So after the Epstein survivors themselves said this matter wasn't a hoax and told their stories, the President told them they were lying. That's the headline every reputable media outlet should be running.
Donald Trump, speaking almost simultaneously with the Epstein survivors: “This is a Democrat hoax” Just a disgusting lie-in every sense •It’s not the Democrats •It’s not a hoax •And he could easily clarify everything by releasing the files But he won’t-and I think we all know why
AOC: Millionaires are very overrepresented in congress… If we want a congress that reflects the actual country we seek to represent and fight for, we need to have working class people who work here
BREAKING: A federal appeals court just denied the Trump administration’s emergency motion to block Commissioner Rebecca Slaughter’s reinstatement to the FTC. This is a win for accountability, transparency, and the rule of law, but the fight isn’t over. Follow the case: https://protdem.org/4mKJ9zy
Your periodic reminder that mRNA vaccines are a scientific and public health game-changer. Those that have been approved have passed stringent efficacy and safety checks. They protect you and your child against potentially fatal diseases. You may, however, get a sore arm.
So despite no Authorization for Use of Military Force and no possible invocation of the War Powers Act, the U.S. military is now going to be drone striking people alleged to be committing a crime? Again, on what legal authority?
Shockingly, it turns out that when CBS handed $16 million over to Trump's "presidential library," it didn't placate him in the least. Kristi Noem has now used precisely the same scam, a phony accusation of deceptive editing, that Trump used to extort CBS last time! newrepublic.com/article/1998...
Do we realize how insane this is? Obliterating people in international waters because they are *suspected* of crimes? We used to fight pirates, not operate as one. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/02/u...
The cover-up continues
This level of corruption is not normal or acceptable. Even if we are exhausted by each report of it going further and further, we can never grow numb to it.
Host: There are new calls this morning for RFK Jr.'s resignation, and those calls coming from inside HHS itself. More than 1,000 current and former HHS workers are making this demand in a letter released this morning. They say his leadership has "put the health of all Americans at risk"
Nine former directors of the CDC who served under from Jimmy Carter to Donald Trump, are warning us that RFK Jr's assault on the agency is putting every American in danger with his chaotic, ideological assault on public health. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/01/o...

Mainstream media is always so scared to talk about Trump’s mental & physical health! But WE aren't! @joyannreid.bsky.social & I talk about traditional media's refusal to cover the realities of Trump, a possible JD Vance presidency, and the joy of independent media. youtu.be/HZ8oukRBtJE?...
Reid: Bondi is not a real AG. She just works for Trump. All these U.S. attorneys — what’s her name from Fox (who I hope is sober) — she’s not a real U.S. attorney. She works for Trump. They’ve gutted the DOJ. The DOJ doesn’t exist. The FBI doesn’t exist. It’s all just Trump’s employees.
Release the #Epstein files please.
Big thanks to all of you who mobilized on Labor Day to demand a country that puts workers first.
So glad I took today off. It has been a very busy one, although I slept in first! Errands galore and now I start my chores around the house. I'm off tomorrow too...less chores, more chill is the plan.
Distracting, isn't it?
It’s corruption, plain and simple.
Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick's family is going to make billions off of Trump's failed tariffs that destroyed small businesses. 🤷♂️ A lot of this going around.
Meiselas: Xi Jinping and Modi and Putin and all these world leaders are gathering in China, and they're laughing. You know when Donald Trump says the world was laughing at us — the world was not laughing at us before. The world is quite literally laughing at us right now.
The Trump regime’s domestic terrorist organization—ICE—now has access to an Israeli-made spyware that can hack phones and encrypted apps, building their capability to target dissidents.
NEWS: A federal judge has ruled that Trump’s deployment of military forces to Los Angeles violated the Posse Comitatus Act, a law that prohibits the use of the armed forces as a domestic police force.

Corporate executives who defraud nursing homes? Pardoned. Reality TV stars who evade millions in taxes? Pardoned. Thousands of January 6th rioters? Pardoned. Anyone who opposes Trump? Prosecuted.
I really don't think we've barely begun to come to terms with how tech companies have actively decided to destroy the basic infrastructure of human information to juice their share price
Newsom v. Trump: a federal court granted our injunction, blocking Trump’s illegal use of the military for domestic law enforcement. The ruling is clear: Trump is breaking the law by trying to create a national police force with himself as its chief.

Took my dog Whiskey to "grandma and grandpa's" today. My mom and I went to the beach, and the boys chilled at home. As usual, when it's time to leave, Whiskey wants to stay...he pushed the door open and hid in my dad's room, and he was already asleep. My mom had to corner him. 🤦♀️
30 cases of voter fraud annually, and the GOP passes 104 voter suppression laws. 47,000 gun deaths a year, and the GOP does absolutely NOTHING.

Ah yes, this is almost a year old, and it was barely a blip when it happened. If this were Hunter Biden, we'd have seen this clip a million times on mainstream media!!
I mean, if that were actually true, I would assume they used those funds to completely wipe out the deficit and then canceled their GoFundMe to help pay for the deficit, right?
Good morning with good news: Japan, world's 4th largest economy, cut its fossil fuel generated electricity from 73.1% in June 2018 to 54.8% in June 2025. That's 18.3 points drop or 2.6 points/year! It could be near zero FF by 2045. Gas fell from 38.1% to 27.4% Coal fell from 30% to 20% #energysky

9 CDC Directors going back to 1977 speak out. What RFK Jr has done to our nation’s public health system "should alarm every American." It "is unlike anything we have ever seen at the agency, and unlike anything our country has ever experienced." www.nytimes.com/2025/09/01/o...
Happy Labor Day! Where are the #Epstein files?
This is, of course, false. The United States exported $83 billion in goods and services to India last year alone.
It has been a long time since I've painted anything. I painted a half wall & an upper support wall over yesterday & today. My shoulders, hands, wrists, triceps, thighs (in and out), as well as my ass are all feeling it today. Tomorrow should be fun since I climbed a ladder about 30 times today!
TONIGHT AT 6: Michigan Senate candidate and doctor @abdulelsayed.bsky.social joins to discuss the chaos at the CDC and whether Trump and RFK Jr have brought it to a point-of-no-return.

Why Isn't Donald Trump's Declining Health Being Covered by Corporate Media? Where are the op-eds & news programs calling for Trump's resignation due to his declining health, impaired abilities, & march towards fascism? Oh, yeah, "both sides" corporate journalism. open.substack.com/pub/thelefth...

This is a strong essay from Flavor Flav, a man who has changed his own perspective on guns. May his own change of heart & perspective serve as a guidepost for others.
wtf is this nonsense? He thinks he can understand kid’s “mitochondrial challenges” just by looking at them? This is an insane person.
Thank you!
I bet you never thought of housing as a tech problem before…
Newsom already trolled & took the credit for the change, lol.
The Trump Administration manipulates data provided to the public from agencies like the Dept. of Energy & the EPA, to help his buddies in the fossil fuels industry. @govjayinslee.bsky.social: “Trump is a big speedbump” in the fight for clean energy, but Inslee has a plan. youtu.be/XQMpwJ4CzEo?...

Facebook needs to add the option to block an account directly from the suggested reels. I have to open the reel to block the account, which in turn just causes FB to keep suggesting more accounts like those I'm blocking!
Should have done an audit...just saying.
Andrew Cuomo has begun transferring money from a state campaign account to his city account as he tries to stop Zohran Mamdani, whose fundraising has surged since winning the Democratic mayoral primary in June.
I miss the days before Sling had Fox News. Not that I watch it, but sometimes they recommend it & that alone makes me angry.
Pritzker: This is not about fighting crime. This is about the President and his complicit lackey, Stephen Miller, searching for ways to lay the groundwork to circumvent our democracy, militarize our cities, and end elections.
Meiselas: Stop both-sidesing it, media. Stop trying to sow division within the Democratic Party when we literally have military invasions into American cities, aided and abetted by red state governors, who, again, are the takers who wouldn't exist without the blue states
Japan Post just announced they will no longer deliver mail to the United States, joining Germany, Austria, Denmark, Italy, France, and Sweden.
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.

Operation Epstein Economy Distraction
Pritzker: To the members of the press who are assembled here today and listening across the country, I am asking for your courage to tell it like it is. This is not a time to pretend here that there are two sides to this story.
Today, Trump is concerned about flag desecration. However, the flags at his rallies are covered in stains.
It is SO odd!
Yea...even with Hello Fresh the recipe would be "ready in 20 min"...40 minutes later the food is going on the stove/in the oven. They clearly don't take reading the recipe 20 times into account, and unlike some people, I cannot dice anything in seconds.
Release the fucking #Epstein list!!!
TL;dr Intel was extorted into granting a 10% stake in order to receive previously promised Chips Act grants. And Andrew Ross Sorkin can't or won't call the spade a spade.
KILMAR IN BALTIMORE: “Never lose hope. Promise me you’ll continue fight for freedom — not just for me, for everybody.” He was just taken into ICE custody.
That isn't even real. It's likely spray painted crap from Hobby Lobby.
The money is coming from inside the house (our pockets). The administration is laundering it & the profits are going to corporations who donate it back to their pockets. It's like Ozark on a massive scale and without all the heroin.
Let’s be clear: deporting Kilmar Abrego Garcia to Uganda makes no sense—it’s not his home country. Nothing about this process has been fair. ICE is targeting him with cruelty. This is the weaponization of government, not justice.
They are busy writing strongly worded letters
Jesus christ. Cracker Barrel is the new fucking Sydney Sweeney. Enough already. Release the goddamn #Epstein files.
