Very unfortunate to have the Trump light faction win in 2 of the 3 by elections yesterday. This group is destroying what made ON a good place to live and it seems “folks” just don’t get it☹️☹️

There's no forgiving this. No living it down. It's a stain on our humanity. When all this is over, the monsters who did this should be pariahs. And the soulless thugs who cheered it on while dehumanizing Haitian immigrants should be reminded of what they did every day of their lives.

Well said. Trump probably knows this. He likes to pretend he's a big man whatever chance he gets though. It's getting old. So is he.

No Father’s Day is complete without this video. At the 1992 Olympic Games in Barcelona, Redmond tore his hamstring in the 400 metres semi-final but continued the race limping and, with assistance from his father, managed to complete a full lap of the track as the crowd gave him a standing ovation.

A brand new bridge between Detroit and Canada is finished and ready to open. It would speed up traffic for millions of trucks, cut delays for American businesses, and help the auto industry that employs people in every state. There is just one problem. Donald Trump won’t let it open. Here is why.

Trump’s lies are designed to wear you down. But here's what they don't understand — weariness is not surrender. We can be tired and still show up. “We’re not going to let him win by losing faith in our ability to fight back,” @marcelias.bsky.social says.

Now that Platner has won the primary, I want to be clear. When I said “vote blue no matter who” in 2016, 2020, and 2024, I meant it. I’m worried about Platner, but if you say “vote blue no matter who” in Maine, I hope you’ll extend the same courtesy to other Dems. I hope we beat Collins.

For a "Christian Nationalist" movement, they are led by a man who has broken all of the 10 Commandments, and they advocate against everything Jesus advocated for during the Sermon on the Mount. They are much more like Rome than Jesus. It's a political cult, not a religious movement.

This photo of Andy Kim in the moments before ICE gassed everyone at Delaney Hall is going into the history books. We need more of this from our electeds.
Senator Andy Kim runs into the street as an ICE armored vehicle behind him prepares to deploy chemical agents against protestors in front of Delaney Hall concentration camp in Newark, NJ. His hands are outstretched and he appears to be shouting.

"there was a much more violent man already in the ballroom. That is Trump. Trump decried Allen as a “lone wolf whackjob” but let’s be clear, a lone wolf whackjob with a few weapons under his jacket is nothing compared with the threat posed by a whackjob who controls the world’s most potent military"

Six Supreme Court justices, the Roberts court majority, were very concerned about the risks of Donald Trump personally, and a future president hypothetically, not being able to commit crimes without consequence. It was a top priority for them, and they used their power to ensure it wouldn’t happen.

It's so chilling. #saveact #fascism They know what they are doing. Convincing people with aw shucks tones to agree to their own disenfranchisement. The SAVE act targets women- and here we have a young woman saying 'nothing to see here'. How to they sleep at night? What do they teach their kids?
