Sure, why not? Make Trump sign a letter firing anyone he wants to fire. Or, take him to court if he won’t do that.
Shuler: They want to convince people that we are each other’s enemies—that we need to fight one another to land a good job, to find a home in a safe neighborhood, that only so many of us can live with dignity at the same time. But we are not each other’s enemies. We are each other’s neighbors
Shuler: Next Monday is not just Labor Day—it’s the start of Labor Week. Marches, rallies, and trainings: hundreds of thousands of working people coming together from this coming weekend to next, kicking off the single biggest year of action from now until next Labor Day
Shuler: This is the choice working Americans have been given: chaos, or the same broken status quo. We wanted cheaper groceries—and we got tanks in our streets. We wanted affordable health care—and instead, 16 million Americans are about to be kicked off their coverage
Wow

Rep. Nancy Mace said she was going to deliver a speech to more than 100 people Thursday but reportedly cancelled when only 8 people showed up (My Horry News)
Imagine if Biden showed up with this…..
I am so damn proud to be a California Democrat today. Who’s with me? Vote YES on Prop 50. Let’s win this 🔥
I know it's petty, but...someone should spend money hiring a billboard truck to drive around DC with the South Park image of Trump with a little penis. It will drive him nuts.
Newsom: We can’t do things the way we’ve done. Let’s disabuse ourselves of that. The Democratic Party needs to assert itself. We need to be strong again. Strength matters. People want conviction. They want character. They want a sense of intention and purpose…
Pay attention to what just happened in Texas. A lone state rep decided the GOP’s demand that she sign a "permission slip’" allowing police surveillance was a step too far. She refused to leave the chamber—and her small act of defiance has lit up the state and the nation. My write-up in the replies.
Over 300 pages of private emails and text messages from Fox employees and hosts 'Pretty out there!' Emails and texts expose Fox hosts who didn’t buy Trump’s election lies www.rawstory.com/fox-news-sma...
Washington DC’s 700,000+ residents deserve federal representation. DC statehood now.
I was just on a press call with TX Rep. Nicole Collier, @corybooker.com, and @gavinnewsom.bsky.social. Rep. Collier joined us from the TX Capitol. She was ordered to leave the call, and threatened with a felony charge if she didn’t comply. This is an outrageous violation of her freedom of speech.
Phang: These Texas state reps were representing their constituents’ best interests. Just because Republicans didn’t like it doesn’t mean they did anything wrong. In fact, they were doing a better job than the Republicans. Why? Because Republicans in Texas are only doing what Trump tells them to do.
Yes you will. Cancelling solar and wind projects is economically idiotic
Gavin Newsom’s late-night message to Fox
In setting up Meidas Canada we chose a microphone that carried historic weight. We picked the altec 639 b. If it was good enough for Edward R. Murrow and Buddy Holly, it was good enough for resistance to gangster fascism. This is an original mic and has never been used. @meidastouch.bsky.social
Zelensky wore a suit this time.
I think I said 2-3 days ago that we’re close to seeing the president of the united states forget who he’s talking about while they were live on stage with him and it happened
Release all the files. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...
Release the Epstein Files!
Lavrov hasn’t had such a good laugh since he yukked it up with Trump in the Oval Office after Moscow helped Trump win in 2016.
Trump left that meeting looking like Putin just showed him photos of him from the Epstein Files
This hearing over Pam Bondi's executive order to take over the MPD is NOT going well for the government. I'm listening in on the public line, but you can follow along with @annabower.bsky.social
International embarrassment.

Newsom: If California, one of the most un-Trumped states in America, is not successful, it’s at our peril. We may not get this back. I’m telling you, we may not. He is rigging this next midterm election before one vote is cast. He tried to wreck our democracy after the last vote was cast last time.
Throwing a sandwich at a cop: felony. Beating a cop unconscious with a flag pole: tourist behavior.
Read this and weep, Floridians. This is what Trumpenomics is going to do to you. Kiss your vacations and new cars goodby bc you're gonna have to use all your annual expendable income just staying on your health insurance. Could have voted for the nice brown woman who wanted to help you...

Trump looked weak, old. He is a punching bag for strongmen so he tries to beatdown on the vulnerable at home. A true bully.
Whoever is writing these tweets is our side’s equivalent to big balls.
🤣🤣🤣👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 @governor.ca.gov Top tier Trump trolling!😆😆😆
This afternoon, I told @nicollewallace.bsky.social that I had a sense of “dread” about what might happen in the Alaskan “summit.” After watching the press conference, that dread has come to life. I’ll be joining @jenpsaki.msnbc.com later tonight.
Fox News Reporter Jacqui Heinrich: The way that it felt in the room was not good. It did not seem like things went well. And it seemed like Putin came in and steam rolled, got right into what he wanted to say and got his photo next to the president and then left
Indeed she has.
Stop what you're doing and listen to this warning from @marcelias.bsky.social about the real reason for Trump's National Guard deployment in DC.
New in PN: Crime is down. But Trump's authoritarian power grabs are escalating. "The fact that crime is down conflicts with the ever-present right-wing narrative of a nationwide crime epidemic. So Republicans are resorting to sensationalizing random street fights."
Just one problem. Crime is down in DC. Read about the facts, & also the legal context as the administration’s legal authority to interfere with local law enforcement goes on trial today in a California courtroom. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...
Trump has given the District of Columbia the opportunity to make its case for statehood to the American public. Long overdue.
So, where are the Epstein Files?
Tomorrow morning I offer my thoughts on the 60th anniversary of the passage of the Voting Rights Act. I explain how it went from it being a law celebrated by both parties to something the GOP wants killed--and why SCOTUS may grant their wish. Only for Dem Docket premium members. hubs.ly/Q03jcjqP0
“We are talking about emergency measures to respond to what’s happening in Texas and we will nullify what is happening in Texas!” ~Gov Gavin Newsom
Indeed.
Jordy Meiselas: ICE didn't just lower the age requirement—they removed the age requirement. Now, at any age—you can go and join. They've riled up their base and have given them one lane to occupy: take out your anger, become an ICE agent, and chase down migrants. They are preying on people's hate.
Republicans sure are pulling out all the stops to wield the government against Texas Democrats. Warrants, FBI, court processes. Not a second wasted. Goes to show that if they *wanted* to bring Epstein's clients to justice, they could. They just don't want to.
🚨This case shows how the Trump admin is stripping due process from people. This woman had been complying with EVERYTHING the government asked her to do. She had a pending asylum hearing. But Trump's ICE, to hit quotas, detained her and illegally tried to strip her of the right to that hearing.
Things that will happen when he's gone: * we're going to learn about shit he did that's so heinous, it makes the stuff we know about look tame * his many minions will claim to have "always opposed" him and demand sympathy for their suffering at his hands * dancing in the streets, worldwide
Attorney General James took on Trump's fraud and the NRA's rampant corruption—and won both cases. So it's little wonder that Trump's politicized DOJ is now coming after her. The people of New York stand with their lawyer and champion.
Jennings: Having someone like Dean Cain out touting it—It's going to help them recruit. Lathan: It’s not 1995. No cares what Dean Cain thinks.
Wow: Seattle's updated election counts puts Katie Wilson, the progressive candidate for mayor, *above* 50% in the primary. She now leads Mayor Bruce Harrell 50.2% to 41.7%. The two will head to a November general election no matter what, but this is a mighty first-round lead for the challenger.
Yes, this is how you fight, Governor!
🧵 Right-wing extremists like Libs of Tiktok and Charlie Kirk totally concocted the Sydney Sweeney "outrage." The supposed left-wing outrage at Sweeney essentially never happened. Republicans made it up. And as a former GOP media consultant, I know the "one weird trick."
TEXAS REP. @crockett.house.gov: “There is no morality. There is nothing but lawlessness… If we’re going to preserve our democracy in this moment this is the way we are going to have to engage in this fight.”
Brett Meiselas: When people speak about the Epstein case as a cover-up in the past...the cover-up is happening right now. The biggest part of the whole scandal may be happening before our eyes right now—what Donald Trump is saying every day, what Trump and his team are doing every day.
The astonishing thing about Watergate, in contrast to today, is how the President was actually shamed into leaving office. Imagine that: shame.
RFK Jr. axes $500M in mRNA research. Texas GOP threatens to arrest Dems for blocking a Trump-backed gerrymander. A judge halts construction at Florida’s “Alligator Alcatraz” as a whistleblower reports inhumane conditions. The cruelty is loud—and growing. thinkbigpicture.substack.com/p/august-8-w...

Congratulations, sir! Appearing on South Park is an honor, indeed. Not only have you "finally made it", you had the best line of dialogue in the show. Good luck with your love of furniture and your continuing EPSTEIN Cover-Up, Mar🐫

Dems should fight on every front. If Texas steals 5 seats, Dem states should redistrict 30 GOP members out of their districts. We should insist DOJ release the entire Epstein File. Not only shouldn't we bring knives to a gun fight, if they bring pistols, we should bring machine guns.
The Trump administration just gave one of the most infamous sex offenders in American history a prison upgrade. You have to wonder why.

The President of the United States went on CNBC today and said: He won the 2020 election (he didn’t). He has a 71% approval rating (he doesn’t). The jobs numbers were rigged (they weren’t). I could say something funny here, but I won’t. It’s just so damn dangerous to have him in the White House.

I also didn’t hear outrage when Mike Johnson decided to clock out early, saying Congress wasn’t in session because he didn’t want to vote on releasing the Epstein files. If you’re going to blast people for bailing on their jobs, at least be equal opportunity about it.
It drives Jonathan Turley crazy when I remind everyone that he is just Mike Lindell with tenure. So, please make sure not to amplify this message.👇 Jonathan Turley is just Mike Lindell with tenure.
Jessica: I also heard no complaints when Mike Johnson decided to abdicate his job to say actually congress isn't in session anymore because I don't want to have to vote on turning over the Epstein files…. so be equal opportunity in your complaints about fleeing your job
