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 group found that individuals who tested positive for the virus were twice as likely to die from cancer compared to those who tested negative. It should be noted the study focused on a time period before vaccines were available. Vaccinations made a difference!
“These discoveries underscore the huge impact of respiratory viral infections on metastatic cancer resurgence, offering new insights into the connection between infectious diseases and cancer metastasis,” the group wrote.
U.K. Biobank data: infections can, in many cases, double an individual’s risk of dying from cancer. "Dormant cancer cells are like the embers left in an abandoned campfire, and respiratory viruses are like a strong wind that reignites the flames," senior James DeGregori, PhD.

A recent federal court opinion could reinforce oversight of health/safety conditions at the Northwest Immigration Processing Center in Tacoma. A court of appeals overturned a ruling that barred state officials from conducting inspections. The case will now go back to U.S. District Court in Seattle.
Why couldn’t the Coast Guard just board the boat leaving Venezuela, arrest the people and get more information on who they’re working for? Why did they have to kill the people?
The U.S. Supreme Court is being asked to decide if citizens can still enforce the Voting Rights Act, after a federal appeals court ruled that only the government — not private citizens — can sue to enforce protections against racial discrimination in voting. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

The House just released the first tranche of documents in its Epstein investigation. But the materials likely won't satisfy those clamoring for more info about the case. Most of what was released in the first batch of files is already publicly available.
Weeks after a gunman opened fire on the CDC, House GOP 2026 budget proposes a ban on federally-funded research aimed at developing policies to prevent gun violence. The research resumed in 2020 after a two-decade freeze.
Guns are the number 1 cause of death in children and we don’t talk about it. The only logical conclusion is that GOP hates children and families. #FireRFK

Reid: Bondi is not a real AG. She just works for Trump. All these U.S. attorneys — what’s her name from Fox (who I hope is sober) — she’s not a real U.S. attorney. She works for Trump. They’ve gutted the DOJ. The DOJ doesn’t exist. The FBI doesn’t exist. It’s all just Trump’s employees.

The U.S. Secretary of Energy does not know that electricity is energy. I'm glad we've gotten rid of DEI programs and are now giving America the leadership it deserves.
Fox News had to pay 3/4 of a BILLION dollars for lying to its viewers. And it STILL lies.
Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va., the vice chair of the Intelligence Committee, says he was denied a meeting with career intelligence workers because Laura Loomer objected.
Phang: The judge notes that the MacArthur Park show of force was just sheer political theater. Major General Sherman, objected, expressing concern that there would be a large number of people because it was Father’s Day. To which Bovino criticized him, questioning his loyalty to the country.

The coronis fritillary follows a migration within Central Washington, emerging in the spring in Yakima Valley & taking refuge in the Cascades in the summer. The idea that a butterfly was taking its own annual journey within Yakima County intrigued Dr. David James, who studied the monarch for years.

The Department of Energy hired five academics to raise doubts about climate change. 85+ climate experts (organized by @andrewdessler.com) reviewed their report. Our conclusion, detailed in 450 pages of analysis: it is biased, full of errors, and not fit to inform policy making.
The Revolution Wind farm was 80% complete when Trump stopped it. In the irony that has become ubiquitous to 2025, the fishermen who supplemented their incomes by working on the project (captains, deckhands, and fishing boat owners) mostly voted from Trump. www.canarymedia.com/articles/off...

Unfortunately, the conservative Supreme Court judges are Trump’s puppets, and he has complete control over them!
Until it’s overruled by our corrupted judiciary.
I think he already did that with his executive order creating a "rapid response" team in DHS that he, or whoever is puppeteering him, can probably order around. They allowed online sign-ups for it, basically no questions asked. He specifically said they would go after protests.
Yes but according to SCOTUS, he cannot be held accountable for any illegal acts he conducts as President so he will continue his illegal activity with impunity... and to out detriment/democracy/freedom...
Since it was illegal cant hegseth be brought on criminal charges in california?!?! He isnt immune!!! Cant military leaders involved also be brought up on criminal charges at the state level?!?!
So what? John Roberts gave him absolute immunity. So where do we go from here?
Why did the judge stay the injunction for 2 weeks?
Now, now, now...let's be fair! Dems are busy writing even MORE strongly worded letters!
Southern MAGA govs are reversing Reconstruction: sending southern troops into northern cities to harass (and worse) minority groups.
And the punishment for his breaking the law is…?
Yes, I sincerely don’t understand the point of a stay. If you’re confident in your ruling, why allow law breaking to continue for any period of time and make legal challenges easier for the institutional lawbreaker?
The court staying it’s injunction until Sept 12th is infuriating. As with recent tariff decision, stating they are illegal, there should be no stay which allows the damage to continue. Let the Trump admin rush to find a higher court to do its bidding. It’s so difficult to make lawbreakers stop!?!
Newsom v. Trump: a federal court granted our injunction, blocking Trump’s illegal use of the military for domestic law enforcement. The ruling is clear: Trump is breaking the law by trying to create a national police force with himself as its chief.
Congress is back in session and the first thing I did today was go straight to the House floor to speak. We need to look around at what is happening - our freedoms are at stake. youtu.be/nNOy_emVCtc?...
Pritzker: "It breaks my heart to report that we have been told ICE will try to disrupt community picnics and peaceful parades. Let's be clear -- the terror and cruelty is the point, not the safety of anybody living here."
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.
Pritzker: "When did we become a country where it's ok for the US president to insist on national television that a state should call him to beg for anything? Especially something we don't want. Have we truly lost all sense of sanity in this nation that we treat this as normal?"
Good morning, you beautiful humans. We have some good momentum going into this week ahead of Thursday’s hearing. Let’s use it! Call your reps, demand they fire RFK Jr. They’re listening- we’ll see which of them steps up to do the right thing. #SaveHHS #USAnotRFK #FireRFKJr
It’s official as of yesterday: Gov. Greg Abbott and GOP leaders have now made it even harder in Texas to prevent school shootings, suicides and murders by domestic abusers www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
That Pritzker press conference was... surreal, and I think marks a significant moment of escalation in the constitutional omni-crisis. This was the governor of a state saying plainly the Union itself is being torn apart and his state is being militarily invaded by an authoritarian regime.
Tell Fitzpatrick to stand up for his colleagues US Rep. Scanlon and Lee who were denied their congressional right to conduct oversight and visit the Moshannon ICE facility. It would mean speaking against his donor, the GEO Group, but it's what's a true bipartisan would do. PA - 215 579-8102
I know, I know, but: The president of the US saying, literally, "we're going in" in reference to sending the military to an American city for no reason beyond terrorizing the local population should be the most immediately impeachable shit imaginable
This is Dingo. He gets very anxious if he doesn't have a lap to sit on. In order to meet his lap needs, his family made him an emotional support dummy using pre-worn clothes donated from his grandpa. Dingo couldn't be happier, and we're happy for him. 13/10 #SeniorPupSaturday (FB: Janelle Grace)

This is Bear. He was found on the streets with very little fur and inflamed skin. On top of that, his bladder had herniated, and he needed immediate surgery. Without intervention, his condition would have resulted in fatal complications. You can help him below ❤️🩹 15outof10.org/bear-2

Trump’s Department of Energy made up a “report” on climate change — and it’s full of lies. Their real objective? Continuing to sell out our environment, air, and water to Big Oil billionaires. We’re fighting back. www.npr.org/2025/09/02/n...
The largest SNAP cuts in history went into effect yesterday, eliminating or drastically cutting food assistance for millions of Americans. And it’s all to pay for more tax cuts that primarily benefit the super-rich. Trickle-down economics isn't just a hoax — it's cruel.

Trump on moving Space Command to Alabama from Colorado: They went to all mail-in voting. So they have automatically crooked elections. When a state is for mail-in voting, that means they want dishonest elections. That played a big factor also
I'm concerned about the multi-state outbreak of vibrio vulnificus (flesh-eating bacteria) in the Gulf, with 60+ cases across 5 states, & 10+ deaths. On my travels along the gulf states, I didn't see any additional information on how to stay safe. I wonder how CDC cuts have impacted this response.
