@avindman.bsky.social should demand that Moody call on Trump to pay his E Jean Carroll bills.

I guess given Boris' involvement we should have assumed Bannon wasn't far behind the law firm kickback system. news.bloomberglaw.com/business-and...

US President Donald Trump shared this image yesterday of a massive fire and smoke, claiming it showed "retribution" for Iranian attacks on ships traversing the Strait of Hormuz. But the picture is an AI-altered version of a photo taken over a year ago in June 2025 factcheck.afp.com/doc.afp.com....

this dude had to go to a planning commission and listen to 45 activists rattle off the thousand reasons they brought before it fucking dawned on him that Nobody Fucking Wants This. He had to be in a literal room before he finally learned how to read the room

Do we know how many students transferred recently to a school in a different state? www.mediaite.com/media/news/o...

I’m sorry what?

The Math is still mathematically doing what it does. Numbers don’t lie but Billionaires do. #Pinks

this is one of the many small changes Trump is making in his attempt to manipulate the midterms

ICE claims that Araujo drove into one of their SUVs with his van and then tried to run over an agent. There were no marks on the van and KHOU11's Jeremy Rogalski found surveillance footage showing ICE chasing Araujo and cutting him off. Renee Good all over again.

Mitch McConnell and I made love last night for 20 minutes. He admitted he hadn't felt that alive in years. "I'll walk proudly back into the Senate," he said, "but I won't be standing up straight." He winked at me and we both laughed as I told him to turn back around and went back to fucking him.

They’re pretending Mitch McConnell is still alive so they can collect his Social Security.

talked to Mitch McConnell for 20 minutes today and he was like “wow that lasted 40,000,000 years for me, time moves really differently down here”

i was prank called by Mitch McConnell today. he adopted an offensive Indian accent to disguise his voice and began to insist that my daughter had kicked his dog, then verbally abused me when i denied this

WTAF!?!

Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was gunned down by ICE, leaving behind a devastated family & an angry community. @lulacorg.bsky.social's Juan Proaño joins me for the very latest, including how the family is being prevented from being able to secure Lorenzo’s body for a funeral. youtu.be/Rb-XzJfeqsk?...

NEWS --> Three men who were in the van with the victim of the ICE shooting in Texas are potential witnesses, but they're now under pressure to self-deport, a rep for the families tells me. They remain in detention even as ICE's story falters. Details in this piece: newrepublic.com/article/2129...

This was supposed to read: “I am actually NOT shocked, as the number . . . AI” 😔 Why, yes. I am tired today!

Yeah, and we didn’t enjoy it just like we’re not enjoying this. We didn’t enjoy having horrible memories of the worst things and realizing not only are we not safe anywhere but people have the deepest contempt for us after we are harmed. And fearing for very young girls and how they might suffer.

📌Waiting for the MSM to descend on Maine to start non-stop bombarding Susan Collins for supporting a racist and alleged rapist for the Supreme Court.

“But the bigger problem is how much of the media of ‘the left’ is dominated by men who appear to have no understanding of sexual abuse or intimate partner violence, but do have a pretty hefty sexist streak that they either aren’t aware of or don’t care to remedy.” YES @juliedicaro.bsky.social

Well, he also said Islamic state of Japan. Fuck the news media for not screaming this from the rooftops.

Trump said he would end the war in Ukraine on day one, if not sooner. It is Day 534 and no end in sight Trump said his war with Iran would last four weeks. We are now in week 19 and the fighting continues with no end in sight In the meantime, his family & friends are getting rich off these wars

If Joe Biden had ever ...

News embargo accidental hilarity: Spouse is on a news embargo. Last night, he says to me & adult child that a co-worker mentioned something strange to him. He asks us if Trump actually wanted his head carved on Stone Mountain. After correction he opined that Stone Mtn might actually be fitting.👍🏽

This whole auction oh my god www.sothebys.com/en/buy/aucti...

Trump called Zelenskyy "Putin" multiple times during their meeting. This is like calling Churchill "Hitler". That is not just Trump being Trump. This is his brain decaying in front of our eyes; if there ever was doubt he has dementia: It's without doubt now.

I should say Judge Kaplan's order authorized release of funds to Carroll's atty. I haven't confirmed that she's got them yet. Also last night, Judge Kaplan issued a 6-page explanation of his order refusing to delay disbursement: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

As long as we’re saying the constitution is optional, let’s start taking wrongly accused citizens’ legal fees out of the pockets of DOJ lawyers who participate in these scams

I’m sorry, but this is gross and no cannot imagine that no one noticed and, beyond that, that no one said anything (France, England, and Iran):

ABC NEWS: "Unfortunately, there has been another death of a Mexican national in the United States for being detained, when that person's only offense was lacking immigration documents, even though they had been hired by an American company," President Claudia Sheinbaum told reporters Wednesday.

This is like Jeffrey Epstein lecturing us on feminism.

At her sentencing, Judge Dugan said: “For more than a year, the circumstances of this prosecution have been politicized. I have been cast as both a scofflaw and a hero. I am neither. I am a public servant who was just trying to do my job.”

This is what he's done since the 70s. Delay delay delay, appeal, appeal again, delay, appeal, repeat. And he's never faced consequences for doing so There's a massive difference between "court ordered trump to..." vs the order actually being followed. Media still haven't caught up to this.

How many times can this bastard appeal?

While the president muddling up his words is not necessarily a new thing, @sarahmatthews1.bsky.social argues the double standard we have for what coverage of this would look like under Biden as opposed to Trump now would be astronomically different.

I keep forgetting. You know what's even grosser? The way they substituted the word "quickly" for "anyway." Like he was such a good guy because he apparently dropped everything to rush over and...rape her.

A woman could text “I need you to come over and bang the shit out of me,” and then *still* say no once he gets there And she’s changed her mind. There is no “it’s not rape because there was a flirty text first” caveat.

I am so getting sick of the wealthy having infinite chances at everything.

And now Trump is appealing Judge Kaplan's order, earlier today, releasing $5 M+ in funds to E. Jean Carroll.

The SCOTUS petition for rehearing was filed on July 6, but rebuffed by the court sometime on July 7. I got that wrong in my first post. So it's likely Trump's atty didn't know it had been "not accepted for filing" when he filed his brief before Judge Kaplan, also on July 7.

Trump asks Judge Kaplan not to release $5.8M from court escrow to E Jean Carroll claiming his "petition for rehearing [of cert denial!] remains pending before SCOTUS." But SCOTUS docket shows his petition was "not accepted for filing" on July 6. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Here’s the problem: we can no longer believe the government when it makes these kinds of statements after its agents kill someone. That’s a very dangerous place for a democracy to be. Read the full analysis here: open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

ICE may have moved off the front page, but another man is dead after an encounter with agents, and the administration is still defending detention without bond. This is why we keep watching, even when the headlines move on. Read today’s Civil Discourse: joycevance.substack.com/p/ice-still-...

How many Republicans have committed voter fraud in the last few years? Seems like a lot.

I missed this when it came out last week (my bad), but Inhighly recommend this article. I think Andrew Lawrence eeaves Together a lot of stuff nicely in this article—stuff about grievance and misplaced blame/responsibility and fandom and gridges in search of a vehicle:

"Everyone ... should be concerned about the DOJ's ability to utilize the power of the grand jury to appropriate your private information without a legitimate purpose." (Quashing grand jury subpoena seeking personal info on thousands of Fulton Co election workers.)

Welp. That’s pretty monstrous. In addition to violating common decency and ethics (which, yeah, we know this regimen is devoid of both), it seems like it would go against international law in re seeking asylum—though obviously that likely has no teeth (IANAL).
