⚡️ Macron: Security guarantees for Ukraine mean security for the entire European continent.

Trump: "This one chart really says it better than anything, if you look at this. This is great. But this chart is pretty amazing. Right here. All new numbers."

Rough batch of headlines today. 😞 @bloomberg.com @cnbc.com @wsj.com

Very honorable.

New WSJ poll: The Democratic Party is 30 points under water with registered voters, considerably worse than the GOP (-11). www.wsj.com/politics/ele...

And yet the same poll has the 2026 generic congressional ballot at D+3, so that high disapproval is coming entirely from partisan Democrats themselves. If you've ever wanted to challenge an ineffective Democratic incumbent, you're not going to have a better opportunity than next year.

🚨BREAKING: The last journalists working for AFP in Gaza have said they can no longer work for the news agency. They are out of energy and they are starving to death. I have never seen a statement from a news organisation like it. 🧵

Has Trump sued the NYT for this yet?

Epstein’s "little black book" totals 97 pages, containing 1,571 names and roughly 5,000 phone numbers. At least 38 names are mysteriously circled, including Donald Trump's. “I got my hands on a copy,” writes Leland Nally. “I made close to 2,000 phone calls.” www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

An Accuser’s Story Suggests How Trump Might Appear in the Epstein Files www.nytimes.com/2025/07/20/u...

5 things Trump did this week: 1. Claimed exposing the Epstein pedo ring was not a priority 2. Said he “lost faith” in his supporters 3. Called his supporters “stupid people” 4. Denied drawing a naked woman for Jeffrey Epstein 5. Went golfing again

REPORTER: What do you do next time to make sure people are alerted if they're dead asleep? Maybe a siren system? TRUMP: Yeah. You'll probably have to do that. You'll probably come up with something very unique, because there's no system right now. A thing like this has never happened.

Whoa. Another Trump administration cover-up exposed.

A whole lot of organizations and politicians do not understand just how minimal their 'reach' truly is on X. It's not what Twitter was. You are shouting at bots and right-wingers. Nobody else sees what you do there. Daily users are down, time on site is down, and the algorithm is hostile to you.

I still fail to understand how this is our life in 2025

When your neighbor on the left is being dragged away by masked men and your neighbor on the right can't get an X-ray for their child, be sure to quickly explain that "both parties are the same" and whatnot.

Congrats to Lisa Murkowski on voting for a bill that she herself admitted was not ready in hopes that the House would change it. Now it’ll become law. She had the power to stop it, and instead chose to become complicit. That’s her legacy.

TIL - one reason for the KKK’s explosive growth in the early 1920s was that it was a multi-level marketing organization

In a country characterized by the rule of law, some regulation of immigration is a legitimate function of government. In a lawless, expressly bigoted, and expressly corrupt regime, it is not. Download IceBlock and defy this administration.

Some potentially very good news in here. gothamist.com/news/early-v...

Holy shit. India’s Foreign Secretary just shut down Trump’s claim he brokered peace between India and Pakistan. Modi told him: “There was never any discussion… about a trade deal or U.S. mediation… India has neither accepted mediation, nor does it do so—and never will.”

Make America Healthy Again.

Trump is losing in court, every day, and judges are literally risking their lives to put a stop to these policies. But the law is boring and protesting is exciting.

Wild how the Fed chair saying that *entire regions of the United States* won’t be able to get a mortgage in the next decade barely registered as a news event

Peace be upon us.

There are no distractions. It's all bad. Systematically stripping trans people of their rights, guys in balaclavas shoving any brown person with a tattoo into a ummarked vans, ending healthcare for millions. It's all in service of fascism and technofeudalism. It's all one thing. That's the point.

The alleged Minnesota assassin was known as a ‘deeply religious’ Christian man. That should be an alarm bell for all of us. @monacharen.bsky.social on the rising threat of homegrown extremism: www.thebulwark.com/p/the-growin...

I was literally taught my whole life that if someone in plain clothes and a mask tries to detain you and refuses to identify themselves, you call 911 and you’re absolutely within your rights to not comply for safety reasons. What’s happening is kidnapping. Full stop.

I think a lot of journalists and politicians thought that coming to Bluesky would get them praised and worshipped like it was 2017 Twitter and the fact that didn’t instantly happen has absolutely broken their brains

NEW: ProPublica has sued the FDA, accusing the agency of withholding information about the safety and availability of generic drugs critical to millions of Americans.

Hot take: the way Tucker grills Ted Cruz in those clips should be the rule not the exception. If more of the media did this we would be in a much better place* (* = It should go without saying that we are not and never will be Tucker fans)

HIRONO: If ordered by the president to shoot peaceful protesters in the legs, would you carry it out? HEGSETH: Of course I reject the premise of your question HIRONO: Considering that the president in his first term actually ordered such a thing, it's not a premise you can reject

cannot tell you how long I’ve waited for this

Schrödinger's felony.

In a lengthy exchange, with ICE Deputy Field Director Bill Joyce, Reps Nadler and Goldman are denied the ability to visit the 10th floor. Joyce says it's not a detention facility it's just a place ppl are housed for several days w/out beds.

WATCH: “You’re a U.S. senator and you don’t know anything about the country you want to topple.” Tucker Carlson embarrasses @sentedcruz as he pushes for war with Iran

I was too young to be ware of the Iraq invasion debate but was it this degree of stupid? It can't have been this stupid.

New in PN: Judge rules that anti-woke is just racism “'I’ve never seen a record where racial discrimination was so palpable,' Judge Young fumed. 'I’ve sat on this bench now for 40 years. I’ve never seen government racial discrimination like this.' *More of this, please*"
