Were you to ask Leavitt etc, they would identify themselves as patriots whose beliefs rest on the country’s foundation. But with their talk of demons and evil, they are framing reality in a way that would justify Donald Trump’s campaign for fascist power. adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/tragedy-br...

Shortly after Trump met with Putin in Alaska, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard abruptly ousted a CIA expert who had helped brief Trump’s team in the lead-up to the meeting. By naming this person in a memo, Gabbard appears to have identified a CIA officer who was operating under cover.

There is no legitimate reason to do this, or to have done it to Fauci or Bolton. It tells you everything, in case you have not been listening.
We do not fully grasp how damaging the SCOTUS’ presidential immunity decision was. What we know is it was a disaster and the huge damage it has caused is being compounded daily. That is because the result is a collaboration between corrupt justices, a supine Congress and a demented President.
Nine former CDC directors basically said RFK Jr is a threat to public health.

It’s still early, but pretty good turnout so far for Bernie Sanders and Graham Platner’s (running against Susan Collins) rally here in Maine today.

Happy Labor Day, Illinois!
This Labor Day (and all other days): Thank the workers who serve you. Appreciate the workers who care for you. Respect the workers who pick up your trash. Salute the workers who get you your mail. Honor the workers who teach your children. Pay all workers a living wage.
Quite the image from a Labor Day rally in Ellsworth. (Hard not to notice that Susan Collins is the only member of Maine's four-member federal delegation not to have posted anything on social media today about Labor Day, the importance of honoring workers etc etc.) tinyurl.com/yb26uc7w #MEpolitics

Today we celebrate the strength and resilience of working people everywhere. Nearly 300,000 federal employees have lost their jobs this year not because of necessity, but because of a political agenda. And while people’s lives were destroyed in the name of “saving money,”
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!
My little grandson (2.4) toddled off with his packed lunch today for the first of 3 full days with his new childminder. My daughter will work 3.5 days this week in the GP Surgery instead of 2 days. Big difference to her income and to the patients.
Illinois is now the number one state in the Midwest to work in. This ranking reflects our work in making Illinois the best state in the nation to do business, raise a family, and thrive.
Workers Are Facing a More Hostile Work Environment Due to Trump’s Policies flip.it/NYv.w7
Mayor Brandon Johnson of Chicago has rejected the Trump administration’s plans to send troops or militarized federal agents to his city for immigration enforcement, and ordered local police officers not to aid the federal crackdown. nyti.ms/4lWfVMB
This is a plan for ethnic cleansing. It’s morally horrific and absolutely insane

He lies as easily as he breathes. And when people get hurt, will he say it’s for their own safety? It might fool a percentage of the Fox audience but depending on the vast majority to be ignorant will not exempt his capitulation to what is obviously against civil rights/liberties.
This is totally self-inflicted, and it’s totally unacceptable. Instead of lowering the cost of health care for Wisconsin families, Republicans are doing the exact opposite – jacking it up.
Wisconsin teachers are getting ready for back to school, and the last thing they should have to worry about is if Trump follows through with dismantling the Department of Education and taking away critical funding that our students need. spectrumnews1.com/wi/milwaukee...
Republicans may be scared to talk to voters about how their budget will kick over 250,000 Wisconsinites off their Medicaid, but I’m not. I’m in La Crosse with Wisconsinites to sound the alarm on what these cuts to Medicaid will mean for families and their health care.
Wisconsinites deserve answers from Republicans as to why they voted to take away their health care.
While touring INNIO Waukesha Gas Engine, I heard about how the President’s on-again, off-again tariffs are impacting their business, their workers, and their customers. Wisconsin small businesses deserve a fair shot to succeed, not chaos.
Oh, Andy Borowitz. What a gem you are.

Everything is perfectly normal and fine. Nothing to see here.
Oh dear. The stable genius is showing off again.
NEW SUBSTACK: TRUMP CHECKED! For years Trump has wielded executive power like a hammer—bludgeoning democratic norms, ripping apart families, and trampling constitutional rights. But now, at last, the judiciary is rising to remind him: you cannot rule by decree when the Constitution stands above you

Even if you could see Putins forearm dangling from the rear of Trump’s suit, nothing about his dead would be released from government until they had the TV cameras set up on the newly anointed MAGA figurehead.
I like the rebrand.
"Nobody wants to be a cop [in DC]. They were abused. They were spit on." "When you when you say they were abused and spit on, I'm assuming you're talking about January 6th, correct?" "All you guys want to do was bring up J6 about the answer to everything."
Early night for Sleepy Don. Not even any insults either.
If this is the “strong leader” they keep selling us, why are they hiding him like Weekend at Bernie’s? 👀
Where is the mainsteam media? Anyone out there? Can you hear me???

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.
Just like everything T enjoys due process, compassion and human rights that he has always denied others if it suited his personal interests.
“The Texas Supreme Court dismissed Paxton’s motion. Paxton was trying to reverse the ruling from an El Paso court that had issued a restraining order against Paxton”
We must offer something that we are voting FOR, a vision about how this country will be better when we stop the bad guys in power and elect Democrats to replace them. So how about this vision that returns power to the people and delivers big, bold change in America: www.youtube.com/watch?v=wisr...

California is expanding California Highway Patrol teams in key regions to bring down crime. We've seen what success looks like when investing in strategic community partnerships, and with this next phase, we're continuing the work to improve public safety throughout the state.
In 2024, I deployed the California Highway Patrol to operate regional partnerships in Bakersfield, San Bernardino, and Oakland. As a result, crime is down — with 9,000+ arrests, nearly 5,800 stolen vehicle recoveries, and 400+ illegal gun seizures. We're going to hold the line on these strategies.
We’re launching a new task force to clear encampments, restore public spaces, and connect people with shelter and services. California is taking action by reducing unsheltered homelessness and outperforming the nation in slowing this crisis.
While Trump goes backward on clean energy development, California pushes forward in building an affordable, clean energy future. I signed a new executive order to maintain our progress in adding clean electricity to our power grid while protecting thousands of good-paying jobs.
TRUMP IS AMERICA’S BIGGEST LOSER.
Public safety in California is on the rise. Last year, California had the second-lowest homicide rate since at least 1966, decreasing by nearly 12% overall since 2023. We're going to drive that progress forward up and down the state.
In recent public remarks about deploying the National Guard to Chicago, Donald Trump said: “I have the right to do ANYTHING I want to do. I’m the president of the United States.” Not even a King has that right. Certainly no president. Who knew a non-drinker could be so drunk with power?
This is the type of person Trump pardoned. He proudly asserts that they should have injured a US Capitol Police Officer worse than they did on January 6th (@sergeantaqgo.bsky.social) had to medically retire). But MAGA supports law enforcement? Seriously? Then show me by condemning this guy.

Pritzker: "National Guard troops, any kind of troops, on the streets of American city don't belong unless there is an insurrection, unless there is truly an emergency. There is not."
He’s providing them with valuable mulching experience though.
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."
