While here I will make a plug to support @aftynbehn.bsky.social in her Tuesday special election in TN-07. Trump/GOP melting down, late polling has this race a toss up. Would be a huge, huge upset.
Watch my new interview with her and donate 👇

He is really a brilliant comic.
I know I do.
Since May:
Federal district courts have ruled against Trump admin 94% of the time.
Supreme Court has sided with the Trump admin 94% of the time.
A judiciary at war with itself.
Voice of America’s Farsi-language broadcast, dismantled under Trump and DOGE, was abruptly reactivated today, recalling dozens of staff from paid leave as tensions between Israel and Iran escalated.
"Biden was old but governed normally. Trump governs erratically *because* he’s unglued. That’s the true cover-up, one the media is enabling when they seem more concerned with the mental condition of a former president than the escalating madness of the current one."
“Conservatives” are going to replace the most established and prestigious journals with government-backed propaganda.
He’s obviously also doing this because these journals won’t publish the crooked science he intends to perform to promote his crazy ideas.
CBS reporter Scott Pelley:
This is a warning that I fear many will look back on in five or six years and think “he was so right”.
If you haven’t already shared this, please do.
BREAKING: NPR and three Colorado public radio stations are suing the Trump administration over the president's executive order seeking to ban the use of federal money for NPR and PBS.
I wonder how much Trump crypto you have to buy for a pardon as a dirty cop who got 10 years after getting caught on video accepting $75K in bribes from businessmen who wanted to buy badges?
I’m so sorry you lost Bode. I’m sure he was a very good boy. ❤️
My favorite thing.
I simply do not understand how a NEWS ORGANIZATION is basically existing in a stage of siege but very rarely conveys in its political coverage that we are in a state of emergency
National security clearances? Overrated.
Now you too can stay in the loop—thanks to Pete Hegseth’s Friends & Family Plan!

So we’ve got a Secretary of Defense who can’t keep his communications secure and a Secretary of Homeland Security who can’t keep her handbag secure.

What a relief!❤️
Good for Harvard
In defiance of the Supreme Court & without any evidence, the White House claims that Kilmar Abrego Garcia is a “terrorist,” who was “sent to the right place.”
This is a blatant LIE. He is innocent.
He cannot be allowed to rot in an El Salvadorian jail. He must be brought home.
In the name of reducing fentanyl overdoses, Trump has gone to the extreme—levied tariffs, listed cartels as terrorist groups, and weighed drone strikes in Mexico.
But these proclamations gloss over a glaring reality: The admin is decimating funding for treatment and overdose prevention programs.
Lawyers across the country, including me, are ringing the bell as loud as we possibly can about the fact that the Abrego Garcia case signals the end of our democracy.
The vicious, fascistic lies Trump, Bondi, Miller, and Homan have told about it underscore that they know exactly what they're doing.
The Trump administration cancelled a requirement of Alabama to clean up raw sewage flowing into yards where kids often play in rural, impoverished, majority-Black communities, calling the cleanup requirement “illegal DEI.” 1/3

I think the Supreme Court got the law badly wrong tonight. But beyond that, it’s just incredibly ominous that Roberts would throw Boasberg under the bus and hand Trump this big win when his administration has conducted this case in EXTREME bad faith from the start. slate.com/news-and-pol...
Sending anyone from this country to a foreign gulag, particularly without a court hearing, should rightfully end a presidency. Full stop.
Needless to say, Justice Sotomayor is not mincing words. "The Government’s conduct in this litigation poses an extraordinary threat to the rule of law. ... We, as a Nation and a court of law, should be better than this."

They are just disappearing people off the street. Having a hard time thinking about literally anything else.
The Department of Health and Human Services has abruptly canceled more than $12 billion in federal grants to states that were being used for tracking infectious diseases, mental health services, addiction treatment, and other urgent health issues…
Thousands held a rally to demand the release and safe return of Rumeysa Ozturk, who was disappeared by the Trump regime, one of many people that have been kidnapped nationwide. #3E
