Mike Johnson refuses to put up a plaque honoring Capitol Police’s sacrifice on Jan. 6. Yet, Ashley Babbit’s family gets a $5M settlement & a full military honors funeral for her being part of a riotous mob trying to break into the House chamber. This country’s so fuct thanks to GOP enablers.
I like the rebrand.
MO Gov Mike Kehoe is calling a special session to gerrymander the 5th District which encompasses Kansas City. He is specifically violating Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, which bans any voting practice that denies or weakens the power of a racial minority to elect its preferred candidates.
Would you want your mother taken without cause or due process? Elsy Noemi Berrios is a mom, a worker, an asylum seeker. ICE must grant her a day in court. #DisappearedInAmerica #AbductedByTrump
More than 1,000 protests are scheduled today all across America. Large crowds will be standing up to the Trump regime, and joining major unions for “Workers Over Billionaires” events. More here:
“Netflix stepped in May, inking a deal for the show beginning with this year’s new season, also striking an unusual arrangement that will see new episodes become available on PBS the same day they premiere on Netflix, ensuring wide availability of the show.“ 👏
Netflix picked the side of democracy, the right side.
Netflix just gave Gavin Newsom 2 million for the redistricting fight and made a deal with Sesame Street. New episodes will air there and the backlog of old episodes will Be free to watch. Netflix picked a side. I will keep my subscription.
maybe its just jealousy of success that hardwork and education can do for you instead of single syllable vapid slogans
hmmm guess its time for vasectomys instead.
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.
drunk driving, anyone?
You’re ignorant if - you believe that the government is ‘chipping’ you with vaccines. You’re a ignorant if - you think that the mRNA in a vaccine is manipulating your DNA. You’re a ignorant if - you believe that vaccines cause autism. Vaccines are safe and effective! Vaccines cause old age.
"She did not die defending the Constitution. She died trying to overturn it. She was not protecting lives at a gate in Iraq; she was forcing her way through windows in the Capitol to stop the peaceful transfer of power." New from @markhertling.bsky.social:

CHICAGO…
Father Michael Pfleger, a priest for more than 50 years, said this about Trump: “Look into your mirror and address the violence coming from the White House ... of cutting Medicare/Medicaid … address the violence of refusing to ban assault weapons.” More here: www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/trumps-det...
For those unaware: RFK Jr has been spreading anti-vaccine lies for over 20 years. This is not new. This is not “since COVID.” He wrote a 2005 article in Rolling Stone blaming vaccine ingredients for autism. Be aware of this history. He is a millionaire because of the disinformation HE created.
Gov. Gavin Newsom revealed this week how world leaders privately view Trump: “They’re laughing behind his back. He’s being played everywhere. It’s an embarrassment.” It sure is. More here: www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/trumps-det...
So not only do churches NOT have to pay taxes, they're going to get YOUR tax dollars to boot. This seems like oh, I don't know, government establishing a religion in violation of the First Amendment?
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.
When a president decides to disregard the will of the American people, you’re right, that’s the mark of authoritarian rule. The White House has notified Congress that it plans to cancel $4.9 billion in foreign aid funding that lawmakers had already approved, doing so without their consent.
that is a sunbaked brain right there
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"
The damage this man has done is incalculable.
"January 6 survivor and former MPD Officer Michael Fanone launches a campaign demanding that federal officers remove their masks, advocating for transparency." Check out our new D.C. campaign demanding federal agents take off their mask! @ofthebraveusa.bsky.social www.wusa9.com/article/news...
The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.
Excellent question.
The Department of Homeland Security is reportedly barring states and organizations that receive government funds from helping undocumented immigrants. This will make it harder for the most vulnerable people to get help in the aftermath of disasters. It was always about cruelty.
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.
BREAKING: Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey JUST CALLED FOR a statewide and federal ban on assault weapons. Who’s with him?
“Taylor Swift has multiple Grammys. Her Eras Tour added nearly $5B to the U.S. economy. She quietly donates to food banks in every city she visits. Her lyrics are studied at the world’s top universities, not because she’s famous, but because she’s brilliant” Raise your kids to be like TaylorSwift.
I did promise that Republican states that capitulate to Trump's demands to illegally gerrymander their maps will be sued. And history shows I never bluff and usually win. I also said that there are only two types of GOP officials -- proud MAGA and scared MAGA. That is true.
It's possible ... hear me out, here …. It may well be that these people lie their asses off whenever they exhale
It's time to remove Robert F. Kennedy Jr from government before he kills us all
Robert Kennedy asked a journal to retract a paper that demonstrated that the aluminium in vaccines causes no harm. The journal refused (eg no autism). The demand was an attack on science. Scientists have to accept results even if they go against their ideas or prejudices.
I have a dream… That one day people will care about children the way they care about embryos.
“oh hey did you hear that one shooter is tra—“ armed federal agents are occupying my city and setting up checkpoints where they abduct random people delivering food and arrest men for the crime of being black please don’t stop talking about dc
Whatever I had imagined the assault on public health and vaccines would look like under RFK Jr. is a lot worse. So many people are going to die as a direct result of the systematic destruction of our public health agencies. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/27/h...
Landlords say they can’t afford a rent freeze, but have $2.5M to give to Cuomo. Reminds me of corporations that spend millions to bust unions instead of just raising wages and offering benefits. Doing the right thing is always cheaper than the cost to block it.

Shuler: They want to convince people that we are each other’s enemies—that we need to fight one another to land a good job, to find a home in a safe neighborhood, that only so many of us can live with dignity at the same time. But we are not each other’s enemies. We are each other’s neighbors
there aren't
Sen Patty Murray (D-WA): “If there are any adults left in the White House, it’s well past time they face reality… We cannot let RFK Jr. burn what’s left of the CDC and our other critical health agencies to the ground—he must be fired.”
🚨BREAKING: California Supreme Court DENIES Republicans’ petition asking the court to stop state officials from putting a redistricting measure on the ballot – the second GOP challenge to the state’s redistricting it’s thrown out in one week. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
to see all of the European leaders stand together in that moment will be remembered for generations.

Well isn’t this lovely. Opera star sings Habanera (from Carmen) in the airport (?) What a terrific voice. #opera I don’t care if they’re staged, we need more profl free public #music and #art.
he is insane
!!!!
Psaki: I felt a mixture of anger—a lot of anger—and emotional exhaustion about this today, as I’m sure many of you have, because we have been here so many times. And yet again, like clockwork, half the politicians in our country have little more to offer than thoughts and prayers.
#NIH is hanging by a thread. The #CDC has been decimated. #RFK Jr. and Russell #Vought are psychopaths--I don't say this frivolously--they are cold, calculating, inflicting violence on millions through public policy. It is where we are right now. These men are not normal. 1/

Dr. William Foege, 89, who helped end smallpox in the 1970s, recently wrote: RFK Jr.’s “words can be as lethal as the smallpox virus.” And his actions are more lethal still. He’s waging war on America. That’s an impeachable offense. He must be removed from office. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/27/h...
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.

Massive Ukrainian drone attack now taking place across the whole of occupied Crimea. Multiple targets. Several jet-powered drones in action. #explodey
FUCK YEAH SCIENCE arstechnica.com/science/2025...
how could this have happened? he wonders as he publishes yet another shadow docket ruling trying to destroy the very institutions he is a part of. One wonders how these idiots got degrees in law.
Chief Justice Roberts says the rule of law is eroding like we've rarely seen. Maybe he should've thought of that before ruling the president is above the law. You don't get to burn the house down and act shocked it's on fire.
The entire GOP is allowing this to happen. Let's never forget that. A dictator never acts alone.
💙🐈🐈⬛💙 Absolutely!! Every Republican should be held accountable for this. Trumps cabinet and ICE agents should all be held individually accountable!
there are not 3 co-equal branches of government. Congress is above the other 2. Congress can act and impeach and remove the president, cabinet, and supreme court at anytime using a simple majority in the House and 60 votes in the Senate. They need to wake up and exercise their power before its gone
Never before in our history has one man exercised such unbridled discretion affecting the lives of so many of us, while simultaneously preventing others — Congress, the courts, the American people — from having a say or even knowing what he’s going to do next. This is what dictatorship looks like.
very good idea. I had both shots
The party that claims to care about law and order sends the military to pick up trash in DC but has nothing to say about the regular massacre of children in schools under than ‘thoughts and prayers.’
he's hearing voices in his head now. How much more evidence do we need that he should be removed from office?
I’ll take things that never happened for $500.
atarbuck is a good name for that guy. He's the one always looking bewildered while everyone else laughs at the joke. His byline should be, "I don't get it"
The Trump Administration manipulates data provided to the public from agencies like the Dept. of Energy & the EPA, to help his buddies in the fossil fuels industry. @govjayinslee.bsky.social: “Trump is a big speedbump” in the fight for clean energy, but Inslee has a plan. youtu.be/XQMpwJ4CzEo?...
First, they came for John Bolton And I did speak out Because even though I'm not a nutty right-wing warmonger with a ridiculous mustache, I am an American who is horrified by a simple-minded tyrant using our Justice Department to avenge his petty, personal grudges.

23 Dem governors are “crucial in resisting Trump’s defiance of our federal system & the independent power of states. The more Trump over-reaches in his deployment of military troops & other criminal violations, the more we should expect Dem states to say no.” www.americaamerica.news/p/snapshot-y...
@mikiesherrill.bsky.social signals NJ will fight back in Trump's map fight: "What I think Trump is looking to do is create an unwinnable map... We're going to have to use the power we have to fight back against that. And that includes all of the tools we have to ensure we're standing up strongly."
BOOM! This is a huge win by Dem Catelin Drey in a district Trump won by 11 points. More than a 21 point swing… in Iowa.
Masked immigration raids don’t protect us. They hide abuse and strip away our dignity. Stand with me in demanding transparency and accountability by adding your name to this petition.
You are living through the unthinkable: the president of the United States using the military to seize domestic power. The greatest crisis of executive power in American history, at the hands of the worst, most corrupt, and most unfit president in American history.
The Fed was designed to be insulated from politics to maintain the stability and credibility of our financial system. The President is breaking the law, abusing his power, setting a dangerous precedent, and undermining our economy.
BREAKING: Abrego Garcia just renewed his bid for asylum. Keep fighting!
This is what I'm talkin about!
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.

What you missed overnight night.🥳 Utah's gerrymandered congressional map was struck down. The judge reinstated the citizen-led redistricting reforms voters approved in 2018. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
This is how you stand up to bullies and aspiring tyrants.
I celebrate every victory for voting rights, but this one is particularly special. No issue has been more hotly contested or more important to PA voters than this one. The DSCC and DCCC fought hard and it is great to see them prevail. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
Trump’s immigration raids are destroying our agricultural workforce — inflating costs, creating worker shortages, and destroying communities. On California Farmworker Day, we honor the hardworking men and women who power our economy. We will not stop defending your rights.

ICYMI: Colorado Legislature passes bill to fund Medicaid reimbursements for Planned Parenthood
Remembering back a couple of years ago .... His booking number was P01135809. Should have ended up behind bars. Instead he took over our Oval Office again. Money can buy so much, especially when you use other people's money. And now he is the head of Crime in D.C. ... and the country. LOCK HIM UP !
