Dear Trump staffers: It would really help sell the whole thing if you were a bit less observant of traditional rules of grammar, punctuation, and casing in his social media posts.

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.

Right-wing billionaires who own the media are enabling the Trump regime’s authoritarian takeover. This is why it is so critical to support independent journalism right now. Traditional media is no longer a trustworthy source of information for the public to stay informed and fight against fascism.
Hey Ron DeSantis, you're gonna want to check out MeidasCanada tomorrow. We're taking the fight straight to you from Newfoundland. @charlieangus104.bsky.social
"Blueskyism" helped the Mississippi Free Press overcome algorithmic suppression on other platforms (Facebook, Threads) and ride out plummeting engagement on Twitter following Musk's X takeover. Thank God we took our eggs out of the X basket when we did.
JUST IN: Drew Ensign, on behalf of DOJ, reports that all of the migrant children have been returned to ORR custody.
RIP to a real one. I’ve always loved seeing him in anything, and even in minor roles, he carried movies like Green Mile on his shoulders
Portland, Maine crowd as Democratic US Senate candidate Graham Platner takes the stage today.
"Blueskyism" helped make The Onion one of the largest newspapers in the world in less than a year. If we had spent all of our time on Twitter, we'd be poorer, dumber and terminally ill with internet poisoning. He's just angry he's wasting away over there in a nazi agnostic lane that doesn't exist.
Moments ago, Trump returned to the White House after spending the day at his golf course.
IT’S HAPPENING! Floridians are painting rainbows around potholes 🌈 It makes rainbows proliferate. 🌈 It increases safety; dangerous spots are more visible. 🌈 And it exposes the absurdity of DeSantis ordering rainbows scrubbed away instead of fixing hazards that put drivers at risk. #RainbowRoad
2 weeks after being violently attacked & arrested. "Good job, Mayor Bowser. You're a Fascist, too.”
I don’t believe Rudy Giuliani was helping a “domestic violence victim” before his car crash. Not for one second.
Austin Labor Day: really catchy music and great energy! Really love the vibe!
I didn’t really need more evidence that RFK Jr is nuts and delusional.
If you're 60, 69.1% of all job growth since your birth occurred under Democratic administrations. If you're 45, that number is 74.7%. If you're under 28, the number is 100%. Happy Labor Day.
This week, Oversight Committee Dems are meeting with many of the victims of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. We will listen to their stories and continue our work to seek justice against anyone responsible for these horrific crimes.
It’s still early, but pretty good turnout so far for Bernie Sanders and Graham Platner’s (running against Susan Collins) rally here in Maine today.
Trump on the cover of French magazine Le Point. Translation: “Man from Moscow” Le Point is a major French weekly news magazine. It is considered a center-right / conservative-leaning publication.
Kressly: I expect in the next couple of weeks, this is going to get worse. You’re going to hear from the same administrative people who have gutted the expertise needed to promote child health — pushing false narratives like, “we need to look at the link between vaccines and autism.” That is a lie.
Nobody seriously claimed Trump was dead. But any serious person agrees he's sick and there is a coverup. This fiasco dragging out as long as possible is actually the ideal situation. The issue is the media covering for Trump. He has been heavily medicated for years and yet the press hounded Biden.
Those of us paying attention are in the real bubble
I’ve Had It x @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social drops tomorrow
Dead or alive, Rudy Giuliani brought “broken windows” policing to NYC. “Not only did broken windows policing fail to reduce crime, but it also provided cover for a deliberate targeting of Black and brown communities.” Why? The theory comes from rightwing think tankers
Republican Ronald Reagan shut down our nation's mental health facilities in the 1980s.
Yesterday we went grocery shopping and although the US berries were cheaper, we bought all Canadian grown at a higher price. We did get our money’s worth as the Canadian berries were beautiful. Sorry not sorry. 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦
So crime is down in DC if you don't count the extrajudicial ICE kidnappings, or the president pocketing public funds, imposing illegal tarrifs, deploying troops domestically, the theft of our financial data, the impounding of congressional approved funds, ignoring court rulings and 1000 other crimes

In the 2024 election 70% of GenX voters voted, which was higher than all age groups except boomers.
I'm here at the Haymarket Memorial in Chicago where folks are setting up for today's Labor Day rally and march. This will be the thread for that.
NEW: Judge Sooknanan is back at it. She orders DOJ to file at fifth status report to address whether the two children discussed in its previous report have been returned to ORR custody. Status report due at 12 noon today.
Why is the Draft Dodger-in-Chief trying to drag us into a war with Venezuela? The claim is that drug cartels are so out of control they’ve been designated an international terrorist organization, so we need to send warships. But we’re denying Venezuelan’s asylum claims who fled for their lives. 🤔
An upcoming news conference with victims of Jeffrey Epstein could be “explosive,” one of the congressmen pushing for full release of the files on Epstein predicts. Democratic Rep. Ro Khanna said the victims’ accounts will force lawmakers to vote on a bill requiring DOJ to release its files.
“But our march had done its work. We had drawn the attention of the nation to the crime of child labor…The Pennsylvania legislature passed a child labor law that sent children home from the mills, and kept others from entering the factory until they were fourteen.” www.thebulwark.com/p/labor-day-...
The false, explicitly bigoted “great replacement” conspiracy theory has inspired some of the biggest terrorist attacks in recent years, including in Christchurch, New Zealand and El Paso, Texas. Transnational white nationalism—oxymoronic, yes, but nevertheless real—is a top terrorist threat today.
Can the media STOP referring to Jeffrey Epstein as a “financier”? The money he made came from SEX TRAFFICKING MINORS, RAPING CHILDREN, and BLACKMAIL. He was NOT a financier. I’ve seen at least five stories from three outlets refer to him this way in the past week. This is the latest from the Times:
Why is the WH posting photos from earlier this year? Why does Trump have bruising on both hands? Why isn’t Trump talking to the press? Why is Trump taking three medications to prevent strokes and cardiac episodes? Someone is lying to the public. 25th Amendment now. #ProudBlueVoices4Victory
Whatever. You asked be for the source of the numbers and I gave you sources (there are many more similar sources), and then you dismiss the sources. So you just keep believing whatever you want to believe. Take care.

9 CDC Directors going back to 1977 speak out. What RFK Jr has done to our nation’s public health system "should alarm every American." It "is unlike anything we have ever seen at the agency, and unlike anything our country has ever experienced." www.nytimes.com/2025/09/01/o...
I'm referring to % of each gen. that voted for Trump and still supports Trump. Gen X leads the way. 56% of Gen X voted for Trump - higher even than boomers (51%): www.pewresearch.org/politics/202... 50% of Gen X still approve of Trump, again highest of any age group: www.cbsnews.com/news/young-p...
If like me you missed it the first time you viewed this vid, someone is throwing something out a White House window. Beyond odd.
Too bad, since Gen X is the biggest Trump-humping generation.
"Here's what some say" is so much bullshit posing as journalism.
Orlando Florida Special Election Tomorrow Put your protests into action!
The last time Donald Trump showed his face live in front of the press was Tuesday, August 26th, during a marathon three-hour cabinet meeting. Maybe all that staged roundtable praise from his sycophants was too much for him.
Shame on them for participating in the terrorizing and intimidating of their fellow Ameticans through military force.
I pray that Trump stays alive until after this important event.
It's official. The books that I wrote arrived. I am an author y'all. I AM AN AUTHOR. A childhood dream I never thought could happen is happening!!!!!! 🥹 In 15 days, #TheDoubleTax is coming to a doorstep, bookstore, and library near you. Please pre-order by 9/16: annagifty.com! #booksky #blacksky
BREAKING: Looks like Rudy Giuliani was NOT helping a DV victim at the time of the accident. Article states troopers & firefighters, already on the scene for a separate domestic violence incident across the interstate, witnessed the crash and rendered aid. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...
“The officers followed the driver…and wrote in the affidavit that they smelled “a strong odor of burned marijuana” while driving behind the car.” On the highway? At a high (no pun intended) rate of speed? More jacked-up federal police performing forTrump www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...
What is going on here?
The former special agent says Kash Patel’s cut-rate training and lowered hiring bar has put national security at risk.
He won’t let the press anywhere near him. This is getting weirder and weirder.
Here Missouri goes again, with our legislature and governor thinking they are above the law. They already overturned laws supported by 2/3 of voters. Now they want to suppress those same voters. Most corrupt state in the nation!
Trump and his team had children sitting on planes ready for deportation - until a judge stepped in and stopped it
Joining an increasing number of people publicly demanding RFK’s removal as HHS Sec: Dr. Bill Foege, a literal (6’6”) & figurative giant of public health. He served as a CDC director under Carter & Reagan, & is credited with designing the ring vaccination strategy that enabled smallpox eradication.
Cleveland’s mayor wants Democrats to know millennials like him are impatient and ready to lead. Justin Bibb says Democrats need to listen more to mayors. They see the impact of federal policy first-hand.
If @gavinnewsom.bsky.social / @govpritzker.illinois.gov and other @democrats.org wish to spark Trump, a deluge of attention to the “Profound Stupidity of Donald Trump” is guaranteed to do so. Then riffing to ineptness, venality, & perversion (#EpsteinFiles) www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...
Guys, this isn't funny. That's his table-bussing arm. Now Sorbo's gonna snag all the good brunch shifts.
Rs, before the Trump cult took hold, frequently railed (rightly so) against communist and fascist regimes that nationalized industry, indulged in crony capitalism, and substituted propaganda for free speech. (The five-year plan is working!) How times have changed. open.substack.com/pub/contrari...
We are pumped to be launching @meidascanada.ca today. Our first Meidas Canada townhalls take place this weekend. Charlottetown is sold out but there are still a few tickets available for the official tour launch in North Rustico PEI. The revolution starts now. @meidastouch.com
This is the provision Ensign cited as the basis for the government's authority to summarily remove unaccompanied migrant children. I’d love to hear from immigration lawyers, but having briefly looked at it… it’s so frivolous it’d be laughable if it weren’t so cruel. (Am I wrong??)
QAnon memes were not a small part of what mobilized Trump’s January 6th mob. Ignoring this is a dangerous mistake and we are making it twice.
And that's a real ally.
America 2025: the dumbest country in the world.
All because of a mad king and an entire party of cowards and traitors The GOP must be abolished for good #nokings #nopedophiles #nomazis #defenddemocracy
Graham Platner, an oyster farmer from Maine, announced a bid for the seat of incumbent GOP Sen. Susan Collins. His goal? To “claw back wealth that was created by the labor and the consumption of working class Americans who have not shared in the riches they helped build.”
Just sayin’.
Well done MAGA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Local outlets have been reporting on these exact same community efforts in Los Angeles over the last few months, and it’s heartening to see that folks on the ground in DC have taken notice and are taking similar action for themselves and their neighbors.
Only half?? Remember - the internet reaches the whole world I would say 90% #nokings #nopedophiles #nomazis #defenddemocracy
Is this the same guy who attended Jeff Bezos' wedding, which itself was a major climate-destroying event - not to mention how Bezos' company is destroying the climate in numerous ways?
Where is the mainsteam media? Anyone out there? Can you hear me???
This is starting to feel even more suspicious www.aol.com/jd-vance-fle...
Around 10 ICE agents showed up at Malcolm X Park to detain an unarmed man peacefully sitting on a bench. Wouldn't it be great to see them raking leaves instead of harassing innocent, harmless people and using the National Guard for free maintenance labor? What a total disgrace. #OnYourSide
Just basking once again in the wonder and glory of this one.
Yes that's very odd. Also, according to police reports, Giuliani never mentioned anything about helping the woman to the police. Why not, when it seemed central to the story his people put out in the press release?
So, the woman whom Giuliani was helping was on the southbound side of Interstate 93. But the car in which he was injured was on the northbound side. And this all happened in the dark of night. www.concordmonitor.com/2025/08/31/r... www.nytimes.com/2025/08/31/u...

I'm not an expert on this but I think a first step is that lawyers who are members of the same state bar as Ensign need to file complaints about Ensign with the state bar assn.
By the time DOJ files this status report, Judge Sooknanan will have been awake for nearly 20 hours.
I'm still waiting for the relentless onslaught of media demands for a press conference and calls to resign.
"Just following orders." That's the sane excuse all the German Nazi soldiers gave after WWII.
The puzzle site masquerading as a newspaper fails once again.
Ossoff voted for the bill to bless this corruption with the veneer of legality. He left his newborn baby to cast the vote. Critique must be matched with action.
My favorite sentence in the New York Times explainer on Mamdani and socialism.
