An obscure Texas firm secretly connected to Donald Trump Jr. said it received at least $100 million from Indian billionaire Mukesh Ambani’s Reliance Industries. At the same time, the Ambani family secured major policy wins from the Trump administration. (Published June)

The incredible cruelty of the dairy industry (among many horrific typical behaviors)...taking newborn away from mother so humans can steal the milk. Please don't support it. #PlantBased #GoVegan #vegan #Veganfood #milk #dairy #AnimalCruelty

BREAKING: The New Mexico Department of Justice has sued Acting AG Todd Blanche and the DOJ, requesting the court for access to unredacted Epstein-related investigative files that the DOJ has been withholding.

Every single Republican candidate for governor of Minnesota (including Mike Lindell!) makes clear that if Trump tried another Operation Metro Surge in the Twin Cities, they would support his efforts to brutalize residents

Now, as always, feel free to play the "What if Obama/Biden/Hillary had done that" game and then imagine the earth rattling, apoplectic, incandescent rage that would follow from the Right.

Gill: All 100 senators last week passed a non-binding resolution condemning any pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell. They're simultaneously considering confirming the guy who met with her and moved her to a low-security facility as the top cop in the United States. That is so insane to me.

Maybe we could stop being "slugs for salt?" Maybe we could try that?

This is a new view of the bulldozed White House complex. The criminal monstrosity subhuman filth won’t stop until he destroys everything, makes me sick to my stomach.

Stolen valor from Mr. Bone Spurs. An insult to every man and woman who has worn the uniform.

You can't be against #fascism or against #capitalism and also be pro-violence, pro-torture, pro-slavery and pro-murder. #Vegan is not a diet and also not a lifestyle. Vegan is non-violence and non-slavery. Vegan is anti-torture and anti-murder. If we need to deny to enjoy - we can't really enjoy.

Hugo@nonviolence.bsky.social · 14h ago

#Vegan steht für Gewaltfreiheit und Anti-Sklaverei und ist kein Lifestyle oder Diet. Vegan ist tatsächlich eine Anomalie, die das (selbst)zerstörerische System tatsächlich bricht.

From Stuart Greenberg: GOP Sens. John Cornyn and Thom Tillis are assholes!! If they really wanted to do the right thing, they’d use their new found power to get all the Epstein Files released before voting to advance Todd Blanche. Instead they roll over, sit up and perform on cue.

Call me crazy, but if a Democratic president had 350 accounts closed by their bank for money laundering it’d be more than a blip in the media

Oh for the love of all that is holy...

Booker: "Ghislaine Maxwell is sitting in the lowest possible confinement after giving no information that helped us get one more investigation started and has been silent, and the man responsible for that we're about to make the attorney general of the US ... this is farcical."

They need to hammer down relentlessly on this. They can't become overconfident, like they did with Hillary in 2016.

DOJ is now 0-20 in cases to obtain state voter files. Here is the list: Arizona California Colorado Connecticut Illinois Kentucky Maine Maryland Massachusetts Michigan New Hampshire New Jersey New Mexico New York Oregon Pennsylvania Rhode Island Virginia West Virginia Wisconsin

People build in forests because they love forests. But forests also burn. What is happening near Spokane is a tragedy—and a warning about decades of allowing homes to spread through fire-prone landscapes. Coeur d’Alene and Sandpoint may face an even greater reckoning.

More than 700 structures lost as 65,000 evacuate in Washington state wildfires

Officials have yet to determine how many of the destroyed structures were homes, businesses or schools. No injuries have been reported.

Mind boggling. So far from "leadership" that it's just breathtaking. "The worst, least qualified, and most unscrupulous..." It's a true kakistocratic party.

Adam Kinzinger@adamkinzinger.substack.com · 2d ago

So Tillis and Cornyn thought the 1.8. Billion dollar slush fun was so bad, that they will be willing to confirm the guy who came up with it. Huh

Which is why nonvegan "environmentalists" remain hilarious.

Annie Leymarie@annieleymarie.bsky.social · 2d ago

Beef is the top single cause of deforestation globally, by far. Next come oilseeds, especially soy and palm, but the vast majority of those is fed to livestock - chicken, pigs, dairy cows. We can't have our planet and eat it! We urgently need to shift diets away from animal-based foods.

And try your hardest to not be "slugs for salt." That's all I'm asking. You can do it. Gulp.

Donald J Trump is the MOST impeachable president in the history of the United States. 🇺🇸 Instead of impeaching him the Republicans protect him as they watch their fellow citizens, immigrants, & others globally suffer & die. Vote accordingly. 🗳️

We disgrace ourselves as a nation each and every day Donald Trump remains in office. The drafters of the United States Constitution provided a remedy for a criminally insane president like the one we have—impeachment and removal ...
