This is such good news! Now let's see how the government responds. Or fails to.

This administration thinks it can cancel Pride…
Oh honeybuns.
We never needed your permission in the first place.
Pride started as a riot.
If you keep encroaching on our rights, we’ll just go back to our roots.
Hint: it involves bricks.

Mike Lindell appears to have a lawyer just as smart as his client.

"It's just words" is *not* a defense in an action for speaking [defamatory] words.

The entire Federal Reserve Board should be embarrassed by this outrageous giveaway to one of Wall Street’s most derelict banks.
 
The Fed must release Wells Fargo’s exam reports for the last five years to the Senate Banking Committee so that Congress can review them.
Fed lifts restrictions placed on Wells Fargo in 2018 because of its fake-accounts scandal - The Boston Globe
It’s a win for Wells Fargo, which has spent nearly a decade trying to convince the public and policymakers that it had changed its ways.

Harvey Milk served his country honorably — first in uniform, then in public office.

Taking his name off this Navy ship sends a clear message, and it’s one of disrespect and cruelty.

It’s Pride Month so you can bet the Proud Boys are celebrating in their closets, the way self-hating, sexually repressed thugs in denial do.

Gonna say something obvious to most: real masculinity defends the defenseless, punches up not down, has compassion, and fights only on behalf of others to battle injustice or evil.

It doesn’t just lift weights and tweet in all caps and listen to Rogan and grow a beard to feel accepted by other men

Law enforcement officers should never cover their faces when making arrests or conceal their identities (unless they are working undercover). They work for us. We have a right to know who they are. These face coverings are frightening & unAmerican, as though they're ashamed of what they're doing.

This morning, like every morning, US President will wake up: paint his face orange, clip on his comical wig, put on a big floppy tie & oversized suit & weird platform shoes, and will go out in the world to steal as much money has he can while undermining US national security & economy & democracy.

“Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is a predator”.

These are the words of warning from his cousin Caroline Kennedy.

Republicans in Congress chose to ignore them, so RFK Jr. gets to commit #PublicHealthMalpractice and use our lives and health to do so. He needs to go.

BREAKING: Trump is keeping the $500M jet from Qatar—first as Air Force One, then as a “gift” to his library.

This isn’t diplomacy. It’s a goddamn bribe.

A blatant Emoluments Clause violation. The GOP isn’t silent—they’re complicit. This is organized crime in a red hat.
