I have been charged in a federal indictment sought by the Department of Justice.

This political prosecution is an attack on all of our First Amendment rights. I’m not backing down, and we’re going to win.

Speaking of voices under attack…can we be just as loud about Black journalists and comedians who are silenced, even by our so-called liberal outlets.

Last week, Boston received a letter from AG Bondi threatening to prosecute officials and withhold funds unless we cooperate with carrying out mass deportations.

The US Attorney General asked for a response by today, so here it is: stop attacking our cities to hide your administration’s failures.

Why won’t the Epstein mess change their minds? How can we flip them? What message can we bring to a Trump voter to change their thinking?

I’m going to say this as gently as I can: You can’t. You can’t change a three-time Trump voter.

Them: "We agree on more than we disagree."

Me: "I dunno, concentration camps and Nazi stormtroopers are a dealbreaker for me and they should be for you."

Them: "Liberal cuck."

How about "abolish ICE and also let's primary John Fetterman"?
What’s outrageous is pretending this cruelty is necessary. What’s inappropriate is defending it while our communities suffer.

We don’t need more masked men in tactical gear, we need humanity.

Time for some real talk: @thexylom.com, the only Asian American-run news outlet covering science, climate, and the environment, will run out of funding in July if we don't secure $7,500 by the end of the month. I might lose my job at a time while waiting for a visa extension -- a nightmare scenario.
Urgent! Every Dollar Counts!
We grow science with words, and are the only Asian American-run science newsroom: independent, nonprofit, led by Gen-Z! The Xylom needs to raise $7,500 by the end of the month to stay afloat. Please…

Shouldn't you be able to grow facial hair before you're allowed to (checks notes) defend the entire US population against terrorist attacks?

Shouldn't you also, I dunno, have been ALIVE during 9/11?
Reminder again: this is the 22 year old boy Trump put in charge of preventing a terror attack at home:

It was always a crystal clear 100% certainty that if the orange convicted felon was sent back into the White House instead of being sent to prison that he would bring the United States into war, economic collapse and total chaos. This is on everyone who voted for him.

Oh good, the Democratic plan of (checks notes) "letting geriatric dementia patients shuffleboard their way through committee meetings until they die at their desks weeks after assuming office" seems to be going really great, everyone.
Just in: David Hogg is leaving his position as DNC vice chair after the party voted to redo the role's election.

This follows intense infighting, and as Hogg told us, anger with his plan to oust what he called "asleep at the wheel" incumbents in primaries around the US.

🎧 Listen to the ep here.
David Hogg’s fight for the future of the Democratic Party
The gun control activist and DNC vice chair is targeting “asleep at the wheel” incumbents. But could his primary strategy lead to his own ousting?

I can't believe any Democrat would THINK of allying with Elon Musk.

I won't take money from the guy who does a Hitler salute. It's really that simple.

This is abjectly terrifying but also... why does this Nazi look like he's doing a Ron Burgundy impression?

The male loneliness epidemic seems like a skill issue to me.

(Also, I'm wildly terrified at terrorism protection in the US going forward)

Thinking you’re going to get an apology and remorse from the people who voted for this is like thinking your narcissistic parent is going to apologize for your childhood. These people think not apologizing or acknowledging regret is a virtue. And additionally, a form of image control.
