Yesterday's Supreme Court decision endangers our communities and subjects people to immigration stops simply because of the color of their skin, occupation, or the language they speak. This fight isn't over. Our right to live free from racial profiling is fundamental.

Why would any foreign country invest in a nation that did this?

Bravo Banksy. 👏 “A new mural by elusive street artist Banksy has appeared on the side of the Royal Courts of Justice building in central London.”
"Trump Model Management" was worse than a farce: it was a front for trafficking children to rapists.

Release the Epstein Files! Trump lied again. I believe and support the WOMEN. Ghislaine Maxwell was found GUILTY of multiple sex trafficking charges and sentenced to 20 years in prison. Now Trump has given her ‘day passes from her new, comfy jail. go.bsky.app/4YuWWDj
🤣🤣🤣
"Tepid legality"
TAPPER: Is President Trump planning to go to war in Chicago? HOMAN: It's being taken out of context (Trump's post literally said "Chicago about to find out why it's called the Department of WAR")
"Fiscal responsibility" and all that. 🫠💀
A high-ranking Pentagon official told The Intercept Trump's strike on a boat in the Caribbean was a criminal attack on civilians. Two government officials said Pete Hegseth's rationale for the attack came together after the fact.
Sending troops to Chicago could cost $1.6 million per day, four times as much as housing the city's homeless — plus it's illegal! Full story: theintercept.com/2025/09/03/t...
Pentagon Official: Trump Boat Strike Was a Criminal Attack on Civilians A current DoD official and many military legal experts say the U.S. attack on a boat in the Caribbean near Venezuela broke international law. theintercept.com/2025/09/05/p...
Duckworth: "Let's make it clear -- the President of the United States essentially just declared war on a major city in his own nation. This is not normal. This is not acceptable behavior."
Good morning and happy Sunday to everyone. It's still the Department of Defense. Just like it's still the Gulf of Mexico. Just like the other place is still the Twitter. Just like he’s still in the Epstein files.
This is what Trump and RFK are ushering in.
Make the calls and Demand action from our so called elected officials on Capitol Hill. Remember What Trump is doing is a Distraction! He wants to take focus away from We the People seeing the unredacted Epstein Files! IMO Trump is scared Sh*tless and does not the Files to be released!
Make the calls to your Senators and Representatives! Demand Transparency on the Epstein Files! What Trump is doing is trying to Distract We the People. So make those calls do not be deterred in the words of a song of the 60’s “We will over come” the tyranny of Trump! The Whole World is Watching!

Trump. It's like the pantomime dame has been given the keys to the kingdom.
President “Grab ‘em by the pussy” and Vice President “I don’t give a shit.”
More than 85 scientists say that a recent U.S. Department of Energy report is full of errors and misrepresents climate science.
One of the most remarkable things of the last 9 months is how many Americans seem to believe the President is all powerful and Congress has no say. Actually Congress has been ineffective by choice. It has immense power if it had the courage to use it.
Got my new Covid vaccine today cuz facts, data and science.
There was never a plan to lower your grocery prices.
My Senator!
Just spoke with my CDC sources. They said RFK Jr. has ordered officials to hide tuberculosis cases, even as three active TB cases were just reported in Maine. He’s also suppressing bird flu reports. Pandemics don’t start with viruses they start with secrecy. RFK Jr. must resign now!
Thousands of protesters marched in Chicago on Saturday against U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and President Donald Trump’s plan to send National Guard troops and immigration agents to the city.
Blowing up a boat that allegedly had drugs in it and killing alleged gang members in international waters without any due process is pretty clearly not legal. Vice President of 🇺🇸: “I don’t give a shit” A lawless regime.
Draft-dodging coward posts A.I. image of himself in Vietnam.
thehill Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) is pressuring Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to resign after this week’s tumult at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) that saw top officials depart after the agency director was ousted.
I miss having a president who, without pause, loves his country and didn't declare war on an American city on a Saturday morning on social media. Just sayin'.
Rep. Quigley: It's time to watch what this president is doing. It's instructive in history to remember that, often tyrants are elected democratically at first….
Attempting to rig elections on his behalf. Turning the military on citizens. Toying with the idea of declaring martial law. Attacking political enemies and punishing those who speak out against his regime. If this were happening in another country, what would you call it?
That’s exactly what this feels like!
His military flyover of the Epstein Survivor's Press Conference was like when a little kid puts their fingers in their ears, saying "Nyah, nyah, nyah I can't hear you!"! Pathetic, hugely expensive & hilariously ineffective. #TerrifiedOfTheEPSTEIN_Files 😨
Yup, they’re definitely predators.

Business leaders are capitulating, but the people have been standing up and unmistakably rejecting Trump’s authoritarianism. Everything Trump and the GOP are doing, gerrymandering and manufacturing crises, is because they know they’ve lost the people—and will likely lose the midterms.

West Point canceled awarding Tom Hanks and RFK Jr. now hiding tuberculosis cases. There's a disease in this country, and it's called fascism.
I can’t wait for the NuremMaga Trials. This in NOT NORMAL! Stop SANEWASHING this.
Gov. Pritzker enlists the public's help: "What we've asked is that people pull out their iPhone or their Android phone and film what they're seeing. Take a video of everything so see so that we can know if, in fact, laws are being broken by these federal officials coming into our state."
"Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do to stop my simpleminded nephew from destroying your country."
I’ve spent a good chunk of my career relying on American science and engineering to keep me alive. Yesterday, RFK Jr. testified at the U.S. Senate Finance Committee. It was sad to see him try to destroy the life’s work of so many American scientists. He shouldn’t be in this job.
Reminder: At the start of his legal career, RFK Jr. failed the bar, was forced out as a D.A., and got arrested for heroin. Without the Kennedy name, that story ends there.
Gov. JB Pritzker on the National Guard in Chicago: "They are not allowed to do law enforcement. They can come into the city, but they they are restricted essentially to protecting federal buildings... that is legal, but they're not allowed to simply come into the neighborhoods."
North Carolina’s Sen. Warren Daniel didn’t even wait for a recess — caught trading stocks during session on the Senate floor. Corruption in real time.
Where are the red Make America Great Again hats out in the fields? You know, the same people who swore immigrants were “taking their jobs.” Keep snatching hard-working folks who are just trying to support their families and don’t be shocked when this becomes the new norm.
After hearing yesterday's #r4today lamentable interview from Ms Barnet I made a donation; it was the only possible response to the appalling coverage from Farage & cronies. RNLI are real life heroes; compare their coverage to that our sports ppl get. Just disgraceful.
Fuck JK Rowling pass it on

Not very old 😊
Priorities.
From the tense exchanges during the hearing, it was apparent that senators from both parties have realized that RFK Jr. is living in a world defined by activists who crusade against vaccines and, for that matter, the entire enterprise of public health science.
NEW: SCOTUS' unwillingness to explain itself while handing Trump a slew of far-reaching legal victories has drawn a flood of criticism from legal experts. Federal judges are fed up with it now, too. Here’s what they have to say👇
You had your chance to remove and bar him from the presidency after Jan 6. And you chickened out.

Logic
It’s really that simple.
Ossoff: He never should have been confirmed by the senate and he needs to resign. It is one thing to be a skeptic or a reformer. It is quite another to be a fool…
This is what lawlessness looks and sounds like
And Tice has similar properties in Trust avoiding UK tax. Seems what's good for the goose steppers is not alright for the socialists. Tice also jets to Dubai every 6 weeks to see his UK tax avoiding partner. He says Reform has scrapped the promises that returned a few MPs for a Truss budget.
Well, hopefully an investigative journalist will be trawling his girlfriend's financial affairs to see how she got the money to buy it. Maybe she bought for Nigel because he's such a fantastic guy 🤔
that’s ok cause he’s the man of the people .. the best con man we have
Not sure he should be commenting on Rayner when he has a history of tax ‘avoidance’ ‘evasion’ ‘reduction’ or whatever the right phrase is. www.theguardian.com/politics/201...
“Farage claimed last year to have “bought a house” in his constituency but the property is actually owned in the name of his partner, meaning he legally avoided higher-rate stamp duty on the purchase of an additional home – given he already owns other properties” www.theguardian.com/politics/202...
It’s important to keep in mind that Kennedy has no medical or scientific training—rather, he is a lawyer who has spent the last decade of his career working for the anti-vaccine organization.

Turns out, murderous dictators don’t trust murderous dictators. Go figure. 🤷🏽♂️
Dr. Susan Monarez, recently removed as director of the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, warned in a Wall Street Journal op-ed that the Trump administration is deliberately weakening the country’s public health and vaccine protections. This is a danger that should concern us all.
This is very accurate
Wyden on RFK Jr: "This committee's unwillingness to swear in this witness is basically a message that it is acceptable to lie to the Senate Finance Committee about hugely important questions like vaccines."
