BREAKING: Looks like Rudy Giuliani was NOT helping a DV victim at the time of the accident. Article states troopers & firefighters, already on the scene for a separate domestic violence incident across the interstate, witnessed the crash and rendered aid. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...
Now his security guard wants us to stop saying he’s lying 😂😂
I love that the police report outed the lie stating troopers & FD were on the scene for a seperate incident “across the interstate” and noted it was Ragusa who said Giuliani was helping the DV victim. 🙃
Vance knew; hence all the fam trips before the switcheroo
POPE LEO: “Let us plead God to stop the pandemic of arms, large and small, which infects our world.” He prays for the victims in Minneapolis, and “the countless children killed and injured every day around the world”
If all the documents were released, all the records, all the interviews, if every shred of paper written on the Epstein sex trafficking operation were released tomorrow, there would still be horrific things we’ll never know. Think about that.
DOL is trying to take away minimum wage and overtime from millions of workers. Just thought I’d mention that.
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...
As a friend recently put it: the venn diagram of people who assured us the gun violence was worth it because we need the guns to protect ourselves against a tyrannical federal government and the people cheering on Trump as he deploys the military to take over American cities is a circle

Why do we have insurance companies?
He has Peter Thiel. This means obscene amounts of money and insane amounts of personal data.
Thou shalt not end vaccines. God will not save you from plague. The Middle Ages should’ve made that very clear.
No candidate interviewing for medical school who, upon expressing RFK jr's views, would ever be accepted. They'd be laughed right out of the room. And yet this man runs the HHS – including the CDC, NIH, ACF, CMS, HRSA, and SAMHSA? WTAF?! Remove RFK jr for dereliction of duty. Immediately.
There’s a special place in hell for morons who get millions of people killed.
The Christian values of the right? Which guardrails? Pedophilia? Adultery? Do they welcome the stranger? What do they do for the least among us? Jesus says to love one another. Is ICE doing that? The GOP is only helping billionaires.
Will Smith with the Hail Mary solo home run to close out the game! Dodgers win!!
VAMOOOOS DODGERS NICEEEEE WILL SMITH MEU DEUS TE AMO
Will Smith said "I'll fix this bullshit" and hits a walk off home run! #Dodgers
My favorite catcher #16 WILL SMITH does it AGAIN! 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙 #WalkOff #Dodgers #LetsGoDodgers
He won’t let the press anywhere near him. This is getting weirder and weirder.
In other words, a corrupt contract. Trump cronies will have ownership in the company.
A fortuneteller tells Trump: “You will die on the biggest and most celebrated national holiday.” Trump replies: “How do you know?”
They’re doing all this to prevent people from MEMORIALIZING A MASS SHOOTING
when he does finally go i will demand not just the death certificate but the long form death certificate
This is the most compelling case I’ve seen yet that America is no longer a democracy but an authoritarian state. Not a *soon-to-be* authoritarian state—a *current* one.
Who voted for war with Venezuela?
“Violent illegal aliens” 🙄They’re grabbing the ice cream man, high school students, gardeners off the streets of the USA while giving private escort across the Mexico-CA border to family members of the Sinaloa cartel who murdered DEA agent m.youtube.com/watch?v=zvjB...
Sadly, this onion headline will never get old
“ILLEGALS” MY ASS! Green card holder Rami Othmane speaks out after being snatched off the street by ICE while driving to the grocery store. He’s a documented immigrant and the husband of Dr Wafaa Alrashid, chief of staff at a local hospital. He was locked in detention for 13 days.
Remove RFK Jr for dereliction of duties. Immediately.
I'm having salad for dinner. Actually, it's fruit salad. Well, mostly grapes. OK, all grapes. Fermented Grapes. Wine. I'm having wine for dinner.
May we all find some inspiration in the goodness of children.
An activist has started using artificial intelligence to identify ICE agents beneath their masks — a use of the technology sparking new political concerns over AI-powered surveillance. Can Washington do anything about it?
Once again, Border Patrol tells the press this was a targeted kidnapping, yet they took a man who is legally here & in the immigration process. This shows that it was not a targeted investigation as they claimed. Press must stop printing lies. apnews.com/article/immi...
#ABHORRENT
We were warned by Washington, Lincoln and others. Now we must oppose this authoritarian regime, firmly voice our commitment to the Constitution and rule of law—and assert what it means to be American. www.americaamerica.news/p/its-villai...
As the son, grandson and nephew of foreign service officers, I will second his emotion. www.theatlantic.com/magazine/arc...

Well this is sobering : “produce prices could rise 50% to 100% by early next year as inventories clear and new contracts kick in” < fortune.com/2025/08/28/t... >
Republicans are trying desperately to consolidate power into a full-fledged dictatorship.
Every time your electricity bill goes up for the next 10 years, it can be traced back to this Administration’s 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.
FINALLY
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 do not recognize my loving country anymore. This president foments hatred, racism, xenophobia. WE MUST ALL STAND UP TO THIS.
We want to apologize if it feels like we’ve been venting a lot lately. It’s just hard to ignore that nearly every move from this administration seems to be illegal, unlawful, or outright unconstitutional and yet nothing happens.
one of those nights when I’m SO thankful for the Blues #TabBenoit

While Trump goes backward on clean energy development, California pushes forward in building an affordable, clean energy future. I signed a new executive order to maintain our progress in adding clean electricity to our power grid while protecting thousands of good-paying jobs.
Excellent question.
Far-flung powers trying to exert authority over Boston haven't fared well historically
“[Bill] Pulte got his job in the administration about three years after his wife, Diana Pulte, donated $500,000 to a super PAC backing Trump. The donation was channeled through a Delaware shell company, ML Organization LLC, that Bill Pulte controlled.”
In a two week period: Trump fired 7 of the 8 members who do independent federal oversight on nuclear waste. Peter Thiel (Palantir) is found to be backing the first privately developed uranium enrichment facility in the US.
Here he goes.
I mean, nothing matters any more, but it's worth pointing out that preventing demagogic leaders from controlling the money supply was one of the *central issues in the American Revolution*.
I wonder why Bill Pulte didn’t send this case over to DOJ with a criminal referral along with his selective targeting of Adam Schiff and Lisa Cook? apnews.com/article/paxt...
The fun would be watching Chump's reaction to it. 🤯 #ReleaseTheEPSTEIN_Files
Mike Johnson makes clear that when Congress returns next week he's going to work tirelessly to cover up the Epstein files
The next days and months and years will demand from all of us great courage — and solidarity. Be prepared.
Ashli Babbitt was a grown ass adult who chose to break into an unauthorized area during an insurrection against the repeated warnings of law enforcement. She ignored those warnings and got killed through no one's fault but her own. She was a traitor. She doesn't deserve full military honors.
Republicans are trying to redraw congressional district lines to keep their grip on Congress in the midterms and beyond. Voters should pick their politicians, not the other way around. Get involved with the @democraticredistricting.com as they fight back: bit.ly/3HJ1ayW
Massive walkout underway at CDC. RFK jr. must resign so that we can be safe.
THOU SHALT STOP WORSHIPPING GUNS!!!
every single citizen, too
GOV. @gavinnewsom.bsky.social : “Facts are stubborn things… Mississippi, Tennessee, Arkansas…. Alabama is a top 3 murder state. Where is the President? — He isn’t focused on crime & violence. It’s about an expression of authoritarianism.” (H/T @acyn.bsky.social )
The Great Climate Insurance Collapse is coming. This mapping follows my work as chair of the Senate Budget Committee. Republicans refused to acknowledge this was real, fussed about national debt, to which they then added $4 trillion. Total phonies.
Ashli Babbitt was a traitor. It’s sad she was led down that path by Trump, but she died a traitor, and if the USA is still here in another 250 years, she’ll still be a traitor. Honoring her treason dishonors every man and woman who ever wore the uniform and insults every single loyal American.
The right has collectively mourned Ashli Babbitt more than every kid that’s ever died in a mass shooting combined.
Ashli Babbitt getting any sort of recognition from the armed forces is an insult to every man and woman whose ever taken their oath. Fucking shameful.
I grew up in an Air Force family. My dad retired as a Lt. Col. It is infuriating to see Ashli Babbitt receive military funeral honors as the result of dying in an attempt to aid Trump's self-coup attempt. This is 1984-style revisionism. War is Peace, Freedom is Slavery. Insurrection is Patriotism.
Isn't tRump the real reason Ashli Babbitt got killed?
The US Air Force giving a traitor, draped in a partisan flag, a honorable funeral after attacking the legislature of the government they were sworn to protect. If the US military is willing to do that, what else would they would be willing to do for Trump? That's the real Ashli Babbitt headline.
A couple of months ago, the Navy dishonored civil rights hero Harvey Milk by removing his name from a ship. Now, the Air Force is dishonoring itself by celebrating a domestic terrorist called Ashli Babbitt.
Cost of Trump's D.C. Occupation: $1.1M per day. Cost to operate public housing for D.C.'s entire homeless population: $169,226 per day. It's not about what this country can or can’t afford. It’s about priorities.
A game? You mean series 😎 💙 But I definitely hear ya. #LetsGoDodgers
okay thanks dodgers for having a game that wasn’t a total root canal
And with that Dodgers win, the strangest streak of the year comes to an end: the Reds are finally swept in a series.
The Los Angeles Dodgers sweep the 2025 Cincinnati Reds.
RECAP: The #Dodgers became the 1st team to sweep the Reds this season behind a strong performance from Shohei Ohtani and the pitching staff. dodgerblue.com/recap-shohei...
In March, Trump’s OMB quietly took down its apportionment website—hiding how taxpayer dollars are being spent. A court order forcing them to restore that data is a huge transparency win, but it raises a bigger question: what else is the administration hiding?
Yikes! The CDC has quietly scaled back its FoodNet surveillance, now only tracking salmonella and STEC. Monitoring for Listeria, Campylobacter, Vibrio and other pathogens has stopped- even after last year’s deadly Listeria outbreak. buff.ly/OyTTIOA h/t @boghuma.bsky.social #medsky #IDsky 🛟🧪
I hope the COVID vaccines would at least be available through employee health for healthy HCWs this winter: 1. A vaccinated health workforce reduces nosocomial spread of respiratory viruses 2. No hospital wants Drs and nurses out sick with COVID during peak utilization healthcare months.
Good to see @bsky.app has emerged as the social media platform of choice for science stuff arstechnica.com/science/2025...
This administration of extremists, quacks, and grifters continues to endanger the lives and health of millions
“The recent change in the adult and children’s immunization schedule threaten the lives of the youngest Americans and pregnant people.” This should be one of the biggest scandals in America right now. And every Democrat should be loudly calling for RFK Jr’s resignation
Whoa. *needle scratch*
1) This dangerous lunatic is spouting Naomi Wolf-like woo-woo bullshit. 2) A president in his right mind would fire this dangerous lunatic. 3) A non-chickenshit Congress would impeach and remove this dangerous lunatic. 4) Instead, this dangerous lunatic is attacking the CDC. Right now. Tonight.
It’s outrageous that Sec. Kennedy is trying to fire the CDC Director — after only a few weeks on the job — for her commitment to public health & vaccines. The Sen. HELP Committee must hold a hearing with Kennedy & the CDC Director as soon as possible. Vaccines save lives. Period.
The statement from @kamalaharris.com on the senseless mass shooting at Annunciation Catholic School and the need for action on gun safety.
The murder of little angels at Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis - and so many other places - by people with assault weapons (or any other firearm) is a "national sin.” This is not a mere political issue. It is a defining moral one.
