He is unqualified to run the Department of Health and Human Services and public health suffers each day under his leadership. He needs to be removed from his post.
It’s wrong to starve children. I’m a Pennsylvanian who voted for Kamala. Lucky to have a group of great women to walk with every day. “The freedom to read is essential to our democracy” ALA 1953 I read a lot! ☮️🇺🇸

This purely political act is not in the best interest of our military or our national defense, and I urge the President to reverse this decision.
Democrats just MASSIVELY overperformed in 2 Florida special elections. House 40: Harris +35 → RaShon Young +50 (75–25). Senate 15: Harris +23 → Lavon Bracy Davis +45 (73–27). That’s 15- and 22-point swings toward Democrats.
Pritzker: "When did we become a country where it's ok for the US president to insist on national television that a state should call him to beg for anything? Especially something we don't want. Have we truly lost all sense of sanity in this nation that we treat this as normal?"
I wish I wasn’t the only person I know who’s read Station Eleven. How can a book with an apocalyptic theme be soothing? I’ve reread it 4 times! It’s like an addiction at this point. I know it won’t be long before I’m drawn to read it again. #StationEleven #Literature
😂
THE UNITED STATES WILL DECLARE WAR ON NORWAY IF THIS ABOMINATION OCCURS. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER!
I’ve always maintained that all work has dignity, the Union Way of Life is sacred, and that it’s past time we pay people a livable wage. I’m 💯 celebrating the hardworking men and women who keep our country running—this Labor Day, and always. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Photo dump of some awesome signs & crowd shots from today’s protest! It is SO hard to get a good photo of the crowd b/c we spanned a little over a quarter mile with people! Great energy from the crowd, & an estimated 1,000 people in attendance! #workersoverbillionaires #laborday #indivisiblenewarkde

Philadelphia DA, Larry Krasner (D), PROTESTING? "Bring your video camera, this is a party at war with the truth. This is a President who is at war with the truth. So bring the light. Vampires don’t like light and neither does Donald Trump."
“The obscure Trump official behind Lisa Cook’s firing *** If Trump doesn’t like you, Bill Pulte may be looking into your mortgage soon.” 8/26/25 … 1/ www.vox.com/politics/421...
"Nobody wants to be a cop [in DC]. They were abused. They were spit on." "When you when you say they were abused and spit on, I'm assuming you're talking about January 6th, correct?" "All you guys want to do was bring up J6 about the answer to everything."
Set your alarm! Norm & Jen go LIVE tonight at 8pm ET with the leaders fighting for unions, teachers & workers’ rights. Hear their stories, their vision, & how they’re standing up for a better tomorrow in the face of growing threats to democracy.
Great. Let's see action, not more grossly ineffectual "stern letters."
Day 3. 27 miles. 56,243 steps. 9 1/2 hours. Still moving. Still fighting. Every step is for working families who rely on transit—and for a government that shows up for us. #WalkForTransit
Workers Over Billionaires!
📌
C’mon folks 19 states are facing occupation, let’s make sure this toolkit makes it around BlueSky 🤗 WE are the resistance!
Don't forget, this is tomorrow! Another national day of protest! See you on the streets! #IndivisibleNewarkDE
Hope to see you at some of our upcoming events!
“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.
This is so well articulated ‼️ It’s a class war‼️ Working class Americans need to unite and fight‼️
This is unAmerican. This video hurts my heart. I’ve seen it several times but I watched with the sound today and it’s hauntingly sad. I call my PA GOP senator weekly & held a sign saying Stop Ice Cruelty over a By pass with fellow Indivisibles. What else can I do?
Don’t look away
The Dems are saved! 🙃🤦🏻♂️ Somebody help this man. A party’s need for new leadership has never been more obvious.
This ridiculous video isn’t just on Schumer. You know his staff is responsible for it. Why don’t they get it? Our nation is at risk. Stop pretending things are normal.
This is good: With Trump/RFK destroying CDC, JB Pritzker's officials are exploring the possibility of buying Covid vaccines from manufacturers and distributing them in-state themselves, source tells me. Dem govs must step up and fill the void. New piece from me: newrepublic.com/article/1998...
Good.
Tomorrow I kick off a 105-mile Walk for Transit — for our working families and for a government that actually works for us. @democrats.org aren’t backing down!
We’re walking for transit. We’re walking for our families. We’re walking for a government that gives a damn about US!
Rally with me on the route!! 🚶🏽♂️#WalkForTransit
The Pennsylvania budget is nearly two months late & the impacts of the impasse are starting to be felt in our communities. I'll be joining Senator Kane and @senatormuth.com at 11 today to discuss how the impasse is affecting our communities & why we need a budget now that works for Chester County.
“Yeah man, I just felt powerless.” (Sir, that’s exactly how any true American feels right now.)
Immigration agents arrested two Mexican contractors helping to tackle a wildfire in Olympic National Forest in Washington, a supervisor who oversees the crews said Thursday.
Inhuman. “I don’t have any choice” is a lie.
“Paycheck to paycheck living will not buy quality anything.”

🔥 @mizzwelch.bsky.social : “It’s the complete moral collapse of the 🇺🇸 government… the cabinet meeting with 3.5 hours of superficial praise is so cringeworthy… he redecorated the Oval Office like Marie Antoinette and built himself a ballroom because he has zero intention of leaving…”
Some MAGA guy in the “new media seat” kicking off the WH presser with these Qs: - on the shooting: we all know it’s not a gun thing, it’s mental illness thing. What does POTUS think about mental illness? - on Chicago: anyone with connected brain cells knows Chicago crime is off the charts. ⬇️
REUTERS: “Trump's special representative, Steve Witkoff, violated diplomatic protocol in Moscow when he went to the Kremlin on August 6 for a meeting with Putin without a stenographer and a representative from the U.S. State Department.” ⬇️
Trump admin believes women are not people.
BREAKING: Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey JUST CALLED FOR a statewide and federal ban on assault weapons. Who’s with him?
Did you add this to your calendar yet? Another national day of protest! We are ready to fight for democracy & for workers rights! www.IndivisibleNewarkDE.org. The Del State AFL-CIO is also hosting a rally on Sept 1 (10 am) in Rodney Square in Wilmington. Attend their protest as well if you can!
70 years ago, on this date, Emmett Till was kidnapped and brutally murdered by white men. His family, including his cousin who was with him at the time, is repeating the train ride he took from Chicago to Mississippi in 1955 to mark the anniversary
ICE and CBP apprehended a contractor at a Home Depot in Downey, CA today without providing any justification. No warrant was presented, nor was there any evidence indicating that the individual had committed a crime.

Brief 🧵, as someone who has studied mass shootings for 13 years: -gender does not cause them -SSRIs, no -mental illness, no -internet/gaming, no Above can be compounding factors—but motive is complex, often very. The most fundamental combo: suicidality + rage + isolation + easy access to guns
Good Morning! ♥️ #pinks #proudblue
This is what's happening. Just ask John Bolton.
No matter what they say ... IT'S THE GUNS.
Now would also be a good time to reopen the White House Office of Gun Violence Prevention, which was shuttered one day after President Trump's inauguration.
Undermining the Fed to get lower rates now is like ripping the batteries out of your smoke alarm because it’s beeping. It’s quiet for a bit. Then your house burns down. Credibility anchors expectations; expectations anchor inflation.
I’m in a mtg with Dep Chief of Staff for Strategic Deterrence & Nuclear Integration, US AF.. he praises Trump as POTUS who aims to bring peace while noting that nuclear treaty with 🇷🇺 expires in 2026, it doesn’t cover all types of nuclear weapons & DJT is sole decision maker on nuclear weapons usage
I love it when one of the kindest people on the planet throws shade at tRump.
I’ve lived here for 33 years, and it’s a flat-out lie that half the restaurants have closed because of safety. But restaurants will close because you have troops with guns and federal agents harassing people, making people afraid to go out.” Agree 💯!
Celebrity chef and D.C. icon José Andrés pushed back on Trump’s propaganda in a post on X, writing: “I understand why you are confused… all your time in D.C. you haven’t eaten ONCE outside the White House or your own hotel.
My husband has got a joke about Taylor Swift’s engagement, brace yourselves: “Hope the ring isn’t too big otherwise she might Shake It Off” Anyway, as you were
I was jealous of my neighbor whose mom always had a tin of Charles chips at their home.

🚨BREAKING: A federal judge dismissed a Department of Justice lawsuit against every federal district judge in Maryland. The ruling, by a Trump appointee, slammed the Trump administration for an “unprecedented” effort to “smear and impugn” judges who rule against it.
🚨BREAKING: Third Circuit STRIKES DOWN Pennsylvania requirement that mail-in ballots that arrive in undated or misdated return envelopes be discarded. Court holds that Constitution requires they be counted. A big victory for our clients DSCC and DCCC and PA voters!
He’s not up for reelection until 2028. You are welcome to just sit and wait for the opportunity to oust him. I don’t want to wait. I want information. I want him to answer to constituents.
Gov. Pritzker: “Earlier today in the Oval Office, Donald Trump…asked for me personally to say, ‘Mr. President, can you do us the honor of protecting our city?’ Instead, I say, ‘Mr. President, do not come to Chicago. You are neither wanted here nor needed here.’”
Israel: “IDF regrets harm caused to individuals not involved in the incident and never targets journalists as such” Per Gaza’s Hamas-run Health Ministry, 20 people were killed in a hospital strike, incl 4 journalists working for Reuters, NBC, Al Jazeera, AP
KILMAR IN BALTIMORE: “Never lose hope. Promise me you’ll continue fight for freedom — not just for me, for everybody.” He was just taken into ICE custody.
The fact that this administration is hell bent on punishing Kilmar Abrego Garcia while rewarding Ghislane Maxwell tells you all you need to know about their violent racism and misogyny.
Let’s be clear: deporting Kilmar Abrego Garcia to Uganda makes no sense—it’s not his home country. Nothing about this process has been fair. ICE is targeting him with cruelty. This is the weaponization of government, not justice.
Kharkiv tonight. People chanting “Putin Khuylo”, which essentially means Putin go f yourself

Just walking around the hellscape that is my Chicago neighborhood this morning
AMEN!!
Ooh, look. When we covered the climate impacts of machine learning (“AI”) on Rare Earth in June we found it really frustrating that none of the tech companies would tell anyone the water and energy costs. Now Google has made at least some of it public. More of this! (and preferably raw data too).
It isn’t normal for a president to repeatedly threaten the use of military force against American citizens. Treating the National Guard as a political pawn disrespects those who serve and undermines public trust in our military.
Yes. How can a Chef Jose Andres and a Putin exist at the same time, breathe the same air? I’m sick of the Trump Regime treating that horrible man, Putin as a head of state. He is a war criminal. He invaded a sovereign country. The nonstop messaging to him should be “Get Out!”
A peace agreement with Putin is a contradiction in terms. ICYMI @markhertling.bsky.social: www.thebulwark.com/p/putin-alwa...

To see like a dictator is to collapse complexity into fear, enemies, and binaries. Trump turned vision into a weapon—training millions to see only through his eyes. #Democracy #Authoritarianism #Trump #PoliticsOfVision #SeeingLikeADictator
Thank you for posting here and for highlighting this lunacy. Are there any GOP legislators who you can convince to join you in setting things right?
