. Gavin Newsom 'seems to get it' ! Some audience members don't. 'Laughing off' tyranny is an invitation for enslavement ! Effective defensive/offensive leadership is imperative. .

Health workers at the CDC and other agencies have urged Health Secretary Robert F Kennedy Jr to stop spreading false information and harming public health. In an open letter to Kennedy and Congress, they called his statements "dangerous and deceitful." doi.org/10.1136/bmj...
Scientists have recorded a human embryo implanting in a womb in real time. The implications of how it happens could lead to more and better treatments for infertility.
🚨And now - an arrest for videoing police. Pretty sure this was a violation of rights when we had them. We owe these people their voices as much as the oppressors must be exposed.

MAGA needs us to be UNINFORMED.
OMFG
He is more than rolling back regulations. He is ordering the re-writing of past scientific reports on which national and international climate laws are based. This is Stalin. Period.
After we’ve discriminated against all immigrant, gay, transgender, disabled, female, and minority people, yet find the problems we blamed them for “are still staring us in the face….what next? All the atrocities of human history lurk in the answer.” Gov. Pritzker, Skokie, Illinois, Feb 19, 2025
BREAKING: We're filing a petition for the immediate release of Mario Guevara, a journalist who is being detained by ICE because of his reporting on law enforcement activity. The First Amendment is clear: Journalists cannot be detained for doing their jobs.
Dear Smithsonian.......send your historical records to Canada before they're destroyed.
Hey Netflix, now might be a good time to add Roots (1977 miniseries) to the livestream library. A dose of Kunta Kinte is what America needs right now. #history #remember #museum
White woman puts Mexican flag on her truck to waste ICE’s time.

“They did not die from COVID , they had preexisting conditions.” “They did not die from starvation, they had other health problems.” This is what eugenics sounds like.
Gavin Newsom’s late-night message to Fox
Wonderful things sometimes happen. Thanks to the Flager Sea Turtle Patrol, a multimillion construction project was halted for weeks because of two sea turtles.

A move to keep the money in the GOP faithful circle and away from scientists. Your right, we just took a step backward off into fascism hell.

“Through late June, according to the Cato Institute, 65 percent of the more than 200,000 people arrested by ICE since October 2024, the start of the current fiscal year, had no criminal history, and most of those who did were for minor offenses.” www.thebulwark.com/p/my-career-...

Brilliant protest sign from Alaskans this weekend.
To click on this link is to be forced to click that you understand that CNN will use your private information for its own purposes. I did not click. When did CNN start doing that?
A man who worked for the U.S. military in Afghanistan and his family could be eligible for asylum in Canada — but ICE won’t release them.
You are terrifying. There is something wrong with you. You are blocked.
Two different issues. Dem leaders need our support, yes. But Dem leaders are doing very little, given the massive change we are undergoing to an autocracy.
Totally don't agree. We need to bug our democratic leaders incessantly until they do something. Period.
What other politician has taken Newsom's rightly aggressive stance? I haven't seen a single one.

I vehemently disagree. He better NOT wear a tie tomorrow!
All of the military people who acquiesce to these fascist moves should be fired. Rounded up and fired.

He has always been a cowardly moron! Please do not tender him qualities he has never had! He is where he should be. On his knees.
We can’t lose sight of the damage SCOTUS is doing to our democracy. With Republicans in control of Congress and the White House, we must continue to build support for expansion, term limits and an enforceable code of ethics, @rachelrossi.bsky.social writes.

I disagree. He was always a morals-free moron. His own hometown hated him and did not vote for him. He is in his element.

As of now, the authoritarians are winning.
After judges from across the political spectrum found that Trump administration policies were likely illegal or unconstitutional, the Supreme Court has frequently reinstated those policies without any explanation. bit.ly/4mzvX0p

Another good one from the great Judge Young of Massachusetts:
Glad to hear it, Brits!
Grotesque.
I can’t help but notice the Wall Street Journal stopped getting Epstein leaks after Todd Blanche met with Ghislaine Maxwell and she was moved to a minimum security resort.
Glad to hear it, Brits!
Our new report connects the dots showing that the Trump administration has launched a campaign to undermine American elections. bit.ly/46ETsQp
Trump made 4,725 wire transfers to Epstein totaling over 1 Billion dollars.
It's not too late to send trump to Guatemala.

In a scathing new report, the US GAO found Trump, by canceling 1,800 NIH grants, violated a 1974 law. The GAO also found the Trump freeze of $8 billion in new and continuing NIH awards is also illegal. www.statnews.com/2025/08/05/g...
