A reminder that my team is trying to bring some joy and reaffirmation of human agency to this anniversary with the 250 to 250 videos. Here's Pete Buttigieg talking about the Erie Canal, for example:

The hard rock segment included: Ted Nugent Foghat Rick Derringer Mahogany Rush (Whose frontman played a rock rendition of "The Star-Spangled Banner") Head East Plus: Dionne Warwick The 5th Dimension Anita Bryant Chita Rivera The Young Americans And no one was ashamed to be included.🤷‍♀️ 2/2

Just in case you were wondering, our Bicentennial Celebration in 1976 was held in multiple venues, and the artists included: The Eagles Fleetwood Mac Loggins & Messina (Their final performance before splitting up) Dan Fogelberg Elton John The Beach Boys America Elvis Presley Bruce Springsteen 1/2

I second your reply and offer this additional commentary:

The men on the right are unfukable and that’s why they try the ‘trad’ wife bs who always submits no matter. Look at those guys. Fkn ugly. Some women don’t mind a pig rutting around on top of them if it says ‘god’ a time or two.

Congrats to the GOP for forcing the entire country talk about @jamestalarico.bsky.social’s girlfriend, who it turns out is super hot 👍

The reply button has got to be the Holy Grail of social media.

Marilou & I are deeply saddened by the loss of our lifelong friend, Marcia. Not just a gifted, innovative artist, she also happened to be a genuinely nice person. Smart, funny, & just plain fun to be around. Thankfully, her memory lives on and we will never stop missing her. shorturl.at/wx6BV

May 29, 2026 This morning, Senator John Cornyn (R-TX), who just lost his primary after President Donald J. Trump endorsed Republican challenger Ken Paxton, posted: “An old, but apt fable: “A scorpion wants to cross a river but cannot swim, so it asks a frog to carry it across….

Authorities in Minnesota Kill 9 People, Shoot 14 in Last Six Months

Boooooooo!!

Extrajudicial executions, by the Trump junta, continue, unabated, constituting crimes against humanity.

1/4 Russian channels are starting to sound genuinely alarmed about Ukraine’s “Logistical Lockdown.” They openly admit the systematic destruction of air defenses and logistics hubs in occupied territories is working. “The consequences of this raid could be catastrophic.” That sentence says enough.

Trump's slush fund is straight-up corruption. Today, we won a court order that prevents the administration from transferring money or distributing any payments.

It's time to retire this idea from some that Dems should nominate a straight white guy in 2028 to be "safe." Just look at GOP attacks on Talarico, a straight white Christian. They're calling him "Tofu Talarico," "transgender," and running the same culture-war playbook they use on everyone else.

Let me take a break for a few hours and hang out with my remaining dog. This has been a long week. To see Mikie Sherrill do what she just did after 8 days of hard core organizing and friends being beaten and gassed at Delaney Hall while other friends fight in court for detainees— whew it is a lot

"We're having scandals like this every week—literally every week, and sometimes daily. There are no words to really describe the depth of the depravity, the mendacity and the corruption that we're seeing from this administration."

The past was erased, the erasure won’t be forgotten, the Big Lie won’t become the truth. www.lawfaremedia.org/article/the-...

Ansari: "Do I believe Blanche will be forthcoming? No, I do not. I think every administration official has lied over and over again. Bondi had senior DOJ officials like Harmeet Dhillon whispering in her ear telling her what to say or not to say. That's weaponization of the Dept of Justice."

Sadly true, sis?! And the disgusting show of wealth brought out by #Felon47 grifting daily. Just be a Mackenzie?!

The judge wrote in his 94-page ruling that it was "crystal clear" that the arts complex was named for the late president John F. Kennedy. He also ruled that the center could not wind down its programming and close for two years of renovations – at least for now n.pr/4uIQCD8

Today… Judge orders Trump’s name OFF Kennedy Center. Iran “deal” blasted as defeat. Musicians bail on his concert on the National Mall. DHS agent arrested for MN shooting in Trump’s immigration crackdown. Approval rating hits low 30%. Have a great weekend, DJT.

Thiel moves his children to Argentina. Well riddance to you griftmaxxed, soulminned human.exe for your contributions to the Fascist beta testing on democracy.

Consider supporting this effort.

In yet ANOTHER decision by a judge trying to unstick Alex Jones' abuse of the legal process to prevent us from paying the Sandy Hook families, Texas judge Maya Gamble said Alex Jones has conducted "outrageous discovery abuse, tampering with evidence, and continuous, callous disrespect" for the law.

For more than a decade, the all-white judges of a Louisiana appellate court ignored thousands of petitions filed by prisoners, most of them Black, who claimed they had been wrongly convicted. Efforts to expose the injustice went unheard. (Published Nov. 2023)

Kamala was going to give $20,000 to first time home buyers… Trump is giving $1.7 Billion of OUR TAX MONEY to traitors/insurrectionists… See the difference?!

happy birthday america, i got you the corpse of a 30 year old one hit wonder shuffling around in front of a fight pit next to a giant hole in the ground that used to be the east wing all at the pleasure of an octogenarian rapist with dementia

The 15 year old trans girl suing Idaho over their bathroom ban took her own life and they had to drop the case because of it. It's not a myth, you fucking ghouls!

NEW: Alaska lawmakers have allocated more than $148M toward school construction and maintenance following reporting by KYUK, ProPublica and @npr.org that documented a severe health and safety crisis inside buildings used for public education.

This is very good reporting but I’ll warn you the three videos that autoplay when you open the story are worse than you’re expecting them to be.

Pedo Paxton. "Predators who commit these crimes tend to repeat them over and over again, until stopped," Sen. John Cornyn recently posted. "Paxton could have stopped this one, but instead cut him loose to reoffend over and over again, putting more children at risk." www.tpr.org/news/2026-05...

Hey @erinbiba.bsky.social I thought you might enjoy this campaign advertisement. It’s always infrastructure week in our hearts.

Dr. Nadine Burke Harris, a pediatrician and California's first Surgeon General, is an expert on the impact of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) on long-term health. She advocates for early intervention and trauma-informed care. #childhoodtrauma #toxicstress #MentalHealthAwarnesssMonth #SheShed

Day 1556 of Russia's appalling all-out war and the day a Russian drone has hit a tower block in NATO territory. Article 5? Or will the "defensive alliance" brush it under the smouldering carpets of people's homes in Romania? This is Friday's daily thread...

MAHA doctors had a robust support network in medicine, the media, and academia that legitimized their COVID disinformation and promised they would restore trust at the NIH and FDA. I disagreed. Time for an update. My latest.

I want to live long enough to tell my great-grandchildren who the heroes were—-and who the cowards were.

I’m white and guarantee that I would go to jail for much less. It’s a rich white male thing.

"Complexion for Protection." I like that. Good moniker that tells it exactly like it is.

Brock Allen Turner, the rapist that's back in his hometown in Ohio that goes by Allen Turner now? That Brock Allen Turner?

youtu.be/shzpR8A_at8?... #AnnaKepner #TimothyHudson 16 year old Timothy Hudson was and still is FREE selling firewood in central Florida while living with his uncle. He could easily RAPE & MURDER ANOTHER HUMAN BEING! #WhitePrivilege #rape #ToxicFamily #carnivalcruise #brianentin

This is Timothy Hudson. He raped & killed his stepsister. A judge ruled because he’s 16 he gets to spend time at home with family awaiting trial. He’s Not an immigrant. Not a Black or brown person. A US citizen with the complexion for protection. 1/2

16 year old Kalief Browder was tortured for 3 years in prison and solitary on the mere (false) accusation that he allegedly stole a backpack. He died by suicide from the trauma. Hudson gets to chill at home after raping & killing. This is America. 2/2
