www.tiktok.com/t/ZT6WMDAs1/ Israel is doing this to innocent people, and then fucking gaslighting the whole world trying to say it’s not happening, and it’s all the fault of Hamas. Fucking INSANE!! Unforgivable sin. Unforgivable monstrosity.

For the sixth month in a row, U.S. manufacturing activity shrank in August. One manufacturer said they’re just trying to survive. Didn’t the President say his tariffs would bring those jobs back to America and boost manufacturing? finance.yahoo.com/news/us-manu...
On this afternoon’s bike ride:
AOC: If anybody says “this isn’t fair, I'm gonna have to divest all my stocks if I run for congress” maybe you should stay home.
🇦🇫 More than 2,200 people were killed in the magnitude 6.0 earthquake that struck eastern Afghanistan at the weekend, according to the latest toll from the Taliban authorities. The vast majority of the total 2,217 dead were in the mountainous Kunar province near the border with Pakistan. #AFP
Yes. Even in this political environment, if the U.S. Navy illegally killed the people on that boat, there are still avenues to seek justice. Between the JAG Corps and NCIS alone, there are mechanisms to apply tremendous pressure on Congress and senior leadership to pursue charges.

Another colourful day in Oslo. It was a bit brighter then than it is this morning as I lie here and listen to the heavy rain hitting the window pane.... #humansofbluesky #UrbanGaze #streetphoto #cityscape #urban #architecture #EastCoastKin

"Go to an old cemetery. See all the baby graves from before the 1950s & 60s? After that, hardly any. That's when people started vaccinating their children. If you're unsure what to do to protect your kids, the answer is literally written in stone." — Michael Okuda How quick we forget.
The guy that ordered 8 fighter jets to perform a low altitude fly-over in an effort to drown out Epstein survivors is the same guy who wants you to believe he's innocent.

The bipartisan Restore Trust in Congress Act is a necessary step to ban Members of Congress and their families from engaging in insider trading. It is time to pass this bill and make it clear to the American people that their elected officials put them first.
Vermont 🇺🇸 during the fall is a popular travel destination, famous for its vibrant fall foliage, especially during October and early November. 🍁🍠🍂✨

About this Florida vaccine story: When they were little - 1 yr and 3 1/2 - my two older boys, who’d had all their shots, got whooping cough. We asked their pediatrician what would’ve happened if they hadn’t been vaccinated. “Oh, they’d have died.”

Next they'll be rewriting textbooks to say Japanese American internment camps were delightful summer resorts.
It is my birthday tomorrow! If you want to do something for me, I have a big request. Think of somebody in your life who is struggling. Make them soup. Play a videogame with them. Help get their window unstuck. You don't know how far a little goodness can go. But I believe in you.
At the moment, I'm regrettably not exploring a quaint bookstore on a cobblestone street in Prague during a raging thunderstorm, so no, I'm afraid your email did not "find me well."
Raskin: "When private comments made by federal employees are scrutinized for anti-Trump bias and they can lose their jobs because of it, then we've entered the realm not just of Vladimir Putin but Joseph Stalin."

Pedophilia persists as a deeply rooted issue within white communities, which is why the Epstein files remain such a complex subject to confront. What we are witnessing is not just crime, but a cycle of white perpetrators shielding one another 👇🏾

It’s not just that the President of the United States posted a video of eleven people being murdered in international waters it’s that the President of the United States ordered the murder of eleven people in international waters so he could post a video of it.

The ad campaign criticizing the use of masks by federal agents working in Washington, D.C. has expanded to 115 bus stops, per organizers
Abuse like Epstein's proceeds w/ the premise that the victims are voiceless or can be shamed, intimidated, threatened, or discredited so iif they do try to speak up. Today they spoke up and were heard on national media. May their power continue, may accountability come for all the perpetrators.
NEWSMAX: You know there are critics who say 'how can the family be involved with crypto when your dad, the president, is working on legislation.' How do you silence them? DONALD TRUMP JR: Maybe you shouldn't have tried to sue us into oblivion over nothing. Maybe you shouldn't have tried to jail us
A victim of convicted sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein has revealed how a group of survivors is compiling a client list of their own.

Guess which network is ignoring the survivors? Fox isn’t news.
Politicians offering thoughts and prayers and then refusing to use the power they have to keep our children alive is to make a mockery of prayer. It is to trivialize faith.
I wish somebody would ask him to specifically list the "seven" or however many wars he claims to have ended and then hand him a map and ask him to show us on it where the wars were.

Pritzker: "Any rational person who has spent even the most minimal amount of time studying human history has to ask themselves one important question: once they get the citizens of this nation comfortable with the current atrocities committed under the color of law, what comes next?"
This hits harder than when I saw this movie the first time. #CaptainAmerica
See through it.

Pritzker: "It breaks my heart to report that we have been told ICE will try to disrupt community picnics and peaceful parades. Let's be clear -- the terror and cruelty is the point, not the safety of anybody living here."

We lost one of the greats. Graham Greene was not only an actor but a trail blazer. He opened doors for so many of us Natives. I'm proud to say that the very first pilot I ever acted in was with Graham Greene. The pilot was never picked up but I get to say that I got to work with one of the greats.
Over the long weekend, the Trump administration quietly tried to deport 76 unaccompanied children to Guatemala – ignoring laws protecting such minors from speedy deportations. Thankfully, a federal judge blocked the effort. The cruelty of this regime knows no bounds.
And I share it!

If you deployed to Los Angeles, you followed illegal orders. If you’re ordered to deploy to Chicago, those orders too will be illegal. If you’re in uniform, you’re subject to the UCMJ and have a DUTY to not follow unlawful orders. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
So they re-released most of the same shit they gave the GOP binder crew in February? Color me shocked. Never thought I’d say this, but I’m with Massie. Release the rest of the damn Epstein files, not this cherry-picked bullshit.
The president is sending the military to control American cities and if you're a reporter who's framing that illegal power grab as "pushing the boundaries of constitutionality" or "acting boldly to fight crime" or whatever, please go find another line of work where you won't get us all killed.

Good night, friends. ⭐️
So our military just bombed a boat in international waters and extrajudicially killed suspected drug traffickers without so much as a conversation, let alone a trial? Then posted it on social media? And we’re all supposed to just trust their account?
Only if they follow the law. He's already shown he won't and neither will a GOP majority Congress.

And now I just learned our president ordered the murder of 11 people. Every day a new low.
BREAKING: The Pentagon has authorized up to 600 military lawyers to serve as temporary immigration judges. This is a blatant expansion of military power into a civilian judicial process, a dangerous erosion of the separation between the two. Every day, we inch closer to fascism.
Yesterday we visited Green Mountain Falls, CO to visit the kinetic sculpture Off the Beaten Path by Patrick Shearn. I wasn’t ready for just how dynamic it was even in the slightest breeze. Reminds me of a murmuration of starlings. Incredible artwork. It’ll only be up through October 19th.
I'm aware that the President likes to go on television and beg me to call him to ask for troops. I find it strange, as Chicago doesn't want troops. I also have experience asking him for assistance – just to have the rug pulled up from underneath me when execution meets reality.
”what’s the male equivalent of a mini skirt?” a mini skirt, obviously. what are you, a coward?
To start a war so he can then declare martial law and suspend elections to stay in power.
About to go to bed but the man who ran on "NO NEW WARS" just ordered a lethal military strike on a ship in the Caribbean, alleging it is a "narco terrorist vessel," but of course no regard for Congressional due process, no evidence, & no care for potential civilians. Nothing autocratic about this.😐
GOP Rep. Thomas Massie has filed a discharge petition to force the disclosure of Justice Department investigative files related to the late sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein.
The largest SNAP cuts in history went into effect yesterday, eliminating or drastically cutting food assistance for millions of Americans. And it’s all to pay for more tax cuts that primarily benefit the super-rich. Trickle-down economics isn't just a hoax — it's cruel.

✈️🇪🇺🇧🇬A plane carrying European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen was forced to land in Bulgaria using paper maps after suspected Russian GPS jamming disrupted its navigation systems, the Financial Times reports.
Trump is in violation of the Posse Comitatus Act. Maybe he needs to rethink his pending announcement.
In order to get a weather forecasting job with the National Weather Service, applicants now have to name at least two Trump Executive Orders and state how they plan to help support them. Which is ridiculous and shame on every MIC that allows that nonsense in their WFO!

They know and they're scared. That's why their attacks on free elections will increase. Trump might only be as bright as a bag of bricks but the MAGA Neo-Nazis surrounding him aren't. They know this may be their last chance to solidify control before he stops breathing.
