I know, I know, but: The president of the US saying, literally, "we're going in" in reference to sending the military to an American city for no reason beyond terrorizing the local population should be the most immediately impeachable shit imaginable
Surely, the decision to hold a military spectacle at that time is just coincidence.
Like a 1980s televangelist, Trump is now asking his supporters to send him $15 to help him get to Heaven. meidasnews.com/news/trump-a...

Under Dr. Oz, Medicare is launching a pilot program that will use AI to determine whether patients would be covered for certain procedures. Companies running the program will be paid a share of the savings from rejecting claims. Who in their right mind voted for this? No one.

Ah, yes. I remember when Michelle Obama ravaged the NIH and CDC, killed off vital vaccine research and denied inoculations to millions for reasons of pure BS. I remember this because I have Pundit Memory™️, an exciting new product that makes you able to both-sides and whatabout anything!
Weird, putting tariffs on construction materials and throwing day laborers in concentration camps should have solved the supply problem by now
It is wild that the Washington Post -- which claims "Democracy Dies in Darkness" -- has remained completely silent for more than a day about Trump's latest attack on free and fair elections. Support pro-democracy independent media. Subscribe to Democracy Docket today. hubs.ly/Q03jcjqP0
Not today, Satan‼️ Got this garbage in the mail a few days ago. Republicans trying to trick California voters into voting NO on Prop 50. Suddenly they care about “democracy”? Please. Vote YES on Prop 50. Don’t let the cheaters write the rules.
wow
"All you guys want to do is bring up the time the sitting President fomented an insurrection in order to ignore the results of a national election and remain in power"...🖕
“Stop talking about that time we did a insurrection”
This is the type of person Trump pardoned. He proudly asserts that they should have injured a US Capitol Police Officer worse than they did on January 6th (@sergeantaqgo.bsky.social) had to medically retire). But MAGA supports law enforcement? Seriously? Then show me by condemning this guy.
Trump Administration is hollowing out DOJ expertise. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

I think he plans To have the country be at war, so that he can put off or cancel elections. He already expressed interest in that when speaking with some other leader, It's on Video.

Why do you appreciate unions? I’ll start: Weekends off Paid vacations Work breaks Sick leave Paid holidays No child labor Safer working conditions Health care and retirement benefits
They're releasing the Epstein files?
The Trump regime has pulled the US out of the UN Human Rights Universal Process Review. This is chilling. This review happens every 4-5 years for each country in the UN. No country has ever pulled out of the review. Until now. I remember the last time the US had its UPR... 🧵
The Justice Department had once argued that Ghislaine Maxwell should be sentenced to at least 30 years in prison. Now its second-ranking official—and Donald Trump’s former lawyer—is aligned with a woman whose crimes the department had called “monstrous.”
Our national parks generated $56 billion in visitor spending and supported 415,000 jobs in 2023. The entire National Park Service budget was just $3.6 billion. That’s some return on investment — so why is Donald Trump taking an axe to our parks?
Today in the casual media normalization of lawless personalist authoritarianism
Republicans used to be against federal government overreach—but now they're silent as Trump seems to be forming a personal paramilitary force.
Trump wants you to forget Epstein. Or at least, trust the lady whose been convicted of the crime. My latest adamkinzinger.substack.com/p/maxwell-th...
National Guardner? National Park Service workers laid off, and now the National Guard is doing landscaping in DC. Felon Trump really turned soldiers into gardeners.
Watch what they do, not what they say
"Marc Elias’s Democracy Docket has quietly become a pro-democracy media force, expanding its newsroom to 20 staffers as it surpasses 50,000 paid subscribers." Story here: www.status.news/p/democracy-...
Another example. Republican efforts to curb Veterans benefits by creating a disability rating system that costs more to operate than simply giving all veterans direct government healthcare. Same goes for healthcare for all Americans. Doing the right thing is always cheaper than the cost to block it.
Never before in our history has one man exercised such unbridled discretion affecting the lives of so many of us, while simultaneously preventing others — Congress, the courts, the American people — from having a say or even knowing what he’s going to do next. This is what dictatorship looks like.
Communist regimes: Own companies Control their central banks Use tariffs to insulate their economies Use armies, false charges, home raids & arrests to intimidate the opposition Idolize their leaders with posters & praise Sound familiar?

I celebrate every victory for voting rights, but this one is particularly special. No issue has been more hotly contested or more important to PA voters than this one. The DSCC and DCCC fought hard and it is great to see them prevail. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
This is all a lead up to Trump deploying the military at polling places during the mid-terms to intimidate voters as he will say it's to ensure "safe and secure elections" this shit is so easy to see from a mile away.

Pritzker: Over the last four years, we have seen homicides drop in half. That’s something the President should pay attention to. I know he doesn’t read but I know he watches TV so perhaps if someone from Fox or Newsmax is here
“This is about the President of the United States and his complicit lackey, Stephen Miller, searching for ways to lay the groundwork to circumvent our democracy, militarize our cities, and end elections.” – Gov. J.B. Pritzker
My heart breaks into 10,000 pieces once again.
This is 100% correct.
It’s time for @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social to fire his comms people. That’s a lot of words to say “GTFO.” Also, unleashing the military on the people isn’t a distraction. It’s five-alarm fascism.
The latest thing Trump has done to DC: Scare the visitors away. Damaging all the businesses, large and small, that depend on them. Along the National Mall today, 1pm, on a stunningly beautiful Saturday afternoon in late August. (Article and more photos to come later today.)
The lifelong criminal in the Oval Office bragging about receiving a photo from the war criminal in Russia who bombs hospitals and schools, and kidnaps kids.
If a president wanted to become effectively a dictator, he’d likely: 1. Purge govt of non loyalists 2. Weaponize law against opponents 3. Use military to police opposition strongholds 4. Threaten media, schools, businesses w penalties to get them to heel 5. Change election rules in his favor.

That was one of the most batshit press conferences of Trump's public life. He brandished a photo of Putin and promised to deploy the US military to occupy Chicago, New York, and San Francisco. A sane country would be moving toward impeachment and removal right now.
Let's start calling him Biff
He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures.
Trump says “politics is over” if Republicans gerrymander and ban mail voting before the midterms
An estimated 93,000 will die a premature death due to the loss of SNAP between now and 2039. The ‘Make America Healthy Again’ party would rather people sink deeper into poverty and food insecurity than get the essential assistance they need to buy groceries.

Hey, Literally Every Media Outlet, It's not a Ukraine-Russian war; it's Ukraine defending itself against Russian occupation and annihilation. Thanks.

The emergency is here, NYT, and you fascilitated it.
A growing number of the new victims of Trump’s cruel, illegal ICE terror are young Asian Americans with LEGAL STATUS who have grown up their entire lives in this country and are being swept up for minor infractions or technicalities.
"How would you describe the moral culpability of a man who casually destroys a program that will result in the deaths of millions *without even achieving his stated aims of saving money*?"
Great work, John Roberts. You’ve played a key role in wrecking our beloved country.
PBS was for everyone
92-year-old Scottish widow Molly Forbes refused to sell her land to Trump for his golf course. In revenge, he blasted floodlights, ran loud machines nonstop, and cut her water and power. She never gave in — right up until her death at age 96.
Here come the “Ghislaine is innocent” talking points.
This is a horrific and heartbreaking read.
who told us about her? her VICTIMS, you disingenuous hack. it takes a lot to gast my flabbers these days but even i can’t believe they’re seriously gonna try this revisionist history shit about a woman who aided and abetted in the rape of children.

Trump cares only about protecting himself and the perpetrators. That’s why they’ve ignored the survivors since the beginning.
No one should believe a single economic statistic produced by the US government under Trump after this. www.axios.com/2025/08/01/t...
Is the White House not a listed historical building? Is that a stupid question?? I’m just baffled that no one has to approve plans to modify it, as is true with almost any other government or historical property
Wow
Exactly this. We will not be able to trust government data going forward.
Trump has fired the Labor Statistics Commissioner after a weak jobs report. www.nbcnews.com/business/eco...
www.businessinsider.com/how-data-cen... This must be addressed WHY would they allow MEGA AI DATA CENTERS to be located in DROUGHT PRONE STATES? An AI DATA CENTER in TX guzzled 463 million gallons of water ( source economic times) we have 150 data centers in AZ (ty @mutsy67.bsky.social )
The water crisis in the SW has reached alarming levels, and the demand from data centres has exacerbated the situation significantly. It was absurd to build centres in Arizona, given the extreme heat. This choice only compounds the problem, since cooling the tower requires immense amounts of water.
Dude didn't have 6 bankruptcies for no reason.

we do in fact want to discourage people like that from holding office
The Orange Idiot: "Wind energy doesn't work. You need a subsidy for wind. Energy should not need a subsidy." FACTS: In the past 25 years, renewable energy has $350 billion in subsidies. In the same period, fossil fuels have received $2.5 TRILLION.
I think people are misinterpreting this wonky headline. The bombshell story CBS is reporting is that the Epstein jail tape the public got IS missing time and the FULL video exists. The FBI and DOJ have it. So when Bondi said the missing minute is normal, she lied. www.cbsnews.com/news/jeffrey...
Lee Zeldin, Trump’s EPA chief, plans to revoke the 2009 “endangerment finding”, the EPA’s legal basis for regulating climate pollution. This isn’t rollback. It’s sabotage. Without it, the EPA can’t limit emissions from cars, power plants, or industry. Decades of progress gone.
US taxpayers just paid $10M for Trump’s trip to Scotland so he could cut a ribbon on his new golf course, but we “can’t afford” pediatric cancer research.
Rick just nails it here. And his book on Trump’s cheating at golf is a fabulous and hilarious—but also bracing—read. In fact it’s one of the best books about Trump out there. a.co/d/3f83a3F
Needless to say, if Trump’s DOJ is seeking to meet with Maxwell, that would be in service of the coverup not the truth, of collusion not investigation. Sen. Durbin and others should scream bloody murder about this.
At this point, these NASA employees fully understand that signing a letter like this means the Trump administration will likely fire them and even perhaps go after them personally Yet rather than remain silent, they chose to speak up They are heroes, one and all
Well if this doesn’t call bullshit on the whole thing.
Let’s talk about this memo. Right-wing influencers want you to think this is some smoking gun that proves a vast conspiracy surrounding the 2016 election. In reality, it’s business as usual for a counterintelligence investigation.
