Reminder: At the start of his legal career, RFK Jr. failed the bar, was forced out as a D.A., and got arrested for heroin. Without the Kennedy name, that story ends there.

We’re going to go on a rant for a minute, and yes we’re bringing some history with us. Back in 1755, Benjamin Franklin wrote words that still echo today: “Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.”
Do any of these young men recognize how unhappy Trump is? He has all the money and power that anyone could ever want, and he is miserable. He is a cautionary tale.
Constituent: You talked about abuses in the medicare and medicaid system and I found interesting that the president pardoned someone that defrauded the medicaid system for $1.3 billion
There would be an immediate cease fire if Russia immediately ceases firing.
Russia is the aggressor! Russia invaded Ukraine! Russia must be forced to make concessions if we want to avoid future war. Instead, Ukraine is pressured to make them, which will encourage future wars. It's our land! Our people live there! Disrespectful and disgusting.
A dozen or more transgender members of the U.S. Air Force who had sought early retirement to avoid being discharged for their gender identity have had those retirements canceled. Each has served between 15 and 18 years.
The situation at the immigration detention center known as “Alligator Alcatraz” has gotten so bad that detainees have been on a hunger strike for over ten straight days.
This is not the most important thing, but 60 Minutes has taken the knee for Trump and Colbert's been given his walking papers for speaking against Trump. Basically, Paramount has fully submitted to the fascists, Paramount owns Nickelodeon, so if Nick News ever comes back, don't fucking trust it.
I am sure Stephen Colbert knew exactly what he was doing when he blasted Trump and his show’s parent company Paramount live on air. I hope he uses his remaining time to similar good effect. We need more people like him, unafraid to speak truth to Trump.

A few years ago, I ran into Jon Stewart on the steps of the Capitol and told him how much his work influenced me and made me less apathetic about politics and played a role in me getting into journalism. The same goes for Colbert and I hope I get to tell him one day.
“CBS canceled Colbert’s show just three days after Colbert called out CBS owner Paramount for its $16 settlement with Trump – a deal that looks like bribery,” Senator Elizabeth Warren wrote in a statement on social media.“ And so it begins… fuck. variety.com/2025/tv/news...

An indicted war criminal has nominated a convicted felon and adjudicated rapist for the Nobel Peace Prize. The world is going to hell in a handcart.
We’re calling for a Florida boycott over the inhumane “Alligator Alcatraz” detention site. Cancel your family vacation and choose a different destination this summer.
There are actually quite a few undocumented Russians in the US. Anyone have any videos of ICE forcefully deporting them? Or just the brown people?

As Shawn McCreesh and Tyler Pager report, House Republican holdouts were apparently swayed to support President Trump’s tax and spending bill by signed merch and photographs with the president.
I can’t speak for every city, but here in LA, ICE bounty hunters aren’t going after gang members. They’re hunting the vulnerable: gardeners, street vendors, day laborers. Easy money, no risk. Folks need to stop pretending this is about crime. @jacobsoboroff.bsky.social—thank you for your words.

Major General Randy E. Manner, former Acting Vice Chief, National Guard Bureau statement to Fox News: "This is an inappropriate use of the National Guard and is not warranted.”
Senator Ted Cruz posted a dramatic video of LAPD cars on fire with the caption “this… is… not… peaceful.” What he didn’t mention? The footage was from 2020, not 2025. His post on X falsely implied it was current, part of a broader effort to spread lies and manufacture a crisis.
Donald Trump accepted a $400 million luxury jet from Qatar, one of the biggest financial supporters of the Hamas terrorist regime, reserved for his personal use after he leaves office - and everyone's just going to forget about it by next week.
