Today is the 251st anniversary of Paul Revere's midnight ride to warn the Minutemen of approaching British troops.
I want to take a moment to share an excerpt from the Declaration of Independence's grievances against King George III.
Remind you of anyone?
The outrage was never about standards, it was about who.
🔥SEN. @ossoff.senate.gov : “Ivanka’s husband Jared Kushner’s on the Saudi payroll for $2 BILLION— as he leads 🇺🇸 diplomacy + asks sheikhs for billions more… Never have we seen so little effort to hide so much corruption. The Mar-a-Lago mafia taking corruption to spectacular new heights.”
They’ve taken a leaf out of their lord & masters book, they lie as easily as the rest of us breathe.
Facts, according to Pete 😳😳😳😡
Will voters EVER understand the big lie about "scary democratic (small D) socialist policies?!" Bernie has told us for decades, and Mamdani is showing us now. We can instantly fund a WAR but have TO DEBATE for decades about healthcare for all - GEEZUS!
They've LIED TO US FOR PROFIT for decades.
🚨BREAKING: Iran has announced that it is once again closing the Strait of Hormuz. The Iranian military says the US must lift its blockade of Iranian ports before the Strait is opened again.
The FBI guy is on a paranoid bender and won’t leave his room.
The War guy quotes bible passages from Pulp Fiction.
The Health guy collects raccoon dicks.
It’s an Idiocracy on steroids.
"Trump had come in promising that “for the Kennedy Center, THE BEST IS YET TO COME!” On the inside, my colleagues and I instead saw cronyism, incompetence, and a series of bizarre moves that would lead to the Kennedy Center going dark."

Is the world really going to have to suffer WW3 because the USA can’t impeach a president?
"These days, I’m feeling more aligned with Catholicism than I have since my first communion. I’m not alone in that," writes @sulliview.bsky.social.
Congrats on “opening” a strait that was open six weeks ago, and all it cost was at least 13 dead service members, thousands of dead Iranian civilians, tens of billions in taxpayer dollars, our loss in global standing, and the Iranian regime’s increase in power. Phenomenal work.
American soldiers who perished in the Iran war would still be alive today if Kamala was President.
“If you criticise Palantir’s platform one more time, you are going to lose your job.”
Solidarity to all NHS workers opposing this toxic corporation. Shame on those bullying them. But they won’t stop us. We’re going to ditch Palantir.

If you cannot tell, you should consult your physician.
They’re working for Israel & Russia.
Trump’s former Whitehouse lawyer….
“I don’t think anyone outside the United States thinks Trump is sane”
ABSOFUCKINGLUTELY 💯% True !
I’m sure we can add to this list….
A disgusting travesty 🤬
Cardinal Cupich: "We're dehumanizing the victims of war by turning the suffering of people & killing of children & our own soldiers into entertainment. To splice together movie cuts w/ actual bombings & targeting of people for purposes of entertainment is sickening. This is not who we are."
Over 1,000 major names in Hollywood signed an open letter opposing the Warner Bros/Paramount merger.
This includes Denis Villeneuve, J.J. Abrams, Bryan Cranston, Mark Ruffalo, Joaquin Phoenix, Damon Lindelof, Noah Wyle, Glenn Close, Jane Fonda, David Fincher, Ted Danson & more
On the train back home from Warsaw right now, and two Ukrainian women across the carriage from me are absolutely delighted about the Hungarian election result. One is in tears and the other is laughing. This is what it means to get rid of the cynical, kleptocratic prick.
Victor Orbán’s removal sends a timely signal.
Corrupt kleptocratic Christian nationalism was on the ballot in Hungary today — just as it will be on the ballots that Americans will cast in November.
It was repudiated abroad — may it be repudiated here in November (and beyond).
