Thinking a lot recently about the outrage over Lizzo playing James Madison's flute
Photos: White House East Wing Demolished For Trump’s Ballroom
The privately funded ballroom will be approximately 90,000 square feet, much larger than the White House itself.

Here’s the original clip of Ronald Reagan from April 25, 1987, where he delivered a complete and total rebuke against tariffs. Trump's calling Reagan’s words here “FAKE” and “fraudulent.” They’re 100% real. And the original clip is actually far worse for Trump, as much is left out of the ad:

To the craven "comedians" who are STILL not speaking up: The manager at the Chicago Laugh Factory was arrested by ICE. They filed no charges, he's a US citizen, and his family doesn't know where he is.

They are coming for all of us. Grow a fucking spine and say something while you still can.

Here's a photo of my friend and colleague, Jorge Bautista, getting shot in the face with a flashbang grenade. The ICE Agent is so afraid of Jorge (who was posing no threat) that he has wet himself. Please share this photo. Everyone needs to know what cowards ICE agents are.

Fuck these people.
Breaking: The Supreme Court is now officially considering taking up a case overturning same-sex marriage.

This is the first time in history the court has considered rolling back this right.

🚨Trump’s team is plotting to declare a fake "national emergency" to hijack elections.

One operative says they can “take steps without Congress” and mandate state election rules.

Independent, state-run elections are the last firewall between democracy and authoritarian rule.

Not “ICE” changing license plates in a back lot.

They wouldn’t do that, would they? Maybe the authorities should look into this.

Craziest inmate running the asylum, rabid fox guarding the henhouse: a year before inflection-point midterms, a MAGA 2020 conspiracy nut is the Department of Homeland Security’s new deputy assistant secretary for election integrity.

Wondering: % of D.C. election deniers sincerely deluded vs lying?

Tech companies have a First Amendment right not to be pressured by the government to remove content, and the apps that have a right to not be removed due to government censorship.

But even if they don't fight back, we all have a #1A right to access this information free from government censorship.
The federal government "jawbones" private companies by pressuring them to silence voices they can’t legally censor themselves, and Big Tech has erased ICE‑watching apps and an ICE-Sighting Chicago Facebook group.

An awesome and thoughtful piece.

“There is an unconscionable industry built around making people decide how much less than what they deserve they are willing to accept. Rejecting that as the false choice that it is… seems like a reasonable place to start.”

What, if anything, did the No Kings protests accomplish?

I've seen that pop up in everything from genuine inquiry to sneering dismissal. For anyone asking or facing that question, here's an answer.

Everything isn't all fixed, of course. But the protests accomplished at least these seven things:
