Netflix just gave Gavin Newsom 2 million for the redistricting fight and made a deal with Sesame Street. New episodes will air there and the backlog of old episodes will Be free to watch. Netflix picked a side. I will keep my subscription.

"January 6 survivor and former MPD Officer Michael Fanone launches a campaign demanding that federal officers remove their masks, advocating for transparency." Check out our new D.C. campaign demanding federal agents take off their mask! @ofthebraveusa.bsky.social www.wusa9.com/article/news...
Massive walkout underway at CDC. RFK jr. must resign so that we can be safe.
Remember when COVID vaccines were first available? Remember how they saved lives and helped us move toward normalcy? Remember how relieved and grateful we were? Remember how amazing our healthcare workers were? Remember how science rescued us?
Yep. He wanted Ukraine to surrender. Still does. Doesn’t matter that for us, it means silent death in occupation. The only thing that matters is that he can stop hearing about Ukraine.
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
Hurts my heart 😓GTFO already!

For all the dog lovers. This is a classic. Worth seeing again.
AMEN! L💙VE Pritzker!!! There should be merch: Be a Pritzker 👊
The study, pub in Annals of Int Med, is one of the largest, looking at 1.2 million children born over more than 2 decades in Denmark. They found no significant risk of developing autoimmune, allergic or neurodevelopmental disorders was associated with exposure to aluminium compounds in vaccines.
I know you, Chicago — and I know you’re up to the difficult time we have ahead, thanks to this President.
Mt pleasant is a DC neighborhood- and I still can’t get over the dork brigade, what are these nerds wearing?!? Everyone needs to feel tough after they were picked on in elementary school? WTAF
They will get it back 10fold…they’re proud now, they will fall, hard! You’re too good for that nonsense, they’re trash 🗑️
Never forget. Helping build the Illinois Holocaust Museum was one of the most meaningful experiences of my life. The lessons we can learn from survivors like Sam are too relevant today — and why the Satellite Campus we're opening is a reminder of our responsibility to speak up.
The State of Illinois at this time has received no requests or outreach from the federal government asking if we need assistance, and we have made no requests for federal intervention.
I love you @govpritzker.illinois.gov !! “Tell it like it is!!” 👏👏🙌
So pretty 😍and calming. L💙VE Chicago!!
I remember watching a group of “bubbies” ( grandmoms ) reciting the felon’s talk track verbatim and I was absolutely perplexed 😕 how are they feeling now- Florida’s a cesspool at this point
But…all of those Jewish Floridians who voted for this…🤨
Beautiful ✨Thank you for sharing 💙💛🌻🇺🇦we love you
⭐️🇺🇦 Today Kharkiv celebrates City Day! In honor of this, for the first time since 2022, Sumska Street was opened and the starry sky was “lit up” 🤩
Did you know that soldiers have constitutional protection to NOT obey orders that violate their oath to the Constitution? A group is working to educate soldiers in advance of the possibility of martial law. Learn how you can get involved in this webinar: 📅 8/24 ⏰ 5 - 6:15pm ET 📍 bit.ly/oath0824
I wish I had thought of it first.
😆 🔥 some beautiful, creative resistance
Love you! 🥰
What’s with the sorority of girls as ICE agents? How sick and twisted do you have to be. Pond scum.
Unfortunately, Bluesky is unavailable in Mississippi right now, due to a new state law that requires age verification for all users. While intended for child safety, we think this law poses broader challenges & creates significant barriers that limit free speech & harm smaller platforms like ours.
No injuries! No one was hurt
🙏🙏🙏In the middle of welcome mass for students- it was a terrible HOAX

Collier: I refused to sign and so I was told that I was gonna have to stay here on the floor. They have locked the doors. The sergeants have been instructed not to allow me to leave until I have a permission slip.

Love him live him! He was a stand up comedian before this…🇺🇦
This wasn’t just a security breach, documents obtained by NPR from a hotel guest who found them on a printer revealed something even more disturbing: a planned luncheon in honor of Vladimir Putin. The menu literally read, “In honor of his excellency Vladimir Putin.”
Late last night I mapped crime rates for cities in OH, SC and WV to show how often they exceeded the rate in DC — where those states’ governors are sending National Guard troops to “combat crime.” www.pbump.net/o/more-peopl...
Key European leaders rallying around Zelensky, traveling with him to DC, is what leadership looks like.
Show some love to @standupalaska.bsky.social for welcoming Trump and Putin to Alaska.
NEW: Judge Reyes has called a 2pm hearing on D.C.'s emergency bid to reclaim control of its police department. A restraining order could be in place within hours. w Nicole Markus www.politico.com/news/2025/08...
I want every blue state to do what Gavin Newsom is doing. Give the GOP no quarter. 
Amazing! My heart hurts - so happy to see 🥹💛💙🇺🇦stay safe out there!!
ANCHORAGE…

Can I Get A “Hell Yeah?” 😉😉😉
Stay safe. Stay strong. Love you, DC…
Last night in D.C.
That’s right DC!! You show them!!! 👊LOVE you, 14th st…pleeeeeease, are they looking for the latest hip and trendy restaurant?! Mother f🤬🤬kers! Proud of you 🥹
Gun laws anyone? Doing a fantastic job, bondi, puppy killer and felon
A temporary win! A federal judge in California has sided with a group of states, issuing an order that temporarily stops the Department of Health and Human Services from providing Medicaid recipient data to the Department of Homeland Security for immigration enforcement purposes.
Since we passed the Affordable Care Act, Republicans have tried over and over to repeal it. And over and over, they’ve failed — in part because millions of people now depend on the ACA for quality, affordable health care.
Now Republicans are trying something different: quietly weakening the law and hoping you won’t notice. We can’t let them. It’s up to all of us to vote for leaders in every election who will make our healthcare system better, not undermine it. Call your member of Congress and hold them accountable.
@freedcproject.bsky.social is holding a rally to protest Trump’s plans to take federal control of the police department. If you’re in the area and able to join, please do! Follow them on Bluesky to stay updated on future events.

🚨🚨🚨 “D.C. Belongs to Us!” Damn right it does.
I LOVE YOU DC! Stay strong, you’re beautiful and always will be 💙

He just doesn’t like driving by them, they’re beneath him like the rest of us, of course. Count how many are homeless on DC, I can promise it’s less than the number of bs guards he’s bringing. Sickening.
STFU, RFK Jr, you ridiculous idiot. You don't care about the wellbeing of patients. You care about politics. You are actively undermining doctors' ability to protect their patients from measles and COVID. Your party forces women who have miscarried to bleed out in parking lots over your politics.
Stephen Colbert is going SCORCHED EARTH right now. To RFK Jr: “Fuck you, you roid-addled nepo carnie! Fuck you, you roadkill-munching Luddite human slim jim!”
🤬Come on PA! Do BETTER!!!
I believe one of the new mRNA vaccines was expected to treat colon cancer, and another had the potential to keep pancreatic cancer from recurring. That’s what they’re taking away.
So sad, brings back so many great memories- she was a gift 💗
She may not be so safe there , possible
💙💛Greetings to you and your lovely words. Enjoy your weekend, stay safe
This should be a Five Alarm Fire on every G'ddamned media outlet in the world. I very rarely post a link to someone else's newsletter...as I have my own. This, however...is a MUST see. open.substack.com/pub/thiswill...
The price of 1 lb of ground beef is now higher than the federal minimum hourly wage…
Frozen meals have doubled in the least expensive grocery- may be taking advantage of tariffs 🤷🏻♀️
Dems should vow to impeach Bove and any nominee who did not testify truthfully under oath
Devastating. Every minute, every life. She will be remembered 💙💛
Diesel pickup trucks for all! The bigger the better ☠️
I have thought on it and prayed about it, and I have decided: I am running to be the next U.S. Senator from North Carolina.
Maryland can't have flood relief because Stephen Miller demands concentration camps.
Trump admin denied disaster relief to Maryland although the state met the FEMA criteria
Thank you to Scotland 🏴 for showing up and taking a stand this weekend. We loved the signs, so many of them made us laugh. This weekend showed that the resistance is growing and that we have friends everywhere! Scotland the Brave!
As I said on @velshimsnbc.bsky.social that was media malpractice, not a single reporter calling out any lie or demanding he answer a question. They are worse than useless. They are enablers. He did not acknowledge starvation already happening, lied about wind, lied about a deal with Japan, etc.
Been a proud PBS Passport holder for years. It’s such a good investment.
bsky.app/profile/matt.... It isn't bragging when we live it and do it. Leading by example, walking the talk. #TeamCanadaStrong 🇨🇦 🍁 💯 #BE_thechange #GoodTrouble_Rebels
Not America, WE 🦋( most on here) did not vote for him as you know. “If” will continue to happen while he is in office. The disgust and frustration is understandable and felt 💯% day in, day out. We live it.

Maryland and Michigan are the latest targets of the U.S. Department of Justice’s (DOJ) hunt to collect sensitive voter data from states across the country. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
I want to know if the President of the United States is a pedophile. And I know the American people do too. I'm shocked that Republicans would rather shut down Congress than stand up to a dead pedophile. So why not release the files?
They will NEVER stop showing off their power..until we stop them. They’re over the moon and drunk with their superiority complexes -
Logan and Roman Roy in Succession F🤬🤬K!
Oh no! I didn’t hear, that’s so sad
How old is this child you are reposting here 🫣Pure embarrassment
What I’ve repeatedly said while banging my head against a wall! They’ve done it the right way all along
ATTN: If you’re one of the 1,000 FBI agents who reviewed the Epstein files, feel free to reach out to me via signal (in my bio). I’ll keep you anonymous- as I have the thousands of current and former federal workers who have sent me tips. Please share this widely. 🙏🏻
Wait now that old liberal rag the Wall Street journal is the enemy?!??
Just finished taping with Stephen Colbert who announced his show was cancelled. If Paramount and CBS ended the Late Show for political reasons, the public deserves to know. And deserves better.
That was fantastic!! Badass move: camera closeup :”hey Donald, piss off! But, before you do-would you release the Epstein files” Epic and there will come the day ( hopefully soon) where we can back to respectable, intelligent, caring individuals like yourself standing up for us and keeping us safe.
🫣😆where are we that they communicate via tweets and the public has to read it..what planet IS this 🤔
Creeeeeeeepy as f*#k
