Allies are pulling the plug. 🇨🇦🇳🇱🇲🇽🇬🇧. Canada, Netherlands, Mexico, and the UK have curbed or stopped sharing intel with Trump’s America. When your friends stop trusting you with secrets, you’re not leading the free world anymore you are the risk.

I just went to the House floor to demand that Speaker Johnson swear in Adelita Grijalva, but the GOP gaveled out without even recognizing us.
We’re not going anywhere. I’m here with Leader Jeffries and Adelita Grijalva. Speaker Johnson must swear her in.
“Why are they calling Trump a king?”
It's worth stating very plainly that Trump is not, in fact, making America great again, or at all. www.thebulwark.com/p/heiress-so...
Raskin details how he tried to get unanimous consent today to force Johnson to swear in Adelita Grijalva, but the Acting Speaker Haridopolos "scurried out of the room"
"We are an authoritarian country with an autocratic leader who is acting in the ways that the heads of police states act.
That's where we are. To suggest it's around the corner is to be as divorced from reality as a president who thinks there's a war going on in Portland."

Here are all the states Russ Vought announced just today he would be illegally stealing taxpayer dollars from.
Have we ever had a President work so hard to hurt the people he represents? I'm not going to be intimidated by these crooks.
Elizabeth Warren: "The president said 'I am going to impose a lot more pain on my fellow American citizens. I'm going to impose a lot more pain on people in NY who need to use those tunnels so I can get my way politically.' To me, that is a place to stop & say, then we're ready to fight about this"
…
The US is going to bailout Argentina with your tariff money.
Let that sink in
No idea what this Oval Office announcement is.
Could be resigning
Could be apologizing because Stephen Miller molted all over the Residence and someone caught staff dumping the exuviae out of the window
Could be clarifying that tariff revenue is really eleventy three trillion
Well of course 😊😊
Netflix just gave Gavin Newsom 2 million for the redistricting fight and made a deal with Sesame Street. New episodes will air there and the backlog of old episodes will Be free to watch.
Netflix picked a side. I will keep my subscription.
Today's a good day to learn Colbert found a new job.
Hope it's a good one for everybody!

What new horror did the Supreme Court unleash this afternoon?
At @lawdorknews.bsky.social, I explain: “In short, seven justices are allowing eight people to be sent to South Sudan.”
Read my full report at Law Dork now:
ICE now has 3x more funding than the United States Marine Corps. Our hard-earned taxpayer money. Over $170+ billion handed over, and for what?
To rip families apart. To instill fear. To dismantle the very virtues by which this country was built. To help the rich get richer.
“By deploying the Civil Rights Act against the very people it was created to protect, conservatives hope to get as close to their ultimate goal as possible: repealing it.” @nhannahjones.bsky.social — indispensable as always — in the @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2025/06/27/m...
Marine veteran sentenced life in prison for plotting to attack an FBI office and assassinate law enforcement officers in retaliation for his arrest on charges that he was part of the mob that stormed the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021

“Donald Trump's shortsighted, ugly, terrible, horrible, no good, very bad bill
"The Big Beautiful Bill is cruel and inhumane - unless you are in the top income bracket."
BY THE INQUIRER EDITORIAL BOARD
What the actual hell?! A close Trump advisor and MAGA figure just posted, “Alligator lives matter. The good news is alligators are guaranteed 65 million meals if we get started now.” This is disgusting, it’s genocidal language. Dehumanizing, dangerous, and unacceptable. How is this even real life?
I predict an increase in terrorist attacks on US targets while US law enforcement agencies are busy picking up day laborers at Home Depot.
History is only useful to those that have the intellect to study and understand it. Completely over the MAGA brain. SO SAD.
Our entire government has been hijacked by a fascist pedophile freakshow
"The bill directs what is likely the largest single sale of national public lands in modern history..."

ICE deports Florida pastor's wife even though judge issued stay of deportation order. She was denied her medication—shackled by wrist, stomach & ankles, leaving severe bruising.
Daughters: "We paid everything they asked us, filled out forms, and not skipping anything.”

Trump’s attempts to dehumanize large segments of the American people in order to use military force against them fits the classic definition of “tyranny,” and right wing rhetoric using the phrase “third world” to justify it is no accident (gift link) www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...
I promise y’all: marching in step is quite easy. Nothing difficult about it. That bad marching was intentional. I guarantee it.
