Extortion of Nobel Prize is Hall of Fame level abuse of office. Every single Democrat should be mocking this clown for being so fragile, so insecure, so weak, and so openly corrupt.
Subway sandwich guy has been released on his own recognizance. His attorney argued the felony charge was excessive, and the judge agreed. Oh, and heâs a USAF veteran. www.wusa9.com/article/news...
âĄïžPro-Ukrainian protest held in Anchorage ahead of Trump-Putin summit. Pro-Ukrainian demonstrators took to the streets in Anchorage, Alaska, on Aug. 14 ahead of a planned summit between U.S. President Donald Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin the next day.
đâIf they want to sit down for a deposition & CLARIFY the nature of the RELATIONSHIP between Jeffery Epstein, if the president & the first lady want to do that ⊠I'm more than happy to PROVIDE them THE PLATFORM to be able to do itâ --Hunter Biden www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...
Leaked chart, dropped by Politico, shows winners and losers in Californiaâs redistrictingâAKA retributionâand Iâm here for it. đ This wouldnât even be on the table if Trump and Texas Republicans werenât trying to steal seats from Black and Brown communities. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
"To enforce President Trump's immigration crackdown" my ass. If you think this is about illegal immigration rather than a concerted effort to establish control over law enforcement and create a military presence in DC so as to hold on to power after losing an election, think again. Gift link.
Epstein footage was likely two separate videos that were stitched together, not raw data. There was an entrance to Epsteinâs portion of the prison that was not covered by released cameras, and the cameras that would have provided a better view âmalfunctionedâ Convenient.
So let me get this straight: Jack Smith investigates a guy who tried to overturn an election and incited an insurrection⊠and heâs the one being investigated? Weâre not a serious country. Weâre a banana republic with better brandingâŠbut thatâs going to shit, too.
The ârevised downâ numbers are just an admission of lies that they carried to pass the most destructive bill in recent history. Energy prices climbing, student loan processing up, healthcare cost increasing, and food. Now new tariffs. He builds a $200M tacky ballroom. This is the New Gilded Age.
Photo of the Day. Israel threatened reprisals if the press filmed Gaza from above during airdrops. This is why. A scene of destroyed & burnt out buildings in what is left of Gaza City, the pre-war home to 800,000 people. Credit to Post photographer Heidi Levine who defied the ban & took this.
Trump's move to fire the governmentâs statisticians over bad jobs numbers wonât make voters any happier with the economy, Jonathan Chait argues.
Durhamâs Debunking of the âClinton Planâ Emails, Explained Trump allies have fixated on a purported message about Hillary Clinton and Russia. John H. Durham, the special counsel, found evidence that it was likely a fake assembled by Russian spies. gift link: www.nytimes.com/2025/08/01/u...
Trump Today: 1. Made deal to move Maxwell to cushy min security Club Fed facility. 2. Had worst jobs report come out in a decade. 3. Said report was rigged & fired govt employee who made the report. 4. Moved 2 nuke subs off Russia to threaten them. 5. Flew to a golf outing.
To recap: More than 1,000 FBI agents were assigned to comb through the Epstein Files to flag any mentions of Trumpâs name for higher-ups. The FBI then redacted Trumpâs name from the files before ultimately deciding not to release the documents. COVER UP!!!
But Trump said China was going to pay the tariffs.
Trump gets his tariffs. You get the bill. From Tide detergent to new cars, companies are passing the cost to you. Prices are rising, profits are falling, and Main Street hasnât even felt the worst of it yet. These tariffs are just a tax on the American people. www.reuters.com/world/us/tru...
Letâs talk. Watch this and letâs chat on the other side. đ Do you think America will be ready to vote for a woman in â28? Because they said no in â24. And nothing about this country feels more ready now. đ What about a Black woman? đ A Black man? Harris was my 1st choice in â20, again in â24.
Breaking from the Office of Pres. Obama: "Our office does not normally dignify the constant nonsense and misinformation flowing out of this White House with a response. But these claims are outrageous enough to merit one. These bizarre allegations are ridiculous and a weak attempt at distraction.
So just to be clear - the âprotect the kidsâ party is now shutting the government down to protect sexual predators? Do we have this right?
they literally shut the government down in order to avoid the truth about Epstein. an entire branch of government isnât working for the American people b/c they are terrified of the truth.
Let that sink in for a sec.
EXCLUSIVE: Not only does an Excel spreadsheet of Trump mentions in the Epstein files exist, but so do training videos explaining how to flag the files for Trump mentions. Plus, the number of people who had access is larger than previously known. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/the-epstei...
NEW: Trumpâs budget chief suggested today he doesnât need Congress or the Constitution to force through massive cuts to federal spending, as Trump demonstrates heâs ânot cowing to a legislative branchâs understanding of its own authorities and powers.â www.huffpost.com/entry/russ-v...
You elect a sexual predator whose closest friend was a child rapist and you doubted he was in on the action? Now youâre surprised that he doesnât want any new evidence of his involvement to get out? Really?
This part canât be repeated enough. Does anyone actually think this was a coincidence?
TOMORROW: The Senate Judiciary Committee will hold a confirmation hearing for senior DOJ official and 3rd Circuit Nominee Emile Bove. More than 75 former federal judges have called for the rejection of his nomination.
Trump has initiated mass layoffs at the U.S. State Department, with more than 1,350 employees fired as part of a major restructuring of the diplomatic corps. In 2018, Gen. James Mattis famously warned, âIf you donât fund the State Department fully, then I need to buy more ammunition ultimately.â
Not a single House Republican voted in favor of releasing the Epstein files. Not one.
From back in February⊠Andy Ogles, any update on this? Or are you too busy trying to put the guy keeping these files from coming to light on Mount Rushmore? www.breitbart.com/politics/202...
Boy, if only someone would have told Epstein everything was fake and a creation of Obama and the CIA and deep state, he wouldnât have had to take his own life or have it taken by imaginary people
A newly completed investigation by Wyomingâs largest county found no evidence of noncitizen voting in the 2024 elections, undercutting claims used to justify the stateâs controversial proof of citizenship law. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
A stupid, self-inflicted (or, rather, Trump-inflicted) injury: "For young researchers, 'there is a lot of pressure to essentially leave the country or not pursue research.âŠIâm looking at these people whoâŠare extremely accomplished, some of the top in their fieldâŠand the door is closing on them.'"
Oh, is that all you know how to do, Mike?
Suozzi: "It just doesn't make sense that you're reducing taxes for some of the wealthiest people, hurting some of the lowest income people, while blowing the biggest deficit in the budget that we've had in the history of the country. Those things just don't add up."
April 11: âThe phones are ringing off the hook.â July 6: âMany of these countries never even contacted us.â @atrupar.com
I donât think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make whatâs happening now look like childâs play. And people are disappearing.
Republicans don't believe in the separation of Church and State. They do, however, believe in the separation of Jesus and Christianity.
If someone doesnât ask Karoline Leavitt why she posted on social media that this bill includes no taxes on Social Security when she knows it is a lie and she intentionally lied to the American people, everyone in the room should lose their jobs.
NEW: SCOTUS shoots down a federal judgeâs effort to protect eight men from being expelledâwithout due processâto South Sudan, where they face torture and death. Dissenting, Sotomayor says the courtâs âindefensibleâ decision makes it complicit in âlawlessness.â www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...
Trump: "Very importantly for Iowa, this bill rescues over 2 billion family farms from the so-called estate tax or the death tax." (over 2 billion??????)
They do this cause they know the bill is terrible for their states & districts. So they post a tweet opposing it, then fold right after. That way, come election time, they can claim they âfought it.â 99% of the time, that fight was complete BS.
Alright folks, here we go! Ask me anything, 30ish mins, gogo!
As we head into the Canada Day weekend, hereâs your regular reminder to boycott American goods and services
We were so fortunate to have such a good and decent man as our president.
Today, the SCOTUS just took a blowtorch to the idea of equal justice. Their ruling? It says if the gov stomps on your rights, you better wait your damn turn. No more federal judges hitting the brakes with nationwide injunctions. Now it's âone lawsuit at a time,â while the bulldozer keeps rolling.
We took an oath to defend the Constitution - just like every Senator. Today, Republicans broke that oath. We WILL hold them accountable. (2/2)
Mask off, hood on.
Republicans are showing their whole racist ass right now! Disgusting comment by a sitting Congressman. Zohran Mamdani is an American citizen, like it or not.
Ukraine, LĂ©vy argues, is Europeâs bulwark against an imperialistic Russia that would have likely swept over Georgia and Moldova, and would be threatening the Baltics and Eastern Europe, had it not been stopped by heroic Ukrainian resistance.
Iâm choked up seeing thisâitâs shameful. Iranian refugees got snatched by âimmigration agentsâ dressed like bounty hunters in West LAâs Sawtelle neighborhood. Weâre really about to send them back to a country we just bombed? A regime known for jailing, torturing, and killing its own people?
Tyrese Haliburton is ready to attack his Achilles rehab like the stars before him â including Kobe Bryant. "Give me some time, Iâll dust myself off and get right back to being the best version of Tyrese Haliburton." (via Haliburton on X)
This is an amazing bit of work by Carney. Absolutely brilliant move. www.cbc.ca/news/politic...
A real leader!
Surely none of yâall believe we attacked Iran because they are on the verge of a nuclear weapon. Those of us over 25 have seen this movie before. Donât fall for it
Wow: ICE Has Deported at Least 70 U.S. Citizens
what federal agents did to a father of three Marines while he was cutting grass in Orange County on Sunday has happened in some form daily â and deliberately â all over Los Angeles for 18 days.
Wow so youâre telling me everyone who cheered on the Iraq war is on board with this now too? And so are the people who opposed the Iran nuclear deal and killed it? Youâre kidding.
The Supreme Court issued a stay, effectively ruling, for now, that the Constitution no longer applies, at least not to immigrants. Fast-track deportations with no opportunity for judicial review violate the fundamental principle of due process, especially for people already on U.S. soil.
What am I worried about? -Safety of 30k US troops in the Middle East -cybersecurity (since CISA was recently gutted) & homeland security (as HLS focused on immigration) -Economic strength (oil prices and tariffs) -Allied assistance (weâll need that now) -Domestic intell (leadership at FBI/DNI)
FUN FACT: Netanyahu has spent the better part of two decades trying to strong arm the United States into an unprovoked war against Iran and finally found a president stupid enough to do it for him. Unbelievable.
đđ€âźïžđâđŒđđâđŠș
So⊠People seem to think that weâre just done now? We bombed the shit out of three nuclear sites in a country we werenât at war with, and thatâs just⊠it? Oh, my sweet summer children.
Iâll say it again: It was a huge mistake for Congress to abolish itself.
Gen. Barry McCaffrey: âWe are at war with Iran right now.â
And just like that, the âNo New Warsâ people are all-in on a new war. Proving yet again that they really believe in nothing other than what one man tells them to believe today. Which could be different tomorrow. The very definition of a cult.
đŁïž9 YEAR OLD: âWhat Trump is doing is frightening â unlike some people we know the meaning of the Declaration of Independence.â
I hate the way Iran treats its women. But a country that kept a brain dead woman alive to force her to give birth, and forced her family to pay for it all against their wishes, hardly has a leg to stand on. We treat women like beasts of burden and take away their agency right here. SoâŠđ€·đœââïž
The right wing and Fox launched a smear campaign against Newsom. In the past, he mightâve ignored itâbut heâs seen how right-wing trolls work with Fox to create false narratives. So this time, Newsom responded immediately. No hesitation.
No matter where someone was born, the United States should never tolerate inhumane treatment. Yet right now, detainees in ICE custody are facing conditions that are simply unacceptable in any country that claims to uphold human rights, let alone one that prides itself on freedom and the rule of law.
BREAKING: In a unanimous decision, a federal court of appeals has ruled that Louisiana's law requiring the Ten Commandments to be displayed in all public school classrooms is unconstitutional. Weâll keep saying it: Public schools are not Sunday schools.
#GVerse #BreakingNews - Six U.S. B-2A stealth bombers have departed Whiteman USAF Base in Missouri, accompanied by eight KC-135 tankers. Believed to be heading to Guam. These are the very planes the U.S. would use if they were to drop âBunker busterâ bombs or nuclear munitions on Iranâs Fordo.
Conserving our environment is an American value. From hikers to hunters we want to keep our public lands public! Thats why the unprecedented sell-off of millions of acres of public lands needs to be removed from the Senate Budget Bill. Nature is non partisan! đșđž Pass it on!
Just some creepy armed Mad Max guys trying to gain entry to Dodgers Stadium. ICE says it wasnât them. DHS says they were Border Patrol. But honestly who the hell knows? Theyâve given permission for any psycho to put on a ski mask, point a gun, grab people & throw them into an unmarked vehicle.
Why? Why? Why? We keep asking ourselves as does the press - why is F47 doing this or that? Heâs not. Heâs a figurehead. Heâs incompetent. Heâs impotent. Whoâs running the country? Stephen Miller and the 70% of his Cabinet members who are Project 2025 architects are running the country.
We're a decade into this shit and I still cannot get my mind around how America put the single worst human being it has produced in the postwar era in charge not once but twice.
âRunning the government like a businessâ is just another way of saying that we should privatize government services afforded to everyone. You know who would love that? Wall Street and big corporations. Donât buy into the myth. https://youtu.be/hqn1uD_B70U?si=aClsRAYTJHYGXpB4
We were promised peace through strength and we got wars from incompetence.
THIS x 1,000,000. Honestly I donât know who this person is (this clip popped up on social media) but I would vote for them tomorrow.
An Afghan man who worked as a translator for the U.S. military during the war was detained by ICE after showing up for a hearing inside of a federal courthouse in San Diego, his attorney says. He fears that if he returns to Afghanistan, he would be tortured or even killed, @nbcsandiego.com reports.
Trump abruptly announced that he would leave the G7 summit a day early and return to Washington shortly after posting an ominous social media message that appeared to suggest more carnage in Iran.
A top staffer to Sen. Tina Smith emailed Sen. Mike Leeâs top staffers on Monday about âhow much additional pain youâve caused on an unspeakably horrific weekendâ Full emails below

Literally the Russian flag in the post. Two of them
Newsom: "He's been a stone cold liar about what he said we talked about. He never discussed the National Guard. Period. Full stop. I would love to share with you what he actually talked about. It would send shivers up your spine."

On 6/12, DHS Secây Kristi Noem said âWe are staying here to liberate [LA] from the socialists and the burdensome leadership this governor and mayor have placed on this country and this city.â This use of military force to displace a democratically elected is the very definition of a coup.
âThereâs no recording allowed out here.â I just grabbed this uncredited off Facebook. Does anyone know who recorded it? I want to make sure they get proper credit.
Law enforcement in L.A. used tear gas, flash grenades, and rubber bullets on protesters â one reporter was even hit live on air. These âless-lethalâ weapons can blind, break bones, and even kill. Theyâre not crowd control â theyâre tools of fear and intimidation.
I do think that this administration has crossed a trip wire today with Kristi Noems comments and the arrest of US Senator Padilla. "We are staying here to "liberate" the city from "socialist" and burdensome leadership" Good God! She may have just sparked a civil war! God help us all.
He did not âlungeâ at Secretary Noem. He DID identify himself. Our government is lying.đ
Sen. Alex Padilla, who was just forcibly removed from a DHS press conference, is the ranking member of Judiciaryâs subcommittee on immigration, citizenship, and border safety, which has âoversight of federal agencies with citizenship, asylum, refugee, and immigration enforcement responsibilities.â
7 Democratic Senators voted to confirm Noem. 2 wrote statements, both lame, both incredibly naive. Andy Kim NJ: www.kim.senate.gov/senator-kim-... Gary Peters MI: www.peters.senate.gov/newsroom/pre...
Here is Senator Alex Padilla's entire full statement after being detained by Donald Trump and Kristi Noem's Department of Homeland Security. Like he said, if they're doing this to a sitting Senator, imagine what they're doing to other people. Unconscionable.
