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.
Outside the CDC, people are chanting “USA, not RFK.” They are fed up with having one unqualified person dictate the nation’s health. #USANotRFK
A couple of months ago, the Navy dishonored civil rights hero Harvey Milk by removing his name from a ship. Now, the Air Force is dishonoring itself by celebrating a domestic terrorist called Ashli Babbitt.
The Alligator Alcatraz stunt, which only existed for a few weeks, is now closed. We paid $400 million for this nonsense. We could have housed 26,000 homeless people for a year with that amount of money.
It’s about time a world leader said out loud what has been obvious to most intelligent people. That Donald Trump is a Russian asset. newsukraine.rbc.ua/news/portugu...
“Since January 2025, FEMA has been under the leadership of individuals lacking legal qualifications, Senate approval, and the demonstrated background required of a FEMA Administrator,” the FEMA employees wrote. www.huffpost.com/entry/katrin...
🚨BREAKING: In a landmark victory for voters, a Utah judge struck down the state Legislature’s gerrymandered congressional map and reinstated the citizen-led redistricting reforms voters approved in 2018. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
Not legal... he does not have the authority. Of course, in this bizarro #maga nightmare we are living, nothing matters, #America is his playpen.
Fired based on mere allegations—another step on the slide towards a banana republic. www.nbcnews.com/politics/whi...
A wave of authoritarianism is reshaping the world. Donald Trump isn’t leading it—he’s learning from it. See how he’s borrowing from his peers, such as Orban, Putin, Netanyahu, and Modi, in Zeteo’s new breakdown of the Global Authoritarian Playbook. Watch the full video: zeteo.com/p/the-global...
The second amendment guarantees the right to a militia to guard against federal tyranny. But if a president can use that force against its own state, against the wishes of that state, then it is no militia at all and a clear violation of the second amendment.
One lesson from South Park and Governor Newsom is clear—it’s time to lean into the absurd. Stop playing by rules they’ve already broken, flip the script, and beat them at their own game. #Pinks
I bet Putin has the Epstein files.
1937, a billboard showed a happy family promising the “World’s Highest Living Standard,”while crowds lined up for food. Today, Trump claims the economy is great, jobs are fine, and tariffs don’t hurt, as Americans struggle and his endless lavish spending mocks their misery-history's cruel deja vu.
Our federal employees sign up to serve the American people — not to be terrorized. This chilling account details the threats our patriotic civil servants are facing. Every American should be disturbed by these attacks on our public servants.
To be clear, ‘Alligator Alcatraz’ will be just one of many moral stains from the Trump administration. #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue #Pinks
Yes, sadly you have that right...
Situation on 14th St and W St. NW, with federal agents -- no specific agency identified -- pulling cars over for checks. They arrested a Black woman in this car. BIG crowd of people shouting at police. "Fuck you!" "What is wrong with you!" "You don't need to terrorize people like this!"
⚡ This is how you fight. All blue states, bring this same heat.
The Trump administration is now seeking to replace PBS with “Prager University,” a far-right propaganda organization that isn’t actually a university. One of their “kids videos” has Christopher Columbus telling them that slavery was “no big deal” and “better than being killed.”
Not one news organization asked about it today NOT ONE INCLUDING THE WOMEN 🙄🙄🙄
Reposted w/correct numbers! Whatever you’ve been doing, STOP & LISTEN (read). This is happening on our soil in our name paid for with our tax dollars. Every one of us should call our House members & Senators. 202-224-3121 And flood the call lines to Gov. DeSantis’ office: 850-717-9337
Pritzker: "It's cheating. Donald Trump is a cheater. He cheats on his wives. He cheats at golf. And now he's trying to cheat the American people out of their votes."
💥 Kristi Noem Just Got Dragged by South Park 💥 They’re back! South Park didn’t just take a jab — they annihilated her. Kristi Noem’s “tough” image got the full South Park treatment… and I’m here for it. ICE facility visit? Check. DHS video propaganda? Check. Gun-toting? Check. Dog story? Check.
Great work, Bill Cassidy. www.usatoday.com/story/opinio...
"While the budget changes bar health providers who perform abortions from being a part of Medicaid, the clinics being closed did not offer abortion services. Their services included tests for sexually transmitted diseases, birth control, cancer screenings..." ohiocapitaljournal.com/2025/07/18/s...
Whaat???? Pendulum neuron apparently making contact.
This is no time to go high. If GOP states redraw maps, then Democratic states should redraw maps. Give the same energy. They will never play fair or by the rules. Ever.
We are losing the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, which has helped educate, inform, and entertain millions of Americans. Instead, we’re getting a vulgar new gold ballroom, which none of us will ever see.
It's nothing less than astounding how the party of "free market" and "get gov out of the way" morphed into "the president dictates prices at whim".

BREAKING: We're suing ICE for unlawfully targeting and arresting people who show up to court for their immigration hearings.
Two can play that game.
WHY IS CONGRESS NOT LISTENING TO #TRUMP/EPSTEIN #VICTIMS????
Virginia Giuffre's sister-in-law notes that the FBI already has any information Ghislaine could give up, bc the victims already risked it all to share it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=aqUE...
"What a surprise"?? Said nobody...👇🏻🤦 #TariffsAreTaxes #TrumpRecession
Trump is a true compendium of #MentalDisorders. Entire #Treasonous @GOP should be rightfully banned from government for letting this pathological criminal into the WhiteHouse.
The demented psychopath is up.
We are very far over the cliff here folks
#TrumpRecession #TrumpEconomy #TariffsAreTaxes 🤦🤬👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻 www.forbes.com/sites/tylerr...
Virginia Giuffre’s brother: I think we were shocked by it—especially the use of the term “stolen.” Because she’s not an object. She’s a person. Someone who was recruited at Mar-a-Lago—his property… it just kind of makes us wonder… how much he knew
Virginia Giuffre was a 16-year-old towel girl. Why would Trump know or care whether Epstein hired her away?
As Zeldin speaks, the heat index at the bottom of the screen is showing parts of the country hitting feels-like temperatures of 121 degrees. Extreme heat is a leading cause of death from climate change, a toll that will increase as CO2 levels rise.
NEW: The FBI and DOJ have the original Epstein jail video, and their copy doesn't have a missing minute like the one they released to the public. They should release the missing minute. www.cbsnews.com/news/jeffrey...
ATTN: If you’re a DoJ employee and have knowledge of the missing minute (or 2:53) of Epstein jail video, feel free to reach out to me via signal (in my bio). I’ll keep you anonymous- as I have the thousands of current and former federal workers who have sent me tips. Please share this widely. 🙏🏻
Lots of confusion around Epstein. Hope this helps!
Does Miller sit alone in a darkened room imagining what the most hateful and damaging shit he can do to harm minorities in America and around the world? U.S. is worse than Nazi Germany at this rate. #ThisMustStop #AmericanGestapo #TrumpCrimeSyndicate www.nytimes.com/2025/07/23/h...

Oops: On Joe Rogan’s podcast in September 2018, Tulsi Gabbard acknowledged that Russia interfered in the 2016 election. Rogan called it “amazing” that it took until 2016 for foreign election influence to become a major issue in the U.S.
No, this is not a joke. This is real. North Carolina Republicans have introduced a sweeping elections bill that, among other steps, would bar election officials from encouraging or promoting voter turnout. www.democracydocket.com/analysis/don...
#StephenColbert 🤔 His cancellation was 💯 political. #Pinks #ProudBlue
“In her bid to review these files, Bondi created one thousand witnesses to what is in the Epstein file — and Bondi’s attempt to politicize the search for Epstein files. “One thousand.” t.co/WPuUpLBvge
82-year-old Luis Leon, of Pennsylvania, went to a Philadelphia immigration office with his wife to replace his lost green card. Instead, Leon, who immigrated to the U.S. from Chile in 1987, was handcuffed by two officers and hauled away with no explanation. share.newsbreak.com/e4mc6ncf?s=i16
I would VOTE @stephencolbertshow.bsky.social for POTUS!
Neguse: Only in Washington, D.C. could politicians come to the floor and brag about cutting $9 billion from rural radio stations while two weeks ago they voted to increase the deficit by $4 trillion. Spare us these lectures.
Is there a letter writing campaign to STOP @CBS from offering @Stephencolbert.bluesky.social as a sacrificial lamb to appease the trump administration?
I’d say that @stephencolbert.bsky.social is (with the lone exception of @maddow.msnbc.com) the most brilliant, humane person I’ve encountered in broadcasting. His mind works faster than anyone else’s at a level of sophistication that is unmatchable. Genuinely a generational talent.
Both?
That Jeffrey Epstein evidence isn't missing — there's more than you can imagine.
Just like #Texas... banana republics in everything but name.
A good Epstein files question. And here's a great Epstein resource (satire.) babylonbee.com/news/click-h...
Yep. This.👇
No hell hot enough.
This is the consequences when we chose the wrong direction.
YES!
Padilla: "If it was only going after dangerous criminals, there would be no debate. I agree with that. But the fact is the vast majority of those being detained are the same people who were deemed essential workers at the end of the first Trump administration during covid. That's a cruel irony"
Padilla: "What if I was outside a Home Depot, because I like to do some work around the house, not dressed in a suit. Would I be a target of ICE enforcement under Tom Homan? Probably. And it is just wrong."
There is a reason we all CANCELED @washingtonpost.com
Padilla: MacArthur Park—After they staged this show of force, there were zero people detained. I’m sure they got tons of footage for their next TikTok videos. On the flip side, what’s happening to the community? Before these agents went through the park, it was the site of a summer camp.
My interview with ABC and Mary Kekatos abcnews.go.com/Health/us-me...
Trump is aggressively ignorant. He does not learn, actively resists it, and has surrounded himself with people who enable his stupidity.
Crockett: If there is anyone I am concerned about their mental acuity—it’s the current president
Texas can't adequately warn people about deadly floods, but it can immediately let me know that a cop got hurt 250 miles away from me.
#TaxTheChurches 👇🏻
CNN is reporting the FEMA response was delayed 3 days because of Noem’s cost controls, and FEMA officials were “taken aback” by how limited the agency’s response was.
WE ALL DO! ANY GOVERNMENT AGENTS MUST BE UNMASKED AND CARRY IDENTIFICATION.👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻
Let’s talk about weather balloons—a.k.a. radiosondes—and why recent cuts to NWS staffing and balloon launch schedules are putting the public at risk (eg., Deaths in Texas). No satellite or model can replace what these humble balloons do. Here's why. 🧵
Breaking: per FEMA sources Kristi Noem was responsible for THREE DAY DELAY in deploying search-and-rescue in Texas Fire her. Blood on her hands.
Torres: If the bill is so popular, why are the cuts largely delayed until after the midterm election? And if the bill surgically targets fraud, waste and abuse, why is it necessary to set up a $50 billion stabilization fund for rural hospitals?
Unconstitutional.
30,000 layoffs at VA is still 30,000 too many. Morale is sinking, and veterans are getting shortchanged. Meanwhile, 75% of new healthcare funding is going to private care, not the VA. The GOP is quietly marching toward privatization—vets deserve better.
Oh, the level of STUPIDITY... Are trump's minions THIS stupid, or do they THINK WE are?
#TaxTheChurches
it's amusing to me to see Trumpers banging on about Bondi orchestrating an Epstein coverup while refusing to devote an extra thought to who she would be trying to protect
TED CRUZ CAUGHT VACATIONING AS TRAGEDY STRIKES TEXAS...AGAIN The Daily Beast reports that Ted Cruz was vacationing in Europe as floods ripped through Central Texas, killing at least 89 people, including 27 campers and counselors from a summer camp. Link: www.thedailybeast.com/ted-cruz-was...
The Heritage Foundation's Project 2025 called for dismantling the NOAA, which provides warnings of natural disasters, such as the deadly floods in Texas. The irony is that Heritage wanted these cuts because it’s angry that NOAA helps prove the reality of climate change--the thing causing floods.
In a major win for voters, a federal court ruled that a Kansas law banning prefilled mail-in ballot applications is unconstitutional and violates the First Amendment. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
Are we great yet?
Mayor Bass: This morning, it was frightening in Los Angeles to see tanks essentially rolling into MacArthur Park. It was an egregious show of force. I have no idea what their purpose was. I don’t even think they detained anyone. Los Angeles was peaceful before June 5. We need to go back to that.
When you take a vacation while your constituents are drowning that’s called a Ted Cruise.
