Concern over low birth rates was what the theocracy in Margaret Atwood’s Handmaid’s Tale used to come to power.
Anyway, I’m glad to know the president is still technically alive so he can watch this tomorrow www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...
Trump on the cover of French magazine Le Point. Translation: “Man from Moscow” Le Point is a major French weekly news magazine. It is considered a center-right / conservative-leaning publication.
You can’t hide from us Donnie! We still want to see the EPSTEIN files
Today's a good day to learn Colbert found a new job. Hope it's a good one for everybody! #HappyLaborDay
I wish people would stop blaming COVID mitigation policies for the acceleration of right wing extremism, and instead acknowledge the fact that we endured a mass casualty and mass disabling event that was mismanaged by narcissistic authoritarians who shifted the blame to marginalized communities
“Get it all on record now. Get the films. Get the witnesses. Because somewhere down the road of history some bastard will get up and say that this never happened.” Dwight D. Eisenhower
Despite the AP framing, President Trump didn’t say anything. Someone operating the president’s Truth Social account typed out that statement. He’s still in hiding
Crime is literally lower than it has been in the entire life of every single non-senior-citizen American. If you are under age 65 you have never lived at a time with lower property crime rates, lower violent crime rates or lower homicide rates. Never.
This should be getting far more attention from the media, and it should be investigated as a hate crime. A 14-year-old Black teen was targeted, beaten, and dehumanized with racial slurs by white teens while people stood around cheering. 1/4

8/31/25: Massive music festival has erupted right yesterday in Washington D.C. against the Trump regime. Don't bother checking cable news... they're not showing it. Who's streets? Our streets!!
Remembering when the NYT went on a weeks-long bender covering a decades-old real estate deal the Clintons were involved in, in which they *lost money*.

VETS AGAINST TRUMP
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.
Blocks and blocks of Chicagoans marching against Trump’s fascism.
Something press pool could ask about
Americans rely on public transportation to go to work or school. But @malcolmkenyatta.bsky.social is walking from Philly to Harrisburg to protest PA State Republicans slashing SEPTA funds (Philly's mass transportation) and ⬆️ fares. We need to elect Dems to the PA senate so we can stop this nonsense.
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.
The people shouldn’t be afraid of their government. @chefjoseandres.bsky.social is amongst the most sincere, giving men on the planet. Today, he’s serving an honest #CupOfJoe to the felon in chief. Chef José Andrés radiates compassion. #DemsUnited
Prominent Cardiologist on CNN Urges Americans to ‘Not Trust’ U.S. Health Dept Leadership on Vaccines
Trump and Republicans attack unions because they know organized workers are powerful. But let’s be clear: workers built this country—not billionaires. (1/2)
Beef prices have hit record highs this Labor Day Weekend — in part thanks to Trump's tariffs. Remember when Trump said he would bring down the cost of groceries? https://youtu.be/9EXi6xyOXSk?feature=shared
Donald Trump did this 👇
Chick-fil-A abruptly begins closing stores as economic crisis accelerates. All across America, restaurants are going dark. “Closed” signs are popping up as jobs disappear. The downturn has come for everyone – even Chick-fil-A. share.newsbreak.com/eswuvvcz?s=i16
Pritzker: "National Guard troops, any kind of troops, on the streets of American city don't belong unless there is an insurrection, unless there is truly an emergency. There is not."
Where's his hair? He looks like he's on death's door. He needs to address the media.
RFK Jr. Did this 👇
NBC: Kristi Noem confirms plan to expand ICE operations in major cities, including Chicago. Trump isn't cracking down on crime, he's conducting an ethnic cleansing by seizing control of state governments. #ProudBlue #Pinks #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice
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.
Over 200 days and still no #TrumpEpsteinFiles released.

I watch Face the Nation every week and when she was on today and said this, my jaw nearly hit the floor. Credit to the moderator for making her repeat it, because I couldn't believe what I heard either.

@jaketapper.bsky.social sure isn’t. Coward.
IT’S ALL NATIVE LAND!
Fifty-one of the 85 Federalist papers were written by a guy born in Nevis.
DESCRIPTION: self-described alpha male, wearing body armor, assault rifle, and wraparound sunglasses because he’s “afraid of nothing.”
That voice . . .
Spent my summers on Long Beach Island thanks to my grandparents.
$8,869,651,000 That’s how much of our taxpayer dollars Dump spent acquiring a 9.9% stake in failing tech company, Intel
www.tiktok.com/t/ZT6GvjPcr/ How in the HELL does any government lawfully deport 600 unaccompanied minors? Who does that? Who the fuck are we? What are we? What have we become?
POPE LEO: “Let us plead God to stop the pandemic of arms, large and small, which infects our world.” He prays for the victims in Minneapolis, and “the countless children killed and injured every day around the world”
Pure fucking evil. Everyone involved in this shit needs to be held accountable.
😆
Let’s ask that famous coward @jaketapper.bsky.social
There's only one way to stop the rumors about Donald Trump's health: a press conference. Why won't he talk to the press, and why isn't the media doggedly demanding it?
Jill Stein and Cornel West both disgust me — such goddamn, self-serving hypocrites.
Fatality.
I'm still waiting for the relentless onslaught of media demands for a press conference and calls to resign.
He won’t let the press anywhere near him. This is getting weirder and weirder.
Look at this graph. The share of national income going to the richest 10 percent was lowest (and share to lower 90 percent highest) when union membership was at its highest. As unions have weakened, inequality has widened. This is why we must build back union power.
a kid like this can either bloom into an empathetic beautiful soul or can curdle into a bully bent on revenge
IT'S HAPPENING.
Rep. Tom Emmer was a deer in the headlights as his attack on Gov. Tim Walz backfired on live TV.
Trump will die soon, if not already. But the stupidity of those who voted for him won’t
Way before Jan 6, when a Trump speech was followed by his fans storming the capitol, there was the PBA riot, when a Giuliani speech was followed by NYPD cops storming NY City Hall, calling Dinkins, the city's 1st Black mayor, the n-word, and threatening him with harm. Giuliani won the next election
Very brave 👍 💙 ✅
🚨 “The people united will never be divided!” Happening in OUR nation’s capital today. 1/2

WTF are all you commie libs talking about? He looks great!!
Through eight months, 501 people have now died on Virginia’s roadways in 2025. Each of the last four years, I’ve offered bills to provide a new, dedicated funding stream for the Virginia Highway Safety Improvement Program so we can prevent deaths and injuries. The Governor vetoed it this year.🧵
Netanyahu’s office tried to use Cindy McCain to prop up their false narrative that adequate food is flowing into Gaza. McCain: “I stand by what I said—there’s not enough food getting in. It simply isn’t enough to be able to do the job, stop malnutrition and starvation.” www.cnn.com/2025/08/31/p...
Ocean County packed the house this afternoon in Toms River! We love this state, our families, friends, and neighbors too much to let Trump and Jack implement their unconstitutional MAGA agenda. It's going to take a lot of hard work but with energy like yours, I know we're up for the challenge.
Free advice for the administration: If you want to stop the Trump health coverage, maybe stop posting verifiably old videos and keeping him as far away from cameras as humanly possible
I wasn’t super convinced that something was seriously wrong with Trump until he tweeted this
📢 GOTV #ONEV1 #Pinks 🌸 #Voices4Victory
Not to spoil my favorite episode we have recorded of my podcast, coming soon, but I spent the past week immersed in the world of Rudy Giuliani. you cannot believe how easily & habitually he lies about anything & everything. how weird his relations with women are. how many firefighters he has killed.
Crime is up. Some success.
👺Missouri GOP Sen. Mike Moon defended child marriage, citing a 12-year-old’s lasting marriage
JUST IN: Judge Sooknanan ordered the government to file a status report by 4 pm to address whether the children have been deplaned. DOJ blew the deadline. Now she orders them to show cause why they didn’t file the report in time — and sets new 6:30 pm deadline.
Sad truth of our current state of affairs in this country...
Also, when engaging in resistance using a sandwich, do not take any bites from it first, because DNA. And remember that your condiments can be used against you in a court of law.
He put chalk on his shoes then walked on the Pulse Memorial crosswalk. Police arrested him. But the court said they had no cause and he was released. The man arrested is now considering suing the state of Florida citing first amendment right violations.
Come Dancing
Just days ahead of the 70th anniversary of the lynching of Emmett Till, the federal government made public thousands of pages of records on Friday, Aug. 22, on the investigation into his murder.
How drunk was he?
