What’s going on?

UPDATE: Iran just voted to suspend their cooperation with IAEA inspectors.

So now there will be no visibility into whether or not they are moving towards nuclear weapons going forward.

REED: How can you say we're more safe today because we can't put automatic firing devices on pistols, but we can on automatic weapons?

BONDI: We will continue to follow the law. You and I clearly disagree on the 2nd Amendment

REED: I agree that machine guns are not appropriate in the US

Share this video. Moms are showing up with their kids in DC and law enforcement has arrived with zip ties

I think that the outcome in the NY Mayoral race and the Wisconsin Supreme Court race both show that people power CAN beat the political money machine. That should give us all hope, and the motivation to work for the government we want.

It’s ironic that Tim Burchett’s a damn liar, because he pretends he’s not. We don’t want to take your guns, dumbass.

Iran says US 'decided to destroy diplomacy' and Iranian military will decide 'timing, nature and scale' of its response. — Associated Press

Iran’s foreign minister:

Congress has a constitutional duty to hold presidents accountable to the people.

Trump and DHS have blocked every one of our efforts to inspect ICE detention facilities, as we are legally authorized to do.

If everything is above board, why are they illegally denying our access?

I hate the way Iran treats its women.

But a country that kept a brain dead woman alive to force her to give birth, and forced her family to pay for it all against their wishes,

hardly has a leg to stand on.

We treat women like beasts of burden and take away their agency right here.

So…🤷🏽‍♀️

I guess we should be grateful that they’re paving it instead of just parking on the lawn?

This is how it’s done.

Georgia state Senator Ed Setzler says he’s proud of the work his abortion bill HB481 has done. He’s the one who should be paying the hospital bills since he’s the person who made all this happen.

Making America first, one death at a time

For real tho…

Don't let them distract you. Republicans are trying to sell off millions of acres of your public lands to billionaire developers — all as they take away your benefits. Now is the time to make some noise.

GA Republicans rigged the voting districts with their gerrymandered maps in 2022. They flipped a blue district, turning it to R+14, with maps that were still being drawn two two weeks before advance voting of the primary. They were made to later fix the maps by the Supreme Court. They barely did it.

More SCOTUS opinions are being released now.

It is a 3-box day...

We tried to warn everyone. The National Guard in California was just a test. Trump’s coming for the other 49.

Hannah Arendt: Facing Tyranny - About the documentary | American Masters | PBS Discover Hannah Arendt, who transformed her time as a political prisoner during World War II into daring insights about totalitarianism.

I watched a screener of this from PBS — it airs next week.

Highly recommended.

Clyburn Endorses Cuomo, Helping Him Broaden His Appeal to Black Voters

Saying Cuomo (67 year old sex pest) is the future of the national Democratic Party really means national party leadership are intent on driving us off a cliff. This really is the time for our own tea party moment.

Cutting specialized suicide prevention services for LGBTQ youth — during Pride Month, no less — is disgusting.
