It’s still early, but pretty good turnout so far for Bernie Sanders and Graham Platner’s (running against Susan Collins) rally here in Maine today.
"Even in a long line of anti-labor GOP presidents, Trump stands out. And while he may not succeed in completely destroying collective bargaining in America, he’s poised to strike terrible blows against organized labor." — @paulwaldman.bsky.social

Russia tried to assassinate the President of European Commission Ursula von der Leyen by jamming her plane while landing. So far Europe has ignored the issue as to not give Russia the attention it wants and to quietly prevent themselves from reacting to this significant escalation by the Kremlin.
If they enact a new illegal congressional map, Missouri will be sued.
It’s September! The leaves are falling, the air is chilled and Congress is back. Ok, let’s see the Epstein files, Mr Speaker.
Kamala Harris would not be secretly trying to deport innocent children to Guatemala if she was our president instead right now.

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.

Hey Congress – make Alex Acosta's testimony public and televised. There's absolutely no ethical reason for it to be private and transcribed. Nefarious AF. We need to hear your questions. We want to see him squirm. We need to see him squirm. Yet another sign of a cover-up.
He was born in hell
Like if you agree…
US not prepared for war with Russia, it's recommended local and state governments take initiative due to near collapse of federal agencies under Trump. Unlike previous wars, this one will reach the homeland.
True?
The focus on "urban crime" is simply a heads up, "Black people are next."

New in PN: "By the time you read this, the White House may have put out a Labor Day statement. It will no doubt offer an effusive tribute to Trump, who in his infinite beneficence has delivered workers a utopia of prosperity. But back on Earth, he's the most anti-labor president in modern history."
As we begin a new month, my law firm is litigation 51 voting and election cases in 25 states. 6 in Arizona 6 in Georgia 4 in Florida 4 in North Carolina 8 involve redistricting
Pritzker: "National Guard troops, any kind of troops, on the streets of American city don't belong unless there is an insurrection, unless there is truly an emergency. There is not."
Trump says without tariffs, our country would be “completely destroyed, and our military power would be instantly obliterated.”

When you’re a parent of small children, you pray for a moment of peace to shower or drink your coffee or just… think. When you drop your youngest off at university and the house is so quiet, you long for their joyful noise.
If Biden had done that, oh scandal!!
He starts randomly jabbering on about getting into heaven. Mysterious bruising on his hand. He disappears from the public eye for days. Even a child would suspect something was up. Everyone but Congress and mainstream media.
Pritzker: "No one in the administration -- the president or anybody under him -- has called anyone in my administration or me. It's clear that in secret they're are planning this invasion with US troops."
One week ago, thousands of New Yorkers tried something new. They heard about it last minute. They didn’t know where it would take them or who they would meet. It was free, earnest, even educational. It was the #ZcavengerHunt and it was a thing of beauty.
New Mexico has issued a public health order that removes federal restrictions to COVID-19 vaccine access so that pharmacies in New Mexico can vaccinate people of all ages and risk profiles. Every state need to do this!
Pritzker: "We don't want troops on the streets of American cities. That's un-American and frankly the president ought to know better. This one doesn't seem to. He hasn't read any books. He doesn't seem to understand the Constitution or the laws."

I fail to see the logic in a judge ruling that tariffs are illegal and then allowing them to continue for months. That would be like ruling that armed robbery is illegal but allowing the criminal to continue his armed robberies while he appeals his case.
Surgery, arteries
I'm still waiting for the relentless onslaught of media demands for a press conference and calls to resign.

In Los Angeles, this should be done everywhere. The pics of Americans snatched by ICE Gestapo is being projected on the side of a detention center in Los Angeles. #iceout #losangeles #california
Everyone parrots the line, “They’ll just replace Trump with another figurehead.” Bullsh*t. Later today in my latest JHN Newsletter I’ll break down why Trump is the one irreplaceable piece of this machine. When he’s gone...the whole thing starts to crack.
A mafia boss
America doesn't have a president. I don't know what the hell it is, but it sure as fuck isn't a president.
Frightening
😳
What in the ever loving fuck is going on here
After Rep Ty Burns pleaded guilty to domestic abuse, injuring his wife & assaulting his teenage daughter, it's unclear whether OK GOP & House Speaker Kyle Hilbert will take action. They even kept the case against Burns secret until Thursday, Aug. 28. THIS IS WHAT THEY DO & THIS IS WHO THEY ARE!
“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.
Why is no one helping us? All we as laypeople can do is run for office or vote. But Scotus and congress are sitting with their thumbs up their asses, giving our country over to Putin.
For the same reason Hegseth survived the Signal scandal - so he can deploy the military to harm Americans without resistance.
So that the officers he places in positions of power will OWE HIM for their position, and transfer their allegiance to TRUMP instead of to The Constitution. He’s going to attack the Republic (us) using the American military. It’s a slow-moving rolling coup in plain sight.
Peter Thiel runs the military now. Manages all our military, CIA and FBI days including giving ICE data - why are we not nearing a louder drum on this danger to America???
He wants to replace them with his own loyalists who will do whatever he tells them to do even though we already know it’s going to be illegal and cost thousands of lives. He doesn’t just wanna rule this country. He wants to rule the world.
Exactly
Trump has fired fired the top US Military officers. All of them. How come?
What song are you playing when you hear the news?? 🎶🎵🎼🎉🎊🍾
The way that housing co-ops work in Switzerland may seem foreign to many. But the central idea is simple: What if homeownership had no profit motive and no capital gains? Advocates say their model could reshape how the world thinks about affordable housing. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/26/r...

Release the Epstein files.

Ha. Haha. Haaa. I get it.
What a ridiculous person.
Jones: We have a presidential administration that has more outrage about the changing of the cracker barrel logo than they do about changing the policies that allow our children to be gunned down in school…
Who voted for war with Venezuela?
I love it!

We were taught to fear communism & socialism but Christian Nationalism wasn’t even on the radar. Genius.
He can pretend to be dead all he wants. I still want the Epstein files released.
This is the most compelling case I’ve seen yet that America is no longer a democracy but an authoritarian state. Not a *soon-to-be* authoritarian state—a *current* one.
