Chumbawamba’s “Tubthumping” turns 28 today.

The song “didn’t belong to an elite group of musicians,” said Boff Whalley. “It belonged to people. People at football matches, people singing along — people at parties drinking too much whiskey and tripping over the kitchen chairs. People like me.”

“Pools are not a luxury, they are essential to communities, so to have this pool close on the first day the pools were supposed to open — that’s heartbreaking. And it’s salt in the wound to also learn that the pool won’t open until summer is almost over.”

This is what a decent human being does. We were very lucky to have him as our president who did so much for Americans. I still can’t believe what we have now.

This is a United States Senator mocking the assassination of a Minnesota legislator and her husband. He pretends to be a good Mormon. He’s a sick fuck.

Horrified by the news that two legislators and their spouses were shot in Minnesota. My thoughts are with the victims, their families, and the people of Minnesota. Violence is never the answer.

If you're a gringo invading a city with the Spanish name "Los Angeles," you are invading traditionally Hispanic land, which they took from Native Americans, instead of Hispanics invading YOUR land.

The Declaration of Independence specifies 27 grievances with King George III, and I count at least 15 of them that Donald Trump has also committed in whole or in part.

Particularly notable right now:
"He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures."

He’s disappearing innocent people off of our streets and ordering the military onto our streets. He does not give a damn about the rule of law. He is the very tyrant our founding generation rose up against 249 yrs ago. It’s time for the American people to rise up again.

Jeffries: "We will not be lectured by Donald Trump and anyone in the Republican Party about issues of law and order ... he pardoned hundreds of violent felons, criminals, who brutally assaulted police officers and attacked the Capitol on January 6. That's what Donald Trump did on day one."

(5) The Memo includes no geographic limit. None. It applies across the USA.

As @billkristolbulwark.bsky.social explained below: "It’s a blank check for mobilizing National Guard and active duty troops to deploy anywhere"

(Trump alluded to this on tarmac on Sunday: bsky.app/profile/acyn...)
The presidential memorandum never mentions Los Angeles or California. It’s a blank check for mobilizing National Guard and active duty troops to deploy anywhere to protect federal personnel or functions wherever protests “are occurring or are likely to occur.”

There was never a “criminal invasion” via the southern border. ICE is having trouble finding actual criminals. So the regime is staging WWE style raids to round up innocents. It’s grotesque and cruel MAGA kabuki theatre (it’s their M.O.): red meat for yellow MAGA dogs!

Philly local tv station reporting that a man allegedly posed as an ICE agent in order to rob a car repair business office.
How many other criminals might be getting this idea right now, given that actual ICE agents are refusing to show IDs, warrants, badges?

Federal cuts to states of $793 billion over 10 years would represent 12% of federal spending on Medicaid over the period.

By state, the cuts range from 5% in Wyoming and Alabama to 17% in Washington. on.kff.org/4mQ5XhG
