Justice Alito justified his estimated $100k ride on a billionaire’s plane for a luxury fishing trip to Alaska, saying the seat was vacant. Turns out the seat was intended for an eight year-old Make-a-Wish Foundation who always wanted to catch a halibut.

Wow, that gives me chills. Suddenly all the all-American tropes in the song are defiant, not cliched.

📌Just heard John Mellencamp say, Jack, in "Jack and Diane" was written as a black dude. They were an interracial couple.
Dang.
📌Thing is, the music producers didn't like it, so it didn't come up. John was asked why.
He said, "Because this country is racist as hell."

A GoFundMe has been organized for the children who now will grow up without a mother.

Ocala, Florida police say it’s “not clear” if the tablet was thrown at the child or if the unidentified white woman just threw it and it happened to hit them. They say they are trying to determine if the shooting was justified under “Stand Your Ground”.
To be clear: she has not been arrested

BREAKING: The CEO of @Hertz wrote a letter to Puerto Rico‘s representative in Congress stating that Hertz has rewritten its policy to make it abundantly clear that Puerto Rico is a U.S. territory - not a foreign country - & because of that Puerto Rico driver’s licenses are not international IDs they are just as valid as any ID from any state in this union. This news follows the story I first reported last week, where a Puerto Rican man at the New Orleans international airport was denied a rental car because at least two Hertz workers said his license was international. On top of that, the man who recorded the incident, had the police called on him by a Hertz employee who said he can never rent from Hertz again because he recorded the incident. *She was wrong; he can rent from Hertz again*. The police officer who responded to the call was dismissive and rude and is now the subject of an internal investigation by his police department because the customer, Mr. Humberto Marchand, filed a complaint with the @KennerPolice. Following our report, Representative @Jenniffer wrote a letter to Hertz asking for a companywide educational campaign, and she got it.
Lastly: Puerto Ricans are United States citizens. Please share.

MassPort wants to go green? It starts by greening the jets. Compared to the jets, greening the hangars is a meaningless piffle. "Plan to expand hangar space for private jets at Hanscom sparks concerns about a surge in climate pollution" bostonglobe.com/2023/05/20/s… via @BostonGlobe

This, the choice to platform election disinformation, lies about January 6th, totally unchecked and reckless claims about abortion… they need to take ownership of what just happened.
This cannot be normalized. It’s dangerous.

There is simply no way CNN can feign ignorance about the fact that they set up a sexual assault victim to be targeted and attacked on national television a day after the verdict.
People were sounding the alarm about this exact scenario. They let it happen anyway without a plan.

I’ve seen people complain that the tl is dominated by the writer’s strike and I need to add that this is because a majority of the funny twitter accounts with large followings belong to writers…and a lot of those writers also write jokes outside of twitter…for tv…for a living

The court is a political entity currently engaged in overreach and abuse of power.
In our system of checks and balances, SCOTUS’s reckless behavior warrants a check from the leg + executive branches. This is not unprecedented, it’s how our system is designed to avert tyranny

BREAKING: Justice Clarence Thomas' corruption scandal EXPLODES as it's revealed that the Republican billionaire who has been bribing him for decades with luxury trips and private plane travel also purchased properties from Thomas and his relatives — meaning that cash flowed directly from him to Thomas and the deeply crooked Thomas never never it. RT IF YOU WANT CLARENCE THOMAS IMPEACHED IMMEDIATELY!

Republicans who are pretending that the Tennessee Capitol protest for Gun Control is similar to January 6th are either incredibly ignorant or they are purposefully misleading Americans. Here's why:
- Stopping the Certification of an Election is a CRIME
- Breaking windows to enter a Federal Building is a CRIME
- Busting through police barriers is a CRIME
- Injuring people and police are CRIMES
- Threatening Politicians is a CRIME
- Defacing US Gov Property is a CRIME
NONE of that happened in Tennessee!
