9 CDC Directors going back to 1977 speak out. What RFK Jr has done to our nationās public health system "should alarm every American." It "is unlike anything we have ever seen at the agency, and unlike anything our country has ever experienced." www.nytimes.com/2025/09/01/o...
This week brought wins on all fronts: Catelin Drey flipped a Trump district in Iowa and broke the GOPās supermajority in the state senate. A federal judge protected Kilmar Abrego Garcia from deportation. And yes, even āAlligator Alcatrazā is about to be empty. Not bad for one week.

Whereās yāallās backbone in fighting authoritarianism and fascism?
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
I see this and I think: how are we all still going (or trying to go) about our lives as if things are normal. When it is so glaringly obvious that things are NOT normal. I think this every time I get on the train to commute to work and people watch. š¤Æ
They are sending soldiers into cities to prepare to intimidate people at the polls next year. They gerrymander because they canāt win on policy. They intimidate because even gerrymandering wonāt work at this point.
This happened during his first term. Went around the table starting with Pence. It was sickening then and itās sickening now.
Itās called rivers and snow melt, you dumb shit.
THANK YOU FOR WATCHING THE LYING LIARS & NEWS STINKERS OF FOX "NEWS" SO WE DON'T HAVE TO! IT IS VERY MUCH APPRECIATED BY THOSE OF US WHO VALUE HONESTY, INTEGRITY & DECENCY WHILE ALLOWING US TO CONSUME ACTUAL FACTS WITHOUT THEIR BRAINWASHING TECHNIQUES & ABILITY TO TRIGGER BOUTS OF VIOLENT NAUSEA. š¤®
The Santa Rosa case is horrifying, but it should be a wake-up call. A SR security guard poses as police officer to rape women. If Trumpās immigration enforcement practices make it easier for criminals to masquerade as āICEā or āpolice,āthen this administrationās policies are not just failingā
Iāve been waiting for this to happen. Stand your ground!
This šš¾ āWhy do they need masks? Theyāre federal officials, theyāre paid by the taxpayers. They should be doing their jobs in a way thatās lawful and constitutional, and thatās part of the job.ā DC Mayor Bowser questions why so many federal officers in the capital continue to cover their faces.
May this portion of the dissent by Ketanji Brown Jackson haunt John Roberts forever and be the final word on his tenure as Chief Justice.
And the looking back at you? That was to make sure that you werenāt following her. I was raised by religious authoritarian parents. They revered Dobson. Fuck him & I hope there is a hell and heās in it.
James Dobson is finally dead and I have been trying to besmirch his legacy for the past few years! If you want to understand how he targeted strategic developmental stages in childhood to create people ripe for authoritarian abuse, start here: strongwilled.substack.com/p/chapter-3-...
He just described the thought process of every creeper who thinks that a woman smiling is all about him and that sheās interested. Maybe the angry look on your face while youāre trying to ācool offā made her smile nervously.
I hate the NYT. āChallenge the legitimacyā? How about out right fucking denies it?
Newsom: I mean, even poor Kid Rock ā these guys, theyāve gotten a little precious, havenāt they? The folks at Fox are like, āOh, this is so unbecoming of a governor. Oh, oh.ā And meanwhile, they sit there reading his tweets every single day. Are they really that out of touch?
Says one NYT guest opinion which is immediately cancelled out by YEARS of NYT whitewashing and normalizing DJT by their ājournalistsā. One guest opinion standing up and speaking out facts and truth doesnāt make us forget or forgive the rest of your miserable coverage. @nytopinion.nytimes.com
Is that a whip encased in glass that was used on enslaved humans? Seriously? WTF!
To my 10th grade English teacher, who said, āMake the conclusion count.ā
Yes. Yes, it is fucking hilarious.
āPutin is a predator, an ogre at our gates,ā French President Macron warned. Calling Russia a long-term destabilizing force, he stressed Putin rarely honors commitments and seeks to redraw borders. āThis is a threat to Europeansāwe must not be naive,ā Macron said.
Garcia: What I can say is that I want the American public to hear what Bill Barr said in his deposition ā about how he views the current DOJās actions, and Todd Blancheās actions as they relate to this deal with Ms. Maxwell. The American public should know what was said
Under Trump, middle-class Americans like teachers, firefighters, truck drivers and police officers will lose hundreds of dollars next year. Billionaires? They'll pocket hundreds of THOUSANDS in tax breaks. And Republicans couldnāt care lessābecause that was the plan all along.
My prediction is that he starts sending bombers over blue states/blue cities. Iām in California. Extremely horrible but when has that stopped a pedo?
Listen, you canāt break the Trump cult, but they are the minority. We need a sustained presence of Democrats in rural spaces to talk to their neighbors and run for office. Seats go uncontested for decades. Hate gerrymandering? Get Democrats on every ballot and every race. We have to run to win.
A terrorist targeted federal workers last week. There wasnāt much reporting on it. But Iām not finished thinking about it! š§µ An anti-vaxxer fired more than 500 gunshots into CDC Atlanta, shattering 150 āblast-proofā windows on 6 buildings. Employees were pinned down in terror.
To do what exactlyā¦Provide targets for sandwiches! Sandwiches, Assemble!
Loved that series!
Doesnāt Putin generally have a smirk on his face when heās with his puppet, Trump? That smirk never leaves his face.
Protection against getting hit with subway sandwiches!
Vladeck: Thereās one video showing a DEA officer telling a D.C. resident he couldnāt drink alcohol on his porchāD.C. law says exactly the opposite. It also highlights how these officers arenāt even trained in the laws theyāre purportedly enforcing.

Newsom: "He doesn't play by a different set of rules. He doesn't believe in the rules. As a consequence, we need to disabuse ourselves of the way things have been done. It's not enough to just hold hands, have a candlelight vigil, talk about way the world should be...we have got to meet fire w/fire"
holy shit this is a helluva ad from the Democrat running against Joni Ernst in Iowa. worth every second
#ProudBlue Stephen Miller can fuck all of the way off. Stephen Miller says DC is like Baghdad or Fallujah. The only war here is the GOPās war on truth. Their plan to intimidate Americans isnāt working. We see through their bullshit.
Her eyes say: I have seen some shit, yāall.
I know several people who werenāt āthat worriedā about Project 2025 after I warned them about it. They didnāt read it. I did. Recently, I said to them: I TOLD YOU SO. Yes. I burnt the bridge. š„š„š„ Zero regrets.
They go fast when they want to go fast and slow when they want to go to slow and the decision is *always* an ideological one.
I think criticism of legacy media is what everyone should do. Unless we call it out, they get away with their bullshit. Also, unsubscribe from all of it.
Every Democratic state that can do this, should do this. Then, when we control the levels of power in DC, we ban gerrymandering for the entire country. Once and for all. Everyone playing by the same rules.
DC is FORTY-ONE PERCENT Black. Do you understand?
The Confederates always used "state's rights" when it was convenient and the feds to control the states when it wasn't. We are still fighting the confederates...they weren't punished well enough and they never went away.
She said she made it 21 years but thatās long enough to know this is bullshit. In my 53 years I agree. Theyāre dehumanizing us.
Please tell me that the people listed are going to ignore the subpoenas. Like Republicans do.
CONCENTRATION CAMPS. Can we just call them what they are? Concentration Camps. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
And did it work? š It does with my dog.
Fun fact: I canceled my subscription to WaPo 2-3 years ago. Yesterday I received a survey request from them. Hopefully, my responses burned a hole in their inbox.
His actions are authoritarian. Itās called authoritarianism. Please call it out.
We should have the House right now. Let me say it again: we should have the House. This aināt just a Texas problem, itās a national problem. Theyāre stealing seats to keep power, and thatās how we ended up with Speaker Johnson instead of Speaker Jeffries. They canāt win fair, so they cheat.
Are you serious? Um, fuck Trump voters. Theyāve had YEARS to see who he is and theyāve refused. You go talk to them, Chris. Because Iāve got nothing to say to them. Except fuck off & you voted for this so suck it up, bitch.
Put him in prison!
Looks like a map of the stars. Beautiful!
Damnit! Beat me to it.
Itās time to get ruthlessš„ If California holds a special election on redistricting, Iām voting āyesā for new maps. And I promise you Iām bringing friends and family with me to vote. The Supreme Court already made it clear itās fine with gerrymandering. So screw it. LFG.
Iād pay a reporter $1000 to yell out during this blonde bitchās bloviating: SHUT THE FUCK UP, YOU LYING CUNT!
Today is my birthday (turning 29), which is the only time all year that I ask for a repost šæ I hope you get lost in fantasy worlds as much as I do š®
Y'all know they're never going to release anything from the Epstein files that would actually implicate any powerful people. They'll just take that out, redact it, or make some bullshit up. What we NEED is a whistleblower to release ALL OF IT.

I have. Itās still insane.
Buttery emails!!!

Thank you! It boggles my mind that some people are thinking this way. I struggle with showing up for work every day. How are we all still going about our lives? This is insane.
The extremely simple fact is that Jeff Epstein was the most notorious child sex trafficker in history, and the President of the US was his close personal friend for decades Acting like this is complicated is absurd. The man knew what Epstein did, didn't care, and participated

Cult member, Pam, blows hard: āAt the local Walmart, Pam, who also asked not to give her last name, said she didnāt believe that Trumpās name was in the files. āTrump has morals ā it may not seem like he does, but deep down he does. He wanted to protect the United States when nobody else did.ā

While the Department of Justice is meeting in secret with Ghislaine Maxwell to coach her on testimony, it is hiding from us three discs containing court-authorized recordings of her phone calls. [Source: ABC News] That is the REAL evidence. And this is a cover-up.
Is NOBODY going to call DoJ's Todd Blanche "questioning" Ghislaine Maxwell what it actually is - WITNESS TAMPERING? Really, not one person?
Todayās front page of The National, a Scottish newspaper.
The Department of Justice is pretending it needed to talk to notorious liar Ghislaine Maxwell to know the truth about Jeffrey Epstein, when it is concealing thousands of documents about him that donāt lie. Itās a sick farce.

Fuck the LAPD.
So congress going home for vacation early! Because of Epstein. Demand a town hall now, they have free time!
This is wild ā House Republicans are so scared of voting to release the Epstein files theyāre going home early. (We agree, @AdamKinzinger, telephone town halls donāt count. But thatās all we get around here. @RepTimBurchett @MarshaBlackburn @RepOgles @RepJohnRose)
This oneās actually worth watching! š

Oligarchy solidarity. Fuck them .
The fact that the President of the United States posts a fake video of a kneeling Barack Obama being handcuffed and weāre supposed to pretend itās perfectly normal, everyday stuff shows exactly what is terribly wrong with todayās political mainstream media.
really important to emphasize that roberts' view of the executive branch as comprising a single individual is literally contradicted by the text of the constitution itself
