you’ll know if the president buys the farm because really weird shit will start happening in the crypto markets out of nowhere at least three or four hours before anybody says anything publicly
Cooking, reading, & riding for the next 4 years. Pretty sure my grandparents who emigrated from Ukraine & Lithuania in the early 20th century would be aghast at the shit show the US has become.

Had D POTUS rung up $37T debat, started a trade war, knocked job growth down from the 200,000s to 10,000's , tried to fire fed gov, fired experts who had the temerity to contradict him and his cultists with facts, and sounded loony (birds and windmills!) we'd be in impeachment or 25thA territory
A Labor Day reminder: today there isn't a single city, metro area, or state in the U.S. where a full-time minimum-wage worker can afford a modest 2-bedroom apartment. Millions of people with jobs—even multiple jobs—aren't safe from homelessness in this country.

Ghislaine Maxwell's deposition was not under oath. She was not video taped, which is very unusual for a deposition. And there are many cuts where they stopped the audio tapes so lawyers could confer with her off-the-record. None of that stuff is the way you do a deposition.
ABC News is still calling RFK Jr. a “vaccine skeptic.” The dude was one of the most prominent anti-vaccine activists for decades. There’s video of him in 2023 saying that there’s no vaccine which is safe and effective. You can call him an anti-vaccine activist!
9 CDC Directors going back to 1977 speak out. What RFK Jr has done to our nation’s public health system "should alarm every American." It "is unlike anything we have ever seen at the agency, and unlike anything our country has ever experienced." www.nytimes.com/2025/09/01/o...
MO Gov Mike Kehoe is calling a special session to gerrymander the 5th District which encompasses Kansas City. He is specifically violating Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act, which bans any voting practice that denies or weakens the power of a racial minority to elect its preferred candidates.

In the wake of the latest scandal he has perpetuated, National Nurses United, the nation’s largest nurses union and professional organization, today called for Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., the Secretary of Health and Human Services, to be fired by President Donald Trump or to resign
Wealthy, well-connected, powerful men like Trump & Epstein used young girls for their own sick purposes & then discarded them like used tissues. Trump is an adjudicated rapist. He is guilty of rape and likely of a 13-yr-old child. White/Wealth Privilege is something else.🤬 #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles

Dave Matthews band - Trump and everybody in his White House can kiss my ass!
We do not fully grasp how damaging the SCOTUS’ presidential immunity decision was. What we know is it was a disaster and the huge damage it has caused is being compounded daily. That is because the result is a collaboration between corrupt justices, a supine Congress and a demented President.

Here’s what we are barreling towards: India and China sign massive trade agreements (coz of Trump), buoyed by Russian and Iranian oil. New markets and alliances open up in the East, all with the US on the outside and without the sway they once had. This is the price of America First.
U.S citizen temporarily detained by ICE says he regrets voting for Trump "We were brainwashed!"
RFK Jr., driving away with Rudy Guliani tied to the roof of his car
He has ZERO ability to do this. Please ignore him bullshit.
He did it in floridaa and admitted it to everybody
It’s a relief to see American governors standing up to Trump - unlike the ancient mothballs in Congress.
Pritzker on Trump sending troops into cities: "He has other aims other than fighting crime... he would like to stop the elections in 2026 or frankly take control of those elections. He'll just claim there's some problem with an election and then he's got troops on the ground that can take control."
J.B. Pritzker is 100% right. Please listen to him, pay attention, and join us in speaking out against authoritarianism and to protect free and fair elections.
Not white enough?
The same folks who were outraged over Uncle Herschel disappearing from a Cracker Barrel sign are silent when children are murdered while they pray. Tells you everything about what they value
A helpful heuristic is to put aside the Union vs. Confederacy construct and remember that the US Army fought a war against people who renounced their American citizenship to preserve slavery. They are honoring "Americans" who consciously abandoned that privilege: www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

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-...

Remember the Goolsbee Rule, also called the “pathological irony of crisis”: If you lose credibility, your statements begin to mean the opposite of what you say.
JB Pritzker just dropped a bomb, saying that Trump is putting military in U.S. cities because he might aim to stop the election in Nov 2026. Pritzker, who's Jewish, compared it to how the Nazis came to power in Germany: "Donald Trump is just following that playbook."
Release the Epstein files. We will not forget or be distracted. If Trump is not guilty he has nothing to fear except his long and close friendship with both Maxwell and Epstein. He knew what was happening and did nothing to stop it. He was complicit and probably an active participant.
Victims of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell will speak out publicly on Capitol Hill at 10:30 am on September 3, many of them for the first time. Expect Trump to create a diversion around that time. #BelieveTheGirls #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles #TrumpEpsteinPedoCoverUp
NEW: The trump administration attempted to remove 600 terrified unaccompanied minors to Guatemala in the middle of the night on a holiday weekend. Judge Sooknanan stopped it. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/the-sookna...
And be sure when you take a pic of it and post it to social media that you don’t confess to doing it yourself. It’s never “I did this” or “Look what I did.” It’s always “SOMEONE did this” or “Look what SOMEONE did.”
Remember, folks, it is a CRIME to draw with sidewalk chalk on the streets and sidewalks of Washington DC so when you do it be sure to invoke your Fifth Amendment right to remain silent if asked about it. #ChalkCrime
Also, when engaging in resistance using a sandwich, do not take any bites from it first, because DNA. And remember that your condiments can be used against you in a court of law.

In his last term Trump gave more taxpayer dollars to farmers harmed by his tariffs than the federal government spends each year building ships for the Navy. China stopped buying our soybeans and grain. Farmers lost their farms. Some committed suicide. www.forbes.com/sites/stuart...
Thank goodness. I am sick of this pedophile human-trafficking sex program run by the Trump and his MAGA administration. There is no way they are not taking advantage of these children, alone with no adult to help them. These people are predatory rapists who support the predatory rapist in chief.

Here's the complaint filed late last night. One of the named plaintiffs is as young as 10. Judge Sooknanan already entered a TRO to bar the removal of named plaintiffs, and a new TRO just hit the docket for the larger putative class. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
DEVELOPING: Advocates are seeking a court order to block the Trump administration’s effort to deport hundreds of unaccompanied minor children to Guatemala. Judge abruptly moved 3 pm hearing up to 12:30 after she was notified that some children “are in the process of being removed" today.
This is the second judge in a week that has brought up the fact that the government can't be trusted with clear instructions - likely because the government ignored Judge Boasberg's order to turn the planes around last March saying "verbal orders from judges don't count."
These are literally kids…
1/7 Trumpism is a cheap American copy of Putinism. Both rely on spectacle, disinformation, and manufactured chaos—tools perfected by Vladislav Surkov, Putin’s shadowy strategist. But while Putinism serves imperial goals, Trumpism is a reality show with authoritarian ambitions

🇩🇪 Merz: We are making every effort to put an end to war. But all our efforts in recent weeks have met with an even more aggressive reaction from the Moscow regime against Ukrainian people.
