This is a real headline.

Are we even a country anymore? It feels like we're descending into a pit of nihilism and cruelty.

While after this last weekend I have much more hope that there will be pushback against this—and significant pushback—the threat to our way of life is profound and terrifying.

House Republicans voted to kick 16 MILLION people off their healthcare.

Today, Senate Republicans proposed BIGGER CUTS to Medicaid, just to fund bigger tax cuts for giant corporations.

Call your senator.

LOOK AT THIS SHIT: Marines and ICE team up in a show of force, turning a community swap meet into a surveillance operation.

Witnesses say people were cornered, forced to identify themselves, and had their photos taken — without suspicion or a warrant.

This is a police state.

True.
I think one of the reasons you hear so much visceral anger coming from Dems about politics these days is bc for years now we’ve been expected to respond with dignity and respect (which we do) when political violence touches the GOP. But when it touches us - we get the Mike Lee’s of the world.
Because of my work and writing, I've talked to countless elected officials and their staffers about political violence over the past several years. Mostly Dem, though not all. The collective trauma for these folks is immeasurable and justified. With no recourse. www.semafor.com/article/06/1...

Forcefully stopping and detaining my constituent and interrogating him about which hospital he was born in solely because he’s Latino is blatant racism. ICE's racial profiling is terrorizing communities, targeting U.S. citizens and making us less safe. www.nytimes.com/2025/06/15/u...

Remember, MAGAs are NPCs. Sheep. Give it a day and every last MAGA will be swearing up and down that there’s hard proof the CCP—longtime business partners with Trump; Trump has sought illegal election aid from them *twice*—were actually aiding Biden.

This is all so F*CKING DUMB.

One of the folks close to the 2020 plot—itemized in 600 pp. and thousands of citations—was a staffer for Grassley. Who was the first person in media Patel went to? His old co-plotter, Solomon. What was the first GOP office he went to? Grassley’s. Maybe more people should’ve read Proof of Corruption.

Both sides news coverage is killing democracy and there is no place where it is more dangerous that in how legacy media covers the GOP attacks on free and fair elections.

Trump is now on Twitter posting doctored photos of the tattoos of Kilmar Garcia.

The whole world knows we have a deranged lunatic in the White House—and no one seems to know what to do about it.

He is so obviously mentally unwell that there is no longer any serious debate about whether that is so.

A U.S. Justice Department lawyer told a judge on Friday that the Trump administration reserves the right to deport alleged Venezuelan gang members on Saturday.

Question: Have they repeated this threatening reservation after the Supreme Court’s 1 am order on Saturday morning?
