Pelley with fantastic parting shots. This is what happens in authoritarian regimes, folks. Is it worth it?

This is truly one of the worst things the court has done — both in terms of legitimacy and in terms of the law — since I have been covering the court.

"They’re going to have to fire him. No amount of HR speak will have him retract what he said," one CBS staffer just told me, adding: "For an anti-woke crusader, this is pretty woke of [Bari] to accuse Pelley of after firing the entire leadership of his show and two correspondent colleagues."

I just love politics! 🙃

UPDATE: Pax Christi NJ, a Catholic group, is claiming on Instagram the hospitality tent outside Delaney Hall — featured in the @rns.org minidoc below — has been “trashed.”

BLANCHE: Who the president chooses to pardon is not a problem, period IVEY: What's the legal basis for that statement? BLANCHE: The Constitution IVEY: The Constitution does not give him the authority to pardon in exchange for payments. It does not permit bribery

The heart of our constitutional crisis in one exchange between me and Sec. Mullin. When asked a simple question - if he will obey court orders - he says he will not because some court orders are "politicized". That's not how democracy works. And that's why we are in a crisis.

DHS is on track to break last year's record for people dying in its custody. ICE agents tear gassed a U.S. Senator last week. I'm not writing a blank check to an agency that is engaged in nonstop brutality and abuses of power.

This new PROOF report will make you angry. It should. Platner isn’t a great candidate—but he’s also not the person corporate media is trying to paint him as. PROOF does a deep, exhaustively sourced dive into the lies being told to ensure MAGA keeps its Maine Senate seat.

This is not a movie about meteor showers before the apocalypse; this is Russia bombing Kyiv last night. A city with several million people in it - children, the elderly, and normal families just like yours.

Folks, we may be getting scammed. Republicans are putting on a big show of killing Trump's slush fund. But what about the other part of the IRS settlement, which gives Trump, his businesses and his family immunity from audits? They're not saying anything about that: newrepublic.com/article/2112...

Trump keeps backing himself into a corner by blinking every time Iran publicly pulls back from the negotiations, then he tweets out the same insane shit to make his followers think he’s a tough guy.

Even if the Trumpsters dumpster their cop-beater slush fund, that’s not the end of this saga.

This is really well done by @vanhollen.senate.gov. A litany of Trump’s foreign policy disasters and documentation of Rubio’s hypocrisy. You all ought to take a few minutes and have a listen.👇

If you don’t like what you’re seeing at Delaney Hall, pay attention to what’s happening in Congress this week.   We must stop giving ICE and for-profit companies like GEO Group a blank check to create chaos.

Shorter NYT: Trump will drop the Terrorist Slush Fund unless shitty coverage like this story gives him cover to resume it. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/06...

You don’t get credit for complying with a temporary court order. Trump’s scheme to rob American taxpayers won’t be dead until Congress bans it.

What is true of Platner today was true of Platner a month ago. He is a deeply flawed person who nevertheless is working his ass off and speaking in ways that appeal to Mainiacs (my mom, who was born there, told me I should call them that). Maine voters have been forgotten from this discussion.

Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold: "The Governor's grant of clemency to Tina Peters is an affront to our democracy, the people of Colorado, and election officials across the country. It sends a dangerous message about accountability for those who would attack elections."

I resigned from the FBI exactly one year ago this day. While the timing is entirely coincidental, I’m glad this morning to help announce the launch of a project on which I’ve been collaborating since my departure. Our hope is that fewer agents and analysts will have to make the choices we did.

If any of us had predicted that Trump would demolish a third of the White House and build a UFC ring on the South Lawn, we would have been dismissed as the most unhinged conspiracy theorists to ever exist

And this is why the denialists have to exaggerate the importance of things like the recent tribunal between the OPCW and Brendan Whelan. The tribunal made no judgement whatsoever on the validity of Whelan's claims, but if you read the denialists' claims it's as if they've been proven 100% right.

“[ICE] are putting people in the shadows and keeping them from safety.” Congresswoman @repdexteror.bsky.social recounts her visits to detention centers across Texas, noting “children in detention should be illegal across the board.” Watch the full conversation: youtu.be/zzGsAvQ35m0

Brian Kilmeade claimed anti-ICE protesters wanted "chaos and unrest" to make the Trump administration look bad. Who wants to tell him that the Trump Admin. is nonstop chaos and unrest.

NEW: lots of you have sent me this article asking for my thoughts. I’ve been able to confirm it. Just as she says, Trump’s administration is staging vote.gov on a non-government cloudflare account under the EOP where there’s no oversight or accounting. 1/ open.substack.com/pub/thedreyd...

We have a health care worker shortage. Donald Trump’s response? Let’s make it harder for working class kids to become doctors and nurses.

Despite court order to do so, Interior Secretary Doug Burgum would not commit to taking Trump's name off the Kennedy Center On CNN, Burgum instead waffled and noted there could be an appeal

It’s so stupid so trump is obsessed

I'm sure many have already heard but if you are going to Delaney Hall tonight, I'm hearing various reports from people on the ground saying that there is an LRAD on site -- a long range acoustic device. LRADs are sonic weapons that can permanently damage hearing.

They can't even get their shit together long enough to organize and launch a concert. They’re completely useless. It’s just a staggering level of incompetence

If you are posting MacGregor then your information sources are likely very tainted by Russian propaganda mills and your ability to do “do your own research” is that of a Capuchin that ate too many paint chips.

Imagine a fire so immense it reshapes the landscape and ecological history,research shows the 2012 blaze in the Rwenzori Mountains was over 100 times more intense than anything seen in 12,000 years. What could this mean for the future? 🔥

Palantir put out a 22-point summary of their CEO's book The Technological Republic. It's pitched as a defence of the West, but if you read it through the VDA framework, verification, deliberation, accountability, what it's actually doing looks rather different. twitter-thread.com/t/2045574398...

Really worth the time to watch this. Pay attention.

It's something I lay out in detail here if you want to understand what you're going through, but I suspect at this point you'll be completely resistant to the points I'm making and reflecting on your own behaviour and psychology youtu.be/D-FVjonlGOY?...

NEW: Trump's gross Aliens.gov site claims to map where immigrants have been taken into custody, but it includes more 83 spots where Americans alone were arrested. Over 700 locations include citizen arrests. The counter is fake. The music was ripped. And Puerto Rico is listed as a foreign country.

Heroes.

Holy - look at this. On May 26th, someone opened nearly 5,000 contracts of the drone maker Unusual Machines, #$UMAC, $20 calls expiring 7/17/2026. Then literally YESTERDAY, the Pentagon reported possible stakes in the industry. These contracts hit a 570% gain. Unusual.

Reuters: US JUDGE ORDERS TRUMP ADMINISTRATION TO REMOVE PRESIDENT TRUMP'S NAME FROM KENNEDY CENTER BUILDING - ORDER

imagine controlling the vice president of the united states and then still decamping for south america

BREAKING: I'm suing Todd Blanche and the DOJ to STOP the $1.8B slush fund. The Justice Department violated the Administrative Procedures Act when it established the fund, and it must be set aside. You can read my complaint here: www.muellershewrote.com/p/breaking-i...

It's genuinely funny a 74 year old senator got played by the most obvious conman ever and is now posting passive aggressively like a pre-teen who hasn't learned subtlety yet.

So it looks like we’re having a “Marshall plan” for Iran, in the amount of 300 billion to pay for the damage we did. Winning?

Ouch.

BREAKING: A federal judge has temporarily BLOCKED the $1.8B slush fund. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

These morons actually think airlines are going to divert all international flights from NYC, NJ, CHI, LA, SF, DEN, PHI, SEA and other cities to red states because of Markwayne’s edict. Stunningly stupid.
