Shit like this is why I have trust issues with some senate candidates.

The largest war ship in the world has been moved to the Caribbean, along with other ships, bombers, amphibious vehicles and more.

That’s a lot of firepower to stop small vessels carrying drugs.

It looks a lot more like preparation for war.

Congress needs to get involved before it’s too late.

REV. BLACK (who was shot in the head with a pepper ball): “If this is what they’re doing to pastors, journalists, teachers, mothers, and the elderly gathered to sing and pray outside ICE facilities… what might they be doing to our neighbors who are behind those walls?”

The President of the United States is so upset about his failed campaign for a Nobel Prize that he's now trying to claim someone else's prize as his own.

Pathetic.
Wow, she was granted a motion of "First of all..." Extra pages because the prosecution is such garbage. If you come for the queen, you better not miss. Well done, Honorable Attorney General Letitia James. Sad trombone noises for the prosecution.

A (particularly) lengthy argument from New York Attorney General Letitia James is forthcoming... when she argues for dismissal of her criminal case for "vindictive prosecution"

China bought 27 million metric tons of soybeans from US farmers in 2024. But somehow this “deal” to buy significantly less is a huge victory.

Fired for thinking a dangerous nut is not above the law?

But if you don't make a shrine to Charlie Kirk in your living room, you can be arrested?

These prosecutors were fired because Jan 6 rioters were acting *for* Trump--and Donald would have been pleased to see Obama and his family killed.

Stagflation

The Fed Chair is describing stagflation but does not want to say the word.
Powell: "In the near term, risks to inflation are tilted to the upside, and risks to employment to the downside -- a challenging situation. There is no risk-free path for policy as we navigate this tension between our employment and inflation goals."

James Talarico (D-TX) is going to make one hell of a US Senator. He just gets it, the system is rigged for the wealthy and well connected but we the people have the power to take it back. Musk, Bezos and Zuckerberg own more wealth than 165 million Americans combined. Watch👇💥🔥
Every year there are elections. Can we please stop acting like local elections don't matter? Find out when your elections are. Get registered. Check your registration frequently. Bring whatever you need per laws. Grab a few friends. And GO VOTE.
Next year ‘35 Senate seats’ and ‘435 House seats’ are on the ballot.

Let's make it possible to impeach, remove, arrest, convict and imprison!!

It is our last shot.

Vote like it. 😎✨
Translation: the current government is so fucking incompetent/corrupt that I am having to do the nearly impossible with, apparently, the only tool at my disposal.

I quite enjoyed a lot of the takedowns of Bill Gates' EA brain snap on climate. It is really deadassed in a number of ways.

But no-one mentioned the most important thing. He isn't *just* full of shit. He knows he is full of shit.

I can prove it: timinclimate.medium.com/even-bill-ga...

Did you hear about that “one low-income country set out to cut emissions by banning synthetic fertilizers”?

What a lying piece of shit the vice president of the United States is. Wow.
JD Vance on the NY Post Pod Force One Podcast: "If you remember all of the migrants who came in from Haiti. You blink and eye and literally a third of your town is Haitian immigrants eating cats and dogs."

DHS says our new piece is "dishonest, slanted, and fundamentally inaccurate" but won't say why. Here's the story where we show with evidence that DHS spliced together clips spanning years and multiple locations to create its own reality. Gift link wapo.st/4nuDGwf

No comparison. When Biden so much as tripped, it was a week-long story. When Trump has no idea where he is and drifts off mid-event— media silence.

This isn’t the first time. What’s up?!

I can't emphasize this enough: millions of Americans live in a fascist bubble. They think we're terrorists who want to kill them. One of the aims in my next book is to demonstrate, with 2000 as an almost arbitrary baseline, how GOP propagandists slowly turned this into common sense.
Lawyers for the government tell Ellis it would be “frankly, dangerous” for her to ban agents from using tear gas.

Lawyers for the plaintiffs scoff at the notion that it would be dangerous to prevent agents from tear gassing residents of Chicago.

The president had a MRI but won't say why.

He had bruises on his hands but wouldn't say why.

He just had an 'annual medical' even though he already had his annual medical.

He got shot in the ear but has never released the medical records relating to it.

How is any of this ok?

TWO CAN PLAY THAT GAME: The official Massachusetts SNAP website now warns that Trump is “choosing not to issue November SNAP benefits that help you and many families put food on the table.” It also warns of cuts due to “Congressional Republicans and President Trump” in the “One Big Beautiful Bill.”

I could not be prouder that my law firm is currently litigating 60 voting, election and redistricting cases in 30 states. Even as large law firms bow down, we continue to fight for democracy every single day.
