DEPLORABLE... She's pathetic!
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.
🙏 Namaste 🙏
Two remarkable Ambassadors for our Planet, 99 year old Sir David Attenborough and 91 year old Dr. Jane Goodall. They’ve dedicated their lives to educate and protect.. 🌍 #janegoodall #davidattenborough #nature #chimpanzees #wildlife #environment #drjanegoodall #jane #sirdavidattenborough #bbc #bsky
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.
Almost 60 years later, this song is so relevant again. youtu.be/gp5JCrSXkJY?...
It seems if a pedo lures a child into his presence with the hope of making some money, he can then rape them, throw some money at them, and call them a prostitute. And we wonder why the kids are afraid to report. #ShameOnOurMedia
How did we ever survive, let alone become the strongest economy and military power in the world, before his tariffs?
Oh, Andy Borowitz. What a gem you are.
Jill Stein and Cornel West both disgust me — such goddamn, self-serving hypocrites.
Never Forget January 6. See those using flagpoles to beat law enforcement, using bear spray on law enforcement? Trump pardoned them. #NeverForgetJanuary6

@nealkatyal.bsky.social: “You’ve got the president who's imposed the largest tax increase on American consumers since 1993 … and he did it without Congress saying one word. That is not our constitutional structure.”
JD Vance on Donald Trump: “I’m a Never Trump guy. I never liked him. I don’t think he’s the person. I don’t think he cares about folks. I think that he’s noxious and is leading the white working class to a very dark place.” { ht: @marcofoster.bsky.social }
#FirstNameInSong Day 30 I’ve heard this song many times but it’s the first time I’ve heard this rendition. This quartet does a banner job with it: Ave Maria youtu.be/dRzI8y-EJJ0
"She did not die defending the Constitution. She died trying to overturn it. She was not protecting lives at a gate in Iraq; she was forcing her way through windows in the Capitol to stop the peaceful transfer of power." New from @markhertling.bsky.social:
CARTOON OF THE DAY (From @mluckovichajc)
👇🏽🎯
The thing about Ashli Babbitt that I kept saying is that, for most of history, most countries would have strung up a bunch of the J6 folks in the capitol steps as a sign. And for good reason. This is what happens when you don’t.
Mike Johnson makes clear that when Congress returns next week he's going to work tirelessly to cover up the Epstein files
BREAKING: James Talarico just gave one of the best speeches we've seen this year. Every American needs to see this.
Everyone gets healthcare. Anything that is paid is based on your income. I pay more you pay nothing or less That’s what I think could work. Obviously it needs a lot more than a few posts.
They're now saying it out loud: The Administration's goal is to undo the political independence that Congress granted the Fed, so that the President can directly set rates.
Meiselas on GOP now saying it's the states' job to lower costs: So everything that happened with the economy while Biden was trying to put out the fire created by the arsonist Trump during his first administration, was blamed on Biden. But Trump makes everything worse, now its a state issue?!
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.
Psaki: I felt a mixture of anger—a lot of anger—and emotional exhaustion about this today, as I’m sure many of you have, because we have been here so many times. And yet again, like clockwork, half the politicians in our country have little more to offer than thoughts and prayers.
We can't allow ourselves to become numb to mass shootings. What happened today in Minneapolis is heartbreaking, and Michelle and I are praying for the parents who have lost a child or will be sitting at their hospital bedside after yet another act of unspeakable, unnecessary violence.
Brutal. A humiliation ritual.
It’s always so easy to laugh at this, but it’s not funny. For 3hrs today, grown men & women all took turns getting down on their knees, fellating their dear leader. In front of the cameras. It’s sad. It’s gross. It’s North Korea. It shouldn’t happen here.
WTF...KING is wrong with people
Trump says immigrants must prove ‘good moral character’ — this from the guy who paid hush money to a porn star, stole from his own charity, and tried to overturn an election.
DEPLORABLE
Stephen Miller is completely full of shit, and he knows it. He's selling hatred of cities to people who do not live in cities and are scared of them.
Afraid of big cities? Then don’t come. ❤️ this video.
Governor JB Pritzker says he’s ready to fight back against Trump👇👇👇👇👇
Meiselas: Stop both-sidesing it, media. Stop trying to sow division within the Democratic Party when we literally have military invasions into American cities, aided and abetted by red state governors, who, again, are the takers who wouldn't exist without the blue states
Constituent: You talked about abuses in the medicare and medicaid system and I found interesting that the president pardoned someone that defrauded the medicaid system for $1.3 billion
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.
No lies told here.
The State of Illinois at this time has received no requests or outreach from the federal government asking if we need assistance, and we have made no requests for federal intervention.
Way to go, San Francisco!! 👏👏
NEW: Just had an amazing conversation with @joycewhitevance.bsky.social about Mr. Abrego, equitable jurisdiction, unclean hands, and the presumption of regularity. Check it out! www.muellershewrote.com/p/live-with-...
The reason politicians want you to live in fear of everything, is so when they want you to buy something, you will, and then they want you to die for something, you’ll sign up, and when they take power and control from you, you’ll say that it’s just for the best. They aren’t scared. They’re abusers.
Newsom: I mean, even poor Kid Rock — these guys, they’ve gotten a little precious, haven’t they? The folks at Fox are like, “Oh, this is so unbecoming of a governor. Oh, oh.” And meanwhile, they sit there reading his tweets every single day. Are they really that out of touch?
Nancy Mace: "In my time in Congress, I actually helped secure the largest infrastructure grant in state history, in South Carolina history. So I've worked very hard on the policies that matter to voters here." (Mace is taking credit for legislation she voted against!)
Do you have access to the EPSTEIN Files? Want to be inducted into the Whistleblower's Hall of Fame, be glorified in history as the Savior of Democracy & have an annual holiday named in your honor? All of this can be yours if you simply: #LeakTheEPSTEIN-Files!* *victim's names redacted, of course
Brown: In a state of 12 million people, half a million are going to lose their insurance. People didn’t vote for that. They didn’t vote for higher grocery bills. They didn’t vote for veterans’ benefits being slashed. They didn’t vote for any of this.
President Stubb: Some of the international media might wonder, "Why is the President of Finland here?" I think the reason is probably that we might come from a small country, but we have a long border with Russia, over 800 miles⤵️
Brett Meiselas: Newsom is giving Trump and MAGA a taste of their own medicine. And Fox, Republicans, and MAGA propagandists — they simply do not know what to do. They don’t know how to handle it. Newsom’s strategy here is working brilliantly.
"It's my expectation that Kristi Noem will be one of the first people hauled up to Congress shortly after the gavels change hands, to get a real understanding for the American people as to this conduct that has taken place." @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social joins @timmiller.bsky.social:
Heh! Under oath... which A.G.'s from 2006 to Garland would declare the same as Barr
“With less they beat slavery. With less they beat Jim Crow… Harriet Tubman didn’t have email, Twitter, Texts, TikTok…”
🔥
This would explain a lot.
🔥 “If I’m willing to drive three hours to come here and talk, I’m gonna ask you to get off your phone and listen to what I have to say.”
All you had to do was listen to her.
Any other U.S. President would be embarrassed & sickened if they got played by Putin in Alaska like Trump did. But when you realize that Trump works for Putin, that Trump is on Putin’s side, then you’ll understand why Trump isn’t embarrassed & sickened at all by what went down in Alaska.
Crow: "Look at what happened. US military personnel in uniform literally were on hands & knees rolling out a red carpet for the most murderous dictator of the 21st century...we keep on acting like Putin deserves to be brought out in open like any of head of state. This is a historic embarrassment."
Namaste 🙏
If you’re under any illusions about what an authoritarian personality cult the GOP has become, they’re not hiding it:
Folks we are having a lot fun fucking with MAGA over on Twitter. Esp now that Gavin is leading the way and Grok and Grok Imagine exists Re-join us and send me a DM over there and I’ll follow you back. The brave man is the one who fights even though he is scared." -Patton
A tale of two vibes.
WTF... Elections, pee tapes, deconstruction of America. Why not Ukraine ceasefire, maybe Epstein...
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."
New episode just dropped
WTF
Imagine if they’d had sandwiches. 🥪
Newsom: If California, one of the most un-Trumped states in America, is not successful, it’s at our peril. We may not get this back. I’m telling you, we may not. He is rigging this next midterm election before one vote is cast. He tried to wreck our democracy after the last vote was cast last time.
> @governor.ca.gov
The first time Charlie Chaplin used his voice in a film, he wielded it to forcefully condemn the rising forces of fascism around the globe. Will we listen to his words today?
#ProudBlue Stephen Miller can fuck all of the way off. Stephen Miller says DC is like Baghdad or Fallujah. The only war here is the GOP’s war on truth. Their plan to intimidate Americans isn’t working. We see through their bullshit.
Harry Enten: "This is an abject disaster for the president. Voters on Trump on inflation - look at where his net approval stands today on inflation. My goodness gracious! Into the gutter we do. H's 25 points underwater! ... the wrath the voters feel for Trump is transferring over to Republicans."
BS WTF'N... FAUX "news" GRIFTTER's Inc.
This will be Post Chump, because His Regime won't pay a dime for people to be smarter.....
If there is still an editor at the Washington Post who decided to publish the crap somebody wrote for that pile of shit Jeanine Pirro - and the editor is not already drunk at this hour - the editor should be fired
Trump once called himself "a big fan" of Putin. But his longstanding affinity for the iron-fisted leader of the Kremlin will be tested in Alaska at a high-risk, high-profile summit where he will face Putin's unwillingness to make peace in Ukraine. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/13/u...
This is sad. New video shows FBI, MPD, and DEA agents patrolling the streets of the Georgetown neighborhoods of Washington, DC, like it’s some kind of war zone. This isn’t a “crime emergency” — it’s pure political theater by Trump.
It’s gonna get a lot worse before it ever might get better. Ok. So we can quit, or we can fight. I choose to fight. You?
The President cannot commandeer any local law enforcement. The President does not run the Smithsonian. The monthly BLS jobs report is required by law. Release the Epstein files. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

NEW: Gavin Newsom makes major announcement
Since we passed the Affordable Care Act, Republicans have tried over and over to repeal it. And over and over, they’ve failed — in part because millions of people now depend on the ACA for quality, affordable health care.
