That Trump / Mamdani press conference was so weird. Donald was so tame, like Zohran was taking a pig for a walk.

The old way of thinking must die, the folks who are unable to evolve must go away. They aren't built for this fight or made for this moment and they can't let go of that sweet corporate money.

Trump wants the Supreme Court to "pardon" her with a reversal so he doesn't have to get his hands dirty.
🚨 NEW: Ghislaine Maxwell files a reply brief to SCOTUS to toss her conviction, saying the U.S. violated its own immunity deal when it prosecuted her.

Just ahead of the Independence Day long weekend, beaches across the country have closed and issued advisories due to excessive levels of fecal waste.
Dozens of beaches close before July Fourth weekend due to fecal bacteria

The Supreme Court’s decision in the LGBTQ books case lays bare the extent to which the justices exist in a bubble. They don’t interact with anyone other than wealthy conservative Christian lawyers. The law exists to protect people like them, and no one else. ballsandstrikes.org/scotus/mahmo...

Nonstop trucks with construction materials going into the immigration detention facility being built right now in the Everglades. Whoever doesn’t think this will have a harmful environmental impact is lying to themselves.

Unbelievable. Latest update from the nonpartisan budget office says the Senate Republican bill now cuts nearly $1 TRILLION from Medicaid.

so a long while ago i said the reconciliation bill impacts on renewable energy disturbed me more than what it would do to my own health care.

a bold statement, to be sure! but on the potential eve of the senate passing some pretty aggressive attacks on renewable energy, i wanna explain…

Make sure the "not in constitutional crisis yet" people see this one.
WELKER: Your secretary of state says everyone who's here, citizens and non-citizens, deserve due process. Do you agree?

TRUMP: I don't know. I'm not a lawyer. I don't know.

WELKER: Don't you need to uphold the Constitution?

TRUMP: I don't know

Trump and RFK Jr. are hoping to use the facade of science to falsely legitimize their lies and quackery.

Their plan looks something like this:

Garbage Questions + Garbage Methods = Pre-Conceived Hypotheses

But that's not how science works!

‘This Is Not How We Do Science, Ever’
The Trump administration is manipulating government-sponsored research to get the answers it wants.

Stephen Miller is manipulating Trump on this stuff. It might be a shrewd move for Democrats to message that in order to drive a wedge between Trump and his most loyal acolyte. It could even be an achievable goal, since Miller is just a sweaty extremist ghoul and not the richest man in the world.
What's really on the line right now is that we urgently need to thwart the radical authoritarian right's long march through all our institutions. The people manipulating Trump have a grand vision. But they're overreaching.

See this bracing exchange with Jeff Sachs:

Remember when US troops tortured Iraqi prisoners?
They ultimately paid because that’s abuse of power & a disgusting display against humanity.
We now have this vile mindset running our government but imho their time in power is limited. All evil players will pay. Let your conscience be your guide.
