Dems. Wanna get your polling out of the gutter? Stop talking about redrawing house maps in blue states and do it. Go big. Don't match them seat for seat. Blow them out of the water. Then endorse Mamdani. You're welcome.

Start your morning with two minutes of the testimony of Samuel Garcia, an average American who drove 3 hours to speak truth to power to the Texas legislature. Let’s decide that we are all Samuel Garcia. Get in their faces and make them listen. Mr. Garcia is a great American.

Rep. Robert Garcia: "We should not be scared of what's in those files. We don't care who you are, how powerful you are, if you're in politics, what party you are, the amount of money you have — if you've committed these horrific crimes, it should be out to the American public."

They are the deadliest animal on the planet, according to the Weird But True show
Tough reading: the role mosquitoes have played in concentration camps around the world. They can supply a method of physical injury and torment that omits the sort of deliberate laying on of hands that might be open to investigation. Pitzer is the author of a global history of concentration camps.
Mosquitoes as deliberate torture caught on elsewhere. In Cuba when UMAP camps were imposed under Castro, "Jehovah Witnesses were subject to all manner of cruel treatment: beaten; deprived of food, water... tied up naked outside and left for the mosquitoes and sun." [10/17]

When a network lays off one of America’s greatest satirists, it’s not because he failed. It’s because he succeeded too loudly.

New rule: no criticizing the way others choose to resist unless you have a better, actionable idea and kind, constructive feedback. New ideas are good! Performative contrarianism is useless.

What, exactly, are we celebrating this Fourth of July?

Our cutting off healthcare to the needy to enrich the greedy?

Our new concentration camps?

Our dying economy?

Our ditching due process?

Our corruption?

Our broken Congress?

Our corrupt Supreme Court?

Our ridiculous buffoon President?

I'm still in awe over the Budapest rally for LGBTQ+ rights. Like the 'No Kings' protest was for Trump, the massive turnout in Budapest was the ultimate middle finger to Hungary's authoritarian dictator-wannabe Viktor Orban. 🙌💪👏👊🏳️‍🌈👇

If the bill passes, it will make ICE the nation’s largest jailer, with more funding for prison camps than the entire federal Bureau of Prisons. It would give ICE enough money to have more officers than the entire FBI.
This Is Ethnic Cleansing.

Dear Abby:

I am about to turn 50. I used to wake up in the morning feeling righteously mad but optimistic. Now I wake up every morning with a mix of anxiety and fear, wondering if anything matters. Is this normal?

Sincerely yours,

I love seeing the massive #NoKings turnouts in major cities, but what I love even more are the hundreds and hundreds of small, rural towns that had relatively bigger turnouts compared to their populations 💙🙏
