Comey: Well, they're back. This time about a picture of seashells on a North Carolina beach a year ago. And this won't be the end of it. But nothing has changed with me. I'm still innocent. I'm still not afraid. And I still believe in the independent federal judiciary. So let's go.

Why? The Trump administration gave the event a lower security classification than other gatherings of high-ranking officials even with the president and multiple Cabinet members in attendance. Seems strange for an administration that wants IDs for everything.

The amount of misinformation we’re getting about an incident that just occurred in front of 1,500 news reporters is truly the metaphor of our generation.

The Secret Service, oddly enough, made JD Vance the security priority during the initial evacuation. A visibly terrified Vance was ushered away to safety. Trump tripped while trying to tell the Secret Service about his Ball Room.

I'm watching with the sound off and I'm honestly just enjoying seeing the staff be able to clean up with way fewer dipshits around.

The Justice Department just identified 384 naturalized Americans whose citizenship it wants to revoke and they won’t say why they picked those 384 people specifically.

BREAKING: The YES vote will WIN Virginia’s redistricting referendum, allowing Democrats to redraw maps ahead of the midterms and potentially flip the state from 6–5 to 10–1 — a four-seat swing that could decide control of Congress.

WOW: A stunning new report in the WSJ reveals that military advisers intentionally excluded Donald Trump from the command room during the recent high-stakes operation to extract a downed U.S. airman in Iran, because they feared his erratic behavior could jeopardize the mission. 1/

Losing hope is exactly what they want us to do. While the vote against the Boundary Waters is fresh on our minds, the work continues.    Headed to Greater Minnesota now to keep up the fight. We have so much to do to tackle corporate greed in areas like housing and health care.

“I’m so glad to have all my kiddos under the same roof again—it’s just so nice it worked out this way!” Leslie Daniels said as she cheerfully stirred a big batch of chili for her three adult children

Not to mention #1 in giving billionaires tax cuts and having the middle class pay more taxes.

L.L. Bean has taken the position that it won’t support the Save the Forest Service movement, with messaging along the lines of avoiding political engagement.

Bot activity is picking up again. MAGA accounts (many of them automated or coordinated) are flooding social media with AI photos and videos right now. Two things they’re pushing hard is fake crowd shots to make massive protests look empty, and fabricated imagery to make peaceful demonstrators

DHS deported a US citizen to Mexico. Brian Morales is 25 years old who was born in Denver. Pulled over in Texas with his construction crew. Didn’t have his ID on him and told officers he could get his birth certificate, Social Security card, and medical records from home.

Our relationship arts and crafts time is cannibalizing my various microphone mounts so her Switch 2 will fit in a kindle holder.

A win! A federal judge just ordered the government to hand over evidence from ICE agent Jonathan Ross’s killing of Renee Good.

BREAKING: House Republicans block the Democrats’ attempt to pass an Iran War Powers Resolution—refusing even to allow a vote. During a pro forma session, Rep. Glenn Ivey sought unanimous consent to advance the measure. Presiding GOP Rep. Chris Smith ignored the request and abruptly gaveled out.

Can’t trust a word they say. They’re lying about what they’re doing in Minnesota and across the country. This is exactly why I’m not voting for a single penny for ICE or CBP without massive, agency-wide changes.

Behind the scenes, U.S. officials reportedly threatened and pressured the Vatican, warning that America’s military power gives it the ability to act without restraint and pushing the Church to fall in line. Source: aaronparnas.substack.com/p/news-cease...

Oh, this is good. Idaho passed a bill banning local cities from flying the Pride flag. So the cities decided to wrap the poles themselves in pride colors. This is amazing.

Love notes I text while my parter works an overnight: "Cabin note: Pop Tarts makes ice cream sandwiches now."

🔥 HASAN: “There’s a battle brewing — against not only the corrupt, fascist forces of the Republican Party… but also against do-nothing Dems that fundraise from corporate donors and put YOUR interests 2nd… Remember: every dollar spent on a bomb is stolen from YOU.”

Another question: When read from the perspective of someone who has played both assailant and victim his entire life... does this sound like a suicide note? Is the civilization MAGA?

Donald Trump is what happened when the GOP got everything they wanted.

I can't tell if he's threatening Iran or the United States anymore, and I'm not sure he can either. Reread it.

BIG BREAKING: Just spoke with my CDC sources. They said RFK Jr. has ordered a complete pause on infectious diseases testing, which includes rabies, tuberculosis, mumps, and hantavirus. RFK Jr. wants to freely move these infectious diseases among the people. Please spread this message widely.

You could have had free universal healthcare this entire time. The money was always there.

Anyone else hearing this read by Sean Bean in Civilization 8?

I got Soul Asylum - Can't Even Tell in my first couple clicks. I'm happy.

Nailed it.

He’s pushing a massive defense increase not for strategy, but for loyalty. Flooding the system with money to align power around him. He’ll reward the people with force and influence. it’s about building a power base that protects him. It’s not about the war in Iran. This is a coup.

We are seven months away from the most consequential midterm election in US history. Meanwhile, we are fighting a war. These are the structural conditions for a coup attempt in which a president tries to nullify elections and take permanent power as a dictator. snyder.substack.com/p/the-next-c...

When I first saw The Running Man as a kid, I never imagined I'd live to those days.

We need your help. The Trump administration is dismantling the U.S. Forest Service. 193 million acres of public land (bigger than Texas) is being handed over to political operatives and industry insiders.

How did we know that Trump would take one action after another from Day 1 of his presidency that would benefit Putin while weakening our alliances? Just a lucky guess.

Great speech, dude.
