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.
Who voted for war with Venezuela?
Dear Americans, welcome to the thrilling game of ‘Did this dictator die or just disappear for a day?’ We’ve been playing it with Putin and Lukashenko for decades. Enjoy the suspense.
@LePapillonBlu2 Maya We are living in the dumbest timeline in human history. 😳
🙃 #GavinNewsom #EpsteinFiles
Garcia: “We finally heard from the Epstein estate. They’ve agreed to provide the actual Epstein book, along with other documents that haven’t been made public yet.”
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…

Television legend Stephen Colbert has just signed a $13.5 million deal with Netflix for a 7-episode series.
Psaki: Comer was a little slow to move forward with the subpoenas, at least in my view. Moskowitz: That’s actually his regular speed. He’s just a little slow in general.
Gov. Pritzker: “The president doesn't seem to understand that it's actually Republican states that have the crime problem. Of the 20 states that have the biggest crime problem, 13 of them are red states controlled by Republican governors.”
Mike Johnson dismisses the unpopularity of the Big Beautiful Bill: "The individual provisions of that giant piece of legislation are wildly popular." CNN host John Berman immediately debunks that claim.
BREAKING: Kilmar Abrego Garcia is has just asked a judge for a GAG ORDER against Kristi Noem, Pam Bondi and their subordinates.
Quigley: Trump acts like a tough guy when it comes to going after some undocumented kid, but when he comes up against someone tougher than him, this president is a wimp.
WATCH — @jessicatarlov.bsky.social : “If a Democratic president were doing any of these things you would be losing your mind.” 🎯
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.
🔥 @mizzwelch.bsky.social : “It’s the complete moral collapse of the 🇺🇸 government… the cabinet meeting with 3.5 hours of superficial praise is so cringeworthy… he redecorated the Oval Office like Marie Antoinette and built himself a ballroom because he has zero intention of leaving…”
He can't handle her, he never could. He's shitting his pants about her touring again, so he resorts to this petty & risky decision 😏
Hi, immunologist here: (a scientist who studies immune & inflammatory processes) RFK Jr is talking absolute bullshit when he says he can “see in kids faces that they have inflammation” That’s NOT how immunology works. He is an anti-science profiteer. Start calling him such.
Neil deGrass Tyson: "How sad it must be believing that scientists, historians, scholars, economists, journalists devoted their entire lives to deceiving you, but a reality-TV star proven in court to be a lying felon is your beacon of truth & honesty"
Everyone at the CDC is getting fired or resigning. RFK Jr. wants to ban all vaccines. His idiocy will get millions of people killed.
Welch: This is a guy who has redecorated the oval Marie Antoinette style and is building himself a ballroom because he has no intention of leaving.
"Ashli Babbitt was a grown ass adult who made a series of conscious, ill-advised decisions to engage in treasonous behavior, and she got exactly what she deserved. She was a traitor. She was a threat to national security. There is no nuance needed here."
NEW: Kilmar Abrego Garcia is asking a federal judge for a gag order against Kristi Noem, Pam Bondi and their subordinates. w/ @joshgerstein.bsky.social www.politico.com/news/2025/08...
"It's further eroding...the credibility of those who are in leadership positions in our military, that they would allow full military honors to someone who lost their life while committing the act of sedition." Michael Fanone discusses Ashli Babbitt with JVL:
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
FOX: *plays clip of Gavin Newsom pointing out that crime is higher in Louisiana than in California* FOX: Your response? MIKE JOHNSON: He needs to go an govern his state and not be engaging in this
Disgraceful.
Don’t look away
WHOOPSIE DOODLE
Welch: Everybody's missing the point here. The point is, he's doing this on purpose. He's priming the public to get accustomed to having the military in the streets
Welch: He claims that he's the law and order president. But we all know that's a lie because he's a convicted felon. He pardons convicted felons, he surrounds himself with obsequious people that kiss his all day, every day
Core inflation just hit its highest level in 6 months. Wholesale grocery prices up nearly 40%. Electricity up 10%. Does anyone remember what Trump promised would happen to prices once he was sworn in? I’m struggling to remember.
Where should we turn for valid medical information? CDC is out. I will be using Canadian and European sources if I need info on such things.
RFK Jr was not chosen to preside over US public health and science because he had any qualifications. He had a famous family name and Trump needed his endorsement and supporters. We saw it happen live in this call. That’s why we are here.
Here's some good news: Catelin Drey won a special election this week to flip a seat blue in the Iowa Senate and break Republicans' supermajority.
Vaccines are safe and effective. RFK Jr. isn’t.
Gupta: Here’s why this matters: 1. Because the FDA indications have changed, if I prescribe it to you, I’m opening myself up to a lawsuit. He directly signals that… 2. A pharmacist is no longer able to prescribe and administer a COVID-19 booster that doesn’t meet indications.
Our President keeps insisting prices are going to drop by 1400%, 1000%, or some other number that’s mathematically impossible. That he can’t do simple math isn’t the problem, it’s that he’s lying to America while things are getting more expensive because of his bad choices.
Micah Parsons to the Packers instantly makes them Super Bowl contenders. I don't care what they gave up: It was worth it.
Republican Congressman Barry Moore's constituents chant, "Who pays the tariffs?" at a town hall. bsky.app
Angus: I’m saying we need to start building progressive media that people actually listen to. I’ll give you an example: MeidasTouch. Wherever I go in Canada, working-class people listen to MeidasTouch because they talk about what’s happening in a practical way. They give facts.
Hannity’s “solution” after a church shooting where the gunman fired through the window? Metal detectors at every school. Definitely don’t talk about the guns.
i find this image so fascinating. it is both a literal example of authoritarianism but also a second-hand reproduction of the aesthetics of other authoritarian states. it's like a simulacra of authoritarianism whose purpose is to attempt to make the simulacra real.
I do not understand why government officials resign when asked to do something bad. The resignations will no longer be treated by the public like a scandal. It’ll be out of the news within 24 hours. People should stay and force the White House to fire them. Do not make it easy.
This is so clearly wrong — and it helps explain why Trump’s approval numbers are in the toilet. Anyone who thinks this young woman deserved to be treated this way can go fuck themselves.
Yes.
Just in case you forgot…
SMITE!
Lynx coach Cheryl Reeve on the Minnesota shooting: "The sad thing is we can't sit here and tell them that help is on the way. Because we're not going to do a damn thing about it."
Newsom: Perhaps the president could deploy the National Guard in every corner of Mississippi. Murder rate is out of control there. And the governor may want to make that phone call.
Massive walkout underway at CDC. RFK jr. must resign so that we can be safe.
Well, Trump IS a Russian asset — or, as I like to call him, Putin’s bitch.
Lisa Cook is challenging Trump's attempt to remove her from office based on what she says is "an unsubstantiated allegation" of mortgage fraud prior to her Senate confirmation as governor.
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.
He's gonna make kids go to work camps because he can atmospherically deduce chakra misalignment.
NEWS: Japan's top trade negotiator Ryosei Akazawa CANCELS his visit to the United States this week. (Kyodo)
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.
There are no words that will heal the pain of this community.
CHAOS ERUPTS AT CDC CDC Director Susan Monarez has been ousted after RFK Jr. demanded she change her policy on the COVID vaccine. Top officials from the Vaccine Unit, Zoonotic Division, and the Chief Medical Officer are resigning, per reports. Horrifying news for public health.
Moore: "The thing that gets me most about this is how deeply disrespectful this is to members of the National Guard who signed up for this job as I did when I deployed overseas & led paratroopers in combat where we signed up w/the expectation the commander in chief was actually taking it seriously"
Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024. This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500. Remember this before you order your next pumpkin spice latte.
Does he not remember Trump went to court over the census and lost trying to add a citizenship question?
Yeah, criminals are definitely stealing radios right out of new cars, that's absolutely something that happens today in 1987.
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
It isn’t just that JD Vance lies constantly. It’s that when he lies he does it with smugness, arrogance and condescension.
53 cities in Louisiana, Mississippi, Ohio, South Carolina, Tennessee and West Virginia had higher crime rates than D.C. in 2024. Despite this, these states deployed their own National Guard troops to help address D.C.'s newly declared "crime emergency."
Yup. He said it then Nutlick doubled down on it. America First!
Pritzker: Trump looked at the cameras and asked for me personally to say, Mr. President, can you do us the honor of protecting our city? Instead, I say, Mr. President, do not come to Chicago. Your remarks about this effort have betrayed a continuing slip in your mental faculties
Michaels: I have not had one single invite from a conservative news outlet. I have family members saying to me, “Well, why aren’t you talking to Megyn Kelly? Why aren’t you getting out there on Fox?” They’re not asking.
A pardon. @wutangforchildren.bsky.social
Gov. J.B. Pritzker (D) swiftly pushed back, saying Illinois never asked for federal troops and that Trump has no legal authority to unilaterally seize control of the Illinois National Guard. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
Trump’s “exoneration” from Ghislaine Maxwell blew up — she cleared everyone in Epstein’s orbit, making the whole thing look rehearsed and unbelievable. Also they want you to forget about Epstein altogether.
CNBC: So we should expect the US government to be taking more equity stakes in businesses around the country? KEVIN HASSETT: It's possible, yeah. That's absolutely right.
Illinois Gov. Pritzker vows to pursue Trump officials who participate in an illegal National Guard deployment to Chicago: "If you hurt my people, nothing will stop me - not time or political circumstance - from making sure that you face justice under our constitutional rule of law."
Bellows: The DOJ asked for the sensitive personal voter information — not just of me and Maine voters, but of every Secretary of State… Do we really want the Justice Department checking to see if you’re a Democrat or a Republican before they make a decision about who to investigate?
How about just some of those cheaper groceries that you promised on Day 1, Dementia Don?
Lutnick: "Think about this. We give hundreds of millions to each university. They take that money and they do research and they get patents. And you know who keeps them? The scientists and the university. And we who pay all the money, the American taxpayers, get nothing. This has got to change"
Lutnick on Rand Paul calling the Intel nationalism "a step toward socialism": "That is not socialism. I'll tell you what that is. That's the best businessman in the United States of America, in the Oval Office, doing fair things for us, the American taxpayers."
Weird — I was always taught that when a government seizes private business, that’s communism.
🤣🔊🆙 Repost please or quote. Just spread the truth 👍
1) ABC/NBC should lose license or pay hefty fees because their reporting is mean to him. 2) MD should maybe lose bridge repair funds because Wes Moore was mean to him. 3) The feds should investigate Chris Christie for Bridgegate because he was mean to him.
@buddahcjcc.bsky.social thank you for sharing this.
Pritzker: Over the last four years, we have seen homicides drop in half. That’s something the President should pay attention to. I know he doesn’t read but I know he watches TV so perhaps if someone from Fox or Newsmax is here
With a straight face.
Veterans to Union Station! Defend democracy. Resist authoritarianism.
This is 100% correct.
This guy, I swear.
Walz: "It boggles my damn mind that in the midst of a military takeover of our cities, the flaunting of the rule of law, that the press finds the need to talk about, 'Oh, there's a division in the Dem Party.' There's a division in my damn house & we're still married and things are good. That's life"
The people to talk to about this are Donald Trump and Howard Lutnick.
I’ve heard military law experts advise, if you are given an illegal command as a soldier, do not blindly obey. Call your attorney. Obeying an illegal command can result in a court martial.
Last week Trump said he likes the idea of starting a war so he can declare “no more elections” and stay in office forever. Today he just said “a lot of people” want “a dictator.” See where this is going?
