Dear Smithsonian.......send your historical records to Canada before they're destroyed.

Gavin Newsom responds to Fox's Dana Perino melting down over his tweets:

"A MAGA occupation of a left-leaning city."

If you look closer at what's happening on the streets of LA and DC, you'll see this is more than just "fighting crime"—it's a politically partisan occupation.

@dfriedman.bsky.social reports on what's happening in the streets of DC.

Exactly.

Alligator Alcatraz.

FL lawmakers are finally being let in—after Dems got turned away last week.

Here’s the catch: the tour’s not ‘til Saturday

They know the conditions are inhumane. Scrub the cages, hide the worst of it, and pray no one asks too many questions.

Don’t let them sanitize the truth!

Bottom line: Covid is a multi-system disease not only a respiratory disease. That's why Long COVID can be so varied causing at least 200 possible symptoms. Every time you get COVID, you run the risk of developing Long COVID. It isn't a binary condition, it is multi-systemic injury. That happens every time you catch it to some degree. We don't know why it cripples some people, only that it does. Vaccines help prevent Long COVID, but not nearly as much as repeat infections increase the risk of it. There is no cure for Long COVID.

COVID is not a respiratory illness. It's an immune-evasive-&-corrupting multi-systemic disease that slips past the blood-brain barrier & dysregulates cellular function. Pass it on.

(And you do—unless you ventilate & wear fitted N95 respirators, which >90% of you don't. Good luck with that)

All lies.

ICE handcuffs 71-year-old grandmother, a U.S. citizen, at San Diego immigration court An ICE agent accused the woman of pushing her. After she spent hours in custody, she denied that to NBC Diego on Wednesday.

These people are out of control.

ICE tasered a man at a Walmart in NM! His screams are heartbreaking! Has Walmart acknowledged this unconscionable act in their store? And why was the woman recording this video asked to leave but not the masked attackers in Aisle H26?!

“.. We appear to be driving straight into an abyss that holds no memory of what democracy is, was, or should be.

“.. The people in charge who are supposed to protect us .. now use the Constitution as a weapon to suit their own ends.”

Phang: They never learn, do they? There’s a slew of federal district court and appellate court judges telling this administration that what they’re doing is illegal and unconstitutional—but they don’t care. In response, they just call them “rogue judges.”

This is what it looks like to add $4 TRILLION to the national debt.

Talked to a longtime manager of @oregondot.bsky.social's High Cascades. He's getting laid off July 31, his dept cut from 20 in winter to just 5.

He said critical mountain highways — which access Crater and Diamond Lake — will become impassable in winter for weeks or months: tinyurl.com/cfbt8sc4

Did he really say that?

Healthcare expert warns of coverage shock under 'One Big Beautiful Bill' Medicaid work requirements, ACA subsidy expiration, and Medicare Advantage cuts could disrupt coverage for millions.

Another piece on how ACA subsidies will expire at the end of the year thanks to the GOP, and how premiums will jump as a result.

Also covers other healthcare impacts, but unlike a lot of articles that only focus on Medicaid, this talks a lot about the subsidies.

Gov. Pritzker: ‘This Is Not a Moment To Walk Away’ Read more here.

“I feel like this is not a moment to walk away. When you’re in the middle of a fight you gotta finish the fight. You gotta stand up, and I have to protect the people of my state the best I can,” Pritzker told Elias. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

As set forth in the attached Report, the Government of El Salvador responded to the UN inquiry opened by the four families asking about the disappearance of their family members: 1 The attached exhibit has redacted personal identifying information for the four men discussed in the WGEID report. Petitioners can file an unredacted version of the exhibit under seal at the Court's request, with the exception of one of the cases for particular privacy reasons related to that individual. 1 Case 1:25-cv-00766-JEB Document 160 Filed 07/07/25 Page 2 of 4 The Salvadoran State emphatically states that its authorities have not arrested, detained, or transferred the persons referred to in the communications of the Working Group. The actions of the State of El Salvador have been limited to the implementation of a bilateral cooperation mechanism with another State, through which it has facilitated the use of the Salvadoran prison infrastructure for the custody of persons detained within the scope of the justice system and law enforcement of that other State. In this context, the jurisdiction and legal responsibility for these persons lie exclusively with the competent foreign authorities, by virtue of international agreements signed and in accordance with the principles of sovereignty and international cooperation in criminal matters. In this regard, the actions attributable to the Salvadoran State are limited to its sovereignty and territorial jurisdiction, and therefore it cannot be held responsible for the failure to observe the principle of non-refoulement with respect to the persons mentioned. Ex. 1 at 6, 9 (emphasis added).

BREAKING: Documents filed in court today assert that officials from El Salvador told the United Nations that it "facilitated the use of the Salvadoran prison infrastructure" by the U.S. but that "the jurisdiction and legal responsibility for these persons lie exclusively with the" U.S.

Mayor Bass: This morning, it was frightening in Los Angeles to see tanks essentially rolling into MacArthur Park.

It was an egregious show of force. I have no idea what their purpose was. I don’t even think they detained anyone.

Los Angeles was peaceful before June 5. We need to go back to that.

The only newsworthy items from the NYT hit on Mamdani are:

1. NYT reporters are apparently chummy with white nationalists who spout eugenics

2. NYT editors apparently believe their peers are trolls like Chris Rufo

3. NYT "standards" for using hacked materials are not actually followed

You mean like HB13 that was rejected because they didn't want to pay for it. Or maybe this.
