This is a couple of weeks old, but i just saw it. Holy crap. This is big news, and I'd guess a harbinger for our economy as companies flee the uncertain status of well, everything. here.
Connelly Early is an elite baseball name and would also have been a solid Civil War name
They’re actually pretty good at what they believe they should be doing
Very weird that anyone in the press covers Trump’s illegal domestic military deployments as a crime story when the White House Press Secretary openly says “every Democrat-run city” instead of “high-crime city.” That’s not merely repeating their lie, it’s changing an admission into a lie for them.
CNN is openly running defense for sexual predators
Our big baby president
They shout “America first” but are always putting Americans last. Cutting SNAP and food assistance doesn’t make children healthy. You can’t talk about making America healthy again while taking food out of their mouths
Trump and his enablers are trying to rig the next election by redrawing congressional maps and diluting the power of Black and minority voters. I joined my colleagues of @cbc.house.gov to speak out against their authoritarian power grab.
So the fun thing about right-wingers all talking in Conspiracyspeak now is that you get really fun nonsense turns of phrase like this, which is especially notable at a point where, it has to be stressed, the mainstream media does not have a “whole narrative around Epstein” at this moment
Today marks the 175th birthday of our Golden State. For generations, California's been a beacon of progress and innovation. From the Gold Rush to the space race, from Silicon Valley to Hollywood, from agriculture to education, California's led the way in shaping America’s story.
Happy 175th Birthday, California! On September 9, 1850, we became the 31st state, skipping the usual territory stage & leaping into statehood. Fueled by the Gold Rush, California quickly became a land of opportunity & has been a state of big dreams. Here’s to 175 years of California dreaming!
The times that we are in force us to think not just like legislators, but like litigators (not to mention demonstrators). House Democrats are using every means available to defend the Constitution and the rights of the people against tyrants and ripoff artists.
BREAKING: Judge Cobb GRANTS Lisa Cook’s motion for a temporary restraining order to block her removal from the Board of Governors of the Federal Reserve
I am sickened by this ruling. Trump’s Supreme Court has reopened the door to dangerous and racially motivated immigration raids in Southern California, leaving families to wonder if heading to work or taking their kids to school could end in detention because of the way they look or talk.
Happy Birthday, California! 🥳 Today, we proudly celebrate 175 years of statehood. As we continue to define the future of this state, today serves as a testament to the spirit of Californians, driven by grit, determination, and a relentless belief in what’s possible.
The Trump Administration is once again failing to do its job — and California is cleaning up their mess. We're deploying state resources to protect the 2,000-year old sequoias on FEDERAL LANDS from the wildfires the federal administration are supposed to handle.
Happy Birthday, California. Here’s to 175 years of always setting the pace.
The police in Illinois work closely with the ATF to get guns off our streets, with the FBI to arrest gang members, and with the DEA to destroy the fentanyl trade. So why is Trump sabotaging our ongoing work with federal law enforcement partners?
"I want to help people, not hurt them,” says the guy who just threatened an American city with the Department of War.
That was the Border Patrol SUV from Pixar's Cars and it was very depressed
i truly hate this man
I really, really hate the term "checkdown merchant." All you're saying is "yes, he threw it to an open guy, but it didn't entertain me, the protagonist, enough."
wat
Right-wing justices on the Supreme Court have sanctioned racial profiling when targeting law-abiding immigrant communities. Shame on these extremists. They have zero credibility.

NEW PAGE FROM EPSTEIN’S BIRTHDAY BOOK: Epstein and a longtime Mar-a-Lago member joking about selling a "fully depreciated" woman to Donald Trump for $22,500.
are you there as an attendee or...
democrats lost so now they don't care if people know that
Axios know the word for this would actually be "recession" but they aren't allowed to use that word when talking about republicans.
You'll never guess who funds Hallow, the prayer app recommended by the White House. (It's Peter Thiel and JD Vance).
one of my superpowers is that I can remember which side of the liberal-left divide was most concerned with the Supreme Court in 2016.
this is actually worse than i imagined it was going to be because this does not look like a drawing of an adult woman, it looks like a drawing of a young girl
felt the same thing. bad vibes
Surprise, surprise: Trump’s White House wants to get rid of the watchdog that holds the executive branch accountable to the American people on critical budget issues. They don’t like anything with “Accountability” in the job description. We cannot stand for this. No Kings.
Crockett: It is so rich that the Republicans believe in small government and this is the biggest government I have ever seen
anyone else would resign or be forcibly removed by this evening.
See the letter written like that, like a conversation they're having while winking at each other, makes it so much creepier. There is no innocent explanation for this and anyone defending it should be on a list.
For months I've been pushing the Trump administration to launch a criminal investigation into JP Morgan's ties to Epstein, but Bondi and Bessent are too busy running interference for pedophiles. I'm not letting up. Stay tuned.
"Because he says my wife beatin' isn't a crime!"

hey jake big fan just want to let you know you're one of the biggest pieces of shit alive today. have a good one buddy
brb gotta find that post and post some very nice replies
trying to convince them its his real signature because he's an honest journalist, right? uh... right?
Friends don't let friends leave kids alone with Republicans
Authoritarians thrive on your silence — be loud — for America.
Donald Trump’s plan is one that’s been repeated over and over again by dictators across history — inciting the local population before sending disrupters. That’s how you convert a democracy into something else. Illinois won’t fall for this ploy.
Once Donald Trump gets the citizens of this nation comfortable with the current atrocities committed under the color of law – what comes next?
Donald Trump endangered public safety by pulling our servicemembers from their work at the border. California will continue to hold him accountable for his failed militarization of our National Guard.
Imagine what it'd be like if the President of the United States didn't live in an alternate reality... Donald Trump's deployment of U.S. soldiers and federal agents against the American people in LA brought nothing but chaos, terror, and millions in wasted tax dollars.
Donald Trump's hand-picked SCOTUS majority just became the Grand Marshal for a parade of racial terror in LA. His administration is targeting Latinos — and anyone who doesn't look or sound like Stephen Miller's idea of an American — to deliberately harm our families and economy.
Jake Tapper will be first in line
Trump, 2 months ago: I don’t do drawings. I’m not a drawing person. I don’t do drawings of women
We should demand that the people leading our nation’s energy policy have a basic understanding of how the technology they regulate works. This is embarrassing.
Reminder
Trump insisted the note did not exist, calling it a “fake thing.” Well, the note does exist. More: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...
Unemployment under President Trump has risen to the highest rate since 2021.
Montoya did a commendable job getting the team into the playoffs in their first season, but this season has been a step backward. This is the right move.
i am shocked, shocked! that the perjuring rapist fratboy that the GOP decided to elevate to the highest court in the country has no idea how the laws of the country work.
wow good thing the hysterical libs were completely wrong about the importance of SCOTUS in the 2016 presidential election.
Governor @iamwesmoore.bsky.social: “We do not need an occupation. We will work with anybody, but we will bow down to nobody.”
SCOTUS: considering race as one factor in a college applicant's file is blatantly unconstitutional ALSO SCOTUS: considering race as one factor in targeting whom to detain and deport is cool cool cool
Supreme Court Rules 6-3 That Fundamental Interests Of United States Of America Would Be Irreparably Harmed If It Race-Based Harassment And Detention By Masked Thugs Were Even Temporarily Halted
the maga constitution doesn’t allow any institution, public or private, to explicitly work to ameliorate racial inequality but allows the government to racially profile
The president is pro-domestic violence
"ABC and ESPN refused to kowtow. While they didn’t linger on Trump when he was shown during the national anthem … they didn’t filter out the reaction to him, either. The jeers and catcalls, resounding in Arthur Ashe Stadium, were clearly audible." www.usatoday.com/story/sports...
Fuck possess
Second half: more if the same. And I really don’t understand the lineup
These have been season-long issues. Hell they were issues last year too. We could compete with the top clubs with a tighter offense. We have talent. This is squarely on coaching. Albertin Montoya must go.
Bay FC nearly played the NWSL’s best team to a draw in the first half. We have a solid defense, even without Abby Dahlkemper. We have one of the league’s best young keepers in Jordan Silkowitz. But we had 0 shots on goal the whole half. We don’t posses well, pass well, or finish well.
Thousand island on iceberg is simply wrong. It’s ranch or bleu cheese
No Donald, Chicago is not your war zone
Right?
It must be
Basic-ass menu tbh
My message to Donald Trump is very simple.
The President is begging me to call him to bring in the National Guard. I’m not going to beg him for something we don’t want.
If Donald Trump truly cared about crime, he wouldn't be taking an axe to community violence intervention programs with track records in making Chicago safer. I was proud to meet with volunteers today who, regardless of the President, will continue to serve our communities.
Illinois refuses to fall into the trap that demands we sacrifice vital Constitutional rights if it’s being done in the fake guise of “fighting crime.” There is no emergency here that warrants the deployment of troops. And we won’t be begging for him to bring them to Chicago.
While Donald Trump is bringing in chaos and instability to neighborhoods like Berwyn, schools like Prairie Oak are continuing their work to educate and support the communities they serve. Being here today brings me a tremendous amount of hope and inspiration.
Why did I want to become Governor of Illinois? I wanted to help people.
It's extraordinary how Trump is refusing to coordinate with Illinois leaders. If he cared about fighting crime, he would double down on efforts like our FBI partnership — not putting our own troops on American city streets.
I'm about delivering for the people of my state — Donald Trump is about delivering for himself.
In Englewood today to meet with Peacekeepers who are working to create safer communities. It's folks like these that we need more of doing the hard work of community violence prevention, not troops on the ground to undermine efforts fighting crime.
As your Governor, I won’t stop fighting to defend your reproductive freedom.
The President of the United States is threatening to go to war with an American city. This is not a joke. This is not normal. Donald Trump isn't a strongman, he's a scared man. Illinois won’t be intimidated by a wannabe dictator.
Know your rights, Illinois. Stay safe and stay informed.
I’m not exaggerating when I say millions of $$ are going down the drain to fund Trump’s National Guard stunt in LA. Let's do the math: $71M for food and necessities $37M in payroll Over $4M in logistics supplies $3.5M in travel – the list goes on. It’s time to wake up, America.
Trump and the GOP Congress' agenda to Make America Smoggy Again is BACKFIRING. Hawai‘i and Wisconsin just announced they're joining us and 10 other states to fight for affordable clean cars. California continues to lead America into the future.
Still pretending you know what you’re doing, Donald?
What happens when you let the California National Guard do their job at the border and not hijack them for political theater.
California has officially joined the Northwest Wildland Fire Fighting Compact to share resources, tech, and expertise. While the Trump Administration retreats from firefighting, California is proud to join forces with our neighbors to protect our communities.
NEW: The City of Norwalk is now reversing their cruel ban on new homeless shelters after California sued. Local leaders are not exempt from helping to solve the homelessness crisis—and we'll keep fighting for accountability at every level.
The California National Guard under Trump's command vs. under their rightful command (mine!)
Immigrants help keep California’s $4T economy running. Trump’s mass raids and stripping people of legal status risk tearing it apart — gutting our workforce and raising costs for everyone while separating American families. End these senseless policies now, Donald Trump.
Chipocalypse is what happens when I’m drunk and there are chips in the house
