So...no due process? Cool, cool. Good luck, everyone. www.washingtonpost.com/world/2025/0...
Pritzker: "Any rational person who has spent even the most minimal amount of time studying human history has to ask themselves one important question: once they get the citizens of this nation comfortable with the current atrocities committed under the color of law, what comes next?"
Pretty damn good campaign launch video from Paige Cognetti.
More than 85 scientists say that a recent U.S. Department of Energy report is full of errors and misrepresents climate science.

Project 2025 is a terrorist organization. Their goal is to destroy the United States of America. They and all their enablers should be dealt with accordingly. The best time to do it was ten years ago, the next best time is TODAY! #GOP #SCOTUS #Congress #POTUS #USA #America @romanpiso.bsky.social
Release the Epstein files.

Things feel uncertain right now, Illinois. I want you all to know we’re doing everything we can to protect your rights. Make sure you know how to stand up for yourself and others at illinoisimmigrationinfo.org.

Senate Democrats: DO NOT FUND the government when the current continuing resolution expires at the end of the month. SHUT IT DOWN unless DC is funded, the troops are withdrawn from our cities, elections are protected, the Epstein files are released in full... SHUT IT DOWN.
The largest SNAP cuts in history went into effect yesterday, eliminating or drastically cutting food assistance for millions of Americans. And it’s all to pay for more tax cuts that primarily benefit the super-rich. Trickle-down economics isn't just a hoax — it's cruel.
And I share it!
🚨BREAKING: Federal court STRIKES DOWN down new South Dakota law imposing a nine-month deadline to file ballot measures declaring it unconstitutional under the First Amendment. Congrats to Dakotans for Health and their legal team! www.democracydocket.com/cases/south-...
Pritzker: When did we become a country where it's okay for the president to insist on national television that a state should call him to beg for anything, especially something we don't want? Have we truly lost all sense of sanity in this nation that we treat this as normal?

As a veteran, my blood is boiling. The people in the national guard have families and jobs and they've been pulled from both to PICK UP FUCKING TRASH! They weren't deployed to help in a crisis. They were deployed TO PICK UP FUCKING TRASH! It's a slap in face to our TROOPS! WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK! 😡
New York does not miss. The bleach did it for me. 😭
Platner: I believe that input from working people is far more important than input from someone who simply has money. I believe that we shouldn’t be settling for crumbs while billionaires eat the cookie we baked.
Today's a good day to learn Colbert found a new job. Hope it's a good one for everybody! #HappyLaborDay
Kressly: I expect in the next couple of weeks, this is going to get worse. You’re going to hear from the same administrative people who have gutted the expertise needed to promote child health — pushing false narratives like, “we need to look at the link between vaccines and autism.” That is a lie.
Nadler ‘said that under the leadership of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Israel was committing mass murder and war crimes in Gaza “without question.”’
This Labor Day (and all other days): Thank the workers who serve you. Appreciate the workers who care for you. Respect the workers who pick up your trash. Salute the workers who get you your mail. Honor the workers who teach your children. Pay all workers a living wage.
"We have yet to understand, that if I’m starving—you are in danger. People think that my danger makes them safe—they're in trouble."—James Baldwin How many people realize that Americans are suffering worse wealth and income inequality now than a century ago? www.qasimrashid.com/p/9-facts-on...
🚨Let’s hear it for Columbus, Ohio! 🚨
Platner: Our taxpayer dollars can build schools and hospitals in America, not bombs to destroy them in Gaza.
A Florida court detained a US Citizen for being an "illegal immigrant." He showed the court proof of citizenship. The court agreed—& held him anyway. I criticized the ruling online & a Florida judge responded by trying to strip me of my law license. I fought back www.qasimrashid.com/p/a-florida-...
Never forget this: Working people outnumber the billionaires and CEOs by a huge margin. If workers stand together, they will win. Solidarity.

Amazing 👏🏼
Damn and school just started…lucky kids….great teacher this is 🔥
This should be getting far more attention from the media, and it should be investigated as a hate crime. A 14-year-old Black teen was targeted, beaten, and dehumanized with racial slurs by white teens while people stood around cheering. 1/4
A special message from WA Dems Chair, Shasti Conrad!
Thank you on this labor day!!
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.
Yes, we can ✊️
New Mexico is overriding the federal government on the topic of COVID19 vaccines to ensure their residents can access them. States hold a tremendous amount of public health power. They should use it.
A couple of months ago, the Navy dishonored civil rights hero Harvey Milk by removing his name from a ship. Now, the Air Force is dishonoring itself by celebrating a domestic terrorist called Ashli Babbitt.
Ashli Babbitt was a domestic terrorist who was shot while committing a violent crime that demonstrated a clear intention to do bodily harm to the people on the other side of those doors. The officer ended the threat she represented...as they were required to do by lethal force if necessary. It was

Washington Dulles International Airport was built on the site of the all-Black community of Willard, Virginia, which was destroyed by the federal government through eminent domain around 1958 to make way for the airport. An unfortunate repeated reality for many in U.S. history.
🚨 Labor Day - Bernie is making a special stop in Maine on his Fighting Oligarchy Tour to rally w/ two powerhouse candidates: 🌊 Graham Platner - oyster farmer, Marine vet, and bold challenger to Susan Collins 🌲 Troy Jackson - logger, union leader, and working-class champ for Governor Eyes on 2026 👀
CDC leaders on why the left: “I resigned because I could not be part of the weaponization of public health and CDC… we should always be questioning - but you shouldn’t have a preconceived idea before you have the data.”
Daskalakis: I very specifically use the term pregnant people, and very specifically added my pronouns at the end of my resignation letter to make the point that I am defying this terrible strategy of trying to erase people
GOV. @gavinnewsom.bsky.social : “Facts are stubborn things… Mississippi, Tennessee, Arkansas…. Alabama is a top 3 murder state. Where is the President? — He isn’t focused on crime & violence. It’s about an expression of authoritarianism.” (H/T @acyn.bsky.social )
Between RFK decimating the CDC, normalizing Ashli Babbitt & the umpteenth school shooting... I'm losing the will to post. #ReleaseTheEPSTEIN_Files
Don’t look away
RULE ABOUT AMERICAN FLAGS: If you burn the fabric part, you're looking at jail. But it you use the pole part to assault a police officer, you get a presidential pardon, praise, and some cash.
The @uaw.org has claimed a narrow victory in a union election at the BlueOval battery plant in Kentucky, a historic win. The tally is 526-515 for unionization. Ford is contesting 41 ballots, a challenge the union is urging them to drop.
We’ll wait…🤔
Dr. Demetre, in his resignation from the CDC, said this: “I have never experienced such radical non-transparency, nor have I seen such unskilled manipulation of data to achieve a political end rather than the good of the American people”. It is an outrage that RFK Jr. remains as head of HHS.
We’re going to go on a rant for a minute, and yes we’re bringing some history with us. Back in 1755, Benjamin Franklin wrote words that still echo today: “Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.”
Vaccines are safe and effective. RFK Jr. isn’t.
@kenmartin.bsky.social demonstrates why I opposed him for DNC chair. He's all in for billionaire donors and sold the democratic party to AIPAC. The DNC refusal to adopt a platform that recognizes that PALESTINE also has a right to self-determination and a right to exist is a FUCK YOU to US ALL.
NRA: “Guns don’t kill people.” ME: “They certainly seem to help.”
This is very bad news. Louisiana won't even defend its own map in SCOTUS. It abandoned its own Black voters. Those of us committed to defending the VRA are now entirely on our own. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Yes, it should. However, that would require an effective mainstream media in America — which we don’t currently have.
I dare you to go to Annunciation School and tell our grieving community, in effect, guns don’t kill kids, antidepressants do. Just shut up. Stop peddling bullshit. You should be fired.
It shouldn't be up to American children to save each other from getting shot. It's the job of American adults to stop shootings from happening in the first place. Ban assault weapons again now.
70 years ago, on this date, Emmett Till was kidnapped and brutally murdered by white men. His family, including his cousin who was with him at the time, is repeating the train ride he took from Chicago to Mississippi in 1955 to mark the anniversary
D.C. STATEHOOD NOW. It’s long past time to correct this 200 year historical wrong. Let’s make D.C. the 51st state. dcstatehoodnow.org
Curious what the reasoning for this could possibly be. My first thought it that it was a Putin request
Just admit it: You love your guns more than your children. The first step is acknowledging the problem.
Abbe Lowell and I represent CDC Director #SusanMonarez. Contrary to govt statements, Dr. Monarez has neither resigned nor yet been fired. She will not resign. We have issued the following statement:

Dr. William Foege, 89, who helped end smallpox in the 1970s, recently wrote: RFK Jr.’s “words can be as lethal as the smallpox virus.” And his actions are more lethal still. He’s waging war on America. That’s an impeachable offense. He must be removed from office. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/27/h...
"But there’s the VP on MTP, sitting one plaque-encrusted heartbeat away from the presidency—arguing that appeasing Putin is just like how America heroically “compromised” its way to victory against the Nazis." johnfugelsang.substack.com/p/jd-vance-w...
AMERICA: “It’s a mental health issue.” REST OF THE WORLD: “We have those. But don’t have mass shootings.” AMERICA: “It’s video games.” WORLD: “We have those too. But don’t have mass shootings.” AMERICA B: “It’s cause they took Jesus out of the classroom.” WORLD: “God, you’re stupid.”
The NM congressional delegation is working to make sure downwinders get the compensation they deserve for the harm they've endured. The DOJ must ensure a speedy and secure implementation of RECA. As governor, I will continue to fight for our generations of communities affected by radiation exposure.
Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024. This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500. Remember this before you order your next pumpkin spice latte.
It's possible ... hear me out, here …. It may well be that these people lie their asses off whenever they exhale
Commander of Ukraine’s Unmanned Systems Forces, Robert “Magyar” Brovdi, responded sharply to Hungary’s decision to ban him from entering the country, where his father was born: “Shove your sanctions and entry ban where the sun doesn’t shine, Mr. ‘dancer on graves’,” he said, referring to PM Orbán.
We have restructuring to do when make it through to the other side of this coup. House and senate seats should be determined by the number of people represented. Low population states should not have 2 senate seats. All of the racists structures must be abolished and a new way forward established
Just remember, land doesn’t vote, people do. A government that goes to war with the majority of its people, will not last long. #Resist #Autocracy
Six months ago. I meant it. Do it now if you haven’t.

Trump just halted a nearly completed wind project that was set to power 350K homes at a stable rate for 20 years. Over 1,000 jobs—gone. Electric bills—up. All to protect Big Oil. This isn’t "national security." It’s political sabotage. They'd rather destroy our future than build a better one.

Krasner: So, if what you have is a group of ICE agents, or even the military, coming into Philadelphia and committing crimes—assaults that are illegal, kidnapping, unlawful restraint, obstruction of the administration of justice—they can be prosecuted.
Brainworm still eating the carcas. He's so stupid.
There can’t be common-sense reform in Washington if our lawmakers are in the back pockets of PACs and paid lobbyists. Progress means breaking the grip special interests have in our politics. That’s how we clean up Washington.
