This is, of course, false. The United States exported $83 billion in goods and services to India last year alone.

Thank you, Rep. Mannion!
Collective bargaining rights, the freedom to organize, workplace protections - all under the greatest threat in generations, and we will not be silent. These attacks won’t stop — but neither will our resolve. On Labor Day, we celebrate the movement and the people that power our communities!
@chrislhayes.bsky.social channeling the same level of anger I too feel about this absolute insanity, as well as every other case of the death of expertise on display in this regime. By platforming this crap, it seems Trump and the GOP are wilfully destroying our country.
No one is saying this except Trump.
The U.S. is reviving “neighborhood checks” for citizenship. Your neighbors, your coworkers - asked to judge your “moral character.” A system once abandoned as invasive is back. When everyday life becomes surveillance, freedom erodes quietly.
We must never let up on our right to vote in free and fair elections, despite intimidation from those who know they could never win unless they cheat, lie, fearmonger, suppress, and oppress.

The grift is disgusting.
I get the same impression, Harry. No legitimate law enforcement purpose for this interview or Maxwell’s movement to a more open facility.
An important part of our conversation is about how the Black community should cope with a sense of powerlessness in this challenging time. Here’s an excerpt with a lesson from the great Alabama civil rights lawyer Hank Sanders.
DOJ sat with Maxwell for hours. She says there’s no list, no blackmail, no names to expose. Case closed. They promised a reckoning. Instead, the powerful protect the powerful, and the victims bear it forever.
Arabic Studies, Holocaust Studies, Russian, Eastern European & Eurasian Studies, Religion, & more—decimating the humanities destroys our ability to understand the world, act in it, and envision a future. Blue states are complicit in this destruction of scholarship and teaching @uoregon.bsky.social
Donald Trump is going to try to rig the outcome of the 2026 election because he is an authoritarian and that is what authoritarians do. I don't know if I should say it louder or softer, but people need to pay attention and take action. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z2bc...
Elizabeth Warren: "The one thing I want to remind everyone is when Democrats get in power again -- and we will -- we've got to change the rules. We've got to change the rules on the impact of money in politics and we've got to pass the voting rights act again and make sure there is true protection."
🤣😆 Literally double! Bahahahaha 😆 Ignorant fool doesn't even know her own state's stats!
The republican party is dead. They're maga now. Or fascists. Or nazi. Any of the three will do. We should stop calling them republicans because that word seems more acceptable than the other three I mentioned. We're so used to hearing that word.
When there was positive economic data under Biden, the New York Times told us to worry, with headlines like: “Why a Strong U.S. Economy Is Making Stock Investors Jittery” and “Inflation Has Been Easing Fast, but Wild Cards Lie Ahead” But when there is worrisome data under Trump, NYT reassures us:
Such perfect satire!
Hope it’s not another embarrassing 💩show like last time.

Rep. Gabe Amo: "The only people who have demonstrated that they are soft on crime are Republicans in Congress and Donald Trump. I remember January 6 ... I also have seen this administration slash hundreds of millions of dollars from efforts to combat crime at the local level."
No, I am not panicking. I am outraged. I am outraged that the price of standing up to Trump — of standing for democracy — is to be subjected to endless lies, attacks and false accusations by people who know better. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/im-n...

You know how people called women hysterical for predicting the right wing would take down Roe v. Wade (which they've done) and then attack access to birth control (which they're doing)? Hear me when I say that women's very right to vote is next. www.npr.org/2025/08/09/n...
Lift this up!!!
Trump: We're going to be adding a magnificent ballroom—most beautiful ballroom, I think, anywhere. We need it. Meiselas: We need it? No, we literally don’t. We need health care. We need affordable housing. We need an end to wars. We need peace in Gaza. We don’t need a ballroom.
LET’s! Because Trump & his circle have insulted & disparaged brilliant & substantively credentialed Black people as incompetent, while elevating the most mediocre, unremarkable & unintelligent white men.

Absolutely correct.

At 48 years old, Jen Pawol became the first female umpire in Major League Baseball history on Saturday when she made her regular-season debut working the bases at the Miami Marlins and Atlanta Braves games.
Odd, how South Park is covering Kristi Noem and her ICE hooligans more accurately than The New York Times.
Polluters paid good money for that.
Do NOT watch this network. It is not news. It is just a regurgitation of lies from the current administration.
Any Dems who don’t have this attitude should exit politics now:
heads up -- this is very well done. www.brennancenter.org/our-work/res...
The Supreme Court is totally compromised! They have stabbed America in the back!
Larry Summers: "This is way beyond anything Nixon ever did ... this is the stuff of democracies giving way to authoritarianism. Firing statisticians goes with threatening the heads of newspapers, launching assaults on universities, launching assaults on law firms. This is really scary stuff."
Sickening
Every day @stephenking.bsky.social proves he is a really good writer.
Disgusting!
Donald Trump was found guilty of 34 felony counts of falsifying business records.
“Chris Truax, an appellate lawyer who served as Southern California chair for John McCain’s 2008 primary campaign, — published an article in The Hill today, titled: “Trump’s mental decline is undeniable—so what now?”” I’ve never understood why this wasn’t a bigger story.
Heads up!
Fascist regime! Ugh!
🚨NEW OVERNIGHT: Big win for L.A. — a federal court just blocked Trump’s immigration raids across So. California. The Ninth Circuit denied Trump’s attempt to restart warrantless sweeps that targeted people for speaking Spanish, having an accent, or just standing at a bus stop in Latino communities.
I’m sure the guy who cheated at golf, marriage, business, taxes, insurance claims, and elections will provide us with 100% accurate jobs’ numbers after handpicking a new crony.
The GOP’s Texas redistricting plan will almost certainly end up in court. Want to stay updated on the latest developments? Subscribe to our newsletters below👇
Wolff: I was talking to Epstein and he went into his safe and came out with photographs... And it was Trump with girls of an uncertain age in Epstein's house...There are two in which topless girls are sitting on Trump’s lap—and then a third in which he has a stain on the front of his pants.
let's be fair, who among us hasn't had our underage quote-unquote 'spa worker' stolen from us by our dead pedo bestie. happens all the time, am I right?

Just a reminder: we don’t need Ghislaine Maxwell to expose the truth. The answers are already buried in DOJ files they could unseal today. She’s not some key witness—she’s a convicted liar, predator, and trafficker. Blanche isn’t seeking justice. He’s buying her silence. That’s it.
Exactly. The criminals are running the DOJ!
Oh yes he is! He pardoned the J6 criminals and cop beaters!
Making criminals great again! Disgusting and disturbing!
Is it just me... but with each passing day, my disdain for anyone that voted for him grows exponentially. I didnt think I could hate them anymore especially after they tried to kill me and my coworkers on Jan 6th, man was I wrong.
Attorney General Pam Bondi briefed President Trump in May that his name appeared in the Epstein files, sources say. cnn.it/4ma3tcO
To be clear, this now a massive cover up involving the President, the Attorney General, the FBI Director, and the GOP Congress.
Exclusive: The Justice Department told President Trump in May that his name is among many in the Epstein files.
it is very good timing that i wrote "mike johnson has no dick" just days before he demonstrated the fact for all to see www.nytimes.com/2025/07/19/o...
Putin puppet.
Wait. Is she literally quoting from Russian intelligence sources?
they literally shut the government down in order to avoid the truth about Epstein. an entire branch of government isn’t working for the American people b/c they are terrified of the truth.
Jeffries: "Why haven't Republicans released the Epstein files to the American people? It's reasonable to conclude that Republicans are continuing to protect the lifestyles of the rich and shameless, even if that includes pedophiles ... it's all connected."
"As the most recent U.S. ambassador to Orban’s Hungary, I’m often asked if the Trump administration’s tactics feel familiar. The short answer is yes. But the more important—and unsettling—question is this: Does the way Americans are responding feel familiar, too?" www.nytimes.com/2025/07/23/o...
Yes, the King files are a desperate distraction, but also, this: "The King files were compiled by the FBI in projects associated with its COINTELPRO...These projects illegally surveilled and worked to discredit Americans that FBI director J. Edgar Hoover thought were a danger to American society."
Jeffries on Trump's "treason" allegations: "When you have nothing to present that's affirmative to the American people, Republicans blame Barack Obama. It's laughable."
The American automaker reported that tariffs cost them $1.1 billion and reduced the company's profit margin from 9% to 6.1%.
They SHUT DOWN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES to avoid releasing the Epstein files.
So Pam, release the Epstein files!
This. $9B 9 fu*king BILLION in stock buybacks. This is what Sen. Warren has been fighting for years. It benefits no one but the shareholders. Per usual. We need Medicare for All.
House Republicans held a hearing Tuesday designed to boost the Trump administration’s crusade for further tightening voting rules. The panel gave a platform to leaders of two top anti-voting legal and advocacy groups to spread misinformation about voting. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

The best time to fight really hard to save democracy was yesterday. The second best time is today. We have no time to waste. Brick-by-brick they’re tearing down the wall that separates democracy from autocracy. We have to stop them & hold the lapdog Congressional GOP majority accountable.
Disgusting! I hate this Trump administration and all the sycophant Republicans who are destroying democracy!
I just heard a guest say on MSNBC that Trump likely doesn't have a case in his Wall Street Journal libel case unless he gets Judge Cannon. Everyone nodded and agreed. And it struck me that we've now reached the point where brazen corruption is just expected and accepted as a part of civic life.
If you are not paying attention to this, you are doing exactly what Trump and the GOP want. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
We don’t think we need an investigation to understand what happened here.
If they’re lips are moving, they are lying!
And, uh, some personal news: This is also my last column for The Post. I was offered and accepted a buyout. To answer one possible next question, I'm not sure what's next save taking some time off. If you want, you can enter your email at pbump.net and I'll let you know when I figure it out!
Do you know who would know what is in the Epstein files? The lawyer who prosecuted the case. Oh, wait.👀
I just voted NO to advance Trump's DOGE cuts to PBS, rural radio, and lifesaving aid. Republicans need to decide: Does Congress decide how to spend taxpayer dollars, or do they just take orders from Russ Vought?
Clueless Stephen Miller.
Markey on Epstein: "It's part of this larger conspiracy environment that Trump thrives in, whether it be birtherism...now the Frankenstein monster is at his front door...his MAGA base is demanding a release of all of this information & Democrats agree w/ MAGA base. He's alone in a corner right now"
Release the Epstein files.
This is the same MAGA rep who was accused in February of assaulting a woman — not his wife, they’re divorcing — but Ed Martin refused to sign off on the arrest warrant.
Saved by Satan!
So glad he got booed! Had to ruin the soccer game!
I was confused too!
