I'm sure the DOJ that thinks 86 47 constitutes a threat will be all over this.

I mean, she may be right. Have any rules *been* applied to her?

You’d also have to explain that this is the congresswoman from CO who was caught on camera giving a (probably) over-the-pants handie in a theater during a showing of the Beetlejuice musical for full effect

It ain’t even a tax. Taxes pay for useful crap. This is just a surcharge for no purpose other than so Dear Leader gets to see things all explodey.

To be fair, the Republicans in Congress are also responsible since they refuse to do anything about Dear Leader

She has no obligation to campaign for him. But a lot of people will decide that means she is not for fighting fascism and is just a selfish attention hog. Everyone gets to make choices

One way you know Dolly Parton lived life the right way: I don’t think anyone’s going to get fired for accurately quoting Dolly Parton today.

They’re not handing anything over to Iran. Dear Leader is doing that himself. Trump has no play here. It’s fuck up the economy or admit defeat. He’s chosen the former and the Republicans will likely lose a lot of elections for it.

Damned near every legislator has constituent service people doing exactly that. It’s one of the reasons polls show everyone hates Congress but somehow nearly every congresscritter gets re-elected.

The Interior Department is lying. DOJ is lying. DOD is lying. It goes without saying DHS is lying. And whatever setbacks they suffer (which are good!), they will keep on lying. The Trump administration won't change. It can't be fixed. The task is to weaken it, and limit the damage it can do.

Imagine if a woman president spent most her time raving and crying about an election she lost 6 years ago. Emotional. Unstable. Hysterical. Unfit to lead.

Officers shooting a man, running away from law enforcement, who is not a target of law enforcement, and who poses no threat to law enforcement, is murder. Federal officers do not have the power to commit summary executions because they are aggrieved.

Whatever their supposed mission, ICE has become an army of paramilitary irregulars, tasked with perpetrating violence in the general direction of immigrants and anyone who defends them. That’s what the masks are about, they’re a weapon of terror. Secret police thugs, not accountable to anyone.

When a politician dies we see a lot of hagiographies about them. If you mention they were a terrible person IRL, you get chastised. My feeling? If you don't want people to talk shit about you after you die, don't be shitty when you're alive.

How about you guys stop believing the liars running the government from the jump? Until they provide actual evidence of anything they claim, you must treat them as the lying bad-faith actors that they are. Otherwise just burn any journalism degrees you might have cuz you ain’t usin’ ‘em

I think a lot of people’s point is that Platner had a goddamned Nazi tattoo and that wasn’t a dealbreaker for progressives. There is exactly one type of person who gets a Nazi tattoo. I’ll leave it as an exercise to the reader to determine what that type of person is called.

Today marks 250 years since a small group of newspaper editors, farmers, and soldiers signed a document declaring our nation's independence — a truth that feels self-evident now but was revolutionary then.
What a privilege us Americans have, to live in a nation that every one of its inhabitants can shape. What an honor us New Yorkers have, to look out over our city's waters from the shores where so many Americans bravely entered their country for the first time.
Today and all days, let us remember that patriotism is not pretending our nation is without flaws. Patriotism is every act of righteous dissent — because loving our country means fighting for the best version of it.
Happy Fourth of July, New York City.

The best defense available for him is that he’s incurious and impulsive. Not exactly the personality traits we should want in a senator. But I’m sure this won’t come back to bite the progressives who championed him like ol’ Johnny Fetts here in PA.

Russia struck the Dormition Cathedral of the Kyiv Pechersk Lavra, setting its roof on fire. Built in the 11th century, the cathedral is the main church of the Kyiv Pechersk Lavra, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of Ukraine's most important Christian shrines.

With Elon Musk running 70 companies at the same time, while managing to tweet badly at all hours of the day and night. With Marco Rubio and Bill Pulte doing 10 jobs each, I am starting to doubt how important CEOs actually are.

Trump did not reach a settlement with the government. There was no case to settle. He has not created a slush fund. He has colluded with Todd Blanche to steal money from the US Treasury. This is not a “deal.” This is a crime for which Trump & Blanche must be prosecuted. It ia a crime.

I dunno. I look at his record and think that at best he’s no better than average and certainly doesn’t deserve the deification he receives from certain groups. Zohran ain’t been around long enough to judge. AOC and Omar are good, Fetts and Tulsi are Nazis. At best he’s batting .500.

No. It is past time for you to stop acting as if the Republican Party is anything but a cult of personality beholden to a fascist buffoon. Stop asking them to work with you. It makes you weak and that is decidedly -not- what we need in the opposition party.

The fact that nobody seriously believes there is an institution in this country that will check the president—that we’re all just sitting here hoping that he gets distracted and fails to follow through on his genocidal threats—is the most damning indictment of our political system I’ve seen yet.

#Artemis II lunar flyby images are showing up! 😍 A crescent Earth setting behind the Moon.
Earthset captured through the Orion spacecraft window at 6:41 p.m. EDT, April 6, 2026, during the Artemis II crew’s flyby of the Moon. A muted blue Earth with bright white clouds sets behind the cratered lunar surface. The dark portion of Earth is experiencing nighttime. On Earth’s day side, swirling clouds are visible over the Australia and Oceania region.  In the foreground, Ohm crater has terraced edges and a flat floor interrupted by central peaks. Central peaks form in complex craters when the lunar surface, liquefied on impact, splashes upwards during the crater’s formation.
