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.
Let's figure out how they rigged the election before the midterms. He admitted it. How come bone spurs didn't stop him from playing on his school's basketball team and later tennis? #VoteBlue #TrumpisALyingRacistRapist Love British mystery series.

Most people will never understand this outfit because they have not read the book nor did they see the tv show.
Having been in Ireland for long stretches this year, it’s clear Irish see an engineered famine by an occupying army/nation as an echo of the 2 British-imposed famines that killed so many on their own land. They remember.
WHY???????????
I love close captioning.....

This #LaborDay, let’s remember that immigrants make up 20% of the workforce. If 20% of the workforce were deported, the country's GDP would decrease by 12% (-3 trillion). Hurting immigrants doesn't only hurt them. It hurts America. Is weakening America worth owning the libs? #OnYourSide
New, from me: America is no longer a functioning democracy. It is a competitive authoritarian system, hurtling rapidly toward authoritarianism. This was a hard piece to write but we can't move forward if we don’t acknowledge where we are. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/the-author...
Carol N in Santa Fe, NM! 🔥🔥🔥 Keep sending us you Labor Day protest pics to shout@thedangerousones.com
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...?
It’s not the immigrants. It’s the billionaires ruining our country. Stop buying into the divisionary tactics of the oligarchy. It’s time to take back our country and power of the people #LaborDay
.@velshi.com “Head in the sand”? Please. Part of the problem is limp news coverage that turns every Dem wobble into a five-alarm fire while treating GOP extremism as background noise. That’s what depresses our base.
It’s September! The leaves are falling, the air is chilled and Congress is back. Ok, let’s see the Epstein files, Mr Speaker.
Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem's claim that CBS News edited her interview to hide a criminal's MS-13 gang affiliation is incorrect. The full transcript shows she made the claim. CBS added an editor's note that Kilmar Abrego Garcia has not been charged with gang-related crimes.
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.
Heads up Chicago! While the National Guard is probably going to spend some time spreading mulch around federal buildings, there will be more armed kidnappers with badges than usual in town. These resources will be needed by someone.
This morning (9/1) at 8 AM feds pulled over a couple at 18th & Park NW. They smashed the window, dragged the husband out & arrested him. When a community member stopped to record they were grabbed & threatened w/ pepper spray by this piece of shit. @mayorbowser.bsky.social do you welcome this too?
An appeals court declared Trump’s tariffs illegal. For years, families carried the cost of higher prices on food, cars, and basics. This serves as a reminder that trade policy isn’t a tool for presidents to wield—it’s the law, and Congress makes it. www.npr.org/2025/08/29/n...
Happening Now — Washington DC: Pretty massive rally is forming at 14th and U NW.
Fun fact: Republicans know Trump provoked the coup attempt. Period. Republican House, illegitimate SCOTUS has ushered in a silent coup and the country has no recourse. Midterm elections will be stolen by Republicans, any court challenges will be ignored by Trump & backed by his Gestapo.
Disgusting and disgraceful which also describes the Trump Administration.

Gavin Newsom Slams GOP's Inaction On Guns In Wake Of Catholic School Shooting "We cannot even make it through the first week of school without mass shootings," the California governor posted online Wednesday. #MOG8 www.huffpost.com/entry/gavin-...
This message from Pope Leo XIV is about Trump and his immigration policies. It’s worth listening to even if you aren’t religious. He addresses the deeply moral issues of separating families and how it goes against Christianity. Even God agrees with Democrats.
On the same day the FDA restricted access to COVID vaccines, the CDC director was sacked and top CDC scientists are resigning. And it’s barely been two weeks since an antivax conspiracy theorist fired 180 bullets at CDC headquarters. None of this is making America healthier. What a disaster.
"Trump’s former FEMA chief opens up — and says administration is ‘delaying’ aid" Not surprising. Sec Puppy Killer is never in her office, too busy with cosplay 😡😡😡 l.smartnews.com/p-65KeqWXu/R...
Trump’s hypocrisy hits new high as this draft-dodging self proclaimed “war hero” — who called our fallen “suckers & losers” — salutes our military in a baseball cap while DEFUNDING VETERANS AFFAIRS!!! Read on below:
According to federal data, 13 of the top 20 cities in homicide rates have Republican governors. None of those cities are Chicago. 8 of the top 10 states in homicide rates are led by Republicans. None of those states are Illinois. And yet Trump is sending troops here.
Mass murders. Media, police, government want to call them "shootings" as if everyone shot lived. That is almost never true. They are murders.
ICE took 2 firefighters OFF THE FUCKING FIRE LINE!?
We pay bills online. We read our medical records online. We pay bills online. Many bank online. WHY ARE WE NOT VOTING ONLINE? Secure enough to do our taxes but not vote?
Already in the recycling bin. VOTE YES ON PROP 50
They keep calling mass shootings "school shootings" "theater shootings" "church shootings" as if no one died. They are MURDERS! The person doing it, if alive is charged with "murder" not shooting.
I, personally, would like to live in a country where we didn't have to just "deal with" children getting shot and killed at school.
Sen Patty Murray (D-WA): “If there are any adults left in the White House, it’s well past time they face reality… We cannot let RFK Jr. burn what’s left of the CDC and our other critical health agencies to the ground—he must be fired.”
Everyone watches Trump’s circus. Few see the man behind the curtain: Stephen Miller, the architect of America’s authoritarian future.👇 www.jackhopkinsnow.com
So he wants a Nobel Peace Prize? He’s starting a war against the citizens in his own country who didn’t vote for him and would never vote for him again. He claims he’s ended how many wars now? 7, 10, hundreds? Truth -Zero! The Person who stands up to remove him from power should win one!
“You don't have to burn books to destroy a culture. Just get people to stop reading them.” ~Ray Bradbury Keep reading, friends. 📚
Democrats are winning most of the special elections, with low turnout in this off year. #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles #Pinks
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.
Good morning Bluesky. "Government of any sort – including democracy – does not possess more wisdom or justice than its individual citizens, and that it is every citizen’s responsibility to avoid acquiescence."- Henry David Thoreau
There is only one political party responsible for gun violence in America. The political party that has done nothing to solve it. The political party that has blocked any efforts to solve it. The Republican Party.
BREAKING: Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey after Annunciation Catholic School shooting: “Don’t just say this is about thoughts and prayers right now. These kids were literally praying!” Stop paying for a f-cking minute and demand action by people and not just God.
Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024. This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500. Remember this before you order your next pumpkin spice latte.
MAGA: Republicans Once Again Enthusiastically Enable Domestic Terrorism www.youtube.com/live/wlzo5Ht...
REALLY? That's like saying if Ukrainian soldiers were at the front none of them would ever be killed. Maybe want to edit the statement?
This country will never be great as long as we continue to have mass murders in our churches and schools.
The doors were unlocked. No surveillance footage. Deposition in days.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣💙👏😎
Epstein friend said he wants to be a dictator.
Republicans lose their supermajority. Iowa is expected to be a safe red state. Trump won this Iowa district by 11 points. Now, the Democrats won it by 10. That’s a 21-point swing in red America.💙💙💙😎
You're spot on with the epstein distraction,and he's setting the stage to push the limits with deployment of troops! As long as the feckless repubtards let him continue,we're in for a long bumpy ride this country may never recover from! If dems take back congress the first order of business,IMPEACH
Of course they are, rules for thee and not for me. Texas is fine but California is a descent into tyranny. "It violates state law so they are trying to get around it by putting it on a ballot" Well yes. That's exactly how the law works in California.
Also known to DT as mental institutions. He doesn't have a big vocabulary.
Crisis averted. So... about those Epstein files...
Psaki: "If you have to keep telling people you aren’t a dictator, maybe your actions are getting a little dictator-y."
America💙A report, filed by the chief data officer for the Social Security Administration ,alleges that the actions by DOGE staffers is in violations of laws, rules, and regulations! Our data’s are exposed!! Must Arrest Elon Now😡 #DemVoice1 #DemsUnited #ProudBlue
it starts now with the republican gerrymandering and other firms if cheating. trump/GOP will also make sure there is widespread voter intimidation in Democratic areas. What is guaranteed is that in red states we'll never know the actual outcome, but only the GOP manipulated outcome
What can we do? Where is the pushback? Well, ICYMI, here is what it looks like. So I thought I would do something I rarely (if ever) do… share the whole damn thing. No snark. No spin. Just the whole speech. open.substack.com/pub/charlies...
First it was cops in surplus camo. Then military flyovers at ballgames. Now it’s National Guard in our streets. This is how fear politics works: normalize the police state until people clap for it. History shows us this playbook, from Rome to Germany to Chile, authoritarians always arrive
This is Ghislaine Maxwell's custody level. Not only is she not legally allowed to be at a minimum security prison bc of her Sexual Abuse charges but her Custody Level "OUT" means.... She can leave the prison for work assignments.
Because he thinks it would be better if he was a dictator.
I think he actually said, "Noble." He didn't even pronounce it correctly.
It will be up to We, the People to demand Justice Ketanji Brown is protected, by any means necessary. 🇺🇸
Stuart Stevens on National Guard deployment: "The murder rate of Jackson, Mississippi is 3 times that of D.C.... the whole thing is complete fraud"

Whew! Sen. Susan Collins should be “very concerned” She showed up as the main guest at a ribbon-cutting in Searsport, Maine. It backfired. The crowd was not happy to have her: “Shame. Shame. Shame.”
The thing about Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce's engagement is that the military is taking over Democratic cities.
#JoeWalsh did a good job summarizing the #Fascist Administration of DonaldTrump!

JB Pritzker is every bit the great American that Gavin Newsom is. They just have very different styles and I love both their approaches.
I applaud my AG for her effort, but I believe they will ignore the Court order. www.amny.com/news/ice-cou...
So are the political hats on the table!
We need all of our governors of blue states to stand up like Pritzker, Walz and Newsom!!!!
To be clear, you’re not allowed to wear or display political stuff at AFRH regardless of party.
Dang 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥@govpritzker.illinois.gov is absolutely right!!! Pay attention people!!! Trump wants to be a dictator!
Amazon’s plastic packaging waste alone could encircle the globe 500 times: We need to do better. Use less, buy less, waste less. AND THE THREE R’S REPAIR- REUSE - RECYCLE
Some are holding vests. It is VERY hot in D.C in the summer.
Preventing the illegal exchange of data within government is part of the reason that the ATO process exists. If DOGE plans on doing something illegal with that data, this would explain why DOGE felt the need to circumvent this process. In other words, they know their plans are against the law.
Problem: this plan is illegal under the Privacy Act of 1974, a law which prohibits sharing data in bulk across government agencies, and very specifically prohibits sharing Social Security data of exactly this kind. The law was meant to prevent exactly the national id system DOGE is trying to create.
