Republicans are trying to redraw congressional district lines to keep their grip on Congress in the midterms and beyond. Voters should pick their politicians, not the other way around. Get involved with the @democraticredistricting.com as they fight back: bit.ly/3HJ1ayW
Sometimes red paint can get you 14 years. Sometimes it is tolerated. When did intimidating your neighbours become acceptable? | Prof Richard Murphy

REALLY AMERICAN Governor Greg Abbott say Democrats are to blame for Texas' crumbling economy, high crime, and crumbling schools. But Texas' governor, attorney general, House majority, Senate majority, and ENTIRE state Supreme Court is Republican. So...? 🤔
The lack of humanity and decency in some people is extremely disturbing.
This is male violence.
As a journalist, I have long relied on government agencies for statistics and other accurate information. From AIDS to COVID and now measles and bird flu, I have turned to NIH, CDC, FDA and other federal agencies for professionally researched, science-based facts. I trust Dr. Susan Monarez.
Watch. If you claim one of these to get a vaccine, they’ll use it later as a preexisting condition to crank up your health premium or kick you off your plan.
RFK Jr. will testify before a Senate panel next week. The Finance Committee hearing was in the works before Wednesday’s CDC shakeup.
"It's all part and parcel with how Adams has governed: His commitments to build bike lanes and bus lanes are only good until someone with money and influence says otherwise — then all bets are off."
!!!!
Now, only people >=65 + people with an underlying med condition are eligible. “Without FDA approval ... insurance companies might not cover the cost [of the COVID-19 vaccine], potentially leaving people to pay out of pocket or unable to get vaccinated at all,” Dr. Oni Blackstock...told HuffPost.
A very strong & powerful resignation letter from Dr. Daskalakis calling out RFK jr. “I am unable to serve in an environment that treats CDC as a tool to generate policies and materials that do not reflect scientific reality and are designed to hurt rather than to improve the public’s health.”
Evidently more
I don’t write to soothe. I write to force a choice. To push people to stay and fight...or run away. To spark anger...courage...and conviction. Neutrality is surrender...and in this fight...you either stand up for democracy or you enable its destruction. There. Is. No. Middle. Ground.
J: Whats the leading cause of death among children in this country? Give you a hint, it's not drag show readings to children. Him: I'm presuming you're going to say it's firearms. Jon: No I'm not going to say it like it's an opinion, that's what it is. It's firearms. www.youtube.com/watch?v=tCuI...
BREAKING: Bernie Sanders just demanded a special Senate committee hearing on the crisis at the CDC, making RFK Jr testify under oath on the disaster he's created. Go Bernie!

The new shots from Pfizer, Moderna and Novavax are approved for all seniors. But the Food and Drug Administration narrowed their use for younger adults and children to those with at least one high-risk health condition, such as asthma or obesity.
Is he sane?
He always has made things up because he is fucking delusional
RFK Jr. will kill Americans, sure as death. You have the GOP to thank you for that.
In many places in America, it's easier to buy a gun than it is to adopt a cat from a shelter.
RACISTS LOVE KINDRED CLONES STOP NAZI VANILLA ISIS
We are the only developed country where mass shootings happen on a regular basis. It doesn’t have to be this way.

What a maniacal, narcissistic goof. He wants to hide scientific data, so he can try to frame his weird conspiracy theories in a better light. His brain is addled from 15 years of heroin use. These incompetent losers are trying to turn reality into a John Saul novel. www.nature.com/articles/d41...
I do not understand why government officials resign when asked to do something bad. The resignations will no longer be treated by the public like a scandal. It’ll be out of the news within 24 hours. People should stay and force the White House to fire them. Do not make it easy.
The national news will move on, but Minnesota will not.
BREAKING: Robert F. Kennedy Jr poised to surpass gun violence as leading cause of death among American children.
GRAB HIM BY THE EPSTEIN FILES! Have you enjoyed seeing Americans holding signs like that on overpasses this year? Meet the people behind it all.
Zero fucks for any of the DOGE jerkoffs getting used for target practice
Firing RFK Jr would unburden a lot of overworked mitochondria in this country
Seems like a great time to repost ….
Mark this day as the death of expertise at the CDC. All we have between us and the next pandemic are a bunch of horse paste eating conspiracy loons.

“Mitochondrial challenges”, folks. Thank you for you attention to this matter.
This is an excellent piece by @stevevladeck.bsky.social. Not only does he lay out the case in a way that's easy to understand, but he talks about why the Trump administration feels like it can improperly run straight to SCOTUS. Definitely worth the read.
Never forget, the worst fate this man can imagine for a child is to be autistic and/or fat. That's what he means. He's not crazy, he's evil.
If the Democratic Party intends to win this fight, it must stop functioning solely as a party & instead step into its moment in history: to lead a pro-democracy movement capable of confronting this authoritarian threat. https://www.lincolnsquare.media/p/stand-up-america-the-time-for-a-pro?r=2lckc
This was Ashley Babbitt Yes she was shot killed trying to break into capitol build hang VP Pence Pos murder speaker Nancy Pelosi, She Betrayed her Oath & Disgraced her uniform, Air Force Needs to refuse given her honors of any kind,,I cut her out out of respect for the Dead but maybe i shouldn'tof
Lynx coach Cheryl Reeve on the Minnesota shooting: "The sad thing is we can't sit here and tell them that help is on the way. Because we're not going to do a damn thing about it."
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...
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.
“When marines are deployed in our cities, not for war, but to aid ICE against the people, ask yourself: Who is the enemy? And who’s next?”

Just admit it: You love your guns more than your children. The first step is acknowledging the problem.

In another instalment of: “Didn’t Age Well” This video was deleted from Twitter. So you know what to do. 😏
Yes, it should. However, that would require an effective mainstream media in America — which we don’t currently have.
The de minimis exemption, which allowed imported packages worth less than $800 to enter the U.S. without facing any duties, will end for all countries on August 29.
Frey: I think the impetus has to be on all of us to recognize that we've got more guns in this country than we have people, and it's on all of us to recognize the truth and the reality that we can't just say that this shouldn't happen again, and then allow it to happen again and again
Orange monkey.
i find this image so fascinating. it is both a literal example of authoritarianism but also a second-hand reproduction of the aesthetics of other authoritarian states. it's like a simulacra of authoritarianism whose purpose is to attempt to make the simulacra real.
We have sunk lower than low.
Trump announces pre-midterm GOP plan that 'has never been done before'
Frey: "We need an assault weapons ban nationwide. We need to have a high capacity magazine ban. And if the federal govt and states aren't gonna act, give us the ability to protect our constituents. Give mayors & council members the ability to protect in Mpls 435,000 residents that call Mpls home."
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.
A reporter breaks down on air.
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.
These creatures are not even human, and have no decency.
RFK, Jr., Demanded Vaccine Study Be Retracted—Journal Said No Secretary of Health and Human Services Kennedy, called for a paper that found no link between aluminum in vaccines and disease to be retracted. The journal rejected the request. apple.news/AXMJankaHQBW...
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.
Shuler: They want to convince people that we are each other’s enemies—that we need to fight one another to land a good job, to find a home in a safe neighborhood, that only so many of us can live with dignity at the same time. But we are not each other’s enemies. We are each other’s neighbors

The dissent letter contained six “statements of opposition” to current policies at FEMA, including an expenditure approval policy by which Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem must approve contracts exceeding $100,000, which the signatories said reduces FEMA’s ability to perform its mission.

This interview, which is also available to listen to as a podcast, provides a useful overview of some of the dangerous trends we’ve been seeing in recent months regarding federalization and militarization of state and local police functions.
The Trump administration again petitioned the Supreme Court to block the use of billions in foreign aid. The administration urged the justices to overturn a lower court order that requires the government to spend the funds already appropriated by Congress.
Subway will limit the size of their sandwiches before Congress limits the bullets in magazines.
This nightmare shit is not going away, it’s going to get WORSE. We are going to have to grapple with the fact that underneath mainstream political divisiveness there are young people online radicalizing themselves into ideologies with no motive beyond violent accelerationism.
Sooooooo. Gloria Gaynor bought her Kennedy Honor.
Bet her career doesn’t survive this.
Imagine thinking your "personal freedoms" are worth more than a child's life. Imagine fighting for emotionally unstable 20 something male civilians to have easy access to weapons designed to kill lots of ppl, really fast. Imagine enabling the next mass shooter, while calling yourself "Christian"
As our recent report Decades of Deceit illustrates, fossil fuel companies cannot be trusted to do the right thing. "Just as the US needs laws to protect public health, it needs to be able to enforce laws when corporations knowingly cause harm," writes UCS's Kathy Mulvey.
Public outrage grows as Republicans ignore gun violence, spotlighted by a Minneapolis mass shooting killing children and injuring many. Critics also fault Trump for inaction on gun control, prioritizing other political issues over urgent safety reforms. www.rawstory.com/mass-shootin...

When children are killed in school, Republicans make gun ownership *easier*. When disease kills and gives major long-term sequelae, Trump limits and even plans to ban vaccines. This is a culling.
