🚨SPECIAL ELECTION - FLORIDA STATE HOUSE DISTRICT 40🚨 Democrat: RaShon Young Election Date: 🗓️THIS TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 2ND🗓️ Area: Orlando area Note: After the hateful garbage DeSantis pulled outside of the Pulse nightclub, we need Orlando to show up to this election in force.
I’m here at BWI Airport to say, “Hey hey, ho ho! Avelo and ICE have got to go!” #AveloOutofBWI
Probably remodeling for an in-house dialysis or IV therapy space.
"Every one of these people is taking with them skills and knowledge that will be difficult to replace. But there may be no single individual whose departure better captures what is being lost and destroyed than Demetre Daskalakis."
Literally.
Surely Sean O’Brien has something to say…wait, I’m hearing Black women are a big cohort here…never mind www.nytimes.com/2025/09/01/u...
Per White House pool report: Trump “has visited golf courses he owns on 66 of the 225 days of this term…”
More of this please
Hey Congress – make Alex Acosta's testimony public and televised. There's absolutely no ethical reason for it to be private and transcribed. Nefarious AF. We need to hear your questions. We want to see him squirm. We need to see him squirm. Yet another sign of a cover-up.
This should be getting far more attention from the media, and it should be investigated as a hate crime. A 14-year-old Black teen was targeted, beaten, and dehumanized with racial slurs by white teens while people stood around cheering. 1/4
Six deaths from rabies have been reported over the last 12 months in the U.S., the highest number in years, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
I'm just gonna flip on some corporate media really quick... ABC: ads CNN: ads Back to CNN: Trump's Chicago "immigration enforcement" MSNBC: Protests in Chicago Back to ABC: A "federal judge getting in the way of Trump's immigration crackdown" Back to CNN: Weekend travel Nothing about Trump MIA
Gonna keep reposting this @timdickinson.bsky.social / me item: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...
Yeah why not, since he’s already made it as worthless as the gold bric-a-brac he sticks on the walls of the Oval Office.
This is Project 2025. The plan is to use taxpayer money to fund Christian schools‼️
😳…is this what voting will be like…😳
Whee!
Long the envy of the world for its capabilities and expertise, the CDC finds itself no longer able to advocate for what its scientists believe the best available research shows. @citizencohn.bsky.social on the CDC purge: www.thebulwark.com/p/kennedy-rf...
Had a Dem POTUS run up the debt to $37 T, started a trade war, killed job growth, tried to fire a fed governor to trigger a flood of easy money, fired experts who contradicted him, & went on with conspiracy theories, Dems would have activated the 25th Amendment. open.substack.com/pub/contrari...

Virginia Giuffre should have turned 42 this year, but her life was stolen by predators who preyed on her as a child and as a teen. She was brave, resilient and gave other survivors hope. We honor her spirit, her fight and demand justice for every victim of trafficking. social.demcast.com/s/WEVRrXIk
The bleak honesty of this image just absolutely breaks my heart

I’m thrilled that @climate.us exists, and also devastated that it is needed. Thank you for rescuing our data. Science and facts will survive this administration because of projects like this.
youtube.com/shorts/81UQf... The People v MAGA. It’s about getting our democracy back and shutting down authoritarianism, fascism and oligarchy. Adversity makes strange bedfellows. It’s what we need so we can argue our policy stances again in a democratic framework. #TakeBackOurDemocracy
Good Morning Happy Labor Day President Biden Honoring and Acknowledging American Workers "The Heart and Soul of our Nation" Just a few minutes ago Trump...nada..nothing... Enjoy your day Celebrate Workers #UnionStrong #LaborDay

I mean, making up shit is a job, isn’t it? And I suppose that spurs the fact checking industry 🤷🏻♂️.

"If you don’t want to tear it down and start from scratch, you’re part of the problem. If you *do* want to tear it down and start from scratch, congratulations, you’re hired." Not much more to it than that.
🚨BREAKING: President Donald Trump said in a weekend social media post he plans to issue an executive order to impose voter ID requirements. And he reiterated his desire to ban mail voting. The president lacks the authority to take either step. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
The truth about how much money musicians can make on streaming platforms. If you see local musicians playing live... Go out and support them. 🎵🥁🎸🎹🎤🤘 #Musiciansky #Musicsky #Blueskymusic #indiemusic
It’s kind of like referring to Hitler as an artist or Sweeney Todd as the neighborhood barber.

Alex Acosta set to face Congress over sweetheart deal that allowed Epstein to plead guilty to minor state charges www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...
I’ve thought about what the US would look like if signs like this commemorating SA and DV were posted where these harms had occurred. There would be no place without a sign.
If we don’t stand up for these victims, who will ?
Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss got his Mercedes, etc to pay for the judgement against him, so I’m wondering what he was driving and how he paid for it.
FEDERAL AGENTS TAKE NOTE… It’s not just Chicago standing strong. Other blue cities and governors are ready to unite against Trump’s federal invasion. I’m not an attorney, but this point seems huge: if federal agents break state or city laws, they can prosecuted. And Trump cannot pardon them.
I wonder where he got the money for another car since he turned over his Mercedes to Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss and he’s supposedly broke.
Staffing Cuts Hit Washington, D.C.'s National Mall and Memorial Parks Particularly Hard open.substack.com/pub/thenatio...
Well, probably just an accident, or was he supposed to testify at the Epstein hearings?
Robert Mueller was diagnosed with Parkinson’s in 2021. We’re just learning about it now because he was asked to testify in the Epstein matter and won’t be able to. Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2025/08/31/u...
I remember Miss DaVinci who was my 9th grade Social Studies teacher at Hamilton Jr High School in Baltimore. Part of the curriculum was Civics where we learned about the constitution and the separation of powers, as well as State and Local gov’t We were taught how to recognize propaganda.
Emmer does remember why he did not vote for the Safer Communities Act because the $261,530 he received from Gun Rights advocates is clouding his memory. He chose money over children. #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue #Pinks
“We’re certainly not going to accept a character reference from Ghislaine.”
NEW: Since corporate media won't call for Trump's resignation, I will. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/trump-must...
This is a plan for ethnic cleansing. It’s morally horrific and absolutely insane
An Israeli Official Was Arrested in Vegas For Trying to Have Sex With a Child: Why Was He Allowed to Flee to Israel? How come Trump, Republicans, Democrats & corporate media aren't covering the scandal of the summer? open.substack.com/pub/thelefth...
Trump limits National Guard assignments to 29 days at a time to keep the called up service members from getting healthcare and housing benefits while on duty. And the NG troops are catching on. Stereotypical Trump. Don't give those losers and suckers an extra dime. www.rawstory.com/trump-infuri...
I’m thinking that he was picked up by RFK Junior and dropped off with a bicycle in Central Park.
Judge Blocks Flights Sending Hundreds of Children Back To Guatemala “It is a dark & dangerous moment for this country when (Trump) chooses to target orphaned 10-year-olds and deny them their basic legal right to present their case before a judge” www.politico.com/news/2025/08...
What the mainstream media isn’t reporting is that he was picked up by RFK Junior and dropped off with a bicycle in Central Park.
Well, probably just an accident, or was he supposed to testify at the Epstein hearings?
He’s providing them with valuable mulching experience though.
NEW: The trump administration attempted to remove 600 terrified unaccompanied minors to Guatemala in the middle of the night on a holiday weekend. Judge Sooknanan stopped it. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/the-sookna...
Honestly I’m relieved he’s activity working to alienate the military because that’s who they’re depending on to shoot protesters after rigging the 2028 election
Exactly. It doesn't give him implicit authority, either.
Bizarre choice to make. 😒
"The lunatics are running the asylum."
But who’s in charge of the autopen?
NEW: "Long the envy of the world…the CDC finds itself no longer able to advocate for what its scientists believe the best available research shows….The agency has since January shed literally centuries' worth of collective experience through a combination of firings, retirements, and resignations."
Mark Zaid, an attorney who is representing Eisenstat and several other people on the list, said the revocation of the security clearances “literally has no rhyme or reason” and carried echoes of the McCarthy era. www.nbcnews.com/politics/nat...
So ICE sees its budget skyrocket, while ever single program designed to help America gets slashed. This is outrageous. Women, children and marginalized communities are growing increasingly unsafe by the day.
Country Going to Hell so I keep reading the hand basket
But who’s in charge of the autopen?
Imagine being this hateful. Florida should spend more money on its education system and less on trying to marginalize those who are marginalized.
Stephen Miller is melting down because he claims California ‘stole’ house seats by counting immigrants in the census. If immigrants were excluded, California, Texas, and Florida would all lose one seat! Red states benefit from undocumented immigrants! It’s not just California!
Is it my imagination, or has the murmuring about the autopen mysteriously vanished. 🤔
Trump a$$kisser, Benny Johnson, complains about alleged mistreatment when he was in D.C., while calling for entire neighborhoods to be bulldozed. 😡
@jollygoodginger.bsky.social is in DC with other vets right now standing up for democracy. He's playing General Milleys speech on repeat for them today 💜 #LoveTheVets!
#ProudBlue A censored Human Rights Report = a gift to dictators. The State Dept cut the truth out of its annual report. That’s not “streamlining”—that’s shielding abusers. If you can’t name atrocities, you’re complicit in them.
Trump spent part of his Saturday night posting that he wants to sign new executive orders aimed at voter ID and mail-in ballots. That would be unconstitutional. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

We are watching resegregation happen in real time. It's neo Jim Crow. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/31/u...
Overall, a combination of restrictive immigration policies, economic concerns, anti-Semitism, and political factors led to the refusal of Jews during this period. However, humanitarianism should have kicked in. America could have saved them.😔 #KeepItWoke #DedicatedToTam✡️🕊
Trump’s regime is requesting a federal judge to nullify a New York law targeting fossil fuel companies for their purported contribution to climate change. #ProudBlue #DemVoirce1
Makes sense in trump's world of, pick the worst candidate for a position and ram the nomination through Congress. The GQP has lost its collective soul. fortune.com/2025/08/29/w...
In the latest Texas redistricting hearings in Texas, maps were revealed to show Native American Tribes were split into multiple districts carving up Indigenous communities and weakening their voting power!! Texas Republicans have gerrymandered maps to divide and dilute their voices! 🤬
And it's another woman putting another person from this Administration in their place!

Thousands of Hurricane Helene victims are being evicted — less than a year after being displaced… And now, as FEMA crumbles, imagine what *future* victims of ecological disasters will have to endure
All decent of us are infuriated!! 🤮🤮😡😡
Trump’s DHS is recruiting a deportation army—$50K bonuses, propaganda posters, and a mission to hunt immigrants. It’s not law enforcement. It’s a fascist militia built with your tax dollars. social.demcast.com/s/H4epbHWX

Everyone in public health, healthcare and biomedical research has been screaming this for months. It’s time for RFK Jr to go. Everyone, please, please get on the phone to your members of Congress. Call them every day. This man is that dangerous.
