He may be alive, but he’s definitely not well.
Trump’s plan to rename the Department of Defense as the Department of War shows (once again) that his self-characterization as the “pro-peace” candidate was complete bullshit. www.wsj.com/politics/nat...
ALL TRUMP HAS ARE DEFLECTION & DISTRACTION. TRUMP IS A CHILD RAPIST. TRUMP IS A RAPIST. TRUMP IS A PEDAEOPHILE. RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES.
"The straw man being put forward is that it's either we have the military or we're going to get our throats cut at night in DC. Is there no middle ground? Do local law enforcement account for nothing? We've got the National Guard GARDENING right now in DC. Is that an efficient use of our resources?"
Philadelphia DA, Larry Kramer tells Americans that the potus cannot pardon someone prosecuted & convicted in a State Court! So, if anyone shows up in his city on orders by the federal gov’t, and they start breaking ANY laws, he WILL go after them (and this includes ICE agents! 👍👍👍
Look at this graph. The share of national income going to the richest 10 percent was lowest (and share to lower 90 percent highest) when union membership was at its highest. As unions have weakened, inequality has widened. This is why we must build back union power.

Governor Pritzker asked for Proof of Life yesterday.
He disappeared for 10 days last year, after the Epstein docs were released, then held a rally in which he staged a mock assassination (with photo ops and 2 dead people) to divert attention from Epstein. So get out the popcorn.
A malignant narcissist who has had a mic in his face every day for months suddenly doesn't have a mic in his face and is avoiding it? Yeah, something is going on.
This is the answer to disappearing pedo president
He won’t let the press anywhere near him. This is getting weirder and weirder.
Michael Moore: "Because the numbers don’t lie. There are only 800 billionaires in this country, 6 million millionaires and 160 million of you reading this right now who are living from paycheck to paycheck and literally cannot afford the rent." What we can do with our numbers? Read the pinned post.
Visualise this every time you go to sleep. Remember how you feel when you get up and realise the difference.
Think medical insurance companies deny too many claims already? Trump's bringing in AI "death panels" to supercharge the process! AI gets paid based on how many Medicare claims they reject. Automated cruelty. They're turning healthcare into a video game where killing old people scores points.
The crazy lunatic who every member of his own family warned us about.
California can fix this. California Center for Disease Control & Prevention Hire all that have been fired. We did it with stem cell research, we can do it now with this. It will also juice California's economy big time.
What’s wild to me: NOW, media outlets & medical organizations are “stunned” by the damage RFK Jr. is doing to CDC, other health agencies, & public health. Me & my colleagues have been screaming about him for years. Years. Even more so in the last year. We were called hyperbolic. 1/

What show was he hosting?
Quick scan shows a number of dubious or unsubstantiated claims posted by that account. Plus, not a single reply by "James" to another's posting.
Media should hound him at least half as much as they hounded Biden. But they won’t.
Clean energy isn’t “woke.” It’s an essential part of our energy future and saves us all on power bills. This administration’s war on offshore wind and solar is just going to raise Americans’ utilities.

#NYC baseball coach confronts ICE child predators. “There's only one way to get into the cage, so my whole thing was I can control that. I was in front of the entrance and that's when I just said, you know, I may die here, but they will not take one of these kids." www.wcpo.com/politics/imm...
He can pretend to be dead all he wants. I still want the Epstein files released.
Why do you appreciate unions? I’ll start: Weekends off Paid vacations Work breaks Sick leave Paid holidays No child labor Safer working conditions Health care and retirement benefits
New Mexico is overriding the federal government on the topic of COVID19 vaccines to ensure their residents can access them. States hold a tremendous amount of public health power. They should use it.
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…
“ILLEGALS” MY ASS! Green card holder Rami Othmane speaks out after being snatched off the street by ICE while driving to the grocery store. He’s a documented immigrant and the husband of Dr Wafaa Alrashid, chief of staff at a local hospital. He was locked in detention for 13 days.
Countries are telling the Trump regime to fuck off. They aren't taking calls. They aren't returning calls. They are cancelling scheduled meetings. No one respects Trump and the clowns he employs. www.cnbc.com/2025/08/28/j...

An American was visiting relatives on their farm in the West Bank, when he was attacked and beaten by Israeli settlers, who then blocked an ambulance for 3 hours, to ensure his death. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j...
Damn, did he give up ALL OUR SECRETS THE FIRST NIGHT.?
This is state murder, as Israel confirms that it deliberately killed a journalist in Gaza known for his front line coverage. Not a word from the Trump regime...they clearly are not concerned with state-sanctioned murder of journalists. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/a...
In a dramatic shift from 50 years ago, Republicans in Congress overwhelmingly attended nonelite universities for undergraduate and postgraduate studies. Almost half of Democrats graduated from an Ivy League or an elite university, new research found.

We are so fucked.
How about Canada cancel the F-35’s they were supposed to buy and you can pick up one for yourself real cheap? Canada will send Trump pictures of Saab JAS 39 Gripens they do buy.
Trump is ending the CDC’s drowning prevention program, arresting firefighters, deporting farm workers who do pest control, and reducing vaccine access. That’s flood, fire, pestilence & locusts. What other biblical plagues does he want? Rain of frogs? Rivers of blood? Angel of Death taking Don Jr?
If they were comfortable and unbothered they wouldn’t be gerrymandering like lunatics.
Republicans aren't running for office...their polls are dropping...their own base is mocking them and yelling at them at town halls... And yet they seem very comfortable and unbothered. Ask yourselves why?
My new favorite protest poster
I just found out they’re part of the crew from Mexico who always come over to help us. What a shame this country has become.
8750 acres burning 20 miles from my house, tribal firefighters being hassled by masked mercenaries, asked for their "papers", are we living in 30's Hitler Germany, Franco's Spain, Lenin's USSR?
Convicted felon, Donald Trump, is on a crusade to hurt Americans because there isn’t any other reason to explain why he is making immigration checks of firefighters who are IN THE MIDST OF BATTLING WILDFIRES a priority. Trump makes America less safe everyday.
Republican Senator Joni Ernst of Iowa plans to announce she will not seek reelection in 2026. She intends to retire after two terms and move to the private sector. Ernst has served since 2015 and was a top Republican leader. Several Democrats have already entered the race.
President Trump’s executive order mandates classical architecture for federal buildings to inspire and reflect traditions from Ancient Greece, Rome, and the Renaissance. Interestingly, this style was also adopted by Nazi Germany under Hitler to symbolize power. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...
A federal judge ordered the Conway School District in Arkansas to remove all Ten Commandments displays from classrooms and libraries by August 29, 2025, following a lawsuit challenging the state law requiring the displays. The court ruled the law likely violates the First Amendment.

Make work project. They really don’t mind burning your tax money on idiotic theatre.
They’re painting the United States side of the wall black. Not both sides; just the US side. Read that again.
I must have missed all the Law and Order SVU episodes where they didn't interview the victims and just asked the criminals what happened.
😂 She's running for governor and can't even get Mom's for Liberty to show up to a speech 😂
Trump isn't using crime data to decide where to send the National Guard. Trump is using election data to decide where to send the National Guard.
The orange fraud never paid his $200k Fulton County bond. He walked out on a cashless bond. Now he wants to ban them. RULES FOR THEE, NOT FOR ME.
The FBI just scrapped its decades-old bachelor’s degree requirement for recruits—and slashed academy training from 18 weeks to 8. What could go wrong? www.msnbc.com/msnbc/amp/sh...
