The 2028 election may create "an historic opportunity for Democrats to establish a 'New New Deal,'" writes @davidrlurie.com. The challenge: building "a broad and resilient" coalition to lead us out of our political and economic crises. Yes please. No infighting. 🙂 www.publicnotice.co/p/democratic...

CNN is granted access inside an immigration court hearing where dozens of children facing deportation, some as young as three years old, appealed to stay in the United States. Many of them facing the judge without an attorney representing them.

It's appalling to hear Trump say that the U.S. "put out the fire" in Gaza and "facilitated a peace" after so many innocents were murdered with U.S. weapons – and are still being murdered.

Q: What do you say to people in Ireland who say the US is facilitating genocide in Gaza? TRUMP: When you say Gaza, we put out the fire. There's very little happening right now in Gaza. That's not the place that people are talking about now. We facilitated a peace of a kind.

Q: Did you see any footage of the protest against your visit in Dublin and what do you make of it? TRUMP: I don't know. You know, You remind me of somebody. A very cute Irish singer who passed away recently. You know who that is? Sinead! You look like Sinead O'Connor. That's a compliment.

I'm shocked that I can still be shocked by this man. Imagine reducing the incredibly talented amazing Sinead O'Connor to "a very cute Irish singer"😢😢😢😡😡😡

I'm imagining Sinead's reaction to being called "a very cute Irish singer" by President McRapeypants.

When Rodrigo Duterte was waging war against his own population in the Philippines, Pope Francis sent one of its most experienced diplomats to Manila. That diplomat was Archbishop Gabriele Caccia. Now Pope Leo XIV has chosen him to be the papal envoy to the United States.

Michelle Obama: The lies about your birthright, your faith, your patriotism, the outrage when you stated the biological fact that if you'd had a son that he too would be black, yet you were unflappable at every turn, always focused.

I’m not crying, you’re crying. Four presidents. Four First Ladies. All in Chicago today to open the Obama Presidential Center on the South Side. No drama. No grievances. Just leaders building something real for the people. And it opens on Juneteenth. That date was chosen on purpose👌

Michelle Obama: "That's where the truth of this country lies. Not in grabbing as much as we can get for ourselves. Or knocking folks down to prop ourselves up. But in the overwhelming goodness, the relentless striving, the quiet dignity, that is inside all of us."

Michelle Obama: You were doing the people's work, rescuing our economy, expanding health care, ending a war, ordering the bin laden raid, saving an auto industry, winning a peace prize.

Michelle Obama: "No one has the right to sit in judgment of who is American enough. And that's why, folks, we simply don't have the luxury or time to be cynical or complacent."

Michelle Obama just delivered one of the best speeches I’ve ever heard. She upheld her husband’s legacy, defended the dignity of all people, appealed to our better angels, & reminded us of the America that we could be. What a contrast to the depravity occupying the White House.

NEW: I've filed a claim with Todd Blanche for compensation from the $1.776B slush fund for the unlawful investigation by the government into my podcast in August 2019. I'm seeking $8.647 million in compensation for weaponized lawfare - the equivalent of punitive damages, lost pay and retirement.

One man put us in this deadly quagmire. One man is wrecking our economy. One man’s immigration agents have terrorized our communities. One man has ridden roughshod over our system of government. We said "No Kings" 250 years ago. Congress must say "No Kings" today. If not, they must be replaced.

BREAKING: Pope Leo XIV declares the Iran War is “unjust” and “is not resolving anything.” After suggesting Trump is committing war crimes by targeting civilian infrastructure, he called on Americans to contact Congress to help end the war.
