Congratulations on learning absolutely nothing about making deals with him, Senator.

Rude idiot hogging double seats on a crowded train

On a packed train, this person sprawls out to hog a 2-seater. In a world of greater injustices, where we feel so powerless, it’s now these small aggressions and selfish acts that grind me most.

Money quote, apparently written by Trump himself, says it all: We have certain things in common, Jeffrey.

What is happening?

The ICE budget is now set to be approximately what the NIH budget was. We’re shifting money from solving real problems to solving fictitious problems.

You just know he’s going to tell his followers they were in stealth mode so the my were invisible — and they’d believe him.

It’s hard to watch neighborhood pyrotechnics this July 4th. My heart is broken for all the people who will suffer from the “Big Beautiful Bill” Republicans and their elected leaders

Vice President Harris and Douglas Emhoff watch fireworks at the White House on July 4, 2024.

This Fourth of July, I am taking a moment to reflect. Things are hard right now. They are probably going to get worse before they get better.

But I love our country — and when you love something, you fight for it. Together, we will continue to fight for the ideals of our nation.

This year it feels more like the Farce of July.

Can’t make this up.

McMorrow: What Trump has done is weaponize us against each other, when everybody needs hospitals, good schools, and health care.

It has become this battle for scarcity, when we’re the wealthiest country in the world. We should not be fighting each other for our basic needs.

Pardoned Jan. 6 Rioter Who Threatened Police Joins Justice Dept.

A former FBI agent who was charged with encouraging the mob that stormed the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, to kill police officers has been named as an adviser to the Justice Department task force that Trump established to seek retribution against his political enemies.

“The president remained steadfast in his novel interpretation of constitutional law.”

“The president’s solutions-focused approach to legal roadblocks necessitated thinking outside the constitutional box.”

And more!

No pay wall.

NEW: Mamdani has made his identity as a Muslim immigrant of South Asian descent a key pt of his appeal. But he claimed another label when he applied to Columbia. Asked to ID his race, he checked that he was “Asian” but also “Black or African American”

Imagine having the nerve to write on behalf of the paper of record that Muslim identity is a key part of a politician’s “appeal” in the Islamophobic wasteland that is the contemporary United States of America

Very low energy. Sad!😂

WATCH: During a hearing, GOP Sen. Josh Hawley presented a chart claiming Trump was victimized by injunctions—only to be dismantled by legal scholar (and wife of Chris Hayes) Kate Shaw.

“But her emails….” SMH

None of the people working behind the counter at this Starbucks seem to understand how funny I am.

STUDY: “When a state made cuts to Medicaid, depriving people of access to health insurance, the crime rate increased… cuts to Medicaid hurt public safety.”

Don’t tell us you care about crime then slash Medicaid by $1 Trillion, underfund education, etc. boltsmag.org/medicaid-cov...

Without our federal judges, the dismantling of our country would face no significant hurdle.

The cruelty is the point.

With all the anger and division in this country right now, we want to take time this Memorial Day weekend to remember those who fought and died for this country. Their sacrifice is worth honoring. We hold their friends and families in our hearts.

Yes, I’m sure all those top buyers of his meme coin are there because he’s just a great person, not the President.

Infographic titled “Judges reject Trump at an accelerating pace” with subtitle “Federal district court rulings against the administration.” The first bar chart, labeled “By month, %”, shows the percentage of federal district court rulings against the Trump administration: • February: 53.8% (7 out of 13) • March: 74.3% (26 out of 35) • April: 76.1% (51 out of 67) • May: 96.3% (26 out of 27) The second bar chart, labeled “By appointing party, %”, shows rulings against the Trump administration by the party of the judge’s appointing president: • Republican-appointed judges: 72.2% (26 out of 36) • Democratic-appointed judges: 80.4% (74 out of 92) Source: Bonica, Adam; Sen, Maya, 2025, “Common-space Measures of Judicial Ideology for Federal Judges (2024 update),” https://doi.org/10.7910/DVN/CK3EEL Note: Coding scheme details available at data4democracy.substack.com/p/when-judges-become-targets-judicial

Stunning. May was brutal for Trump in federal court: 96% loss rate ⚖️. Even GOP-appointed judges have ruled against the admin 72% of the time. District courts are doing their job defending the Constitution. Soon the Supreme Court may be the only court unwilling to defend the rule of law.

He got a REAL ID, is a citizen and was arrested and told his real id was fake. ICE is a disgrace.

wait, what??
