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.
"Husband wins Ohio lottery scratch-off, plans to cover wife's cancer treatment" The United States is one of the wealthiest countries in the world and should provide universal healthcare. No one should have to win the lottery to afford cancer treatment. www.freep.com/story/money/...

Yes we do deserve better representation across the board.
These people in deep blue/red places shouldn’t assume they are in lifetime appointments. They should do some time with vigor and then pass the baton.
Raddatz: "One of the things that they're trying to do in D.C. with the National Guard is have them back up federal law enforcement." Gov. Wes Moore: "They're picking up trash."
Trump naturally yearns to be all powerful like Xi, Netanyahu, Putin, etc, and has/is maneuvering everyday toward that goal. His hardcore followers, 33% of population, want this too. The militarized long arm of the law and other hired guns are 85% all in or fearfully compliant. All in 7 months time

Two kids killed and 17 more injured last week in the United States again! How about helping stop/slow mass shootings in our country. Is it too hard for you?
In a national poll, 9 out of 10 American flags prefer Governor Gavin Christopher Newsom.
What’d you expect from a Trump engineer?
Why do you appreciate unions? I’ll start: Weekends off Paid vacations Work breaks Sick leave Paid holidays No child labor Safer working conditions Health care and retirement benefits
Just f'ing believe them!! #pedofuhrer #epsteintrumpfiles Foxtrot Delta Tango.
apnews.com/article/immi...: Oregon firefighter arrested by Border Patrol during wildfire was on track for legal status
For real: Are Republicans not embarrassed by stuff like this??
He actually thinks he’s the next Jesus Christ and will let us all know how god wants him to proceed.
In recent public remarks about deploying the National Guard to Chicago, Donald Trump said: “I have the right to do ANYTHING I want to do. I’m the president of the United States.” Not even a King has that right. Certainly no president. Who knew a non-drinker could be so drunk with power?
Gavin Newsom is exactly right, Trump is doing everything we told you he would do and more. It's time to wake the hell up, America. Authoritarianism is here.

Republicans and union-busting brands will post “Happy #LaborDay,” knowing damn well that they were the types of people Labor fought against to bring us: - minimum wages - overtime pay - 8 hr workday and a 40 hr week - end to child labor - workplace safety Support unions.

NEWS: Iowa U.S. Senator Joni Ernst (R-IA), who recently told her constituents "we're all going to die" anyway when asked why she supported Medicaid cuts, does not plan on seeking reelection in 2026. (CBS 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.
I vaguely remember tweeting something like the country that effectively captures this free energy source at scale will rule the 21st century. whelp.
There’s no way this is real.
There’s gotta be a painting about Trump in the Epstein collection that needs to be unearthed immediately.
If Trump doesn't see what's up with Vance then the old man really has lost a step.
If I were charged with a federal crime, I’d hire Pam Bondi’s brother as my lawyer. Because I don’t think this is a coincidence.

Wall Street whistling past Main Streets weakness, patience, and discourse will be their downfall again way before 2027.
Hopefully he never plays but a much needed insurance policy.
They are the do nothing party other.
When people say the world is going in the wrong direction, just remember how shitty our history really is.

I’m pretty sure there’s not a single demo of the almost 40 million users. Time is the only thing needed for Bluesky to survive. All the others had time to resonate and adjust, why not Blue?
It’s the guns!
JJ in DC has the disappeared/deportation aviation news everyday.
Yeah these are the type of immigrants Trump was talking about getting rid of. What low life scum Trump is and these agents, that most likely justify it by Only Following Orders. Hey ICE why don’t you go get a real job and stop milking off the tax base.

RACISM is what prompted this - disgraceful!
We also need candidates with some grit and real passionate fight in them. A lot like you did. Manufactured and polished candidates that are too afraid to speak their mind with fear from inside the party are not who we need running. We lost complete control of all power across the board, gloves off.
Trump is Putin’s toy.
Trump is most definitely a Putin loyalist till the day he dies. Nothing has changed from Trump 1.0, it was just a head fake.
Moore: "The thing that gets me most about this is how deeply disrespectful this is to members of the National Guard who signed up for this job as I did when I deployed overseas & led paratroopers in combat where we signed up w/the expectation the commander in chief was actually taking it seriously"
Wow. On NPR, @gbrumfiel.bsky.social reports a Social Security official “copied the Social Security numbers, names and birthdays of over 300 million Americans to a private section of the agency's cloud.” The source is a whistleblower, who is named: Charles Borges, SSN chief data officer.
She should be able to make more money for the work that she does. With all her responsibilities and pressure on her shoulders she should definitely get some monetary return. It wouldn’t change her past and doubt it’s change her stance now.
BREAKING: AOC has submitted her latest annual financial disclosure. According to the filing, her only reported assets include under $66,000 across various bank accounts and less than $15,000 in a mutual fund. She also continues to carry up to $50,000 in student loan debt dating back to 2007.
She’s another politician so enamored with herself, like Trump, than actually helping solve real problems. Olympia Snowe had real Maine values, Collins has none.
State politics. But still a good sign…
When do we go? Every single day is cause for protests! We can’t take every day off.
This is MASSIVE. It’s like the court-ordered un-gerrymandering of Utah.
Pritzker and Newsom have shown more fight and pushback on Trump than any other elected leader. I am beyond grateful for their leadership showing others how it’s done.
We cannot stand idly by or remain silent. This is a time that demands we use our collective power against this hostile authoritarian regime. bit.ly/47pXvAD
Yes many of them are mercenaries. Trumps hired guns with no oaths to our country only to Trumps cash.

The last time troops policed America was in the 1770s. We fought a revolution against that king, and wrote into the Constitution the Second, Third, Fourth, and Fifth Amendments to prevent it from ever happening again. Pass it along…

They need to start running Epstein news 24/7!
Yes. Please.
There are people all over the country that run successfully worldwide companies as well as people throughout our history managing critically enormous jobs in government.
Insurance companies are the problem as well as profiteering hospital administrators. The system is nothing but a cash cow for the few and everyone else suffers.
"True individual freedom cannot exist without economic security and independence. People who are hungry and out of a job are the stuff of which dictatorships are made.” —FDR, 1944
Is this a headline about real life or a promo for a movie?
Jim Jordan defends Ghislaine Maxwell, Lavrov blows up Trump/Vance’s Ukraine lies, Trump seizes Intel stake, Melania vanishes, Trump prepares to invade cities with the military, Trump health issues under scrutiny, and more. A whole lot to catch up on:
How are you going to protect the people in Illinois? Trump’s manufactured reasoning is bringing his war to your house and you’ll have zero rights to defend your state, just like DC and Cali. You will be bullied and punching them in the mouth is the only remedy.
It’s not the first time Jim Jordan has covered for sexual abusers. The Republican Party is no longer functioning as a political party. It’s a child sex trafficking and sexual abuse ring. Reprehensible.
Remember everyone is either non-white or an immigrant in this country. Both are features used against us. So yes we all should be well aware of how this story could play out.
Absolutely everybody needs to listen to Charlie Sykes' warnings in this episode. @sykescharlie.bsky.social open.spotify.com/episode/4LhY...
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"
Virginia Giuffre: “I was instructed to get undressed and have sex with Jeffrey Epstein while Ghislaine Maxwell was particpating as well. Both of them. I was abused by Ghislaine and Epstein.”
Republicans had a choice: expose child s*x traffickers or protect Trump. They chose Trump. They chose traffickers. They are the party of child s*x trafficking.
Every gerrymander, purge, and press attack tightens the screw — until the system is locked and the tyrant holds the only key… hartmannreport.com/p/the-author...
So true!! "“Releasing the Epstein files in batches just continues this White House cover-up. The American people will not accept anything short of the full, unredacted Epstein files,” Rep. Robert Garcia" RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES! #Pinks www.politico.com/news/2025/08...
Here’s what was NOT released today: - the proffer agreement between Maxwell and the DoJ - the agreement transferring Maxwell to club fed - communications showing who waived Maxwell’s sex offender status allowing her transfer and possible work assignments outside prison - the Epstein files
🔥 Russia has lost more than 13% of its refining capacity due to Ukrainian drone strikes. In total, in just under three weeks, the oil industry lost 44.3 million tons of annual refining capacity, or 13.5% of the country’s total of 328 million tons per year.
It’s going to be a Powell day. It’s his fault for anything that’s wrong with economy. Also, MAGA is for Men Always Getting Angry!!!!!

The Civil War has never ended. The rebels have passed on their ideology to each generation and they continue to use every opportunity they can to claw it back. It’s really a sad state of affairs and many don’t realize they’re being used to the rebels ends
Higher inflation is coming for all of us. There will be less rate cuts because of it. This will slow down a lot of market momentum.
I would think they’d keep more than four linebackers but overall I think you’re spot on.
Tremendous crossover move right here:
First of all you have to have 2-3 things you fight tooth and nail for like healthcare for all. Second you can’t get distracted by wedge issues that create infighting, stay on topic and leave those wedge issues to the courts or time will tell. Third, fight with any weapon brought to the ring, touché.
