WATCH: “The Supreme Court tore that apart — and the fact that Republicans came for MEMPHIS first feels deeply personal because of that city’s Civil Rights history.” @channel4news.bsky.social puts the racist Republican redistricting in historical context.

SPOTTED in rural Tennessee: “Iran your gas prices up” sticker⛽️

How it started 🧑‍🌾 How it’s going Tennessee soybean festival canceled, as TN farmers continue to struggle under Trump’s trade war — devastating rural towns. sign of the times: www.wbbjtv.com/2026/05/22/t...

And now we see why Trump sent the Gov. of Louisiana to Greenland. bsky.app/profile/atru...

The guest lineup for Colbert’s final episode is being kept completely secret. I don’t know how I’m going to hold it together… But let’s give him ratings of a lifetime 💔

😆 SPOTTED IN INDIANA 👀

Proud Boy and adjudicated terrorist Enrique Tarrio tells @emptywheel.bsky.social “Just pay your taxes so I can enjoy your money. Get fucked, ho.”

I can’t believe tonight is the final episode of Colbert.

Hey, Mitch. You could have prevented ALL THIS by voting to convict him and bar him from holding office again. Asshole.

SEN. TILLIS (R): “These people don't deserve restitution. Many of them deserve to be in prison. This is just stupid on stilts. Republicans need to speak up. This is beyond the pale… This is bad policy, bad timing, bad politics.” (H/T @acyn.bsky.social )

*chef’s kiss* 💋 perfection

“A.I. is rewriting production as we sit here… deal with it. Like I said, it’s a tool… hear me now or pay me later.” Scott Borchetta, a Nashville record label executive, gets booed by MTSU grads when he brings up A.I.

America is such a cesspool of nonstop self inflicted chaos. I literally took 1 day off, only 1, to go up to NYC to host an event. I have spent the entire day catching up on all the ongoing news which is one disaster headline after another. All of this could've been avoided but here we are.

She is correct.

Watch Stephen Colbert's show and then never watch CBS again. Make em feel it.

When I think of Susan Collins, I think of Kavanaugh. She should be called Susan Kavanaugh.

Obviously incoherent in so many ways 👇🏿👇🏿

WOW. Donald Trump basically just agreed with Governor Newsom: JD Vance doesn’t have what it takes to carry MAGA after Trump. Trump accepted the premise — then awkwardly stumbled through some half-hearted praise for JD. Brutal.

Nope. share.google/hU3PbZPVCrHJ...

Sure looks like Xi is getting exactly what he wants. And what is Trump getting? Nothing, apparently. What brilliant negotiating.

Every Republican in office is responsible for this BS !!

Some notes now that I’ve seen the transcript of the hearing, thanks to @lizdye.bsky.social . First: the government dismissed the felony count in an effort to convince the judge not to make them produce full transcripts, knowing they showed serious misconduct.

To anyone who thinks animals can't feel loss. It's been 6 months since the dog passed and his friend cat still cuddles his collar every night before bed.

Fun fact: North Carolina still hasn’t recovered from hurricane Helene, and Trump wants $2 billion to give people who smeared shit on the walls of the Capitol.

You've heard me on the campaign trail, the news, and podcasts - now I want to hear from YOU! Join me at 6:30 on the Upper West Side, Tuesday, May 26. mobilize.us/s/6EMn48

There’s a rogue “O” in the book title

Release the Epstein Files. Now. Anyone who is against their release is complicit.

I read this yesterday and it struck a chord. "The US isn't the way it is because he's the President... he's the President because the US is the way it is." 🤔 I think I finally understand. It's not just him... it's almost half of you. Pity.

FUCK ICE NOW AND FOREVER

What do we think to this wig? I am going to wear it to the pride event at work tomorrow.

The voter rights act protected all of us, including white voters. Especially disenfranchised low income voters. This has always been a class issue. We need to see more outrage. #SCOTUS youtube.com/shorts/Gp4ai...

🚨If a state is making it harder for your family to vote, why reward them with your talent and your NIL money? I said what I said. You can still make it to the NFL, NBA, or anywhere else without propping up politicians attacking democracy and voting rights.

For more than a decade, Stephen Colbert has been one of the top voices of late night—making us laugh and, even more importantly, reminding us who we are and what America stands for. Michelle and I enjoyed being Stephen’s guests—even when the games were rigged—and we’re grateful to call him a friend.

I saw this in Erin Brockovich. bsky.app/profile/acyn...

more public architecture should have discreet places for bird nests!

The January 6th Slush Fund hasn’t even opened applications yet, and look who’s lining up. Andrew Taake, accused of attacking police with bear spray on January 6th, while he was already out on pretrial release for child solicitation in Texas. He now has to register as a sex offender.

For two years, Mike Johnson refused to hang the plaque on the wall honoring police officers who defended the Capitol on J6 against a mob of violent rioters, even though a law was passed to mandate it. But he supports paying over a billion dollars to the criminal rioters.

I really never thought J6 was going to be a major issue in the 2026 midterm elections. I don’t think anyone did. But thanks to Trump, it has now become a major problem for Republicans.

This is what happens when Trump finds the only person dumber than Kristi Noem to be her replacement.

Tonight will be the last night a television in my house is turned on to CBS 😠 Stephen Colbert gave us nights of laughter. All while the world around us was in turmoil due to health, economy, prices of food. My family loves you ❤️ Stephen. Thanks @markhamillofficial.bsky.social for this message.

I miss normal Presidents

📌NOTE: Trump has made Stephen Colbert even more popular, and CBS even less watchable. Well done, asshole.

You heard Jasmine Crockett endorsed Becerra for governor. I asked what advice she’d give a future Gov Becerra (inheriting Prop 50) as gerrymandering spreads across the South and shows no signs of stopping after 2026. Her answer was bigger than just what a governor can do. We all can help.
