Apparently. My bad. I have no issue and think kindness towards all should be the plan, but I had no idea the numbers were that high. I stand corrected.
When our Supreme Court stated that money is speech and corporations are people they confirmed what we working people already knew. They made bribery legal. It appears some of the justices themselves were bribed. We need to get money out of politics and rid ourselves of bought office holders! 😏
I think it's time to discuss the 25th Amendment.
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...
Did you know in 1890 manufacturing employees worked on average 100 hours a week? It would be decades before the eight-hour workday became real. It took labor activists and labor unions to turn the cry for change into policy and practice. www.americaamerica.news/p/a-labor-da...
No.
Trump's entire administration is so incompetent that they posted a week old photo, trying to pass it off as a new photo.
No he did not. You are correct. It’s stupid, but not stupid enough to be him.
Troops in the streets and he thinks he’s going to get a Nobel, peace begins at home
Typical republiCON slug
Probably
Tulsi Gabbard is *very obviously* a foreign intelligence asset and I hope we all live long enough to see her tried and convicted for it.
That’s sad. I’m in my sixties and the world has never seemed this dumb before.
Worldwide that is more believable, but it feels high based on my experience. I do live in the very conservative Midwest, and it is definitely not 1% here. Thanks for the info.
There's only one way to stop the rumors about Donald Trump's health: a press conference. Why won't he talk to the press, and why isn't the media doggedly demanding it?
I agree with what you are saying, but one out of every 100 Americans is transgender????? I don’t think so. 🤔
KEILAR: Of 172 mass attacks between 2016 & 2020, 96% were non-trans men. Are you missing bigger picture? GORKA: No. When you look at shootings at Christian schools the data is different K: Of 32 school shootings since 2020, only 3 were trans shooters G: Forgive me if I don't go with CNN's stats
Jill Stein and Cornel West both disgust me — such goddamn, self-serving hypocrites.
Free advice for the administration: If you want to stop the Trump health coverage, maybe stop posting verifiably old videos and keeping him as far away from cameras as humanly possible
🚨Trump moments ago: “Never felt better in my life." Ok, he must be seriously ill.
I wasn’t super convinced that something was seriously wrong with Trump until he tweeted this
I wonder if Susan Collins will follow the lead of Joni Ernst and drop out because she knows she'll be trounced and most of her constituency hates her.
Medicare for all, paid leave, universal childcare. Busting up big corporations and tackling Wall Street’s greed. Getting big money out of politics. Supporting unions and fighting for higher wages. If Dems want to win back working people, this is the agenda they must support.

Did you hear about the Pentagon official who allegedly had some kind of messy affair with an astrologer? (No, that's not the setup for a joke, that's an actual news story.) I just realized today that it's this bigoted guy we wrote about five years ago. www.thebulwark.com/p/a-terrible...
What a ridiculous person.
Newsom rattling poor Johny boy
My reporting uncovered the existence of DoJ training videos instructing FBI personnel on how to flag Trump’s name in the Epstein files. I’m suing to get the videos under FOIA. substack.com/@muellershew...
Happy Labor Day President Biden!!! Miss you and love you!!! 🥰
@nealkatyal.bsky.social: “You’ve got the president who's imposed the largest tax increase on American consumers since 1993 … and he did it without Congress saying one word. That is not our constitutional structure.”
I do think the DNC has to stop treating new progressives like the plague, yes. But there has to be a give and take there, too - Progressives have to understand that they can’t just badmouth ‘normie’ Dems at will. We’re all on the same side and need to act like it.
Good morning and happy Saturday to everyone. What kind of punk ass bitch revokes the Secret Service security detail for Kamala Harris? One that’s petty, small, pathetic, vengeful, and on the Epstein list, that’s who.
DOGE wasn’t a cost-cutting venture. It was a data mining operation for private interests. Trump opened the gates to the castle from inside for invaders with bad and greedy intent to plunder and exploit.
Do you agree? Are you paying attention?
Psaki: Comer was a little slow to move forward with the subpoenas, at least in my view. Moskowitz: That’s actually his regular speed. He’s just a little slow in general.
Look forward to Stephen Miller's criminal trial and then life in prison for crimes against humanity.

I’m no longer a Californian but they’re the only state with the resources, and Governor, capable of carrying this off. Don’t let America turn into a science wasteland because of MAGA Morons! 🙏
Kennedy family has taken stand against Bobby Kennedy Jr., whose incompetence as Secty of Health disgraces family name & legacy. His sister calls for his impeachment. RFK jr. is not a doctor, has no med training & embraces crank beliefs abt polio & other proven beneficial vaccines. He's nuts.
Welch: As someone who lives in a red state, let me just tell you what MAGA supermajorities get you. We're 50th in education. The worst in the whole country for women to live. We're poorer, worst health care. And if you look at the bottom ten states, they are all MAGA supermajorities.
Why did we purposely just let him bail on serious charges is our CRIME, WE FUCKED UP, WE THE PEOPLE🙄
BREAKING: Bernie Sanders has called for a special Senate committee hearing on the CDC crisis, demanding that RFK Jr. testify under oath about the disaster he’s created.
“.. Kennedy was acting bizarre, saying he can tell as he walks past children if they are dealing with “mitochondrial challenges” .. Can he mysteriously divine illnesses just by looking? “Our health secretary is a certified quack.” @nytopinion.nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2025/08/30/o...
Let that sink in.
“…I am infuriated that the Air Force plans to grant military funeral honors to Ashli Babbitt. She did not die defending the Constitution. She died trying to overturn it.” My latest in @thebulwark.com www.thebulwark.com/p/honoring-a...

GAVIN NEWSOM Nobel Peace Prize 2025‼️ @governor.ca.gov
Can't believe that in 2025 we have to be telling people that vaccines are safe and slavery was bad.
I wholeheartedly agree with this!
The fun would be watching Chump's reaction to it. 🤯 #ReleaseTheEPSTEIN_Files
Ashli Babbitt made a choice. She went to DC to cause trouble.She heeded her insane leader's cry for insurrection.She violently forced her way into our seat of governance with throngs of others to halt our democratic process,she destroyed public property & was ready to go further. She is no hero.
The same people who villainize Dr. Anthony Fauci, an actual doctor with a speciality in immunology and research in virology, are praising RFK Jr who has never seen the inside of a lab.
The reported meeting is part of the House Oversight Committee’s broader investigation into the Jeffrey Epstein case.
Trump Administration Live Updates: Appeals Court Finds Many Tariffs Were Issued Illegally www.nytimes.com/live/2025/08...
The damage this man has done is incalculable.
Art depicting “Sandwich Guy” now at the scene of the alleged misdemeanor.
What if we established a tax-exempt Church of Democracy and sued the government for infringing on our religious freedoms when it does authoritarian stuff?
Excellent question.
Some people say it will be the best breaking news ever.
Good riddance to bad rubbish. Joni Ernst isn't seeking reelection in 2026. Time to FLIP IOWA BLUE!!!!!! www-cbsnews-com.cdn.ampproject.org/c/s/www.cbsn...
I hope people realize how absolutely fucked this situation is. This isn’t normal. People are resigning all over the place because the government is mishandling our data, ruining our public health services, and generally making Americans less safe.
I really need to know if there’s, like, one guy at every hedge fund whose whole job is just refreshing the docket nonstop so he can make a trade the second a tariff ruling drops
there is no question in my mind that rfk jr is the most dangerous person in this administration and that his eugenicist ideology threatens the lives of millions of people www.advocate.com/politics/dem...
As long as guns are easily available to crazy people, mass killings directed at so-called soft targets will continue. This is a fact. Countries where it's more difficult for crazy people to obtain guns have less shootings. This is also a fact. Do with these facts as you will.
It never happens with GOP, but too damn often in our party folks try to build themselves up by tearing Dems down. You can demand better from us without pissing all over the house we’ve built together. I’m sick of it. If you make a name for yourself by trashing the party, I’m calling you out.
CINDY MCCAIN: “The desperation is overwhelming.”
Meiselas: I go through Trump’s messages he sends—like this one from this morning: "Do you want a DOGE check? Tell me here." The email says, "Should bonus revenue from tariffs go back to the American people via a check signed by Trump?" In addition to being fraud, they got their frauds confused.
If Ashli Babbitt's parents really wanted to avenge her death they would, instead of pitifully whitewashing her legacy, be suing Fox News for filling their child's gullible head with dangerous nonsense that directly led to her death.
If RFK jr would stand up at ANY medical conference and spouts his pseudoscience-cult BS, he would be laughed off stage. Where TF are these same physicians now? Every single doctor in the country must take a stand against this guy.
Portugal President Marcelo Rebelo de Sousa, bless him for saying it out loud. "The utmost leader of the biggest global superpower, objectively, is a Russian asset. I'm saying that, objectively speaking, the new American leadership has strategically favoured the Russian Federation." #Krasnov 🇵🇹
I know it’s not productive. But honesty is important. And I’m honestly so freaking angry at the people who weaponized COVID for political gain. Who criticized progressives for wearing masks too much. For sharing ridiculous propaganda about the vaccine while taking the vaccine. You should be ashamed.
BREAKING: Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey JUST CALLED FOR a statewide and federal ban on assault weapons. Who’s with him?
‼️‼️
There’s something afoot in Iowa! Second flip of a GOP state seat there this year. Well done!
DO NOT PUT CHILDREN ON TV TALKING ABOUT A SHOOTING THEY JUST LIVED THROUGH The media who do this are heartless bastards
As an Air Force veteran, I am appalled that funeral honors are being afforded to Ashli Babbitt. She surrendered that right when she chose to participate in a violent act of insurrection. This administration has no moral compass and no shame.
School just started, and we are already mourning two children killed and dozens more injured as they prayed during mass. It doesn’t have to be this way. Congress must act to keep our kids safe.
The phone number for the U.S. Capitol switchboard is (202) 224-3121.
