RFK Jr. Is 'Compromising the Health of This Nation,' Say 1,000+ Staffers Demanding Resignation www.commondreams.org/news/rfk-jr-...
Two more Republicans. That’s all we need to force a vote in the House on releasing the Epstein files. If you live in a GOP district, your representative needs to hear from you: indivisible.org/resource/cal...
AOC: If anybody says “this isn’t fair, I'm gonna have to divest all my stocks if I run for congress” maybe you should stay home.
Verizon expects to pay $2 BILLION less in taxes next year. Lumen Tech has requested a $400 MILLION tax refund. Diamondback Energy is projecting its cash tax rate to drop by 4%. That's billions less for America. And their CEOs and shareholders will keep it all. Great.
New state motto: Bring the grandkids to Florida to grow natural immunity!
Corruption so obvious even Fox Business sees it 👀
Google won’t be forced to sell its Chrome browser and can keep paying companies to keep its search engine as the default on smartphones, thanks to a federal ruling. In other words? Google gets to remain a monopoly and keep its harmful, anti-competitive practices. Shameful.
Thou Shalt Release The Damn Epstein Files!
📌Listen to the women, not ... HIM
For more than a decade, Andrew Cuomo pretended he had nothing to do with deteriorating subways and endless delays — even as he siphoned off funding from the MTA he controlled.
The 100 lowest-paying US corporations spent $644B on stock buybacks from 2019 to 2024. Buybacks artificially boost share prices and inflate CEO pay. The typical worker at these companies earned $35k last year. Meanwhile, the average CEO was paid $17.2M See the problem?
BREAKING: A bipartisan group of members of Congress have come to a compromise on a bill to ban congressional stock trading. This is a hugely popular reform and it's encouraging that Congress is finally listening. Now it's time to get it passed!
Schumer is out of his fucking mind. www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...
I'm always blown away by how smoothly @kateshaw.bsky.social can synthesize and communicate her impossibly vast knowledge of the law and court cases with such insight and precision, but even by that standard this convo w @ezrakleinbot.bsky.social is top tier stuff. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/02/o...
The House and Senate are back in session this week. Who else thinks it's time to ban members of Congress from trading stocks?
Bless these brave women!
“Fire RFK Jr. now.” From @motherjones.com ⬇️ www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
We are overdue for a “ Have you no decency” kind of moment.
"and many of them are on the younger side"...
RFK Jr. will face "hard questions" over CDC shakeup, according to Thune. The Senate majority leader expressed frustration over the firings of recently confirmed officials.

Over the long weekend, the Trump administration quietly tried to deport 76 unaccompanied children to Guatemala – ignoring laws protecting such minors from speedy deportations. Thankfully, a federal judge blocked the effort. The cruelty of this regime knows no bounds.
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?"
Kakistocracy!!!!!

Federal judge: Trump's National Guard deployment to LA violated the Posse Comitatus Act. It's "an extraordinarily important ruling," says @lizagoitein.bsky.social.
DOGE cutting that waste and fraud.
BREAKING: Appeals court REJECTS Trump’s attempt to fire Democratic FTC Commissioner Rebecca Slaughter. The judges ruled “the government has no likelihood of success on appeal,” representing a major setback for Trump’s attempt to purge independent agencies.
Do those Nobel people offer a "Meme of the Year" award? =====================
The Republicans Are Really This Stupid.
Officers who shatter car windows aren’t being disciplined — they’re being promoted. One officer who smashed a window in front of a local TV reporter now has a senior ICE position overseeing operations on the East Coast.
October 18, 2025. Mark your calendar: No Kings 2.
Big thanks to all of you who mobilized on Labor Day to demand a country that puts workers first.

I’d like to believe Rudy’s story about the car crash, but I remember Shop Rite 2022.
You're still a selfish piece of shit. www.bbc.com/news/article...
I'm aware that the President likes to go on television and beg me to call him to ask for troops. I find it strange, as Chicago doesn't want troops. I also have experience asking him for assistance – just to have the rug pulled up from underneath me when execution meets reality.
Jesse Watters accidentally declared that the Fox News merch is made in China. So much for America First and made in the U.S.A.
"Our democracy is only as strong as the people willing to defend it. State and local officials are on the frontlines of this work, and they must stay firm in the tough battles ahead — for the systems they manage and the voters they serve. The stakes couldn’t be higher." -- Pamela Smith
Looked to me like the Trump tariffs WERE the chaos. Plus, he’s free to come to Congress for authority to declare a trade war.
The burden on America will keep getting heavier until something gives.
All Level 3 and 2 evacuation orders were dropped for the Flat Fire by Tuesday morning as crews continued to make progress.
Dangerously, President Trump and HHS Sec. Kennedy are wreaking havoc on our already broken and dysfunctional healthcare system. You don’t make America healthy again by throwing 15 million people off of their health care and undermining science. Secretary Kennedy must resign.
Want some encouragement? Graham Platner, DEM for Senate candidate in Maine, to run against GOP Susan Collins. Kinda inspiring.
This week there are two Epstein Files-related bills in Congress. One gives Republicans the power to decide what you see. The other releases EVERYTHING to the public & protects victims. I'm joining Reps. Massie & Khanna to protect victims & release ALL the files DIRECTLY to the people.
Wealth taxes NOW. It’s patriotic to do your part and fund society for the workers you exploit in order to get this rich. #taxtherich

KASIE HUNT: Over the summer you said, “There’s no vaccine that’s safe and effective”. Do you still believe that? RFK JR: “I never said that.” KASIE HUNT: “Play the clip.” RFK JR (clip): “There’s no vaccine that is safe and effective.” (March 2024) ht: @cwebbonline.com
🚨Congress is back from recess today. If they’re serious about protecting democracy in this crisis and beyond, here’s what they *must* do—immediately. 🧵
Outdated laws from the 1700s and 1800s give the president tremendous power to use the military at home. It’s past time for Congress to repeal the Alien Enemies Act, close loopholes in the Posse Comitatus Act, and reform the Insurrection Act. bit.ly/4oxXJLN
This was when news reporting lost all sense of humanity&pride.No honesty,no apologies if something reported was incorrect.No shame, whatsoever,for who they hurt,who they sided with.They spoke like it was the gospel truth.Always biased with whoever,paid them the most bucks!They ALL worshipped money!
This Man Is A Fucking Fruit Cake Full Of Nuts
"The AIDS epidemic was a society-altering catastrophe, one that inspired legions of future doctors—gay and straight alike—to pursue careers in infectious disease. Today they make up a disproportionate share of the specialty’s senior ranks."
Susan Collins should actually be *concerned*. I'm not sure if Maine wants this, but I've been waiting to hear someone tell everyone who Collins is for more than a decade.
Republicans’ Big, Beautiful-for-Billionaires bill made cruel and dangerous cuts to health care to give tax breaks to billionaires. They are taking health care away from RIers and harming our already-fragile health care system. I’ll do everything I can to reverse these cuts.
HOW ABOUT EVIL IDIOT?

We've got more for you on Labor Day. More than 82 percent of civilian federal workers have had their right to collectively bargain stripped in the largest act of union busting in US history. Unions are a voice from below, and their autonomy poses a threat to autocrats, Harold Meyerson writes:

Thank you on this labor day!!
Beef prices have hit record highs this Labor Day Weekend — in part thanks to Trump's tariffs. Remember when Trump said he would bring down the cost of groceries? https://youtu.be/9EXi6xyOXSk?feature=shared

“Frayed collar workers in gold plated times.” 30 years ago I issued a stark warning about the health of America’s working class. Watch and tell me what you think. https://youtu.be/8rW1kkAV-gw?feature=shared
The problem isn’t refugees on boats. The problem is oligarchs hoarding obscene amounts of wealth while most people fight to stay afloat. Wages aren't tied to inflation, so the working class keeps falling behind no matter how hard they work.
I am 76 & I have had most of these vaccinations at one time or another. Also vaccinations against Covid, Tetanus, plus Cholera & Yellow Fever when travelling in foreign countries. These prevented me catching horrible diseases & dying a gruesome death. They did not harm me, they protected me!
Nine former CDC directors basically said RFK Jr is a threat to public health.
Every evil act this man engages in was enabled by Democrats.
Some insiders have theorized that the White House installed Fugate to oversee a pivot away from traditional counterterrorism and to steer resources toward MAGA-friendly sheriffs and border security projects before eventually shuttering operations. (Published June)
