Senate office buildings
A “fella”. Art, too much politics, dogs. Could use more humor in life.

Senate office buildings
Remember Nate Silver refuses to use Bluesky and says you'd have to pay him over a million dollars to use it, so I'm going to suggest he not only doesn't know what "normal" people like, he doesn't even know what Bluesky is.... Signal and the noise guy is full of noise once again.
I appreciate the myth busting by @stevecollinsyji.bsky.social here but I’ll present a left-critique. Socking money away has an opportunity cost. It’s like my great grandfather had plenty in his savings account but still used an outhouse in 1980. #mepolitics www.pressherald.com/2025/09/01/t...
Long, but interesting thread
Time to do my weekly passing of the campaign hat. If you can donate something, regardless of how much, it’ll really help. If you’ve already donated something, you’re awesome! If you can’t donate, you can still sign up to get email updates for what the campaign will be doing. Have a great Labor Day!
we should bring back corruption as a liability for politicians
He has kind of a judgemental face
Rosco is here!
How you feeling?
The situation so far… #LifeOfMarv
TEA
Photo passed along from a federal employee from inside the Dept of Labor building, where a giant Orwellian image of Trump's face is now draped outside. Big Brother is watching.
Awfully young boy getting a chain wrapped around his waist here. These kids *appear* to have been deported with their mothers. So not the unaccompanied minors from the court case, though ICE may have intended to have unaccompanied minors on this flight before the judge stopped them.
That’s great. My Mom didn’t drink much either. Same with her sisters. My Mom is a few years from 90 and she and my Dad still do morning walks and tai chi. Your Mom and mine seem alike in their beauty and health regimen.
Remember when people used the term "false equivalency"?
I added tanning in and forgot to fix the word before it. 🤦♀️
Trump spent 30% of his time as US President playing golf! During 225 days in office, he played 66 days - White House. MAGA-More American Golf Again #FuckTrump #FuckICE #News
My Mom was careful when I was growing up and a work friend of hers was the opposite. Always in tanning in the sun and a smoker. HUGE difference as they aged. They looked decades different in age by the time they retired.
Decent crowd at the HB pier, about a hundred people so far protesting Trump.
If you’re just learning more about ICE Air, here are the basics: -Commercial charters do domestic shuffle and intl removal flights. Mostly Global X but also Avelo, Eastern Air Express, and Omni. -Private jet charters do removals to Africa, inc. third-country -Coast Guard does domestic shuffles 1/
🤔🤔
Being president during the Great Recession really changed him into a completely different person
It does! 🤣
Why does every new photo of Trump look like a Bigfoot spotting
So a tiny violin, mandolins and a German walking stick violin from c1820 all in Nice
😹
was not expecting the last one
Went to the farmstand wearing my “FASCISM IS BAD” shirt and not a single person said anything. They get a lot of uppity summer people from some towns nearby. The employee at the bakery this morning liked it! She commented how we’re living in it.
If we had actually enforced closures and masking for two months and stopped transmission of the FUCKING DEADLY VIRUS THAT KILLED MILLIONS that would have worked but we caved to angry science deniers so now it's September 2025 and people are still dying from a virus and they blame lockdowns instead.
If you regularly see ICE, ATF, FBI, DSS, IRS, or other federal agents in the same area in DC, please let me know -- especially if it hasn't really been reported on.
listen if you enjoy hearing me gab and not just shitpost
they can prop him up all they want but he hasn’t blathered into a camera for days now, there’s no way he’s doing well if he’s not talking to the press
and while not everyone here is from the United States, a lot of people here ARE from the U.S., and of course the 2025 Bad Vibes are permeating a lot of other places globally, too
i just don't think it's at all mysterious why the website that's massively dominated by the exact kind of people that Trump 2.0 is actively persecuting might have more depressing vibes in 2025 than it did in 2024
Anyone have info on this ICE raid last night in DC?
It’s probably on YouTube like Eurovision, but not sure. I’d never heard of it before.
At least this is better than what was supposedly posted before.
They do a booth at the Kennebunk farmers market.
That judge sure did! Plus she has a great name.
Let me take a big swig of Diet Coke and crack open Twitter's trollsuit against Apple and OpenAI ... OWWW MY NOSE BURNS storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...
Hilarious. Curtis Yarvin, JD Vance's favorite big-brain philosopher on X, got caught not knowing that "Roma" and "Romanians" are completely different and then tried to play the old "I was trolling! It was a joke! It was bait! You fell for it!" trick.
![@curtis_yarvin on X: Yet in every other country, in almost every sociological category, the Roma stand out as underperforming outliers. A statistical puzzle. What is the secret sauce? Can it be served to other underprivileged populations? Maybe we just need to give the youths more standardized tests [Article about Romania] 31 Aug 25](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:eppsmw5nfmdzhfeymtzd3xbe/bafkreifrigfudrmpct3cfaxfldtrmkoi5kagqx7fqladcwdpwcevf7aagy@jpeg "Click to view full size")
Lots of people with questions about this The government said there were 76 putative class members (children) loaded on planes yesterday But the putative class covered by the judge’s order isn’t limited to kids that were loaded on planes for imminent deportation That’s why the ~600 estimate

Remember Dmitriev (head of Russian sovereign fund)? He attended the meetings with Witkoff, summit in Alaska..
Speaking of Hulk Hogan, this contains a shockingly large amount of wrestling-related humor, including a lot of Hogan disses. It's delightful.
I realized I’m so used to the orange makeup that he looks sick without it. Ok he looks sick with it too, but way worse without.
Crap. Kids these days.
Fucking Bull calf dragged me thru the electric fence 🤬🤬🤬. Self medicating with ibuprofen, bio freeze, weed and beer before I go back to trying to catch his ass 🐂
#happylaborday #supportunions
I wish my two week vacation fell under the taco definition of two weeks…
Plus trump gets the vaccine and they were made when he was in office. He wants the credit.
He’s always like that. I realized that I’m so used to the orange makeup that without it he looks super pale.

After his business in Poland was slammed with bad reviews for doing it.
Honestly, the hour-long run and march of people shouting “Free DC” up 14th Street today is the energy I needed this morning. I love you, DC.
First hazelnuts are dropping! Time to get roasting #hazelnuts #foodforest #nuts #gardening #september
The US is some guy I’ve never heard of who claims to be Michael Jackson’s son.
there’s a special place in hell for drew ensign
It makes me emotional to see Judge Sooknanan showing that she values each individual child’s life at a moment when this administration is doing exactly the opposite
He looks terrible. Maybe I’m used to him being orange so days off he looks sickly.
JUST IN: Drew Ensign, on behalf of DOJ, reports that all of the migrant children have been returned to ORR custody.
This is also routine rhetoric in Silicon Valley — even by immigrant founders! — about America and nobody says shit. Journalists refuse to even *mention* it, let alone ask questions or hold anyone accountable.
This dude rfk jr is evil.
Going after the judges again:
Wish everyone followed Sweden’s lead.
New in PN: "By the time you read this, the White House may have put out a Labor Day statement. It will no doubt offer an effusive tribute to Trump, who in his infinite beneficence has delivered workers a utopia of prosperity. But back on Earth, he's the most anti-labor president in modern history."
#CDC #RFKjr #vaccine #measles #covid #news #science #GOP #AMA
My inexpert opinion is still that, on balance, this figure is likely too high by a large degree. That’s because the analysis relies on a presumption that immigrant survey response rates haven’t changed, and I’d bet dollars to donuts they have.
There was a very strong shelling in Zaporizhzhia. Nadija 84 is bedridden, so she, like many others, can't reach the shelter. 20 seniors today My pp is subbotinawed@gmail.com
I remember learning about it in school.

The Peace Bomber.
At least now we know why Yanukovuch stole the entire remaining state budget from Ukraine as he was fleeing to Russia -- it's the fucking dentists.
In law school, I was taught this couldn’t happen. 😭
One of the most memorable pieces from the 2023 Gwangju Biennale: Yuki Kihara's Phase 3 'Moana (Pacific Ocean).' UV print on Sāmoan tapa cloth. A forewarning against heightened resource extraction by foreign powers to assert their geopolitical dominance across the Pacific Ocean.

Good morning! I’m here at the DC Freedom Run! DC statehood now, ICE & National Guard out of DC! #FreeDC!!
News reporting today on von der Leyen's aircraft landing in Plovdiv has triggered more slightly bizarre conversations with media treating "GPS jamming" as something that has never happened before, because suddenly it has affected somebody they have heard of. Instead, it's normal: amzn.to/4cFI1b6
This Labor Day I am celebrating the workers at the Coleman plant in Wichita, Kansas, making these two identical coolers in 1990 and 1994 that are in perfect shape today, workers who have been fighting for union representation since it was stripped from them in 1989.
These Black resort towns, from Oak Bluffs to American Beach, are still refuges today
Happy Labor Day everyone! A reminder that Trump has just about decimated the federal workforce. Nearly 10% of all federal workers forced out of their jobs since Jan. "We’re seeing the arson of our government." www.huffpost.com/entry/trump-...
Not a good look when you open your piece on birthright citizenship by misquoting the 14th amendment. (It does not improve. It’s really really bad. And the author has been cited by Supreme Court Justices.) lawliberty.org/cutting-the-...
Don’t know if it makes you feel any better, but I’ve always followed due to your art.
Is the pingree farm people her family?
Of all the people to leave Farmers off the list 😝
Unions built this city and keep it running. They’ve fought against power and greed to make the impossible possible. Now, they need an ally in City Hall. On Labor Day, the presidents of the Hotel Trades Council, 32BJ and SEIU 1199 make the case at @cityandstateny.bsky.social.
Pushing boundaries and sidestepping norms - it's the new dance craze from the NYT! Everyone is embracing the authoritarian headline two step.
Today’s picturesque press pool. Why don’t they ask where DJT is going every morning at the same time, when they’re placed in the same tennis hall to sit there until about 2:30pm, just to return to the WH. I don’t know, I’d be curious.

CNN confirms that the pilots landed the plane using paper maps. www.cnn.com/2025/09/01/w...
Still no public events
Trump will not make a public appearance today either. His last televised appearance was as long as six days ago.
