Mike Elias stood aside Adley Rutschman after the 2019 draft, marking him as the start of a bright future. Now, Elias has sold his All-Star, acknowledging yet another failed roster. Why should the Orioles keep trusting this guy to fix his own mistakes? www.thebanner.com/sports/oriol...

MAGA doesn't care. It's a cult devoid of facts. Those assholes made an illegal immigrant the world's first trillionaire.

Hey, USA Today, any updates about a piece on how the $70 billion slush fund for ICE is costly for U.S. taxpayers? No?

Yup. I burned out.

The rest of your natural life—and then some. That's how long we'll be cleaning up the mess of Trump and MAGAism. The nation as it was before is lost. It won't return. What we seek to save now isn't what used to be. It'll be something else altogether. It'll be what we make it.

And the message from Democrats is, "Stongly worded press release coming!"

Kevin M. Kruse@kevinmkruse.bsky.social · last wk.

The message from Republicans is clear. If you want to enrich yourself and your family, to break laws with impunity, to punish your enemies and jail your critics, then the federal government is the place to be. But if you want to help ordinary Americans and try to keep them safe, well, fuck you.

Because our representatives listen to people like you, not people like us. We can't afford to pay off our reps like the rich can.

If you want change and a chance for M4A , why aren’t you calling your senator screaming for them to support the Break Up Big Medicine Bill from Sens warren and Hawley? That’s your best first step

At some point? What is your job?

CASSIDY: At some point, Congress has to weigh in. If the president wraps this up quickly, that's fine. It it doesn't happen, the president has to come to Congress BASH: But he won't do that unless you force him to by law CASSIDY: Uhhhhmmmm

Let's start at 1b Deal?

What the cutoff ? 1b , but not 999m ? 500m 100m 10m ? 1m ? At what point is it exploitation or someone did the dirty work ?

The best way to get to the bottom of the McConnell question is for the governor to appoint a replacement. The GOP legislature passed a law stripping him of that power, but it goes against the state constitution. If they refuse to seat the replacement, take them to court. There’s zero downside.

the real story behind this viral photo is even more heartbreaking than the one the public created.

The Woman in the Photo Wanted to Be Alone. Instead, She Went Viral.

America saw what it wanted to see on the face of its newest icon. And everyone saw it wrong.

Still on the hunt for the answer: How many childrens hospitals, or anything like that, has Elon Musk funded and built since he is now the richest man in the world? I mean, he's an immigrant, and should be grateful for the opportunity we gave him, and want to give back. Right?

Today I am moved by power of this example of how Black people hold our own history. Without museums. W/o official declarations or monuments. In community. Happy Juneteenth!

Sherrilyn Ifill@sifill.bsky.social · 2mo ago

It’s Juneteenth. On June 19, 1865, Gen. Gordon Granger arrived in Galveston Island & issued General Order No. 3. It announced that “all slaves are free.” This story of this one event was commemorated through the diaspora of Black Americans for more than 150 years before becoming a national holiday.

Lesser of two evils. Get Collins out now. We can handle Platner later.

Allison Gill@muellershewrote.com · 2mo ago

Now that Platner has won the primary, I want to be clear. When I said “vote blue no matter who” in 2016, 2020, and 2024, I meant it. I’m worried about Platner, but if you say “vote blue no matter who” in Maine, I hope you’ll extend the same courtesy to other Dems. I hope we beat Collins.

I feel like i should do a follow up visit to Rep. Massie. I wonder how he's feeling now. #bmoregoat youtube.com/shorts/sHcUV...
