Meiselas: A MAGA anti-vax extremist opened fire on the CDC, killing a heroic Black officer. 500 shots fired. Do we hear Trump or JD Vance saying anything? Cohen: Not even thoughts and prayers.

Thomas Jefferson was 44 when he began what many in 2025 STILL consider a romantic tryst or loving affair with Sally Hemings. Ms. Hemings had no legal capacity to consent to such a relationship not only because she was enslaved, Jefferson's property, BUT ALSO BECAUSE SHE WAS 14-YEARS-OLD. /1
I don't care if Clinton is in the Epstein files. I don't care if Obama or Biden are in the Epstein files. I don't care if any other Democrats are in the Epstein files. Because I'm not in a cult. I want accountability. It's that simple. Release the Epstein files.
Meanwhile, over on X:
“These detainees are living in cages. The pictures you have seen don't do it justice. They are essentially packed into cages. 34 detainees per cage.”
Men are so emotional.
"more than 1,000 counties — one out of three in the nation — do not have the equivalent of even one full-time local journalist." Uhhh... this is catastrophic for democracy. www.niemanlab.org/2025/07/new-...
Absolutely incredible turnout for Budapest Pride! So proud of all the organizers, including some old friends, who estimate hundreds of thousands— major embarrassment to Orban

New Yorkers: good luck today and remember not to vote for or even slate anyone who is a known sex pest
This is oligarchy. This is obscene. While 60% live paycheck to paycheck & kids go hungry, Jeff Bezos, worth $230 billion, goes to Venice on his $500 million yacht for a $20 million wedding & spends $5 million on a ring while his real tax rate is just 1.1%. End this oligarchy.
He just dropped $280,000,000 worth of artillery in a war that’s not ours, but our grandparents have to live on Ramen noodles because America can’t afford Meals on Wheels anymore. Make it make sense.
Hi, it’s Meg again. Brad is still in ICE custody. We are grateful to the many friends, supporters, and allies who have gathered in Federal Plaza. Together we are standing up for those with no voice.
"We do not want to give Trump an excuse to crack down on peaceful protest, which is exactly what he wants to do." @ezralevin.bsky.social explains why No Kings protests are leaving Washington, D.C. to Donald Trump for his "pathetic little parade."
Turns out he has the cards.

Happy Independent Bookstore Day 📚 Not everyone can always get to their library. It’s important for kids, for people to build their home libraries. To discover books they love so much they reread them over and over and over again. Enter one of the library’s greatest friends… the indie bookstore 💛
"Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth recently ordered modifications to a room next to the Pentagon press briefing room to retrofit it with a makeup studio ... "Hegseth hasn't used the press room to brief reporters. But it has been a set for his TV appearances..." www.cbsnews.com/news/hegseth...
Well deserved.
🚨House Republicans just passed a bill that would disenfranchise 70 million married American women. Under the SAVE Act, women who took their spouse’s last name and don't have an updated passport or birth certificate would be turned away at the polls.
"Who could have predicted this?" say the people who spent the past year dismissing or mocking those who predicted this.
Last night I wrote about Abrego Garcia’s case. Today, SCOTUS confirmed it’s true. Even though their stay is just temporary, he remains in cruel & unusual conditions in a foreign prison with no recourse. It could happen to any of us. joycevance.substack.com/p/the-week-a...
Y’all gotta go read books. There’s no way around it. Read books. Form your own opinions. LEARN THINGS. READ BOOKS WHILE LIBRARIES ARE STILL AROUND
Was explaining to David (11) the tariff stuff and what a tariff is and he was like “you mean like what started the revolutionary war?” And I was like; yes exactly.

This is a moral moment. It is not left or right, it is right or wrong.

It’s unclear whether Elon Musk’s enthusiasm for space exploration, and his influence with President Trump, could help shield NASA from sweeping cuts—or encourage Musk to remake it in his image.
I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable. Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes. Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.
You are wrong! DO MORE or be left behind.

For those of you who watched the video of an Idaho woman experiencing handmaid‘s tale treatment, now is the time to decide what you would do in that situation—whether it's you or whether you're nearby when this happens to someone else. We are in a moment where we all have to decide who we are.
The sooner we collectively realize that Elon Musk is a shitposting, conspiracy-addled fool, who needs to stay out of public policy not upend it, the safer we’ll all be.

hello cis friends this is what people mean by trans genocide if a type of person does not officially exist, then any harm against them cannot be measured or reported this headline change isn't even being caused by an executive order it's simply the NYT editors deciding we don't deserve to exist

At Cabaret yesterday, Cliff said his line “…if you’re not against all this then you’re for it. Or you might as well be”. The audience interrupted the scene to applaud that line so strongly it stopped the show. Doing a show about the onset of fascism right now is. . . chilling.

It's getting a little North Korean around here.
True.
@veganjedi.bsky.social which one of our spouses will cave first and buy this for us?
A federal court just blocked Elon Musk from interfering with the federal government’s payments system. There is power in fighting back. We won’t let up until this block is permanent.
LFG, Liz.
REPEAT AFTER ME: NOBODY VOTED FOR ELON MUSK PASS IT ON.
DO F’N MORE.
Do more.

It’s common sense that defunding $20M from our public schools is irresponsible and harmful. Full stop. 🛑 CC: @nolacitycouncil.bsky.social
This is the moment we’ve always been headed towards. If the President refuses to follow a court’s order we are in deep crisis. The GOP has courted this disaster.

I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world. Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO
