I wish she would just go away. So vile.
Isn’t the President usually out on a national holiday doing Presidential things? #WhereIsTrump #MissingPresident
Yuck.
This Labor Day weekend, every American needs to think about the hardworking laborers who grow our food being tormented by our government! Did you know that 2/3 of US fruit/nuts & 1/3 of US veggies are from CA & ~76% of our farmworkers are undocumented? We rely on them! Let's have their backs!
Hot to help! 👏 👏 👏
I still can’t understand why anyone would want this or allow it to happen.
She was a traitor then, is a traitor now and she will always be in the future.
$$$ — MSM has failed our democracy.
Californians, vote YES on Prop. 50 to give us a fighting chance in the 2026 election. (The new CA districts are temporary. They will revert back to not gerrymandered in 2030.)
I hope they all ghost the funeral
The devastating flu epidemic of 1918 was particularly dangerous for young adults, for people in their prime, who died by the millions. But RFK Jr. is too stupid to know that. Link below.
haha. not true. love this for them.
🇺🇲 On social media, Americans spread rumors that Trump has died, citing: — 3 days off live broadcasts — No public statements — 500% surge at a White House pizzeria — Vance saying he’s ready to take over if tragedy strikes
😂
Donald Trump hasn’t been seen publicly since Tuesday. No-one in the White House press pool saw him anywhere on Thursday or Friday. He has no scheduled events Saturday, Sunday or Monday.
Hoping, wishing, and praying
Well that’s 10 years too long.
Thank you!
I’m confused - it’s 3:30 am in the east - why would he be golfing now?
A dramatic, extremely worrying moment; over 61,000 people held in ICE detention. That is the highest number ever on record in United States history; roughly 6,000 higher than the previous record set under Trump six years ago, and over 21,000 higher than when Trump took office just seven months ago.
The Insurrection Act is his golden ticket. All he needs is the right crisis...and he’s manufacturing one.👇 www.jackhopkinsnow.com

Some good news.
So Joni Ernst approved all the cabinet members without any threat to her reelection. NOTED.
Ppl in Silicon Valley do not hold Gebbia in high regard.
Did you increase your spending last month? No? Me neither. That isn't anecdotal. The underlying numbers don't support this. The source here is the commerce department. I no longer trust the numbers coming out of this regime. I call bullshit! www.cnbc.com/2025/08/28/u...

An interesting 🧵
I've lived through two epidemics (HIV in the US in the 80s/90s and in South Africa in the 2000s) and through COVID with the rest of us. Nothing. Nothing. Nothing has been as terrible as what is happening now. 8/
Un-American.
Did you all hear about this terrifying news today??
Thank you. People, please, WAKE UP!
Can the health secretaries in the blue states organize themselves as the 23 Dem AGs do and start more aggressively pushing back on what Kennedy is doing? Their citizens are at risk.
My child worked there and said they received minimal tips. I try to tip well and he/she always tells me not to tip there.
🚨🚨 Pre-Labor Day Massacre We don’t know the why but several of our (excellent) leaders are resigning, effective (we think) immediately. Is this an act of resistance or a purge by our anti-science government?
Exactly. Correct.

Breaking: According to Minneapolis police, two children — ages 8 and 10 — have been killed in the church shooting. 14 children and three adults injured. Minneapolis mayor Frey: "Don't just say this is about thoughts and prayers right now. These kids were literally praying."
It’s awful.
This is a lovely memory.
It’s laughable. Except that it’s completely tragic.
WTF, I am so sick of this bullshit. The media has absolutely failed our democracy, and learned nothing while doing so.
Amazing.
This may or may not be a correct assessment. But I really don't think the Treasury Secretary should be cheerleading for investment trends, regardless. I don't think that's his job. In fact, I think it's incompatible with his job.
Un-fucking believable.
Check your registration. Encourage family & friends to check theirs!
Essential reading. However bad it may seem now, it’s probably worse
NPR: “A whistleblower says a former senior DOGE official now at the Social Security Administration copied the Social Security numbers, names & birthdays of over 300 million Americans to a private section of the agency's cloud lacking adequate security...” www.npr.org/2025/08/26/n...
@wired.com has been doing excellent reporting this year. Strongly recommend a follow if you aren’t already! 👇
I believe one of the main reasons he wants ICE and the military on the streets of Blue cities is to intimidate people away from voting booths. We are on the verge of losing our democracy.
At some point, the evidence becomes overwhelming — and we have reached that point. The frog in the metaphorical pot of water has boiled to death. presswatchers.org/2025/08/we-h...
It's called fascism. Fascist regimes, like Mussolini's Italy, directly nationalized some businesses. American journalists need reminding that this isn't necessarily a 'socialist' thing. Articles like this don't help the public interpret what's happening in the US. www.theatlantic.com/newsletters/...
SO embarrassing.
Maron's journey from asshole trainwreck to insightful sage has been quite a ride. I'm going to miss his podcast.
He bragged yesterday about “people from all over the world” coming to see the new 24k gold-decorated Oval Office b/c it is so beautiful. I wondered if he was thinking about the European intervention. What a shameful disgrace.
Not great.
It’a been ok for me so far!
HAPPENING NOW: At 2:00 p.m. ET, Judge Paula Xinis is set to hold a telephone conference regarding Kilmar Abrego Garcia's newly-filed lawsuit challenging his removal to Uganda. Abrego was detained by ICE earlier today. I plan to live-post the hearing for @lawfaremedia.org. Follow along ⬇️🧵
I wish we Americans were able to open our eyes like this.
The last time troops policed America was in the 1770s. We fought a revolution against that king, and wrote into the Constitution the Second, Third, Fourth, and Fifth Amendments to prevent it from ever happening again. Pass it along…
Are we winning yet?
F*ck‼️ Fort Bliss Army base used for a WWII Japanese internment is now the nation's largest ICE detention center.
Or, perhaps, a Russian agent.
You know how republicans talk constantly about people who were murdered by illegal immigrants? You know how we all know who Laken Riley was? Dems need to summon that energy for victims of ice.
As much as people like to say that JD Vance is smart, they should remember that he’s also an idiot.
I’m supposed to go on vacation in Chicago next month. Now I don’t want to.
🇺🇦 💙💛
Meanwhile..
Are we great yet?
🎧 THIS is why it's vital to record ICE "agents" - from every angle, during EVERY encounter! 😡 They're crafting their cover stories on the fly - with zero allegiance to the truth. Film it. Livestream it. Publish immediately! Help ensure that public perception reflects the FACTS! 🎥 @cheyenne.I.hunt
The only thing I can say about this paragraph is read it. Sit with it. Read it again. @michaelharriot.bsky.social
There's a video going around showing a Russian tank flying both a RU and a US flag. Snopes debunks it as AI; the flags are clearly added on, as there are 0 flags on it at all after being hit. That said, there isn't a more apt symbol of US/RU relationship right now shorturl.at/3qF4X
SEN. @ossoff.senate.gov on fascism in 🇺🇸 : “There is not safety in keeping your head down… People who oppose public policy decisions but are too afraid of retribution from their government to speak their mind should send a chill down all of our spines.”
Good
This is getting very bad: *FBI raids top Trump critic's home *Trump loyalist gins up "mortgage fraud" pretexts for DOJ probes of Schiff, Letitia James, Lisa Cook *Bannon says ICE will monitor 2026 voting *DHS memo vows LA operations "for years to come" New from me: newrepublic.com/article/1994...

BREAKING The FBI has raided the home of former US National Security Advisor and UN Ambassador John Bolton. The New York Post was first to report the raid.
⚖️ The Supreme Court is about to decide if the Voting Rights Act itself is unconstitutional. This isn’t just Louisiana. This could erase Black and brown representation nationwide. Without the Voting Rights Act, there is no democracy.
FYI: the fundraising ALL goes to the redistricting effort - not to a Newsom POTUS run. I checked.
He’s awful. He’s our rep, door knocked against him and was really sad when he was reelected. (It’s a red part of a purple state.)
Citrus from this spring
🚨 Doctors were not allowed to treat people being held in detention. Unacceptable.
If you’re trying to make it harder for people to vote, stop pretending to give a shit about democracy. Every American - regardless of their political views - deserves to have their voice heard.
Yes. Things would need to be restructured. The point is that they are not funding Congressionally approved programs but instead creating & funding programs of their own making, closing our institutions, etc. all while collecting our tax revenue.
I know history
Why are we paying taxes to the Federal Govt while they rob us? We could pay our Fed taxes to our states and thus fund our programs. NO TAXATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION
Remember when Russian state media called her “our girl Tulsi”?
Californians could pay their federal taxes to Ca instead
Yuck
