Aaaand they have zero plans to fix it. Put the CEO in charge of the Board, and promoted the guy who helped craft the plan that we’re all not falling for. Lesson NOT LEARNED.

Stumped? Starts with a “C”- and ends with an -“ism” ?
Because nothing says “you should feel free to come visit Washington” like standing in front of dozens of armed soldiers next to a guy who thinks women shouldn’t be able to vote 🙃
Rep. Vince Perez: Under this map, a Hispanic Texan's vote counts about one-third, and a Black Texan's just one-fifth, compared to a white Texan's.
I’d love it, but they won’t.
Oh, he’s totally a plant. Trump is the patsy. See the Rockbridge Network. He’s Petey Thiel’s pet weasel.
Gavin does Donny better than Donny does.
The DOJ sandwich thrower as it turns out is a much decorated active duty staff Sergeant in the Marines. He identified himself immediately and offered to self surrender to the felony charge, but they sent 20 officers to arrest him. What a debacle it would be if the grand jury declines to indict.

Crazy world we live in - where a kidnapper, a murderer, a dictator, and a war criminal gets the red carpet treatment, while his victims get dragged just ’cause their country’s at war and their president isn’t in a suit. #FUCKPUTIN #FUCKTRUMP
DC right now!!!! 8-15-25 We love this music festival. Free DC ✊
G’damn. Mfkr is kneeling on the woman. Her shoulders are pressured in a very unnatural position. These ppl don’t have any regard for the people they’re seizing. Sadistic bunch of thugs deserve to be tried and imprisoned.
This tow truck driver is a true hero! He bravely took their vehicle while ICE GOONS were in the midst of kidnapping.
Federal Agent in D.C.: “Proud Boys? They’re great guys. They love the United States.” This is who Trump is sending into our cities to terrorize Black & Brown communities. Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DNZldGb...
@other98.bsky.social
A CT state rep posted a story about reports of ICE activity in his district and asked neighbors to "look out for another" and contact advocacy groups. Libs of TikTok posted it, calling for him to be charged and tagging ICE & DHS. ICE shared it, tagging the Justice Dept. This is protected speech.
FOX REPORTER: “The way it felt in the room was not good. It did not seem like things went well. It seemed like Putin came in and steamrolled, got right into what he wanted to say, got his photo next to the president, then left.”
MAHER: "Russiagate was not completely made up… It's on tape. He's asking the Russians for help, he says hack some shit, and they did it that day. So don’t tell me there’s no smoke.”
@gavinnewsom.bsky.social: "Let's go. This is it. We need to wake up. We cannot survive if he rigs not just Texas, but he goes to Indiana, goes to Missouri, goes to Ohio, goes to Florida. We have to have other governors of like mind, and there are many, to now do something, not just say something."

Disgusting.
@jamestalarico.bsky.social: "We're here in IL, the land of Lincoln... When he was a state senator in 1840, broke quorum by jumping out of a window in the statehouse. I believe my colleagues and I are participating in a long tradition of standing up to bullies, civil disobedience, of good trouble."
NY GOV. KATHY HOCHUL: “If we refuse to fight for our democracy, we’re doomed to lose it… bullies in Texas are not going to intimidate us.”

FLOODING THE ZONE Release the #TrumpsteinFiles #Epstein #EpsteinFiles #EpsteinList
The Oversight Committee subpoenaed the DOJ for the Epstein files. They now have 2 weeks to release the files to the committee. It’s time to find out who’s been protected, who thought they were above the law, and who’s been hiding behind power.
Jessica: I also heard no complaints when Mike Johnson decided to abdicate his job to say actually congress isn't in session anymore because I don't want to have to vote on turning over the Epstein files…. so be equal opportunity in your complaints about fleeing your job
If he's somehow allowed to run again, there's only one suitable candidate to run against him: BARACK OBAMA. #PoeticJustice ⚖️

Carl Sagan explains how the ancient Greeks knew the Earth was round and calculated its circumference over 2,000 years ago.
I’d love to share, but for some reason skylight won’t allow it. Been off for a while. Hope they work this out tori@skylight.social.
Farage should never be interviewed without being forced to answer for failures of Brexit. That the man whose lies fuelled Brexit vote which has cost UK Billions & who said Liz Truss budget was “best Tory budget since 1986” could be trusted on *anything* is mind-boggling #bbclaura

@jamestalarico.bsky.social: "Before I went on Rogan's podcast, I went on Fox... I'm trying to go into places where Dems don't typically go because politics is about addition, not subtraction. If you want to maintain a pure, insular group, you don't want a political party, you want a social club."
We weren’t just making it up when we said women needed to vote like their lives depended on it in 2024. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

45 minutes ago in LA. Peaceful is good. Don’t give the N**zis any excuse. Well played Los Angeles. 📢🪧 #CANADA #USA #LA
In the last 20 or so minutes I’ve seen LAPD officers shove women to the ground without provocation, rip a sign out of a man’s hand and then swing a baton into his leg and raise a less-lethal launcher to aim directly at a protester (which I’m 99% is a major policy violation.)
We found out that ICE is staying at the AC hotel in #Pasadena and now there's a couple of hundred people protesting #NoICE
Remember when Noem was all Posse Comitatus about activating MT NatGuard? Yeah, that’s gone.
There is no mass-deportation campaign going on right now. Deportation is a process. This is kidnapping and human trafficking.
Rep. Gomez: LA County alone is 34% foreign born, 34%. So when he says they're going to liberate us, who is he going to liberate us from? Ourselves?
Goldman: Both of the issues Marjorie Taylor Greene raised—were widely publicized and thoroughly debated in committee and on the House floor. If you’re publicly admitting that you didn’t know what you were voting on and now regret it—you’re not competent or qualified to serve in Congress.
Yeah, I’m in Minneapolis, he lied about here as well. Our biggest problem were the racist agitators that came across the Mississippi R bridges attacking neighborhoods at night w Molitovs, and trying to break stuff. No lic plates, dressed in black, then retreating back to WI when LEOs pursued.
Hello. I live in Los Angeles. The president is lying.
Fox noise is the putin propaganda channel 😳 youtu.be/L8tu3aX1-8k?...
BREAKING: Kamala Harris issues statement on Los Angeles.
LA congresspeople are saying that ICE deployed chemical agents. They are standing at the LA detention center trying to do their jobs, which includes oversight.
Trump said Jan 6th was a "normal tour day" and refused to call in backup. Multiple police officers were badly injured and killed. Now he says peaceful protests in LA with no injuries to any but the protesters warrants invoking the insurrection act. The entire world shakes their heads in disbelief.
A wealthy New Jersey city is considering a controversial ordinance that would fine or potentially jail unhoused people for sleeping in public spaces.
Unknown numbers of Ukrainians received emails by mistake from the U.S. Department of Homeland Security saying their humanitarian protected status was being revoked and they would have to leave the United States within days, the agency said Friday.
The White House’s group chat screwup is even more ridiculous than we thought
Watch: President Trump skipped the normal months-long process to impose tariffs and instead used a 1970s law to bypass them. WSJ’s Gavin Bade explains what that means legally and what Congress might do about it.
Fact check: Trump falsely says Europe doesn’t buy anything from US, wildly exaggerates trade deficit with China
@chaykak.bsky.social speaks with Bluesky’s C.E.O., Jay Graber, about how her company is attempting to build nontoxic social media by giving power back to users—and providing a foil to billionaire-owned platforms like X and Facebook.

A judge on Friday ruled wrongly deported Kilmar Abrego Garcia must be returned to the U.S. The Trump administration has asked the Supreme Court for emergency intervention to KEEP HIM THERE even though they admitted they made a mistake deporting him. This is Trump's new rule of law.
Many U.S. shop owners feel like collateral damage in President Trump's trade war, on the hook to pay big new fees and long unable to manufacture in the U.S.
“A private security force that is exercising the power of the marshals…you have to start worrying about whether they are acting in the public interest and whether they understand the rules that apply to the marshals.”

This is awesome... James Malone, a democrat, just won a senate seat in Pennsylvania... a state won by Trump Democrats will be winning all across the country as Trump continues his oligarchy takeover
He’s taken away jobs from thousands of Americans including Veterans. He’s demolished Medicare, Social Security and Veterans’ Benefits. He’s taken food from the starving, healthcare from the sick and he wants us to feel sorry for a billionaire who saved himself. #ProudBlue#Voices4Victory
