Platner: No one cares that you pretend to be remorseful as you sell out to lobbyists. Symbolic opposition does not reopen hospitals. Weak condemnations do not bring back Roe V Wade. Maine deserves better than Susan Collins.
Today.
Wow
Portland, Maine crowd as Democratic US Senate candidate Graham Platner takes the stage today.
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.
They already had the kids loaded onto the planes,hoping to leave without US citizens knowing . . .right on brand for this POS.
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.
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.
Trump and his Department of Veterans Affairs celebrate Labor Day after stripping VA employees of their ability to unionize — another step toward privatizing care for those who have served rollingstone.com/politics/pol...
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.
Assuming he's sick, l just pray he follows the medical advice of "one of the world's foremost voices, advocates and experts on public health," RFK Jr.
I think the post-Trump administration (fingers crossed) should consider the following argument: Trump did not respect the prior administration's appointments to non-partisan jobs. Therefore, the current administration should not respect Trump's appointees, either. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...
Troops in the streets and he thinks he’s going to get a Nobel, peace begins at home
This encapsulates the american voter, "I was not a fan of Mamdani at all, but as I got to know him more, I began to respect him and like him more,” said Shamsul Haque, the meeting’s organizer and a Bangladeshi American who spent 21 years in the department. People hating what they dont understand.
When our working families are strong, Minnesota is strong. That’s why we’ve established paid leave, expanded the right to collectively bargain, and why we’re investing in the projects creating the union jobs of the future. Happy Labor Day, Minnesota.
The White House posts that the US has now taken in $8 Trillion in tariff revenue so far. Preposterous insane lies on an hourly basis.
The National Guardners
Raise the minimum wage. It’s been $7.25/hr since 2009. Some states have voluntarily raised the minimum wage. Most red states have not. Workers should not have to work several jobs just to survive. WA is at $16.66/hr, CA at $16.50 #LaborDay www.paycor.com/resource-cen...?
You guys see where this is going? Right?
Congrats-enjoy every minute!

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...
"Donald Trump is a dictator – and we are further along the road of authoritarianism than people want to admit." Marc Elias
Why is the Draft Dodger-in-Chief trying to drag us into a war with Venezuela? The claim is that drug cartels are so out of control they’ve been designated an international terrorist organization, so we need to send warships. But we’re denying Venezuelan’s asylum claims who fled for their lives. 🤔
Unfuckingfathomable how evil they are.
I like the rebrand.
J.B. Pritzker is 100% right. Please listen to him, pay attention, and join us in speaking out against authoritarianism and to protect free and fair elections.
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.
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!
O'Keefe to Noem: "At least 20 people who signed this letter were current FEMA employees & they've been placed on administrative leave. Is it now the policy of DHS that anytime an employee puts their name on something criticizing you or POTUS, they should anticipate being put on leave or fired?"
He obviously knows where he’s going.
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."
That’s some sick mitochondria right there. And I’m not even a LAWYER!
Why do I blame Bill Cassidy for the destruction of the CDC and the NIH? Because he is a physician. He knew or should have known the danger that Kennedy poses to the U.S. and the globe. Kennedy has never hidden what he is—a predator, a fraud, an anti-science hack, and a gargantuan narcissist.
If I win the Powerball, my Presidential campaign starts tomorrow and my platform is: Nationalized healthcare, incl Free vaccines Scientific research $$$$ Every kid gets fed every day High speed rail everywhere The day after the Super Bowl is a national holiday. Hope I can count on your vote!
act accordingly indeed...
Why Isn't Donald Trump's Declining Health Being Covered by Corporate Media? Where are the op-eds & news programs calling for Trump's resignation due to his declining health, impaired abilities, & march towards fascism? Oh, yeah, "both sides" corporate journalism. open.substack.com/pub/thelefth...
This is exciting
Netflix co-founder and Democratic megadonor Reed Hastings has given $2 million to help California redraw its House maps in the latest indication of the campaign’s outsize stakes.
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.
Who voted for war with Venezuela?
Oh
RFK Jr. likes to claim that thimerosal in childhood vaccines causes autism spectrum disorder (ASD). So I wonder if he’d like to explain how the rates of ASD diagnoses in the U.S. have kept going up when thimerosal was removed from all childhood vaccines in 2001?
They're releasing the Epstein files?
More and more farms all over the country are collapsing and failing because of labor shortages. This is going to hit our shelves very soon. Not high prices. Absence of food.
He can pretend to be dead all he wants. I still want the Epstein files released.
What in the ever loving fuck is going on here
Banning books instead of guns is exactly what radicalized me.
In a national poll, 9 out of 10 American flags prefer Governor Gavin Christopher Newsom.
The very rich Peter Thiel is behind a lot of the destruction of pur democracy going on right now, and he thinks the rest of us little people are just in his way.
👇🏽🎯
We dead.
Business man, my arse!
BREAKING: Bernie Sanders has called for a special Senate committee hearing on the CDC crisis, demanding that RFK Jr. testify under oath about the disaster he’s created.
What could go wrong? The federal government plans to hire private companies to use artificial intelligence to determine whether patients would be covered for some procedures, like certain spine surgeries or steroid injections.
any body want to help me plan sneaking around and raising all the flags back up to full mast
Iowa Senator Joni Ernst is not seeking reelection in 2026: www.cnn.com/2025/08/29/p... Iowa swung hard to the right starting in 2016, but the 3 special elections that have happened in Iowa so far in 2025 have swung toward Dems by 22, 24, & 26 percentage points. Two seats have flipped blue.

Omg he screams it from a mile away.
If Mike Johnson doesn't set off every bell in your creep alarm, you need a major reset – cuz it's fuckin' broken.
I will never get over how a handful of tech bros set billions of dollars on fire to build a plagiarism machine that doesn't work and will destroy human society when they could have used a fraction of that money to fund a new golden age of creativity and knowledge.
the first dem to look right in the camera and say "i'm glad the fucker's dead" is going to win
The same people who villainize Dr. Anthony Fauci, an actual doctor with a speciality in immunology and research in virology, are praising RFK Jr who has never seen the inside of a lab.

Jain: We have a U.S. Attorney’s Office that is also facing a vacancy crisis. And that is at least partially because the predecessor to the current U.S. Attorney, Jeanine Pirro, was Ed Martin. He fired more than 20 prosecutors whose only “crime” was prosecuting violent January 6 insurrectionists.
BREAKING: A federal appeals court has ruled (rightly) that His Magasty's tariffs are illegal. Which is really cool until it gets to the Supreme Corpse, and they gently lick all the pus off his balls.
Trump admin is slashing FEMA’s disaster aid ahead of peak hurricane season...rolling back federal support...cutting staff...and shifting responsibilities to states. Emergency officials warn this jeopardizes readiness...and risks a repeat of Katrina-level failures. Standard Trump level incompetence.
‼️‼️
It’s time to take serious action at the State Capitol to address gun violence.

RFK Jr was not chosen to preside over US public health and science because he had any qualifications. He had a famous family name and Trump needed his endorsement and supporters. We saw it happen live in this call. That’s why we are here.
Maybe Red state governors are sending their national guard to DC because they’d be safer there picking up trash than patrolling their own murder capitals.
He’s trying to get her killed…
The whole world is uniting against the USA. share.google/dR5peMrqkSmo...
I’ll believe it when I see it. Schumer is sadly all talk. He must go along with Jeffries.
Agree 💯 with that statement.....
More or less universally a country seeking to limit foreigners studying in that country is a sign of a society, culture, great power in severe decline.
No notes
Oh, great. Trump's designated puppet at BLS has the warm endorsement of Arthur Laffer, an economist who (checks notes) has been wrong about essentially everything. www.wsj.com/opinion/e-j-...
Mike Johnson makes clear that when Congress returns next week he's going to work tirelessly to cover up the Epstein files
Are we no longer talking about the EPSTEIN FILES? EPSTEIN FILES? EPSTEIN FILES? EPSTEIN FILES? EPSTEIN FILES? EPSTEIN FILES? EPSTEIN FILES? EPSTEIN FILES? EPSTEIN FILES? EPSTEIN FILES? EPSTEIN FILES? EPSTEIN FILES? EPSTEIN FILES? EPSTEIN FILES? EPSTEIN FILES? EPSTEIN FILES? EPSTEIN FILES? Are we?
All of this was avoidable. Racism makes people stupid.
The American public must bring a class-action lawsuit against RFK jr immediately.
If RFK Jr. will not resign, he must be impeached and removed, for the sake of the nation's health and safety.
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.)

And Norway;-)
He has filled the most powerful vaccine advisory board at CDC with sycophants. He has placed a man who is opposed to COVID19 vaccines in charge of their approvals at FDA Their hands are tied, and they correctly refuse to “just follow orders”.
He is manipulating data and making absolutely horrific decisions without consulting some of the best experts in the world. They have no recourse. If you wish to rage at someone, may I suggest any Republican Senator. 2/3
Dear people who are saying that the CDC directors who quit yesterday should have “stayed and fought”, With all due respect, you do not grasp the magnitude of the problem of RFK Jr. He is asking them to do unethical and immoral things that will actively harm the people of the United States. 1/3
Remember! It happens now!
The cognitive dissonance required to be anti-abortion (“saving” babies) and anti-vaccine, risking children’s lives and health through exposure to vaccine-preventable diseases is staggering.
