Waste, fraud and abuse, and also it's more confirmation that you can crime with impunity if you're a rich white guy who likes Trump.

This is the perfect encapsulation of Trumpism -- because of its obsession with imagery, the White House crew caused a problem but blamed it on other people, leading to MAGA making threats against the United Nations for their own screw up

BREAKING 🚨 🚨 🚨

Federal judge in Rhode Island has declared that President Trump's policy of requiring states to cooperate with ICE as a condition of receiving disaster relief from the Federal Emergency Management Agency is illegal and unconstitutional.

Judge Ana C. Reyes of the U.S. District Court found that Trump had acted in violation of statutes governing such removals, but concluded that reinstating them now would serve little purpose.

Trump violated the law by firing government watchdogs, yet they won’t be reinstated, got it, so violations of the law are apparently okay? A federal judge in Washington rejected a bid to restore eight inspectors general who were dismissed shortly after Trump became president.

Whatever else you think of him, I don't think he is insincere about this stuff, and it should be recognized as extraordinary that he, Pritzker, and other governors are talking about the federal government in these terms. It's not normal political rhetoric, it's the language of existential emergency.

Rid me of this meddlesome priest, Pam! How mob boss Trump sped through all of Watergate in just a single weekend.

Let’s be clear: What Donald Trump said in public, in plain view, on his own social media feed is more corrupt and dangerous than anything Richard Nixon was caught on tape saying in the White House tapes. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/rid-me-of-...

Sadly we are seeing this proven correct right before our very eyes.

Friends, as a Jew, human rights advocate, and a human being, I am disgraced and disgusted by these sales by an Israeli company of land stolen from Palestinian farmers by West Bank terrorists.

Good for them! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Excited to be in Memphis with my Disciples of Christ family from all across the US and Canada, as well as some international folks! #GA2025Beyond

Remember Trump's telling pause when he was asked if he would declassify the Epstein files?

Our reality is more strange than that which any fiction writer could come create!

Probably the very last person to post this, but holy shit.

This is unheard of. I don't think I've ever seen an election where youth turnout exceeded middle-aged, much less elderly people.

I am glad that today the governor signed a new law repealing New York's ban on providing food and water to people waiting in line to vote. However, it should be clearly noted that this was the result of successful litigation brought by the Brooklyn NAACP -- which the state fought and lost in court.

I fear this is only the beginning of US citizens being detained and possibly deported. Come on, Repubs in Congress, grow a spine!

ICE denied U.S. Reps. Raja Krishnamoorthi (D-IL) and Jonathan Jackson (D-IL) entry into it’s facility in Chicago.

I don't know about you...but I'm disturbed by the amount of hell NOT being raised by leadership about masked individuals jumping out of unmarked vans, refusing to identify themselves...and just shoving people into a Goddamn vehicle and whisking them away.

So “pro-life.”

If you think this moment is about one politician or one press conference, you’re missing the point.

This is about speaking up for every single American and fighting for our constitutional rights.

This is an insurrection.

This is absolutely unconscionable to go back on promises made. No one will want to work with US troops if this is how we treat those who risk their lives for us.

Brutal.

Jared Polis agrees to hold off on complying with ICE subpoena until June 23 as whistleblower lawsuit plays out The director of the state Division of Labor Standards and Statistics sued the governor last week arguing that complying with the subpoena, as Polis directed, would violate state law

Gov. Polis is putting unaccompanied kids and their sponsors at risk, pressuring state workers to hand over info to ICE, even when it violates Colorado law. State employees shouldn’t be forced to choose between protecting children and keeping their jobs. coloradosun.com/2025/06/09/j...

No surprise. (Most of) the GOP only care about protecting their rich benefactors. Forget all their poor constituents who continue to vote for them because abortion. Meanwhile, if any of their sex partners needed to have one, I’m sure GOP reps and senators would have no qualms arranging an abortion.

Texas Talks Tough on Immigration. But Lawmakers Won’t Force Most Private Companies to Check Employment Authorization. Texas’ conservative Legislature has again and again refused to mandate that most private businesses use E-Verify. Experts say that Republican resistance is rooted in how the system could impact the st...

Texas lawmakers will shout about being tough on immigration but quietly refuse to pass laws requiring that employees verify workers are authorized to work in the US.

Why?

Because they know what it would do to an economy that relies on underpaid migrant workers.
