Trump just said he is “cleaning up” American cities at his news conference. He’s not wrong. With nothing else to do, National Guard soldiers are quite literally picking up trash in DC…

President Trump on Putin: I have learned things that will be very interesting, I think, in the next few days, you'll find out. He added that he is "watching very closely" the potential meeting with Putin and President Zelenskyy "We're going to see what they do and what happens."

We need to move immediately to a system in which the keystone is UBI (Universal Basic Income). This will be transformative for people's happiness and for beginning the task of breaking down capitalist relations, which only generate anxiety, suffering and inequality.

Abolish Citizens United, one SCOTUS Justice per circuit, living wage not minimum wage (I would also accept UBI as an answer), universal healthcare, universal human rights. That’d be a damn good start
It works both ways. If you're a man and don't believe in abortion, then don't sleep around. Problem solved. It's really interesting how these forced pregnancy enjoyers never hold men responsible for abortion.

I didn't know that. I had family there and everywhere I went, I was able to pump my own gas. Everybody looks the other way.
OMG!! Can't imagine it... New Jersey is the only state where pumping your own gas is illegal, with attendants handling the fueling. This has been the law since 1949, under the Gasoline Dispensing Safety Act, which creates jobs and ensures safety. Oregon just allow it @2bdynamic.bsky.social

I’m not sharing this to scare people—though it’s fucking terrifying. I’m sharing it because we all need to be on guard. We won’t be getting reliable data from the CDC anymore. Worse, the guidance could be harmful. RFK Jr. has no medical training, no scientific background…
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.
Labor Day reminder: Trump is NO friend to organized labor ‼️ He’s ended collective bargaining in federal agencies, kneecapped the National Labor Relations Board, and weakened workplace safety & anti-discrimination protections. Stand with workers. Stand AGAINST Trump.

Platner: No one cares that you pretend to be remorseful as you sell out to lobbyists. Symbolic opposition does not reopen hospitals. Weak condemnations do not bring back Roe V Wade. Maine deserves better than Susan Collins.

My name is Graham Platner and I’m running for US Senate to defeat Susan Collins and topple the oligarchy that’s destroying our country. I’m a veteran, oysterman, and working class Mainer who’s seen this state become unlivable for working people. And that makes me deeply angry.

Good for Nadler to see two things clearly: 1) time for generational change in party/Congress 2) it’s not conscionable to stand with Netanyahu government as they wage genocide

False. Early post-dose adverse events are not wholesale reassigned to the unvaccinated group; they are tracked explicitly (often as partially vaccinated or by days since dose). This man is either dumb or lying. You tell me.

I first fought alongside Jerry Nadler when we took on a corrupt bankruptcy system that was rigged against working families. When New Yorkers needed a champion, Nadler always had their backs. He’s a man of principle, and I’m deeply grateful for his years of public service.
