This is all very funny but it also demonstrates a real fucking bleak turn for health and wellness stuff where it’s moved from “here are things you can do to make yourself healthier” to “if you do not do these things and get the expected results you are defective” which is basically govt policy now

AOC: Being taken is wrong, it is illegal, it is a violation of his First Amendment rights, it is an affront to every American, and we will not allow—and will continue to resist—the politicization and the continued political persecution that ICE is engaged in.

Swalwell: You were promised lower prices on day one. How many of you are feeling those lower prices?
You were promised an end to all wars on day one. How many of you have seen an end to those wars?
Donald Trump is 0 for 150. He made those promises on day one—and now we’re on day 150.

Today, he stood watch at a courthouse: ICE agents were “standing there covered with masks as we walked toward the courtroom. Eventually the agents scattered and went away”

Saying there are “too many non-working holidays” on Juneteenth is so on brand for a man who is actively trying to erase Black history.
This from the same man who’s wasted over $26 million in taxpayer dollars and spent more than 30 days golfing since January 20, 2025? Please.

Juneteenth is American history. And in our fight for liberty and justice for all, the end of slavery in the U.S. marked a turning point we should all be proud to celebrate. It's up to all of us to keep learning from the past and working toward a better future.

While we wait for the Supreme Court to rule in a critical redistricting case from Louisiana, this is what the GOP is up to in Texas and Ohio. Remember the GOP's plan is to make it harder for you to vote and easier for them to cheat.

My husband recently attended a wedding in Oklahoma where several white attendees openly bragged about collecting disability benefits while working under the table as plumbers and construction workers making $4000+/month. This is where the fraud is not with undocumented immigrants in Los Angeles.

We need some patriotic heroes, with the right kind of credentials, to get hired as what appear to be ICE bounty hunters, gather evidence, and then go public. I want to know what authority they are being told they have

I signed the final bills Melissa Hortman shepherded through the most narrowly divided legislature in the county. All of them bipartisan.
We debated, we found common ground, and we compromised.
