However evil you think this is, it’s worse: “The A.I. companies selected to oversee the program would have a strong financial incentive to deny claims. Medicare plans to pay them a share of the savings generated from rejections.”
Here's some good news: Catelin Drey won a special election this week to flip a seat blue in the Iowa Senate and break Republicans' supermajority.
Epstein survivor Sarah Ransome on Ghislaine Maxwell: “I have spent the last 17 years in my own prison for what she, Jeffrey, and all the co-conspirators did to me. I was raped three times a day. Ghislaine must die in prison.”
Remember how the Trump administration claimed that Kilmar Abrego Garcia had to be brought back to the United States to "face justice"? That it wasn't about the deportation case, they just HAD to prosecute him? They lied! The whole thing was a lie! And they don't care at all that you know that.
A couple of interesting things about the Ghislaine Maxwell/Todd Blanche audio recording: it's not one continuous recording. It's broken up into 7 parts on day one, and 4 parts on day two. Further, Todd Blanche says he spoke to Maxwell off the record for several minutes before the recording. 1/
I’ve seen so many people spreading the misinformation that PBS is shut down or is shutting down. The Corporation for Public Broadcasting has been shut down and PBS has been defunded. HOWEVER!!! PBS still exists. It is more important now than ever that you donate to PBS if you can.

Here's Andrew Cuomo strongly hinting that Trump is going to help him win the NYC mayoral election. Just last week, he denied any contact with Trump. Trump doesn't do favors for free. What would Cuomo give him in return? NYC is too smart to fall for this.
Imagine how much money one could make if they were to make nice with all the enemies of democracy and instead deploy USA’s military against its own citizens to feed the private prison industry. Trump gets a big cut. He’s part of something much bigger & more sinister. Wake up USA.
A message for the most “transparent Administration” in history: Release the Epstein files.
This administration loves negotiating on behalf of pedophiles & palling around with sex traffickers: Maxwell, Alexandrovich, Tate, Takke, Morris, Nader, Hageman, Holmberg, Hooper, RJ May. That's what you get when you elect Epstein's best pal. Where are you now, MAGA? Release the files.
Now that Donald Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” is law, 51,000 more people will die preventable deaths each year. Republicans voted to let thousands of people die so they could give billionaires government handouts.
Alex Padilla just made a point that I don’t think anyone else has made: Trump calling Abbott and asking him for 5 more Republican seats is no different than him calling the Georgia Secretary of State to ask for 11,000 more Republican votes.
A teenage 4channer was beat up by two 15 year olds in DC, which was spotted and quickly stopped by nearby police. He told his friends, the richest man in the world and the Vice President of the United States, that he was pummeled by a dozen adult Romanians. A week later, Trump federalized DC police.
DC statehood is now an imperative. No more dicking around. Next Dem majority, get it done immediately.
👀Face The Nation “Attacks on ICE agents are up 1,000%” Tony Gonzales (TX-R) Bullsh*t HOW do we know there is any increase (of any %) when their “data” is not presented with a “baseline” of assaults? ICE began 2003 ICE is safer than Policing If ICE assaults are☝️ What qualifies as “assault”? 🤷♀️🤷♂️
It's when you repudiate an extreme member of your political party. When B.Clinton was running for office, Sister Souljah publicly said black gang members should stop killing each other and kill white ppl instead. Clinton renounced her comments & his numbers rose substantially among centrists.

Another horrific series of press rights abuses tonight at hands of LAPD. Initial reports are 4 journalists injured (several bleeding), 3 cameras broken, 5 put in zip ties. All in defiance of state law, a judge's order, and chief's signed order. LAPD can't police itself. Maybe the judge will.

A government-sanctioned "truth arbiter" will soon arrive at CBS. Their role will be to ensure that journalists do not criticize this Administration or express views that conflict with its agenda. This is a betrayal—not just of journalistic independence, but of the public trust. 🧵

Head of NASA Sean Duffy intends to destroy a satellite that collects key data on carbon dioxide and plant health, by causing it to burn up in the atmosphere. The U.S. Dept of Agriculture and private agriculture firms use the data to forecast crop yield, drought conditions and more.
Federal law enforcement is being used to literally hunt down Texas Democrats in Illinois so Republicans can draw new electoral maps and disenfranchise millions of people. An extremely scary precedent is being set right now and Illinois is the first proving ground: www.axios.com/2025/08/07/f...
Article 1, Section 9 & 10 have been removed from the official Govt website on the US Constitution. Among numerous points: •Section 9 forbids suspending The Privilege of the Writ of Habeas Corpus •Section 10 forbids ex post facto laws This better be a joke. Ignoring these is full blow dictatorship

Over 90 pages of "Alligator Alcatraz" files disappeared as I was looking at them and reporting on the situation. Our public records requests are getting stonewalled. A slew of experts told me this all seems to be illegal. talkingpointsmemo.com/muckraker/th...
We can’t lose focus on what matters – right now, Republicans in Texas are trying to gerrymander district lines to unfairly win five seats in next year’s midterm elections. This is a power grab that undermines our democracy.
The American people shouldn't have to question the integrity of their elected officials. If we're to rebuild trust in government, we must ban the owning of individual stocks among all 3 branches of government. Your public servants should be concerned about you, not their own bottom lines.
Disgusting.
Taken literally, the nation’s top intelligence official announced — on a right-wing podcast — that my decision to stop posting on Twitter is evidence that I am not “innocent” and am therefore being reviewed by the DOJ, with the aim of holding me “accountable.” www.democracydocket.com/opinion/im-n...
No one should ever have to wonder if their senator or representative is making choices in Congress just to benefit their own wallet. There's a clear solution: ban Congressional stock trading.
I save all my cardboard paint swatches, because sometimes they change the name of the color on you.

A legal permanent resident researching cures for Lyme disease has been detained by immigration officials for over a week. He has reportedly been denied access to an attorney and his family has not been given a reason for his detention. We cannot become immune to this cruelty.
Does anyone remember when 45 was obsessed with Hope Hicks? Hicks accompanied him everywhere, often publicly holding hands with the married Lewandowski? Wanna bet Noem is his main interest now and the toady Lewandowski is their cover?
I think people are misinterpreting this wonky headline. The bombshell story CBS is reporting is that the Epstein jail tape the public got IS missing time and the FULL video exists. The FBI and DOJ have it. So when Bondi said the missing minute is normal, she lied. www.cbsnews.com/news/jeffrey...
We must say no to Emil Bove. Over 900 former DOJ officials say he’s unfit — accusing him of silencing career prosecutors and undermining court decisions. We need judges with independence and integrity, not loyalty to a single man.

My first reaction was someone was filming a mama duck and her babies at sunset and kept filming as the drama with the kid unfolded, but it could be anything I suppose.

Noticing a theme here.
It's time to tackle the housing crisis so many of us face. I've introduced two bills that will help us increase housing production, support redevelopment, lower costs, and preserve environmental protections so people in New Jersey can live safe and healthy lives.
DOJ whistleblower on the Abrego Garcia frame job. Must listen.
The camera did not go off... they are clearly still recording him. He says that all the time so the audience at home thinks he's being silenced.

People exploding this false messaging that I voted for a bill + funding that I quite literally voted NO on. The threat environment this morning is scary. Doesn’t help anyone. Drag me for the position if you disagree but don’t lie. It’s out of control. Saying I voted for this funding is false.
1. Trump says that the letter to Epstein is fake because the letter is "not the way I talk." Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said the letter is "not at all how he speaks or writes." JD Vance said the same thing. Does the letter sound like Trump? I investigated.

It really hasn't gotten enough attention that, several years before Alan Dershowitz won Jeffrey Epstein a get out of jail free plea deal by denigrating Epstein's victims, he allegedly joked about protecting Epstein by framing Bill Clinton for what Epstein had done. www.wsj.com/politics/tru...
That Cuomo would choose to live in Florida, of all places, says a lot about him and what he envisions for New York. Beat it, Cuomo.

Trump promised to cut prices on day one. Instead he increased them - on purpose.
MAGA will make sure he never has a moment's peace if he's brought back to the US. What a barbarous situation.
Trump admits to being in the Epstein files, experts believe he’s been actively scrubbing his name, evidenced by his request for the FBI to flag and isolate every mention of him in the case documents.: “They’ve been running these files, and so much of the things that we found were fake with me.”

Don't leave New Jersey behind. We have a robust economy and are mostly blue, minus the move-ins from Staten Island.
Don't forget,MCC also accidentally destroyed the footage of Epstein's first "suicide" attempt on July 23rd, 2019. In a crazy coincidence, the footage was permanently deleted from the prison's backup system due to a technical error. Whoops!
They’re laying the rhetorical groundwork for casting a wider detention net. If Stephen Miller gets his way, opposing ICE makes us all “insurrectionists.” We must reclaim the narrative before they make “terrorists” of us all. FIGHT BACK materially and rhetorically. 🙏🏻 @quadzillahikes.bsky.social
