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.

The convicted felon, fraud, adjudicated, rapist, and accused. Pedophile said the trade deficit has been cut in half. FACT The trade defict has increased by 50% in the first five months of this year. Why doesn’t the press fact check this bold face lie?
This is, of course, false. The United States exported $83 billion in goods and services to India last year alone.

Beef prices have hit record highs this Labor Day Weekend — in part thanks to Trump's tariffs. Remember when Trump said he would bring down the cost of groceries? https://youtu.be/9EXi6xyOXSk?feature=shared
@reed.senate.gov @whitehouse.senate.gov can we do this for RI, please?

Oh no Don’t trust the scholars Scholars are more religion and not science Just joking, of course it’s a genocide
I live in Europe now, my job brought me here. Talking with countless people, not one person wants to come and visit the US. Im not talking about immigration, but tourists. These people have money and they are going to spend it elsewhere. Anywhere but the US. When do we start winning?
Tourism to US has been severely reduced with huge financial loss due to trump idiocy. #ProudBlue www.yahoo.com/news/article...
This Labor Day, never forget: the sitting President said we have "too many non-working holidays." Happy Labor Day, workers.✊
J.B. Pritzker is 100% right. Please listen to him, pay attention, and join us in speaking out against authoritarianism and to protect free and fair elections.
Public safety in California is on the rise. Last year, California had the second-lowest homicide rate since at least 1966, decreasing by nearly 12% overall since 2023. We're going to drive that progress forward up and down the state.

Where is the mainsteam media? Anyone out there? Can you hear me???
Love Russian thugs intimidating our dear leader in public now.
He won’t let the press anywhere near him. This is getting weirder and weirder.
The only people that should legitimately like this are our enemies. I mean WTF voted for this abomination? “The CDC you knew is over” 🤬🖕 RFK Jr.’s damage to the CDC is ‘past the point of no return,’ www.advocate.com/politics/dem...
It would be cool if businesses and people in that area started repainting their…. Private driveways and private parking lots with rainbows 🌈 Just an idea
Republicans: “Stop making everything about race.” Really? White people enslaved Black people for generations, stole Native land, lynched and segregated us, burned down Black communities that thrived, and treated Mexican land & labor like property to be taken. America already made it about race.
Maybe we should all chip in and get the entire elected republican party tickets to Hamilton.
One of the best. Classic 80s. Brings back childhood memories.
So the photos we get of the “golf outing” today is a pale and feeble looking one of him getting to a car at the WH and this one of him returning. Nothing from the course.
If this is the “strong leader” they keep selling us, why are they hiding him like Weekend at Bernie’s? 👀
POPE LEO: “Let us plead God to stop the pandemic of arms, large and small, which infects our world.” He prays for the victims in Minneapolis, and “the countless children killed and injured every day around the world”

An upcoming news conference with victims of Jeffrey Epstein could be “explosive,” one of the congressmen pushing for full release of the files on Epstein predicts. Democratic Rep. Ro Khanna said the victims’ accounts will force lawmakers to vote on a bill requiring DOJ to release its files.
Pritzker: "We want more help—civilian law enforcement help. We would like ATF agents to help us take more guns off the street. We would like FBI to coordinate with local law enforcement to help catch perpetrators. If they do that, we'd welcome it. That's not what they're doing."

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...
They loaded up those planes with children - some as young as 10. I don’t believe they had a safe place to go in Guatemala. And the government did not care. This admin is the least compassionate of any in my lifetime.
Pritzker: "No one in the administration -- the president or anybody under him -- has called anyone in my administration or me. It's clear that in secret they're are planning this invasion with US troops."
New Mexico has issued a public health order that removes federal restrictions to COVID-19 vaccine access so that pharmacies in New Mexico can vaccinate people of all ages and risk profiles. Every state need to do this!
The President of Portugal Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa called the orange felon a Russian asset in a live televised speech. Well done, this is how you do it. 👏
Im not saying this as a misogynist, but Jill Stein is a straight up bitch.
Jill Stein and Cornel West both disgust me — such goddamn, self-serving hypocrites.

Labor has always been on the frontlines in the fight against fascism – and today is no different. Unions are fighting Trump’s cruel agenda in the courts and in the streets, and workers across industries are standing up for each other. There’s courage – and hope – in solidarity.
Child murderer and his buddies 🤮
RFK Jr. appeared on Fox News and boasted that he could diagnose children with “mitochondrial challenges” by walking past them at a distance in airports. (Kennedy has no professional background in medicine or science.)
Yeah Im not expecting a politician to be a legal scholar. But they should have a basic understanding, at least HS civics level, of how our government works and the basics of the legal system. Especially at the level of governor.
Watch the Great on Hulu. You will never stop saying it. KIzzah!
Great to meet you, JP! Always a pleasure to meet a teacher here in Illinois. Good luck during the school year!
Just saying.
Five years ago I was a lot more inclined to believe that we could just remove the incumbents from power and build a better world around them. I'm afraid I am now much more of the opinion that if they do not learn the price is too high, they will just come back stronger.
"Trump is showing, with this insane rant, that he fully intends to maximally abuse presidential powers in every way possible to try to rig and swing the midterms. It’s not an accident that this is all happening while he’s militarizing cities." trib.al/8vnBGIq
SHOCKED 😳 NOT😉
Mark Twain said it best: “Never argue with stupid people; they’ll drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.” Now you know why the experts are walking out of the CDC.
"Perhaps the most important thing to understand about Trump’s mobster state capitalism is that it isn’t about economic efficiency or stimulating growth, let alone a vision of how the economy works and what it should create. It’s about *power*, pure and simple."
I wonder how Chump will try to distract from this. Invade Chicago probably. Let Fox cover Chicago. Everyone else pay respect to the victims.
🚨Children🚨Killed by🚨ICE Say their names. Their lives mattered and their deaths were govt. sanctioned murders. 1/2
Compassion and empathy are the way of Jesus.
Make no mistake: when Congress reconvenes next week, Mike Johnson’s mission will be to shield the Epstein files from the public.
Only the judicial system can find guilt and impose a penalty if found guilty. Law enforcement arrest people they believe committed a crime. Prosecutors decide if they will be charged & PROSECUTE. The person charged has the right to a defense. A Judge/jury decide guilt. @theromanoreport.bsky.social

This “explicit” is a weird editorial choice. The constitution gives the president no power over this at all. It’s not ambiguous.
The only real downside to living overseas is the inability to watch most sporting events live. Watching it the next day or just the highlights loses something in the experience.

Remove RFK Jr for dereliction of duties. Immediately.
Imagine being this hateful. Florida should spend more money on its education system and less on trying to marginalize those who are marginalized.
Good morning 🦋💙🦋😂😂😂
Media should hound him at least half as much as they hounded Biden. But they won’t.

Gavin Newsom has ended 186 wars, including 36 wars that haven’t even started yet. He was offered the Nobel Peace Prize but he turned it down because the job isn’t finished yet. 😂
The republican party is the party of hatred. Prove me wrong.
Dead, alive, hiding — doesn’t matter. Release the Epstein files.
MAGA only considers MAGA to be "real" Americans. The rest of us are scum. When they run out of immigrants and trans to persecute they will come for us next. Fascism/dictatorships require a boogeyman to save the supporters from. They will find a new boogeyman, and it will be you.
