Nine months after Trump began murdering suspected drug smugglers, The New York Times notes that "Blowing Up Boats Hasn't Slowed Cocaine Traffic to U.S." The least surprising headline ever? reason.com/2026/05/29/the…

REP. JIM HIMES: Lavrov's threats against diplomats in Kyiv are three things. Number one, it's a sign of utter desperation. Russians are losing ground on a net basis in Ukraine. And the price they are paying is staggering. Russian people need to look at what they are being asked to provide in the form of their own blood, their own sons, for this mad dictator, to lose ground in Ukraine. I think in the next couple of months, you will see Ukrainian military continue to recapture territory at great expense to Russia. So, it's a sign of desperation. Number two, it's an admission of the mindset of a person who is very comfortable committing war crimes. Threatening civilian population and diplomats in that civilian population is perfectly indicative of the comfort that Russians have with committing war crimes: targeting hospitals, targeting maternity hospitals, targeting NGOs who are trying to deliver aid into communities along the front lines. And third, I'm going to go back to Washington with Senator Blumenthal to make sure that Lavrov's threats result in additional resources coming to the people of Ukraine, because all that Lavrov represents is everything that free people need to be fighting against.

After a privately funded border wall in South Texas faced legal issues and claims of shoddy construction, President Donald Trump denounced the project. His administration has handed the company behind it billions to build more of the wall. propublica.org/article/trump-…

Re-posting this so we can have people use the correct terminology - #Bundibugyo is NOT a strain of #Ebola but is a species Please see below and kindly use the correct terminology.

Next week I'm joining local organizers at a rally to stop three data centers from being built 30 minutes from my home. There are already hundreds in Ohio. No more. I will fight for a full moratorium when I get to Congress.

President Trump admitted that he doesn’t care about Americans’ financial situations.  Well, I do. That’s why I fight every day to make our state more affordable for New Yorkers.

#Belarus Lukashenka told Macron that Giorgia Meloni "is a woman" and therefore can't negotiate with Moscow. Rich coming from a dictator who allowed Belarusian territory to attack #Ukraine, depends on the Kremlin for survival and jails anyone who challenges his rule.

For years, I’ve studied what actually protects freedom and democracy. At its core? Freedom of the press. The executive’s pattern of censorship and targeting journalists is dangerous. Every American, regardless of party, needs to wake up and speak out against this erosion. Remember: Congress has more power than the Executive. And the people control both. 🇺🇸 @60Minutes

Including, but maybe especially this: it’s a pattern. Harborne’s donations to Boris Johnson. And Boris Johnson’s pro-crypto statements prefigure those to Farage. 3/

And today the Guardian picked it & linked back to the FT. But there is way more important detail in @CharlieNotOld & @LuciaOC_’s reporting that neither newspaper, or any other, has picked up yet 2/

Last week: @thenerve_news. This week: the FT View. We forensically tracked cryptobillionaire Christopher Harborne’s donations against Nigel Farage’s crypto policy statements. Yesterday the FT pulled out this same point in its main editorial & notes the similarity to Trump. 1/

Rep. Steve Cohen just made American history. He is the first person in 235 years to file articles of impeachment against a sitting Chief Justice of the United States. Read why John Roberts is finally facing accountability: 👇 dworkinsubstack.com/p/great-news-t…

"Why have tomato prices surged nearly 40% in a year?" cbsnews.com/news/inflation… Bad weather, yes, but also a manmade disaster:

@WhiteHouse Imagine risking your medical license on this BS. PS. Nobody shakes hands with their left hand, so there’s that.

@WhiteHouse Tell us more about how that orange blob weighs 238lbs 🤭

@WhiteHouse Excellent health my ass.

@WhiteHouse The craziest part about this is that Donald Trump is a pedophile

Rep Chellie Pingree (D-ME) on ruling to strip Trump name from Kennedy Center: “A federal judge made clear what we have been saying from the start: (Trump) had no legal authority to do it. The Kennedy Center belongs to the American people. Now and always.”

Everyone deserves access to affordable, high-quality health care. I secured $750,000 for Wood River Health to expand its facility and serve more patients. I will keep fighting to protect health care access and lower costs for Rhode Islanders.
