End of 3 weeks in magical EU & UK countries where the there are NO GUNS and the people are NOT targeted & punished daily by the cruel emotional & psychological terrorism of an ignorant petulant vengeful child. Life without Trump is pure paradise. So let’s remove him from power!!!
⚡️Ukraine's SBU files in absentia notice of suspicion against Kadyrov for war crimes. The Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) announced on Sept. 1 that it had filed in absentia a notice of suspicion against Chechen leader Ramzan Kadyrov, for various war crimes against Ukrainian soldiers.

Drawing down our presence in Europe to focus on the Indo-Pacific would reflect a recurring American error: our repeatedly misplaced confidence that we can predict the next war and optimize for it in advance. ICYMI @markhertling.bsky.social: www.thebulwark.com/p/withdrawin...
An upcoming news conference with victims of Jeffrey Epstein could be “explosive,” one of the congressmen pushing for full release of the files on Epstein predicts. Democratic Rep. Ro Khanna said the victims’ accounts will force lawmakers to vote on a bill requiring DOJ to release its files.
⚡️ Ukraine destroys Russian S-300 radar in occupied Crimea, military says. Radars serve as the "eyes" of an air defense system — without them, anti-aircraft units are effectively blind and unable to operate.
The world is moving on without Trump.
The ethos behind Kennedy’s Make America Healthy Again movement blames individual people for their chronic diseases and links Medicaid users’ value to their economic productivity.
⚡️ Russian map behind top general hints at ambitions to seize Odesa, Kharkiv. While Moscow has publicly insisted on full control of Donetsk, Luhansk, Kherson, and Zaporizhzhia oblasts, the map indicated possible plans extending to Odesa and Kharkiv.
We are suing Texas in two cases -- one voting, one redistricting.
Good grief. www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-r...
One felon awarding another felon. Who is surprised?
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.
Kamala Harris would not be secretly trying to deport innocent children to Guatemala if she was our president instead right now.
"Every one of these people is taking with them skills and knowledge that will be difficult to replace. But there may be no single individual whose departure better captures what is being lost and destroyed than Demetre Daskalakis."
And Chump is The Chief Spy among Us,or Krasnov,if You're Boss Putin.......
They should do it anyway for the environmental benefits.
Trump’s only focus right now is midterm voter suppression via illegal national voter ID mandate, redistricting in favor of more red house seats & removing ballot boxes and mail-in ballots. He’s terrified of being shellacked come 2026, and imprisoned come 2029.
⚡️ Zelensky announces faster air defense deliveries after deadly Russian strikes. "We are accelerating the supply of additional air defense systems to enhance protection against missiles," President Volodymyr Zelensky said.
"The courts have been unpersuaded that we live in a state of permanent national emergency that is global in scope and decades-long in duration, requiring swift executive action on the theory that Congress could never assemble in time to address the issue. … www.nationalreview.com/corner/divid...

Day 224 REALITY CHECK: The election was highly compromised. There was a coup. The Supreme Court was the primary lever. Everything we have witnessed is TREASON. There’s no way out of this without MASS MOVEMENTS of the people. No one is coming to save us. We must rise up in peaceful revolution NOW.

Felon trump is awarding the criminals and nazi regime
BREAKING: Trump announces that Rudy Giuliani will be awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom, which is the nation’s highest civilian honor. Note that Giuliani has been charged with felonies in two different states, including racketeering and has been found liable for over $100 million in damages.
As I wrote in the book. This is the exhausting part of the day where people send me stuff that's new to *them* and therefore think no one's ever thought of it:
Set your alarm! Norm & Jen go LIVE tonight at 8pm ET with the leaders fighting for unions, teachers & workers’ rights. Hear their stories, their vision, & how they’re standing up for a better tomorrow in the face of growing threats to democracy.
Nine former directors of Centers for Disease Control and Prevention joined forces to warn Health Secty Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is “endangering every American’s health." RFK Jr MUST be charged with manslaughter. Dem State AGs must charge him for killing Americans.
👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼
Trump: I FEEL GREAT NOTHING IS WRONG HERE LOOK A PHOTO OF ME GOLFING FROM A WEEK AGO Giuliani: I WAS HELPING SOMEONE DONT SPREAD CONSPIRACY THEORIES ABOUT MY CAR WRECK Trump: EPSTEIN IS OVER HE DIED A LONG TIME AGO GET OVER IT Sure, guys.
It is insane to me that the richest man in the world is using his global megaphone to call for millions of British people to be rounded up and deported (including my family) and somehow this isn’t even news.
This Labor Day (and all other days): Thank the workers who serve you. Appreciate the workers who care for you. Respect the workers who pick up your trash. Salute the workers who get you your mail. Honor the workers who teach your children. Pay all workers a living wage.
Mueller, the former FBI director and special counsel, had been subpoenaed by the House Oversight Committee as part of an investigation into Jeffrey Epstein.

Friends, I urge you to join a Workers Over Billionaires protest this Labor Day. Let’s honor the roots of this holiday by standing together to protest the exploitation and oppression of our tinpot dictator. bit.ly/4lMgKaR
I’m sorry, WHAT?
Happy Labor Day, Illinois!
"Perhaps the most telling comment last week came from a far less high-profile conservative. Students for Trump cofounder and MAGA diehard Ryan Fournier pleaded with Republicans to pass the extended Obamacare subsidies."
"To pretend that her death deserves the same recognition as that young soldier at the gate is obscene. It is a betrayal of the oath she once swore and a desecration of the sacrifice made by so many who kept faith with theirs."
Wages of unionized workers are 13% higher than their nonunion counterparts. But unions also set a higher pay standard that all workers enjoy. In high-union-density states, median household income is $12,000 higher than in low-union-density states. This is why unions are vital.

Illinois is now the number one state in the Midwest to work in. This ranking reflects our work in making Illinois the best state in the nation to do business, raise a family, and thrive.
Resistance is NOT futile.
All of them.
As we celebrate Labor Day, President Trump is rolling back the rights of federal workers to organize unions and collectively bargain. Eliminating these protections is a violation of workers' free speech rights.
This Wednesday..... let the truth come out....
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...
They think felon trump is a joke
Putin, Modi and Xi send Trump a pointed message at a key regional summit
CNN platforming Seb Gorka Martha Raddatz at ABC Interviewing Gov Wes Moore & being unhinged. Wes Moore needs to ask why she’s defending a rapist. Ask if her questions were written by Stephen Miller. Wes needs to pushback on a bought off press. I don’t get the constant defense mode. Offense only.
“I have faith in people outside of government. The professional organizations, doctors, nurses, and other providers—and also the parents…So I’m hopeful in that sense. I’m just not necessarily hopeful that the federal government is going to be the answer anymore…” open.substack.com/pub/thebulwa...
AND IMPEACHMENT
The six reliably pro-Trump justices are "racking up a rap sheet of constitutional abuses of staggering import." ICYMI Philip Allen Lacovara on the coming judgment of history:
JUST IN: Judge who blocked the transfer of about 600 Guatemalan minors from US to Guatemala Sunday is keeping a very tight leash on the government. Echoes of Alien Enemies Act litigation simply deafening here. Earlier: www.politico.com/news/2025/08...
Idea of the Day...
This Labor Day weekend as we celebrate the gains made by unions in our lives and enjoy barbecues and picnics with our loved ones, let's remember that the Epstein docs continue to be covered up by the GOP party of predators.
SET YOUR TIMERS
A proposal to censor info about lawmakers is being sold as a safety measure. But it won’t protect them from anything but investigative journalism. Contact your senator to tell them to protect their safety — and everyone else’s — without sacrificing transparency and accountability.
"No one in the administration – the president or anybody under him – has called anyone in my administration or me – have not called the city of Chicago or anyone else. So it's clear that, in secret, they're are planning this – well, it's an invasion with US troops." Gov. JB Pritzker
As the DoJ tells the court that it will not remove unaccompanied minors to Guatemala, we can only hope they’re telling the truth.
In the days since the Annunciation shooting, we’ve seen a deliberate effort to smear those calling for action as if they were mocking prayer. Nothing could be further from the truth. To refuse to act in the face of this evil is the real betrayal of faith.
In defense of Trump’s decision to deploy National Guard troops in the nation’s capital, the White House has put out a “fact sheet” of scary statistics on crime in Washington, DC. It’s about what you’d expect: a bunch of lazy, easily disproven garbage. The latest from @radleybalko.bsky.social:
Thank you for fighting. I hope the democrats in Congress vote NO on the reconciliation coming up. Close the government. If the democrats vote with Republicans, then you can forget the 2026 election
The party of “family values” is attacking our kids.
Then kick hungry out
You work hard – you deserve elected officials that work just as hard for you. House Democrats are fighting for livable wages, quality education, good health care, and a secure retirement.
NEWS: Trump and House Republicans' budget cuts seek to eliminate the HOME affordable housing program that’s built/rehabbed 1.3M homes in 30 yrs, including 540k in rural areas. 84% of those homes are in districts that voted for him. Rural families now face losing their lifeline.
“The future of our party is going to be decided by who steps up and fights for this moment” @mallorymcmorrow.bsky.social says as Democratic voters press their leaders to fight Trump. “And then, by the way, when we take back power, we need a party who is not afraid to use it.” #Velshi
This bitch will someday be held accountable
Great to stop by Hyde Park and see Chef Erick Williams. This Black Business Month and every month, we’re proud to show the world what Illinois is really all about.
Nazi gabbard belongs in prison
Tulsi Gabbard is *very obviously* a foreign intelligence asset and I hope we all live long enough to see her tried and convicted for it.
Florida is fortunate to be home to one of the largest veteran populations in the US. But federal cuts of services have left them without support. As Governor, I would lead Florida in filling the gap of national critical services for those who have served our nation.
About the weird DOJ Trump/Epstein interview: “It was a damage-control operation… not so much investigating Epstein and Maxwell’s crimes as attempting to exculpate President Donald Trump….“
bsky.app/profile/just...
This is the National Guard fighting crime - is that what we are supposed to believe? So, if they’re doing this, raking leaves, we don’t need them “fighting crime.” There is no emergency. There is no legal authority for the NG. Get the hell out of our city Trump.
