If you haven’t been following yourowkelsey on IG or FB - RUN to catch up on her story. She set out 43 days ago to be the youngest woman to solo row the mid pacific route: CA to Hawaii. I have loved watching her posts daily, now she’s 85 miles away. She will blow by both the Womens and Men’s records!

And just like that, Republicans have no problem with a sitting president making billions in office on crypto scams, from foreign governments and oligarchs, and industries directly impacted by his orders, policies and regulations.

Celebrate EVERY WIN!

“On America’s 250th birthday, our study gives a clear reality check,” said Theodore Keeping, a climate scientist at Imperial College London... “The climate the country has today is fundamentally different to the one it had when the founding fathers signed the Declaration of Independence.”

260. Two hundred. And sixty. This is an indefensible misuse of government resources and, in any other administration, an impeachable offense. Even if Trump's claim wasn't complete fiction, the statute of limitations has run and the FBI has no business wasting time investigating this.

At least they're not hiding their corruption. Go big or go home.

Last year ICE said a man tried to murder a female ICE officer while she was trying to arrest him. They swore under oath he grabbed her by the neck and tried to choke her to death. He was even indicted for attempted murder. Problem is, it never happened! Bystander video unraveled the lie.

If American democracy fails, everything people here care about - Gaza, climate change, spelling reform, whatever - gets worse. (Just ask the people now dying in Africa.) So prioritize your voting as if you're a reasoning, capable adult, and not a single-issue child holding your breath.

Even if there are more facts here than meet the eye, just because a prosecutor can charge someone with a crime does not mean they should. Pirro seems to have made this man a scapegoat just so Trump can blame “vandals” for his own Reflecting Pool blunders.

NEW: Following reporting by @wbur.org and ProPublica, Gov. Maura Healey has pledged to sign a bill into law ensuring that Massachusetts will no longer have one of the strictest rape prosecution deadlines in the country.

62 years ago today, the Civil Rights Act was signed into law because people refused to back down. That same energy is needed now. As voting rights are under attack, we cannot afford to be complacent. We must keep fighting until every voice is heard and every vote counts. We are not letting up.

The Trump family took $4 billion while building a $1 billion gilded ballroom and demolishing the East Wing. Now 20 million Americans risk losing healthcare. This is what Republicans call leadership. #TrumpRepublicanCorruption

“Get your hands off her!” A MASSACHUSETTS crowd yells at a cop who grabs a 14 year-old girl speaking out about data centers

Listen. I spent more than a decade as a theatrical technician, rigging stages, hanging lights, flying scenery, etc. The number of times I have dropped anything on a stage with performers on it is zero. The number of times I’ve dropped something that might’ve killed someone is zero. This is major.

BREAKING MS NOW: The FBI is surging resources into what it calls a "priority" investigation related to the 2020 election in Georgia — an extraordinary effort to find nonexistent evidence to support Trump's election lies.

I was pleased (and a little amazed) when Brazil got rid of Bolsonaro. I was more recently pleased (and very much amazed) when Hungary got rid of Orban. I am VERY pleased (and fully ecstatic) at how Ukraine has turned the tide on Russia and severely weakened Putin. It CAN and WILL happen here, too.

My resolution proposing a constitutional amendment to overturn the Supreme Court’s Citizens United decision now has 88 co-sponsors! (You can view the full list at: congress.gov/bill/119th-congress/house-joint-resolution/122) I won’t stop fighting to get it across the finish line.

HOLY SHIT. FIFA President Gianni Infantino is at the USA game, sitting with Howard Lutnick, Secretary of Commerce AND CLOSE PERSONAL FRIEND OF JEFFREY EPSTEIN. Disgusting.

THIS IS WHAT IS CALLED FOR UNDER FASCISM — BRAVERY Before the attacks & the hot takes start, a few facts: Major Jason Watson is a graduate of the US Air Force Academy, a career logistics officer, a NATO officer, and a decorated veteran who volunteered for a 365-day tour in Afghanistan… 🧵

John Brennan to MS NOW: "I told my lawyers I don't want to sit on our hands — because if he gets away with me, he's going to continue to do this against other individuals." "That's why enough is enough and that's why today's lawsuit, I think, sends a clear signal that I'm willing to fight."

Two years ago, my colleagues and I were sued by Stephen Miller's America First Legal. The Hines v Stamos case — built atop a number of false allegations — was a central element of the "censorship industrial complex" myth. Today, that case was dismissed (by a Trump judge in LA). We won.

🚨WOW — “Don’t voters have a right to hear from you? We asked you for interviews multiple times.” @MarshaBlackburn RUNS 🏃🏻‍♀️from @NC5_BenHall as he asks her why she refuses to debate her GOP primary opponents for governor…AWKWARD! 😬 Great job Ben 👏🏽

what the fuck did yall think she meant

I really believe James Talarico and some other Dems, like Jon Ossoff, are developing a new kind of moral language and politics for the era of Late Stage Trumpism. Case made below. (discussing work by @jenszalai.bsky.social) newrepublic.com/article/2125...

Donald Trump made more than $2 billion last year while lying that affordability issues are a hoax and prices are going down. Never in American history has a man exploited the White House for such corruption and self-enrichment.

🚨BREAKING: If you thought the right wing would accept our mail-in voting victory on Monday in SCOTUS, you were wrong. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

I spoke with @chrislhayes.bsky.social about yesterday’s decision in the birthright citizenship case. That this was not a unanimous decision by the Court should mute any inclination to celebrate unreservedly.

Smells like total BS. He will not spike gas prices back up going into the second half of summer and midterms. He is leaking this to try and scare Iran into backing down on their enforcement on the strait.

A White House task force is gathering thousands of pages of documents from U.S. intelligence agencies, with plans to declassify some of them, so President Donald Trump can amplify new accusations about past elections, three people familiar with the effort said. www.nbcnews.com/politics/whi...

Donald Trump is yelling into the wind on birthright citizenship. If Republicans in Congress take this on his behalf, know that they’ve taken a position based on racism.

“I do think people are beginning to understand that this Court is really problematic and maybe even anti-democratic in certain ways.” @profmmurray.bsky.social joins @preetbharara.bsky.social & me to discuss this SCOTUS term on a new @cafedotcom.bsky.social Insider episode: cafe.visitlink.me/NTvc44

They want to convince their followers that we are un-American, in the wrong country. But it’s them. THEY are in the wrong country. Their goals, plans, ideology are no less than an insurrection against the Second Founding - the constitutional framework for our country created after the Civil War.

In attempting to deny automatic citizenship to children born in the U.S. to non-citizen parents, Trump was also attempting to shape the future electorate, influence the demographic makeup of electoral districts and suppress civic participation. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

I did not realize how crooked an outfit "Track AIPAC" seems to be. They appear to list J Street contributions as being part of AIPAC or functionally the same thing. Their "individual expenditures" list seems to include a lot of giving from people who are simply Jews.

if you don’t think some asshole softball dad will humiliate a cisgender girl for hitting an oppo bomb off their daughter by challenging their gender you have never met a youth sports parent in your life.

if you have feelings about SCOTUS after today, and after the last week, and after the last months and years, remember that at least you can vote for state supreme courts in many places this year, and those matter a ton too my state-by-state guide to every state supreme court contest:

DEMOCRATS ON OFFENSE Republicans spent years assuming huge parts of the country belonged to them by default. Dems looked at the map and said, “Challenge accepted.” Now they’re running everywhere. And in places that weren’t supposed to be competitive.

All girls are going to be harassed and pedo/predator coaches are going to demand to “see for themselves”. “Wrong” haircut, phenotype, etc. will be enough. And Black girls will get it the worst.

Mitch McConnell should resign Immediately…..

I think they did this with baby formula, too.

I wonder if Shady Vance realizes Jesus was a low wage foreigner...

You would think “your mom using AI to make it look like you were given a birthday party” is the most pathetic thing you’d ever see but then you remember he runs this account himself
