Portland, Maine crowd as Democratic US Senate candidate Graham Platner takes the stage today.
Send the military to a grocery store to lower our costs. Not the Georgetown Lululemon.
🚨CHICAGO—Emergency Protest Plan
8/31/25: Massive music festival has erupted right yesterday in Washington D.C. against the Trump regime. Don't bother checking cable news... they're not showing it. Who's streets? Our streets!!
Jair Bolsonaro must be tried for his crimes and punished if found guilty. Next year, Brazil’s election should be fought over broad institutional reforms, such as reining in its supreme court. In practice, none of this will be easy
Taking away or raising the cost of healthcare is not politically popular, and even some of the people doing it are realizing that
I'm tired of this theater where Donald Trump asks Republicans to do something, they seem to push bank and then cave. The only two factions of the current GOP are proud MAGA and scared MAGA. Anyone who thinks Republicans are acting in good faith is delusional.

America is presenting itself to legacy media for examination and diagnosis. And like a dysfunctional healthcare system, the media is identifying individual symptoms and missing the disease. Read the latest from @lcsenecal.bsky.social for Lincoln Square: www.lincolnsquare.media/p/legacy-med...
Unions built this city and keep it running. They’ve fought against power and greed to make the impossible possible. Now, they need an ally in City Hall. On Labor Day, the presidents of the Hotel Trades Council, 32BJ and SEIU 1199 make the case at @cityandstateny.bsky.social.
Oh, yes, he did! www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
Stunning footage of a rare dark coloured deer, with estimates suggesting they make up less than 1% of all deer.
He won’t let the press anywhere near him. This is getting weirder and weirder.
"Nobody wants to be a cop [in DC]. They were abused. They were spit on." "When you when you say they were abused and spit on, I'm assuming you're talking about January 6th, correct?" "All you guys want to do was bring up J6 about the answer to everything."
🚨 BREAKING NEWS 🚨 Trump confirmed alive. Nation lowers flags to half-staff.
We analyzed hundreds of hours of his public comments from 2020-2024 to show this and refer to him as an anti-vaccine activist in our reporting. www.washingtonpost.com/health/2025/...
Public safety in California is on the rise. Last year, California had the second-lowest homicide rate since at least 1966, decreasing by nearly 12% overall since 2023. We're going to drive that progress forward up and down the state.
Tulsi Gabbard's "slip-up' of publicly outing of an undercover CIA officer is more than a mistake—it's an act of betrayal. This leak doesn't just end one person's career; it puts lives at risk, compromises intelligence networks, and weakens America's security abroad. www.nbcnews.com/politics/nat...
Get these immigrants out of our country💥
Trump and the GOP are hellbent on killing our kids. Whether it’s no gun control or defunding pediatric brain cancer research/trials. Our kids deserve better than Trump and his feckless Republicans.
BREAKING: Congresswoman Maxine Waters just called for Trump’s cabinet to invoke “Article 25” of the Constitution to remove him from office. “Something's wrong with this president!" Who agrees?
He’s not wrong.
This! 💯
The damage this man has done is incalculable.

@gavinnewsom.bsky.social PLEASE announce that CA will hire the CDC staff and keep it running to give guidance and advice to the BLUE states, and that those states will act in accordance with those recommendations. ACTIONS speak louder than words, even if the words are in all caps.
I’m looking forward to watching Lame Duck Ron Desantis’s attempts to gain traction to revive his dead end political career as a private citizen using money he has to raise himself rather than pissing away taxpayer funds and abusing govt power.
OMG this cracked me up!

Disgraceful.
Chump's Military Parade was a Disaster, just like the Rest of His Autocratic,Chaotic Authoritarian Regime is......
The new ICE song by Jesse Welles nails it. ICE isn’t recruiting heroes, it’s recruiting the bitter, the rejected, the ones desperate for a badge to cover their failures. Losers with power become the most dangerous kind. (c/o Caroline Codsi)
Your timely reminder: All 45 Democrats in the Senate (and both Independents who caucus with the Democrats) voted no on confirming murderously incompetent anti-science child killer RFK Jr. But 52 Republicans voted yes. They care nothing for America's health. www.cnn.com/2025/02/13/p...
What real leadership looks like. Thank you, President Barack Obama, for standing strong with California, defending our rights, and fighting for the people of this nation.

Hello, everyone. Today, thanks to @sbg1.bsky.social and @newyorker.com, I learned a new word. The word is: "butt-snorkeler."
Reminder RFK Jr drove his wife to suicide
Between RFK decimating the CDC, normalizing Ashli Babbitt & the umpteenth school shooting... I'm losing the will to post. #ReleaseTheEPSTEIN_Files

Newsom: "I don't think Trump wants another election." Trump doesn’t believe in free & fair elections. "This guy doesn't believe in free and fair elections,"he tried to wreck this country. Were you there? Jan. 6." “He tried to light democracy on fire” WAKE UP AMERICA. We will lose our country 👇🏻

It shouldn't be up to American children to save each other from getting shot. It's the job of American adults to stop shootings from happening in the first place. Ban assault weapons again now.
I woke up with a CRAZY scary stupid thought: Maybe I should run for Congress against Steny Hoyer. Dude’s been in office since 1981. He’s in his late 80s. If I do it, I’ll run as a progressive independent caucusing with, but not controlled by Dems. And I will NOT take PAC money of any kind.
70 years ago, on this date, Emmett Till was kidnapped and brutally murdered by white men. His family, including his cousin who was with him at the time, is repeating the train ride he took from Chicago to Mississippi in 1955 to mark the anniversary

Dr. William Foege, 89, who helped end smallpox in the 1970s, recently wrote: RFK Jr.’s “words can be as lethal as the smallpox virus.” And his actions are more lethal still. He’s waging war on America. That’s an impeachable offense. He must be removed from office. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/27/h...
This is very bad news. Louisiana won't even defend its own map in SCOTUS. It abandoned its own Black voters. Those of us committed to defending the VRA are now entirely on our own. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

BREAKING: Vanity Fair staffers threatened to walk-out if the magazine puts Melania Trump on the cover.
I’ve been briefed on a shooting at Annunciation Catholic School and will continue to provide updates as we get more information. The BCA and State Patrol are on scene. I’m praying for our kids and teachers whose first week of school was marred by this horrific act of violence.
You know, these people are supposedly adults, very well educated, and have achieved a modicum of success in their lives. Why pray tell, would they be so easily willing to be such obvious lame toadies for all the world to see? Have they no self-respect?
The only thing more disgraceful than having groveling cabinet members so willing to debase themselves in this shameless way is having such a damaged, insecure, and needy president that they know desperately needs to hear this BS.
Iowa tonight is exactly why Republicans are redrawing their maps.

They realize that and that’s why they wear masks.
Krasner: So, if what you have is a group of ICE agents, or even the military, coming into Philadelphia and committing crimes—assaults that are illegal, kidnapping, unlawful restraint, obstruction of the administration of justice—they can be prosecuted.
Good morning Bluesky. "Government of any sort – including democracy – does not possess more wisdom or justice than its individual citizens, and that it is every citizen’s responsibility to avoid acquiescence."- Henry David Thoreau
This isn’t governance; it’s conquest. By labeling the only major opposition political party as extremists, Miller lays the groundwork for justifying state violence against dissenters.

Transcript: The Media Should Be Biased—Against Authoritarianism flip.it/_jhe6B
The military is not a police force, and should never be deployed in American communities against their will. That the President doesn't understand this (or simply doesn't care) shows just how grossly unfit for office he is.
