They are privatizing Medicare, which means they will profit off denial of coverage. Say no to the GOP or face loss of insurance.
Any Senators here? I’m a biomedical scientist with immunology, cancer, infectious disease expertise. RFK Jr lied to you in his confirmation hearings. Repeatedly. Provably. He’s lied to EVERYONE for 30+ years. Repeatedly. Provably. He WILL lie today. Repeatedly. Provably. 1/
🚨🚨🚨No words, just watch and listen! Holy shit. 1/2
Sen. Warren Daniel (R–NC, District 46) was caught trading stocks right on the Senate floor. Didn’t even wait for a break. Playing the market on the taxpayers’ time…pure abuse of power.
Spencer Kuvin, Epstein's victims' lawyer, says the FBI interviewed 40+ girls, some just 14, and prepared a 54-count indictment. Then came the secret plea deal that let Epstein walk. Those interviews are in the files. Kuvin says Alan Dershowitz scoured the girls' MySpace pages to smear them as liars.
RFK Jr: It's gonna be the biggest infusion of federal dollar into rural healthcare in American history BERNIE SANDERS: Yeah. You know why? Because you're cutting $150b for rural hospitals, you're putting $50b back. That's not an infusion. That's a loss of $100b.

More women have nearly bled to death during miscarriage under Texas’ abortion ban. Experts say the trend paints a troubling picture of the harms of unnecessary delays in care. “This is striking,” one doctor said. “The trend is very clear.” (Published July)
Massie: "The Speaker of the House just offered a fig leaf to my colleagues. They're gonna vote on a non-binding resolution today that does absolutely nothing ... they're allowing the DOJ to curate all of the information that the DOJ is giving them ... the perpetrators are being protected"
Giving a predator like Ghislain Maxwell a platform, moving her to a comfortable prison without receiving anything in return except to claim innocence and say you’re nice guy— when 100’s of children where victimized is a miscarriage of justice. Epstein survivor—“…She also participated in the abuse…”
"For so many years, it felt like Epstein's criminal behavior was an open secret." “We’re not going away. We’re not staying quiet. We’re not going to give up.” Annie Farmer (Epstein survivor)
Children -- especially from lower income and rural backgrounds -- will become sicker and die. While the idiots in this photo will vaccinate their kids anyway. Way to go FL. apnews.com/article/flor...

A political novice's campaign to unseat Sen. Susan Collins is off to a strong start Graham Platner, an oyster farmer and combat veteran, represents a new pugilistic approach to Democratic politics.
BREAKING EXCLUSIVE: Not only will Reps. Ro Khanna and Thomas Massie be at tomorrow’s press conference with the Epstein survivors — but Marjorie Taylor Greene will be there as well.
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?
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.
Khanna: It’s going to be a bombshell press conference tomorrow at 10:30 a.m. The American people will hear directly from survivors of the Epstein abuse. And they’re not just going to talk about Epstein’s and Maxwell’s abuse — they’re going to talk about rich and powerful men…
Pritzker: When did we become a country where it's okay for the president to insist on national television that a state should call him to beg for anything, especially something we don't want? Have we truly lost all sense of sanity in this nation that we treat this as normal?
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."
As many as 100 survivors of Jeffrey Epstein and other victims of sexual abuse are expected to attend a rally Wednesday in Washington, D.C. as a bipartisan Congressional effort gains steam to force the U.S. Department of Justice to make public its controversial files on the disgraced sex trafficker.

Reminder that the US Trump regime conspired to over throw Ukrainian President Zelenskyy, a direct attack on democracy in Ukraine and worldwide.
Trump regime operatives exposed in plot to undermine Denmark and overthrow the government in Greenland. Regime operatives attempted to disrupt democracy through misinformation and disruption operations aimed at recruiting traitors and collaborators to help sway public consensus towards the US.

"We’re going to be sicker as a country, not as effective, waste resources. And for what? I don’t understand," a current CDC senior official tells @msnbc.com. @brandyzadrozny.bsky.social has the latest from inside the CDC: www.msnbc.com/msnbc/news/c...
Don’t look away
I applaud workers at the CDC for standing up against Sec. Kennedy’s dangerous anti-vaccine crusade. We are witnessing a full-blown war on public health from the Trump Administration. History will not look kindly on those who stayed silent in the face of this assault on science.
Trump owns all of it.

How many people of color and women does Trump have to fire or otherwise target before the racism and systematic discrimination within his administration is condemned by anyone of power in Washington? In either party? He's so despicable. Yet it seems business as usual in the mainstream media.
What he is attempting to do is illegal. What he is attempting to do is authoritarian. What he is attempting to do is racist and sexist. If you don't report it right, people won't respond to it as they should.
Pritzker: This is not about fighting crime. This is about the President and his complicit lackey, Stephen Miller, searching for ways to lay the groundwork to circumvent our democracy, militarize our cities, and end elections.
If you’re doing a ‘double tap’ strike on a hospital, you’re a war criminal and a terrorist.
Dems are apparently "looking for a platform" when the answer is right there: Stop running away from thing that actually help people. Food, housing, healthcare, no genocides, everyone's rights and bodily autonomy protected, a livable world, and all of those things viciously, deftly defended, always.
My heart breaks into 10,000 pieces once again.

Inside Putin’s fossil-fueled victory lap over Trump in Alaska: No sanctions, no cease-fire, no security guarantee, but plenty of fossil fuel deals brew after Trump’s cringeworthy Putin-appeasement on Ukraine www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...
Absolutely right. Dem leaders shunning Mamdani, blaming the left for the problems of the party, resisting generational change, are out of touch, buying into oldthink about "moderation" that is really surrender, serves big money interests at the expense of the people & won't win/energize new voters.
Yep, I reported this several weeks ago. William Pulte, a Trump loyalist, is using the FHFA bureaucracy to help Trump gin up fake pretexts for prosecutions of his enemies. One former IG told me: “From beginning to end, this process is highly irregular." newrepublic.com/article/1980...
Looks like yesterday’s display of distrust of Trump by our European allies was well warranted.

Meiselas: Just looking at that shit-eating grin on Pam Bondi, who's covering up for a pedo sex trafficking ring behind them...Just mocking the American people while Americans are suffering. What pathetic, vile pieces of trash. Every single one of them in that Trump regime.
No, JD, belonging in America does not depend on how many generations of your family have lived here. The values of this country matter - deeply - to who we are and what it means to be American.
Clearly this is not about making DC, or any of us, safer.
Heck yeah! Keep fighting
Trump firing the Bureau of Labor Statistics Commissioner after the release of a weak jobs report sends a terrible message to businesses and the entire world: “You can’t trust data coming out of the United States.”
Deploying the military and militarized federal police into the streets of American cities is unjustified and a profound threat to our civil liberties. It is another very dangerous, major step into authoritarianism. And make no mistake authoritarianism is not where we’re headed, it’s where we are.
So ugly. So appalling. So dangerous. (And not a peep from a single Republican. Why? Because they support it. They are the sponsors and enablers of an American police state.)
The Department of Justice hired a former Jan. 6 defendant who was caught on tape urging rioters to "kill" police. The department calls him a "valued member" of the administration.
Al-Sharif killed in what appears to be a targeted Israeli attack on tent housing journalists outside al-Shifa hospital.
He is only one of thousands of propagandist terrorists participating in the malicious influence industry and fueling the online MAGA presence, which is mostly foreign inauthentic botnets and commercial 'influence' firms operated and advised by former spooks.

Epstein victims speak out: This "smacks of a cover up." Several victims have sent letters to the judges who will decide whether to grant the DOJ’s request to unseal the grand jury materials in their cases.
Republicans sure are pulling out all the stops to wield the government against Texas Democrats. Warrants, FBI, court processes. Not a second wasted. Goes to show that if they *wanted* to bring Epstein's clients to justice, they could. They just don't want to.
This is absolutely horrendous.
NEWS: Annie Farmer, an Epstein survivor who testified against Ghislaine Maxwell, just revealed on CNN that she wrote a letter with her concerns to Deputy AG Blanche — and received no response. She says neither she nor other survivors have heard a word from the DOJ.
NEW: The Department of Veterans Affairs just terminated union contracts including AFL-CIO (AFGE), NAGE, NFFE, SEIU, and nursing unions NNOC and NNU. nurse.org/news/va-term...
NEW: Police bodycam footage introduced at the trial of Jared Wise showed him berating police officers on Jan. 6, 2021, and yelling "kill 'em" as rioters attacked law enforcement. He’s now working as a senior adviser for the Department of Justice.
Federal law enforcement is being used to literally hunt down Texas Democrats in Illinois so Republicans can draw new electoral maps and disenfranchise millions of people. An extremely scary precedent is being set right now and Illinois is the first proving ground: www.axios.com/2025/08/07/f...

Gabbard and White House 'lying' about intel on Russian interference in 2016, ex-CIA official says. "We definitely had the intel," Susan Miller, who helped oversee the 2017 intelligence assessment of Russia's efforts in the 2016 election, told NBC News. www.nbcnews.com/politics/nat...
Friggin’ moron.
The President of the United States went on CNBC today and said: He won the 2020 election (he didn’t). He has a 71% approval rating (he doesn’t). The jobs numbers were rigged (they weren’t). I could say something funny here, but I won’t. It’s just so damn dangerous to have him in the White House.
weird how the guy born into obscene wealth, bailed out repeatedly, allowed to fail upwards forever until he fell ass-backwards into the presidency, and then was declared by the Supreme Court to be a Very Special Boy Who Can Crime Forever never stops whining about how everything is rigged against him
I see why he bankrupted casinos.
RFK Jr. just pulled $500 million in funding for life-saving vaccines. But hey, you'll be able to drink more sugary soda! Make America Healthy Again!
Top Trump officials are meeting at the Vice President’s residence tomorrow to discuss their next moves to cover-up Trump’s involvement with Jeffrey Epstein
