For those who follow me: this is a hard time of the year. I missed the collapse of the second tower by four minutes, lost 19 friends that morning, and continue to lose brothers and sisters to 9/11. Please keep those lost, those impacted, and those we continue to lose, in your thoughts and prayers.
I love Bette

🚨 “The people united will never be divided!” Happening in OUR nation’s capital today. 1/2
Oy vey, I hate autocorrect. Should “ the way Dear Leader does” Sorry I didn’t catch it.
Spot on. They needed to data mine for this plan to work.
Here’s the bright spot in all this hellscape: None of these enablers have the control over the MAGA cult they way Dear Leader does. He goes away, they fracture like cheap crystal. The coalition that brought him to power is far too divergent in views to maintain cohesion. This farce will end.
Yes. I've been talking about this for months. We need to bring down this cult,so it collapses from within. And the most powerful influence on getting a member of any cult to leave is for them to see OTHERS leave. Please don't mock our MAGA-with-regrets. They can help. #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory

Another observation from my 101-year-old grandfather, since he's tickled pink that people enjoy his points of view. He says he listened to Father Coughlin's radio show back in his youth and that nothing reminds him of that infamous antisemite and bigot as Tucker Carlson's commentary today.
With Trump's FBI raiding Bolton's home, his DOJ trumping up "mortgage fraud" probes of Schiff, Tish James and Lisa Cook, Bannon saying ICE will "monitor" 2026 voting, and the convicted felon confirming he's renaming the Kennedy Center to honor himself, it must be #FascistFriday.
Peter, I’m sorry for what my country has become, you deserve better. And we should be better.
Empathy increases our capacity for understanding and connection. When COVID first appeared in the US, and with the confusion brought Asian hate. I remember seeing on the news someone that looked just like my mom, with the same jacket, being attacked in NYC. I knew it wasn't my mom, but the ...
Hope SCOTUS enjoys being treated like Trump’s lapdog
Here's the resignation from the Social Security Admin's Chief Data Officer warning of potentially illegal Trump Admin practices that could compromise Americans' sensitive data. Before it was the CDC. When will Republicans wake up to this not being a policy disagreement but sabotage of the US.
NEW: More than two decades after victims and families of the 9/11 attacks began trying to hold the Saudi government responsible for aiding the Qaida terrorists who carried out the plot, a judge has ruled that a lawsuit against the kingdom can go to trial.
NEW: After reports surfaced that she had been fired, lawyers for CDC Director Susan Monarez say she "has neither resigned nor received notification from the White House that she has been fired, and as a person of integrity and devoted to science, she will not resign."
iQ47 has always been cruel and heartless. This is not due to his age and diminished capacity.
George Soros, the monster under the GOPs bed. The guy is some kind of superhero with massive wealth and power. He’s able to fund protests of thousands of people in dozens of locations, and still has money left over. The GOP frightens so easily. BTW: How’s release of Epstein files going?
The Putin/Trump/Project 2025 Corporate Fascists, knowing the USA the most racially/culturally diverse Free Democratic Republic on Earth, decided many years ago, before their demonization of "the black-guy" Obama w/ Birther BS conspiracies; that dividing us by race w/ fear & hate was their strategy.

🚨🚨BREAKING NEWS🚨🚨💔Mass Casualty School Shooting — 20 victims have been reported. 💔
So refreshing to see re-emergence of the Catholic left. Watch Father Michael Pfleger speak passionately in Chicago. I am definitely getting Berrigan Brother vibes from Vietnam era protests. As a fallen catholic, I am thankful. More, please. www.npr.org/2016/05/03/4... youtu.be/PPD32LqR3xM?...
Trump, the Master Distractor #ABlueView🧵1/3
Danish public broadcaster DR reports at least three Americans with “ties” to Donald Trump are conducting active operations in Greenland, sparking concerns that they could be working to shift public opinion, pushing Trump’s desire to make Greenland a part of the US. 1/2 www.cnn.com/2025/08/27/e...
Trump has asked everyone to pray after today's school shooting during the 1st week of classes at Annunciation Catholic School in southern Minneapolis. Our hearts & thoughts are with their community but we are calling on him & Congress to pass gun control laws NOW! www.cnn.com/2025/08/27/u...
While Trump is covering up his involvement with Epstein and his Pedophelia, he’s dragged the National Guard into DC and armed them. The rest of the country has maga killing the rest of us with guns. Neat.
If thoughts and prayers worked, children wouldn’t have been slaughtered this morning as they attended mass in their Catholic school.

She is getting what she deserves!
The notice said the decision “is not a disciplinary action and is not intended to be punitive.” Really? So it’s a big coincidence??? 🤔 #pinks #proudblue

Trump's main priority is shifting ALL federal funds to constructing the largest $315B Prison Police State in world history. Trump/Miller plan hundreds of Alligator Alcatraz type concentration camps across USA for all those not MAGA or white/American enough for their taste; just like Putin/Kim/NAZIS
I am sickened by the relentless demonisation of refugees. No refugee underfunded a school. No refugee closed a hospital. No refugee took away support from the sick and disabled. We need solutions not scapegoats. Stop blaming refugees and tax the rich instead!
He only uses the term ‘nasty’ when the question or statement hits home , it’s just one of his ‘tells’ - if I were a journalist it would be my mission to make him call me nasty every fucking day 😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎

These people are just soooo dense. Like lead shield dense.
Keep it up Steve, you’re gonna get chapped lips from nursing on that diaper.
Well, welcome to the club. We want to know when the Democratic leadership stops worrying about “collegiality”, “the decorum of the house” and “bipartisanship”. The GOP isn’t interested in any of that. They will happily beat your brains in with the olive branch you are offering.
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...
The man is totally fact resistant. This the guy who would prosecute the victim of an assault for bruising the assailant’s fist with their face. Unreal.
"Elon Musk and his DOGE minions stole the American people's private Social Security data. This was no accident. They come from Silicon Valley, where tech bros are furiously competing to see whose AI can gobble up the most data." - @alaw202.bsky.social
Polishing a turd. What the enablers are best at.
TACO strikes again. Once again, fobs off his failures on other people. Call me unshocked.
How the AF do they allow this guy to talk to the media? He’s decompensating right in front of us.
In order for the financial portion of P2025 to work, they need to engineer a fiscal crisis so extreme that all spending is impacted: the social safety net, social security/medicare, indeed, the American debt obligations. I call back to 2016, where a GOP congressman said “so what if we default?”
Truth, Chef. Historians will not be kind to this era. A cardiac event to America's heart. I wrote an email to US News and World Reports in 2016 predicting some things. In my view , it wasn't hard to figure out where this was going to go. Alas, the public was misled.

“I was r*ped sometimes 3 times a day on that island… and I was not the only girl on that island… Ghislaine must die in prison, because I’ve been in hell and back for the last 17 years.” Listen to the survivors.
All about quotas. No probable cause, no evidence of criminal wrongdoing, just quotas. At what point does this all explode? Thank you Merrick Garland. How’s that legacy working out?

It's never enough. Ever. The crazy thing is their heroes haven't delivered anything of significance, yet they worship them. If they ever get in office and still fail - they blame centrists. There is no winning with them.
EPSTEIN victim, Virginia Guiffre’s family is outraged at the latest events around the EPSTEIN FILES 👇👇👇👇👇
So, when you activate the State National Guard without a specific request from the State Governor or deploy another State’s National Guard into another State, at what point have we crossed the Rubicon into Civil War? Regular Forces, what about Posse Comitatus? Or do actual shots have to be fired?
Also: Do not use, collegiality “For the dignity of the House/ Senate” “Strongly worded memo”
How many bites at the apple does this DOJ get?
Yes, this ad is hard to watch. That's why everyone needs to watch it. Whether you’re blue, red, Dem, or MAGA - it doesn’t matter. If you’re a GOOD human, you want to know the FULL TRUTH about the Epstein files. #ReleaseAllTheEpsteinFiles #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory
Wow. I honestly can’t wrap my head around this one. Dare we ask how she knows? Man, I’m kinda speechless.
Is Tapper writing another book?
I’m shocked Trump didn’t block this. It’s exactly the kind of history he wants to whitewash. Thousands of pages dropped on how the DOJ, FBI, and Civil Rights Commission handled Emmett Till’s murder. REMINDER: It all began with a lie from a white woman that became a death sentence for a Black kid.
The GOP “Starve the Beast” strategy explained: 1) Create massive voucher costs. 2) Manufacture a budget crisis. 3) Use it to slash education + social safety nets. It’s not mismanagement, it’s sabotage. Explainer explains all. #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 #USDemocracy #ProudBlue youtu.be/oFsTC3Jif9I
My name is Captain Dylan Blaha, and this message is for members of the National Guard across the USA. I've served in the Illinois Army National Guard for over 12 years, including a deployment to Afghanistan and three years on active duty in Europe. What's going on right now is not normal.
These 26 should tour the US churches and speak the truth about the man who has hoodwinked them.
So what happened yesterday? DOJ gave the House 1 gigabyte out of 300Gs of evidence on Epstein & released a transcript of a lying sack of 💩 talking to another lying sack of 💩 doing 20 years in prison for child sex trafficking. Keep the pressure on! It ain’t gonna go away! #ReleaseAllTheEpsteinFiles
This is the ultimate goal with “child safety” block anything and everything that doesn’t adhere to the P2025 agenda. Overly broad definitions of “adult content” or overly broad “community standards”. All about control.
Outstanding! I was just a deckie, about a million years ago.
lol I so glad I wasn’t drinking coffee…that was awesome. (Thank you for your service my friend. Puddle Pirate 1982-88)
I could go on for days about how we had no business going into Iraq; once the GWOT transitioned from hunting Bin Laden to “Nation Building in Iraq” we lost the script. At considerable expense in terms of people and treasure. That damaged one of the finest military forces in the world.
Ah, the hazards of an education! 😉 One goes largely unappreciated. I’ve tried to “‘splain” it but the eyes glaze right over. Imagine if I quoted Cicero!! The screams would be deafening.
I probably wasn’t clear: I do think that the average American holds the military in a higher regard now than they did in the 70s. I’m being very unscientific: I get “ thanked for my service” simply because I’m wearing a hat. But that all goes away if the public sees you as an oppressor.
Definitely agree to a point. They can still be brought to book by the legal system and sent to prison. But once we crossed the Rubicon into just ignoring their behavior or papering it over, they lost a considerable amount of any goodwill. I cannot blame a POC as seeing them as the enemy.
I’m on the same page as you. You end up with some “military force” that basically masquerades as military, but is just uniformed thugs that the people are terrified of. History is replete with these examples.
Project 2025 at work ICE is the beginning of a national police force, answerable only to the Trump administration of white Christian nationalists YOU should look a lot closer at Project 2025 be terrified
How’s the DC tourist industry doing? He is systematically destroying your country on every front. Vlad is laughing his ass off. I fear the economy has to crash before repubs with the power to stop him will do so. Only when it affects them. Then they may do something.
This is where we are.
This will eventually result in a use of force escalation where someone is killed. No reason for the taser to be up or out. Short step to a lethal weapon coming up and out.
Interactions from the last few days show ICE officers running their mouths at witnesses of their lawlessness. Now they’re directing violence at them, too.
All eyewash. About as close to the truth as the earth being flat.
He’s such a knob.
What?
Two things can be true, Bolton sucks and the FBI should not target the president’s enemies
It took many years for the military to recover from the devastating effects of Vietnam. They enjoy the trust and respect of the American public. That will be totally blown away by the military being used as domestic enforcement. That trust will be destroyed. Look to history.
Oh Charlie, you sad wee man. When this farce ends, now that you set a precedent, who will speak out for you when the revenge minded people are in charge? See gumdrop, some of us have an appreciation of history. The backlash is never peaceful.
Trump is reading my feed on his burner
"Headlines in New York Times Show Uneasy Mix of Cowardice and Journalism"
Well, I guess a war with Venezuela would serve the purpose of distracting and deflecting. The current Congress won’t utter a peep. Sure, “strongly worded memos” would fly back and forth. But the GOP will pull the “Rally Round The Flag” rope-a-dope and anyone who criticizes will be dealt with.
