That tracks.
Why did it reportedly take only 2 hours to get these children into a plane, but more than 24 hours to return them to safety?
He can pretend to be dead all he wants. I still want the Epstein files released.
We won’t notice it at first Maybe an outbreak of cholera in southwest Kansas goes undetected Perhaps the number of flu related deaths ticks up just a bit each year But-ultimately, inexorably-the destruction of the CDC will lead to countless deaths All because of two men Trump and RFK, Jr
There is no possible legitimate reason to do this. It’s what despots do. It’s petty. It’s dangerous. It’s unAmerican. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/08...
Yes.
Maybe they'll eventually regain their nerve, but for the moment, JB Pritzker appears to have single-handedly spooked the Trump administration into backing down with one 12-minute speech.
Trump on deploying the National Guard to Chicago: "I have the right to do anything I want to do. I'm the president of the United States."
This should be all over every news station.
AAARRRGHHH!!
Extortion is never pretty. BTW. Release the #EpsteinFiles.
Wait. He said what? As if a prerequisite to parenting was a Master's Degree in Math, English, Social Studies and Science?
Ya know, in his later years, whenever my dad had a UTI or any other kind of infection, he babbled as if he had just had a stroke. Just sayin' for no reason whatsoever ...
Dammit. I want to laugh but he is so dangerous!
That look of disgust when dinner isn't until 5pm and you've been told it's just 4:45
Trump wants to lock up people who desecrate the flag. Here he is violating the flag code by signing his name on it with a marker.
For votes?? Wow! How about for rights? How about for constitutionality?
💯💯💯
What the actual F? "Here's a picture of my very pretty girlfriend ..." This old man has lost it.
“The level of glee and enjoyment among those enforcing these policies, the outrageous investment in a detention and deportation infrastructure this administration is making, has made this an obsession of unfathomable cruelty and injustice.” — Rabbi Elyse Wechterman
BREAKING: The FBI raided the home of John Bolton, Trump’s former national security adviser turned fierce Trump critic. FBI Director Kash Patel tweeted, “No one is above the law… FBI agents on mission.” This is what authoritarianism looks like.
Fire in the hole: Indigenous crews blasting the Alaskan rainforest to save it. After a historic land buyback by the US Forest Service, Tlingit crew members are demolishing culverts to restore streams, salmon runs & cultural history in the Tongass national forest. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
Are these dead people in the room with you right now?
1. We have normalized having a toddler in the White House who uses random " marks ("HOTTEST"?). How is any of the below normal? How are we okay with this? 2. We have a president who doesn't want us to cover, in our museums "how bad Slavery was". Was it not bad? Imagine if Reagan had said this? FFS
Trump, on the advice of LAURA LOOMER, took away the security clearance of an undercover CIA operative. Congrats, MAGA. You're going to get Americans killed. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/19/u...
Where **IS** that laughing emoji when we need it? There is absolutely no self awareness, no mirror, no ownership in MAGA.
Home Depot is raising its prices because of *checks notes* tariffs. Weird.
As a former Texas State Rep, let me be clear: LOCKING Rep. Nicole Collier inside the chamber is beyond outrageous. Forcing elected officials to sign “permission slips” & take police escorts to leave? That’s not procedure. That’s some old Jim Crow playbook.
The absolute arrogance of this regime reflects their immaturity, lack of seriousness, and extreme insecurity.
I'm sure he's making his assertions upon the supposed claims by Putin on Friday. Tried it out on Hannity and now it sounds good to him. Because Putin Said So (BPSS)
Either they are highly unprofessional and incompetent or there's a creative mole in the group.
"Are you smarter than a 3rd grader" should be their new viewer audience.
JUST IN: Blistering ruling by Judge Ho on ICE arrests in immigration court. He says the Trump administration has turned attendance at immigration court proceedings into a game of "detention roulette" that violates due process. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
CNN says the Epstein & Trump-Epstein searches are down by 86% on Google. The conversation has shifted to Alaska & other topics just like Republicans wanted. Keep Googling "Epstein & Epstein & Trumps name together". Change the narrative back. #Epstein #Trump #TrumpWasOnTheIsland
NEW: US House Judiciary Cmte Democrats ask Justice Dept for records, transfer orders and any "waivers" from the prison transfer of Ghislaine Maxwell Committee Dems: "The American public should be outraged by the special treatment afforded to a pedophile and a criminally charged child sex offender"
How is it appropriate that she still has her job at FOX while working for the government?
NEW: Gavin Newsom makes major announcement
WTF.
Do you think Berman is privately thinking, "if you were here in the room with me, I'd Jethro Gibbs Slap you across the back of the head?"
I'm a bit astonished that this particular hee haw (no offense to the real Hee Haw stars) has become a spokesman for the MAGA movement.
It's difficult to live through, but I've often been thankful his chosen few are living proof that the Three Stooges were likely based off of their personalities!
Jeebus. So many MAGA speak with a religious fervor when talking about Trump's "policies." They're pretty scary!
"Hurling dildos at WNBA players had a very particular message: You may think you are elite athletes, but to us you are still here to be mocked & sexualized & demeaned. And when Don Jr. posted that image to his 9.7 million followers, he was saying *That’s what I think of you too, and so does my dad*"
We can hope that the DC Police are more principaled than our POTUS
Could he sound more like a B-rated movie about mob bosses? OMG.
Listening to this press conference it seems clear that Trump is mentally gone and that his team is consolidating power for President J.D. Vance.
He's working so hard for that "Noble" Peace Prize - probably a gold trophy or something.
History and Article IV’s Guarantee Clause makes clear that a state’s governor cannot remove members of the legislature. No governor has ever claimed such power. It runs against the full history of Texas and American democracy as a whole. open.substack.com/pub/democrac...
Misinformation is dangerous.
And if that's true, we want to know. Now do Republicans.
Oh, geez, Jamie. Even he doesn't believe what he's saying.

Dude. I am sure you will be losing so much sleep over the next ad campaign. 🤣
I totally understand. I grew up there so this is personal on many levels.
PERFECT!!!
Great. just. great.
Yikes! Am I the only person who fears for Alaska? Then again, do we think either one of them will really show up?
There comes a point where you have to be angry at the people who are feeding insane thoughts to people who lack the reasoning skills to work through all the conspiracies. I live in Atlanta, have a daughter at Emory and I am appalled at the hatred of Fauci and COVID. I just do not get it.
This is not normal. In every way large and small, this regime is taking us down a road that is very UnAmerican.
Republicans sure are pulling out all the stops to wield the government against Texas Democrats. Warrants, FBI, court processes. Not a second wasted. Goes to show that if they *wanted* to bring Epstein's clients to justice, they could. They just don't want to.

Of course it will! WTF. These jobs have always been available to US citizens; they just didn't want to do them.
This is the way.
New in PN: The GOP's gerrymandering frenzy is a sign of weakness "'We stood aside so Trump could shutter vital agencies, take your healthcare, and spend every last dime scooping up immigrants to get Stephen Miller his 3,000 arrests a day' is not exactly a rallying cry that will turn out voters."
Unconstitutional. But that has never stopped them. Would be fun to see him melt down over real numbers because I don't think they would be what he thinks they are.
I keep thinking "he's the worst of MAGA" and then I see Kristi somewhere and I'm like "no, she's the worst of MAGA," then I see JD on one of the shows and I'm like "no, he's the worst ..." They're just all so uniquely disqualifying for the positions they have and so disgustingly obsequious.
Unless you use the word "cult," there are very few other reasons anyone would gush out this kind of praise. Even the reach for power involves some strategic praise without this kind of emotional emphasis.
Damn ... where IS that eyeroll emoji??? 🙄
Circus music!! Perfection! LOL!
Beginning to believe that pedophiles and other sexual predators are attracted to the MAGA doctrine due to their complete disregard for law, lack of morals and decency, and their leadership that rewards this behavior.
I truly believe DOGE was about getting in, finding files that implement certain peoples of certain misdeeds and then deleting them from those places where transparency matters. It was never about efficiency or funding.
There is something very "hinky" going on here. Note the links to the last complete version. You can google "constitution.gov" and get to the current version of our Constitution which is far from complete. The specific "missing" articles and sections are pretty damning.
He speaks like a 4th grader that has just learned the use of the word "very."
Anything with Comer's name attached to it is just GOP theater. And we're talking off-off-off-way off-Broadway theater at that.
Uhm. I know 11 words and I'm going to use them all right now but without context, sentence structure, or relevance. See you Thursday.
Just gotta ask. Is there truly a need for nukes on the roof? I mean, here in Georgia, we got Goats on the Roof, but nukes?
She is nothing if not arrogant and audacious.
Absolutely right. Their projections always are their own reflection so good point!
What in the name of HIPPA rights violations is going on here?
Once again making laws by Executive Order. That's not how this whole democratic government is supposed to work, but, well, there's that whole cult thing going on in our House.
Dangit! Another "WTF Day" in the US.
Isn't that her main job? WTf ...
What the heck is he talking about?? Just wow.
I see why he bankrupted casinos.
Yup, this is indeed what happened.
The story of how Trump sells access to the White House - to benefit himself and his family financially and to benefit his political operation - is shocking and sordid. No President has ever monetized access like Trump has. 1/ It's a story you need to know.
This is important. So much corruption. He wont give up this type of access to wealth easily.
Trump, Maxwell, and everyone in the list (this includes all Democrats) need to be charged with murder for every single victim that committed suicide.
It was a flinging-shoes-at-the-news sort of day. These criminals have a powerful propaganda machine that knows how to frame their message for those who desperately want to believe.
Republicans thought they were getting people who would expose the Deep State pedophiles with Trump, Bongino and Patel. Instead, they got their protectors. Maxwell just got rewarded with a nicer prison, and in exchange, the pedophiles stay concealed. Hell of a legacy, fellas.
Firing the head of the Bureau of Labor Statistics over a bad jobs report undermines government integrity and sends a chilling message to federal employees: tell POTUS what he wants to hear or else. www.nytimes.com/live/2025/07...

#BlueskyResistance #Voices4Victory #ProudBlue I second that emotion.
When Rep. Tim Burchett gets backed into a corner over Epstein, the "dadgums" come flying
Say her name. Virginia Giuffre. It is way past time that we listen to the victims and hold their attackers accountable.
Of COURSE he did. Of course. There is no end to the bad decisions he can make in a single lifetime.
Yeah. My first thought was this makes her easier to access.
We need to keep Senator Jon Ossoff working for Georgia and all Americans! It’s said that he’s MAGA’s #1 target! Donate here: electjon.com substack.com/@demwinsmedi...
