A glimpse into Trump's make-believe world of "giant water valves" in Northern California…
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · last yr.Trump: "We send hundreds of millions of gallons of water a day to the Pacific Ocean. They turn a valve and the valve heads out. And we turned the valve back. I actually had to do it using force. We turned the valve back and now they have water."
A single @votersoftomorrow.org college chapter registered 450 voters last week, but hey, congrats to TurningPoint for their impressive 3 new voters!

Character. Session began w First Lady Zelenska addressing First Spouses at UNHQ. Mic at the podium wasn’t working, UN scrambled.. she said: “What if I just sit at a desk anywhere where a mic works?” Example of focusing on what matters ..she then spoke about the impact of Eleanor Roosevelt.

This could be “the largest public corruption scandal in the history of the United States"—amounting to a $2B bribe from an Emirati royal and the sale of the world’s most valuable artificial intelligence chips to the UAE, despite national security concern. trib.al/iZEOnGq

🚨🚨BREAKING: A federal judge in Tampa has tossed out Donald Trump’s $15 billion lawsuit against the New York Times, writing: “The complaint is decidedly improper and impermissible.” Trump is a loser.
Sheinbaum: I didn’t say this in the meeting, Prime Minister Carney, but I’m saying it right now. We celebrate the constant growth of Canadian tourism in Mexico.

CALL TO ACTIVISM@calltoactivism.bsky.social · last yr.🚨NEW: "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" just dropped its first response to ABC, FCC chair, and Disney firing Jimmy Kimmel. Trump ain't sleeping tonight. 🤣 This is a must-watch. 🔥
