"Dozens of communities have been devastated by windstorms, tornadoes, flooding & wildfires since Jan 20, killing nearly 100 Americans.

Trump🚨hasn't visited a single one.

He has, however, managed 40 days of golf."

We must amplify his lack of empathy for Americans' security, safety, health, wellbeing... He's a soulless, wicked traitor.

#Louvre shuts down in a staff strike, sounding the alarm on #overtourism

https://apnews.com/article/louvre-museum-paris-closed-lines-delay-2bbf9be4f49de739fd14dd4d908e4d72

The Louvre, the world’s most-visited museum and a global symbol of art, beauty and endurance, has withstood war, terror, and pandemic — but on Monday, it was brought to a halt by its own staff, who say the institution is crumbling under the weight of mass tourism.

I'm sure the DOJ is going to get right on this...

NYT headline:

"Watchdog Finds Trump Administration Broke Law by Withholding Library Funds

It is the second time the nonpartisan Government Accountability Office has found the administration illegally impounded funds."

😲 #wtf? 😤

"Language requiring healthcare professionals to care for veterans regardless of their politics and marital status has been explicitly eliminated.

Doctors and other medical staff can also be barred from working at VA hospitals based on their marital status, political party affiliation or union activity,"

BREAKING: Federal agents in plain clothes and unmarked cars tried to snatch 1st graders from LA elementary schools—told staff they had “parental consent.”

They lied. When pressed, they HID THEIR IDS. DHS admits they sent them. This wasn’t a welfare check. It was a test run for a police state.

Even Ivanka didn’t show up to Trump’s weak party. Happy Father’s Day!

Indivisible tried to cancel. They sent out a cancellation notice. Their Marshalls were at the protests and were instructed to redirect people home. But the momentum was too strong. The marshals stayed & we protested. People there knew the folks who were shot & their families. A priest in full regalia came out & gave a sidewalk sermon. Our numbers were lower. Many people did stay home. But tens of thousands of us protested together. Even some trump voters came out.

If you want to keep up with what’s going on with elections and election law, I’d suggest Democracy Docket and Marc Elias over some random unsourced YouTube or Substack or some social media rumor.

It’s too bad he got driven off here but you can still read and subscribe to it.

If there’s something going on with election law or voter suppression, he’ll have it.

I mean, just for clarification, I was thrown out of the Canadian Forces in an anti-queer purge 39 years ago. I have not drilled in all that time.

But I just checked. I can still do all the basic manoeuvres, and some of the more complex ones, right off the bat. Give me two minutes with an instructor, I'd have it all back. I remember the full procedure for dressing the line (a complex move where you make the line both straight and evenly spaced).

This is not something you just...forget. It's not something you have to focus on doing. It becomes automatic. That they're not doing it, while walking in formation, is a deliberate choice.

Masks are under serious threat at being banned widely due to politicization. This would be a public health disaster. If you are only wearing a mask at protests, please consider also wearing them elsewhere. The more people mask, the more we normalize masks and protect them against bans.
