More than half of the publicly identified donors to President Trump’s White House ballroom project have won new or expanded federal contracts worth more than $50 billion, according to a report from a government watchdog group. https://t.co/wEAqxMA7AG

Bryce Mitchell on Trump's White House UFC fight:

Our government is desecrating its role in society by entertaining sports. Our government is to protect and serve the people. Our tax dollars and resources are funding this operation. The government is supposed to protect us, not entertain us.

I know it’s become pretty cliche and cringey to talk about at this point but if you’re under like 25 I cannot stress enough how one time Obama wore a tan suit and people spent a week arguing over whether or not it was demeaning to the Oval Office and they were serious about it.

Why does no coach ever suggest paying the coaches less?

@RobertMcCollist SCOTUS is, if nothing else, remarkably consistent if nothing else.

[Hasan Kwame Jeffries @ProfJeffries]

Sadly, this is true.

[Reverend Raphael Warnock @ReverendWarnock]

We must face the reality that the Supreme Court has been captured by partisan hacks and ideological extremists.

It seems there is an entirely different set of rules for Republicans and Democrats.

🚨 Arkansas State Trooper Michael Austin Kennedy resigned after his wife filed 30+ screenshots of his white supremacist text messages in their divorce case including calling areas “N*GGERLAND” bragging about detained Hispanics as “trophies,” and pushing to repeal the 19th Amendment.

The messages to his wife Alana were packed with racial slurs against Black and Hispanic people, rants blaming “illegal immigrants” and Black people for traffic and crime, and extreme views like banning Muslims from America. One message read: “You don’t f*king hate them enough. The s*t that clogged up [their son’s] toilet is worth more to me than any of them.”

Kennedy also sent selfies posing with detained Hispanic individuals while on duty, calling them his “trophy.”

Alana amended her custody filing seeking sole custody. She stated his beliefs would “poison the minds of the children” and that the kids feared him because of his hate and irrational thoughts.

Kennedy resigned from the Arkansas State Police on May 15 shortly after the messages surfaced. In court papers he acknowledged the language but claimed it was “outdated” and didn’t reflect his values today after therapy and church guidance. Arkansas State Police reviewed his traffic stops and citations and said there was no indication his views affected his job performance.

A man sworn to protect and serve all citizens was privately holding this level of hatred.

What screening or accountability should law enforcement agencies have so white supremacist views like these don’t stay hidden until they surface in divorce court?

This is the closest thing to a Dred Scott era decision I've seen from the SCOTUS in my lifetime.

Even 2 Trump appointees and a Clinton appointee unanimously found intentional racial discrimination in the 2023 Alabama map, yet the majority of SCOTUS by 6-3 moved the goalposts and dramatically narrowed protections Congress enacted through the Voting Rights Act, and reaffirmed over and over, since it was originally enacted.

If there's a fix, it has to come from Congress. That's why 2026 and 2028 matter so much. Vote accordingly!

🚨 The Most Shocking Part Of The Alabama Redistricting Case Isn't The Map.

It's What The Supreme Court Said About It.

According to critics of the ruling, the Court acknowledged that Black voters were being denied equal political representation under Alabama's congressional map.

Yet despite recognizing the problem, the Court ultimately allowed the map to remain in place.

That's why opponents see the decision as so consequential.

The debate is no longer over whether discrimination occurred.

It's over what happens when a court identifies it and the map survives anyway.

It's a fight over whether voting rights protections still have teeth.

This is truly one of the worst things the court has done — both in terms of legitimacy and in terms of the law — since I have been covering the court.

[Governor Newsom Press Office @GovPressOffice]

WAKE UP, AMERICA.

The Supreme Court majority just admitted it’s a PARTISAN operator willing to TORCH the rule of law to advance its ideological agenda.

In an unprecedented move with a brief UNSIGNED order, it: 1) IGNORED the central basis of the lower court’s decision, 2) DISREGARDED its own precedent (that it had assured just weeks ago remained good law), and 3) REWARDED Alabama's defiance of a federal court order.

All to help Republicans squeeze out one more seat in the midterms. And on Election Day for millions of Americans no less!

This is sick.

I stood at this pool, at both monuments and saw both reflections…
He’s a God damn idiot, as are the fools that support him. The “Reflection Pool” wasn’t designed by American architect Henry Bacon a hundred years ago to look like a swimming pool. It’s designed to have a darkened characteristics that has reflective qualities to reflect the monuments.
That way, the Washington Monument is reflective to you when at the Lincoln Memorial, and when at the Washington Monument, the Lincoln Memorial is reflective to you.
It’s designed to enhance the grandeur of monuments, create an illusion of reflection, and inclusion of expansive space of unity.
He’s a tacky vulgar person that vulgarizes everything he touches. America isn’t becoming great, it’s becoming vulgar.

@VivekRamaswamy has a documented pattern of inserting himself into conversations about Black people, Black history, and the realities of the Black experience in America. From attempting to lecture Black journalists about issues they live every day to repeatedly dismissing or reframing well-documented everyday concerns, he seems determined to position himself as an authority on experiences that are not his own.

In my view, this is not an attempt to foster understanding. It is a repeated political strategy that relies on distorting conversations about race and racism to appeal to audiences eager to minimize, dismiss, or deny those realities. It is race-baiting masquerading as insight, serving his need for white adjacency and political ambitions more than it contributes anything meaningful to anyone but himself.

Using Black people, Black communities, and Black experiences as political props for his personal, political or Napoleonic gain should not be tolerated by him or by anyone else who chooses opportunism over honest engagement.

[No Lie with Brian Tyler Cohen @NoLieWithBTC]

Scott Pelley issues new statement after being fired by CBS for opposing their pro-MAGA bias:

“New management has instructed me to inject falsehoods and bias into a politically sensitive story. I’ve been told to include assertions that are unverified. To date, in every case, I have managed to ignore these instructions or refuse them.

Recently, politicians have been invited to choose correspondents for interviews on the broadcast. Giving politicians control over 60 Minutes interviews is not how this is done.

Finally, incompetence and unprofessionalism in the new management have wreaked havoc. In a case involving one of my stories, the entire program came within 19 minutes of not getting on the air at all.”

Every time the shadow docket has touched a contested map, the outcome favors Republicans.

Texas gerrymander: allowed.

New York Democratic flip: blocked.

Louisiana: VRA gutted.

Virginia Democratic map: refused to save it.

Alabama: a Black district erased.

Same direction every time.
