When it happens I’m going to buy a big cake. Like I mean a legit massive cake.
Great news for everyone who wants to force the Justice Department to release the Epstein files!
There is nothing too low for the shittiest bottom feeders on earth. Repulsive.
I know, I know, but: The president of the US saying, literally, "we're going in" in reference to sending the military to an American city for no reason beyond terrorizing the local population should be the most immediately impeachable shit imaginable
The president is sending the military to control American cities and if you're a reporter who's framing that illegal power grab as "pushing the boundaries of constitutionality" or "acting boldly to fight crime" or whatever, please go find another line of work where you won't get us all killed.
180 shots fired, 150 broken windows. Tumultuous firings and resignations at the CDC. The installation of a techno-optimist with a history of pushing unproven medical treatments. The month of August 2025 may go down as the worst in the history of the US Health and Human Services Department.
Catbait
Gotta be a troll.
We're calling on Minnesota Governor Walz to immediately call a special session for lawmakers to ban assault weapons in honor of the victims of the mass shooting at Annunciation Catholic School. ➡️ BradyUnited.org/mnaction
I hate this so much
THIS IS ALL MERRICK GARLAND’S FAULT.
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."
Everything we take for granted — weekends, paid vacations, sick leave, safer workplaces, health care — exists because of unions.
This is awesome. Let’s do this but like in all the places.
Jones: I would say to my colleagues who serve in government—keep your thoughts and prayers, keep your tweets. If you want to address gun violence, you don't need to tweet. What you need is a mirror. You have the power to change things.
Mike Johnson is next in line so he goes in, too.
The tragic loss of children’s lives in the Minneapolis school shooting is a moral call to act. Congress must pass real gun safety laws, ban assault weapons, close loopholes, and invest in community safety. Protecting our children is more important than protecting the gun lobby.
With O'Neill (apparently) taking over CDC (if they ever get around to firing Monarez), I think it's worth looking back to Project 2025 and asking what they actually intend to *do* to CDC. So, I went to remind myself today. Here's what's in store:
when it happens... I will be online ALL day. cancel my appointments. hold my calls. "what were you doing when you found out?" my grandchildren will ask. "the posts, children, I was reading the posts!!" I'll say, and we'll all crowd around my scrapbook containing the best ones
Pennsylvania's 988 operators will continue to serve LGBTQ+ youth, ensuring they are connected with the resources they need when they're in crisis. The hate and callousness directed at our LGBTQ+ community from the federal government will not be tolerated in Pennsylvania.
Fucking Bullshit
Disgraceful.
RFK jr, a man with a laundry list of behavioral problems is running the HHS (including the CDC, NIH, FDA, CMS). If he wants to personally have cult-beliefs, that's on him – but we must not allow him to project his own pathological beliefs onto 345 million people of this country. This is not science.
I wondered the same!
It looks like the lead plaintiff must have tangible harm. This is morbid but are we far enough along yet to have actual harm done as a result of his actions or do we have to wait until people are sicker and dying?
The New Yorker…
Between RFK decimating the CDC, normalizing Ashli Babbitt & the umpteenth school shooting... I'm losing the will to post. #ReleaseTheEPSTEIN_Files
The injustice continues. A terrorist is now being honored by our military... My latest God I'm pissed!!! substack.com/@harrydunn/n...
hey hey rfk how many kids did you kill today
Two children were killed and seventeen people were injured in a shooting at Annunciation Catholic School. A Cracker Barrel logo change received far more scrutiny and attention than any fight against the epidemic of gun violence in this country. Our priorities remain idiotic.
Fuck her
I don't want to live in a country where 10-year-olds are on the news talking about how their friends saved them by lying on top of them during a shooter incident... and got shot. Thanks, GOPNRA.
Fuck this absolute psychopath in his fucking stupid face. I wish him the worst. Fire him.
Hey MSM, ask RFK Jr to define 'inflammation'. Ask him to define 'mitochondria'. Ask him how, specifically, that he can tell how children have 'mitochondrial challenges'. Ask him what, specifically, about children's faces and body movement indicates inflammation. He won't know. He's making shit up.
It shouldn't be up to American children to save each other from getting shot. It's the job of American adults to stop shootings from happening in the first place. Ban assault weapons again now.
If someone tells you there's nothing we can do about gun violence beyond thoughts and prayers, remind them: —Gun laws in other countries have prevented mass shootings —More guns don't make us safer —A majority of Americans want gun reform We don't have to live like this.
Calling US Constitutional scholars: where in that esteemed document does it say: “I have the right to do anything I want. I’m the president of the United States.”
Ashley Babbit dishonored her service by committing insurrection against her country. While her death is absolutely tragic and I wish it hadn’t happened, the Air Force giving her honors is in itself a dishonor.
this picture of a mom shoes off sprinting to the Mpls school: www.startribune.com/minneapolis-... By Richard Tsong-Taatarii for @startribune.com, which should be a go-to source for anyone following
It’s almost as if appointing an anti-vax lunatic with zero qualifications to oversee America’s health was a numbskull idea and everybody with a functioning brain knew it.
wtf is this nonsense? He thinks he can understand kid’s “mitochondrial challenges” just by looking at them? This is an insane person.
Putting a 10 year old on tv to talk about his friend being shot at school is a different level of diabolical.
Evil country
This is so embarrassing
FUTURE HISTORY TEACHERS: “It was 2025 and the nation looked ready to become a dictatorship. But thankfully at the last minute, the insane president had a sudden dissecting aortic aneurysm and died. He was replaced with a guy who was quickly defeated because everyone kept calling him ‘couch-fucker.’”
Let’s be clear: deporting Kilmar Abrego Garcia to Uganda makes no sense—it’s not his home country. Nothing about this process has been fair. ICE is targeting him with cruelty. This is the weaponization of government, not justice.
They never should have held him back. This is who we wanted, and I grieve the loss every day.
The fact that this administration is hell bent on punishing Kilmar Abrego Garcia while rewarding Ghislane Maxwell tells you all you need to know about their violent racism and misogyny.
We are at the pool at my parent’s 55 + community. A boomer neighbor of my boomer mother was just loudly proclaiming that parents have to send their kids to catholic school because of the terrible things happening in public school and I had to hold back from fighting her.
It’s all about sending a message. The raid is the message. It’s all about retribution. He is the retribution president. As with troops on our streets, it’s all about normalizing fascism. This is fascism. Fascism is here. Too many Americans are too “busy” to care. But it’s here.
You don’t say.
Please add about triple that minimum.
Classic Rock is rock music from the 60s/70s, not the 80s/90s. Thank you for coming to my TED talk.
Trump wants to get rid of mail-in ballots so he can intimidate voters with federal troops stationed at the polling stations. Hard to scare people who can just quietly mail in their votes. Protect mail-in voting at all cost.
I refuse to believe we are going to relitigate slavery. SLAVERY. It’s too much.
What's happening in Texas should scare the shit out of you.
Wow, a puppy killer is an asshole. Who could have seen this coming.
[writing the constitution] Benjamin Franklin: Write down "no dumb fucks as president" Alexander Hamilton: Stop saying that Benjamin Franklin: I'm tellin' you. You're gonna regret not writing that down
I fucking loathe this man.
It’s so dispiriting that the worst and least capable people in the world are just out there thriving.
He spends $200 MILLION of your💰on a ballroom and his family doesn’t deny making billions off his presidency. As you cheer for him caging brown ice cream men & kids, he invades DC to cover a child sex trafficking ring and trashes the constitution to cling to power. He laughs.
These are 10/10
Beto O’Rourke is such a decent, good soul. Every person should hear him speak in person. He’s an absolute treasure.
He is so, so good hearted and decent. Everyone should hear him speak in person. He is a treasure.
This makes me so fucking angry and disgusted. How are we letting this minority of deranged fucks take us back decades and ruin our lives.
NEW: In addition to her sex offender waiver, Ghislaine Maxwell has an “out” designation that would allow her to leave the facility for work assignments. Some work assignments for FPC Bryan inmates are at Texas A&M University which is just 6 miles away. My latest: open.substack.com/pub/muellers...
As the President federalizes law enforcement in Washington, DC, it sure would be nice to have a functioning Congress. But instead, the House of Representatives is in recess to avoid a presumably embarrassing vote about the President’s involvement in the Epstein affair.
aging well, unfortunately 👇
Or Coke Zero
Missouri Democratic lawmakers are in such a superminority that they don’t even need to show up for laws to be passed in this state. An even sadder statement? A piece of legislation can go from the House to the Senate to becoming a law on the Governor’s desk while never being signed by a woman.

Cutting off that $7600 a year. How will they survive.
What a creepy, evil, weird little man.
One of my favorite places on Earth!
Ken Paxton just filed a lawsuit to remove me from office. But this seat doesn’t belong to him or me — it belongs to the people. My message to Ken Paxton: Come and take it.
So, apparently, Christian Nationalists would rather a child be raped by Donald Trump at Epstein's mansion than get a free lunch at a public school. #priorities
Ken Paxton is the most corrupt Attorney General in Texas history. This malignant clown was impeached by his own party. He has ZERO credibility on issues of law and order. Pipe down.
Trump is threatening to bring in the National Guard to the nation's Capitol. He's already done it in LA. He is a fascist testing how to unleash his own Gestappo against Americans once people turn on him during the midterms and 2028 election. It's all right there in front of your eyes, folks.
Americans are relearning the lesson we learned during the Gilded Age of the late 1890s, when robber barons ran the government and the economy for their own benefit: Oligarchy is incompatible with the common good. I'm hopeful we'll respond with a new progressive movement.
This is appalling. Make it stop.
The Department of Justice hired a former Jan. 6 defendant who was caught on tape urging rioters to "kill" police. The department calls him a "valued member" of the administration.
Living a moral life in an age of bullies requires collective action; it cannot be done alone. Each of us must organize and participate in a vast network of moral resistance. From this solidarity we will grow stronger. This is what our current moment requires.
“Are you abandoning your jobs?” 🔥 🔥 TEXAS DEM REP. ANN JOHNSON: “Yeah no — abandoning your job is going to Cancun in the middle of a deadly freeze…” A+ answer from Rep. Johnson here. @texasdemocrats.bsky.social
Mine improved once I stopped nursing at 16 months. Sleep also helps, which you will have again, I promise.
Stop interviewing this ghoul. He is just a jackass sound bite generator and the world will be much better off when he has his eventual massive heart attack.
Democratic politicians everywhere need to understand something: the massive support you're seeing right now for Texas House Democrats would be the support you'd easily get, too, if you were willing to fight back aggressively instead of navel-gazing and talking about "norms."
This is perhaps the worst part of all of this. Like all parents, I want my child to grow old and have the happiest life, and this disgusting human stain is putting it at risk all to appease the worms in his Swiss cheese brain.It feels so overwhelming and dark.
I love vacation, but I loathe getting there.
Literally experiencing this very thing right now. Too real.
This is real: President Trump is standing on the roof of the White House briefing room right now and no one knows why
Not surprised to see Aileen Cannon sealing all evidence regarding the orange felon’s fake assassination attempt involving Ryan Routh since she’s yet another criminal who was installed to help cover up for the orange felon just like Pam Bondi has done with the Epstein files.
