Never Trump! Take 2 hours out of your busy week, join a protest or start one, while you still have the right of free speech. Our democracy is going, going, gone!

Severe financial damage has been inflicted on the U.S., but it's in-house - the Whitehouse.
What - a crack in Evangelical cultist complicity with MAGA cult? Wonders never cease.
Up against the wall? If so, we need to push even harder. WE must be our own heroes.
His goal was not to ensure safety, but to create a spectacle.
Pulte is just one of the many in Trump 2.0 who should never have been confirmed by the Senate. #TrumpCult
After installing largest U.S. homebuilder to oversee FHFA, Trump demands payback in the form of Selective Enforcement: Trump’s Abuse of Power Hits New Lows open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...
In @nytopinion.nytimes.com In America’s vaunted system of checks and balances, “We, the people, have always been the real check, the most important balance,” Frank Bruni writes. “But we must recognize what’s happening, sit with the alarm of it and rouse ourselves to push back.”
Trump is weaponizing federal power—and Democrats can stop it. With another funding deadline coming up, they’ve got to reject any Republican budget that fuels his chaos. indivisible.org/camp...
Wowsa.
Trump and Dr. Oz want AI to decide which Medicare patients get care—and they're giving AI companies a profit-incentive to deny coverage. Everything about this is sick and wrong. Tell Congress to intervene NOW:
I fear that the courts can't save us from The Beast, and, ultimately, it will just come down to those citizens who have been shocked out of their complacency. The big question is: will it be in time - will it be enough - to save some semblance of the democracy we once were?
We’re only a few years removed from creatjng a vaccine to protect against a deadly airborne virus in a matter of months. Now, we have a scion fail son running the CDC into the ground not because it failed, but because its success conflicts with RFK Jr’s eugenicist ideology.
Worth keeping around to revisit going forward. If Democrats got off their asses, here’s what they’d be doing now open.substack.com/pub/robertre...
Laugh crying.
Is it time yet for the long arc to bend down and hit the Trump administration in the ass???
NEW -- Exactly 10 days after taking the oath early this year, Donald Trump nearly drowned dozens, potentially hundreds, of his own citizens in California’s Central Valley. Why? Because he is one of the most ignorant people you will ever meet. www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...

"'One of the things about people like Trump [...] is they like to accuse people of what they themselves are trying to do,' he continued. 'You’ve heard it said about Trump many times, every accusation is a confession.' "'Deep down, he’s a destructive force. Deep down, he wants to destroy,' he said.
Truth hurts, but it needs to be said. 🎯🎯🎯 Facts > MAGA lies every single time. #BlueCrew
WTF! Spiritual Street fighter - Q ✝️? Looks like some crap Stephen Miller dreamt up in his latest wet dream. Trump certainly isn't clever enough.
As we resist Trump’s tyranny, America gains solidarity. As we gain solidarity, we feel more courageous. As we feel courageous and stand up to Trump, we weaken him and his regime. As we weaken Trump and his regime, we have less to fear.
Once upon a time, we stood by and watched injustice being perpetrated by government paid thugs. theberkshireedge.com/i-witness-th...
One can only hope ...
Probably on vacation.
Once upon a time, we were a democracy. Then the Conman-in-Chief went batshit crazy and began to destroy the government from the inside out. Not enough citizens could find a couple of hours to show up and resist. But maybe they'll pass the story of what happened on to future generations - who knows?

For me, it's a toss-up whether he's full of bile or full of shit - probably both - and certainly evil as hell.

FEMA employees were just placed on leave after criticizing the Trump regime in open letter. Their letter was meant to "sound the alarm" about inexperienced appointees and drastic cuts to agency programs. Like all tyrants in history, Trump wants to squelch dissent.
Fux sake!

I feel that "we the people" are being herded into a situation of growing suppression and oppression by this administration, cutting off all avenues of reason until there is no alternative but violent rebellion against the new police state. We are in a very precarious situation, indeed!

Mark Zuckerberg has spent $110M to buy 11 houses in one Palo Alto neighborhood. He's turning the homes into a compound. That's on top of his 30 bedroom, 30 bathroom compound in Hawaii and another in Lake Tahoe. I don’t want to hear that billionaires can’t afford a wealth tax.
Who would have thought a slapdash last-minute thrown together summit to distract from the Epstein files would be a complete and utter failure?

Excellent essay with hope for our survival and getting back to working toward a more perfect union - after TrumpCult.
The whole point is fear and intimidation - we don't know who they are. Everything they wear - even down to the flashing lights on the unmarked vehicles - can be purchased in a store or online. They could be Jan 6'rs for all we know - hired or vigilante. These are unprecedented lawless times.
Remember: There is nothing natural or inevitable about extreme inequality; it’s the result of an economic system that values wealth and power over human dignity and justice. It doesn't have to be this way.

I've seen people either saying, Oh corny. Or, oh he's just running for President. And my thought is, AWESOME. Let the 2028 Dem Prez primary be about who can fight against Trump and for our democracy and our rights the most effectively and aggressively and let it begin today.
The undisguised narcissism is pitiful; although he doesn't merit the gentleness of pity. So, it's truly sickening and embarrassing to our nation on so many levels.

Just an honest labor statistician collecting the data, crunching the numbers, and reporting them fairly, and definitely not an extremist ideologue with an axe to grind, unshackled from respect for the law or political norms.

Well, it was just a matter of time, time for the newest #TrumpTacky - a cage fight on the WH lawn to celebrate the 250th anniversary of our independence. Probably the only thing you can be sure of about Trump is that he's totally devoid of what used to be called "class." www.cnn.com/2025/08/13/s...

The President cannot commandeer any local law enforcement. The President does not run the Smithsonian. The monthly BLS jobs report is required by law. Release the Epstein files. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

The challenges we now face must be met by a bold progressive populist movement that strengthens democracy and shakes up the system. We can’t simply return to the path we were on before Trump. We cannot accept the status quo of Big Money dominating our politics and economy.
Many say this retaliatory gerrymandering by Dems is a race to the bottom. I say we're at the bottom. High time Dems climb up out of the hole and fight fire with fire.
It might actually be down to not reading the damn bill.

Just like Trump inviting the Taliban to Camp David, inviting Putin to Alaska stinks. The only legitimate reason for Putin to set foot in the U.S. is to arrest him as a war criminal and send him to The Hague for trial. Trump looks like a weakling trying to “Reset” with Russia.
The six reliably pro-Trump justices are "racking up a rap sheet of constitutional abuses of staggering import."

The war on immigration is just all bad in every possible direction. --It is very expensive --It radicalizes government agencies --It distorts US foreign policy --It is very harmful to the economy --It is also quite cruel. There is no second/third order consequence that is positive.

The next time you hear conservatives use any of the following terms, ask for a definition. "Woke" "DEI" "Critical race theory" "Socialism" They won't have any. They just want to stoke culture wars to divert attention from economic looting and oligarchy.

Larry Summers: "This is way beyond anything Nixon ever did ... this is the stuff of democracies giving way to authoritarianism. Firing statisticians goes with threatening the heads of newspapers, launching assaults on universities, launching assaults on law firms. This is really scary stuff."
Bass: We just heard that the administration’s experiment failed. The raids that were happening in Los Angeles—the random pulling and snatching of people off the streets based on the language they spoke, their appearance, where they work—the court has said that can no longer happen.
