"WEAK LOSER" DONALD TRUMP (CRAPPY HAIR!) IS A BROKEN-INSIDE MANCHILD. (SAD!) HIS TYRANT FATHER (KKK!) DESTROYED HIM AND NOW WE ALL MUST SUFFER AS A RESULT. YOUR FAVORITE WRITER (ME!) EXPLAINS THIS IN A GREAT POST THAT MANY ARE SAYING IS THE GREATEST POST EVER. READ IT HERE: bit.ly/3HD7AQd
This Labor Day, Trump wants you to believe heās āpro-worker.ā The reality? Heās spent his career attacking workers while protecting billionaires and CEOs. š§µ
DC Statehood! Now, more than ever! The denial of full representation and governing rights to Washington DC residents has allowed for too many abuses ā most recently by Trump. Democrats must make DC Statehood a priority of their next administration and Congress!
Trump did this

Welch: As someone who lives in a red state, let me just tell you what MAGA supermajorities get you. We're 50th in education. The worst in the whole country for women to live. We're poorer, worst health care. And if you look at the bottom ten states, they are all MAGA supermajorities.
Refugees in Kenya have died at food distribution centers, officials noted, including a pregnant woman crushed to death during a stampede. Aid workers said they expected more people to get hurt āas vulnerable households become increasingly desperate.ā (Published May 2025)
Every time your electricity bill goes up for the next 10 years, it can be traced back to this Administrationās actions. They are making solar and wind power illegal to build in the United States. They are artificially restricting supply while demand is going up.
I vaguely remember tweeting something like the country that effectively captures this free energy source at scale will rule the 21st century. whelp.

Letās be blunt: the president who cut pediatric cancer research isnāt going to do anything to prevent kids from being shot in school either. Our children deserve so much better than Donald Trump.

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.
Krasner: So, if what you have is a group of ICE agents, or even the military, coming into Philadelphia and committing crimesāassaults that are illegal, kidnapping, unlawful restraint, obstruction of the administration of justiceāthey can be prosecuted.
Whew! Sen. Susan Collins should be āvery concernedā She showed up as the main guest at a ribbon-cutting in Searsport, Maine. It backfired. The crowd was not happy to have her: āShame. Shame. Shame.ā

If a president can fire a Fed governor on accusation, not cause, monetary policy shifts from the Fed to the White House. Goodbye independent Fed; hello maga Fed, and watch decades of hard-won credibility turns to dust. Posting the entire interview on youtube as an experiment. youtu.be/DpSqbqQde3Y

š±Kennedy is f'ing bad.
Itās continues to be despicable how the media has spent a decade normalizing the orange felon so much so that they are reporting on his authoritarian militarization of Washington DC as if it were a routine military exercise. They deliberately failed democracy for clickbait.
I am frequently filled with rage at the memory of how many people blew me off when I said in 2016 that sure, Hillary has issues, but the Supreme Court nominations are gonna be important. Just one of many told-you-soās.
Concert outside the White House! #cdnpoli
šØBREAKING: Third Circuit STRIKES DOWN Pennsylvania requirement that mail-in ballots that arrive in undated or misdated return envelopes be discarded. Court holds that Constitution requires they be counted. A big victory for our clients DSCC and DCCC and PA voters!

Democrats voting for Trump's appointees are bolstering the fascist party. Democrats need to get their s**t together.
"For those people out there who ... say, 'Well, I just don't like those people either' ... You could be next. ... This is not about any one individual, this is about our rights as Americans, and our right to have a justice system where choices about prosecuting are made without fear or favor."
Will the media do their job and call out Trump's lies and BS?
CEOs and world leaders bringing Trump gifts and flattery to win his favor. It turns my stomach watching these spineless leaders kiss Trumps fascist ass.
This is the way ā¦
Walz: "It boggles my damn mind that in the midst of a military takeover of our cities, the flaunting of the rule of law, that the press finds the need to talk about, 'Oh, there's a division in the Dem Party.' There's a division in my damn house & we're still married and things are good. That's life"
America's democracy is in free fall. Trump's military take over of blue cities governments is a death nail. The military is now loyal to a fascist sadistic sociopath president. A revolution by the people is the only answer to Trump's madness.
šØTo be CLEAR: Our military exists to defend America ā not to help Trump intimidate Americans. āI put on that uniform. Iāve been in the National Guardā¦ that to me is whatās so alarming here, because that is not what the Armed Forces is designed to do.ā ā VoteVetsā Max Rose

Virginia Giuffre isnāt here to tell her story anymore, but she wrote a memoir and itās coming out in October. She deserves to be heard and remembered. #BookSky Details here: www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/712958...
Schiff on the Bolton raid: "They're essentially going after any critic, any opposition in an effort to intimidate them. That's what this is about. It's not about Bolton per se. It's about anyone else that like Bolton might stand up to the president."
Itās spreading.
ššTrump's Gestapo and SS police are detaining, arresting and disappearing people off the streets. Armed military taking over our cities. Corruption galore in the Trump administration.The United States is under an authoritarian dictatorship. Legacy media is silent.
Patriots.
Yeah, how about it, @thehill.com? š¤Ø
A rainbow image to commemorate those who died at this site of a horrific mass murder of gay people. This is sick.
No party waste money like the fascist party. 150 billion to ICE, NG troops deployed to blue cities, troops at the border, painting a f'ing border fence. The list goes on and on. Its insane!
How much longer will America put up with dictator Trump and his fascist party? Military occupation of blue cities is nothing short of a fascist takeover.
Nazi poster?
What does Alligator Alcatraz have to do with Pride Crosswalks, LT Gov.Jay Collins, and Guns? Pulse was hosting "Latin Night". Most of the victims were of Latino descent. Crosswalks were ordered to be removed on the same day DeSantis suffered a defeat in court for the Hispanic internment center.
But protecting pedophiles like Ghislaine Maxwell and pardoning insurrectionists? Is this why people enlist in the National Guard? To terrorize fellow Americans? www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...
Breaking: Trump's next terrorist attack will be on Chicago per WaPo. Several thousand guard and possibly active troops. It's unconstitutional of course but who's going to stop him? His whores on the Supreme Court? www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...
Itās my opinion that humanitarian and musical genius Dolly Parton (as well as Chef JosĆ© AndrĆ©s) deserves the Nobel Peace Prize. tucson.com/life-enterta...
This is amazing. And a reminder of the incredible work that our researchers and scientists are doing, at UW, and across the country. Breakthroughs like these are exactly why we need to fund the lifesaving work being done at our universities and research centers. www.kuow.org/stories/this...
D.C. has more residents than two U.S. states. They pay more per capita in federal taxes than any other state. But they donāt get a serious seat at the table to decide how theyāre governed. D.C. statehood now.
Iām sure Trump doesnāt want to be called Comrade Trump, even though heās assisting Putinās desire to rebuild the USSR and heās demanding governing ownership of the means of production. Is Comrade Trump now one of the communist lunatics he decries?
WTF America! How much longer are we gonna put up with this third world dictatorship?
Frost: He knows they can't win, so he wants to cheat. The same thing he's done his entire life. But I'll tell you something else I feel really good about, is what California's doing. They're saying we're not gonna let you do this without a fight.
Another Epstein survivor, Lisa Phillips, comes forward. She confirms the profile and the role of Ghislaine Maxwell in the abuses.
Pathetic!
Go Governor Newsom.šš
Newsomās Twitter troll is genius because pleading and crying in front of an authoritarian does nothing, but pointing and laughing enrages the authoritarian.
Hundreds of millions of dollars being wasted just so Trump can feed his authoritarian ego. If Trump really wanted to fight crime he would work with blue and red cities on issues specific to their law enforcement needs.

Reporters don't care if the fascist sadistic sociopath president lies to them repeatedly. They never follow up on his lies. Its sickening.
It is not the job of federal judges to "respect the president." Good luck with the job hunt, Alina.
NEW: After DOGE outed Mohammad Halimi on social media, Taliban intelligence agents blindfolded and took three of his family members to a remote prison. They were repeatedly beaten and questioned about Halimi and his recently publicized work for the United States.
A federal judge ordered that no more immigrant detainees be sent to the āAlligator Alcatrazā detention center in the Florida Everglades, and that much of the facility be dismantled. The ruling rebuked the state and federal governments for failing to consider potential environmental harms.
Donald Trump is going to try to rig the outcome of the 2026 election because he is an authoritarian and that is what authoritarians do. I don't know if I should say it louder or softer, but people need to pay attention and take action. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z2bc...
Trump is a man with no morals no loyalties with a desire to be ultra wealthy and all powerful. He uses his fascist loyalists in the US government to crush people who speak out against him. Trump is a convicted felon and a convicted of sexual abuser. Trump is loyal to Putin not the people of the US.
Arnold should be talking to his right-wing friends. Democrats must go on the offensive and kick the shit out of Trump and his fascist party.
I stand with Governor Newsom. Thank you, governor
Newsom: We canāt do things the way weāve done. Letās disabuse ourselves of that. The Democratic Party needs to assert itself. We need to be strong again. Strength matters. People want conviction. They want character. They want a sense of intention and purposeā¦
NEW: As Republicans work to rig the 2026 election, Democratic governors are key to winning the redistricting fight. With veto power over maps and the ability to appoint judges who impact their implementation, electing governors has never been more crucial, @megmeedra.bsky.social writes.
"A Prince, whose character is thus marked by every act which may define a Tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people." āThe Declaration of Independence
Sometimes the sheer idiocy of this moment overwhelms me. The idea that our convicted felon POTUS who incited an attack on DC police then pardoned the attackers & who's the most corrupt official in US history is going on an "anti-crime" ride-along in a city w/falling crime rate is...(brain explodes)
I really liked Jack White prior to this, but I love him now!
