I think Matt Gaetz got a very disturbing free pass. Remember this from his Republican colleague?
Nigel Farage looks uncomfortable as Jamie Raskin uses his opening statement to absolutely demolish him
I wonder if this will deleteriously affect a certain former Harvard Law professor's ability to secure dinner reservations, party invites, or pierogis on Martha's Vineyard . . .
EXCLUSIVE: Susan Collins raked in $2 million from a billionaire private equity exec a day before she voted to advance Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill. Story: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...
The administration warned Republicans that voting to release more files on Jeffrey Epstein would be seen as “a hostile act.” Republican Rep. Thomas Massie is nevertheless leading the charge. trib.al/FVdZ8OM
Host: There are new calls this morning for RFK Jr.'s resignation, and those calls coming from inside HHS itself. More than 1,000 current and former HHS workers are making this demand in a letter released this morning. They say his leadership has "put the health of all Americans at risk"
The cover-up continues

HAPPENING NOW: Epstein survivor press conference. They deserve to be heard: www.youtube.com/watch?v=q6fU...
WATCH LIVE: Epstein Victims Press Conference in DC
Good
Can you share this? This is one hell of an ad from a Democrat running for US Senate against Susan Collins. We need to take back the Senate and have a real majority. Don’t forget Maine has ranked voting. We need great Democrats running. Don’t let her forget about Kavanaugh or Roe.
Dems "need to just go at this stuff and they need to *very* personalize it. I would be putting billboards in front of Mike Johnson's church, saying, does Mike Johnson support a pedophile? Child sex trafficker in a Club Fed?" Stuart Stevens joins Tim Miller:
Trump blaming AI after his own staff had already offered an explanation suggests that much of what dominates online discourse —like whether or not Trump is dying—doesn’t always reach the president’s ears. He later said, “If something happens really bad, just blame AI.” trib.al/PKdMDdf
I’m sure this is fine.
Today, we heard harrowing stories from survivors of Epstein's abuse. Epstein is dead, but the hurt & harm he caused is alive and well. We'll keep pushing for accountability, including a public Congressional hearing with survivors and the release of the full Epstein files.
The news cycle continues to feel like marinating in sewage
Huh. No mention of the $787.5M lie fine.
I’m supposed to believe the most litigious woman-hating POS on the planet doesn’t want to press charges? That’s….VERY interesting. Has anyone learned anything about the 19 year old woman Rudy is protecting?
Republican men standing with Trump against the Epstein victims to maintain the cover up.
The U.S. Supreme Court is being asked to decide if citizens can still enforce the Voting Rights Act, after a federal appeals court ruled that only the government — not private citizens — can sue to enforce protections against racial discrimination in voting. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
Mainstream media is always so scared to talk about Trump’s mental & physical health! But WE aren't! @joyannreid.bsky.social & I talk about traditional media's refusal to cover the realities of Trump, a possible JD Vance presidency, and the joy of independent media. youtu.be/HZ8oukRBtJE?...
A legal resistance led by a patchwork coalition of lawyers, public-interest groups, Democratic state attorneys general, and unions has frustrated Trump’s ambitions. @michaelscherer.bsky.social reports on the one anti-Trump resistance movement that’s actually working:
BREAKING EXCLUSIVE: Not only will Reps. Ro Khanna and Thomas Massie be at tomorrow’s press conference with the Epstein survivors — but Marjorie Taylor Greene will be there as well.
If Trump was innocent, he wouldn’t be fighting to block the release of the Epstein files.
EX-NYC MAYOR DE BLASIO: “Andrew Cuomo can never believably say he’s going to change the status quo in NYC — because he helped create it. @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social actually can do something about it. That’s why he won’t the primary.”
“This administration is backing off in ways that the President and Pam Bondi don’t want you to know about.” @skyeperryman.bsky.social joined @briefingwithpsaki.bsky.social tonight to discuss how we’re delivering for the American people in court.
REP. @yassaminansari.bsky.social on the bipartisan demand for the Epstein files: “This is the most corrupt administration in 🇺🇸 history, and this story shows it more than anything.”
6 words Abby Phillip was hoping @CNN would never make her say: “Ben Shapiro is at the table” 😕
Only 3% of the documents are new information, this is the GOP flooding the zone with already public documents to avoid releasing more #Epstein related information and files. Their play is to deny, distract, and deflect. #opdeatheaters
WOW. This is one of the original Alien Enemies Act cases going back to March. The conservative 5th Circuit has ruled Trump’s use of the Alien Enemies Act to disappear people to El Salvador was UNLAWFUL.
Scott Jennings and Ben Shapiro are currently both sitting at a panel table on CNN, not OANN. Seems like a pretty good barometer of where things are in this country. 😕🇺🇸
Congressional reporter says Trump is threatening Republicans not to back the bipartisan push for an Epstein files release vote…
Voters are angry and not letting up. Good.
Democrats just MASSIVELY overperformed in 2 Florida special elections. House 40: Harris +35 → RaShon Young +50 (75–25). Senate 15: Harris +23 → Lavon Bracy Davis +45 (73–27). That’s 15- and 22-point swings toward Democrats.
Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha
Our public schools went back to school today with heavy hearts. We can’t resign ourselves to believe that our little ones can’t be safe from guns in what should be the safest possible environment.

In a major setback to President Donald Trump’s attempt to purge independent agencies, the D.C. Circuit Court of Appeals refused to block a lower court order reinstating Democratic commissioner Rebecca Slaughter to the Federal Trade Commission. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
Trump turns up the threats and intimidation on his Epstein cover up.
Right now, no Republican in a swing district can hold a town hall because everyone in their district is showing up to scream at them. Democrats have a clear message: Republicans are cutting healthcare and jacking up the cost of living. It does not bode well for them heading into 2026.
Yeah, I don’t know …
If I were Susan Collins, I’d be “concerned.”
Great question. Tell Congress to take immediate action to reduce gun violence in our country here: https://bit.ly/3JUNAcf #ResistTrump
Well look at it from his perspective. He’s a moron so he’ll be mesmerized by Trump.
Mesmerized is not exactly the right word to describe it.

"It is nothing less than an Israeli wet dream: the ethnic cleansing of Gaza, financed by the outside world." Read @dianabuttu.bsky.social's latest about Trump's plan for post-war Gaza: zeteo.com/p/lets-call-...
In the coming days, we expect to see what's playing out in LA and DC happen in Chicago. These efforts are not about fighting crime or making communities safer. This is about Donald Trump testing his power and producing political drama to cover up his own corruption.
🚨BREAKING: President Donald Trump is preparing to deploy National Guard troops in the state over the governor’s repeated objections. Pritzker also warned Trump will soon launch large-scale immigration raids in Chicago. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

As many as 100 survivors of Jeffrey Epstein and other victims of sexual abuse are expected to attend a rally Wednesday in Washington, D.C. as a bipartisan Congressional effort gains steam to force the U.S. Department of Justice to make public its controversial files on the disgraced sex trafficker.
Texas state Sen. Charles Perry (R) apologized on the Senate floor Tuesday, after Democracy Docket reported last week on racist remarks he made about immigrants at a 2022 legislative hearing. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
California refuses to be scared into submission by the small men in the White House. No one in their right mind thinks the Trump Administration should launch yet another failed LA militarization.

Teachers are reportedly spending an average of $895 out-of-pocket on school supplies — a nearly 50% increase since 2015. Is there a “teacher shortage,” or a shortage of jobs that treat educators with the dignity, support, and pay they deserve? https://youtu.be/AbBbhoHRPSU?feature=shared
NEW: After Democracy Docket resurfaced a 2022 video of a Texas GOP lawmaker suggesting a way to deal with immigrants might be to “shoot, shovel and shut up,” he issues an apology on the Senate floor. From: @yuniorarivas.bsky.social
One thing Trump has really done a great job of is exposing Jake Tapper as a gutless pussy and a partisan.
Since returning to office, Trump has: -Stripped 1 million federal workers of collective bargaining rights -Reversed Biden's minimum wage hike for federal contractors -Gutted OSHA and frozen enforcement of a regulation protecting miners from lung disease "Pro-worker" president.
Today’s court ruling is what we’ve been warning about for months: Trump is unlawfully using the military to terrorize Americans, including kids and hardworking immigrants — many of whom have contributed to this country and are part of American families.
Gavin Newsom’s Press Office doesn’t miss lol
Proves yet again that even many Democratic leaders care only about keeping their jobs.
Pritzker: "Any rational person who has spent even the most minimal amount of time studying human history has to ask themselves one important question: once they get the citizens of this nation comfortable with the current atrocities committed under the color of law, what comes next?"
The last CR (allowed to advance to a vote by several democratic senators including Chuck Schumer) defunded DC by $1.1B to include law enforcement. I'll be writing and calling and screaming that the next continuing resolution IS NOT PASSED without FUNDING DC (among other things.)
Gov. Pritzker: Crime is down in Chicago. Murders are down by almost 50% in the last four years. Shootings are down 57%. Robberies down 34%. One violent crime is too many, and we have more work to do. We have made important progress on safety. There is no emergency that warrants deployment of troops
Nurses at University Medical Center New Orleans work tirelessly in dangerous conditions to provide the best care to their patients. They voted to form a union over 620 days ago & are still fighting for their first contract. Unacceptable. UMCNO must deliver a fair contract now.
NEW: In a huge win for South Dakota voters, a federal judge strikes down a state law that sought to make it harder for citizens to put issues on the ballot. The judge ruled the law was unconstitutional and a violation of free speech. From: @yuniorarivas.bsky.social
Over the long weekend, the Trump administration quietly tried to deport 76 unaccompanied children to Guatemala – ignoring laws protecting such minors from speedy deportations. Thankfully, a federal judge blocked the effort. The cruelty of this regime knows no bounds.
Pritzker: "I refuse to pretend that any of this is normal ... I refuse to fall into the pundit trap that demands we sacrifice vital constitutional rights if it's being done in the fake guise of fighting crime."
BREAKING: Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker says the Trump administration has begun staging the Texas National Guard for deployment to Illinois, and federal agencies will soon begin large-scale immigration raids in Chicago. From: @jaknutson.bsky.social
Lauren Boebert in 2023: “Colorado is the one and only home the Space Command has ever known and it will remain that way!”
Brian Stetler just told CNN that we were memeing about Trump's health this weekend to monetize speculation and make a quick buck on Bluesky. Are we supposed to be getting checks?

Under Dr. Oz, Medicare is launching a pilot program that will use AI to determine whether patients would be covered for certain procedures. Companies running the program will be paid a share of the savings from rejecting claims. Who in their right mind voted for this? No one.
Our country's founders put in place numerous checks on a potential future President if they were to act like an unhinged authoritarian, so they were ready for a monster like Trump. But what they did not predict was a compliant and subservient Congress that would let him do anything he wanted.
A Democratic super PAC is launching a $700,000 digital ad blitz slamming Susan Collins for opposing a bipartisan bill that would ban members of Congress from trading stocks. This ad accuses Collins of “the worst kind of greed… using insider information to trade stocks.” Please WATCH and SHARE. 👀
That about sums it up.

BREAKING: A federal judge blocks the Trump administration from using military troops in immigration raids or law enforcement operations in California, ruling the President's deployment of National Guard troops in Los Angeles earlier this year violated a federal law.
After its flagship crypto venture opened trading of a new digital currency Monday, the Trump family notched as much as $6 billion in paper wealth.
Get ready for this to happen when Trump deploys the Guard to Chicago.
Reporter: A new survey asks consumers whether or not they think that unemployment is going to go up over the next year. Back in November, just about 1 in 3 people said they were bracing for higher unemployment. It has come all the way up to 60% now. That is the highest since the Great Recession
Beyond pathetic.
Kristi Neom's "facts" are as authentic as her lips and hair extensions.
NYT reports TRUMP & MODI had a falling out because Modi wouldn’t back Trump’s lie that he brokered the India-Pakistan ceasefire — a lie 🇺🇸 media has let him get away with with even as India’s media has openly mocked him for it. Video: x.com/thetnholler/...

Happy Labor Day family! Union workers are the backbone of Boston and America. Solidarity forever. Together, we choose community over chaos, love over greed, & people over profit.
This should be getting far more attention from the media, and it should be investigated as a hate crime. A 14-year-old Black teen was targeted, beaten, and dehumanized with racial slurs by white teens while people stood around cheering. 1/4
You can read the study here It’s actually pretty positive www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...
You guys see where this is going? Right?
