Just so we’re crystal clear: Trump is now funding the murder of Ukrainian women and children to try and win the midterms. America is lost.

The is the federal government telling news stations to provide favorable coverage of the war or their licenses will be pulled. A truly extraordinary moment. We aren't on the verge of a totalitarian takeover. WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF IT. Act like it.

From the WSJ: “Last year, a record 6% of workers in 401(k) plans administered by Vanguard Group took a hardship withdrawal. That is up from 4.8% in 2024 and a prepandemic average of about 2%,according to Vanguard The data paint a divergent financial picture of American workers’ finances” #inequality

We are not fighting over policy or political party. We are fighting over whether we are going to be a civilization rooted in empathy and kindness—or cruelty and rage. Choose your side.

I have confirmed the gist of this report out of federal court in Minnesota today from a source familiar. If you have more information about the District of Minnesota—either the court or the U.S. Attorney's Office—and how they are handling all of this, please reach out. I am at crg.32 on Signal.

Abolish ICE, abolish DHS, redistribute the other agencies, prosecute actual criminals, such as people who commit execution-style murders of Americans in broad daylight.

I genuinely think boycotting the World Cup is some of the strongest leverage the Europeans have.

The US is making plans to try to intercept a fleeing oil tanker that Russia has claimed jurisdiction over, according to four people familiar with the matter, setting up a possible confrontation between Washington and the Kremlin over the vessel’s fate.

Wow.

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts. Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

So fmr Honduran President Hernandez voluntarily surrendered, and was duly extradited, tried and convicted for drug trafficking, and Trump pardoned him 6w ago. And this morning, Trump illegally attacks Venezuela and abducts its president and his wife purportedly to try them for drug trafficking.

This is so true. Bluesky isn’t/wasn’t much better- but Twitter used to be a place you could get true real-time info. I remember during Boston marathon shooting being glued to it. Now between AI & assholes, you have to dig thru so much shit to find truth.

The older, pre-Musk Twitter, while not perfect, would have been a useful place to be during and after the Brown shooting. Now, it's place sowing confusion, conspiracy, misinformation, and harm. It has been wrung of its value and decency.

Trump’s Rob Reiner comment was low even for him, but it’s the week of Epstein Files release and Affordable Care deadline, so look for more stupid Trump stuff to distract you from that. Epstein. Health care. Eye on the ball.

Congresswoman Ilhan Omar's son was pulled over by ICE and forced to prove he is an American. Two options: 1) ICE deliberately targeted him. 2) ICE is stopping all non-White people without any probable cause and forcing them to prove they are citizens. Hard to say which option is scarier.

Trump on pardoning the former president of Honduras: "That was a Biden horrible witch hunt. A lot of people in Honduras asked me to do that & I did it. I feel very good about it. If you have some drug dealers in your country and you're the president, you don't necessarily put the president in jail"

Woah.
