Gavin Newsom: "What more evidence of authoritarianism do you need? These guys aren't screwing around. We can no longer screw around. It's all at stake. People need to wake up. We can't continue to play by the old set of rules."

O'DONNELL: Americans have been watching videos of ICE tackling a young mother, tear gas being used in a Chicago residential neighborhood, and the smashing of car windows. Have some of these raids gone too far?

TRUMP: No. I think they haven't gone far enough.

Top 10 US billionaires’ collective wealth grew by $698bn in past year – report

Did she, tho?

SARS‑CoV‑2 (COVID-19)

Just spoke with my CDC sources.

They warned that farm workers in California are falling sick with H5N1 symptoms, yet orders have reportedly come from RFK Jr. himself not to test, not to report, and to keep it quiet.

Everyone who follows the news already knows where this is headed.

Orwell. A police state. An authoritarian regime that disappears people—including citizens. Think Pinochet as a starting point.

The problem is that those who don't follow the news *don't* know where this is headed. We must tell them.

O'DONNELL: Why did you pardon Changpeng Zhao?

TRUMP: Are you ready? I don't know who he is

O'DONNELL: His crypto exchange Binance helped facilitate a $2b purchase of World Liberty Financial's stablecoin. And they you pardoned him.

TRUMP: Here's the thing -- I know nothing about it

Kash Patel in 2023: “I’m just saying Chris Wray doesn’t need a government funded G5 jet to go to vacations. Maybe we ground that plane. $15,000 every time it takes off. Just a thought.”

Newsom: "He just announced he'll be sending out strike teams and organizing them in every state. Wake up! What the hell do we need to tell people to get them off their couch? To say, 'Hold on. I may have liked his bluster. I may not have liked the last guy, but I didn't sign up for this.'"

Fascism is a cult.

Cults always end the same way.

@forbes.com are being stupid or are you complicit?

Yes, please! 👅

Yes!

Zohran Mamdani's Establishment-Fighting Campaign Built Community for Young People “What Mamdani has done is not only inspire and mobilize young people, but he has exposed the establishment and some of their calcified views of participation and inclusion.”

dissatisfied by the New York Times coverage of Zohran Mamdani?

great news! I talked to the guy Thursday about his campaign’s success at bringing community together beyond this election, and contextualized how it’s potentially shifted youth engagement with politics by simply listening @teenvogue.com

Newsom: "He is not screwing around. He's changing the rules. He's rigging the game because he knows he'll lose if all things are equal. He did not expect California to fight fire with fire."

While Trump throws Gatsby themed parties for his billionaire friends, Americans are having to turn to crowdfunding platforms to pay for essentials.

Kamala Harris: It is about reminding folks that we refuse to kneel at the foot of a tyrant. That's not what we do. We stand for the principles upon which our nation was founded. We believe in the power of the vote, and we are prepared when necessary to fight fire with fire.

Hello, New Jersey! There’s a lot at stake in this election, and I’m here tonight to talk about why @mikiesherrill.bsky.social should be your next Governor. Watch live:

Newsom: I cannot wait for all the punditry. Historic victories all across the United States of America. Proposition 50 winning by double digits. A new governor of New Jersey, a new governor in Virginia.

I’ll end as I began: thank you for giving a damn.

What he said: 💯 🎯

Obama: "The weird videos of a US president with a crown on his head flying a fighter jet & dumping poop on American citizens - that's not even worth booing about. Because all of that is a distraction from the fact that your situation, your life has not gotten better. They do it so you won't notice"

Spend a day with me on the campaign trail in Virginia.

Happy birthday, Frederic!

Beautiful!

Good question, Junior!
