The biggest scandal in US public life *ought* to be that we are the richest country in history & yet our infrastructure sucks, our transportation choices suck, our cities suck, our healthcare sucks, our public administration sucks, & in dozens of little ways, our daily lives suck.
Meanwhile in New York someone has dressed up as Trump in a hospital gown with an IV infusion of bleach. *Chef's kiss 😘👌
Another big crook like Trump!!
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...
The President of Portugal Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa called the orange felon a Russian asset in a live televised speech. Well done, this is how you do it. 👏
New Mexico is overriding the federal government on the topic of COVID19 vaccines to ensure their residents can access them. States hold a tremendous amount of public health power. They should use it.
One thing that's particularly maddening about what's happening today—beyond that it's happening—is that when people talk about how we are moving toward authoritarianism, toward fascism, by a collection of narcissistic sociopaths, many Americans' eyes glaze over.
Why don’t you send everyone proof of life first? (Either way, Chicago doesn’t want you here)
Miller is a lying POS!!!
Massive walkout underway at CDC. RFK jr. must resign so that we can be safe.
This makes me question the president’s health more than the size of his ankles
Communist regimes: Own companies Control their central banks Use tariffs to insulate their economies Use armies, false charges, home raids & arrests to intimidate the opposition Idolize their leaders with posters & praise Sound familiar?
Not since the Nationals won the World Series have I seen D.C. as united as now, against boots and guns in the streets.
Veterans are speaking out. Trump's use of Troops against Americans isn't leadership—it's an abuse of power. We served the Constitution, not a king, a bully, or a dictator.
Go, Iowa!
“on Tuesday, for the second time this year, a Democrat appeared to flip a conservative-leaning district in the Iowa Senate…” www.nytimes.com/2025/08/26/u...
this stuff is such a disgrace. a free citizen of a free country should be ashamed to engage in it.
No sugarcoating. We have work to do to keep the republic. joycevance.substack.com/p/only-monday
Denmark summons top US diplomat over alleged operations in Greenland on.ft.com/4oSRTVC
With Lisa Cook suing to challenge Trump's firing of her, experts in mortgage law tell me her lawyer can now use discovery to dig into the role Trump loyalist William Pulte played in singling out mortgages of her, Schiff and Letitia James for scrutiny: newrepublic.com/article/1996...
This is your Democratic campaign message for 2026
The trash takes itself out!
The latest set of federal employees speaking out in fear, frustration, and commitment to their mission to protect people - FEMA employees publish the Katrina Declaration
Ironically, pretrial release of one criminal defendant in particular is substantially responsible for where we are today.
If he is removed to Uganda, Americans of good faith should take up a collection to set Mr. Abrego Garcia and his family up comfortably in a free Western country that will take them, where, frankly, they may well better off than we. We owe them that much.
He’s as dumb as Trump!!
It's high time for us to consider that we Americans owe our Constitution and democratic heritage far more than our fortunes and sacred honor.
At Lincoln Park Zoo we call it Gorilla Warfare!!
And the GOP is A OK with this? Shame on you. Get this Russian slave cretin out to the funny farm now.
The latest thing Trump has done to DC: Scare the visitors away. Damaging all the businesses, large and small, that depend on them. Along the National Mall today, 1pm, on a stunningly beautiful Saturday afternoon in late August. (Article and more photos to come later today.)
Trump played up a nick on his ear like it was serious combat wound for months but we’re all supposed to just ignore everything going on with his hands and ankles like there’s no issue.
In case anyone is still wondering why Bolton was raided
Trump to America: Putin wants peace. Putin to America: Trump is my useful idiot.
Putin has Trump’s number!!
He’s been into Grass for years! (Trump)
The Colorado Attorney General responds to Trump’s demand to free Tina Peters with a big middle finger.
No surprise !
A woman who criticized Ghislaine Maxwell’s transfer to their facility in an interview has been transferred out to another facility which houses violent offenders. Trump’s DOJ is now punishing people who criticize his sex offender friends. www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article...
Loco boy!!
The "president" is out of his mind.
He's such a psycho.
Screw JD Vance!!
Former Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull: “When you see Trump with Putin, as I have on a few occassions, he’s like the 12-year old boy that goes to high school and meets the captain of the football team. ‘My hero!’ It’s really creepy.”
I’ve read all the posts, watched all the speeches, interviews and press conferences for years, and I don’t recall a single time when Trump has blamed Russia’s invasion of Ukraine on Putin.
It was a summer Americans would never, ever forget.
newrepublic.com/post/199253/...
They all know he’s nuts so it’s not a surprise!!
Trump: On war criminal Putin: “I’ve always had a fantastic relationship with him” On sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell: “I wish her well” On pedophile Epstein: “He’s a lot of fun to be with” On J6: “It was a day of love” To everyone who has enabled this evildoer, a pox on you and your houses.
Stupid, Ignorant, Uninformed, And Corrupt…. Trump: "We are now the only Country in the World that uses Mail-In Voting." He's right – except for the United Kingdom, Switzerland, Germany, Australia, Canada, India, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, Russia, and 22 other countries.
Crow: "Look at what happened. US military personnel in uniform literally were on hands & knees rolling out a red carpet for the most murderous dictator of the 21st century...we keep on acting like Putin deserves to be brought out in open like any of head of state. This is a historic embarrassment."
Ja, es ist wahr. blueartdecor.com/products/ger...
Imagine if they’d had sandwiches. 🥪
Doesn’t she have boyfriend Corey Lewandowski to protect her?? We’re paying for him, too.
Don't poke the bear.
As we head towards Trump’s Fascist takeover, here's something to give you hope. (The bar is very low) 1. Trump and MAGA are deeply reckless and aligned with incompetent assholes. 2. USA is a big country 3. The majority hate Trump. 4. Epstein and the Economy 5. We have a history of revolution
If the sub don’t fit, you must acquit!
What goes around comes around!!
BREAKING: LOS ANGELES (AP) - California Gov. Newsom calls for Nov. 4 special election on redistricting plan aimed at adding Democratic US House seats.
Don’t forget Destroy the Rose Garden and pave over what’s left!!
Trump 2028 isn’t a joke. Donald Trump doesn’t believe the rules apply to him, and he’ll do anything in his power to hijack a 3rd term. Wake up, America. You will not have a country if Trump rigs this election.
BREAKING: An Illinois judge denies Texas AG Ken Paxton’s petition to enforce arrests against Texas House Democrats in Illinois, ruling that Illinois lacks the authority to compel state law enforcement to carry out Texas’ civil warrants. Background: www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
"Crime was *such* a pressing issue in DC that Donald Trump found it necessary to first figure out how to put up a flagpole on the White House grounds, lay the plans for a $200 million ballroom, host a bunch of crypto dinners, release a cell phone plan and a crypto coin."
Don’t they say a lot of homeless nationwide are Veterans?? Where are the Veteran’s organizations to combat this??
Today’s Daily Cartoon @newyorker.com
A late night message from Gavin Newsom
The White House directive for the Smithsonian to "align messaging" with a political task force is a sanitized term for creating a ministry of truth. This is how democratic erosion accelerates. We must not be silent.
As the tweet says, this isn’t a cash strapped regional school that needs to focus on career oriented majors to attract dollars and students. It’s one of the premier universities in the country.
Beautiful!!
NEW: Gavin Newsom announces a "HISTORIC" event this Thursday
"For their whole lives, Trump and Kennedy have gotten away with contemptible behavior. They occupy high office after living sordid lives...The contrast with David Rose, Marine and police officer, who lived a life of courage and public service, is striking." www.thebulwark.com/p/the-worst-...
I listened when I voted against him!!
A state demanding its museums reflect a leader's "view of history" has a dark past. • Nazi Germany had its "Great German Art" exhibitions. • The USSR had Socialist Realism. • Now, the WH demands the Smithsonian promote “Americanism". History is warning us. Are we listening?
NEW: Gavin Newsom posts message directed at Mike Johnson
“Donald, thanks for the compliment!” before adding: “Let’s not lie to the public, you and I both know you have no authority to take over Chicago. By the way, where are the Epstein files?” Gotta love JB! www.chicagotribune.com/2025/08/11/g...
Today would be a great day to release the Epstein files.
I used to like her when she was at MSNBC!!😡
Meiselas: Just looking at that shit-eating grin on Pam Bondi, who's covering up for a pedo sex trafficking ring behind them...Just mocking the American people while Americans are suffering. What pathetic, vile pieces of trash. Every single one of them in that Trump regime.
Tonight’s dumb napkin cartoon…
Versailles on the Potomac!!
Stephen Colbert is going SCORCHED EARTH right now. To RFK Jr: “Fuck you, you roid-addled nepo carnie! Fuck you, you roadkill-munching Luddite human slim jim!”
oh THANK GOODNESS because i wasn't going to be able to make it
What was he serving??
Of course, it wouldn’t be concerning to her—she’s a monster!
J B is the best!!
Pritzker: Neither Texas nor the FBI at the federal level has the authority to arrest these Texas Democrats They’re welcome to visit to take in the great views and enjoy the incredible restaurants we have. But they won’t be taking anyone home with them, or out of the state.
Tulsi is a Russian asset.
Spanberger: The fact that my opponent couldn’t answer a question about the DOGE cuts and the impact they’ve had on Virginia is outrageous. We know from the last jobs report that Virginia is the only state with statistically significant job losses because of the attacks on Virginia’s workforce.
Appreciation post for this incredible American showing up in Marjorie Taylor Greene’s own district to say HELL NO to the chaos, cruelty, and coverups. When grandmas are grabbing neon signs and oxygen tanks to speak truth you know the tide is turning.
Today would be a good day to release the Epstein Files. Unredacted. In their entirety.
Corey Lewandowski traveled with Kristi Noem to Argentina. Taxpayers are footing the bill for this.
Can’t they pay for their own fun like the Coldplay couple?
