NEW: Rachel Maddow drops unseen bodycam footage of feds coordinating the arrest of Newark Mayor Baraka.

I REPEAT: the feds ordered his arrest even though he wasn’t breaking any laws.

Federal agent: “We are arresting the mayor right now per the Deputy Attorney General of the United States.”

Here's a solid take I agree with.
It’s truly depraved for Trump to welcome Vladimir Putin to the US while Putin is actively wanted by the International Criminal Court for war crimes in Ukraine.

Trump calls this a peace summit but it’s just an opportunity to hang out with one of his dictator buddies. www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-a...
Trump and Putin will meet in Alaska next week, Trump says
President Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin are planning to meet in the United States, multiple sources tell CBS News.

The Australian govt should immediately announce $500m funding for mRNA vaccine development.

Get those scientists here.

Just an amazing opportunity handed to us by the brain worm infested loon.
FFS:

RFK Jr. announced "that $500 million worth of vaccine development projects, all using mRNA technology, will be halted."

In his statement, RFK Jr. said "we're moving beyond the limitations of mRNA and investing in better solutions."

Antivaxxers continue to despise and lie about mRNA tech.
RFK Jr. pulls $500 million in funding for vaccine development
The Department of Health and Human Services plans to cancel contracts and pull funding for some vaccines being developed to fight respiratory viruses like COVID-19 and the flu.

Dear news media ( especially #BBC) please stop saying billions of $ in tariffs are *flowing into America* Tariffs are paid by the consumer in America and nobody else. Your adoption of Trumpist language is misleading and incredibly lazy.

ICE IS OUT OF CONTROL.

Video of SEIU California’s President David Huerta getting assaulted & arrested during an ICE raid in the warehouse district of Downtown Los Angeles today.

He’s an LA native, American citizen and labor leader.

There’s a simple reform the federal government could introduce to bring house prices down.

Directing APRA to force banks to limit loans given to investors would make it easier for people to buy a house they actually want to live in.

Landslide to Labor. Dutton loses seat. Libs at record low vote with no seats in most major cities…what a night for people ambitious for climate policy

No more need to even ask what the libs will do or what NewsCorp will say

Time to get on with genuine reform.

Libs can catch up or fade further
