Have you seen the brilliant veteran outside DC Union Station? He keeps playing Gen. Milley’s speech’s about their oath being to the constitution on a big portable speaker.

Medal of Honor is military. Medal of freedom is for public service.
Was there a game tonight? Colts fan. Any karma coming Belichick’s was earned in multiples.
Platner: No one cares that you pretend to be remorseful as you sell out to lobbyists. Symbolic opposition does not reopen hospitals. Weak condemnations do not bring back Roe V Wade. Maine deserves better than Susan Collins.
So if a crypto creator dies, does their currency dive as well?
It’s true.
Aren’t ears supposed to be a unique identfier like lip a n finger prints?
Tuesday, 10:30 am. Go ladies, go!
Well Canada has a Cobra code name for its geese, so sure.
Did this trip for the 3rd time today and I love it so much. It feels like a bit of faff to load/unload my wheelchair to go for a short stroll, but it’s also nothing compared to the headache of driving downtown and looking for parking. I love my mobility options!
New Mexico has issued a public health order that removes federal restrictions to COVID-19 vaccine access so that pharmacies in New Mexico can vaccinate people of all ages and risk profiles. Every state need to do this!
Loving this for everyone present, especially Cyndi.
Depends on how his speech has been affected. Also he’s 81, 1 mini stroke and speech could be affected.
Wow. Say you have never studied the Napoleanic Empire. Please explain why the Congo and Quebec speak French? One can learn much just from going to art museums in France, or the French history gallery at Versailles.
We didn’t get the truth the first time he had Covid and went to Walter Reed. How do I know? Had a family member receive antibody treatment that December. He had to have been at death’s door then. That dementia we all suspect: also a sign of brain damage from low O2.
If you enjoy… Weekends Safe working conditions Retirement benefits Paid vacations Breaks at work Sick leave Paid holidays … then you’re part of the labor movement. Happy Labor Day.
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.
The phrase “Not fit to shine TR’s shoes comes to mind.” At least as far as workers safety.
Something about the character in power. I read it decades ago but I still picture this character in my mind as this brain in a glass vessel with tubes and electrodes attached. It had no soul, IIRC. Sometimes I feel like that is what we are fighting, a brain bereft of soul or feelings.
I was thinking about an old sci-fi book by CS Lewis. Every time Trump does his little Oval Office meandering pronouncements, it reminds me of the 3rd part of the Space Trilogy, “That Hideous Strength.”
Jones: We have a presidential administration that has more outrage about the changing of the cracker barrel logo than they do about changing the policies that allow our children to be gunned down in school…
Tariffs are self destructive.
I’m sure someone will sing about how Miller subverted Trump to complete his Nazi agenda. No one wants to hang.
Both “attempts” proven to be carried out by Trump sympathizers that were either fed up with him or potentially in on faking the attempt. If you ask why the Bethel shooter died, consider how mob bosses tie up loose ends.
Johnson would be prime suspect.
Worth reading CDC's Pledge to the American People from 2024. It is, put simply, the antithesis of RFK Jr.'s actions in office to date. www.cdc.gov/about/pledge...
What is with JD and “gratitude?”
We are going to need a spread sheet of all the things we need to do or undo to put our democracy back on track.
Gross.
Vance on undermining the Federal Reserve: "I don't think we allow bureaucrats to make decisions about monetary policy and interest rates without any input from the people that were elected to serve the American people...POTUS is much better able to make these determinations."
Like I said. They aren’t embarrassed by history, it’s their playbook.
It would be a service to the country to UN-gild the Oval if JDV does become president.
JD hasn’t acted on his thinly veiled desire to push Trump over the Truman balcony railing, so maybe Tulsi Gabbard is just waiting for a “trigger” word that was implanted in her Russian spy brain for such an assignment.
He’s a hedge fund dude. Can he be trusted with anything that isn’t nailed down.
We have 3.
Put a sign on each bathroom that says family bathroom or guest bathroom. Or accessible bathroom if both are configured so a scooter or wheelchair can maneuver. Take the focus off the dog whistle words.
Bingo. @parkroseperma.bsky.social has a new video on this. youtu.be/qP38E9RWUb8?...

I wonder how much of the FBI white collar division got pink slips.
They run at the mercy of freight lines. So annoying.
Shhhh.
We have a similar zealot in Indiana. Lt. Gov. gave out thousands of COVID exemptions during the first round of those.
Remember when Putin said it would be a 3 day war?
Idk how many times I have to yell that gathering as a community is the only way to beat this facism. 🫠🥴
👇🏽 🎯
Pressure sore avoidance
And raped children. Show us the unredacted Epstein files.
Trump’s about to sign an EO to “punish” flag desecration… but let’s not forget: on Jan 6, a rioter beat a Capitol police officer with an American flag. That man got a pardon. Spare us the fake patriotism.
😭I hate facism
They are rich and cannot cook?
No. Dictatorship, yes.
Look inward indeed. Stephens Miller’s heart of darkness.
Volume UP!!!! This kid is going places! Bless him.
@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-...
“Totalitarianism in power invariably replaces all first-rate talents, regardless of their sympathies, with those crackpots and fools whose lack of intelligence and creativity is still the best guarantee of their loyalty.” ― Hannah Arendt, The Origins of Totalitarianism
Just A Friendly Reminder…
Meanwhile, in Indiana, we live with a governor complicit to Trump.
Donald Trump's threat to bring the National Guard to Chicago isn't about safety — it's a test of the limits of his power and a trial run for a police state. Illinois has long worked with federal law enforcement to tackle crime, but we won't let a dictator impose his will.
Polish folks are awesome.
This feels like a spot of good news www.sciencedaily.com/releases/202...
The blind #BrokenPost all too quickly declares that "No evidence suggests Trump ordered the FBI raid of John Bolton’s home." Maybe turn on the lights.
Did his board agree to this? Are the mutual fund managers or stockholders throwing a hissy about the dilution of their stock holdings? 10% value of everyone who had holdings in Intel went b-bye, right?
Can we get his family to Canada before this happens?
I feel like his staff is abusing him when I see this.
Will Jack get out of US to safety?
Taking on Chicago. Voting moron on that tactic.
Basic training. For our most elite law enforcement service, prior to Jan. 20.
They say phones only make us miserable but I just got this news alert and laughed for a solid minute so who is to say
The youngest panelist dropping the most knowledge — @adammockler.com makes the case clearly in defense of @gavinnewsom.bsky.social & @barackobama.bsky.social in under 35 seconds
Don’t just find 5 seats to offset the authoritarian power grab in Texas. Find every seat you can. The response to their constant fuckery has to be disproportional. Otherwise they’ll never stop until our democracy is dead and buried.
Calling all democratic governors. It’s time.

Best news this week.
Wondering if the farmers will be able to sell all the corn and soybeans this year.
Here we go. More of this please. I'll bet this will gain them a lot more business than it loses. Have the MAGA tantrums started yet?
If pundits would like to talk about violence, a terrorist recently shot up the CDC and another assassinated Democratic officials in Minnesota but they sort of let both stories disappear Not as threatening as motorbikes in DC I know but maybe we could circle back?
Mockery. Gavin’s team just given it straight back at MAGA.
So my daughter saw a woman arrested in Georgetown and then suggested that we not go shopping at the mall in Columbia Heights today out of fear of the Feds being there. We went to Bethesda instead but this makes me furious.
Absolutely reasonable.
We are not slipping into fascism. We are there. What the actual ever loving fuck?
This is hilarious. Find the ball.
Blumenthal: "My stomach turned when I heard the president of the United States characterize Vladimir Putin as his fabulously good friend. Vladimir Putin is a war criminal."
I’m doing the same thing. 45 minutes of government functioning for people and trying to do good.
This will not end well.
Every Democratic member of Congress should be in the streets of DC saying this dangerous authoritarian escalation must stop. Do they not grasp what’s going on here?
We’re not distracted and it’s not going away.
This is masculinity too
an age test and a perfect joke in one place (via onelegblackheart on threads)
Allow me to address the elephant in the room: The Trump administration is not setting the course for a four-year term. The Trump administration is setting the course for an everlasting dictatorship. If Americans don’t want that, the window to stop them is closing quickly.
Can you all please share this :: missing young lady in Arizona 🙏🏼👇🏼
Taylor has a new album???
I was going to say that every teen and child get a pass for using the strongest language they know to tell the perverts to fuck off.
Recruitment with National Guard will plummet. They are weekend warriors because they do it part time.
The UK is ever an ally of the heart.
