Joan's murderer may well have joined ICE to achieve his life's goal: kill a brown person consequence-free. Still, he had to see the girl in the backseat. Age 3. Bluey pajamas. He could have waited till the next traffic stop to fulfill his dream. Instead, he opened fire. Bloodthirsty monsters.

Iran was listening to Trump's tantrum. www.cnn.com/2026/07/14/p...

NYT puts the ICE killing tally at: 6 murders 16 more attempted murders Zero trials or convictions. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/14/u...

Weekly Hormuz traffic was about 900 ships before the war. Kalshi sees an average in the 60s for 2026. Smart money says the new forever war is just getting started.

The crime scene. As Maddow points out, it looks like they're taking this investigation VERY seriously.

Wow. @pressherald.com normalizes ICE's killing spree by dredging up cases from 50+ years ago. We cannot normalize state-sanctioned murder. Once we relinquish our right to life, there's not much left.

Ornstein seems to claim a precedent for the Senate overruling the parliamentarian. Anyone know what that precedent is? Passing the SAVE act with a simple majority would seem entirely unprecedented, to my knowledge. I don't think they do it. As he says, it opens the floodgates to all kinds of crazy

Yes, but like he said earlier, it's not just messaging. Functionally eliminating the filibuster (by sidelining the parliamentarian) would still allow a future Dem trifecta to easily dismantle everything Republicans have done.

Great discussion! But "end the filibuster" vs. "overrule the parliamentarian" seems like a distinction without a difference, no? If the R Senate establishes the precedent that the majority party can overrule the parliamentarian to pass any legislation, the filibuster is effectively dead.

We should all have universal health care, child care, college, housing, food, says the Trump voter. 👍 But they blame the immigrants instead of the billionaires. Because the billionaires spend just a few million to indoctrinate them into their cult. Wake up MAGA.

In particular, Crider convincingly argues that a wealth tax is small-L liberal: "Liberals today have every reason to heed the warnings of the ancients and early liberals alike: concentrated wealth is concentrated power, and power corrupts..." Excellent:

Donald Trump has been a loser and a failure his whole damn life. But losing a war, then failing at the surrender? Priceless.

NYT top story: Most powerful military in the world, spending billions of dollars on war of choice with Iran, manages to take out $100k worth of Shahed drones in one day! 4 drones. Wow. Iran wins by depleting US resources and NYT cheers. 🤷

Trump has to plaster his own name all over the US because Luxembourg will never honor him like they did FDR.

Seen on a wall near Sacre-Couer in Paris. Noem is infamous around the world.

55+ oldsters get 5% off at all Kroger stores today. To sell groceries to seniors at a loss, Kroger has to charge everyone else more. Collectively, seniors are far more financially comfortable than younger Americans. I would rather support a business offering a "struggling 20-something" discount.

50% increase in the price of gas. Iran was more than a decade away from being able to attack the United States with a nuclear weapon. This economic war that we're losing was never about defending the US. Release the Trump-Epstein files so the insane distractions can end.

Kimmel was making a joke about Trump's age and health. Meanwhile this guy is gloating about the death of a political adversary. Pure evil. Fire this guy:

First-world problems. At least they're leaving the breasts intact. 😂

He did post a fake of Bruce Springsteen looking equally awful. So the defamation extends to white men as well. But the "low IQ" label does seem to get applied almost exclusively to Black people.

Modern brackets are a clip-in style like the one in this picture. But maybe that's an old style with a different locking mechanism?

"What would you say you ... do here?" Kalshi CEO Tarek Mansour struggles to explain Don Jr.'s role as strategic advisor. The corruption is everywhere, in plain sight. From @lastweektonight.com:

@latenightseth.bsky.social on the Trump family's latest grift...

This one's a banger. 🔥 🎵🎵 United States of Israel That's your resume Killin' children every day While you look away United States of Israel Netanyahu's pet Trump is a pedophile Don't you forget 🎵🎵

The Congo line is headed to Texas?! He makes less sense every day.

For stock market buffs... The Avis/Budget car rental company, ticker CAR, has had quite a ride. March 23: Low of $101.65 April 22 (yesterday): High of $847.70 April 23 (now): $213.45 Limited float, with a high proportion of that float shorted, led to an epic short squeeze.

I think you have to create your Google Voice account, receiving a new number, first. Then you can port your current number in, replacing the temporary number. In my account settings, I see the option to port in:

And she didn't even pay the $1 million.

House of Representatives seats for the new Canadian "states," per @brilliantmaps.bsky.social:

Hadn't thought of Vince Coleman in a while, but he apparently brought Jordan and Barkley back together.
