Screwworms eradicated in the US in 1966. Measles eradicated in the US in 2000. Both are back because of this science denying administration.

Thomas Massie says the conspiracy theorists were right about Section 224 of the NDAA, which he says will merge the US military with the IDF. Massie says the provision is treasonous and warns that it will force the US to compromise its own security for Netanyahu's demands.

When a journalist finally pushes back on your lies to your face

PELLEY: “.. And about four hours after our deadline, Bari Weiss sends an email to my boss, Tanya Simon. Two of the things in the email include, can we make the protesters look more violent?” @nytimes.com #$PSKY www.nytimes.com/2026/06/07/m...

Former Ohio Congressional candidate Carl Setzer delivered a masterclass testimony against data centers on June 1. A clip:

Good job editors for being clear this is happening under Censorship Jay.

Here are the top 5 dogs of the week!

Shockingly, spending a lot of money to keep the National Guard away from their homes and families in order to stand around DC to make Trump look strong, has not reduced violent crime there. www.npr.org/2026/06/04/n...

“The rule is catastrophic… it means that cancer patients, including those in active treatment, could be forced to work the same number of hours as a healthy person — regardless of whether that’s physically possible, just to keep the health insurance coverage that they rely on to stay alive.”

BREAKING: The House Oversight Committee has released the transcript of its interview with Pam Bondi. Bondi said Todd Blanche "oversaw the entire" Epstein investigation. oversight.house.gov/wp-content/u...

In a statement to @benmullin.bsky.social, Scott Pelley disputes what Bari Weiss said in this morning's editorial meeting, claiming he was never offered "a way back" as she claimed. "These executives cannot gain the trust of the staff with lies. This is antithetical to everything we stand for..."

Rubio: I have never seen Trump fall asleep. Lieu: I’m going to show you a video that shows you just lied to congress. Here is a video of him asleep while you are talking.

Official official statement on the arrest:

NEW: House Oversight Cmte ranking member Rep. Robert Garcia (D-CA) asks panel chair to call Todd Blanche for transcribed interview re: Epstein Files mess Garcia: Pam Bondi "invoked Blanche’s name more than 30 times, pointing to him as the person responsible for DOJ’s actions"

Democrats have appealed a ruling that refused to block President Donald Trump’s anti-mail voting executive order as the administration moves to carry it out — a major escalation in one of the most consequential voting rights battles ahead of the 2026 midterms. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Gregory Bovino, Trump’s former border patrol chief, just attended a “remigration” summit alongside far-right European racists. Emigration is a white nationalist trope: non-white immigrants leave. Bovino also gave a shout out to Hitler’s lead general, Erwin Rommel. www.politico.eu/article/afd-...

It’s absolutely crazy they can void an election with no consequences.

Massie reacts to the push to “integrate” 🇺🇸 & 🇮🇱 militaries

As for Trump's "last-ditch" claim (filed 5/26) that removing his name from the Kennedy Center would render it "financially nonviable," Judge Cooper drop-kicked it in a footnote: untimely; "zero evidentiary value"; "unsupported opinion" & "contradicted by the record" & 60 yrs of history.

Americans should be alarmed by any attempt to turn public power into a partisan slush fund. If billions are being steered toward organizations whose purpose is helping one party win elections, that is not governance, it’s the corruption of democracy itself.

Trump is going to push against these losses to his vanity projects so the Supreme Court is forced to decide if they are ride or die with the most ridiculous cases ever brought before them.

Former federal judge John Jones on Slush fund: This lawsuit essentially—there was no report of a settlement. It was just a discontinuance of the suit, and then comes the settlement thereafter. In my experience—you don’t do that unless you’re trying to keep something from the presiding judge.

Bruce will be back in D.C. on Oct. 3, as a special guest of the first-ever Power to the People Festival — joining Tom Morello to play a few songs with his band for another night of music and resistance.

“There was a man who has Stage 3 lung cancer, not getting medical treatment. He wants to leave, go back home, spend his final months...with his family. But they just won’t let him go.”

Breaking Variety: Bari Weiss just ousted 60 Minutes' two most senior executive producers, Tanya Simon and Draggan Mihailoivich, along with correspondents Sharyn Alfonsi and Cecilia Vega, according to two people familiar with the matter.

Menendez: Delaney Hall was supposed to be a place to hold the worst of the worst. That’s just not the reality of who’s there. We had a pastor who was there for several weeks. We have mothers, fathers. You have pregnant women who are there.

Corruption in plain sight. It will take a decade to fix this debacle. #TrumpCorruption

Sen. Thom Tillis on CNN: "Look, we were told about 11 weeks ago by Hegseth and the Department of Defense that they had obliterated Iran's defenses … Now we're talking about a posture where we may accept the nuclear material remaining in Iran. How does that make sense at all?"

“The President shall, at stated Times, receive for his Services, a Compensation, which shall neither be encreased nor diminished during the Period for which he shall have been elected, and he shall not receive within that Period any other Emolument from the U.S., or any of them.” [i.e. state govs]

🚨 The Trump DOJ has now moved to dismiss the seditious conspiracy case against Oath Keepers founder Elmer Stewart Rhodes III and several other Oath Keepers who participated in the January 6th insurrection — with prejudice — meaning the charges cannot be brought again.

While we slept the DOJ deleted all press releases about charges against January 6 defendants: www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...

Morning everyone. Do you know that your President just exempted himself, his family, and all his family's companies from our tax laws? You are subject to the law. Now he is not. No one should not pretend this is okay or normal. It's an ongoing constitutional crisis.

Nothing to see here, move along.
