I'm just gonna flip on some corporate media really quick... ABC: ads CNN: ads Back to CNN: Trump's Chicago "immigration enforcement" MSNBC: Protests in Chicago Back to ABC: A "federal judge getting in the way of Trump's immigration crackdown" Back to CNN: Weekend travel Nothing about Trump MIA
THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER!
What’s wild to me: NOW, media outlets & medical organizations are “stunned” by the damage RFK Jr. is doing to CDC, other health agencies, & public health. Me & my colleagues have been screaming about him for years. Years. Even more so in the last year. We were called hyperbolic. 1/
An upcoming news conference with victims of Jeffrey Epstein could be “explosive,” one of the congressmen pushing for full release of the files on Epstein predicts. Democratic Rep. Ro Khanna said the victims’ accounts will force lawmakers to vote on a bill requiring DOJ to release its files.
Congratulations Thom! Be on the lookout for my dear friend and colleague Sara on Philosophy there. I hope your semester is off to a great start. www.durham.ac.uk/staff/s-l-uc...

Folks look at you like you're crazy when you say we're in the midst of the worst Article I constitutional crisis in American history, & well, here we are, hundreds of miles on the interstate past the Goldwater-Rhodes exit that we already should have taken. bsky.app/profile/mcop...
Philadelphia DA, Larry Kramer tells Americans that the potus cannot pardon someone prosecuted & convicted in a State Court! So, if anyone shows up in his city on orders by the federal gov’t, and they start breaking ANY laws, he WILL go after them (and this includes ICE agents! 👍👍👍
As a retired former DHS U.S. Customs and Border Patrol Supervisory federal officer, my advice to other federal officers is this... "A badge is not a license to dehumanize."

At least while alienating all of our allies, Trump has been instrumental in bringing others closer together.

The US brought in nearly $30 Billion in tariffs in July, triple the amount collected in previous years That's not good news Tariffs are taxes on Americans That $30B was collected from you and me when we bought food, clothes, electronics...
OK, hear me out...A LORD OF THE RINGS remake, but with these two taking the One Ring to Mordor:
Congratulations!
A judge dismissed the case, finding no probable cause after Florida police arrested a man as part of Ron DeSantis’ crackdown over rainbow chalk ark memorializing the victims of the Pulse nightclub shooting in Orlando. More: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Obsessed with the absolute shade of referring to Giuliani as “Former Masked Singer contestant”
It's weird how the exact same people who claimed Biden was hiding have absolutely no concerns that the man who is all about dominating every news cycle is not having any public events.
Totally tracks. Thank you for putting this out there!
When you're a local, it's a hilarious story because it makes even less sense. Everyone knows exactly what kinda lady he was picking up in that neighborhood at that hour, and she smartly wants her cash up front.
Feel FREE to Re-post. ;)
An LLM called CatGPT where no matter your prompt it responds with a picture of a cat sporting major “fuck you” eyes
WHITE HOUSE AIDE: we need a distraction from the president being dead OTHER WHITE HOUSE AIDE: let’s kill Rudy
Before Joe Biden had officially launched his campaign, I had warned that resegregation was at the core of the racial grievance of Trumpism. A month later, I would write about the solution to it, and as usual nobody heard because nobody listens to me lol

Post a video of yourself with today’s newspaper saying this
man’s never met a press camera he didn’t want to be in front of and has been calling into every right wing radio station and cable show to rant for decades, if he’s doing neither, something weird is up
We won't stop until they stop ✊🏽 East LA
O'Keefe to Noem: "At least 20 people who signed this letter were current FEMA employees & they've been placed on administrative leave. Is it now the policy of DHS that anytime an employee puts their name on something criticizing you or POTUS, they should anticipate being put on leave or fired?"
So the photos we get of the “golf outing” today is a pale and feeble looking one of him getting to a car at the WH and this one of him returning. Nothing from the course.
Oh, Andy Borowitz. What a gem you are.
Whether or not these people are actual foreign agents is almost irrelevant. Their actions are observationally equivalent to & indistinguishable from the actions actual foreign agents would be taking. The consequences of our total Article I constitutional crisis, right here:
ICE procurement activity since August 22, totaling ~$19M. Companies highlighted in yellow are new to the "Who's Profiting from ICE?" map, available here: bit.ly/3TgUZEq Source: USAspending.gov
Why is the Draft Dodger-in-Chief trying to drag us into a war with Venezuela? The claim is that drug cartels are so out of control they’ve been designated an international terrorist organization, so we need to send warships. But we’re denying Venezuelan’s asylum claims who fled for their lives. 🤔
I like the rebrand.
BREAKING: Bernie Sanders wants RFK Jr. under oath. He’s demanding a special Senate hearing on the CDC disaster RFK Jr. helped create. Go Bernie!
DoorDash spent years misleading its delivery workers out of their hard-earned pay. We held them accountable and secured $16.75 million to go back to its workers. Eligible DoorDash delivery workers in New York should file a claim by November 21, 2025.
There’s a photo of him in a golf cart. None of him playing golf that I’ve come across
Could be dementia. The shift from “moderate” to severe can be sudden and leave patients profoundly and obviously incoherent. Happened to my dad. No more public appearances.
Oh no! So, it turns out that Vance’s claim the deportations would open up housing ignored the economic and social destruction of everything making a region viable to live in? Who would have guessed?
He put chalk on his shoes then walked on the Pulse Memorial crosswalk. Police arrested him. But the court said they had no cause and he was released. The man arrested is now considering suing the state of Florida citing first amendment right violations.
CEOs are trying to convince you that quiet quitting is worse than wage theft, while they plan on replacing you with a robot. Unions know better. Happy Labor Day Weekend.
There's only one way to stop the rumors about Donald Trump's health: a press conference. Why won't he talk to the press, and why isn't the media doggedly demanding it?
"The straw man being put forward is that it's either we have the military or we're going to get our throats cut at night in DC. Is there no middle ground? Do local law enforcement account for nothing? We've got the National Guard GARDENING right now in DC. Is that an efficient use of our resources?"
PARK POLICE HAVE ARRESTED A TRANS DISABLED VETERAN AND ARE DENYING HIM HIS RIGHT TO SPEAK TO HIS LAWYER!
@jollygoodginger.bsky.social is in DC with other vets right now standing up for democracy. He's playing General Milleys speech on repeat for them today 💜 #LoveTheVets!

Can confirm. It’s how things went with my dad as well. Trump fits the bill
Me, too. My dad slipped very suddenly from moderate to full blown dementia. They can’t pump him full of uppers and Provigil anymore.
I agree. He progressed from moderate to severe and they simply can’t have him in public.

Science is real
Pure fucking evil. Everyone involved in this shit needs to be held accountable.
"The lunatics are running the asylum."
Medicare for all, paid leave, universal childcare. Busting up big corporations and tackling Wall Street’s greed. Getting big money out of politics. Supporting unions and fighting for higher wages. If Dems want to win back working people, this is the agenda they must support.
If you say 'heteronormative' or 'unhoused person' or 'food insecurity' you're basically talking gibberish and nobody can understand you but if you say you can see inflammation in children at the airport and that vaccines lower IQ or that germs are a myth you get to fire all the scientists.

Mark Burnett and The Apprentice bear a great deal of blame on this count. Everyone in NYC got a front row seat to his lifetime of failures. People believed The Apprentice represented an actual business mogul. 😞
Yep. This is a massive self-own that could matter.
KEEP GOING— the more the regime abuses and alienates our service members, the better it goes for us down the line. It’s a travesty and self-own.
He’s providing them with valuable mulching experience though.
Ah, that unmistakable shift from moderate to severe dementia. He’s no longer “presentable.” Certainly not to the press. They’re figuring out what they need to do. I’d put a good amount of money on that.
Pritzker: "No one in the administration -- the president or anybody under him -- has called anyone in my administration or me. It's clear that in secret they're are planning this invasion with US troops."
Since at least 1980, a conservative administrative law super-structure has encouraged us to see Article II as granting the Executive unlimited power and we have reached the logical end of this Movement, scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=e...

Orlando - Pulse rainbow memorial: protesters are now prohibited from painting the pavement, road signs have even been installed.

If you're arrested in Illinois protesting the planned ICE HQ in North Chicago, I can represent you pro bono. Email me at sheryl@weikallaw.com. As always, I will take as many cases as I can.
Welcome to the FO phase: Szczerek, CEO of paving company Drogbruk, was caught snatching the prized memento from young fan Brock’s hands. Szczerek’s countrymen swiftly blasted him on a Polish job search site as a “sack of garbage,” “common thief,” “primitive scammer,” and “shameful jerk.”
I’m serious. This REALLY infuriates me. @nbcnews.com @cbsnews.com @cnn.com Do your job. You failed to lift this up in 2024. If farmers are hurting, explain why and who is to blame. And remind Americans that we paid BILLIONS for Trump’s first tariff blunder. It’s so irresponsible to ignore this.
PS: Bot armies neither vote nor fight.
Let them underestimate opposition on all fronts. When the charismatic leader is gone, the most uncharismatic humans on the planet come to bat. Keeping a grip on their consolidated power will get more difficult by orders of magnitude and they’re left holding the bag they filled with disaster.
www.cnn.com/2025/08/30/u... This isn't going away like the Epstein files.
Crazy how some of the same people who think teenagers are too young to transition also think they are old enough to get married and have sex with adults
New Mexico is overriding the federal government on the topic of COVID19 vaccines to ensure their residents can access them. States hold a tremendous amount of public health power. They should use it.
The Police are more trouble than they’re worth. Completely unhinged and out of control. Just randomly closing down streets and causing chaos. They’re currently making all these drivers angry and everyone is laying on their horns right outside my windows. FUCK THE POLICE! #ACAB #FreeDC
Yep. www.npr.org/2025/08/23/n...
Jones: I want to bring theology into this because you have all these people that want to give thoughts and prayers. But I was a minister, and that is a form of theological malpractice—when you pray for something you have the power to change.
Both Biden and Obama have been very out and about in public today. Coincidence? 😂😂
Joe Biden is out buying ice cream while everyone is asking whether Trump is dead.
