As Canada is learning (the hard way), the "art" of all of Trump's deals can be summed up in a single word: "renege": pluralistic.net/2026/07/22/t... 1/

A Canadian flag, its elements replaced with circuit boards. In the foreground, a bent-double, exhausted Uncle Sam trudges over rocky terrain, shlepping a giant sack on his back. Centered in the maple leaf is the word SORRY.

"There’s simply no way any of us could have predicted a Nazi SS guy with his eyeballs dangling out of his sockets and the Staff of Ra broiled into his flesh like grill marks on a meat slab would be such a terrible candidate for Senate."

If you prefer video, take 11 minutes out of your day to watch. And while we only focused on 5 agents there were many more we saw move from city to city, and aggressive tactics were not limited to just these 5 guys. www.youtube.com/watch?v=evAD...

Johnson’s refusal to seat Grijalva feels like a foreshadowing of this GOP plan to stay in power post-2026 regardless of the outcome of the election. This thread is about a well connected Oregon MAGA activist who just podcasted it out.

It really is amazing that when a popular young Democratic politician who wants to solve real problems for people beats an old-guard institutionalist Democrat in a primary, the institutionalist Democrat just stays in the race and basically runs as a Republican.

Republicans’ defunding of Planned Parenthood in their Big Bad Betrayal Bill is a cruel attack on reproductive care, cancer screenings, and more. But thanks to @governorferguson.bsky.social, Washington State will continue funding local Planned Parenthoods — and save lives.

My statement on Donald Trump's threat to deport me and his praise for Eric Adams, who the President "helped out" of legal accountability.

The President of the United States just threatened to have me arrested, stripped of my citizenship, put in a detention camp and deported. Not because I have broken any law but because I will refuse to let ICE terrorize our city.

His statements don’t just represent an attack on our democracy but an attempt to send a message to every New Yorker who refuses to hide in the shadows: if you speak up, they will come for you. We will not accept this intimidation.

That Trump included praise for Eric Adams in his authoritarian threats is unsurprising, but highlights the urgency of bringing an end to this Mayor’s time in City Hall. At the very moment when MAGA Republicans are attempting to destroy the social safety net, kick millions of New Yorkers off of healthcare and enrich their billionaire donors at the expense of working families, it is a scandal that Eric Adams echoes this President’s division, distraction and hate.

Voters will resoundingly reject it in November.

AOC: “It is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.”

The President's disastrous decision to bomb Iran without authorization is a grave violation of the Constitution and Congressional War Powers.
He has impulsively risked launching a war that may ensnare us for generations.
It is absolutely and clearly grounds for impeachment.

🧵: One of Trump's accusations yesterday is that President Zelenskyy or Ukraine's defense against Putin's/Russia's genocidal re-invasion would start World War III (WWIII). That ship sailed a long time ago. We're already in a world war & have been for some time. 1/

Washington State voter here. You know what's more important than messaging? ACTION. Don't TALK about the price of eggs. Tell people "MEET US IN THE PARK - WE'RE GIVING OUT FREE EGGS. THAT'S RIGHT - FREE EGGS FROM THE DEMOCRATS!" @adamsmith.house.gov @pattymurray.bsky.social @cantwell.senate.gov

Emptying a bin in the Netherlands. Having these large bins on residential streets ensures there is no "bin day", residents are free to put their rubbish out whenever they please, which leads to less litter in the street. A sensor tells the local authority when it's full, meaning fewer truck journeys

As expected, the Trump team is already deleting climate info from government websites. In anticipation, our team at Urban Ocean Lab created a permanent archive of 100+ key resources and published a permanent archive: www.urbanoceanlab.org/resource-hub 👩🏽‍💻

Walk out of the station in Tokyo, look up, and see a comet in the sky overhead. Pretty dang cool!

Comet Tsuchinshan-ATLAS is a long, yellow streak across an orange sunset sky with some clouds. Tokyo, Japan.
