This is an actual exchange from a VP who took an oath to defend the constitution and, as a citizen, is expected to abide by the law. May we one day have accountability for the grotesque lawlessness of this regime.
This was meā¦telling someone to have a good evening at like 3 pm today. Iāve forgotten how to people.

Sincere condolences. We never have enough time with our fur babies.
RFK Jr. rolled out that old chestnut again about how healthy Americans were in the 60ās, so hereās a fact check. In 1965: -42% of American adults smoked; itās 11% now. -The infant morality rate was 24.7/1000; itās 5.6/1000 now. -Overall life expectancy was 70 years; it's about 77 years now.
Meanwhile, back in realityā¦
Of course they will. I have no doubt.
They keep losing in court because everything theyāre doing is illegal
As a parent, aunt, uncle, grandparent, human beingāif you donāt feel for this young woman and see the injustice here, youāre dead inside. Deported to Guatemala. Sheās an honor student, a track star. She doesnāt even speak Spanish. And this isnāt the worst story out there, not by a long shot.
Oh, Idk, Trump seems very aware of what happenedā¦.
The Trump administration used Benny Johnson's claims that his house was "burned to the ground" and that "people were murdered in my front yard" to justify its federal takeover of DC. @kenbensinger.bsky.social found out that Johnson made it all up. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/30/b...

NEW: The trump administration attempted to remove 600 terrified unaccompanied minors to Guatemala in the middle of the night on a holiday weekend. Judge Sooknanan stopped it. My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/the-sookna...
I'm still waiting for the relentless onslaught of media demands for a press conference and calls to resign.
My reporting uncovered the existence of DoJ training videos instructing FBI personnel on how to flag Trumpās name in the Epstein files. Iām suing to get the videos under FOIA. substack.com/@muellershew...
Oh yum!
"The first wave of grocery-price increases will likely hit this winter...prices could rise 50% to 100% by early next year..." Which is what every competent economist has been saying for over a year now. Throttling supply of goods & labor, unsurprisingly, means prices go up. #EconSky
This is so importantā¦ Sharon has been tracking license plates on cars driven by ICE agents, and sheās finding they donāt match the vehicles. In other words, ICE is using secret, illegal tacticsājust like we suspected. REMINDER: the DMV is not a federal agency. @governor.ca.gov š§µ
An American President messing with free elections because the leader of Russia told him to, is what we call a Russian Agent.
We drove throughout southern France about 12 years ago using paper maps. Loved every minute of it. Maps with handwritten notes are great souvenirs. š.
I feel this in my soul. š. We downsized from a 3BR house to a small, 2BR apartment. I love clever storage options.
I made the mistake of zooming in on this. How can anyone take this seriously?
JFC.
The CDC shooting didnāt even really register in the news and the details are absolutely insane
This wasnāt just a security breach, documents obtained by NPR from a hotel guest who found them on a printer revealed something even more disturbing: a planned luncheon in honor of Vladimir Putin. The menu literally read, āIn honor of his excellency Vladimir Putin.ā
All of this. š
If youāre under any illusions about what an authoritarian personality cult the GOP has become, theyāre not hiding it:

Justā¦ugh. He looks so ridiculously weak. Itās embarrassing.
AMAZING!!!
Epic.
Not only did federal goons show up to try and intimidate our governor, they did so on hallowed ground. Gov. Newsom was speaking at the Democracy Center at the Japanese American National Museum, which I helped found so we do not repeat the horrors and injustices of the past. Shameful.
Throwing a sandwich at a cop: felony. Beating a cop unconscious with a flag pole: tourist behavior.
Newsom: He is a failed president. Who else sends ICE at the same time while having a conversation like this? Someone who is weak, broken. His weakness is masquerading as a strength. The most unpopular president in modern history.

So hang onā¦. Trump is going to offer to open up FUKKIN ALASKA TO THE RUSSIANS?? Wow. Letās see republicans defend this
My reporting has come to the attention of Ghislaine Maxwellās attorney. Hereās the response I provided to the @thedailybeast.bsky.social
The woman petitioning SCOTUS to overturn marriage equality in the name of the sanctity of marriage is on her fourth husband.
This is A+ trolling
NEW: In June, ProPublica reported that the FDA has given more than 20 foreign factories a special pass to send drugs to the U.S. even though they were made at plants the agency had banned. Today, weāre publishing a list of those exempted drugs.
Clearly this is not about making DC, or any of us, safer.

National Guard deployed to protect the Epstein Files.
He will bus them to the West Coast. I have no doubt.
I donāt understand the motivation here. Is he testing this out for future use? Is he trying to get folks used to the idea of martial law for when he uses it to postpone elections? Is he trying to incite violence like he did in LA but failed, or is this just police state stuff?
I have a medication that my insurance charges me almost $400 copay for every 3 months, but if I buy it without insurance from Cost Plus itās $120. Makes zero sense to me. Of course, if I do that I wonāt whittle away on my $10k deductible at all.
Wow!
The CEO of a a multi-trillion dollar company went to the White House, openly handed the US president a gift made of gold, and his company got a special exemption to tariffs the president has illegally imposed. Also, the Founders took bribery so seriously the Constitution bans it 3 separate times.

I'm kind of shocked that none of the ice guys have passed out or gone cyanotic from lack of oxygen in those masks
Hello journalists. If you report this you gotta say that under the Constitution he has no power to do it. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Idiots who believe science is witchcraft are dismantling everything brilliant minds have created. You are being forced back to the Stone Age by imbeciles who subjugate women, think whites are superior, pray to invisible sky daddies and canāt tell their heads from their asses. Rise up, America!

This whole story is insane. Tesla apparently did everything it could to avoid providing the data it had about its Autopilot crash. This is just a snippet and there's a lot more. electrek.co/2025/08/04/t...
I think I saw maybe one other person on my very full flight, besides me, wearing a mask.
RECAP OF THIS WEEK: 1. Trump said Epstein āstoleā 14-year-old Virginia Guiffre from him. 2. Trump gave convicted child trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell immunity and moved her to a luxury prison. 3. Major news outlets confirm the FBI employed 1,000 agents to scour 100,000 documents to redact Trump.

Itās so hard being in the sandwich generation. And I donāt even have kids!
SCOOP: We filed a Freedom of Information Act Request and received hundreds of pages of documents about the system access DOGE members Edward Coristine and Donald Park received at the Small Business Administration. But nested in there was something even bigger... www.wired.com/story/edward...
Itās insane that we live in a country where folks can walk around in the street with an AR-15.
Me too. šš»š
Starmer is thinking what we are thinking and what most of the world is thinking.
Just soās weāre all clear, almost 3/4 of everything we buy from Europe is now 15% more expensive.

OMG. Yes! This is something I would do.
Waste, Fraud, and Abuse.
Convicted predators who rape and abuse children shouldnāt qualify for pardon consideration. A president who canāt immediately say āabsolutely notā when I asked if heās considering such a pardon should be hounded out of office.
What an unfortunate placement for that button system!!
THIS.
Trumpās corrupt DOJ is going to put out a statement full of lies by sex trafficker Maxwell who is trying to get out of prison, while refusing to release the statements of the victims and witnesses which would prove sheās lying. DOJ is now siding with sex traffickers over victims.
Casts Mike Johnson's decision to cancel votes and flee in a somewhat different light. Would LOVE to know when he was informed that this was coming www.wsj.com/politics/jus...
My reaction to that completely batshit press briefing by Tulsi Gabbard in which she accused Obama of ātreasonous conspiracyā is that whatever is in the Epstein files about Trump must be really really bad
Omg. I love you, Jamelle. ā¤ļøšš
It was a PRIVATE COMPANY that provides ATC at the tower that nearly caused Delta 3788 and a USAF B-52 bomber to collide, not FAA air traffic controllers! Now... do you really want a private company to be the responsible authority to tell you when to take shelter due to a tornado?
Yes!! Retired nurse hereā¦we need more of this energy. šā¤ļø
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.
THIS!!!
Colbert comes out swinging. Gonna be a fun 10 months...
When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.
The amazing thing about brave people speaking out is that it inspires others to do the same by creating a permission structure. Since I published this article 4 hours ago, I've heard from multiple sources confirming what's in it. www.muellershewrote.com/p/the-epstei...
My husband took me to see Cats as a surprise. Because of this, I was convinced for almost 25+ years that I HATED musicals. Until I saw Hamilton. Cats f*king sucks.
Epstein victim Maria Farmer: āIvana was [Ghislaineās] best friendā¦ Sheād drive by schoolsā¦ get [girlsā] phone numbersā¦ Everybody knew what they were doing.ā To shut her up, āthey gave me one of those cheap bracelets Ivana was selling on QVC.ā
I bet they were...š

The thing with the Epstein files is that alot of people are struggling for the first time with the idea that the most obvious person in the world to be involved with the Epstein files that was already repeatedly shown to be with Epstein and doing Epstein stuff might somehow be connected with Epstein
Colbert has the highest ratings of any late night host. "Financial reasons" my ass. This is political.
