Trump's corrupt DOJ (thanks to George Santos' former attorney) is making fake investigations of Gavin Newsom. https://www.ms.now/news/gov-gavin-newsom-says-justice-department-is-investigating-him-and-his-wife
Newsom is filing FOIA requests to get to the bottom of this corruption. https://www.gov.ca.gov/2026/06/15/governor-newsom-demands-records-from-trumps-doj-about-politically-motivated-investigation/

The Last Rose of Summer is a true story about corruption in #cancer research. I discovered a cheap, plant-derived drug that could replace some much more toxic (but more lucrative) therapies. #BigPharma got involved and suppressed the research. Eventually I had to publish the story in thinly veiled fiction and survive a bunch of murder attempts. "Mary Austin" is a pseudonym, as my publisher forced me to use one. So... hi, I'm "Mary." 🤷♀️

Bill Gates says Trump's buddy Epstein tried to blackmail him. What else is going on that Trump and the GOP are covering up? https://www.nytimes.com/2026/06/10/business/bill-gates-epstein-testimony.html

On Saturday, all family visits at ICE's Delaney Hall detention center were cancelled. Senator Andy Kim made it inside and found more questions than answers.
“They told me that if I were to speak to any detainees, the oversight tour would immediately be cut off and stopped. This is impeding my ability to lawfully do the oversight that I’m legally allowed to do, and I told them I thought this was a deep breach of my responsibilities and what the American people are demanding.”
What he was able to see was disturbing.

The Atlantic | The Republican Senate Candidate Who Could Lose Texas by Elaine Godfrey
AI generated summary, Read the full article for complete information.
In Texas’s Republican Senate primary runoff, former President Donald Trump finally endorsed Attorney General Ken Paxton over longtime Senator John Cornyn, a move that electrified his base despite Paxton’s long trail of legal and ethical scandals—including indictments, impeachment, accusations of personal misconduct, and numerous lawsuits against Democratic administrations. While Trump’s backing is seen as a guarantee of a primary win for Paxton, many Republicans warn that his controversial history could make the general election far more competitive, potentially opening the door for Democrat James Talarico and ending the state’s 40‑year streak of Republican Senate victories; Cornyn, by contrast, is viewed as a more electable, moderate choice, but Trump’s endorsement underscores the deepening split within the party between establishment figures and the MAGA‑driven grassroots that now dominate Texas politics.

you're being aspirational, and correct, but you're not announcing *how* to achieve that
it's like going "arrest #Trump!"
ok
and?
how?
to get #rankedChoiceVoting, which is creeping in in the #USA, and would allow for stable viable 3rd parties... how?
we have to elect #Democrats who support that (some do, some don't: vote in the #primaries people!)
the #GOP has taken a blanket stand against #RCV nationally, so this is the only way forward

Donald Tantrump has spent around 2,000,000,000 taxpayer dollars buying back U.S. offshore wind leases and directing 'investment' (effectively subsidies) to #FossilFuels instead.
Because delivery of fossil fuels through the Hormuz Strait is definitely reliable and in no way intermittent...

BREAKING
Erin Burnett/CNN: word is that an arrest warrant has been issued for James Comey.
Un-effing real. What a travesty of justice. Esp, as Erin Burnett points out, during the Biden administration, "8646" was a #GOP thing, even appearing on tshirts & hats still for sale on Amazon.
Y'all gonna arrest & prosecute those folks for calling for Biden's assassination?
Still waiting...

is no compelling argument, legal or otherwise.
English is an imprecise language: the same word can have diff meanings.
Like "killing" a bill - that doesn't mean killing the ppl who proposed or supported it. Or is that what you actually mean, Speaker Mike Johnson?
And this archaic reference to the origin of the term "86" as meaning "8 miles out & 6 feet deep" is not, as the #GOP spokeswoman who dredged it up, common knowledge. Never heard it myself before.
Plus that's urban myth, not its
