Trump on the cover of French magazine Le Point. Translation: “Man from Moscow” Le Point is a major French weekly news magazine. It is considered a center-right / conservative-leaning publication.
Federal data is rigged to make Trump look good.
When unions are strong, our communities and our country are strong. Every person in our nation has benefited from the labor movement. This Labor Day, we celebrate the workers and unions who have fought for fair wages, safe workplaces, and sick leave for all of us.
When our working families are strong, Minnesota is strong. That’s why we’ve established paid leave, expanded the right to collectively bargain, and why we’re investing in the projects creating the union jobs of the future. Happy Labor Day, Minnesota.
And that’s before you figure in the 2 overtimes shifts I need to work every week just to keep from going under.
The CEOs are Trumpers. The “journalists” are money grubbing fame whores unworthy of the First Amendment.
Is there any news outlet that hasn’t caved to Trump? Why would we expect the truth from any reporter?
Everything Trump Touches Dies #ettd
Republicans have been controlled opposition for Russia for decades.
And rich CEOs snatching hats away from kids!
The last one was a Russian op.
Whether or not these people are actual foreign agents is almost irrelevant. Their actions are observationally equivalent to & indistinguishable from the actions actual foreign agents would be taking. The consequences of our total Article I constitutional crisis, right here:
He has refused his Assent to Laws, the most wholesome and necessary for the public good.
You’re being hysterical.
Old Man Yells at Himself
The mental fitness of elderly Presidents has been such an important issue for the media lately, so I expect wall-to-wall coverage of how President Trump has once again thrown a fit about one of his own signature policies, showing no awareness of how it arose or who executed it.
They’re going back to the hits because someone can’t handle the new material
I worked 31.5 hours of overtime last week and am broke again. Happy Labor Day.
@jaketapper.bsky.social I’m looking at you.
DHS and DC Police detaining a peaceful, unarmed man sitting on a bench at DC's Malcolm X Park.
We have no immune response because we’ve never been exposed before.
They stopped the fentanyl though. Right?
@jollygoodginger.bsky.social is in DC with other vets right now standing up for democracy. He's playing General Milleys speech on repeat for them today 💜 #LoveTheVets!
Do it and make Schumer and Jeffries follow along. Waiting for them to act first or “lead” is not getting it done.
Dem Senators MUST tell Schumer to facilitate daily press briefings (see my pinned tweet) and if he doesn't, they MUST call him out for it. Then use other Leadership entities to get it done. We are out of patience!
Check the weddings at the golf course. He can’t stay away from the weddings. If there is a wedding and he doesn’t crash it, you know it’s serious.
#EpsteinFiles Remember the victims will be holding a press conference this week with lawyers and lawmakers. This is not going away. 💙
Here we go: Victims of Trump's best friend, wingman and pedo bro, Jeffrey Epstein, are going to have a press conference at 10:30 AM ET on September 3, 2025 at the US Capitol. 🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿😊👇
The unraveling of the United States is accelerating. Empowered by political apathy, a would-be strongman is moving to dismantle healthcare, social protections, education, and even the Constitution itself. History shows dictators only thrive when citizens remain complicit — or silent.. #Autocracy
Lobotomy is Kennedy family tradition.
And paid for by blue states. When do we get our money back?
Jill Stein and Cornel West both disgust me — such goddamn, self-serving hypocrites.
This isn’t politics. It’s not left or right. It’s not conservative or liberal. Cutting funding to treat children with brain cancer is hate and greed.
Pritzker on Trump sending troops into cities: "He has other aims other than fighting crime... he would like to stop the elections in 2026 or frankly take control of those elections. He'll just claim there's some problem with an election and then he's got troops on the ground that can take control."
Another incremental half-step intended as a show of transparency. Not actual transparency, just a show.
Ensure domestic tranquility.
News in this piece: 1) JB Pritzker's health officials are exploring the possibility of buying Covid vaccines in bulk to distribute to constituents 2) Mass Gov Maura Healey is leading a coalition of mostly blue states that could coordinate purchasing of pediatric vaccines Read all about this here:
Establish justice

Kamala would have stopped this.
The US giving up on the future being better than the past within 6 months has been stunning to behold. Destroying education, destroying free trade, trying to destroy renewable energy and storage (which ain’t gonna happen as they get cheaper than fossil fuels) Just Such A Waste
Trump "is objectively a Soviet." Sounds right to me. substack.com/@demwinsmedi...
Closed: anywhere people earn salaries Open: Anywhere people are paid by the hour

Of course.

But you can arrest the firefighters while they are fighting the fire. #winning
Trump/RFK are decapitating our public health system, a pillar of American greatness. So Dem Govs should scour every corner of the law for creative new ways to defend their people from this madness. Dems should polarize this debate to the max. Thoughts on this here: newrepublic.com/article/1998...
Good morning 🦋💙🦋😂😂😂
New Mexico is overriding the federal government on the topic of COVID19 vaccines to ensure their residents can access them. States hold a tremendous amount of public health power. They should use it.
Does he know where the Epstein files are?
Promote the general welfare

Rich boys and their rich toys. I worked 31.5 hours of overtime last week. Where’s my fucking parade?
He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance.
Republicans want people with disabilities put in camps.
1. The president has been working hard trying to convince Americans that crime is so bad right now that he has no choice but to send armed military to patrol major cities to restore law and order, in the process stripping citizens of rights and liberties in the name of public safety.
Social programs fits squarely in any reasonable person's idea of law and order. Point is, Republicans don't mean it when they call for law and order. They just want to punish people they don't like. Democrats should call for law and order, because they mean equal treatment & equal justice.
No more failsons Tax away generational wealth in the United States.
Republicans are trying to make recreation and entertainment available only to the rich. Just like they are doing with food, medicine and housing.
Republican tax plan: Taxes for workers, tax breaks for millionaires.
Epidemiologist Erin McCanlies spent much of the past two decades studying the environmental causes of autism. Under the leadership of Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who has promised to find a cause for the condition, her entire division was cut.
1. I need your help. Donald Trump and the Republicans have repealed the federal subsidies that made health insurance affordable to me here in Connecticut. As a consequence, I face a dire choice in the coming months: pay unsustainable monthly premiums or go without.
Liberals: “We could try to DO some things to reduce gun violence; ‘thoughts and prayers’ isn’t enough.” Republicans: “Outrage! Disgrace! They’re attacking prayer.” There’s no need to be polite or defensive in response to this. Invoking faith as an excuse to shun responsibility deserves no respect.
In @nytopinion.nytimes.com “When people fight principled battles that they know they may lose, others pay attention,” Michael Brownstein and Alex Madva write in a guest essay.
“Launching an economic war on India is the most Trumpian blunder of the three because it appears to be driven almost entirely by his wounded vanity.” daniellarison.substack.com/p/the-stupid...
Question: Why did US put big tariffs on India despite major national interest in cultivating a strategic counterweight to China and trying to isolate Russia? Answer: Because the US president lied that he fixed India-Pakistan and India wouldn’t go along with the lie. (Seriously, that’s the answer)
Trump is taking my healthcare. Can you spare $6? A THREAD
Are we going to talk about J Ann Selzer’s poll calling Iowa for Kamala by 16. Then trump *won* Iowa and sued her as he does. Then Catelin Drey just won by a landslide. (11) I find that wildly interesting. One might even say, BlueAnon Curious.
USA Today afraid to say Trump’s polls are down.
Yet another sign of the self-serving world of narcissistic delusion inhabited by this monster. His removal from office is a moral necessity.

Promote the general welfare
Trumpers gonna Trump.
Republicans have always been: Rights for me, Rules for thee.
Secure the blessings of liberty
Form a more perfect union
Nearly 70% of Americans support labor unions. Why? Because more and more people know that unions ensure workers get higher paychecks, safer working conditions, and a real voice in both the workplace and our democracy. It's what every worker deserves.
Something blue states will need to explore: how to create cross-state compacts dedicated to a functioning government as the Trump administration walks away from it's responsibilities.
Health officials under JB Pritzker, who is showing how to take on Trump, are moving forward. They're exploring buying vaccines in bulk themselves. Mass. Gov Maura Healey is in talks with multiple other states about coordinating purchasing of pediatric vaccines. newrepublic.com/article/1998...
If Trump and RFK are going to rip the country in half over public health, Dems should polarize the living heck out of this debate on their own terms. Scour the law for as many ways as possible to protect your people from Trump/RFK's reign of mass destruction. newrepublic.com/article/1998...
Promote the general welfare
Republicans: Vaccines are dangerous so we can only give them to the sick and elderly.
Use your white, right.
WAPO is a Trump propaganda rag.
People are often surprised to learn that Lee was an officer who never made it past colonel. The purported promotion to general was awarded by a treasonous cabal calling itself the "confederate states of america" which was put down by force by the Union army, which also had superior generals.
Those tax cuts for billionaires should trickle down any day now.
