Something that has been missing from the Trump administration’s review of the Epstein case: considering the survivors. This week, they speak out, and we should all be listening. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

Man, I feel this. 🙏🏽😭
I like this response to Velshi, pure facts: bsky.app/profile/arie...
Proud of you. You made amazing multiple points, you are great at defending working Dems, I applaud you. 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I do. Regularly. I think maybe you just don’t see much of what I do. But I’m happy to take your suggestions and center yet more of the people doing the hard work of upholding democracy.

Who’s your rep?
Thank you for this. It’s been infuriating to argue against false narratives. Hell, even my not quite as online Rep has been doing constant tele-town halls & organizing incredible events with job assistance fairs for fired fed workers, healthcare outreach, food help, etc. All of these things matter.🍸
I would be more than willing to be part of a segment where you highlight some of our fighters people aren’t paying attention to. You have one of the loudest voices in the world. Please use it to change the conversation. 12/12
I’m sure you’re just gonna see me as another person complaining and that’s fine but I needed to get this off my chest and if you would like to have me on my show to talk more about this, 11/
I really appreciate your work. I think you’re doing incredible work but this segment was shortsighted. This segment just affirmed what people were already feeling and what they were feeling is something I have been fighting against for six months. You did not help with that. 10/
In this piece, you said that you don’t know what happens behind closed doors and you’re not listening to people in Washington, but maybe you need to a bit because the people you named are the same people that everyone already knows. 9/
To amplify all the fighters. Do what you do with the banned book club. Have a segment where you amplify one democrat a week who is doing it right. Choose people no one else is talking about. You have the power to do that. 8/
We have the best chance at saving the world when we praise those doing the work not just the top five that everyone can name off the top of their heads. You have one of the biggest platforms in the world. You could use it to talk about those that no one else is talking about. 7/
I’m tired. I’m tired of posting about this day in and day out and having people who have a lot less than a lot larger audience than me saying the same damn thing. Maybe our Dems aren’t doing everything humanly possible but they are doing a hell of a lot more than you’re giving them credit for. 8/
You could’ve mentioned @jimmcgovernma.bsky.social who is the best ranking member we will ever have on the rules committee. I mean the fact that he found a loophole because the Republicans filed the rule wrong so he was able to have every Democrat ask for unanimous consent. That deserves praise. 7/
You could’ve mentioned @gomez.house.gov who went back to Roybal in downtown LA more than once a week for the last two months till ice let him in and is still going back because he’s not satisfied by what he saw 6/
For instance, you could’ve named @vanhollen.senate.gov who is in Israel as we speak, trying to get them to end the war to stop the famine. And who is the main reason that El Salvador is no longer housing American abductees 5/
You talked about the same names that everyone else talks about. You have a huge platform why can’t you name other people? Why can’t you prove that it’s more than just those people doing the work? 4/
Or the fact that the house Dems were 100% united against the CR and against the big ugly bill and against the rescission package. There are so many different voices in the Democratic Party to get all of them to do the same thing is a huge lift. You know this because you said it in your piece. 5/
You didn’t acknowledge how Jefferies created the rapid response task force and litigation working group and they are doing some incredible work I mean, did you even acknowledge the amicus briefs? Congress doesn’t normally get involved in cases like that. 4/
You also talked about Iowa, but you didn’t talk about the fact Ken Martin sent 30,000 volunteers there. In fact, every time we have won one of these elections, the DNC has been there. Every single one of these local wins the DNC has been there asking the campaign: hoe can we help? 3/
Or how hard the Senators worked to get the worst of the worst out of the big ugly bill and yeah, Schumer played a huge role in making that happen. You didn’t acknowledge how the DNC has organized 138 town halls in Republican district that our democratic lawmakers have hosted 2/
Yeah, I did watch it. For starters you didn’t acknowledge that Wall Street Journal wrote an article about how successful Schumer is with blocking Trump’s judicial nominees. 1/
Did you watch it? It is a very specific critique of Schumer, Jeffries and Democratic Party Leadership. Not of people doing the real work of upholding democracy as you are.
I’m so tired. I’m so very very tired I put in so much work and yet you still say this shit
Voters did not give democratic leadership the power needed to stop the GOP agenda. Rather than beat down D electeds, we should be amplifying them. This is what amplifying the work of democrats to defeat fascism looks like. bsky.app/profile/arie...
For me, this is a storyline I don't buy into. America put a fascist into the White House. They rejected a much better and much more joyful candidate in Kamala Harris. We gave Schumer and Jeffries a minority in both chambers. Yet, some of us want to blame only Schumer and Jeffries for that.
Largely true
Define Dems in this case. I don't think you're getting any of calls about your segment from Schumer or Jeffries's offices. You're just getting pushback from mainline voters like me.
Malcom if you watch my show you know 50% is Trump and his facial and malfeasance. Probably 35% in the good fight people are putting up. This was ONE segment. 10’minutes of valid critique out of 11 hours of TV I did this week. If Dems can’t handle that little critique they are in for trouble
Listen, @velshi.com, I don't hate you, or the work you're doing as a Journalist. A lot of times your shows have been very informative and I learned a lot. But to give "Schumer-Jeffries are the problem" any oxygen when we're facing actual Fascism from the White House isn't a good look.

He’s the Vice President of the United States. He could actually *do* something about this instead of just play pretend games.
Oh, honey . . . JD Vance isn't even ready to be *vice* president.
When unions are strong, our communities and our country are strong. Every person in our nation has benefited from the labor movement. This Labor Day, we celebrate the workers and unions who have fought for fair wages, safe workplaces, and sick leave for all of us.
9 Former CDC Directors who were all qualified for their posts are warning that deranged chaos agent RFK Jr is a danger to public health. I’d say he’s actively destroying public health and committing murder on a daily basis with his destructive monstrous agenda.

When Congress decided this summer to eliminate $1.1 billion allocated to public broadcasting, it left some 330 PBS and 246 NPR stations, each with unique issues related to their communities and history, to figure out what that means. www.cbsnews.com/news/public-...
I’m fed up with a system where there’s one set of rules for the rich and powerful and another for us. That’s not what America’s about. I introduced the SAFE Act to hold people in this administration accountable and give us a way to fight back against this lawlessness.
Happy Labor Day! Today we honor the workers who power our communities. I’ll keep fighting for fair wages, safe workplaces, and the dignity every worker deserves.
Chick-fil-A abruptly begins closing stores as economic crisis accelerates. All across America, restaurants are going dark. “Closed” signs are popping up as jobs disappear. The downturn has come for everyone – even Chick-fil-A. share.newsbreak.com/eswuvvcz?s=i16
"They're takin' our jobs!" has NEVER been true. It's a lie to make US-born people resent immigrants and get them to support harsh, cruel, anti-immigrant measures. No US-born citizens are rushing to fill the jobs undocumented people were doing.

“The ICC…found reasonable grounds [Deif]…crimes against humanity of murder, extermination, torture, rape and other forms of sexual violence, as well as the war crimes of murder, cruel treatment, torture, taking hostages, outrages upon personal dignity, and rape and other forms of sexual violence.”
Hamas are terrorists. “Where does Hamas, the second richest terror group in the world, get its $2 billion annual budget from?” “The cumulative net worth of Hamas’s top leaders abroad is estimated at $11 billion, and they do not hide their taste for the high life” nationalpost.com/news/world/i...
Are you high? You say you are for a solution, action, there exists $53 billion rebuild from Egypt. War ends, people recover, homes rebuilt.

Wages of unionized workers are 13% higher than their nonunion counterparts. But unions also set a higher pay standard that all workers enjoy. In high-union-density states, median household income is $12,000 higher than in low-union-density states. This is why unions are vital.

Maduro: “You have to be careful, because Marco Rubio wants to stain your hands with South American, Caribbean, Venezuelan blood, drag you into a bloodbath, and have your last name stained for centuries with a massacre against the people of Venezuela.”
Maduro: “We always keep all channels of conversation, dialogue, and diplomacy open with the US. We had two, now both are damaged.”
Maduro claims that Venezuela is being targeted by eight US military vessels “with 1,200 missiles”. It is an “absolutely criminal, bloody threat.”
Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro: “Venezuela is confronting the biggest threat that has been seen on our continent in the last 100 years. “A situation like this has never been seen.”

I’m proud to walk with labor, fight for labor, and to have delivered for working families. Solidarity is how we build a new American Dream. Together.
Labor Day - these are the men and women who build Michigan, teach our kids, take care of our loved ones, and who know that we’re more powerful together than we are alone. Whether or not you’re a part of organized labor, we all owe a debt of gratitude to those who have fought for all of us.
Time for sizzling BBQs, tasty treats, and lots of laughs with friends and family. Let’s soak up the sun, share good food, celebrate our hard work, and enjoy the sweet joy of community and togetherness! WE CAN’T forget our fight, but we all need a little recharge indulgence. HAPPY LABOR DAY🍔🌭🍉🎉💛
"By every measure, this has been the most hostile administration to workers in our lifetimes," AFL-CIO President Liz Shuler told me in an interview ahead of Labor Day. "Working people are really not feeling secure in this economy." www.npr.org/2025/09/01/g...
