82 years ago today my grandfather, who lied about his age to enlist in the military, was in one of the first waves of landing crafts to hit the beaches of Normandy. He's been gone a long time now, but today I remember him and the other brave souls who fought and died for a righteous cause.

“Screwworm monitoring among foreign aid programs killed by Trump” - Agri Pulse, March 2025

If the farmers in Wisconsin thought Trump was going to come to your state and talk about solutions to the problems and issues you are facing right now, you were sorely mistaken. Because Trump doesn’t give a fuck about you. Never has never will. He wants your vote and money.

I’ve never seen one man so desperate to prove his masculinity

We must impeach and remove Donald Trump. And we will. #NY12

What we're seeing at Delaney Hall is symptomatic of what we saw in Minneapolis and across the country. It needs to stop. We need to abolish ICE, and we must restore a sensible, legal, and humane immigration policy. #NY12

Character consists of many elements. Physical courage, of course, is high among them, and on this anniversary of D-Day, we rightly remember, first and foremost, that of the soldiers who stormed the beaches and scaled the cliffs of Normandy and who risked and gave their lives for us.

Kelly: What are the American people getting out of this conflict with Iran right now? Iran wasn’t about to develop a nuclear weapon. Their enrichment went up because Donald Trump tore up the JCPOA. So this conflict is of Donald Trump’s doing and making.

Trump implies tax returns offset the high prices in his economy

No, Toddkins, we know you’re not ignoring them. You are painfully aware of them. You’re just working that much harder to hide the truth about the wealthy sex pests implicated by them. Like the crappy oaf in the Oval Office.

This Republican ad attacking Ken Paxton for using secret Uber alias “Dave P.” to hide his affair is still up on YouTube.

Meanwhile, Dem candidate (and former governor) Roy Cooper is breaking down Canes playoff wins in his custom Canes sweater on the local sports talk show with @joeovies.bsky.social and Joe Giglio www.youtube.com/live/vSYl7yO...

Republican nominee for US Senate in NC Michael Whatley really loves the Carolina Hurricanes hockey team but when asked to name a single player on their roster twice he can’t do it.

Trump appears to be completely passed out asleep during his 3pm Oval Office announcement

Watch Our New Ad 🔥 Donald Trump is shredding our Constitution. I’ve committed my life to defending it. And now I’m running for Congress because to stop Trump from erasing our democracy, we need to fight.

John Cornyn posts editorial calling for Congress to “put a stake through” Trump’s retribution slush fund

Sen. Mark Warner: "Do you know does Mr. Pulte even have a security clearance?" Scott Bessent: "Uh, Senator, I do not." Sen. Warner: "Okay. and being head of the FHFA, isn't that a full-time job?" Bessent: "It's it's a very important position." bluevirginia.us/2026/06/sen-...

Sen. Hassan: "Mr. Secretary, how does the president's requested billion-dollar ballroom or all of these other vanity products lower costs for American families or help constrain spending?" Bessent: "…It is a national security matter." Sen. Hassan: "That's ridiculous, and I think you know it."

NEW UPDATE: At least 40 pardoned insurrectionists have faced other criminal charges since January 6, 2021—with 12 offending since Trump’s pardon. That includes child sex abuse, weapons, reckless driving and rape, underscoring the public safety threat posed by the pardons.

Van Hollen to Marco Rubio: "This is your first public hearing since President Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu launched an illegal war against Iran. Netanyahu said he's been waiting 40 years to do this...he finally found a president who was both stupid and reckless enough to join him."

I'm a huge fan of Dolly Parton. We're the same age and height, but she can sing better. Shame on Missouri Republicans for slashing funding to Dolly's Imagination Library, which provides free books to over 170,000 children every month. They must reverse these cuts immediately.

office holders (other than Grenell) that he put in there I viewed as credentialed. Putting Tulsi Gabbard in for Trump 2.0 was a real "uhhh, OK" moment and her tenure made clear she was never there to serve as the DNI so much as she was there to feed into Trump's conspiracies. But Bill Pulte? GTFO

WOW. So Blanche won't rescind the tax immunity. Was the entire charade just a cover to grant Trump tax immunity? Blanche claims that part of the "settlement" still stands. This is somehow MORE CORRUPT.

This is the same person who tried to weaponize mortgage information to go after the President’s enemies. This man has no business being anywhere near our national intelligence and security agencies. ⬇️

Now this is a concert. 🎵

If Thomas Massie is ever right, this is it.

Glad some in the pentagon are alarmed!

The Pentagon has appointed a former Citadel cadet and J6 convict to one of the most sensitive top-secret posts in the DoD. He has none of the relevant experience that would make him eligible for the 40-person team. wapo.st/437arYG

Incredible! Scientists receive a rare standing ovation after announcing that a new treatment can double the survival time for pancreatic cancer, the deadliest cancer which was once considered “undruggable.” When we fund and support science, we can achieve anything! (Video: Dr. Wish Dhillon)

Exclusive: The disgraced former congressman allegedly bet on whether he would appear at the State of the Union address, prompting federal investigations.

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

MORELLE: Is it your testimony that if somebody paid the president $1m for a pardon, that would not violate the law? BLANCHE: No M: So if someone wrote in the memo of a check 'for the issuance of a pardon,' would that be a violation of law? B: I think you would have to impeach the president

Dr Oz: "We believe that 35 percent of the people using the Obamacare exchanges may not be legit. That's 5, 6 million people. We have to evaluate these numbers. They are extremely concerning."

Rep. Madeleine Dean: "What is true is that the president has lied about being on Epstein's plane, and the unredacted files prove that. There's a lot in here. It's all covered up."

Republican attack ad: “Why Does Ken Paxton Go Easy on Child Predators?

How can any member of Congress vote for a big budget increase for the Trump War Machine Pentagon when they go to absurd extremes to hide everything they are doing from the American people?

Vote

BREAKING: we are NOT accepting media reports as proof that the $1.8B slush fund & "settlements" associated with it are dead That's why we @democracydefendersfund.org have just filed a new lawsuit to make sure this ENDS --on behalf of former J6 prosecutors with Platkin LLP, WLG & Heaphy Smith

Thank you Scott Pelley. You are a true journalist and you said what we are all thinking. CBS is being murdered in the name of Child-Rapist Trump. I truly hope more journalists take cues from your bravery and stand up against these fools aligned with the Worst President America has ever seen. https

This creates long-term damage to US military. "In a move that disproportionately targets women and minority officers... Hegseth recently blocked the promotions of at least seven Navy officers." GOP and Dems on Armed Services Committee upset by these moves, with senior DoD unable to explain.
