Regardless of the threat Trump poses, we have to try and win the midterms.

Another reason to avoid traveling to Florida with kids is that you might return with a disabling condition that could have been avoided by not visiting.
We are filing a request for a preliminary injunction to block the extension of soldiers’ deployment in Los Angeles through Election Day. There was never a need — and there is certainly no need now — for troops to be deployed against their own communities.
Republican governors have sent National Guard troops to Democratic-led Washington, D.C., even though cities in their states all have higher rates of violent crime than the nation’s capital. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/01/u...

Trump might resort to war or other reckless actions to prevent the release of the Epstein files.
And I share it!
BREAKING: The Pentagon has authorized up to 600 military lawyers to serve as temporary immigration judges. This is a blatant expansion of military power into a civilian judicial process, a dangerous erosion of the separation between the two. Every day, we inch closer to fascism.

This should be getting far more attention from the media, and it should be investigated as a hate crime. A 14-year-old Black teen was targeted, beaten, and dehumanized with racial slurs by white teens while people stood around cheering. 1/4
I wish people would stop blaming COVID mitigation policies for the acceleration of right wing extremism, and instead acknowledge the fact that we endured a mass casualty and mass disabling event that was mismanaged by narcissistic authoritarians who shifted the blame to marginalized communities

The disabling of America continues. The Pentagon has fired Vice Admiral Nancy Lacore, the chief of the Navy Reserve, and former Navy SEAL officer Rear Admiral Milton Sands who oversaw Naval Special Warfare Command.

After all that money was spent, you have to be an idiot to throw the project out almost at the finish line.
Trump’s militarization of Los Angeles seems to have been just the start of an authoritarian takeover of American cities. This is not leadership. This is a scary, unlawful grab for power, and we should all be deeply concerned.
This hits right on time… My wife and I had the great privilege of visiting the African-American Museum in DC, and let me just tell you if you have not been…It is a masterpiece—go.

All of the legacy media outlets that told us last year that Trump and the GOP really loved voting by mail and criticized me for saying it wasn't true were wrong. Now Trump is trying to ban VBM and he also wants to take over vote counting and certification. I hope they listen to me this time.

The military needs to understand that if it goes along with Trump’s plans, it will lose the goodwill it has worked so hard to rebuild with the U.S. public since Vietnam.

WOW. @marcelias.bsky.social goes off on the failures of legacy media: "We have an absolute collapse and failure by the institutions that have promised us that democracy would not die in darkness, that in fact, they stand for the proposition that democracy will die in plain sight of daylight."
ALL of the “chaos” Trump tells you he is addressing in the nation…is chaos CREATED BY HIM.

On November 4th in California, you will have the power to stand up to Donald Trump. You will have the power to stand up for people. We're going to give the people of this state the power to stand up for democracy.

Koh: If he were serious about cutting crime he wouldn't be proposing cutting $400 million from the ATF or cutting $500 million from the FBI, 700 agents or the DEA with with drug enforcement or the office of violence against women, 100 million from there
While Donald Trump needlessly deploys the National Guard in DC — where crime is at a 30-year low — California continues to bring down crime in nearly every major category. No one should look for advice from a felon who pardoned 1,500 insurrectionists on Day One.

With deep job cuts at the FDA, inspectors say the ongoing strain could compromise policing an industry spread across more than 90 countries. “Things will be missed, we are going to have a lot less safe drugs,” a former inspector said.
This took me a few tries as it is not an easy thing for to soeak about. However, it feels necessary as this administration begins to erase us from history, and once again, play the victim of some giant “hoax”. I mispronounce Maxwell’s name, but this take was as good as I could get
Happy b’day, “American Idiot” — released as a single 21 years ago today, and written in the wake of the Iraq War. “The country had gone into a war based on lies,” said Billie Joe Armstrong, “and no one seemed to care. .. It was a song that came from a very honest, pissed-off place.”
To my critics who say that my position urging Democratic governors to redrawing maps is simply a race to the bottom, I say this: The only thing Donald Trump understand is overwhelming force. We shouldn't bring knives to a gun fight, we should be missiles. Unilateral disarmament is not an option.
If someone created a plan to “Destroy the United States of America,” it would look exactly like what Trump is DOING.
She said she made it 21 years but that’s long enough to know this is bullshit. In my 53 years I agree. They’re dehumanizing us.
We should have the House right now. Let me say it again: we should have the House. This ain’t just a Texas problem, it’s a national problem. They’re stealing seats to keep power, and that’s how we ended up with Speaker Johnson instead of Speaker Jeffries. They can’t win fair, so they cheat.
