Good God.
NEW: Air Force jets are doing ICE flights to Africa with transponders turned off, making them nearly un-trackable.

This includes the third-country removal to Ghana and another secret flight. We figured out where it landed.

From me for @rollingstone.com:

FIFA needs to move the World Cup final out of the US next year before Trump ruins the world’s biggest sporting event for the winning nation Trump is so disrespectful to take away from Chelsea’s win.

Whyyyyyy was Trump at the lifting of the trophy? Moron has to make everything about him.

Heartbreaking news. I love the North Rim & sad for the losses.
The Grand Canyon Lodge, the only lodging inside the park at the North Rim, was consumed by the flames, park Superintendent Ed Keable told park residents, staff and others in a meeting Sunday morning.

The GOP strategy for decades now has been to defund government services and then use their lack of capacity to now serve their intended function as further evidence of government inefficiency that should be addressed through privatization
I'm just saying....

I watched 20 minutes of the Shark Whisperer documentary & Ocean is exasperating. Couldn’t even finish. More science please!
One key problem with the claim that Ocean Ramsey is saving sharks by convincing people that they're not dangerous is "people wrongly thinking sharks are dangerous" is not the reason why sharks are threatened.

Personally, I prefer to solve conservation problems based on evidence, data, and reality.

It should prob be remembered that “birthright citizenship” was the product of the abolitionist mvt, which understood that no person of color would be safe from deportation or bondage if their citizenship could be questioned or taken away

Anyone who doesn’t understand the need for #PrideMonth needs to watch the Sally Ride documentary on Hulu. An extraordinary person who hid her personal life b/c it could cost her career. 🌈

The reality however, is, poor white people will choose to stay poor white people as long as there are POORER Black and other POC.

If you don't understand that, you don't understand America. People keep looking beyond what's been right in front of them forever.
"The Trump administration has continuously turned on the voters who elected him, and his pivot against the poor will be felt the most by his base, which is largely white and poor (or barely middle class) in rural America."

My latest.

Trump’s Approval Ratings Are Tanking
“I voted for him, but I didn’t vote for this” has been a common refrain lately

This is a harrowing and necessary read.
One of our earliest civil rights statutes was designed to protect us against masked gangs who violate our constitutional rights. This particular history makes the masked ICE gangs uniquely repugnant. open.substack.com/pub/sherrily...

At this point, we have all seen the videos.

I spent 10 or so years of my life scared—like deadly scared—of being dragged and taken by immigration officials

The images you’re seeing on your screens RIGHT NOW are the real-life personification of people’s worst fears

We Bucks fans have watched this multiple times with Giannis too in multiple seasons. Shorten the season.
If that's what we all hope it isn't, Haliburton is the THIRD PLAYER to suffer the injury IN THE LAST TWO MONTHS.

I do not like Haliburton, but fans don’t want to see a competitor go out like this.
Tyrese Haliburton helped to the locker room in Game 7, as seen on the ESPN on ABC broadcast. #NBA #NBAFinals

Tomorrow, we’ll be at the federal courthouse alongside people from all walks of life to show that, in America, WE DON’T DO KINGS.
What do we do?
We do joy.
We do equality.
We do kindness.
We do acceptance.
We do freedom.

We know tensions are high. Our goal is to have a safe, peaceful, fun event.

"The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command" - 1984
Fox hosts, parroting DHS, claimed Sen. Padilla "ran at,” "lunged at," and tried to “bum-rush” Kristi Noem. Video disproves their claims, showing Padilla standing calmly across the room asking his question as security grabs him.

“His erasure of the LGBTQ+ and Latino communities today may say a lot about what kind of person he is, but it doesn’t change the fact that those were the communities most directly impacted…that families have empty seats at dinner tables, friends have missing faces at birthday parties.
June 13, 2025 at 6:48 PM
Do something about it!
What happened to Senator Padilla in California today is outrageous. Senator Padilla is a respected leader of great dignity and he has every right to ask a question of Secretary Noem without being slammed down and handcuffed.

Moran tells the truth as a journalist & gets fired. Some bs.
BREAKING: Terry Moran is out at ABC News. "We are at the end of our agreement with Terry Moran and based on his recent post – which was a clear violation of ABC News policies – we have made the decision to not renew," an ABC spokesperson says.
