Democracy is the way. Truth and justice matter.

Russia can end the war today by leaving Ukraine.

Less proud to be an American than I used to be. I really thought we were better than this.

"Sure Epstein was arrested on charges of sex trafficking minors. Sure, he died in jail. (I am not going to wade into the debate about how.) But he subscribed to a racist, misogynist ideology that meant rich white men like him could do whatever they liked. And it seems he took measures to spread it."

NEW: A huge win for ICE in the 5th Circuit tonight clears the way for the agency to mass detain people facing (and fighting) deportation proceedings. District judges all over the country — including dozens of Trump appointees — had rejected this policy.

Putin and his supporters don't want you to know this:

4 years into the full-scale invasion, Russia controls less Ukrainian territory today than it did 4 weeks in.

A strategic failure.

And here's a secret of the past decade: a lot of the crucial organizing/resistance work is done by women who look like nice mom-type ladies, often suburban variety, sometimes through nice organizations like churches. Sorry if anyone needs it to look like Che Guevara.

Again, if you were alive in the 1980s, this is among the most wonderful & truly incredible things you have ever witnessed in your lifetime.
Just because good news is worth celebrating:

There is now a Prep medication that is an *every six month* injection.

Was Epstein a Russian agent? Was Epstein an Israeli agent? This debate that's is "either/or" is raging in social media right now. It's far off the mark. Epstein ran an operation on the model of Robert Maxwell, who networked with at least 7 intel agencies,

📈TrumpRx price for acid reflux drug Protonix💊= $200, with no generic options offered. Generic version of this common acid reflux pantoprazole drug at Walmart and Safeway= just $10-12. Price inflation => 18x. Don’t fall for the scam.

IRS is tired yo. I am doing a job that I never do. Plus my job that I do everyday. Because the teen nazi Doge-bags and their shit stain leader decided that half the IRS shouldn't exist.

He doesn’t even try to hide the fact that whether people in a particular state get disaster relief from the federal government depends entirely on partisan politics.

Authorities in Tucson are closing roads around the home of Savannah Guthrie’s mother, Nancy, and pushing media back from the area for investigative purposes.

This comes after another news station received an additional note from the person claiming to have abducted Nancy Guthrie.

KL: He did it. But it was harmless.

White House: It was a mistake. It was an intern.

Random observers: He really didn’t see what he posted.

Trump: YOURE GOD DAMN RIGHT I ORDERED THE CODE RED
Q: A number of Republicans are calling on you to apologize for that post. Is that something you're going to do?

Trump: No, I didn't make a mistake. It was fine. I guess it was a takeoff from The Lion King. And certainly it was a very strong post

Can't wait until thirty seconds into the deposition when Norm asks whether Elon has taken any medications that could affect his testimony
A federal court cleared way for us @democracydefendersfund.org to depose Elon Musk over the unconstitutional shutdown of USAID

Our case now moves into discovery

As our Legal Director Tianna Mays explains: accountability starts w/ facts👇 - TN
Elon Musk Will Be Deposed Over What He Did With DOGE

The racist meme is (among many other things) a reminder, as if anyone needed it, that Trump's late-night posting-spree behavior on social media is not normal or healthy.

If he doesn't get booed in this country it's probably because he doesn't have the nerve to go anywhere that isn't exclusively MAGA, or in someway in need of staying on good terms with the admin. JD is not popular with the non-MAGA crowd.
Reporter: Did you see that the VP Vance got booed at the Olympics?

Trump: That’s surprising because people like him. He doesn’t get booed in this country.

Decency does not appear to be a priority for the press these days. It's more important to preserve their access by sanewashing Trump.
It's perfectly appropriate for the media to take a stand in defense of basic decency. Call that "advocacy" if you so choose. Be decent.

The only country where Epstein crimes were committed where they are not investigated is the US.
But the vast majority of his crimes were committed here.
Why is the US DOJ against investigating crimes?
I see, because of Trump.
What can you do about him?
