Early voting is underway for Prop 50 in California.

I urge anyone in the state to vote yes.

This isn’t a race to the bottom. It’s a means of avoiding the bottom. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/what-blue-states-should-do-when-red

What are they hiding? asks Pentagon reporter Barbara Starr PLUS -- Trump's invasion of Illinois is (another) seminal moment.

NEWS: The Pentagon is considering sending the elite military unit that invaded Iraq & Afghanistan into U.S. cities.

The 82nd Airborne Division.

Wake up, people. This not about petty theft and street crime.

I co-wrote Trump’s first anti-terrorism plan in 2017-18. He’s not trying to stop β€œleft-wing” terrorism. He is staging it.

His troop deployments are a false flag β€” meant to provoke a response in order to justify harsh crackdowns.

This is now very obvious.

Border Czar Tom Homan was caught by the FBI accepting bribes - on camera - to deliver government contracts in exchange for $50,000 in cash.

Pam Bondi knew.

Kash Patel knew.

Emil Bove knew.

And they made the investigation go away.

A corrupt attempt to conceal brazen graft.

THIS is the original ANTIFA logo from WW2.
THIS is their mission. They have been the good guys for 80 years...until Sean Hannity decided that you can't have a resistance to right wing fascism.
It's amazing to me that so many Americans who's relatives fought and died for this, now believe anti-fascist are the bad guys.
Which by default makes Nazis and fascist their
"good guys""

Political violence is evil, killing people is evil, a country with more guns in it than people is broken, and what the government is saying about political violence right now being a primarily leftwing phenomenon is factually, statistically untrue. They are using this moment to rewrite history.

Trump is planning a crackdown on anti-conservative thought and speech to cripple the opposition and rig the 2026 elections. If you want to support Democracy Docket's pro-democracy mission, now would be a great time to sign up. hubs.ly/Q03jcjqP0

No, Ezra Klein, Charlie Kirk wasn't β€œpracticing politics the right way.” He promoted racism, sexism, homophobia and xenophobia. Kirk had every right to express his political views, and his death is an outrage. But no one who believes in peace and love should praise what he was doing to our politics.

I know Charlie Kirk valued debate and free speech because he blocked me for fact-checking his lies on Twitter and then put me on his organization's Professor Watchlist for writing a book he didn't like.

We're in the money

We've got a lot of what it takes to get along
We're in the money
The sky is sunny
Old man depression, you are through you done us wrong, oh
We never see a headline
'Bout a breadline today
And when we see the landlord
We can look that guy right in the eye

hello there. Thank you! I wish I could just post it someplace but, alas, all of my music for Girls is owned and controlled by HBO. I know there is a large community of folks discovering the show for the first time and if enough people reach out to HBO maybe something could happen. You never know!

It seems to me an important aspect of the sidelining of Stephen Colbert by the pressures of this regime is not only to restrain his political views and criticisms, but also to silence one of the very few mass media personalities occasionally giving voice to actual Christian theology

β€œIndependence day is canceled because of fear of secret police raids” is really a level of on the nose political symbolism you just can’t make up.

The new ICE recruits everyone keeps saying are proud boys or whatever may be linked to hate groups but they are primarily US military. Trump is circumventing the whole β€œinsurrection act” thing by just hiring them as contractors. These are traitors violating their oath.
