Obama: “Imagine if I had pulled Fox News’ credentials from the White House press corps. You’re laughing, but this is what’s happening. It’s unimaginable that the same parties that are silent right now would have tolerated behavior like that from me.” Clip courtesy @meidastouch.com

Talarico’s argument is simple: Stop treating marijuana like a crime. Legalize it. Regulate it. Tax it. Stop wasting police resources on low-level marijuana offenses. Clear the records of people whose lives have been derailed by nonviolent marijuana convictions.

Good morning Bluesky ☀️ My grandad told me he saw the Titanic - from the outset he warned all the people that the ship would sink, but nobody listened to him. He knew he was right and didn't give up. He warned them again & again, until eventually they kicked him out of the cinema.
The Titanic sinking under a moonlit sky.

El-Sayed: "My commitment to Jewish safety is the same commitment that I have to the safety of my own daughters. Because if there is one question of political philosophy that ought to animate us all, it's what would we do if we treated all our kids like they were all of our kids?"

Took an Uber today and left my phone under the armrest. I panicked when I realized it was gone. So I borrowed a phone to call mine to see if it was in the room. The Uber driver picked up. She had come back and was in the lobby trying to find me. There *are* good people amongst us.

go.bsky.app/MXxxMdL Michelle Obama is a great speaker. She has no fear of hate. She has had her share. But she spoke eloquently about her husband and talked of things 47 will never obtain, a real peace prize, properly earned. She makes the haters very small. Follow and vote wisely.

Picking my dad up at his empty church parking lot and we spied a woman looking under her car hood. She’d pulled in because she heard meowing. It took us over an hour but we managed to rescue from her undercarriage this absolutely livid creature who very quickly calmed down in my hands. A great day.

Obama: I am not immune to anger or doubt. But I do know this when we lose faith in each other, when we stop believing that voting matters… we open the door to the most ruthless or the most careless, or the most fearful among us who see some groups and some people as more equal than others

Trump ran for president to erase Obama's legacy. Instead, the Obama center opening yesterday showed how Trump only amplified nostalgia for the Obama years. One of these men will be remembered fondly for decades to come. It won't be Trump. www.salon.com/2026/06/19/t...

One of the most common mistakes I see pro se people make is trying to apply the Americans with Disabilities Act to housing issues. The ADA, with only a couple of exceptions, doesn't apply to housing. The Fair Housing Act does. They're completely different laws with different frameworks.
