This idiot. Seriously. TRUST the experts. DO NOT TRUST the elites who rage against the experts who define limits to what the elites want to haphazardly do.
This sums up the sadistic mentality of the current administration: "And in the end, fun really is the name of the game for Trump and his administration. .. ...it’s fun to unleash troops who understand that they will not be held accountable for their brutality (by this president, at least.)"
In the United States, there are nearly 1,000 billionaires, all of whom enable the Trump regime. But there’s also 350 million of us—the people—and we have over 1,000 protests spread across the nation in protest of billionaires. Join the war room for the working class: @solidaritydept.bsky.social.
A good weekend to remember that unions were the thing that gave us this holiday. The forty hour workweek, work place safety regulations and laws, and ensure pay increases despite federal stagnation. This is the worker's holiday.
Kennedy is a snake oil peddler. Full stop.
You know who benefits most from antivaccine conspiracy theories as national health policy? Our enemies.
Everyone being rewarded for being a loyalist has sealed their fate to be publicly shaved when REAL law and order is reinstated. Shave and shame them all.
I mean, it's still bonkers. We see it for what it is - rewarding loyalists and the cost of everyone else.
Not to them, the only thank yous that count to them are the ones made TO THEM.
Make November 11 a national holiday. A day off to head to the polls. Hand out fried chicken when you show your "I VOTED" sticker!
EVERYTHING TRUMP TOUCHES DIES

True. Another litmus - who has seen Just Dance Vance...?
DHS told us it couldn’t produce records we requested because it “no longer maintained” texts. Then it tried to backtrack. We’re demanding immediate action: preserve all texts, recover missing records, and stop any further destruction of federal records. americanoversight.org/american-ove...
Please call your CA Assemblymember today and ask them to vote for SB 79, which faces a critical vote. The reason we ask you to do this is because it works. findyourrep.legislature.ca.gov
A proposal to censor info about lawmakers is being sold as a safety bill. But it won’t protect them from anything but investigative reporting. Contact your senator to tell them to scrap the bill and protect their safety — and everyone else’s — without sacrificing transparency and accountability.
The country is NOT a private business. He does NOT get that power, because he is an employee of The People. We need to fire this bozo.

And the streets that end at the Strøget are full of bicycle parking!
Agree. "Protecting.." is vague. Point to something defined and implementable. The DO IT ffs
Dear Americans, welcome to the thrilling game of ‘Did this dictator die or just disappear for a day?’ We’ve been playing it with Putin and Lukashenko for decades. Enjoy the suspense.

I was in a dance troupe before enlisting. During Basic, I was tasked to teach a group struggling to learn/pass the task of clearing an M16. I broke the overall task down into 3 parts of 3 steps each, and trained them like learning a choreography routine.
I look forward to her cosplay game, when her head is being shaved for abetting the treasonous felon
This is a good idea. A great idea, in fact.
I have, don't miss either one of them much. Spending less, too, since Instagram has become nothing but an ad server.
All dystopian roads lead to Peter Thiel. All of them.
As you get ready for Labor Day weekend, remember to thank a union.
Make Trump pay it from the emoluments he's grifted since he took office.
This crime at Social Security might amount to the biggest data theft in human history. Committed by a government against its own citizens. I don’t think anyone has begun to grasp the sheer scale of corruption and institutional destruction that has occurred in the last few months. Era-defining.
“Over the past 20 years, Paris has undergone a major physical transformation, trading automotive arteries for bike lanes, adding green spaces and eliminating 50,000 parking spaces. Part of the payoff has been invisible — in the air itself.” Leadership, strategy, real action, common sense. #Paris
FEMA for man-made gun violence disasters, but not for climate change inducted regional disasters. This entire administration is a disaster.
Its a prerequisite
Disbarment!! Lets get that complaint stream flowing!

Starbucks CEO pay: $96 MILLION Starbucks worker pay: $15,000 Coca-Cola CEO pay: $28 MILLION Coca-Cola worker pay: $14,000 CEOs used to make like 20x the average worker. In 2024, the average CEO earned 632x more. The system is rigged.
Remember when the GOP was the pro-fiscal responsibility, pro-Constitution, pro-rule of law, pro-states rights, pro-free trade, pro-free markets, anti-communist, anti-Russia, pro-strong US party? No, neither do I. But, that was their line for a long time and they've flipped on every element of it.
Three Democrats on Pennsylvania's Supreme Court, which oversees cases about voting, redistricting, and election disputes, are up for election this fall. Given the implications, it makes sense why right-wing billionaires are trying to buy this election.
This, however, is an insightful look at how we got here: (The book, not the AI summary) www.powells.com/book/jesus-a...
As a former Federal LEO, I'm trying to get the word out. Federal LEO do not have badge numbers. They carry credentials, so when folks ask for a badge number, they rightly won't provide one. Ask to see their credentials, and they are required to show you. It's a photo ID and an employee ID number.

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.”
She is a tool of Putin.
How low the groveling goes...
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.

Hyper important message for Federal workers who may have, hypothetically, been placed on leave recently. The calls are coming. If your state is one party consent, record the call. If you're unsure, take copious notes: date, time on/off, names etc. C.Y.A. in full effect.
The NRA should be sued by every community affected by rampant gun violence.
The priorities of the press remain focused on protecting the financial interests of the few, over the basic human dignity of everyone else.
Will the 'comprehensive plan' include the arrest of pedophiles? Underage victim sex trafficking?
Trump's approval rates are very much tied to people emotionally rejecting any admission of error in their own judgment. "I voted for this, so uh, sure, I'm fine with it."

Seems you think authoritarian living is just fine. For you, probably is. Good luck with that.

Fascism by class/demographic is definitely real.
DHS & FEMA have chosen the vengeance route against the public signatories of the FEMA Katrina Letter. Effective immediately, all public signatories have been placed on administrative leave. They have also been ordered not to tell anyone. Whistleblowers are to be protected, not retaliated against.

The United States Federal government belongs to and is staffed by the American people. When an agency or department breaks the law or fails to live up to its mission & mandate, it is incumbent upon those who know to tell the American people of the dangers these failures pose.
"You need to take your head out of Trump's ass" is what needs to be said to EVERY Republican politician, at all levels - city, state and federal
Yup. NG pays a stipend, and their day jobs aren't paying them to not be there. Their jobs will NOT wait patiently, even with the protection to not be replaced when deployed.
The greatest illusion of modern society is that freedom is purely individualistic, when in reality, our freedom is deeply interconnected with the well-being of everyone.
For the folks thinking "this can't be fascism, my days are just like always" - its going to hit you HARD. At least the rest of us are bracing for it.
And racism. And misogyny. They voted for that, too.
Stupid is what got them there. Don't expect that to change.
His rationalization being they carried the same lipstick as adults, riiiight
Day one of his entire life, most likely.
War fighters who had to leave their regular jobs in a lurch, and likely have long commutes to spend their days walking around like tourists. Tourists tasked with picking up trash.

Every org has its a&&kissers. The US government is not exempt.
Just after SCOTUS granted it access to Social Security, DOGE uploaded a database containing the private information of hundreds of millions of Americans to an unsecure cloud. DOGE isn't fighting fraud — it's potentially exposing Americans to more of it. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/26/u...
Malicious Incompetence

Not just the president. Every single ghoul who is enabling him.
Corrupt Trump is paying back his billionaire campaign donors with government contracts, dropped lawsuits, and a dismantling of watchdog agencies that work to hold their businesses to account for wrongdoing. Every move he makes is to enrich himself and his billionaire buddies.
The person who killed those two couldn't know either way, so they might have thought they were ICE. The fact that they weren't should really INCREASE these incidents because now we KNOW there are criminals passing themselves off as.. the criminals that ICE are.

Yup. They both fired, not clear who first. 20-some rounds exchanged, it seems.
Funny how its the woman CEO who gets punished*. *Rightfully so, but SO SHOULD THE MALE CEOS COMMITTING FRAUD
Trump's EOs are just toilet paper he smears his rank thoughts on.
