Of course Trump waits until markets close to hit Iran today.

I spoke with workers about Elon Musk hitting the trillionaire mark and their struggles with inflation, affordability, and not be able to save or plan for the future www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Study also finds high humidity means people in hundreds of cities are enduring their worst ever heat stress

Americans’ personal savings rate has dropped to one of its lowest levels in 15 years. Household debt is at a record high. Millions of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck, which aren't keeping up with inflation. Meanwhile, corporate profits are at a record high. The system is rigged.

“We make Nixon’s corruption look like small potatoes in comparison.”

BREAKING: Judge Sullivan just granted my Motion for Preliminary Injunction, ordering Todd Blanche to produce TO THE PUBLIC, on or before July 2nd, specific UNREDACTED Epstein Files documents or show cause as to why they should not be produced. Details to come! www.courtlistener.com/docket/73246...

Trump and Republicans "Big Beautiful Bill" has already taken food assistance away from more than 770,000 American kids: www.propublica.org/article/snap...

💡Deaths of Despair 3x Great Depression levels, 2.7x since ‘00. Drug ODs 5×, alcohol deaths 4.6× higher. OUR crisis, intentionally created by putin/bibi/krasnov elon/murdoch /yarvin/theil/ellison/zuck🇺🇸😢

"No one gives a shit about housing." Only ballrooms.

I don’t know man, who is “the Democratic Party” if it’s not the voters?Democratic voters choose candidates, not party leaders. And party leaders need to listen to what voters are telling us - and right now they are demanding our party be bolder.

I'd honestly rather watch the algae bloom.

It’s too early in the morning to listen to advertising exec Donny Deutsch, worth $ 250 million, lecture Democrats about going too far left. Not when this economy is leaving the majority of hard working Americans behind. He’s part of the parasitic economy.

You’d think it ironic that someone clearly awful at deal-making wrote a book called “The Art of the Deal”… until you remember that someone else was paid to ghost-write it, and Trump probably didn’t even read it. It’s as fake as Trump’s fake success on “The Apprentice.” Both lies helped get us here.

American Jew, here. Rabbi, actually! AIPAC is not, in fact, "Millions of people." It's a lobbying *org* that spends a lot of money to influence lawmakers with the goal of getting substantial military spending to another govt., & associated goals. US Jews are a *people*, with diverse opinions!

Paul Krugman is right: there's nothing “inevitable” about Social Security cuts. The crisis is political,not mathematical. Corrupt Republicans took new revenue off the table so they can force benefit cuts onto workers. Don’t accept the gaslighting. #HandsOffSocialSecurity #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

Green Reflecting Pool

Ossoff: “They lie on beds of ivory and anoint themselves in the finest oils,” and while living in these Mar-a-Lago-like conditions, they indulged in corruption and abused their power.

It's been over seven months now and they still haven't fully released the Epstein files as required by law because withholding exculpatory evidence is clearly what you do when you're "innocent."

"The Americans can't get the slime out of their capital's monument pool and will arrest you for touching it," sounds like the sort of lie they'd tell us in the Soviet Union so we'd stop bitching about bread lines.

The richest man owns X. The second and third richest men control Google. The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post. The seventh richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. And now the sixth richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros. See the problem here?

Did DoD just admit in a court filing that it used xAI's Grok Gov Model to hit the girls' school on the first day of the Iran war? Based on some passages flagged by @rgoodlaw.bsky.social in DoD's recent filing in NAACP's case against X, it looks like it did 1/

ANY other President would have been removed, disgraced, and castigated.

Imagine Trump ever being invited to join a photo like this — not in a million years. Four presidents. Zero drama. Just smiles, respect, and a shared love of country. 🇺🇸

#ProudBlue #ResistanceUnited #Pinks Go ahead and try to find one thing on this list that is not good for the American people. All of this is attainable if the current government would stop wasting our money on DonOLD’s vanity projects. When he’s gone, we will have to tear it all down. Tacky crap!

This doesn’t surprise me at all.

MELONI: “.. Trump’s statements are completely fabricated. I’m frankly shocked. I don’t know why the president of the United States behaves this way towards his own allies, and it’s not the first time it’s happened.” @cnn.com 🇮🇹 www.cnn.com/2026/06/19/p...

Will Trump do anything to stop Netanyahu from bombing Lebanon, to save this Iran agreement? He hasn’t, up to this point. Does Netanyahu have some kind of leverage over him, something related to Epstein?

How did people hear of the end of slavery? The testimonies from five men and women from four different states recount how they heard and responded to the news of their freedom.

📌Using this Juneteenth to remind everybody how damn far we still have to go to truly be a free and decent country, and that DEI is about fairness not favoritism. And to all you phony universities, corporations, and politicians who caved to the bigoted Trump on this extremely important issue: SHAME!

🚨 TRUMP SPARKS DIPLOMATIC CRISIS WITH ITALY: Italy’s Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani has canceled his planned June 21–22 trip to Washington after President Trump insulted Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, claiming she “begged” for a photo with him at the G7 and that he “felt sorry for her.” 1/

Trump opens Medal of Honor event: "The stock market just hit an all-time high" (note the total silence of the audience 😬)

Biden economic record good. Inherited misery index = 7.8 2021-1, handed 7.0 = 3.0% inflation + 4.0% unemployment to Trump 2025-1, lowest misery index left by outgoing prez since 1953. In Trump’s golden age, May 2026 misery = 8.5 = 4.2% inflation + 4.3% U. economystupid.substack.com/p/lucky-trum...

When Trump went to war with Iran, I watched every speech anyone in the administration gave and made a chart of every reason given for going to war "Eliminate ballistic capability" was the #1 reason given: more even than preventing Iran from getting a nuclear weapon

No, they can’t, without enough votes to overcome the Republicans in Congress. Why is that so hard for so many people to figure out? People who aren’t voting for Democrats are simply supporting Trump, whether they understand the effects of their non votes, or not.

Ossoff on Trump calling him "Os(jerk!)off" -- "I didn't think it was his best work as far as nicknames go. But more to the point, he is increasingly unstable. And I think it flows the fact that he is globally humiliated from this failed war."

"Biggest scam in modern political history."

NEW: Records obtained by ProPublica detail at least a dozen SpaceX investors with addresses in mainland China, Hong Kong or Russia who acquired stakes in SpaceX years ago through a middleman firm in the U.S. called Tomales Bay Capital.

Sounds like Trump's personal "Strait of Hormuz" just opened.

More than 770,000 children are no longer receiving SNAP assistance after President $600 Million Vanity Project Ballroom changes federal food program. “… reports from a dozen states show children are losing access.” www.propublica.org/article/snap...

1. Hillary Clinton says when she was Secretary of State there was “constant” and “relentless” pressure by Prime Minister Netanyahu and then-Defense Minister Ehud Barak to secure U.S. backing for a military strike against Iran.

Trump and Secretary McMahon are pushing millions of student borrowers off a default cliff. They’ve gutted Federal Student Aid and buried repayment applications. This is an economic catastrophe. I’m pushing for answers.

If only Sinclair Lewis were alive today to chronicle our descent into madness. He probably wouldn’t be the least bit surprised.

LIKING BERNIE'S TOUGHNESS......

TESLA: A shitty company that loses money and makes bad cars that blow up. TWITTER: A shitty platform that ruined civil discourse and loses money. SPACEX: A shitty company whose rockets explode and only survived thanks to government welfare. WALL STREET: "OMG! Elon Musk is a business genius!!!!!"
