Yes, RFK Jr is a monster. A cruel, ignorant, pathologically dishonest, conspiratorial monster. And it’s not surprising RFK Jr is where he is now. A cruel, ignorant, pathologically dishonest, conspiratorial monster chose him, nominated him. Vote in 2026 like your life depends upon it. Bcuz it does.
RFK Jr: It's gonna be the biggest infusion of federal dollar into rural healthcare in American history BERNIE SANDERS: Yeah. You know why? Because you're cutting $150b for rural hospitals, you're putting $50b back. That's not an infusion. That's a loss of $100b.
We are in big trouble and entering dark times.
Yep. Looks right.
It's Time to Release the Epstein Files. People who fight this hard to hide something have something to hide. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...
Nigel Farage looks uncomfortable as Jamie Raskin uses his opening statement to absolutely demolish him
Epstein accusers put pressure on Congress to release the files Reps. Thomas Massie and Ro Khanna say they need just two more Republicans to force a vote. But the White House and GOP leaders are frantically working to quash the rebellion.
Kristi Noem literally attacked CBS for not airing her *false* claims about Abrego Garcia. If this continues, journos should state plainly that they're not in the business of amplifying MAGA lies and smears, and any official who expects them to can stuff it. New piece newrepublic.com/article/1998...
Good morning to you 🌞 from the Southern Coast on the
And I share it!
Pritzker: "It breaks my heart to report that we have been told ICE will try to disrupt community picnics and peaceful parades. Let's be clear -- the terror and cruelty is the point, not the safety of anybody living here."
It's being reported that the Pentagon is authorizing military lawyers to serve as immigration judges. This is a threat to the Constitution. Don't say we didn't warn you. From the archives:
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.
US sliding towards 1930s-style autocracy, warns Ray Dalio Billionaire hedge fund boss says other investors are too scared of Trump to speak out www.ft.com/content/b86b...
Troops in the streets and he thinks he’s going to get a Nobel, peace begins at home
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
This is my 95-year-old neighbor. He's been living alone since his wife passed away from cancer, and not long ago, he also lost his loyal companion dog. Now, every day, our chicken Hei Hei escapes the yard just to visit him. She sits with him, accepts treats, and lets him pet her like an old
"That is why I am infuriated that the Air Force plans to grant military funeral honors to Ashli Babbitt. She did not die defending the Constitution. She died trying to overturn it." Yes, there is a difference.
Roger Marshall (R-KS) Bill Cassidy (R-LA) Rand Paul (R-KY) John Barrasso (R-WY) These doctors voted for RFK Jr., swimmer in poop, with his grandchildren, the former 14 year heroin addict, sexual abuser, to become the Secretary of Health and Human Services.
Trump putting an election denier in charge of elections is like hiring a bank robber to guard the vault. We see you, Donnie.
A federal judge has ordered Florida to shut down "Alligator Alcatraz," after the state spent a staggering $218M to build the now-vacant detention camp. Closing it will run taxpayers another $20M. An utterly cruel and costly waste.
The phone number for the U.S. Capitol switchboard is (202) 224-3121.
SSA data chief says he was forced out after warning that DOGE uploaded hundreds of millions of Americans’ personal data to a vulnerable cloud. His resignation cites constructive discharge, a culture of fear, and new leaders ignoring privacy safeguards.
The fun would be watching Chump's reaction to it. 🤯 #ReleaseTheEPSTEIN_Files
The clearing of the rubble in a Kyiv high-rise house bombed by russia — which claimed 25 lives — has just ended, and already a new swarm of russian drones fills our skies, with Tu jets preparing for takeoff and the launch of cruise missiles. This is a never-ending 9/11.
This is truly one of the best illustrations of what is happening in America.
The next days and months and years will demand from all of us great courage — and solidarity. Be prepared.
I hope people realize how absolutely fucked this situation is. This isn’t normal. People are resigning all over the place because the government is mishandling our data, ruining our public health services, and generally making Americans less safe.
When a president decides to disregard the will of the American people, you’re right, that’s the mark of authoritarian rule. The White House has notified Congress that it plans to cancel $4.9 billion in foreign aid funding that lawmakers had already approved, doing so without their consent.
Trump's approval ratings are tanking. He hasn't done squat to help working people. The Epstein scandal haunts him. He's a tyrant with his back against the wall, so he and his cronies are rigging elections in Texas. Understand what's going on here.
You’re saying that telling your constituents they don’t need healthcare because they’re gonna die anyway isn’t winning politics?
Learn to decipher the codespeak.
Welch: Everybody's missing the point here. The point is, he's doing this on purpose. He's priming the public to get accustomed to having the military in the streets
Don’t look away
Kellogg was sidelined specifically because he’s a better negotiator. They aren’t actually trying to end this war.
The party of “freedom”
Reminder that the US Trump regime conspired to over throw Ukrainian President Zelenskyy, a direct attack on democracy in Ukraine and worldwide.
Welch: He claims that he's the law and order president. But we all know that's a lie because he's a convicted felon. He pardons convicted felons, he surrounds himself with obsequious people that kiss his all day, every day
Between RFK decimating the CDC, normalizing Ashli Babbitt & the umpteenth school shooting... I'm losing the will to post. #ReleaseTheEPSTEIN_Files
Love thy neighbor.
What a cursed sentence (gift link) “The A.I. companies selected to oversee the program would have a strong financial incentive to deny claims. Medicare plans to pay them a share of the savings generated from rejections.”
You think we weren’t prepared for the last pandemic ….
The newly ousted director of the CDC refused to fire top agency leaders or approve changes to vaccines from RFK Jr.’s hand-picked panel of advisers.
If someone tells you there's nothing we can do about gun violence beyond thoughts and prayers, remind them: —Gun laws in other countries have prevented mass shootings —More guns don't make us safer —A majority of Americans want gun reform We don't have to live like this.
It's the guns. Stupid!
Ashley Babbit dishonored her service by committing insurrection against her country. While her death is absolutely tragic and I wish it hadn’t happened, the Air Force giving her honors is in itself a dishonor.
It’s outrageous that Sec. Kennedy is trying to fire the CDC Director — after only a few weeks on the job — for her commitment to public health & vaccines. The Sen. HELP Committee must hold a hearing with Kennedy & the CDC Director as soon as possible. Vaccines save lives. Period.
The FEMA situation is bad for all of us. Please pay attention. Please sign and support FEMA employees if you have not already.
Attempting to rig elections on his behalf. Turning the military on citizens. Toying with the idea of declaring martial law. Attacking political enemies and punishing those who speak out against his regime. If this were happening in another country, what would you call it?
"Some people want a dictator," said no one that didn't want to be a dictator.
Whew! Sen. Susan Collins should be “very concerned” She showed up as the main guest at a ribbon-cutting in Searsport, Maine. It backfired. The crowd was not happy to have her: “Shame. Shame. Shame.”
"I will judge Bolton when I see what allegations emerge from this investigation, if any, and when I can evaluate the evidence in support of those allegations. But I don’t need to wait that long to judge the FBI’s conduct."
Tesla rejected $60 million settlement in Autopilot case that ultimately cost it 4 times that amount
Daniil Medvedev after a loss at the US Open. Another grown man throwing a tantrum like he's a 3yo toddler. Ffs, mate. Do the world a favour—get off the court and stay off.
Dear journalists: The President has not fired Lisa Cook. The President is *trying* to illegally fire her. Your words shape people’s reality. Please be accurate in your reporting.
"Most Democratic officials that I spoke with last week said that the fact that Republicans were already acting anxious and attempting to blame this problem on past Democratic administrations was a sign that Democrats had landed on a winning issue."
A delighted reminder that if you don't want people celebrating your death, don't be a huge piece of shit.

"Crime is lower in D.C. than it is in the Republican-led states these National Guard troops are leaving..." www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...
Absolutely disgraceful and despicable. If you are a partner at Paul Weiss or Kirkland & Ellis you should be ashamed of yourself -- that is, if you had any shame left.
Lock up Ghislaine. Free Rep. Nicole Collier. Release the Epstein files.
Dear Smithsonian.......send your historical records to Canada before they're destroyed.
This would seem like a big affront to Trump and the United States. Will the America First president react to Putin's provocation? www.ft.com/content/7b59...

I find this delightful.
Just now…
Lots of pictures and stories of Trump with renowned pedophile Epstein. Here’s a timeline to put it all in context: https://edition.cnn.com/2025/08/12/politics/trump-epstein-relationship-timeline-invs-vis
Government can't do much to make us choose healthier personal habits. It can, however, greatly assist in prevention and treatment of infectious diseases, promote research on new drugs, and fund scientific studies. RFK Jr. is interested in one of those.
Is it just I but it seems to me we’ve drifted quite a bit from Thomas Jefferson’s word in the Declaration: “Governments are instituted among men, and derive their just powers from the consent of the governed.” Very few of the governed seem to be consenting to what’s going on these days!

Unsurprisingly, @mattgertz.bsky.social has one of the best summaries of the Smartmatic Fox News disclosures. www.mediamatters.org/fox-news/eig...
"a large portion of those comments suggested that the marshals direct their crime-fighting efforts toward Congress or the White House..." www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...
The United States could have great things like this. But we like to spend our money on kidnapping people and trafficking them to concentration camps instead. #Priorities
BREAKING: Vladimir Putin is pushing to meet Zelensky in Moscow and Zelensky has obviously turned this down. Why would Zelensky meet Putin in the country that wants him killed? This is all a big joke to Putin. He has no plans on stopping. He has no plans for peace.
Newsom trollin’ #TACO 🌮 is SO DAMN HILARIOUS 🤣🤣🤣🤣
America is finally healthy again
I don't know who needs to hear this, but an economy controlled by a handful of oligarchs isn't a "free market."
Meet the Maine oyster farmer looking to challenge Sen. Susan Collins.
Mortified that the leadership of... Europe... has to come here b/c we couldn't bother to hire a competent woman for the job & instead re-hired a child rapist insurrectionist felon who happens to be Putin's little lap bitch. What Zelenskyy must sit through is now our eternal shame. #SlavaUkraini 🌻

I’ve always been a big 2nd Amendment guy bcuz I fear government tyranny. I fear masked & armed government agents taking to our streets against the people. So how come all my fellow 2nd Amendment guys, who said they too feared government tyranny, are now happily on the side of the government tyranny?
Breaking WaPo: DHS Secretary Kristi Noem is living for free in a military home typically reserved for the U.S. Coast Guard's top admiral. The highly unusual arrangement has raised concern from officials, who describe it as a waste of military resources. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
@sonofnoone.bsky.social
But then how could they use it as a distraction from the Epstein thing? God, Americans are fools.
