The idiotic and inept orange fascist circus is harming all of us
I never hear ANYTHING from the DNC.....why not? With the fascist takeover, they should be communicating their butts off...nothing.
I believe this is an old video. Still disgusting behavior from a cop, but FYI -
I love Sly
Congrats to you!!! Writing a novel is an amazing accomplishment!!!

NEW: The trump administration attempted to remove 600 terrified unaccompanied minors to Guatemala in the middle of the night on a holiday weekend. Judge Sooknanan stopped it. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/the-sookna...
How can DOJ do this to CHILDREN? Cruel b*stards. Put these kids through this trauma - for WHAT? (P.S. There is no "DOJ" - there is no Department of Justice - it's become the Dept of Cruelty)
They're both lying to you.
Guatemalan children seen deplaning in Texas after judge blocks Trump deportation plan
Bonnie Raitt was at Tanglewood?!!! I am so jelly
Miraculous beauty
Will this go to SCOTUS? I hope this is a final decision - to dismantle this concentration camp
More name changes afoot… Department of Defense = Department of War Department of Education = Department of Keeping You Stupid Center for Disease Control = Center for Crackpot Conspiracies Department of Agriculture = Department of Subsidies for Farmers going broke from tariffs
Almost 60 years later, this song is so relevant again. youtu.be/gp5JCrSXkJY?...
Lankford seems goofy and lacking of critical thinking skills. He is another puppet. (PS I agree with getting chemicals & pesticides out of our food - other than that....RFKjr is out of his wormy mind)
@jollygoodginger.bsky.social is in DC with other vets right now standing up for democracy. He's playing General Milleys speech on repeat for them today 💜 #LoveTheVets!
Is he now wearing Fidel Castro's hat?
This is the man who deserves the Nobel Peace Prize MUCH more than the orange fascist.
You are being kind. No one in this fascist administration has a soul. They are all cruel and they all lie.
New Mexico has issued a public health order that removes federal restrictions to COVID-19 vaccine access so that pharmacies in New Mexico can vaccinate people of all ages and risk profiles. Every state need to do this!
Science is real
I like Presidents that know that the Mail-In Ballots and the Paper Ballots are the same thing.
The Constitution provides Congress the power to override a Presidential veto. They aren’t co equal on law passing. Congress is the superlative body.
You are right. But I'd still rather have anyone other than the orange man or anyone on his "circus team"
Medicare for all, paid leave, universal childcare. Busting up big corporations and tackling Wall Street’s greed. Getting big money out of politics. Supporting unions and fighting for higher wages. If Dems want to win back working people, this is the agenda they must support.
Can the media STOP referring to Jeffrey Epstein as a “financier”? The money he made came from SEX TRAFFICKING MINORS, RAPING CHILDREN, and BLACKMAIL. He was NOT a financier. I’ve seen at least five stories from three outlets refer to him this way in the past week. This is the latest from the Times:
Every day I think "nothing can be more insane than this" but every day I'm wrong. The orange fascist government. Why in h*ll is the U.S. Govt denying Venezuelan's asylum claims? The orange circus is truly inept.
Good point! This fascist dude initiates my gag reflex any time I see or hear him.
The Free State of Florida is now trying to ban *sidewalk chalking*
CARTOON OF THE DAY (From @mluckovichajc)
Me too
We keep seeing this exact gaslighting over and over — @RepJohnRose & Sexton also said this to NC5 $1 TRILLION in Medicaid cuts only impacting people who *shouldn’t be on it* + “waste/fraud/abuse” is nonsense Also: if all this fraud exists, why 0 arrests?
Why Isn't Donald Trump's Declining Health Being Covered by Corporate Media? Where are the op-eds & news programs calling for Trump's resignation due to his declining health, impaired abilities, & march towards fascism? Oh, yeah, "both sides" corporate journalism. open.substack.com/pub/thelefth...
I agree. We are already there.

Maybe THIS is the man who deserves the Nobel Peace Prize. He certainly deserves it more than the orange man.
“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.
@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.”
B*stards
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.
I am glad about this
Who is commanding this stupidity - DeSantis? Sick people
No matter what @MarshaBlackburn keeps saying, it’s not criminals they’re targeting. www.cnn.com/2025/08/30/u...
Love this
Jones: We have a presidential administration that has more outrage about the changing of the cracker barrel logo than they do about changing the policies that allow our children to be gunned down in school…
SIGNS OF FASCISM 🪧
YES
WTF?
Mike Johnson will go down in history as the white supremacist Christian nationalist Speaker of the House who attempted to cover up a pedophilic criminal regime and replace US democracy with a fascist dictatorship.
“Give your kids an extra hug and kiss today.” Jesse Merkel spoke at a news conference outside Annunciation Catholic Church in Minneapolis, where his 8-year-old son, Fletcher, was one of two children fatally shot at a back-to-school Mass on Wednesday. Read more: nyti.ms/45HBSKN
👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
THIS IS NOT NORMAL.
Just read that pediatric brain cancer research funds have been cut off by worm Infested HHS Secretary. Alzheimer’s research has been cut too. Only those with hate in their hearts could take away hope from our children and families. Wake Up People before we are too sick to open our eyes.
NEW: A federal judge ordered an Arkansas school district to take down Ten Commandments displays in its classrooms following our lawsuit.
Yes
F*ckers
The next days and months and years will demand from all of us great courage — and solidarity. Be prepared.
Jain: We have a U.S. Attorney’s Office that is also facing a vacancy crisis. And that is at least partially because the predecessor to the current U.S. Attorney, Jeanine Pirro, was Ed Martin. He fired more than 20 prosecutors whose only “crime” was prosecuting violent January 6 insurrectionists.
ICE are domestic terrorists. I hate everything they do
When a president decides to disregard the will of the American people, you’re right, that’s the mark of authoritarian rule. The White House has notified Congress that it plans to cancel $4.9 billion in foreign aid funding that lawmakers had already approved, doing so without their consent.
Lots of right-wing political pastors and charlatans about to get rich from FEMA money.

Iowa State Senator Zach Wahls, who hopes to fill the Senate seat being vacated by Joni Ernst, talks with Jen Psaki about the top two issues he hears about on the campaign trail: the economy, and political corruption. @zachwahls.bsky.social
Making a total joke of "the rule of law". Insanity
I love this
but we've seen a lot more of the disgusting stephen miller on TV. That makes me very nervous
70% of these people have NO CRIMINAL CONVICTION
NEW: Texas Governor Greg Abbott has signed into law a new, deeply gerrymandered congressional map that disenfranchises voters of color for political gain. All voters deserve to be heard. This is an affront to our democracy.
Excellent question.
It seems safe to say it's been a tough week for Republicans coming home from the Washington DC bubble.
Rubio has lost his mind (and soul)
Huh.
I don't understand why, if they are illegal, then why the hell do they "stay in place" until the fascist regime decides to appeal, which we all know they will do. Why not suspend the tariffs until it is ironed out?
And why are we seeing so much more of Stephen Evil-Man Miller on TV in the past week or so? Something weird is going on. Miller has way too much power
OUTRAGEOUS
Chief justice Roberts is a COMPLETE disappointment.
A federal judge has ordered Florida to shut down "Alligator Alcatraz," after the state spent a staggering $218M to build the now-vacant detention camp. Closing it will run taxpayers another $20M. An utterly cruel and costly waste.
Breaking News: The Trump administration moved to lay off about 500 employees at the news network Voice of America, two months after it retracted layoff notices. nyti.ms/3HT3cfV
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.
Dear journalists: The President has not fired Lisa Cook. The President is trying to illegally fire her. Your words shape reality — get it right.
Breaking News: FEMA suspended about 30 employees who had told Congress that the Trump administration had gutted the nation’s emergency preparedness.
“I have the right to do anything I want to do—I’m the president of the United States,” says the lawless and unfettered Trump musing about being a dictator. This is what John Roberts, the Supreme Court’s supermajority and over 77 million Americans have done to our beloved country.
23 Dem governors are “crucial in resisting Trump’s defiance of our federal system & the independent power of states. The more Trump over-reaches in his deployment of military troops & other criminal violations, the more we should expect Dem states to say no.” www.americaamerica.news/p/snapshot-y...
NPR: “A whistleblower says a former senior DOGE official now at the Social Security Administration copied the Social Security numbers, names & birthdays of over 300 million Americans to a private section of the agency's cloud lacking adequate security...” www.npr.org/2025/08/26/n...
Get Susan Collins OUT.
I stand with the Staffers!!! Power to the people!
Congratulations!!! That is great news for everyone!
I did 🤮
This was an amazing discussion about media, democracy, and community. Heather Cox Richardson Leigh McGowan (Politics Girl) Joanne Carducci (JoJoFromJerz) Dana Goldberg substack.com/@muellershew...
"Acosta took what was a prepared, 60-count federal indictment that could have landed Epstein in prison for the rest of this life many times over, and turned it into the sweetest plea bargain in the world." Rep. Raskin previews why congressional Democrats are so eager to hear from Alex Acosta.
"For those people out there who ... say, 'Well, I just don't like those people either' ... You could be next. ... This is not about any one individual, this is about our rights as Americans, and our right to have a justice system where choices about prosecuting are made without fear or favor."
The military is not a police force, and should never be deployed in American communities against their will. That the President doesn't understand this (or simply doesn't care) shows just how grossly unfit for office he is.
