This time-lapse video of protesters marching down Broadway in Oakland for No Kings Day gives an idea of how many people turned out today @sfchronicle.com

1.2 million veterans rely on SNAP. 1.8 million rely on Medicaid.

The "Big Beautiful Bill" puts those programs on the chopping block.

All the North Korean-style theater in the world won't hide the fact that Trump’s policies would be devastating to millions who have served.

A reminder to reporters, when historians look back on this moment with the president throwing himself a military parade and the people throwing No Kings rallies across America, the media sources raving about the former and sneering at the latter are going to be quoted by name.

This is your legacy!

Local farmers blame tariffs, immigration crackdown for business losses, wasted crops

Self screwing Farmers who sowed the seeds of disaster by voting for Trump refuse to take ownership of the harvest they grew. Victimhood, the Trump way

Men are not constantly being told “you’re bad,” they are constantly being told “LEFT WING SJWS THINK YOU’RE BAD” by conservative propaganda. There’s a huge difference.
I have two sons, and I don't think I've ever seen messaging going "Don't be a boy" or "YOU'RE BAD."

Sure looks like that's in "I heard someone say that they heard..." territory, rather than actual direct experience.

Also worth noting, the main message from manosphere influencers is "YOU'RE BAD."
It's a brutal time for young men, and to be raising one. The primary message they now is get is "YOU'RE BAD" without any meaningful attempt to offer healthy pathways beyond "Don't be a boy."

Absolutely perfect time for right wing monsters to sweep in with shitty answers.

This is a clear, true, & important distinction that many people refuse to make.

The same is true of "fancy city dwellers condescending to hard workin' ruralites."

The same is true of "wokesters forcing you to use pronouns."

These are RW bogie men. RW hysteria exceeds actual examples 1000/1.

What a line from Warren Buffett this morning:

“Be kind, and the world is better off. I'm not sure that the world will be better off if I'm richer."

This is a great thread from Greg (only about 10 posts, worth your time.)

The only thing he didn’t do was wrap the needle back to the beginning.

Vance launders this bogus 20-million figure, then at the end uses it as “proof” that the problem is so big that due process is anti-American.
Over on The Hellsite, JD Vance has now functionally called for an end to due process for migrants. His argument is riddled with deceptions, bad faith, and embarrassingly awful logic. I think it needs a real response, so here's what I put up over there.

First, his 20 million number is fiction. 1/
