Absolutely Abso-DAMN-lutely 💯
I bet Putin has the Epstein files. What do you think?
I remind him every chance I get.
Do you remember? YES or NO
Why haven't the Epstein Files been released? For the same reason those who decline to answer questions never want you to hear the answers.
That means he's signed on to Trump's crimes and validated them and is effectively a co-conspirator. We should not at all gild the lily here or pull our punches. This man is enabling a trafficker in human beings. Their crimes are his crimes.
I agree with Glenn Thrush. Roberts has been a major enabler and contributor for Trump.
How does he say something like that with a straight face. He is not stupid. He thinks we are stupid?
Nobody at Harvard Law bothered to ask him how deep his extremist ideology went. Perhaps that should be on the psych eval before graduation?
lol Arsonist wary of getting close to the forest he burned down
Because granting a president total immunity is not entering the political fray!
Exactly
John Roberts doesn’t enter politics - he just quietly tilts the entire playing field.
Feed your child's desire to learn new things with resources from your neighborhood library.
If the U.S. military isn't going to release details on the justification for killing 11 civilians in a civilian boat who weren't posing a threat to anyone, then we have to conclude the "justification" is: the U.S. military is willing to kill civilians to give Trump social media content.
"Today, we met and heard the stories of the victims of Jeffrey Epstein. What they revealed is not only the trauma of hundreds of young women, but a coverup of epic proportions involving the wealthy, the well-connected, and even our own government - ALL THE WAY TO THE TOP."

This is why the mainstream media is of no use. My TV stays off most days. I'll be looking to cancel some stuff off of my cable bill and might just take it down to the internet

Pritzker on Trump sending troops into cities: "He has other aims other than fighting crime... he would like to stop the elections in 2026 or frankly take control of those elections. He'll just claim there's some problem with an election and then he's got troops on the ground that can take control."
Cartoonist Rob Rodgers captures it. #epstein
Government Efficiency!!
They’re busy being apologists for the “president”
Where you at @peterbakernyt.bsky.social @ericlipton.nytimes.com?
I’d put Murdoch, Ailes and Gingrich very very far up that scale.
There have been few people - including Trump - more actively damaging to the project of American democracy than the Sulzberger clan.
I’m confused why we don’t have articles out now confirming his Parkinson’s and dementia. It’s been a year. Surely it’s gotten worse.
One of Biden’s biggest mistakes in office was not immediately suing the NYT and the Sulzberger family personally for a financially annihilating amount of money the second this shit was published.
Remember when Biden stumbled on his bike? They lit up the web with that shit. Can you imagine Trump even getting on a bike? Like. At any age. Not just now. I don’t think Trump can ride a bike. Sure as fuck can’t now. Also, he hates dogs. Just saying.
Highly unlikely
The lies' laughable implausibility is a feature, not a bug. They're not trying to convince discerning, skeptical, fact-based people. They're trying to give supporters a fantasy that validates their feelings and creates a sort of loyalty test, while flaunting the absurdity in everyone else's faces.
IT'S OFFICIAL. I WROTE MY FIRST BOOK! 🤯 #TheDoubleTax unpacks the cost of being a woman, why the bill runs higher for women of color, and how closing the gaps moves us ALL forward. #blacksky #booksky #econsky PRE-ORDER NOW: tinyurl.com/doubletax-or... Get Involved: tinyurl.com/doubletax-join
They don't give a damn. It was all a part of the plan.
I have a lot to say about this and an op-ed is forthcoming, but all I will say is the "exit" of 319,000 Black women is no accident when you understand the barriers Black women face in the workplace. Once again, if folks want to talk to me about this, my line is open. tinyurl.com/doubletax-pr
Today in the @nytimes.com, one of the most important stories of our time. Between the months of February and July, 319,000 Black women exited the workforce. In the same period, White men saw the largest increase in jobs- 365,000. This is #TheDoubleTax. Pre-order: annagifty.com. #blacksky
not just that he has no constitutional authority, there isn't even any particular legal or institutional mechanism by which the president can make anyone treat this as anything other than a weird advisory opinion.
@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.”
This explains WHY tariffs are a big deal personally for him! Never been about bringing jobs back to America or making it better for us! Always about making HIM more money on a personal level. l.smartnews.com/p-66HixCJW/J...
Well, we know his team reads social media, because this proof of life moment was well choreographed. The coat on a hangar is a nice touch. Hides his shuffling legs.
Can we lie like he does and tell him if he taxes the rich, fires his whole cabinet, and a whole lot more he will get into heaven?
Either way sure would be cool to get this trending… #TrumpLooksLikeShit
Yep
Hello, everyone. Today, thanks to @sbg1.bsky.social and @newyorker.com, I learned a new word. The word is: "butt-snorkeler."
the thing that's so fucking infuriating about this is how much more that matters for the bottom 10% $1200 can be life or death at that level of income top 10%? $13K is nice, to be sure, but it's "maybe we'll take another vacation" nice not "oh good now we can afford to eat this month"
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
The year is 2025. AI is killing the planet, poisoning the air and people's minds. Greedy corporations are bent on profit and power. An unlikely hero is chosen to travel back to 1964 to stop Joseph Weizenbaum from creating the prototype of this nightmare. Coming this Christmas: Terminator: ELIZA
to say this man has shit for brains would be an insult to shit
Oct 25 2024–Kamala Harris: “Donald Trump’s name appears at least 300 times in Project 2025, and it is a blueprint, a detailed blueprint that is about the danger and the detail of what Donald Trump and his allies plan if he is in the White House again.” 👇
All those Kennedys that @nymag.com detailed in their angst and whatnot could be running to microphones tonight, or really any night in the last 8 months. You know, instead of pulling a Susan Collins.
As if you needed another reason to be angry at RFK Jr. today: There are signals he wants to blow up the "liability shield" that has kept the U.S. vaccine industry strong for the last forty years (and has sped payments to harmed patients). Hugely dangerous. www.thebulwark.com/p/hhs-kenned...
Q: “Are you worried all this pushback could provoke Trump to follow-through with sending the National Guard?” MAYOR @brandon4chicago.bsky.social Johnson: “As a descendant of slaves, can you imagine if my ancestors had that same rationale?“
I hope video like this keeps Pootles up at night www.youtube.com/watch?v=eSrh...
Hey, Dr. Cassidy! How much more chaos needs to happen before you admit RFK was a horrendous error and demand he resign? Will it take a COVID outbreak? Dead unvaccinated babies? #Pinks #ProudBlue New C.D.C. Director Resists Ouster as Other Officials Resign www.nytimes.com/2025/08/27/h...
I've just seen the video. Used to be a copper and honestly I wouldn't even have bothered running after him. I mean... his loss of a perfectly decent sandwich is punishment enough 🤣
I bet he was called before the grand jury and torpedoed the case so he wouldn't have to testify in open court.
He was all set to testify to the lifetime of trauma this caused him. “I can only eat tacos now. Maybe a calzone (crying)… maybe.”
Not only is the deployment of American troops into major cities a waste of hundreds of millions of dollars that could be better spent investing in local law enforcement and crime prevention programs, but it’s also a drag on local economies. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/23/d...

It’s outrageous that Sec. Kennedy is trying to fire the CDC Director — after only a few weeks on the job — for her commitment to public health & vaccines. The Sen. HELP Committee must hold a hearing with Kennedy & the CDC Director as soon as possible. Vaccines save lives. Period.
Yeah, America land of the free and Home of the Brave sure right. Man, we are going down the tube so fast.
But nobody who supports him cares about the things he says or does that are patently unethical and illegal.
He wants martial law so badly that he is trying to provoke the reasons for it.
It’s been 105 years since the certification of the 19th Amendment, which granted women the right to vote. Today, we must recommit to protecting the right to vote and pushing back against efforts to disenfranchise Americans by passing the John R. Lewis Voting Rights Advancement Act.
The military is not a police force, and should never be deployed in American communities against their will. That the President doesn't understand this (or simply doesn't care) shows just how grossly unfit for office he is.
Whew! Sen. Susan Collins should be “very concerned” She showed up as the main guest at a ribbon-cutting in Searsport, Maine. It backfired. The crowd was not happy to have her: “Shame. Shame. Shame.”
Executive dysfunction check-in... You need to move your laundry to the dryer (don't worry about putting it away if you don't have the energy ❤️) Don't forget to pay the bill that's buried in that giant pile on your desk (it's ok to leave the pile there 💙)
That brings a smile 😃 to my face.
Graham Platner: "Susan Collins has been in the Senate for almost 30 years... People know that she's a self-interested politician who has tried to play this charade for many years about how she tries to be a moderate... Everybody sees this for what it is."
The Iowa Senate seat that Democratic candidate Catelin Drey flipped tonight has been in GOP hands for 13 years. Not anymore.
The national guard are the most easily used & abused branch of the military by GOP administrations. I suspect it's because they come from less privileged circumstances. I suspect that the national guard has the lowest number of trump supporters compared to other branches. They aren't loving this.
I agree ☝️ good opportunity to talk with them. Trump et al, billionaires are the enemy
As the mother of a man who just enlisted a couple of months ago in the military, (staunchly not pro 🍊) he intends to uphold his oath, help United States citizens, and not harm them. I suspect these people may be NG who’ve spoken up and asked for duty other than participating in 🍊lawlessness.
This will be the most important resistance. If we can make the Guard feel we are on their side and they are on ours, then we can make Trump powerless. They'd probably appreciate some bottled water on hot days. And I am hoping they prefer trash pickup to standing around guarding the ICE monsters.
I know this comment will get attacked, but these guys are ripe for citizen influence. Striking up a conversation to encourage them to resist where they can. The NG is not the enemy; it is the ICE goons/DHS that are doing the kidnapping/beating etc. The NG is not masked and have their name/ID visible
2016 Donald Trump Chicago rally protest - Wikipedia share.google/fTeck98Bc6He...
So the guy who wants the Nobel Peace Prize and claims to end wars wants to call the DoD the War Department? Mmmkay.
When Trump ran against you, he tried to have a rally in Chicago. The people of Chicago showed up outside of the rally they were not inside his ass never took the stage. If I'm not mistaken, he didn't even leave the airport. He has been mad at Chicago and Illinois ever since.
This is how you stand up to bullies and aspiring tyrants.
the irony of the flag situation, in my opinion, is that the worst thing you could actually do to it is pretend that this guy represents it
#WannabeDictator
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

This hits right on time… My wife and I had the great privilege of visiting the African-American Museum in DC, and let me just tell you if you have not been…It is a masterpiece—go.
Starting to think it's a bad idea to elect politicians who hate people.
They just move the timeline to fit their lies.
Whoopsy
But it's accurate.

The move where he’s dragging off an unconscious naked victim, is called a “Pete Hegseth”.
How humiliating 🤦🏼♀️
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.
I wanna know where they're hiding their swastikas? 🤨👇🏼
