If you're 60, 69.1% of all job growth since your birth occurred under Democratic administrations. If you're 45, that number is 74.7%. If you're under 28, the number is 100%. Happy Labor Day.
A history that would qualify me for a cabinet position. Ha! My family looks like a Benetton Flag. I miss my husband. Grieving my husband and my country simultaneously is what hell must be like.

Back when Donald was a failure in real estate, he was famous for not paying his contractors. He would come up with fictional fault in their work as an excuse not to pay them. Now, this unscrupulous cretin is short-changing the National Guard. www.rawstory.com/trump-infuri...
BREAKING: Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson defies President Trump by leading a "no troops in Chicago!"
Pretty sure I knew you back in the day.

What Jamelle said
I’ll have to source check my buns off before screaming ‘YES!’
What happened to that guy?
I'm just gonna flip on some corporate media really quick... ABC: ads CNN: ads Back to CNN: Trump's Chicago "immigration enforcement" MSNBC: Protests in Chicago Back to ABC: A "federal judge getting in the way of Trump's immigration crackdown" Back to CNN: Weekend travel Nothing about Trump MIA
No candidate interviewing for medical school who, upon expressing RFK jr's views, would ever be accepted. They'd be laughed right out of the room. And yet this man runs the HHS – including the CDC, NIH, ACF, CMS, HRSA, and SAMHSA? WTAF?! Remove RFK jr for dereliction of duty. Immediately.
NEW: Since corporate media won't call for Trump's resignation, I will. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/trump-must...
ABC News is still calling RFK Jr. a “vaccine skeptic.” The dude was one of the most prominent anti-vaccine activists for decades. There’s video of him in 2023 saying that there’s no vaccine which is safe and effective. You can call him an anti-vaccine activist!
There’s a special place in hell for morons who get millions of people killed.

I am thankful to live on Tohono O’odham land, but today my greatest thanks & respect goes to the Miccosukee tribe for shutting down Alligator Alcatraz. The photo (by Joe Raedle) is of Betty Osceola, a member of the Miccosukee Tribe of Indians of Florida.
Is this great or what?
"Nobody wants to be a cop [in DC]. They were abused. They were spit on." "When you when you say they were abused and spit on, I'm assuming you're talking about January 6th, correct?" "All you guys want to do was bring up J6 about the answer to everything."
Don’t care
A must for reposting.
People, please stop ruining my "he could be dead" party. Sure maybe JD can control a cult while being controlled by an in-fighting committee of trillionaire shadow POTUS bros. I don't think so. But even so, he'll still be very dead. Dead is good. We have to find joy where we can.
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
This is as disgusting and disturbing as it gets. The ultimate ugly truth.
And they have cut funding for suicide hotlines & mental health. I guess if it’s not reported or treated it’s no problem. WTF
I know. The damage is done and until people stop relying on it, people will die.
Just close the darn thing already. It would be better to have no CDC at all and rely on international data than being fed lies, propaganda and conspiracy theories.
I am teaming yours up with this one and sending them out. Join me.
Do not stop sharing and reposting
That’s 25th Amendment worthy right there, all by itself.
America doesn't have a president. I don't know what the hell it is, but it sure as fuck isn't a president.
Plump's fucking bad shit crazy

Why do you appreciate unions? I’ll start: Weekends off Paid vacations Work breaks Sick leave Paid holidays No child labor Safer working conditions Health care and retirement benefits
Hilarious
No matter what @MarshaBlackburn keeps saying, it’s not criminals they’re targeting. www.cnn.com/2025/08/30/u...
I’m going to say this louder this time: if you are lying about having a high-risk condition to get a Covid vaccine, all good, do what you want to do BUT show some actual goddamn respect for people who *actually* have that condition and start masking.
I’m official
It’s probably the smell.The rotting is spilling out his pores
Trump is again threatening Chicago with a takeover on social media. We will again say those who trade liberty for the illusion of temporary safety deserve neither. We are not, and will not become, a military state. Remember freedom is something they can never take away, no matter what they tell you!
What a ridiculous person.
SOON.
And I am the world's foremost astrophysicist ballerina who invented the piano, aspirin, and appetizers.
My reporting uncovered the existence of DoJ training videos instructing FBI personnel on how to flag Trump’s name in the Epstein files. I’m suing to get the videos under FOIA. substack.com/@muellershew...
CHICAGO…
Why? Goddamit. WHY? Somebody fucking tell me.
you just know somebody’s being called by their full name right now
everyone pray really hard and make him die faster
I repeat once again, bribe for hire Pam Bondi is a criminal who was hired to cover up the Epstein files. She was never going to release anything to the public because her job was to hide serious crimes committed by the piece of shit who she takes illegal bribes from.
Sadly not funny...
Citizens United. Presidential immunity.
Thank you Dr.Keegan
I’ve been a doc for 30 years. I got this bag 30 years ago and it’s been my doctor’s bag ever since. I’m grateful to be in this job which I love so much and through which I can help people navigate health issues and thrive. As I head out now to do another housecall, I say “Thank you, Bag!”
If prayer really worked, I would have woken up to an enormous headline this morning.
I hope people realize how absolutely fucked this situation is. This isn’t normal. People are resigning all over the place because the government is mishandling our data, ruining our public health services, and generally making Americans less safe.
someone should put together a "kennedy death count" for everyone who dies of a preventable disease and just plaster it everywhere www.statnews.com/2025/08/28/c...
Hey Robert F. Kennedy, Jr, Nancy Mace, and anyone else using he victims of the Minneapolis shooting to push your political agenda of hate, Go F- yourselves! I am pretty sure Jesus is not on your side on this one, sinners. I stand with Senator Tina Smith! www.thedailybeast.com/minnesota-se...
there is no question in my mind that rfk jr is the most dangerous person in this administration and that his eugenicist ideology threatens the lives of millions of people www.advocate.com/politics/dem...
The CDC is gutting a program that monitors foodborne illnesses. The program will now only track infections caused by two pathogens, rather than eight. Hello? How does this “Make America Healthy Again”?
“Do you guys feel bad about what you’re doing? Don’t you f*cking hate yourselves?”
Marc Elias’ Democracy Docket has quietly become a pro-democracy media force, expanding its newsroom to 20 staffers as it surpasses 50,000 paid subscribers. Details in @status.news: www.status.news/p/democracy-...
Everyday is like marinating oneself in sewage.
Abbe Lowell, a veteran Washington litigator, now specializes in defending individuals targeted by the Trump administration, marking a shift from his past work for Donald Trump’s family. Lowell's newest client Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook solidifies his role as a key legal opponent.
You think we weren’t prepared for the last pandemic ….
If RFK jr would stand up at ANY medical conference and spouts his pseudoscience-cult BS, he would be laughed off stage. Where TF are these same physicians now? Every single doctor in the country must take a stand against this guy.
Donald Trump recently said that he has “the right” to do anything he wants—not unlike the antagonistic Homelander of the TV show "The Boys"—and his followers are determined to prove him right. www.theatlantic.com/newsletters/...

Quigley: Trump acts like a tough guy when it comes to going after some undocumented kid, but when he comes up against someone tougher than him, this president is a wimp.
Must read - Powerful warning to the nation as @drdemetre.bsky.social resigns as Director of the National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases and posts this post on X. Well done, Sir! 🔥💪 “My resignation letter from CDC. Dear Dr. Houry, 1/x
As we all know, the United States is the only country on the planet where these drugs exist. It definitely has to be the drugs that we alone use. Can’t be something else.
Tempting to ask why in less than 24 hours we know more about the Minneapolis school shooter than the "Earwojima" assassin, in Butler PA, a year ago.
I just saw a clip of Gov. Abbott...smiling and nodding in agreement as RFK Jr. justified his gutting of the CDC. I was reminded of just how glad I am he has to sit in that f*cking wheelchair all Goddamned day. (Don't tell me, "You're better than that, Jack." No...I am not. That's exactly who I am.)
i find this image so fascinating. it is both a literal example of authoritarianism but also a second-hand reproduction of the aesthetics of other authoritarian states. it's like a simulacra of authoritarianism whose purpose is to attempt to make the simulacra real.
#USDemocracy Trump’s little trick with the Smithsonian got us talking about racial injustice and systemic racism again, and that’s a good thing, we need to talk about it. Minneapolis has us talking about gun regulation again, that’s important. But SHOW US THE EPSTEIN FILES.
🚨Now in D.C. 🚨 “Hey hey, ho ho, millionaires have got to go!”
BREAKING: Bernie Sanders just demanded a special Senate committee hearing on the crisis at the CDC, making RFK Jr testify under oath on the disaster he's created. Go Bernie!
He's gonna make kids go to work camps because he can atmospherically deduce chakra misalignment.
I don’t take this recommendation lightly, but here it is. We need a healthcare strike. Every doctor, nurse, and allied health worker needs to strike until RFK and Marty Makary get the fuck out of government. Patients will suffer in the short term, but not as much as they would in the long term.
Angus: I’m saying we need to start building progressive media that people actually listen to. I’ll give you an example: MeidasTouch. Wherever I go in Canada, working-class people listen to MeidasTouch because they talk about what’s happening in a practical way. They give facts.
Multiple CDC leaders have resigned in the wake of layoffs and a shooting at the agency’s headquarters this month.
As stories of this administration's cruelty grow in frequency and severity, I can't help but wonder what event is going to ignite the flame of revolution that is currently simmering in this country. It's no longer a matter of if, but of when. Prepare accordingly. #Resist
Just signed up for a Covid vaccine and apparently now CVS doesn’t even let you get one unless you have a preexisting condition due to the new CDC guidelines. Wow.
Outside the CDC, people are chanting “USA, not RFK.” They are fed up with having one unqualified person dictate the nation’s health. #USANotRFK
I’d like to solve this puzzle
Thank you Cindy Mccaine.
CINDY MCCAIN: “The desperation is overwhelming.”
Thoughts and prayers and lowered flags don’t cut it. It’s time for Congress to do more to stop senseless mass shootings.
Oh no! Hope she doesn’t have a stroke.
Hi, immunologist here: (a scientist who studies immune & inflammatory processes) RFK Jr is talking absolute bullshit when he says he can “see in kids faces that they have inflammation” That’s NOT how immunology works. He is an anti-science profiteer. Start calling him such.
