Ossoff: I never want to hear these two pretend they give a damn about working people again.
Because while hundreds of thousands of Georgians lose their health care, Mike Collins builds Trump a ballroom. They worked harder burying the Epstein files than they ever did lowering your grocery bill.

[David Axelrod @davidaxelrod]

How can you not smile?

[Tommy Vietor @TVietor08]

I want to roll this speech up and smoke it

[Dan Pfeiffer @danpfeiffer]

This is so good

[Elizabeth Warren @SenWarren]

Inflation just hit a 3-year high, nearly double what it was before Trump's tariffs.

Health care, food, gas, and housing—all up in May.

Americans deserve lower costs, but Trump is raising them.

[Acyn @Acyn]

AOC: Mike Johnson paints this as though it’s some partisan witch hunt. But if you don’t want to be prosecuted for crimes, don’t do crimes.

And he’s talking about running a protection racket. And we are already seeing that this Trump administration has run what some have called one of the largest pedophile protection programs in American history.

And so when Mike Johnson tells a group of wealthy donors, I'm the only thing standing between you, and a consequence that should rattle at the conscience of every American.

What he wants to do is create—or rather, not even create, because it’s already been created—but protect a class of impunity in America that says, “You can commit whatever crime, and so long as you pay a check to us, we will protect you.”

And that is a model of extortion in American politics. And you know what? That’s their pitch.

[Hillary Clinton @HillaryClinton]

Maybe Vance doesn't know this history because it's in one of the books his administration banned.

The difference between Watergate and now is that back then, Republicans actually did something about a law-breaking president. Today, they only roll over for their cult leader.

Massie: "I think it's ironic that we control the House, Senate, Supreme Court, and the White House, and we're yelling 'election fraud'? I mean, we won all the damn elections."

This article provides one of the best data-based explanations I've ever read of why carbon capture and removal will never work at the scales envisioned by the techno-optimists. Save it forever.

Here's a key figure:

This is a wild story, by @themadstone, about the deep corruption at the center of climate research at @Princeton.

TL/DR: BP helped write a research paper they funded, envisioning an essentially fictional future for fossil fuels in a decarbonized world.

Link in next tweet.

[FactPost @factpostnews]

Gov. Andy Beshear has launched universal pre-K in two rural Kentucky counties.

[Paul Niland @PaulNiland]

This is why he made up the bullshit story about her begging for a photo with him. Because a strong woman gave him what for. That's all it boils down to.

So he lied to make himself feel better and created a diplomatic incident.

Misogynistic deluded narcissist lying pig.

[Jaime Harrison @harrisonjaime]

And now we have sleeping beauty…

[Blue Georgia @BlueGeorgia]

Bill Maher: This week was the G7 meeting... You know who else was there? Sam Altman from OpenAI. Dario Amodei from anthropic. The dude from Google DeepMind. Alex Wong from Meta. The AI guys are now sitting at the table at the G7.

Ro Khanna: As we approach the 250th year anniversary of this country, we didn't fight a revolution to be ruled by tech billionaires.

[Anders Åslund @anders_aslund]

I simply don't understand how the US does not have any mechanisms to stop Trump's physical destruction of Washington, DC.
This country appears completley lawless.

“The election deniers, they tell a lie so absurd, and therefore so debasing to tell, that the act of telling it proves the teller's total and humiliating submission.

Another great line+speech from @ossoff.

Ossof, Talarico, Mamdani, AOC, Dems have some great young orators.

[Dr. Genevieve Guenther (she/they) 🪬 @DoctorVive]

Heat waves kill more people than any other form of extreme weather.

[Aaron Rupar @atrupar]

Ossoff: “The election deniers, they tell a lie so absurd, and therefore so debasing to tell, that the act of telling it proves the teller's total and humiliating submission.

And you may have seen that one of those election deniers now asks to represent Georgia in the Senate. [Mike Collins], who supports war and cutting your health care and openly associates himself with bigotry and antisemitism, who defends the violent mob that sacked the Capitol on the morning of January 6th, 2021…

To this day, this man makes excuses for those who carried out an attack to throw out your votes and install a defeated President.”

FOX: Are these socialist candidates something that can find success outside of New York, D.C., and Seattle?

Trent: It did in the ‘30s, ‘40s, and ‘50s. That is exactly what the New Deal was based on. That’s exactly what the TVA was based on. That’s what the interstate highway system was built with. That’s what NASA was built with.

It was built with a blend of government-owned and company-operated entities—sometimes government-owned, government-operated entities—and that’s how we built America.

[Susan Glasser @sbg1]

Trump is strikingly unpopular at both ends of the economic spectrum (via @wsj)
