This is a lot of words to say that DOJ is in violation of the statutory deadline and will take even longer to produce records that were due last week.

"Samuel" sent us this photo from where he is pruning apple trees in WA State. "Holding up the pruning shears up all day is hard on your arms, shoulders, and back. But it's the type of work we have at this time of year and it feeds my family" #WeFeedYou

"Andrea" sent us this video for McFarland CA where she is harvesting Mandarin oranges. "It is very tough work going up the ladder all day and moving the ladder in place, but this work feeds my family. We get paid $60 for each 900lb bin." #WeFeedYou

On this day in 1924, a Czech Jewish woman was born. On the 9 Jun 1942 she was deported to the Theresienstadt Ghetto and on the 12 Jun 1942 to the Trawniki concentration camp where she perished. Her name was Vlasta Freundová

Conservatives have long worked to brand antisemitism as a problem that exists exclusively on the left. The chaos at AmericaFest this past weekend suggests that narrative is collapsing, and the MAGA movement is being forced to confront its own internal fault lines.

CBS pulled the 60 Minutes CECOT segment, but Canada aired it anyway.

The segment was streaming via Global TV and YouTube (since taken down). Having a VPN set to Canada helped. 🇨🇦

My take, there is no reason we shouldn’t see this. Most of it was known information, easily searchable.

The Cracker Barrel thing was THIS YEAR. We have three more years of this shit. Anybody who makes it to 2028 without looking like Nosferatu will be required by the state to start a skincare brand.

They’re losing control and it shows: ICE played musical detainees, Epstein files did a vanishing act, wind projects died of “classified,” and judges ordered due process reinstated. States sued, courts pushed back, and power started squealing like bald tires on a crumbling road.

Reality: Half had no charges, “ICE’s own records say only 3% had been sentenced for a violent crime”

FCC Commissioner Gomez is right. This FCC’s unprecedented threats against broadcasters are already suppressing free speech by sending the message that media companies hosting content critical of the President will invite government retaliation. That is censorship and not what America stands for.

Clearly RFK Jr. is not aware the individual pediatricians he thinks parents should discuss vaccines with are the same pediatricians who have been collectively calling out his bull$hit for decades.

Vaccines are safe and effective.

BREAKING: CBS just yanked a 60 Minutes episode and slapped the word “postponed” on it like people are stupid. Trailer wiped. Segment gone.

This isn’t a delay — it’s a cover-up in real time. They’re protecting “someone”. Period.

The fact that this government gives billions to ranchers and farmers is another reason why it's an insult that this government is also reducing the wages of farm workers to put more money in the pockets of ranchers and not in the pockets of farm workers. #WeFeedYou

I’m old enough to remember when CBS News would never have surrendered to a demagogic president or any other politician. Remember Edward R. Murrow?

This has always been a Bluesky-first campaign. But as of today, we will no longer be using Twitter. At all.

And I'm calling on other candidates to follow suit.

I find it more than ironic that at a time when almost the entire conservative moment is trying to defend their Dear Leader's relationship with the world's most notorious child sex trafficker, their new celeb of choice is the wife of a registered sex offender.

Have you ever heard someone go off, and their words are so perfectly chosen, so well said in that moment, that you’re in awe? You think, “There’s nothing to add here,” and you applaud in your head.

That’s exactly this. Pure perfection. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

MASSIE: The quickest way and most expeditious way to get justice for these victims is to bring inherent contempt against Pam Bondi. That doesn't require going through the courts. We're drafting that right now.
