Wow.
It’s now September and “nothing is close” between Jonathan Kuminga and the Warriors Training camp is in four weeks and Kuminga has until Oct. 1 to sign the qualifying offer. Here’s the latest
Also, Jeffries is propping up a series of dangerous fictions -- Trump sincerely wants to help Americans, legislation is still how we get things done, Trump will work to us to do that -- that only provide cover for Trump. Trump's clearly pushed Congress aside! So say it! And fucking act like it!
jeffries: maybe we can find common ground trump: i want to send troops into california democrats are simply unprepared to fight this war.
The tolerance for lies is killing our country. Trump just called Chicago “the most dangerous city in the world, by far.” But its homicide rate isn’t even in the U.S. Top 20. Will major media call out the lie – and call it “a lie” – or will they talk about his “tenuous relationship with the truth”?
This is pure BULLSHIT. First Lady Michelle Obama promoted a healthier lifestyle for Americans, especially children. She NEVER said to throw out decades of medical science or that vaccines caused autism. Comparing Michelle Obama to Kennedy is what is wrong with the media today. DO BETTER.

Okay. I just came back to this and you aren’t calling these efforts resegregation yet, you absolutely should be
The pre-vaccine era was HELL for kids. We have already failed them on gun safety, we cannot fail them on the issue of vaccines. #VACCINES cause Adults!
Well done MAGA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The mental fitness of elderly Presidents has been such an important issue for the media lately, so I expect wall-to-wall coverage of how President Trump has once again thrown a fit about one of his own signature policies, showing no awareness of how it arose or who executed it.
Old Man Yells at Himself
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."
This is not legal, unconstitutional. Only time Missouri Legislature is allowed to do redisticting is after a decennial Census, not mid-decade. See: redistricting.lls.edu/state/missou...
This whole thing is great but the highlighted bit made me laugh out loud. 😂 Marlon on Snoop:
Trombone Shorty releases new album from New Orleans, a tribute to the city's soul, marking the 20th anniversary of Hurricane Katrina.
Trump did this
Courtesy of the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute and Scientific American, this is what they’d see if those thousands of vertical metres of ocean hiding it from view suddenly drained away: www.youtube.com/watch?v=jgfk... But how did it get this way? 4/
you just know somebody’s being called by their full name right now
“.. The Oval Office photos don’t resolve those questions. They raise them. And until the press decides to treat Trump’s health the way it treated Biden’s, makeup and memos will remain the White House’s first—and last—line of defense.” @passantino.bsky.social www.status.news/p/trump-heal...
I hope people realize how absolutely fucked this situation is. This isn’t normal. People are resigning all over the place because the government is mishandling our data, ruining our public health services, and generally making Americans less safe.
Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker: "The Trump administration has not contacted me at all whatsoever. Nobody in my administration. They're just looking to invade the city of Chicago, not coordinate with law enforcement … not coordinating with the state of Illinois, the Governor or the Mayor of the city."
So not only do churches NOT have to pay taxes, they're going to get YOUR tax dollars to boot. This seems like oh, I don't know, government establishing a religion in violation of the First Amendment?
Is the "Coach Curry" title in Steph's future? @daltonjohnson.bsky.social spoke to the Warriors' superstar, who didn't deny that he once thought he'd be a high school basketball coach, not an NBA player.
I wonder why Bill Pulte didn’t send this case over to DOJ with a criminal referral along with his selective targeting of Adam Schiff and Lisa Cook? apnews.com/article/paxt...
Still boggles the mind how Republicans can so vigorously claim they love America when they spend so much time and energy looking for ways to honor traitors

@jessicatarlov.bsky.social: "You know that if a Democratic president was doing any of these things, you would be outraged."
Welch: Everybody's missing the point here. The point is, he's doing this on purpose. He's priming the public to get accustomed to having the military in the streets
Lisa Cook should also sue Lutnick for defamation

All I do is work. I haven't had a vacay in 30 years

I often talk about the fact that MAGA does not access the same news as the left wing. I present to you Exhibit A. Dr. Daskalakis’ resignation letter excoriated RFK Jr. and shared that RFK Jr. was lying to the public, manipulating data, and ordering unethical actions. This what Fox News served.
Ashley Babbit dishonored her service by committing insurrection against her country. While her death is absolutely tragic and I wish it hadn’t happened, the Air Force giving her honors is in itself a dishonor.
Lydia, the 16 year old who is more honest than most of our elected officials and the corporate media who cover the administration
I have never seen so many public servants protest the mismanagement of a government. Trumpists will point to this as proof of the deep state, but the reality is that these are professionals who are desperately trying to get the public to understand how bad things are.
Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024. This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500. Remember this before you order your next pumpkin spice latte.
Really important new study on the tax rate of billionaires from @gabrielzucman.bsky.social et al Upshot: The top 400 ultrabillionaires: 23.8% Avg Americans: 30.2% Yes, the superrich pay far less in taxes than the rest of us. www.nber.org/papers/w34170

"There has just never been a president in recent American history who has gone out of his way to free more criminals and accommodate more crimes than Donald Trump," says @chrislhayes.bsky.social.
Cost of Trump's D.C. Occupation: $1.1M per day. Cost to operate public housing for D.C.'s entire homeless population: $169,226 per day. It's not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities.
Hegseth being such a lapdog that he had these soldiers be armed to be tough only for Trump to make them clean up trash is hilarious but also humiliating. These men and women don't serve to be political props and unpaid laborers.
With Lisa Cook suing to challenge Trump's firing of her, experts in mortgage law tell me her lawyer can now use discovery to dig into the role Trump loyalist William Pulte played in singling out mortgages of her, Schiff and Letitia James for scrutiny: newrepublic.com/article/1996...
I want you to think about what it means for the criminal president to be the primary source of economic instability, disorder and chaos while at the same time you, a normal law-abiding person, are doing everything you can do get ahead or just tread water. Do you feel resentful? You should.
I love my “I don’t want to hear about the news” friends, and I dearly wish I were in a position to say this, but also not hearing about it doesn’t stop it…
Am I the only one who thinks this sounds like textbook abuser language? Basically, ‘You say you don’t want it, but you do’ and, ‘If I didn’t hit you, I’d be forced to hurt you in a different way. And nobody wants that, right?’
Not scary at all, nope.
Where are all the corporate media headlines demanding his resignation? Where are the all the assumptions that about specialists visiting the White House meaning the president is dying? They did this daily with Biden. Why not now? Are they covering for their cash cow? Are they paid to cover it up?
Yup. He said it then Nutlick doubled down on it. America First!
Well said!
I don’t know if this qualifies as spilling the 🫖 But release the damn Epstein files already.
Dear journalists: The President has not fired Lisa Cook. The President is *trying* to illegally fire her. Your words shape people’s reality. Please be accurate in your reporting.
President Trump balked when asked whether he would send National Guard troops to Republican-led cities with high crime rates: “Sure, but there aren’t that many of them." Of the 30 U.S. cities with the highest number of violent crimes, more than half were in certifiably red states. trib.al/WEcfqPk
Trump keeps insisting we're the envy of the world but they have a weird way of showing it
To correct a point that DHS keeps obfuscating: Unlike Ghislaine Maxwell, Kilmar Abrego Garcia has never been charged with “trafficking” anyone. The trial the Trump admin is trying to avoid with its Uganda scheme is on smuggling accusations. www.allrisenews.com/p/kilmar-abr...
Pritzker: This is not about fighting crime. This is about the President and his complicit lackey, Stephen Miller, searching for ways to lay the groundwork to circumvent our democracy, militarize our cities, and end elections.
Pritzker: To the members of the press who are assembled here today and listening across the country, I am asking for your courage to tell it like it is. This is not a time to pretend here that there are two sides to this story.
Michaels: I have not had one single invite from a conservative news outlet. I have family members saying to me, “Well, why aren’t you talking to Megyn Kelly? Why aren’t you getting out there on Fox?” They’re not asking.
Referring to yourself in the third person is weird. Saying you are always right is dishonest. Wearing a ball cap in the Oval Office is tacky. Using your left hand to cover up medical issues on your right hand is concerning. And has he stopped being able to tie a tie?
Trump claims the government found $31 billion after he told them to “check the tariff shelf”
Love this photo of Monarch Butterflies in Ontario Canada probably Point Peel National that i went to yearly in Sept in my twenties as they gathered to cross Lake erie migrating south waited for the wind to change
Walz: "It boggles my damn mind that in the midst of a military takeover of our cities, the flaunting of the rule of law, that the press finds the need to talk about, 'Oh, there's a division in the Dem Party.' There's a division in my damn house & we're still married and things are good. That's life"
South Korean President Lee Jae Myung: “I look forward to your meeting with the chairman Kim Jong-un and construction of a Trump Tower in North Korea and playing golf at that place.”
I'm shocked--SHOCKED!!--that this would happen in the Administration of a president who asked GA's sec of state to find him 11,780 votes.
Trump says he’s going to allow 600,000 students from China to come to the US because he has a great relationship with President Xi and it’s very important to allow them to study here. Which is the opposite of what they’ve been saying for months.

Nothing even remotely subtle or confusing about what this is.

Alina Habba: "The president was rightfully voted in by a majority of Americans." (This is a lie -- Trump won a plurality but not a majority.)
About a month ago Jesse Watters declared that men don't film themselves working out - especially married men. His co-workers along with some regular guests on Fox News seem to LOVE filming themselves in gyms. Thanks to @acyn.bsky.social for reminding me the first clip existed.
When’s the last time you heard a Vice President talk about an investigation this way? You haven’t. Because the DOJ/FBI are supposed to be independent, and a VP using “we” to describe a particular investigation is not supposed to happen.
“I was r*ped sometimes 3 times a day on that island… and I was not the only girl on that island… Ghislaine must die in prison, because I’ve been in hell and back for the last 17 years.” Listen to the survivors.
Try somerhing new Gym and shut the f up. Crawl back into your hellscape.
Respectfully, Trump is the antithesis of anything I would ever compliment. I agree Dems need to be stronger, more vocal and adapt their strategies/language, but I will never capitulate to Trump. Serious question: compliment what exactly? Do you have compliments for Trump?
100%
Here’s an idea worth pursuing even if both major parties would oppose it now: www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...
@rokhanna.bsky.social: “Only 3% of the documents given to the [House] Oversight Committee are new. The rest are already in the public domain. Less than 1% of files have been released. DOJ is stonewalling.” khanna.house.gov/media/press-...
💥 The NFL is stoked to be woke. “All 32 teams will feature an end zone message of their choice at each home game throughout the season, selecting from four options: ‘End Racism,’ ‘Stop Hate,’ ‘Choose Love’ or ‘Inspire Change.’ africa.espn.com/nfl/story/_/...
This isn’t education, it’s indoctrination. The Trump administration gutted PBS and NPR not to save money, but to control the narrative. In their place, PragerU is moving into more classrooms. Already in Florida, Oklahoma, South Carolina, and Idaho schools.
The DOJ released the security video of Epstein's jail in parts so they could take out anything inconvenient. The DOJ released the Maxwell/Blanche transcript in parts so they could take out anything inconvenient. Such an obvious cover-up.
