Did you see this today?

Anti #ICE protesters carried a MASSIVE U.S.
Constitution through the streets of Minneapolis.
Not a flag.
Not a slogan.
The Constitution.
Thousands marched, demanding accountability and asking whether federal enforcement is aligning with the rights written on those pages.

It's kind of insane: the obvious lane open today in US politics is fiery left populism that vows to restrain & discipline the Epstein class ... but our only left party is run by that same class & its quisling pundits! Something is gonna break.

Seems the right thing to do is to ask the people from Kipnik what they want with as much scientific and logistical help and info they need.

Maybe "more than moderately ample to the point, but just short of, way too much" might be more technical. πŸ‘

Epstein survivor Danielle Bensky: Don't let this be about politics. 1 in 4 women have been abused, and there are men who have been abused as well. To just not even acknowledge survivors is just beyond disheartening and a slap in the face.

It remains a sly marketing move to use the term "Natural Gas" instead of Methane. Like "Natural"oats brought to you by Kellogg.

From my perspective, having conducted supported decision analysis for public involvement groups for about ten years, I suggest so-called neuro-typicals are more ingrained with all the cognitive biases Kahneman&Tversky talked about in their research.

The world heard JD Vance being booed at the Olympics. Except for viewers in the US | Bryan Armen Graham The real risk for American broadcasters is not that dissent will be visible. It is that audiences will start assuming anything they do not show is being hidden

"The world heard JD Vance being booed at the Olympics. Except for viewers in the US. The modern Olympics sell themselves on a simple premise: the whole world, watching the same moment, at the same time. On Fri night in Milan, that illusion fractured in real time." www.theguardian.com/sport/2026/f...

This is the ad that Fox News does NOT want you to see.

Fox News rejected our newest ad, which demonstrates that Trump has β€œgone too far” with ICE.

But we will not remain silent in the face of these attacks.

Share our ad and follow @usjewishdems.bsky.social to join us in the fight.

Lutnick and Epstein were in business together, Epstein files show Though the commerce secretary has called his interactions with Epstein as "limited," the two were in business together four years after Epstein's 2008 guilty plea.

(CBS News) - U.S. Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick has said he had "limited interactions" with Jeffrey Epstein, but documents show they were in business together as recently as 2014.

The Washington Post has laid off least 14 climate journalists, newsroom sources told @sammyroth.bsky.social, effectively decimating one of the most important reporting teams in American climate journalism.

A sad, terrifying, enraging day for the planet.
