You probably know me from TikTok or Instagram. Maybe old school Twitter. I find good news the media ignores. #VoteBlue

- It’s telling that Republicans hate the concept behind our No Kings marches. (Cartoon by Clay Bennett.)
- So in the end, Charlie Kirk’s shooting wasn’t just a white on white crime, but it was a far right on right crime. Watch Republicans go silent on this in 3… 2… 1…

- The only silver lining about Trump breaking things is that Americans come to recognize the importance of what he's breaking. A new Gallup poll shows that a record-high 79% of U.S. adults say immigration is a good thing for the country.
- Elon Musk set out to change the federal government and utterly gave up in 4 months. I find it hilarious that anyone is taking him seriously about starting a new party. Dude is allergic to doing actual work.

- What if, and stick with me here, Trump’s calls to the holdout Republicans aren’t working because they are are ALSO getting calls from Elon Musk saying “I’ve got your back” if Trump is threatening you with a primary opponent. 🤔
- After the over-the-top and inescapable Bezos wedding, I just don't know how Republicans can stomach giving the uber-wealthy EVEN MORE MONEY while taking away life-sustaining services from everyone else.
- I honestly don’t know why Trump has gone completely off his rocker since bombing Iran. He is flipping TF out about anyone even suggesting the mission wasn’t a resounding success. Why? Why THIS issue?

- Word of warning: Anyone saying they KNOW what’s going to happen in the coming days is lying to you. They’re interested in clicks, not truth & facts.
- Back in 2003, Bush lied to the American people about WMDs to justify attacking Iraq. Trump also clearly misled the country and didn’t even inform Congress about his intention to bomb Iran. He didn’t even listen to his own intelligence agencies. Every American is less safe today.

- Truly, is there any difference in the heart of a person who murders vs the person who laughs at the murder? #MikeLee
- Remember how Trump went after big law firms, targeting their ability to do work with the federal govt? Some sued, and Trump has been losing those lawsuits. But he isn’t appealing the decisions. What does that tell you?

- There’s a flash flood warning for DC today. Think Trump’s sharpie can fix that? #nokings

- Y’all are going to a No Kings protest this weekend, right? (Cartoon by @bagleycartoons.bsky.social )

- Once again MAGA and Fox News are confused about the difference between a riot and a protest. Here’s one of my helpful charts: On the left is DC on Jan 6. On the right, Los Angeles this weekend.
- Trump‘s legally dubious move to deploy the National Guard in Los Angeles won’t be the last city he tries this with. His proclamation declaring he has the power to do this did not specifically cite Los Angeles. It’s open ended. Which means he’s going to try this anywhere he wants.
- Love this. Sending love and power to the L.A. activists.
- Of all the things I don’t care about, I care about this the least: Headline: “DOGE Staffers Fear Getting DOGE’d Themselves”
- You know, if Trump doesn’t want to be known as the TACO president, he needs to stop chickening out.
- We can enjoy that Musk & Trump are flaming the hell out of each other. But we don’t need to take sides. I’m rooting for both of them to take mortal wounds.
- Why Trump is freaking out this morning: “ADP’s report showed private payrolls ticked up by just 37,000 in May, far below the Dow Jones forecast for 110,000.”

- **Good News** The Supreme Court announced it would NOT hear a major 2nd Amendment challenge to a Maryland law banning semiautomatic rifles like the AR-15.

- WaPo is reporting that the Senate is poised to take out House Republicans’ provision in their budget bill that would limit courts’ ability to enforce nationwide injunctions. 👍🏼
- Non-political post. I’m pulling together a book list for the summer and would love recommendations. I’m game for any genre. What have you loved or are looking forward to read?

- Man, they were not kidding when they said Joni Ernst made it worse. What a foul person.
- According to the Wall Street Journal, Trump recently asked his advisors a question about Elon and DOGE: “Was it all bullshit?” Sharp as a tack, that one. 🙄
- Of course Trump is bitching about the judges who ruled against his tariffs by calling them “unelected” but the truth is the 3 were named by Ronald Reagan, Barack Obama and yes, Trump himself.

- First we had ETTD Now we have TACO Yes, I’m chronically online.
- News from Europe: Travel to the US is down 10%. Tesla sales are down 49%. So much for Trump’s claim that his decisions would make America “so rich.”

- I just watched a clip of Trump talking about some dude with a trophy wife to West Point graduates. I don’t see how anyone watches that clip and doesn’t think that man is out of his mind.
- Are Proud Boys cosplaying as ICE agents, or are ICE agents dressing up like Proud Boys?  Both are extremely problematic.
