Happy Fathers Day to all the fathers and father figures.

*Except the ones who voted for their daughters to have fewer rights than their mother.

[Spiro’s Ghost @AntiToxicPeople]

The completely & utterly demented, mentally ill President of the United States just posted this truly brainless imbecilic nonsense. Elected Republicans are shameful to not remove this dangerously deranged fool from office immediately. There is something truly wrong with him.

[Reverend Raphael Warnock @ReverendWarnock]

How do you hold hands with your fellow legislators in prayer and then vote to cut a trillion dollars out of medicaid?

Just a thought…
Buy 2 bags of pet food for a shelter instead of fireworks. Make a difference, not a noise

[Sherrod Brown @SherrodBrown]

Across the state, I’m hearing the same thing: life is way too expensive.

I’m in this fight to give working families a voice in Washington and take on the billionaires and corporations that are screwing you over.

[James Talarico @jamestalarico]

When we win, the first bill I’m filing is a comprehensive anti-corruption package:

Overturn Citizens United
Ban corporate PACs and super PACs
Ban members of Congress from trading stocks

Once we defeat the most corrupt politician in America, we can defeat this corrupt system.

I’m in this fight for families like Amy’s. Ohioans are sick of having to fight insurance companies just to get the care they need.

My opponent sides with the insurance companies every chance he gets. I’ll fight for hardworking Ohioans.

THE INSANELY RIGGED ECONOMY

Yesterday, while tens of millions of families were struggling to pay for rent, food, healthcare, childcare and gas, seven of Trump's oligarchic friends became $210 billion richer. Not last week. Not over the past decade. In less than 24 hours, these 7 men, the wealthiest people on earth, became $210 billion richer.

Incredibly, since Trump was elected on November 5, 2024, these 7 men, all Big Tech Oligarchs, have become more than $1.5 trillion richer and are now collectively worth over $2.8 trillion. Meanwhile, we have the highest rate of childhood poverty of any other wealthy nation, young adults have a lower standard of living than their parents and over 20% of our seniors are trying to survive on an annual income of $15,000 a year or less.

Yes. We are living in an oligarchy.

A Good Day for Trump’s Friends:

Yesterday, Elon Musk, the richest man in the world, got $164.8 billion richer and is now worth $1.4 trillion. He’s worth $1.1 trillion more than on Election Day.

Yesterday, Larry Page, the second wealthiest man in the world, gained $7.61 billion in wealth and is now worth $314 billion. He’s worth $161 billion more than on Election Day.

Yesterday, Sergey Brin, the third richest man in the world, got $7.01 billion richer and is now worth $292 billion. He’s worth $148 billion more than on Election Day.

Yesterday, Jeff Bezos, the fourth richest man in the world, gained $6.96 billion in wealth and is now worth $267 billion. He’s worth $46 billion more than on Election Day.

Yesterday, Larry Ellison, the fifth wealthiest man in the world, gained $8.92 billion in wealth and is now worth $247 billion. He’s worth $63 billion more than on Election Day.

Yesterday, Michael Dell, the sixth richest man in the world, got $5.86 billion richer and is now worth $218 billion. He’s worth $101 billion more than on Election Day.

Yesterday, Mark Zuckerberg, the seventh richest man in the world, gained $9.16 billion in wealth and is now worth $211 billion. He’s worth $8 billion more than on Election Day.

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. said it best: “Call it democracy or call it democratic socialism, but there must be a better distribution of wealth within this country for all of God’s children.”

[Governor JB Pritzker @GovPritzker]

This attack on Gov. Newsom represents a dangerous escalation by Trump.

The President frequently calls for the jailing of his perceived enemies, but his playbook of weaponizing the Department of Justice as a personal attack dog is another level of corruption.

This must stop.

[Headquarters @HQNewsNow]

Jane Fonda: It's not about Democrat or Republican or left or right. It's about right or wrong, and it is wrong for people to be attacked and called terrorists for exercising their rights and freedoms. It's time for Americans all across the country, all across the political spectrum who care about these freedoms to stand up creatively, non-violently, to defend these rights while we can. We must do this now. Because if we don't, we're not going to have any rights to defend.

[Gavin Newsom @GavinNewsom]

The White House was built to serve the American people.

Tonight it was used to promote a company the President owns stock in, sell subscriptions, promote corporate sponsors, push Trump crypto, and enrich the President and his family.

The founders warned us about kings enriching themselves from public office.

They did not fight a revolution for this.

[Team Talarico @TeamTalaricoHQ]

.@JamesTalarico on the personal attacks against him:

“It's nothing compared to what Texans are going through every day. Texans are struggling right now to afford the basic things: groceries and gas, insurance, childcare, prescription drugs, higher education, rent and mortgage.

The fact that politicians, including our sitting United States Senator Ted Cruz, are throwing embarrassing cheap nicknames at their political opponents instead of focusing on improving Texans' lives is everything that's wrong with our politics. It's why people are so fed up with this broken system because it doesn't serve them or improve their lives.

It looks a lot more like professional wrestling…. Those nicknames don't lower the cost of groceries, gas, utilities, or insurance. I'm going to keep talking about the things that Texans actually care about, and I'm going to keep proposing solutions to make their lives better.”

[Team Talarico @TeamTalaricoHQ]

.@JamesTalarico: There's been a lot of talk in this race about what it means to be a real man.

Recently on the campaign trail I told the story of my adoptive dad, Mark Talarico. Every Saturday morning, he would mow our lawn, and then without anyone asking him to, he would go next door and mow our neighbor's lawn because she was a widow. My dad never talked about it — he just did it, because that's what a man does.

A man takes responsibility, upholds his commitments to his family and his neighbors, and does what's right, even when no one is watching.

Here's what real men don't do. They don't lie and cheat their way through life, sell their soul to the highest bidder, or steal from other people in order to enrich themselves. Real men serve others. Weak men serve themselves.

I welcome this debate about what it means to be a man, and I don't think Ken Paxton or Ted Cruz are in a position to tell anybody what a real man is.

LOCK HIM UP

[Headquarters @HQNewsNow]

Trump's attacks on Iran yesterday have destroyed a drinking-water facility near the Strait of Hormuz, leaving thousands without drinkable water.

Striking water facilities and other civilian infrastructure is a war crime.

[Tim @trouble_man90]

I remember during Biden, the press combed through hundreds of pages of White House visitor logs, found a guy that was a Parkinson’s specialist, then accused Biden of having Parkinson’s disease and hung it from the country.

Are they going to apply that same energy with these 22 mystery specialists??

BOMBSHELL: For the first time, we now know that Vice President Vance has been deeply involved in Epstein strategy and this White House cover-up.

He and top Admin officials have been using the situation room to meet. It’s time to talk to the VP.
