As part of the lawsuit against tonight’s UFC event at White House, plaintiffs argued it’s “deeply corrupt” and would stand to benefit Trump’s corporate allies, including Paramount Plus… which is charging people to watch the event

Heads up: The U.S. Postal Service has proposed a new rule that would allow it to refuse to deliver mail ballots in states that don't turn over voter rolls to the federal government. Democrats and voting-rights groups say the proposed rule is clear evidence that the Trump admin is trying to unconstitutionally intrude on state-run elections.

President Donald Trump endorsed Rep. Mike Collins (R-Ga.), a vehement election denier and Jan. 6 riot defender, in the Georgia Republican U.S. Senate runoff taking place on June 16. democracydocket.com/news-alerts/tr…

Trump’s lies are designed to wear you down. But here's what they don't understand — weariness is not surrender. We can be tired and still show up. “We’re not going to let him win by losing faith in our ability to fight back,” @marceelias says.

This is what it looks like in front of the Lincoln Memorial now after Trump’s Birthday Party. Who’s paying to clean this mess up because we know it’s not the UFC!

Boarded my flight at DCA National airport. Come to find out, the president of the United States has paused ALL flights because of the UFC fight at the White House. The air traffic controllers were not warned, nor were the airport staff or travelers.

When Marc is worried, I start blowing into paper bags

The world turned upside down! 🧡💙

Susan Collins has been dodging responsibility for her vote on the war in Iraq for twenty-four years.

This is for the folks insisting there was no taxpayer funding used to put on this event.

The Pentagon, despite a $1 trillion budget, is full of waste, fraud and abuse. It is, in fact, the only federal agency that can’t pass an independent financial audit. And now Trump wants $500 billion more in military spending. CONGRESS MUST JUST SAY NO.

NOW: Anti-Trump protesters set up "DUMP ON TRUMP" porta potties to wish President Trump a "CRAPPY BIRTHDAY" at Farragut Square, nearby the White House. The "S*** show supervisor" says the message here is to "end the s*** show" as the White House hosts a UFC match tonight.

A heartbroken elderly Albanian man says Jared Kushner has taken everything he spent a lifetime building, including his land, his home, and the future he hoped to leave behind for his children. He says he returned home one day only to find his property sealed off behind barbed wire, with men in black uniforms standing guard and refusing to let him step inside the house he once called his own. In a single moment, he says, the life he had worked for was gone. “It was the end of the world. The end of the world.” “I felt imprisoned.” “They took my freedom.” “They took my livelihood.” “They took my land.”

@RapidResponse47 Mother Nature does not like you

This event is about celebrating America’s unmatched greatness after 250 years — which apparently doesn’t sit well with the friendless loser who wrote this bullshit clickbait headline. Rain or shine, we’re celebrating our great country no matter what. GOD BLESS AMERICA! 🇺🇸

The White House is now beefing with the weather

Several women said they’d be willing to give up their right to vote if it meant creating a more conservative country at the Turning Point USA Women’s Leadership Summit recently held in San Antonio, Texas. democracydocket.com/news-alerts/at…

@HankoskyRob We used to run after the truck to get in the "fog".

@JamesHu27192912 @jimbealjr Dig. We also were playing outside when the mosquito truck came thru the neighborhood and sprayed us with DDT. Lol

Don’t argue with people over sixty. Just don’t. It’s not just an age; it’s a masterclass in survival. They grew up without Google, without DoorDash, without therapy podcasts, and without an "undo" button. If something broke, they grabbed duct tape, WD-40, a hammer, and a look of sheer determination that made even the broken appliance second-guess itself. As kids, they knew exactly what kind of mood their mom was in just by the sound of how hard she slammed the cast-iron skillet onto the stove. They were the original latchkey kids — walking home from middle school with a house key tied around their neck, with strict orders to heat up lunch and not burn the kitchen down. By the time they were ten, they could bike to the corner store, buy a gallon of milk for the neighbor, feed the family dog, and still have time to play freeze tag in the yard until dark. Their knees were a permanent canvas of scrapes, bruises, and rubbing alcohol. Their universal first-aid kit was just a quick wash under the garden hose and a Band-Aid. If a bone wasn't sticking out, you were fine. They drank water straight from that same hose, ate Wonder Bread covered in butter and sugar, shared a single glass bottle of Coke among five friends, and somehow didn't die from a lack of sanitization. This is the generation that knows how to rewind a cassette tape with a No. 2 pencil. They know the suspense of waiting all week for a movie to air on TV, because if you missed it, it was gone. They remember rotary phones, looking up a family in a massive paper phonebook, and the excitement of getting a color television. They survived party lines, typewriter ribbons, early brick cell phones, and flip phones — and today, they might accidentally send you a 7-minute voice memo where the first 6 minutes are just them breathing and asking, "Hello? Can you hear me?" And don't you dare laugh. Because without a GPS, these people could drive halfway across the country using nothing but an old paper map, a cooler full of sandwiches, and the gut feeling that "the exit should be coming up somewhere around here." They are the ultimate masters of household magic. They can stitch, tighten, glue, and fix just about anything. And somewhere in their pantry, they have a "bag of bags" that is literally older than half the gadgets you own. Leave people over sixty alone. They saw the world before the internet, and they navigated the world after it. And through it all, they didn't just get by — they thrived.

@Nursejanefuzwuz @JamesHu27192912 Not me. My Mom had a career. Dad was gone.

@JamesHu27192912 Well not to argue…we didn’t have keys to let ourselves in. We still had Mothers at home who asked us what we would like for an afternoon snack. We were the last ones to know what a single income family was about. It was very special.
