You guys see where this is going? Right?

Yes!

Love that movie!
This is the way

Fuck every one of these Republicans enabling Kennedy.
Glad he’s leading on sounding the alarm.
BREAKING: A federal judge has *blocked* the Trump administration from abruptly deporting 600 unaccompanied Guatemalan children — perhaps within a matter of hours — granting an emergency restraining order after advocates called the plan illegal + dangerous. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
A record number of deaths from rabies. In part because vaccination rates for dogs have plunged. Because stupidity. “… nearly 40% believed canine vaccines were unsafe and 37% believed that vaccines could lead their dogs to develop cognitive issues, such as autism.”

Did he get a decoder ring, too?
President says Missouri GOP must pass the new congressional map “AS IS.” No changes by the legislature. #moleg #mogov missouriindependent.com/2025/08/29/m...
Not sure what @schumer.senate.gov means here, he was given the choice of being "party to [Republican] destruction" at the last budget impasse; he decided in favor of it and rallied other Dems to join him. He'll just do it again and say "the Baileys" told him to. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

DOGE wasn’t a cost-cutting venture. It was a data mining operation for private interests. Trump opened the gates to the castle from inside for invaders with bad and greedy intent to plunder and exploit.

NEW: SSA chief data officer and whistleblower Charles Borges resigned today—but his resignation email quickly disappeared from recipients' inboxes, sources tell @wired.com. @makenakelly.bsky.social and @davidgilbert.bsky.social report: www.wired.com/story/charle...
Same.
Breaking: Trump tariffs ruled illegal, Heard Island penguins rejoice.
Sums up America in 2025 pretty well I’d say
BREAKING | As we predicted, Republican Gov. "Marionette" Mike Kehoe is handing over control of Missouri's congressional maps to Washington D.C. elites in service of his ultimate master. This isn't over. #moleg #Missouri
“One of the world’s foremost experts on public health.” JFC.
New: Missouri Gov. Mike Kehoe is also calling on lawmakers to make changes to the state’s initiative petition process, a stunning endorsement of a plan to weaken direct democracy in Missouri. Details here: www.kansascity.com/news/politic...
Once again a court has ruled Trump’s terrible tariffs to be illegal and unconstitutional for they clearly are. They are modern day taxation without representation and Democrats should be fighting them with every patriotic bone in our body.
Well done.
In my house, when we simmer a big batch of Bolognese, we always put on Goodfellas to set the mood.
I’m surprised RFK Jr didn’t make a radioactive shrimp sandwich and wash it down with raw milk.
I’ve seen some D Senators advocate firing, but no D House members?
Dems are failing to do the basics by not calling for impeachment of cabinet officials like RFK Jr and others. And just in case there is any doubt (or lack of basic understanding) that the House of Reps. have the authority to impeach cabinet officials - and that Dems can call for it.

Not only is our new acting director of the CDC NOT a scientist, but he also has deep ties to Peter Thiel and Silicon Valley’s techno-utopia movement. One epidemiologist compared Jim O’Neill’s appointment to “making Elon Musk head of the FAA.”
Made me think of this classic: www.youtube.com/watch?v=W46C...
In 7 months, Trump and Republicans have done generational damage to the United States, our economy, our national security, our reputation, and our health care. They're hollowing it out. Rich will get richer, and Putin will get what he wants.

Is Polis term-limited? No Democrat should collaborate with a dangerous quack like Kennedy.
Colorado, you in danger, girl.
But, “We’re all going to die” is such a great campaign slogan.
And so it begins.....
He looks like Nick Offerman with blonde hair.
"Schumer should accept defeat here. He should stop trying to recruit anyone to run against Platner. He should give everyone in the Democratic coalition a fair and unspoiled test of left-populist appeal." Agreed, @brianbeutler.bsky.social www.offmessage.net/p/graham-pla...
ok this is...absurd I mean we knew that he would continue working in Trump's interest on the bench but literally continuing to work for Trump post-confirmation is ???? I know it's kinda trite at this point to acknowledge the hypocrisy but MAN can you imagine if, say, Dale Ho kept doing ACLU work?
More or less universally a country seeking to limit foreigners studying in that country is a sign of a society, culture, great power in severe decline.

Don’t stop! Stay on target!
I used to do veterinary emergency work, and the Pitt had me yelling stuff like “You’re making the pneumothorax worse!” at the TV.
Rhymes with Key Largo?
Good job!
I contacted Hawley and Schmitt today about the same thing.
Missouri voters overwhelmingly approved earned sick time last November. Governor Mike Kehoe and Missouri Republicans signed away that right. Corporations won. Working Missourians lost.  This is an actual email forwarded to me from an employee of a company removing earned sick time.
Eat shit with this fawning, shitty take @axios.com This conspiratorial quack is destroying the CDC, and public health in the US will suffer.
Hey Dems, This 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 is how it’s done. Too many statements today have stopped short of calling for Kennedy’s removal.
Did that this morning!
I think Dems need to “be caught trying”. I realize they are the legislative minority, but they should put Rs on the defensive about confirming this dangerous quack who is gutting the CDC.

Elected Dems need to loudly call for RFK Jr. to be fired or impeached.
You need to call for him to be fired or impeached.

RFK Jr. must be impeached and removed.
This was all knowable. Every damn Republican who confirmed this wrecking ball has blood on his or her hands.
Mexico said Wednesday its postal service was suspending package shipments to the United States ahead of an end to the exemption on tariff duties for low-value packages by the Trump administration.
