And now I just learned our president ordered the murder of 11 people. Every day a new low.
Don't feel like doing a repost that puts the murder video on the timeline yet again but do feel like repeating the point that the president just straight-up assassinated 11 people for supposedly doing something that wouldn't be a death-penalty crime if they were caught and convicted
Not good.
Nyet, no plot here, Comrade… Step over here by the window…beautiful day, yes?
Do these guys actually believe what they’re saying?
The Jewish vote in NYC is large & extremely powerful. This isn’t Des Moines. It’s New York City. It’s not a national race. It’s different than anywhere else on the planet. Jeffries represents a lot of different folks. Zohran’s “river to the sea” comment hurt some of those ppl. Its politics.
Yes he is. And the Governor would do well to let the populist blue collar Democrat take the wheel. I like Janet. Smart lady. She sees what Graham is accomplishing. She’s not gonna want to get embarrassed. Chuck is out of touch. @grahamformaine.bsky.social might just be the revolution.
Drug trafficking is not a capital crime; it doesn’t carry a death sentence. I genuinely cannot think of anything under U.S. law that would permit premeditated government assassination of people suspected of drug trafficking.
Fair enough.
Dr. Lisa Cook… The “Fed Gal”. Yeah, time for bed.
Wow. I’ll be watching. The WH will look like even bigger fools. Stupid boys.
Idiots become Senators. And that’s a problem.
As many as 100 survivors of Jeffrey Epstein and other victims of sexual abuse are expected to attend a rally Wednesday in Washington, D.C. as a bipartisan Congressional effort gains steam to force the U.S. Department of Justice to make public its controversial files on the disgraced sex trafficker.
Is it outside? The whole time? I hadn’t seen the venue…
The president is sending the military to control American cities and if you're a reporter who's framing that illegal power grab as "pushing the boundaries of constitutionality" or "acting boldly to fight crime" or whatever, please go find another line of work where you won't get us all killed.
Ray is spot on. He often is. Although I think Ray gave him some leeway back a few years. Good to hear him speaking up.
when you’re upset at the cool kids for not inviting you to their lunch table
A Democratic super PAC is launching a $700,000 digital ad blitz slamming Susan Collins for opposing a bipartisan bill that would ban members of Congress from trading stocks. This ad accuses Collins of “the worst kind of greed… using insider information to trade stocks.” Please WATCH and SHARE. 👀
The US military will conduct a flyover of the White House and wider DC at 11am tomorrow (Wednesday). Epstein’s victims will be holding a press conference on Capitol Hill around the same time.
Except that’s a lie.
If someone doesn’t vote for the Democrat (& against whomever the GOP candidate is), if they stay home or vote third party, they are helping fascism and authoritarianism to become a permanent reality. There is no inbetween. If I have to explain it to someone then it’s probably not getting through.
Orange paint gonna be the death of me…
He lies a lot…
Fully concur. Thanks for that.
The next Democratic president should declare that the National Emergencies Act and Article II of the Constitution allow him to: •admit D.C. and Puerto Rico as states •abolish ICE •grant citizenship to any immigrant •disband the 5th Circuit •expand the Supreme Court Seriously: Why the hell not?
ABSOLUTELY.
The US imports between 23-30 pct of its sugar. The rest, produced in America, relies heavily on migrant labor. Prepare for products that contain sugar to increase dramatically in price.
To put the effects of this distinction in more concrete terms: The order *does not* require the Trump administration to withdraw the remaining national guard troops. It can still use them for things like protecting federal property. But not for domestic law enforcement. bsky.app/profile/anna...

A sad reality. US president blatantly committing crimes in broad daylight with no pushback from his own party.
A judge ruled that Trump is illegally using the military as a “national police force with the president as its chief,” and found that his Los Angeles troop deployment broke the law. Story: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...
He did a great job! Time for the young guns to rise up and take control of the future!!
Presumably…yeah, you’re right…no more laughing…this train is rolling.
Very interesting. I hadn’t thought of it that way. But yeah, many Cuban wealthy plantation owners were run out by Castro and made their way to Florida. There was already a caste system. (As there is in every culture I imagine). And maybe religion plays a huge role as well in authoritarian fascism?
Yep.
Most of them don’t even realize they’re fascists. They’re just taking their church classes as children and applying it to later life. They like rules, strictness, doctrine…and cult behavior.
Most Cubans who were in their 20s in 1961 are now dead. It might be more likely that they think Dems are Communists and Atheists? Bay of Pigs was 64 years ago. We’ve been to the Moon, fought in Vietnam, Iraq, Afghanistan, lived thru 9/11, been overtaken by Theo-fascism. They live in America now.
I really hope everyone shows up to vote in 2026. We are going to need an overwhelming outpouring of voters. We will need numbers never seen before in an American midterm. If we do that, we will force change. Everyone must participate. #StopTheMadness
She majored in home economics… Truth. It shows.
Well, at least his inner circle has an idea of what to expect when he does actual depart… I’m sure they followed the threads and TL’s out there.
No golf in 2 1/2 weeks is odd. That I find weird. He lives for golf.
Excellent. Job well done. Time for young blood.
I’m alive, I’m alive, I’m so incredibly alive!
Absolutely. No need to report any analysis or factual opinion, give the cult in a bubble precisely what they already believe. They go to Fox as a comforting reunion each night after facing the real world during the day. Fox just shovels their own BS back to them.
Paul Finebaum predicted UNC. Howard was 0-3 this weekend. People followed him. Tough start to the betting season.
Yep. Bigly.
💯%. I've come to accept how morally depraved Donald Trump is. But I'll never get over how blindingly imbecilic he is. www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...
Lying for the sake of lying is a mental illness.
Dig it large!
Portland, Maine crowd as Democratic US Senate candidate Graham Platner takes the stage today.
The amount of energy wasted so kids don’t have to actually do any research is incalculable.
@grahamformaine.bsky.social may just change this broken country… The dude is for real.
This dude. This dude might just change the fucking world. @grahamformaine.bsky.social Thank you! 🇺🇸
If this was Moscow, the parcels would be bigger!
This….
Spot on.
It wasn’t enough to be CEO of a chocolate company… Willy Wonks Weeps.
Excellent article here. Worth the read!
He is sans orange makeup. Wonder if that’s meaningful?
Cruz is a complete fraud.
TEXAS AG BILL PAXTON HAS 3 PRIMARY RESIDENCES. Crickets from Bill Pulte.
But of course….
Anyway, I’m glad to know the president is still technically alive so he can watch this tomorrow www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...
Here in the US, “two weeks” actually means never.
If you're 60, 69.1% of all job growth since your birth occurred under Democratic administrations. If you're 45, that number is 74.7%. If you're under 28, the number is 100%. Happy Labor Day.
Rudy has a “Head of Security Detail” but can’t pay his bills? Make it make sense.
Lololol.
Say it ain’t so…
We are living in a world where all the guys who couldn’t get a date in HS have guns and badges. And all the guys who locked themselves in the basement playing video games are billionaires. I hope art, music, theatre, literature, somehow help save this broken world. Join the rescue team. Create.
"Fun really is the name of the game for Trump & co. It’s fun for them to see a majority-Democratic city like DC live in fear of violence/deportation, to flood the trains/buses with armed law enforcement just because they can, to unleash troops who understand that they will not be held accountable."
Giving Catholics a bad name as well.
CHINA is now the most powerful country in the world. Trump handed it over in 6 months. www.cnn.com/2025/09/01/c...
Soon…
My quote of the day Passion is one great force that unleashes creativity, because if you're passionate about something, then you're more willing to take risks. Yo-Yo Ma
Love this.
Nope. Not one living soul. Not even Rudy.
@grahamformaine.bsky.social might just be the answer for Maine. It certainly isn’t Collins. Want healthcare, housing, and clean water? Vote for Graham. He won’t be bought and paid for by the Federalist Society.
He’s a beautiful person.
I like the rebrand.
Fair point.
Nobody is calling it a distraction. We’re just taking time out to laugh a little.
Good riddance.
He’s providing them with valuable mulching experience though.
If you just happen to be in NYC in November, please come see a night of my 11 performance run at The Chain of my new 9/11 based musical #44Lights Trying to save a broken world, one song at a time.
The Nazis went with a huge health kick in 1934… Even though their leader was addicted to amphetamines and opiates.
Indeed.
Yep. 👍 I’m in!!
True. Plus more I suspect.
My wife asked me “how damaged must his soul be to see starving children & immediately think of building a resort on their land?” “He has no soul”.
Trump looks at starving women and children, and sees a resort destination. How does someone exist like this?
Trump looks at Gaza and sees a resort, a tourist hub, an AI powered city funded by Crypto. We see women, children, hunger, poverty, and homelessness. That’s the difference.
This is complete insanity. AI powered cities with a 5k token? This is, in fact, beyond insanity.
They’re grasping at straws…anything they can spin.
And sadly, according to reports, most farmers voted for trump even though he hurt them during his first presidency. Of course, there will be bails outs. But they won’t be enough for the little guys. I wonder how we tell hard working farmers that trumps foreign policy isn’t in their best interest?
A thought: Graham Platner in Maine is running a populist Dem campaign for Senate on 2 issues for local workers: Healthcare & Housing. Graham can walk into a bar & talk to EVERYONE. He’s a smart combat vet. Imagine if he won & wasn’t certified? Cud get interesting? @grahamformaine.bsky.social
