FOX News is pure Russian sponsored programming.

Things just keep getting more unhinged. The rhetoric coming out of the MAGA is fueling dangerous escalation. Democratic state lawmakers who left Texas to block the GOP’s redistricting scheme had to be evacuated from their suburban Chicago hotel due to a potential bomb threat, according to police.

Jeanine Pirro: First of all, I miss Fox. I love everybody.

Government is hard. I work at least 12 hours a day. You have to pay for water. Let me tell you, they waste millions.
She’s been U.S. Attorney for D.C. for 4 days.

#Texas Democratic officials who have fled the state and disrupted their lives are heroes. In the end they might not prevent the illegal gerrymandering. But they are inspiring millions of people to rebel against the fascism! God bless Texas .

I will gladly let any TX Democrat room at my house as needed. Tx Dems are fighting. Thanks brave souls.

We've faced threats to our leadership out of
financial stability and even bomb threats undermining our safety.

Rotten to the core!

80 years ago, the US dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima.

We remember the thousands who were killed in a crime against humanity, as well as the survivors who carried the pain of the past.

Today, let us honour them by vowing to rid our world of nuclear weapons once and for all.

No biggie, just an American president suggesting the federal government would take over New York City if he doesn’t like who they choose as mayor.

Will of the people, be damned.

As @wkamaubell.bsky.social says,
“That is called FASCISM!”

The nation's landmark voting rights law just turned 60. It may not survive Trump. “The long-term game is to repeal the Voting Rights Act.”

Voting Rights Act turns 60 today. I've studied VRA for 15 years. Most people don't realize just how much it transformed American democracy, ended Jim Crow & enfranchised millions of Americans

Now it’s on life support. If it dies, American democracy dies with it www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Trump is weak. AOC is way too smart and strong for rapist Trump.

Hey, I love baseball. Go Giants Reds, A’s and Twins.

Diego Castillo is wearing his white Dominican Republic jersey during the WBC. He’s on the mound and looking concerned (he probably gave up a bunch of home runs)

That last inning of the Mariners game:

Sections of the US Constitution have vanished from a government website. What happened? Two sections of Article 1 of the U.S. Constitution have disappeared on an official government website.

🧵 1/5 Official congressional website page, Constitution Annotated on constitution.congress.gov, is blaming the disappearance of sections detailing habeas corpus protections & rights & limitations of state governments, that according to Wayback machine were made in the past month, on a coding error!

Let me get this straight. The Vice President of the United States of America and numerous administration officials are meeting this evening for a private meeting to discuss how to protect the President from accusations regarding sex trafficking and abuse of children.

Did I get that right?

I.C.E. is now a recruitment center for the worst of society. It’s also a literal Army he is building to prevent his removal from office. Recruiting the National Guard to assist ICE? Don’t be fooled.

It’s great to be back in New York City. I spent a good deal of my childhood and teenage years in and around NYC. I’ve been back to promote my new book, “Coming Up Short.”

I’m promising myself this is my last book tour. (Of course, I made the same promise with the last book.)

AMERICAN TALIBAN

Ron DeMoron just signed a law banning abortion in Florida.

Kentucky and Oklahoma also banned abortion this week

For the GOP religion and state are one. There is no separation

Fight to your last breath. We must leave a democracy to our kids.

I’m old enough to remember when every month during the Biden presidency the media said recession was just around the corner. Well we’ve turned the corner and lo and behold Trump is there and he is driving us down the hell hole.
