No one cares and nobody trusts anything you say!

Hey, Don't Let 'Em Gaslight You. You're Right to Grieve This Way. Friend, I may not know you, but I’m pretty sure I know some things about you:

I hear the nagging question that careens inside your head, the one you ask yourself a few hundred times a day: “Is it me, or has a huge portion of this country lost its mind?”

It isn’t you...

Massie: "Donald Trump told us that even though he had dinner with these people in NYC and West Palm Beach, that he would be transparent. But he's not. He's still in with the Epstein class. This is the Epstein administration."

ABC: Do you still have confidence in Pam Bondi as AG?

MASSIE: I don't think Pam Bondi has confidence in Pam Bondi. She wasn't confident enough to engage in anything but name calling in a hearing. So no, I don't. She was responsible for the document production.

Pam Bondi showed up before the Judiciary Committee with a burn book that had a printed search history of exactly what emails I searched.

The DOJ is spying on members of Congress. This is beyond unacceptable.

We aren't boycotting the arts; we are refusing to entertain fascists and white nationalists. Cry harder about it while you listen to Kid Rock and try so hard to pretend it isn't basic, boring, uninspired tripe.

Who has a hunger for these games?

Chicago Cubs co-owner not knowing the first thing about government & that he’s in it.

Happy Fibonacci Day to those who honor and celebrate it.

McGovern: He would rather appeal to the highest court in the land to starve people than simply provide them with the food assistance that he is legally obligated to do. That is the Republican policy position. We will give you your food if you let us take away your health care.

A man rushed to the Broadview ICE facility searching for his wife. They followed every legal step, but ICE took her into another room and she vanished. He tracked her phone there when the signal died. Police told him to “look up her name online.” He sat in the parking lot, weeping, with no answers.

Remember when Elon Musk said Jeff Bezos’ ex-wife MacKenzie Scott was destroying Western civilization by giving billions to charities for women, minorities, and marginalized groups?

After learning about his comment, she doubled her donations.

Perfect response.

Newsom: "It's not about rule of law anymore. It's rule of Don. He's choosing which court decisions he agrees with. He's quite literally running an extortion racket. He's doing it with some of the most powerful corporate leaders. What does everything have in common? Tariffs. They're about leverage"

Apparently, the media is asleep too.

Where’s @jaketapper.bsky.social ???

omg

I want you to understand what it is like to live in Chicago during this time. Every day my phone buzzes. It is a neighborhood group: four people were kidnapped at the corner drugstore. A friend a mile away sends a Slack message: she was at the scene when masked men assaulted and abducted two people on the street. A plumber working on my pipes is distraught, and I find out that two of his employees were kidnapped that morning. A week later it happens again. An email arrives. Agents with guns have chased a teacher into the school where she works. They did not have a warrant. They dragged her away, ignoring her and her colleagues’ pleas to show proof of her documentation. That evening I stand a few feet from the parents of Rayito de Sol and listen to them describe, with anguish, how good Ms. Diana was to their children. What it is like to have strangers with guns traumatize your kids. For a teacher to hide a three-year-old child for fear they might be killed. How their relatives will no longer leave the house. I hear the pain and fury in their voices, and I wonder who will be next. Understand what it is to pray in Chicago.

“I want you to understand what it is like to live in Chicago during this time.”

Say it isn’t so! We’re not welcome in states with the lowest ranks in education and life expectancy. And the highest ranks in maternal mortality and crime. So unfair!

Socialism is what they called public power.

Socialism is what they called social security.

Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.

Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

—Harry Truman, 1952

Um, do federal prosecutors *really* want to take the position that it's not okay to receive something of value from … Qatar?

I can think of 747 reasons why they shouldn't. 🤔

Worth remembering…

The Great Gatsby was better when it was fiction.

AP: “A U.S. Senate investigation report released by @ossoff.senate.gov has uncovered dozens of credible reports of medical neglect and poor conditions in immigration detention centers nationwide…” apnews.com/article/immi...

I wonder if the South American fishermen he's routinely killing would count as "innocent Christians" too, or nah?

The UK's King Charles hasn't destroyed an entire wing of Buckingham Palace or tried to shake the government down for an extra $230,000,000—because he knows he lacks the authority. AND HE'S A REAL KING.

$170B for ICE and Border Patrol
$40B for Argentina
$1B to refurbish Trump's Qatar jet
$230M for Trump's DOJ "compensation"
$200M for Kristi Noem's jets
$98M for Trump's golf outings

But no money to lower your healthcare costs.

Break the law, face the consequences. That goes for ICE agents who commit illegal acts outside of their official functions.

Gee, I can’t imagine why…

This is such a great callout…

Does your Christian church have a plan to help the community when SNAP benefits don’t go out in November?

If not, you’re at the wrong church.
