The regime quietly ripped $3B in food stamps and Medicaid away from families. So Hawaii's governor just fought back with a genius move: a new 13% tax bracket on millionaires to fully fund the stolen aid. Read how a blue state just outsmarted Trump: 👇 www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/judge-orde...
Ossoff: He’s trying to put his face on the money. He's building a monument to himself . But see, Atlanta, he's doing these things now because no one will honor him when he’s gone… because he's a failed president and a national disgrace.
Black people are giving it these Confederates raw and uncut. This is how it’s gonna be now. You wonder what we’re thinking? It’s this. I believe this is activist Gary Chambers again in Louisiana.
Mark Zuckerberg built a massive data center in Georgia just hundreds of yards from people’s homes. Now the water pressure is gone. Sinks don’t run. Toilets won’t refill. Homes shake nonstop. Power outages are routine.
NEW. The Senate Judiciary and HSGAC reconciliation bills are out. They would fund, mostly through September 2029: - $38.2 billion for ICE - $26.1 billion for CBP - $5 billion for a DHS deportation slush fund. - $1.5 billion for DOJ criminal enforcement - $1 billion for Secret Service ballroom work
Why is this not the only thing everyone in the media is talking about?
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 6mo agoTrump: "No president has ever taken a cognitive test except me. I've taken three of them. One in the first administration. They're hard. The first question is easy. You have a lion, a bear, an alligator, and a squirrel. 'Which is the squirrel?'"

Mockler: This administration is not just changing objectives every single day. They're lowering the threshold for what victory is considered as.
Mockler: If we have won so decisively, why can't we get a single ship through the strait of hormuz? Why won't we even try to escort a ship through the strait of hormuz?
Meijer: They don’t have a Navy anymore. Mockler: It was 55 years old. Jennings: They were constantly harassing ships in the gulf. Mockler: They’re still doing that.
Maddow: How is Jared Kushner's role in the U.S. attacking Iran not more of a show-stopping scandal?
With the context of this guy being indighted on 100 counts before he became president and everyone still acting like they are going to concede any power while the media plays pretend for the public is like watching slow motion car crash.
This tracks The National Geographic voice caps it off though ☠️
🔥 the only appropriate reaction to Lydia Moynihan
Yesterday morning kids were sent running from their bus stop in panic because ICE showed up. This guy at today’s ICE Out of Lindenwold protest is a must watch 😭. @maddow.bsky.social
The corruption of this administration is beyond understanding. Would not want to be on the side supporting them.
The overwhelming majority of jobs at the two biggest companies in America pay less than $20/hr. Meanwhile, the heads of those companies are some of the richest people on the planet. See the problem?
This is Link. His ball suddenly went missing and then reappeared trapped under his bed. He called his brother Otto in for backup, knowing they'd need all three of their collective brain cells to get it back. 12/10 for both (IG: thegoldenbruvs)
Republicans are taking a short break from cutting billions of dollars from the SNAP budget to pretend they care about Americans going hungry
While the top 1% control $54 TRILLION (not a typo)
And I would like to challenge this person to get a real job

SNAP is not the reason your taxes are high. SNAP recipients don’t need to “just go get a job”. Most of them work. The rest are disabled, elderly, children or caregivers. People need & deserve assistance Your taxes fund wars and tax cuts for the ultra rich Be mad about that
I haven’t seen anyone talk about how Jane Doe - an Epstein survivor - just sued the Bank of New York Mellon for funding Epstein and failing to file a Suspicious Activity Report. A Mellon heir is the one who gave $130M to pay the troops. Seems bribey to me.

Ron Filipkowski@ronfilipkowski.bsky.social · last yr.Trump claims that a mystery friend has donated $130 million to pay troops (it would cover a fraction) but we can’t know any details because he “doesn’t want recognition.” I appreciate anyone willing to give $130 million to our troops but I’d still like to know more about this.
