WHAT THE ACTUAL F*CK
Among other things, there has been a total collapse of any pretense that government agencies aren't overtly partisan tools distinguishable from campaign accounts.

I know, I know, but: The president of the US saying, literally, "we're going in" in reference to sending the military to an American city for no reason beyond terrorizing the local population should be the most immediately impeachable shit imaginable
Ports across the country were planning to become economic hubs for the growing offshore wind industry. The Trump administration is cancelling grants to build the infrastructure for it.
I hope people realize how absolutely fucked this situation is.
This isnβt normal. People are resigning all over the place because the government is mishandling our data, ruining our public health services, and generally making Americans less safe.
Transcript: Trump Lets Slip Dark Truth About His Plot to Rig Midterms newrepublic.com/article/1992... via @newrepublic.com
Sometimes the sheer idiocy of this moment overwhelms me. The idea that our convicted felon POTUS who incited an attack on DC police then pardoned the attackers & who's the most corrupt official in US history is going on an "anti-crime" ride-along in a city w/falling crime rate is...(brain explodes)
Trump "believes that all layers of government level up to him and that he is ultimately in charge." Whatever that political philosophy is, it isn't American.

Trump has been spreading lies about mail-in voting for more than a decade.
Those lies were central to his effort to overturn the 2020 election.
His lies about mail-in voting serve no purpose other than to undermine our elections.

A screenshot of a tweet from the House Freedom Caucus, @freedomcaucus, posted on June 29, 2025, at 2:08 PM. The tweet has 196.9K views. The tweet text reads: "HERE ARE THE FACTS: β The House bill added $72 billion to the deficit with interest costs included. β The Senate version adds $1.3 trillion to the deficit. That's 1,705% more. β Even without interest costs, it is $651 billion over our agreed budget framework." Below the text is a bar chart titled "Deficits in One Big Beautiful Bill." The y-axis is labeled "Change in Deficits (Millions)" ranging from -800,000 to 600,000. The x-axis shows years from 2025 to 2034. The chart includes stacked bars for each year, representing "Defense and Border Committees," "Other Savings Committees," "Finance Committee," "Interest Effects, HBC Dynamic With Policy Changes," and "HBC Estimated Dynamic Effect." There are two lines plotted on the chart: a purple line labeled "Total Change in Deficits, with Interest and HBC Dynamic" which shows a peak around 2027-2028 and then declines, and a red line labeled "As proposed by the Senate. Official Baseline. HBC Dynamic." which generally trends upwards. A smaller text box to the right of the chart says "Increases Deficits $1.3 Trillion vs. Current Law."
Here ya go.
We were just suspended without warning from threads and Instagram. We have no idea why.
If any of yβall are on those apps and want to let them know to fix that we would be appreciative.
How now, how now, what say the citizens?
Yes, I agree β it would be terrible. Please do NOT share this information!!!

CBS, NBC, ABC, CNN, Fox all showing the same America250 video feed.
Glad to see AP has their own feed via YouTube, which also features the No Kings protests.
But it looks like all the live broadcast feeds are using the America250 feed, which is unnerving to me.
