The hypocrisy is disheartening...I am exhausted😔
❌🧊 ICE OUT OF CHICAGO!! Rally & march on Tuesday, Sept. 9th, 5:00 pm, at Michigan Ave. & Ida B. Wells Dr. in downtown Chicago. This action is organized by the Coalition Against the Trump Agenda @chicago-cata.bsky.social & IL Coalition for Immigrant & Refugee Rights @icirr.bsky.social
More partisan threats coming to withhold funding approved by Congress for public transportation in majority Democratic cities.
💔
105 Amazon workers in Maspeth were fired for organizing. That’s illegal. That’s union-busting. And we won’t stop fighting back, side by side with #amazonteamsters and #teamsterslocal804 When we fight together we win together.
🚨BREAKING: The Supreme Court through an unexplained order Monday allowed Donald Trump to, for now, remove the last Democratic commissioner on the Federal Trade Commission in a decision that represents a grave threat to the independence of federal agencies. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
WHAT THE ACTUAL F*CK
Educate yourself about transgender issues. Challenge harmful stereotypes & misinformation. Trans rights are human rights. Trans people deserve safety & to live their lives authentically, without government discrimination and prejudice. Be a proud ally.
"The group brings together hundreds of grandparents nationwide who lived through diseases such as polio, tuberculosis and measles — illnesses once thought eliminated in the United States..." www.kgw.com/article/news...
We have noticed a recent uptick in false social media posts regarding Chicago, including misleading videos, old videos reposted as new, and unfounded rumors. Everything feels urgent, but we ask people to take an extra minute to double check information and avoid sowing confusion. We Keep Us Safe

Downtown #Pittsburgh looked incredible tonight at moonrise, and I was even able to capture it behind the Gulf Tower. Even though the river wasn’t smooth, I kinda dig those shimmering reflections.
We live in a country where the official policy is that race can’t be considered for giving people access to education but is the primary consideration for caging and disappearing people. The official policy.

Gov. Josh Shapiro: "What the president is doing is wrong. It injects chaos in communities...We're prepared should they try to deploy the National Guard against my will in any community across Pennsylvania."
💔 I wish I could say this is surprising.
Well done Chicago !
Keep up the good work, good people!
That says it all!
New ads going up across Washington, D.C.
I'm old enough to remember when polio put my friends into iron lungs. We dutifully lined up at school to get vaccinated. We eradicated the disease. We protected the common good and saved lives. What RFK Jr. is doing to public health in America is a disgrace.
President for sale
‼️
In an exclusive interview with the Guardian, Amy Dorris alleged that Trump accosted her outside the bathroom in his VIP box at the tournament in New York on 5 September 1997.
They have been fed superiority propaganda for decades. For instance, they have 'common sense' while others are brainwashed academics. They think their insular communities are somehow more noble and god-approved than anything suburban or urban. They happily voted for their own shackles. F THEM.
Truth
Duckworth: "Let's make it clear -- the President of the United States essentially just declared war on a major city in his own nation. This is not normal. This is not acceptable behavior."
Our country would never tolerate this kind of reckless rhetoric from any other world leader. If such a statement were made abroad, the United States would respond swiftly to show exactly what it means to attempt to declare war on our soil. A foreign leader posting an image like this, depicting an
Trump claps for himself at his arrival at the US Open – a denial-anxiety response to the audible boos being directed at him.
💔🤢
Pettiest man alive.
AGREED
💯
Truth
🤬ing disgusting
I have read Trump’s “war department” EO. This is nothing. He changed nothing. He added pretend secondary titles with no power under the law. He will make the government spend hundreds of millions for vanity labeling purposes. If you’re in the media and you don’t harp on that, you’re failing.
We used to be a serious country, although it does seem like that was a long time ago.
Double Standards
Absurdity!!! The sad part is his followers will believe the BS🤢
Reminder: At the start of his legal career, RFK Jr. failed the bar, was forced out as a D.A., and got arrested for heroin. Without the Kennedy name, that story ends there.
✋️
The most destructive and damaging individual in my lifetime! 💙👏🏼👏🏼👇🏼💙

Epstein victims' attorney Kuvin: [Epstein's co-conspirators] remain unnamed. The feds know who they are, but they’re refusing to disclose it. The public needs to know, and the public deserves to judge for themselves why someone may have been at Epstein’s home with a bunch of topless underage girls
This!!!
Sen. Warren Daniel (R–NC, District 46) was caught trading stocks right on the Senate floor. Didn’t even wait for a break. Playing the market on the taxpayers’ time…pure abuse of power.
Trumps entire cabinet is comprised of bottom of the barrel losers who have no qualifications except for licking his boots. Americans cannot rely on any of them, whether it’s to keep them safe or healthy.
Oh, so guns *do* kill people? Gotcha.
Today's bulletin is a must read: www.meidasplus.com/p/today-in-p...
So Ron DeSantis is abolishing vaccine mandates for schoolchildren. And Dr. Oz is proposing that Medicare use AI death panels to deny coverage. And RFK Jr. is making it harder for Americans to get vaccines. It's like these ignorant zealots are in a contest to see who can kill the most Americans.
RFK JR: It's going to have a it's going to it's going to be the biggest infusion of federal dollars into rural health care in American history. SANDERS: You know why? Because you're cutting $150 billion for rural hospitals. You're putting $50 billion back. That's not an infusion.
Republicans value women for the kitchen and the bedroom only.
Hahaha
Breaking: Peaceful activists, many with disabilities, are being arrested at the Capitol right now. These individuals are putting themselves on the line to do all they can to save healthcare for millions of Americans.
Next they'll be rewriting textbooks to say Japanese American internment camps were delightful summer resorts.
Guess which network is ignoring the survivors? Fox isn’t news.
While tariffs wreck the economy and prices soar, the GOP is focused on covering up the Epstein files and rigging electoral maps over delivering a proper, long-term government funding package. Americans deserve a government that actually delivers for the people—not the top 1%.
Fox News had to pay 3/4 of a BILLION dollars for lying to its viewers. And it STILL lies.
REP. @yassaminansari.bsky.social on the bipartisan demand for the Epstein files: “This is the most corrupt administration in 🇺🇸 history, and this story shows it more than anything.”
when you’re upset at the cool kids for not inviting you to their lunch table
Let’s make sure the Epstein victims get the attention they deserve. REPOST all the Epstein/Trump content you see and make it trend! #Epstein #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles #Trump-Epstein mdavis19881.substack.com/p/epstein-xi...
It’s time for these victims receive justice. It’s time for Trump to stop protecting the rich & powerful & to start telling the truth. It’s also time for Republicans in Congress to find the courage to sign the discharge petition that would force a vote to release the Epstein files. (2/2)
We’re back in session after Speaker Johnson let us out early at the end of July, feeling the pressure from our subpoenas for the Epstein files. Today, @oversightdemocrats.house.gov sat down with survivors who endured horrific abuse. What we heard was beyond disturbing. (1/2)
💞 powerful survivors 🩵🩵🩵Thank you for your courage! 🩵🩵🩵
As many as 100 survivors of Jeffrey Epstein and other victims of sexual abuse are expected to attend a rally Wednesday in Washington, D.C. as a bipartisan Congressional effort gains steam to force the U.S. Department of Justice to make public its controversial files on the disgraced sex trafficker.
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?"
IMPORTANT Message from Meidas Founder BEN MEISELAS AND MEIDASTOUCH NETWORK AUG 29 Next week we will be streaming the massive press conference involving the victims of Epstein and Ghislaine. It is an honor that Meidas will be the main streaming destination… open.substack.com/pub/meidasto...
NEW: my office has received disturbing whistleblower reports that the Trump administration plans to separate 700 children from their families, lawyers, and support systems. Disappearing vulnerable children beyond the reach of American law and oversight is beyond depravity.
Today, we heard harrowing stories from survivors of Epstein's abuse. Epstein is dead, but the hurt & harm he caused is alive and well. We'll keep pushing for accountability, including a public Congressional hearing with survivors and the release of the full Epstein files.
This kid just figured out there’s things.
This labor day let’s never forget that the President of the United States has laid off a quarter million hard working Americans in the name of efficiency while simultaneously spending $200 million dollars on a golden ballroom for the White House.
This is REALLY REALLY dangerous.
This seems important… 🚨 Trump is set to make a televised announcement from the Oval Office on September 2, 2025, at 2 PM ET.
Bet your diabetic grandparents were thrilled when Biden negotiated $35/mo. insulin! Well, too bad for granny! Felon Trump reversed Biden's victory for seniors against price gouging. Even MAGAs didn't vote for this!
Folks. Please read this. It’s just one page of simple declarations from a 10 year kid from Guatemala who doesn’t want to be sent back there. The US government is trying to do so, on a holiday weekend, and was going to just *do it* until folks started pushing back. 10. Years. Old. WTAFF?

What in the ever loving fuck is going on here
💯
💯, no notes:
Corporations socialize their losses and privatize their gains.
Never ever ever ever does ANY Republican get to say they are pro-family or pro-life. They are evil and death personified.
Inhuman. “I don’t have any choice” is a lie.
I vaguely remember tweeting something like the country that effectively captures this free energy source at scale will rule the 21st century. whelp.
Disgraceful.
