Organizers for the North Carolina booth at Trump's partisan event, the Great American State Fair, had to remove an image of a Confederate flag displayed in the state's pavilion on the National Mall. The state didn't put it up. At least one sponsor has pulled out.

Good Sunday morning! Reminder: this very good boy urgently needs a foster! Contact Seattle Animal Shelter about Loki today!

Just 10 people have already poured $617 MILLION into this year’s midterm elections. In the entire 2008 presidential cycle, the last election before Citizens United, total billionaire spending was $16 million. This is not sustainable. We need to get Big Money out of our democracy.

Biden: Trump wants to give your money to the January 6 insurrectionists. My god. These people don't deserve to be compensated. They deserve to be put in jail for a long, long, long time.

Biden: Putting his name on the Kennedy Center. Building an arch in his own honor. Even hiring his own pool guy to fix the reflecting pool. Whoa. What a loser.

Pressure works. Sound familiar? "Protesters, opposition and rights groups allege the railway station disaster was a sign of broader government mismanagement of construction projects and corruption."

Someone should really write about this stuff and the legal culture it grows out of. Just sayin'. www.simonandschuster.com/books/Vigila...

Thank the good lord above my new passport does not have IQ47’s dumbass photo on it and his stupid greeting telling me to be good. Hurry and renew while you can get a decent passport!

Republicans never stop lecturing us about “family values” and the “sanctity of marriage.” Yet America’s highest divorce rates are almost all red states, and Trump cheated on all of his wives and paid hush money to a porn star. #FamilyValues

Everything he touches is crap

DVA handles my business with the VA. If anyone knows, they do.

America250 is official, bipartisan commission established by Congress in 2016. Freedom 250 is public-private partnership created in 2025 as part of Task Force 250, chaired by Trump. Both receive portion of $150M from Congress, Trump admin allocated $100M to Freedom250 & $50M to America250.

Just got this press release

There was supposed to be one great party, America250, funded by Congress, to the tune of about $80 million dollars Trump siphoned off $60 million from that congressional grant to create his own "special little boy" Freedom250 party.

Oh come the fuck on A) This is too "Hunger Games" to be acceptable B) Why does he want athletic children competing against each other while he watches? I mean we know why but??? What the fuck?! We aren't angry enough www.whitehouse.gov/freedom250/

Pride is a time to celebrate how far we’ve come, but it’s also a time to remember the power of our vote. Candidates who don’t support our community haven’t earned our support at the ballot box.

Just prepping the country for Th Hunger Games.

The Religious Liberty Commission claims “separation of church and state” is a myth while recommending the DOJ rewrite Establishment Clause guidance. That's not protecting religious liberty. That's asking the government to redefine the Constitution to favor religion.

White Christian Nationalist are coming for all the power they can get. What Citizens United did for corporations this could do for churches.

Requiring students to read the Bible is a clear violation of separation of church and state. It’s everything the founding fathers were against when they write the Constitution. The US has no religion. Court case incoming. #ProudBlue#Voices4Victory #OneV1 apple.news/Ar45v6k7nTYC...

Critics say mandating Bible reading for over five million students breaches constitutional separation of church and state

Mamdani just showed up at Penn Station, wristbands in hand, helping World Cup fans find their trains like it was nothing. Panama vs England, MetLife bound, and the mayor was just out there in the crowd. No big deal. Very big deal.

I just blocked that commenter. Pretending to conflate the social worker with the person who placed an anonymous malicious call with a false report is disingenuous and clearly suspect.

#SwimSaturday for Loki! Look at this good boy swimmer! AND he comes with a stick retrieval option! Loki is looking for his forever family in Seattle or someone to foster him. Take him out of the stress of kennels. He is so smart & bilingual! Will high 5, shake, sit, wait. @seattleanimalshelter.com

The KIDS Act includes the SCREEN Act, which is explicit about age verification. And other components -- KOSA, the Safer GAMING Act, the SAFE Bots Act -- include language that will lead to age verification in practice. See @eff.org's analysis at www.eff.org/deeplinks/20...

@repkimschrier.bsky.social it's very disappointing to see you advocating anti-LGBTQ legislation like the KIDS Act and KOSA that will censor and surveil the internet -- especially on Pride weekend! Please have a look at msmagazine.com/2025/02/25/l... and rethink your position

So you’re admitting that you and Trump are committing Watergate-level scandals every 12 hours?

They are fascinating and smart!

Ossoff: On Wednesday of this last week he said the war was "Done." And then on Thursday another ship was struck. On Friday the president was bombing again. This is what happens when you send your son-in-law, Jared, to cosplay as a diplomat

Ossoff: "When they gathered in Atl to remove Black elected officials not by defeating them at the polls, but by manipulating maps to dilute minority power, they saw you mobilize & they backed down. A wave is building ... let's make sure they hear it down at Mar-a-Lago, that GA will bow to no king!"

so… (1) north carolina declines to pay to put up state booth at trump “state fair”. + (2) random republican congressional staffer does state booth instead = (3) cue the “confederate flag at north carolina booth” headlines… www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2026/...

Naming your kid 'Donald' has never been more unpopular. In 2025, the baby name 'Donald' hit its lowest point of popularity in U.S. history, according to data maintained by the Social Security Administration and reviewed by NOTUS.

Ossoff: I never want to hear these two pretend they give a damn about working people again. Because while hundreds of thousands of Georgians lose their health care, Mike Collins builds Trump a ballroom. They worked harder burying the Epstein files than they ever did lowering your grocery bill.

NYT: “.. The 18 major construction projects Mr. Trump has undertaken during his second term come with a potential cost of more than $1 billion.” @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

“you can’t label people with AI girlfriends weird because there are so many of them now” is quite the argument www.nytimes.com/2026/06/20/b...

Ossoff: "Citizens United was the most destructive court decision in modern history. It's unleashed a flood of secret money, corporate money, billionaire money. Trump's rise is a symptom of this deeper disease. Our task is not just to contain his wickedness, but to cure the rot that gave rise to it."

Ossoff: "This is what happens when you send your son in law Jared to cosplay as a diplomat. Despite zero qualifications, Prince Jared was tapped to lead Middle East diplomacy. Now remember Jared's slush fund already got $2 billion from the Saudi Crown Prince ... "

“If they are just cleared out like [Trump] is saying he is going to do, Springfield’s gone,” said Franky Pierre, from Jérémie in south-west Haiti, who came to the US on a boat with his family as far back as 1992. “There won’t be nobody here to come in.”

This is Arizona’s Republican, Trump endorsed candidate for governor. Is there any MSM willing to ask him why he asked Trump for a pardon? We do not need treasonous traitors as Gov in AZ. Re-elect Katie Hobbs. She respects the rule of law, honors our constitution, & fights for you. No to Biggs!

In May, the White House announced that its new app would be automatically downloaded onto the work phones of millions of government employees. The problem: Federal workers hate it and can’t get rid of it.

I was in South Africa. Looked everywhere for white genocide. Went from the Cape to Hodespruit to Johannesburg. Shockingly, I couldn't find any evidence. In fact, compared to Black Africans, the white South Africans are doing very well. Who would've thought? It's as if racists have been...lying!

Ossoff: I don’t know if you saw the mess in Washington last week. The president was so humiliated in Hormuz, he threw his toys out of the stroller and refused to sign the affordable housing bill.

Terrible things are happening outside. At any time of night and day, poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart; men, women and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared. - Anne Frank
