Your vote is your voice. In Colorado, mail-in voting is safe, secure & embraced by Democrats & Republicans alike. I won’t back down from protecting our elections. We are not a free country unless every eligible voter has the right to vote. #copolitics

Today’s court ruling is what we’ve been warning about for months: Trump is unlawfully using the military to terrorize Americans, including kids and hardworking immigrants — many of whom have contributed to this country and are part of American families.
This is Parker, she was shot in the head in Los Angeles for protesting ICE kidnappings and ethnic cleansing. She recovered and is now back to protesting because in times of fascism nobody can afford to do nothing. “We need everybody” “I call for revolution, it starts here” #3E
#LaborDay is more than a day off. Today, we celebrate the hard work and dedication of workers everywhere — especially those who are fighting for better working conditions, equal pay, and workers’ rights.
If you enjoy… Weekends Safe working conditions Retirement benefits Paid vacations Breaks at work Sick leave Paid holidays … then you’re part of the labor movement. Happy Labor Day.
The agency has been in turmoil the moment RFK Jr was nominated.
While billionaires convert the government into their private slush fund, we’re coming together to demand a country that puts workers first. #LaborDay2025
Today's a good day to learn Colbert found a new job. Hope it's a good one for everybody! #HappyLaborDay
Trump and his greedhead cronies may get a big surprise in spite of their efforts to rig the 2026 election. They could find themselves swamped by a blue wave. Americans are wising up to the fact that Trump is turning the American dream into a nightmare.
One thing about never-Trump Republicans, during Trump II particularly: They understand that the world they knew is dead. They have no investment in either reviving the former GOP (because they understand it's impossible) or maintaining the pre-2016 Democratic Party (because it's not their party).
The Rules committee is — finally — scheduled to reconvene next week. For those unfamiliar with the committee, a few highlights below . . . ⬇️⬇️⬇️
As we enjoy this beautiful Labor Day weekend, I am immensely grateful to have earned the endorsement of @cwaunion.bsky.social district 1, a union of more than 25,000 NYC workers who fight every single day for dignity on the job and economic justice for all working people.
Eenie weenie chili beanie...the spirits are about to speak!
The vice president spoke about President Donald Trump's health amid speculation over his well-being.
“Well, I’ve gotten a lot of good on-the-job training in the last 200 days," meaning he has been on vacation.
"She did not die defending the Constitution. She died trying to overturn it. She was not protecting lives at a gate in Iraq; she was forcing her way through windows in the Capitol to stop the peaceful transfer of power." New from @markhertling.bsky.social:
Jokes aside, if Biden was AWOL for four days and had nothing on his sked for a holiday weekend: -CNN would permanently show a running clock on the last time Biden was seen in public -Alex Thompson would publish multiple stories a day on Axios -Chris Cillizza would crank out 56 "But His Age" stories
Always the same routine. Mass killing leads to push for gun reform leads to NRA and so-called 2nd amendment crazies foaming at the mouth leads to nothing. Keep your insincere thoughts and prayers. Change and enforce common sense laws.
Missiouri Republican Rep. MarkAlford to his angry constituents: "If you didn't want to hear my lies, why did you come here?"
Massive walkout underway at CDC. RFK jr. must resign so that we can be safe.
She's no different than any other unwanted alien. Have her dragged away in cuffs back to where she belongs.
Where is Trump’s attention to this matter?
Donald Trump’s attempts to take control of the Federal Reserve will weaken our economy and raise costs for Americans.
Why would anyone in their right mind invite fascists to overthrow their State? Vance is as addled as FOTUS.
Republicans are trying to redraw congressional district lines to keep their grip on Congress in the midterms and beyond. Voters should pick their politicians, not the other way around. Get involved with the @democraticredistricting.com as they fight back: bit.ly/3HJ1ayW
Who are the cowardly thugs wearing masks and toting automatic weapons?
How is that campaign for a Nobel Peace Prize going for ya Donald? Since being welcomed with literal open arms by Trump in Alaska Putin has escalated the war in Ukraine to the highest levels yet. Russia is even planning a “March to Paris” Trump did this. Ukraine’s blood is on his hands #ProudBlue

Not all heroes throw subs. But some do. @monacharen.bsky.social celebrates signs of defiance against Trump: www.thebulwark.com/p/the-sub-he...
ANGRY @jvl.bsky.social took to @thebulwark.com today: "Trump is waging war against the American government. When he’s done, he’ll use his government to wage war against Americans." www.thebulwark.com/p/the-cdc-th...
Right now, in 2025, we all have an opportunity to honor their legacy by defending our democracy like our lives depend on it. Because they do. (2/2)
Since February 2024, California Highway Patrol’s partnership with Oakland has lead to: ✔️ 73 felony arrests ✔️ 420 misdemeanor arrests ✔️ 1,528 DUI arrests ✔️ 4,257 stolen vehicles recovered ✔️ 247 firearms seized
When the state and local communities work together strategically, public safety improves. While the Trump Administration undermines cities, California is partnering with them — and delivering real results.
Isn't this the same talking head who told democrats to play dead?
If the Peter Principle was the reason, the entire cabinet should be gone by now.
Round up the Jan 6 Insurrections n death penalty for them! #arresttrump
Neither. FOTUS secured his escape route with his palace-in-the-air before he is hauled away for high crimes and misdemeanors in 2026.
Sending military troops to police civilians undermines public trust, puts soldiers in legal and ethical jeopardy, and puts all of us at risk. If you’ve ever served in the military, join us and @commondefense.bsky.social to send a message to the Defense Department: No troops in our communities.
U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent says frozen Russian assets shouldn’t be immediately confiscated, calling them a negotiation tool with Putin. The question remains: who gave Bessent the authority to bargain with assets meant for Ukraine’s recovery?
Jordy: I call it the leaky fascist faucet. You have CEOs giving Trump gold, then it's let's do a little gerrymandering, let's send the National Guard into this one city, and the next. And then? It'll be: We need to deploy the military during elections to make sure no "election fraud" is happening.
There is no fool like an old fool. Please shut up and sit down, Cuomo, you're no longer relevant or wanted.
Meiselas: Stop both-sidesing it, media. Stop trying to sow division within the Democratic Party when we literally have military invasions into American cities, aided and abetted by red state governors, who, again, are the takers who wouldn't exist without the blue states
President Trump's use of military troops to go after immigrant communities, people of color, and people protesting the government is unjustified, dangerous, and puts our rights at high risk of being violated.
Revolutions are led by the people, which it is, BTW.
Check with any middle school student for the definition of socialism. Or look it up in your Funk & Wagnalls.

A whistleblower complaint says that the personal data of over 300 million Americans was copied to a private cloud account to allow access by members of the Department of Government Efficiency team.

Let's face it, Trump is very ill. Everyone in DC knows it. JD Vance is busy plotting a takeover before Trump kicks the bucket. @stuartpstevens.bsky.social @therickwilson.bsky.social & @joetrippi.bsky.social will pull back the curtain on what Vance is up to: Watch: open.substack.com/live-stream/...
A few billionaires want you to believe that if you make the ultra-wealthy pay their fair share in taxes, they’ll leave. That’s nonsense. @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social’s policies to make New York City safer and more affordable for working people would benefit everyone.
"If we want to protect children, we should be fighting for privacy laws, protecting encryption, and learning from Bluesky's model, where they allow third party algorithmic feeds and moderation tools."
Another knee-bending sycophant without an original thought in her brainless head. #MichaelBennett won't be governor. #JohnHickenlooper needs a viable primary opponent.
"A lot of people say..." listen to us, we live in your head, nobody else understands or knows as much as you and us....
The new order being imposed on American industry doesn’t come from a vast authoritarian bureaucracy. It’s personal and arbitrary. A single so-called “strongman” is beginning to control everything. Some thoughts... https://robertreich.substack.com/p/whatss-fascist-capitalism-and-which
Just after SCOTUS granted it access to Social Security, DOGE uploaded a database containing the private information of hundreds of millions of Americans to an unsecure cloud. DOGE isn't fighting fraud — it's potentially exposing Americans to more of it. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/26/u...
Convicted Felon Trump thinks his ideas should be laws, like criminalizing the burning of the American flag. His problem: the Constitution & SCOTUS tell him otherwise. My latest on Trump’s EO and why he & MAGA are hypocrites when it comes to respecting the American flag. youtu.be/9tQHPx76ahM?...
Attempting to rig elections on his behalf. Turning the military on citizens. Toying with the idea of declaring martial law. Attacking political enemies and punishing those who speak out against his regime. If this were happening in another country, what would you call it?
Trump: "I'm willing to go to Chicago, but we have a governor who refuses to admit he has problems — huge problems. Baltimore, Wes Moore was telling me 'I want to walk with the president.' Well, I wanna walk with you too someday, but first you've got to clean up your crime."
The current White House occupant refuses to admit he has severe neurological, ambulatory, and felony problems.
"A lot of people..." live in his demented little head.
"Mr. President, do not come to Chicago. You are neither wanted here, nor needed here." Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker responds to President Trump's threats to send National Guard troops to Chicago.
Why Trump built a staff of incompetent sycophants My latest for The Guardian: https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2025/aug/25/trump-staff-incompetent-sycophants
All well and good. What is the succession plan? Identify, mentor, promote younger candidates. Get younger candidates elected. Get the geezers to relinquish their power; they are no longer relevant and declining by the minute. Look to AOC, Bernie, Mamdani for inspiration.
Dems won't win unless there is a viable succession plan that identifies younger candidates, mentors them, promotes them, and seizes the power from the geezers' cold, decrepit hands. Look to AOC, Bernie, Mamdani for inspiration. And then DO SOMETHING!
Dragging that right leg again yesterday.
"The enemies of a free society—the enemies of limited government and the rule of law, the opponents of political liberty and human equality—don’t sugarcoat what they’re doing. There’s surely no reason we should sugarcoat what we’re seeing."
Federal regulators have finalized safety standards for two dangerous products that many advocates say should never have been on the market in the first place: water beads and infant neck floats.
Believe RFK Jr when he says no one should be taking medical advice from him.
FauxNews is losing to Meidas Network. Check them out...you would be a welcome addition. meidasnews.com/news/we-have...
Wake up, DNC - what is the succession plan? Are the geezers who refuse to let go of power actively seeking out, mentoring, and promoting younger candidates? The "brand" can't be fixed. It needs to be reinvented. Look for inspiration from AOC, Bernie, Mamdani.
Another FauxNews poser seeking a job with DOD or Homeland Security.
Keep your puppies on leashes.
Please find a qualified neurologist and get this degenerating fascist an emergency exam.
"I don't want to be defense only. We want offense too" -- Trump says he wants to change the name of the Department of Defense back to the Department of War

Trump is threatening blue enclaves again, this time with federalized National Guard soldiers sent by red state governors. It’s part of a bogus effort to quell an imaginary crime wave. Why Trump’s threat could be a paper tiger, in today’s write-up. open.substack.com/pub/statusku...
It's a clear and present danger and a threat to the 2026 elections.

John Bolton: “The historical verdict on Trump will be devastating. It’s rare to see one person being so destructive. He’s more like a vandal warlord than a constructive president. That’s what history will judge him on very severely.”
Look at FOTUS' history of bankrupting everything he touches, including the US economy.
