between e-bikes and illegal e-motos. They are intentionally conflating the difference between legal e-bikes and illegal e-motos to stoke fear and get clicks. It's could destroy the e-bike revolution if we don't find a way to stop it.

At this point, it’s hard not to assume they’re all compromised MAGA Republicans, establishment Republicans, Democrats, corporate Democrats. The only ones who don’t seem compromised are the few actually out there fighting for everyday people. And you can tell who they are by their actions.

Khanna: There were two rounds of redactions. There was the original FBI redactions… and they did a second round of redactions at the DOJ. What they’re showing members now is the unredacted version of the DOJ’s redactions—not the original FBI redactions. They’re in blatant violation of the law.

Emerging from his viewing of the UNRELEASED Epstein case files at Justice Dept, Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) says: "The Dept of Justice has been in a cover-up mode for months... trying to sweep the entire thing under the rug"

Many underestimate the scale of the war in Ukraine and fail to recognize that Russia is committing genocide. In Mariupol alone, the death toll over just 3 months may have exceeded the total deaths in Gaza over the entire war, despite a smaller population. Reflect on that

If you want to FINALLY watch Scott Bessent get pinned down on specifics about the illegal money laundering operation being conducted by the Trump admin from someone who knows WTF he’s talking about, this clip is your chance. Bessent gets destroyed.

Heads are going to explode 💥 Cato Institute just nuked the lie. Immigrants have cut U.S. deficits by $14.5 TRILLION since 1994, slashing the national debt by a third. All that “immigrants are bleeding us dry” noise? Absolute bullshit. 1/3

Big Oil "purchased solar and EV patents to ensure others couldn’t use them, solicited control of renewable markets and then abandoned them, and funded powerful institutions to promote false solutions, all while using trade groups to downplay the harms of fossil fuels, according to the complaint." 😠

granular, practical, well organized info here: www.wired.com/story/how-to...

DHS should be embarrassed that their ICE agent hires are so soft they can’t handle being videotaped, even while masked, so they resort to pepper spraying women at close range. And we should be proud of the Santa Barbara women who stood their ground anyway.

"When that man is dead and gone" A protest song about *checks notes* Adolf Hitler recorded eight years ago that Youtube randomly is recommending to people this week for no reason whatsoever 👀 www.youtube.com/watch?v=XDkh...

New NHTSA crash data, combined with Tesla’s new disclosure of robotaxi mileage, reveals Tesla’s autonomous vehicles are crashing at a rate much higher than human drivers, and that’s with a safety monitor in every car. Tesla has reported 9 crashes involving its robotaxi fleet in Austin, TX. /1
