Jake Tapper reports that Greg Bovino on a call with the office of the US Attorney in Minnesota during Metro Surge made an antisemitic remark about the Trump-friendly US Attorney in Minnesota
ICE has fatally shot 11 people since Donald Trump's second term began. These are not isolated incidents. They are the predictable result of a cruel, violent system. Abolish ICE.
In Minnesota, girls sell lemonade on the street to help their sisters arrested by ICE. Stephen Miller’s goons are very much still here. Sign reads, “Please help us raise money for my sisters because they were arrested by ICE” & this has been confirmed by trusted community members.
400 masked cowardly Patriot Front bros walking through D.C. once, then fleeing ain’t shit, peeps. They are a tiny fetid drop in the American bucket. Remember Minneapolis at -20F. We are bigger, braver, and stronger. By a mile.
It’s been a hard and yet triumphant year for Minnesota. Ordinary people have been targeted by their fellow countrymen, and made heroic sacrifices for their neighbors. So, appropriate to remember that 163 years ago today, 262 average Minnesotans sacrificed themselves at the Battle of Gettysburg.
here is what i think: we're not consumers or spectators, we are participants with agency. you should not hope that democrats will do anything. you must work to force them to do the right thing. the odds are long, but we are far from the first americans to face long odds. we will win.
jamelle@jamellebouie.net · last mo.you know, when someone says something like "these are the things that need to be done to avert disaster" and your response is "you think democrats will do that?!?" all you're telling me is that you think politics is a spectator sport
we are one john roberts heart attack away from the complete dissolution of the reconstruction amendments and instantiation of a formalized caste system
the feds have done more to harass americans angry over good and pretti’s killings than they have to investigate them
Adam Steinbaugh@adamsteinbaugh.bsky.social · last mo.After federal agents shot Alex Pretti in Minneapolis, a New Yorker sent ICE's director an email in January comparing him to a Nazi. This week, DHS agents stalked him across New York. His home. A hotel. They gave his wife a letter warning of criminal prosecution. www.syracuse.com/news/2026/06...

Joe is right. To take it a step further, how is it not a scandal that John Roberts won’t even let you — the public who pays him — *listen* to the release of opinions? The court is sitting. The public can go and watch! How are opinion announcements not livestreamed?
Sometimes I see pictures of old Hollywood, and I just can't believe what this place used to be.🧵
The profound part of Juneteenth for me is that before this was made a holiday, there was no official celebration of the end of slavery in the United States. When the 13th Amendment passed in December 1865, the legislators who witnessed its enshrinement imagined that the day would be remembered.
US Attorney Rosen asked repeatedly versions of questions about why these indictments — where there is no asserted injury — exist and/or came before any indictments relating to the killings of Renée Good and Alex Pretti. He had no real answer beyond platitudes about ongoing investigations.
The Knicks were ahead halfway through the third quarter but there were wide changes in the results after that. It undermines integrity in the score.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 2mo agoRAJU: The president keep saying the California election was rigged. What evidence have you seen? SCALISE: You had wide changes after election night in the results R: They're just counting the ballots SCALISE: Look, whether you can prove fraud or not, it does undermine voter integrity in the vote
Billionaires and CEOs, from Wall Street to Silicon Valley, are warning America about the rise of anti-capitalism. But the system/administration they're profiting from right now isn't actually capitalism, in the first place. New episode with @stephruhle.bsky.social and @timmiller.bsky.social:
Dan Meyer@meyersmusings.bsky.social · 2mo agoExcellent analysis. The distance between "the haves" and "the have nots" is the largest it's ever been.

a VRA map that recognizes discrete and compact communities and creates districts accordingly? illegal race discrimination. packing every black person they can find i to a single district crossing the whole state? colorblindness and equal protection thank you sam alito
Stephen Wolf@stephenwolf.bsky.social · 2mo agoLouisiana House Republicans have passed a new 5-1 congressional gerrymander targeting 1 of 2 Black Dems. It packs Black voters from New Orleans to Baton Rouge in a snake-like 2nd District to make the other 5 heavily white/GOP. GOP senators already passed a similar map www.nola.com/news/politic...
CALIFORNIA: Less than 2 weeks to vote in the primaries. VOTE NITHYA RAMAN FOR MAYOR, please! (A) She's great and has a million ideas for how to fix the city (B) If you don't, a very dumb and bad man might win Pratt isn't even Trump 2.0. He's like a buggy Trump beta version. Don't let him run LA!
Airbnb is the biggest funder of a PAC spending $1,000,000 to keep Karen Bass in office. Right there in the fine print. Bass delivers the policy Airbnb wants. Airbnb spends millions to elect Bass. Angelenos pay higher rents. Pay-to-play. In the open. With receipts.
personally I think it's a very big deal that the Canada bureau chief for the @nytimes.com — certainly one of the highest-paid journalists in the country — asked an unspecified "AI tool" what Poilievre said & published its AI-hallucinated quotes in her reporting.
When courting the Democratic megadonors in the Hollywood Hills is a bigger priority than dealing with widespread homelessness and overcrowding in the rest of LA
