As Vladimir Putin is in China, ingratiating himself with Xi Jinping, whose regime has enabled and abetted Russia’s full-scale genocidal invasion of Ukraine, the Kremlin escalated its shadow war this weekend by targeting the European Union’s top leader with GPS jamming of her plane My latest…

More than 445,000 federal employees saw their union protections disappear in August, as agencies moved to comply with an executive order President Trump signed earlier this year that called for ignoring collective bargaining contracts with nearly one million workers.
🚨🚨🚨 I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what the 34x convicted felon & adjudicated rapist Trump did. 🚨🚨🚨
NEW: This morning, DOJ's Drew Ensign confirmed that the last of 76 children the Trump administration tried to put on planes & send to Guatemala in the middle of the holiday weekend are back in the custody of the Office of Refugee Resettlement, the result of a well-timed lawsuit & fast-moving judge.
Platner: No one cares that you pretend to be remorseful as you sell out to lobbyists. Symbolic opposition does not reopen hospitals. Weak condemnations do not bring back Roe V Wade. Maine deserves better than Susan Collins.

After Trump smeared immigrants in Springfield as eating dogs and cats? Well, now they are leaving and now Amazon is trying to get them back. And there are signs the economy is stalling. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/18/u...
Stephen Miller is melting down because he claims California ‘stole’ house seats by counting immigrants in the census. If immigrants were excluded, California, Texas, and Florida would all lose one seat! Red states benefit from undocumented immigrants! It’s not just California!

Here’s how it works: Billionaires can plunder with impunity, corporations can hoard billions unchecked, but the poor are buried in bureaucracy, surveillance, and punitive oversight. Not accidental, it’s class war. “Look over here at these criminals,” so you don’t see the real criminals!
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
They don’t care if you have papers or not. What they care about is whether you look like an immigrant from south of the border.

“ILLEGALS” MY ASS! Green card holder Rami Othmane speaks out after being snatched off the street by ICE while driving to the grocery store. He’s a documented immigrant and the husband of Dr Wafaa Alrashid, chief of staff at a local hospital. He was locked in detention for 13 days.
That was the plan all along…

Like dictators of the past, Trump is building a private army: Not since the days of Hitler’s S.A.—the “Brownshirt” stormtroopers—has a leader in an advanced capitalist country wielded a private political army mronline.org/2025/08/28/l...

Extremism succeeds because others enable it—because of their ambition, fear, or because they misjudge the dangers of small concessions. In the end those who empower an autocrat often surrender their democracy & the very influence they once hoped to preserve. www.foreignaffairs.com/germany/warn...

"Many on both the center and the left have been mocking Trump's supposed Christian values and public desire to get into heaven," DeVega stresses. "For them, his profession of faith is a transparent farce and a performance to win over the MAGA rubes.

The irony is rich — Trump wants DOJ to sue California over redistricting while he celebrates Texas gerrymandering maps he personally pushed for. And now other red states are lining up to do the same.
This is actually making me physically sick. They waited until the first responders and press got there, then they hit the hospital again. /

read trump's new executive order on domestic military dplymt + vigilante "portal." one of the reasons i am happy to be an independent journalist is so I can say that this is crazy, fascist, brownshirts shit without getting pulled into a meeting with PR for "opening us up to criticism from the right"
You mean there more scrubbing to do after 1000 FBI agents working for a month to reduct Trump’s name were done?! JFC!
They will be the most manipulated documents in American history. We must demand journalists be able to get forensic analyses done!
Among all the other things, "The President has screwed things up so badly that the world's other rich countries won't deliver mail to us anymore" really should end it immediately.
The FBI just scrapped its decades-old bachelor’s degree requirement for recruits—and slashed academy training from 18 weeks to 8. What could go wrong? www.msnbc.com/msnbc/amp/sh...

2 stories broke today that show us exactly where America is headed under Donald Trump: the whitewashing of his past crimes and the weaponization of justice against his critics. Put together, they paint a picture of a nation left defenseless—governed by a man blinded by rage and consumed by vengeance
You know what's crazy? There have been no op-eds or editorial statements in major newspapers this year calling on Trump to resign. None calling for his impeachment. None asking if he's medically fit to be in office. Not one in any major newspaper all year.

No matter what you think about Mr. Abrego Garcia, if you believe in due process you should be infuriated by this. The Trump admin is threatening to dump him in Africa as punishment for not pleading guilty to criminal charges they brought to avoid complying with a court order.
Insisting on expertise over ideology is not “politicizing” science. The ideologues installing scientific and governmental policy that is contradicted by evidence and data are. By emphasizing ideology over expertise, THEY have made arguing for expertise and evidence-based decision making partisan.

It’s pretty simple: - AI is driving electricity demand up - The Trump Administration is restricting new electricity supply from being built - When demand goes up and supply goes down, you pay more for electricity.
That’s an old-fashioned shakedown!

ICE, DC Police, Park Police, DHS, and HSI brutally arrested a man who refused to provide identification after being stopped for eating in public. Goons attempted to stop community members from recording his injuries during the incident.
🚨 Doctors were not allowed to treat people being held in detention. Unacceptable.
Trump literally got rid of the people at DOJ who prosecute crypto fraud. Anyone who believed there were honest ways to use crypto beyond a Ponzi scheme would not want the people who regulate the most egregious fraud in the space to disappear.
Recent reporting from 404 illuminates a major concern re: Flock’s ALPR data specifically. ICE desperately wants access to their database, and in some instances, has already used it:
Mike Collins is an idiot. There are 55M people in the world with US Visas. They’re not all here at once. There are about 185 types of visas and in FY2019 there were 3.2M people here on temporary visas.
Marjorie Taylor Greene attacked the Blackness of Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett during an interview. Greene then goes on to list off Jasmine Crockett’s credentials, including that she’s a lawyer, presenting it as evidence that she’s less Black because she’s educated.
And then laughed among friends over it later.

Trump's claims about mail in voter fraud and millions of phony ballots is nonsense. I asked Grok to explain why in terms simple enough for a MAGA to understand, so please share this thread with anyone you know that doesn't understand how voting works: 1/x
The media lost its MIND when Obama tried to make some small changes to the press pool system. Now Trump is quite openly rendering it into a North Korea-esque state-media system and ... has a single journalist or outlet stood up to protest?
