The problem(s) with Kristi Noem accusing CBS of ādeceptivelyā editing an interview "the interview was edited for time and that the full version, including the transcript, was published online, which doesnāt exactly sound like a cover-up" www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...
To think all of those MAGA believing they would get their answers from their glorious leader when he was knee deep in raping these girls, his name was all over the Epstein list.
As we begin September, Democracy Docket is tracking 139 voting and election cases is 40 states. 13 in Georgia 13 in North Carolina 10 in Texas 9 in Arizona 8 in Pennsylvania 8 in Wisconsin Democracy is on the docket! www.democracydocket.com
Pritzker: "I refuse to pretend that any of this is normal ... I refuse to fall into the pundit trap that demands we sacrifice vital constitutional rights if it's being done in the fake guise of fighting crime."
Pritzker: "When did we become a country where it's ok for the US 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?"
A shout-out to Portland, Little Rock, Ocean City, San Diego, Indianapolis, Salem, Denver, Asheville, and Pittsburgh!
Portland, Maine crowd as Democratic US Senate candidate Graham Platner takes the stage today.
After what her victims said about her, she should be imprisoned forever.
This is not reporting. This is propaganda.
Who needs Sharia when the Christian Nationalists are around?
GOP Rep claims Muslims in US want to impose "sharia law" as he literally pushes for his right wing "Christian" beliefs to be US law! Say no to religious law, say no to the GOP! My article: deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/gop-rep-wa...
Not surprised, you may need 2 border collies, Huskies are runners.
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 weāll never know. Think about that.
DESCRIPTION: self-described alpha male, wearing body armor, assault rifle, and wraparound sunglasses because heās āafraid of nothing.ā
Can the media STOP referring to Jeffrey Epstein as a āfinancierā? The money he made came from SEX TRAFFICKING MINORS, RAPING CHILDREN, and BLACKMAIL. He was NOT a financier. Iāve seen at least five stories from three outlets refer to him this way in the past week. This is the latest from the Times:
I like the rebrand.
You won't see this on the news. In fact, you may not see this anywhere. Residents of Washington D.C. march up 14th Street on Saturday August 30, 2025 chanting "Troops Go Home".
California stepping up.
Make no mistake, everything thatās happening in the United States is being significantly enabled by the right wing oligarch capture of media. Every other country needs to do everything possible to keep that from happening where they are. Including protecting the CBC from Poilievre here in Canada.
The deadly military that Hegseth wanted?
Media should hound him at least half as much as they hounded Biden. But they wonāt.
CHICAGOā¦
My wish is that he feels all the pain & suffering he has caused so many other families that had been looking to live in the US to improve the lives of their children.
My reporting uncovered the existence of DoJ training videos instructing FBI personnel on how to flag Trumpās name in the Epstein files. Iām suing to get the videos under FOIA. substack.com/@muellershew...
Pritzker: "No one in the administration -- the president or anybody under him -- has called anyone in my administration or me. It's clear that in secret they're are planning this invasion with US troops."
Wow, one of the first journalist I followed on twitter like 15 years ago.
Is this what I missed while I was at the range this afternoonā¦ā¦.. š¤£

Many up to a thousand Epstein victims, yet at least one client list mixed with a blackmail list and at least 1000 Johnās.
A mother is filing a $1 million claim after her 15-year-old son was held at gunpoint by immigration goons in Los Angeles.
š£ Ask for a minimum of 10 million, so they can settle for 1 or 2 million Taxes will take a chunk! šØALSO They are handing out "grants" w no conditions for a minimum of 100 Million to churches and NFP that no one heard before to tell on their parishioners and people they serve Drain theš²swampā¼ļø
My Mayor
I stand with Chicago. I stand with Mayor Johnson. šØ NEW: Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson just signed an executive order to resist Trumpās federal invasion and occupation of the city. Details in š§µ
Ghislaine Maxwell hinted at Epsteinās ties to Trump officials ā why wasnāt she pressed for names?
A judge dismissed the case, finding no probable cause after Florida police arrested a man as part of Ron DeSantisā crackdown over rainbow chalk ark memorializing the victims of the Pulse nightclub shooting in Orlando. More: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...
They should get used to it, tick tock māferās the time is coming.
DHS agents locked inside their compound in Los Angeles by activists.
So red hats might get disappeared with no due process?
There still remains a lot of clean up on aisle 5, 6, 7 forget it the whole damn store needs cleanup to prevent this.
Trump spotted not looking well hiding from the media, all media.
wmtw.com/article/main... He did nothing but help people, he certainly doesnāt have 34 felony convictions like 47 does.
No matter what @MarshaBlackburn keeps saying, itās not criminals theyāre targeting. www.cnn.com/2025/08/30/u...
Over 300 MILLION American citizen's files stolen by DOGE. Why can't 1 person with access steal the EPSTEIN Files? #LEAKtheEPSTEIN_Files
In a national poll, 9 out of 10 American flags prefer Governor Gavin Christopher Newsom.

REP. @brotherjones.bsky.social: āPeople want to give thoughts and prayers after a shooting, but itās a form of theological malpractice when you pray for something you have the power to change.ā
If Missouri Republicans mid-cycle redistrict and break the law, they will be sued. That is a promise and I don't bluff. Just ask Texas. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
We want to apologize if it feels like weāve been venting a lot lately. Itās just hard to ignore that nearly every move from this administration seems to be illegal, unlawful, or outright unconstitutional and yet nothing happens.
lol.
So heās close to death or dead from congestive heart failure, they are trying to keep their authoritarian presence with Stephen Miller and Vought.
We have too many morons trying to remove this Constitutional Republic, trying to remove the democracy part, erase our rights, why b/c we are back to an elite that believes they know better than all of us.
It isnāt Brandon Johnson he has to worry about.
Always telegraphing what is going on.
all over the place.

Yet Fox & every Republican attacks California.
Until it affects you personally, it just doesnāt seem real.
Donāt look away
Curious what the reasoning for this could possibly be. My first thought it that it was a Putin request
When will someone in the press corps if he had sex with 14 year old girls? Then phrase it, so you did rape children?
rare exception
Hey ABC and NBC don't fold like CBS did. Don't be CBS, we see that Trump is threatening to shutdown the major Networks with the FCC UNLESS HE HEARS "ALL PRAISE TRUMP" Well look at companies that need viewers and customers. You bend to Trump, you lose viewers. Rightwing only watches Fox so not those
Word is Trump already has covert forces tucked away in Greenland. Think about that. While Americans are arguing over gas prices...heās planting the seeds of a shadow empire on ice...proving Project 2025 isnāt just domestic. Itās global...and itās moving fast.
Hard to argue. presswatchers.org/2025/08/we-h...
Wow, The Daily Caller really needs to point out what was incorrect? That the woman was in the Subway? I don't get it, it can't be the sign, we all know that Trump was doing this.
THANK YOU, MR. PRESIDENT. YOU ARE OBVIOUSLY A MASTERMIND OF TRADE. WE ARE NOW PAYING THROUGH THE NOSE FOR OUR BASIC NEEDS. YOU BROKE YOUR PROMISE TO LOWER PRICES ON DAY ONE BUT YOU CAN KEEP YOUR PROMISE TO RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILE, SIR!!
You want change? Don't fall for the BS the Rightwing Politicians feed you, the gun epidemic can't be stopped over night but we can start to get the guns from these people that are just so dangerous, and then keep closing all the loopholes. Until we rarely see shootings like in the 1980's
A reporter breaks down on air.
Did people get his name, phone number to call family members as he was being kidnapped.
Accuracy before expedience that is all we are asking.

The Trump administration again petitioned the Supreme Court to block the use of billions in foreign aid. The administration urged the justices to overturn a lower court order that requires the government to spend the funds already appropriated by Congress.
THIS IS HOW CORRUPT GOP REPUBLICANS HAVE BECOME: In 1862 President Abraham Lincoln was instructed by Congress to return decorative elephant tusks to Department of the Interior; as it was an illegal profit / "emolument" from a foreign entity ( bribe/treason? ). GOP now CHEERS as Trump takes BILLION$$
The Billionaires have been waging economic warfare on the Middle Class since we finally grew a Middle Class in the 1950's. That was when we (I consider myself middle class) started to change the World for equal rights. The billionaires of their time were very angry.
FUCK YEAH SCIENCE arstechnica.com/science/2025...
All those States "Most Dangerous States" have very relaxed gun laws, all those states have people that are located in isolated communities.
Free? They were free before and less free with the National Guard in their city, a National Guard that has no direct purpose than what? Protect ICE hostage taking?
Breaking: According to Minneapolis police, two children ā ages 8 and 10 ā have been killed in the church shooting. 14 children and three adults injured. Minneapolis mayor Frey: "Don't just say this is about thoughts and prayers right now. These kids were literally praying."

I went through the same thing, I captured a sickly feral kitten with a botfly parasite. I had fed her outside and her sister for a couple weeks. We could not get near them. A day after we saw one was sick, I borrowed a trap and caught the kitten, then reset the trap, her sister walked in the trap.
I really love that idea, Social Security would be solvent until after the entire human race is gone and could no longer pay into it.
I know right!
4. Emoluments 5. Likely some insider trading or the scam crypto stuff, too.
I think there are at least 3 easily made impeachment cases with multiple instances under each heading 1. Impoundment 2. Illegal Firings 3. Violating court orders There are also immigration abuses, but the most meaningful of those probably tuck in under 3.
It will take getting more fiscally aware politicians in office like an Elizabeth Warren, while preventing the Trojan Horses in like Fetterman, Manchin & Sinema.
The Nobel Prize judges should have a permanent āblackballā list. We all know what murderous scum would be on the top of that list.
My work car is a Chevy Bolt, my wifeās work car is an VW ID.4 both EVās. If you use EVās for your day to day & own your home in a cold place like Chicago, install that home charger or 240 outlet. IL Comed will subsidize the install. Ford now pays for the install.
Until Citizenās United is overturned. Corrected by finally finishing the thought in writing instead of just in my head.
