He won’t let the press anywhere near him. This is getting weirder and weirder.
Thousands of Hurricane Helene victims are being evicted — less than a year after being displaced… And now, as FEMA crumbles, imagine what *future* victims of ecological disasters will have to endure
News in this piece: 1) JB Pritzker's health officials are exploring the possibility of buying Covid vaccines in bulk to distribute to constituents 2) Mass Gov Maura Healey is leading a coalition of mostly blue states that could coordinate purchasing of pediatric vaccines Read all about this here:
HAPPENING NOW: Judge Sparkle Sooknanan holds an emergency hearing as the Trump admin is reportedly trying—imminently—to deport hundreds of Guatemalan children without required process or access to representation. www.courtlistener.com/docket/71240...
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."
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.

Trump is attempting to use individual tax filings for immigration enforcement. This isn't just an attack on immigrants, it's an attack on all of us. If he succeeds, your private information could be next. I’m standing with Inclusive Action for our City to stop this illegal abuse of power.
Following a mass shooting in Minnesota, Rep. Tom Emmer (R-MN) insisted he couldn't remember why he opposed a bill to increase school safety.
Frivolous de santis
A judge dismissed the case, finding no probable cause after Florida police arrested a man as part of Ron DeSantis’ crackdown over rainbow chalk ark memorializing the victims of the Pulse nightclub shooting in Orlando. More: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...
U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement arrested John Shin, who has played with the Utah Symphony and Ballet West. The Department of Homeland Security cited his 2019 DUI conviction as the reason.
After senators were blocked from Gaza, CAIR says Congress can’t look away.
lol at them sitting at a kitchen table
The President of Portugal Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa called the orange felon a Russian asset in a live televised speech. Well done, this is how you do it. 👏
How many billionaire boomers do we have ?
Some churches in America have turned into incubators of hate, and have built a pipeline to government that empowers white nationalists, extremists, misogynists, anti-Black/Brown and gay individuals; even pedophiles who are now in power…………
Our news media are so broken. There's a way to challenge someone in an interview without looking like you're the press secretary for the other side. ABC's Martha Raddatz badly misses the mark. "Why fight with the president?" she asks.
SIGNS OF FASCISM 🪧
California’s homelessness growth rate last year was lower than 40 other states, including Texas and Florida. The work doesn’t stop here. With our new SAFE Task Force, we’re going to bring it down even further to ensure that everyone has a safe place to call home.
THIS IS HAPPENING HUNDREDS/THOUSANDS OF TIMES A DAY to innocent honest Americans being racially profiled by Putin/Trump/Miller/GOP white nationalist, racist, fascist militant ICE secret police MAGA NAZIS. Oppression of ANYONE by pedo-Trump is unacceptable and MUST STOP! DEFEND FREEDOM USA - RESIST!
😅
Melania has a contract to negotiate as a hooker. Hillary is married. The difference is OBVIOUS.
If we want to stop gun violence in America, we need to get politicians to care less about donations from the NRA or being re-elected And care more about protecting children
@nealkatyal.bsky.social: “You’ve got the president who's imposed the largest tax increase on American consumers since 1993 … and he did it without Congress saying one word. That is not our constitutional structure.”
They’re totally going to do this.
“Actual issues that impact our real lives” In Chattanooga, Candidate for Governor Jerri Green (D) asks if folks care about rising grocery prices (YES), women’s rights (YES), or trans athletes (NO) @marshablackburn runs on it, but we’ve had 0 trans athlete issues in Tennessee
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
AP: “When Trump awarded a contract for $1.2 billion for 🇺🇸’s largest immigration detention complex, it handed it to Acquisition Logistics LLC, a small biz with no experience… its address a modest home in suburban Virginia.”🤔 Golden Age of Corruption. apnews.com/article/trum...
Marc is absolutely right. We have to be diligent and stop this fascist dictator.
Aliso Viejo protest, August 30th, 2025. Hosted by @indivisibleca40.bsky.social & AV Tesla Takedown.
“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.
Looks like he is stealing the orange off America's sociopath.
On MSNBC at 6:50 pm to discuss the horrifying mass shooting in Minnesota on Wednesday Fletcher Merkel, an 8 year-old child, and Harper Moyksi, a 10 year-old child, were murdered 18 others, including 15 other children, were injured Countless children left traumatized for life.
Jones: I want to bring theology into this because you have all these people that want to give thoughts and prayers. But I was a minister, and that is a form of theological malpractice—when you pray for something you have the power to change.
The Portuguese President said Trump is a Russian asset. It is so obvious Trump is a traitor.

Isn't this mortgage fraud? Isn't that what they are accusing others of doing?
Who feeds this stuff to him? He sure ain't coming up with this on his own.
Here he goes.
This is criminal
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.
We should all follow!
She truly is “Brain dead”. What a sick individual…. www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...
So weird that their own father (jr.) isn't with them for the "golf" outing.
I really hope this becomes the black eye it deserves to be www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
I just now searched NY Times for info on Trump's illness or bruised hand or health concerns - nothing came up. They spent weeks covering Biden's age after the debate. Their bias is quite stunning.
“We do not want to see tanks in our streets. “We do not want to see families ripped apart. We do not want grandmothers thrown into the back of unmarked vans. We don’t want to see homeless Chicagoans harassed or disappeared by federal agents." @wttw.bsky.social
Trump is a filthy pig. He and Netanyahu are blood brothers under the skin. Trump Administration Bars Palestinian Officials From U.N. Meeting in New York www.nytimes.com/2025/08/29/u...
NEW: my office has received disturbing whistleblower reports that the Trump administration plans to separate 700 children from their families, lawyers, and support systems. Disappearing vulnerable children beyond the reach of American law and oversight is beyond depravity.
🚨 Dallas, TX: ICE kidnapping outside of a courtroom. 1/2 TX govt display of “family values.”
Yikes, JD Vance better hope JD Vance doesn’t hear about this!
'She's already navigating a bone marrow transplant for her son, and now has to worry about whether her daughter can still get free lunches at school.' Moms with special needs kids living on fixed incomes are about to get screwed over by the Trump/GOP SNAP cuts. abc11.com/post/mom-spe...
“For the second time in less than a month, the Justice Department abruptly dropped charges against a client represented by Brad Bondi, the brother of U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi.” Must be nice! abcnews.go.com/US/doj-drops...
I endorse donating to Innovation Law Lab. I’ve worked with them a number of times over the years, they’re legit.
Stephen Manning, this guy’s lawyer, is one of the best in the country. It’s very good news that he’s taken this case.
People will die from lack of access to healthcare due to cuts and increases to premiums, people will have permanent PTSD from witnessing the cruelty and abuse towards immigrants and the continued mass shootings. People will suffer because of this Administration. Elections have consequences for ALL.💔

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...
They’re detaining wildfire fighters while on the job. Insanity.
As we resist Trump’s tyranny, America gains solidarity. As we gain solidarity, we feel more courageous. As we feel courageous and stand up to Trump, we weaken him and his regime. As we weaken Trump and his regime, we have less to fear.
Image caring more about stopping a memorial for people killed in a mass shooting than stopping mass shootings. #Priorities
🚨 🚨 🚨 Elgin, Illinois. Has Governor Pritzker seen this?! 1/2
Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson stating what's obvious to all *decent* people.
I stand with Chicago. I stand with Mayor Johnson. 🚨 NEW: Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson just signed an executive order to resist Trump’s federal invasion and occupation of the city. Details in 🧵
Who is out the door at 8 am to golf?
A double?
Better cities are possible, and getting there involves subtracting bad stuff (e.g. cars, parking spots) as much as adding good stuff (e.g. frequent/reliable public transit, protected active transit, parks). Scarce bad stuff + abundant good stuff. Both, at the same time.
1/blockbuster decision on Trump tariffs. Regardless of what happens at the Supreme Court, stretching national security laws to their limit, Trump has put the cornerstone of US coercion at risk. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...
The two countries seem to be swapping places. Temporarily at least, the role of the Western hemisphere’s democratic adult has moved south. The trial of Jair Bolsonaro indicates why
Stephen King says it all...
There’s a word for that: corruption.
Republicans will never stand up to Trump. People who voted for Trump but hate his autocratic actions need to realize that continuing to vote for Republicans for Congress is hurting the country. If they are true patriots they must abandon them. Trump's policies are killing the country we love.
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.
Senator Bernie Sanders ( @sanders.senate.gov) pens New York Times op-ed calling for RFK Jr. to resign: "Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the secretary of health and human services, is endangering the health of the American people now and into the future. He must resign." www.nytimes.com/2025/08/30/o...
You watch as a child sobs for his mother—while masked agents of the state prepare to drag her away. ICE: “I don’t have any choice… [we’re just following orders].” The coward’s refrain. The excuse of weak, spineless men—echoed by every tool of tyranny throughout history.
Praying priest begs agents to stop deportation vans
Robert de Niro “Shame on those Republicans who didn’t have the balls to go after him. What do they tell their kids? What do they tell their grandkids when history books record what their role was, what they did, and that they allowed him to do this?”
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...
Bernie Sanders writes today: “Secretary Kennedy is putting Americans’ lives in danger, and he must resign. In his place, President Trump must listen to doctors and scientists and nominate a health secretary and a C.D.C. director who will protect the health and well-being of the American people”
Oh man… this is hysterical. Canada is giving Gavin Newsom a free plane? 😂😅🤣

At some point in the not too distant future the conventional wisdom will be that this was a period where the US focused on dumb shit while China took the lead in multiple domains
"January 6 survivor and former MPD Officer Michael Fanone launches a campaign demanding that federal officers remove their masks, advocating for transparency." Check out our new D.C. campaign demanding federal agents take off their mask! @ofthebraveusa.bsky.social www.wusa9.com/article/news...
This man just renewed his immigration papers in court and ICE rips him away from his screaming children. This is happening with our taxpayer money.
Just watched ICE pull a guy out a car at 16th and Park.
The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.
A Texas Republican lawmaker who last week blocked Democrats’ effort to filibuster the state’s gerrymander made disturbing comments at a 2022 legislative hearing — suggesting a way to deal with immigrants might be: “shoot, shovel and shut up.” www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
The Trump administration is reportedly continuing its attack on immigrant minors by preparing to send 600 unaccompanied children to Guatemala, in violation of legal safeguards. Vulnerable children deserve protection — not to be disappeared to places they fled, alone and without due process.
Israel has become a fascist state and mainstream American Jewish organizations have enabled it. The lies told every day by Netanyahu, the IDF, and the Israeli government writ large contravene every possible Jewish value. I really do not understand how Jews ignoring this will live with themselves.
