@cdarwin@c.imTrump's political operation has reportedly launched a new political action committee (PAC) to oust Rep. Thomas Massie, a Kentucky Republican.
On Sunday, Axios reported that Trump's team had created the Kentucky MAGA super PAC after Massie slammed Saturday's strike on Iran.
Senior Trump advisers Tony Fabrizio and Chris LaCivita were expected to run the organization.
According to the report, the PAC was in the works before Massie's criticism. LaCivita said the g…
@Sustainable2050@mastodon.energyDutch Red Cross, in rare political statement, calls for more action by Dutch politicians and world leaders to stop the 'unimaginable suffering' in Gaza.

@lightweight@mastodon.nzoss.nzYeah, this sort of political action is both totally appropriate, and quite thoughtful, frankly. The dairy industry needs to be taken down few pegs in its self-importance. There's a whole lot that's no where near sustainable when all the costs (esp. to the local environment) are considered:
@servelan@newsie.social"Bondi received at least 22 fraud complaints against Trump U. Her office announced she would consider joining a lawsuit initiated by the AG of NY involving potential tax fraud charges against Trump. 4 days later, And Justice for All, a political action committee established by Bondi to support her re-election, received a $25k donation from Trump. Bondi subsequently declined to join the lawsuit."

@sean@scoat.esWhen I find it discouraging that young twenty-somethings often don’t seem to care about these things, it’s good for me to remember that I care a lot now, but I really don’t even remember these giant protests from when I was a young twenty-something.
I do remember talking with people and saying things like “going to war without actual evidence—just GWB saying stuff—is stupid” and being shot down by older folks.
But I really don’t remember most of the political action.

"While housing lies at the heart of political disillusionment today, it is for the same reason becoming a primary trigger for mobilisation across Europe. In October 2024, 150,000 protesters marched through the streets of Madrid demanding action. Some governments, including Denmark and the Netherlands, are introducing policies to deter speculators. But real estate capital continues to hold the…
@benrosstransit@mastodon.socialAfter some neighbors say they want to be able to drive cars in cycletrack, DC govt replaces it with painted lanes & says basis for action was aesthetics of flexposts.
If the problem is really that flexposts don't look nice, why not replace them with decorative bollards?

@cdarwin@c.imTrump sent the National Guard to Los Angeles at a time when state and local officials said they had protests there under control.
The move reflects an increasingly evident pattern of his presidency:
Trump declares an emergency or crisis where many others do not see one,
enabling him to take sweeping actions,
rally supporters and fight on political terrain he finds favorable.
Trump’s declaration of an economic emergency in April enabled sweeping tariffs.

@buercher@tooting.chThe biggest political row over the heat erupted in France, where the National Rally figurehead, Marine Le Pen, called for a “major” air conditioning plan – one week after the party failed in its parliamentary push to halt new wind and solar projects. In an opinion article in Le Figaro on Thursday, the interior minister, Bruno Retailleau, a conservative, called to stop support for renewable energy and expand France’s nuclear energy sector.

@cdarwin@c.imTwo-time Georgia gubernatorial candidate and voting rights activist Stacey Abrams spoke at the event,
denouncing efforts by the Trump administration to strip the names of activists from Navy vessels, including possibly Medgar Evers.
“They want to take his name off a boat because they don’t want us to have a reminder of how far he sailed us forward,” Abrams told the conference crowd.
U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has undertaken an effort to change the names of ships a…
