Can the media STOP referring to Jeffrey Epstein as a “financier”? The money he made came from SEX TRAFFICKING MINORS, RAPING CHILDREN, and BLACKMAIL. He was NOT a financier. I’ve seen at least five stories from three outlets refer to him this way in the past week. This is the latest from the Times:
Why is the Draft Dodger-in-Chief trying to drag us into a war with Venezuela? The claim is that drug cartels are so out of control they’ve been designated an international terrorist organization, so we need to send warships. But we’re denying Venezuelan’s asylum claims who fled for their lives. 🤔
Pritzker: "National Guard troops, any kind of troops, on the streets of American city don't belong unless there is an insurrection, unless there is truly an emergency. There is not."
This is a must read. Please read it and repost everywhere! 💯🎯👇 open.substack.com/pub/steadyst...
Listen… The Dictator in the WH needs to be removed. That’s the only demonstration of real accountability that will right this sinking ship. Pass it along. 🇺🇸🆘
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.
@jrogere.bsky.social thank you for sharing this!!! Let’s make this viral!!!

NEWSOM, to @karaswisher.bsky.social: “.. I just wanted to put a mirror up to the absurdity of all of this. .. I mean, it’s comical. .. embarrassing .. And I’m glad they’re melting down over it. Their situational unawareness is rather jaw-dropping, and we’ll keep at it.” nymag.com/intelligence...
So awkward to be living through a dystopian novel about techno-fascist billionaires who have banded together with white supremacists, Christian nationalists, and international dictators in an attempt to overthrow democracy and commit genocide, all to establish tech-enabled fiefdoms in their wake.
Americans once assumed their kids would be better off than they were. But business professor Scott Galloway says today's economic policies work to enrich Boomers and steal from younger generations.
Hubz is only three weeks from having surgery for colostomy, and his life has greatly improved already!! Resources such as your organization are so very helpful as we navigate this stage of his health journey. Thank you for all you do!
Timothy Snyder & other experts in authoritarianism need to form the coalition to launch the response citizens must take to combat this hostile takeover. Democratic norms are hurting us. These are not normal times, and dems are not responding effectively.
Ron. they don't care what YOU believe, they only care that the magats believe. Timothy Snyder has some lectures where he discusses this sort of new propaganda where it really does not matter at all how many lies you spew. The talk I'm listening to now. youtu.be/_LkXsW14qJQ?...
So we’re supposed to believe that the Truth Social posts over the last couple days that aren’t filled with terrible spelling and grammar, random capitalization and quotation marks where they don’t belong, with no threats or personal insults, are actually being written by Trump?

He’s on another QAnon posting spree tonight.
We want to apologize if it feels like we’ve been venting a lot lately. It’s just hard to ignore that nearly every move from this administration seems to be illegal, unlawful, or outright unconstitutional and yet nothing happens.
Kari Lake, a Trump ally now serving as acting chief of the agency that oversees VOA, posted on X that layoff notices were issued to 532 staff members.
Those that think we will eliminate waste and fraud by firing 300,000 federal workers in a single year are confused and ill-informed. Our government is simply weakened for the fascist takeover coming. Some say it’s already happened. #ProudBlue #Voices4Victory #Pinks
Just saying.
This firefighter arrived in the US at age 4, has been here for 19 years, was on track to legal status, and was on a crew trying to contain a major blaze (in Washington state, vs Oregon, fwiw.) h/t @joshuajfriedman.com www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
IMO, her expertise in dictators and authoritarian regimes has been largely ignored. The history is there. The methods are being replicated. She said people are comparing to hitler, but many methods were first used by Mussolini. This book is important & highly recommend her weekly Q&A.
Just participated in the weekly Q&A with Dr Ruth Ben-Ghiat on her Lucid substack. She told how she was at the park when she first heard trump say he could shoot someone in Time Square and lose no votes. She was instantly alarmed and rushed home to write an article warning of this language.
In case anyone is still wondering why Bolton was raided
It’s not often that I have unquestionably good news to share these days in our politics. But the Iowa special election results are amazing! And yes, I see them as a sign of something big afoot, with some important takeaways to consider. My happy write-up in the replies!
And you wonder why young women are getting more progressive.
And there it is.
Brilliant! 😂
“Make America Healthy Again” is off to a terrible start.
We are the only developed country where mass shootings happen on a regular basis. It doesn’t have to be this way.
He also said, “I can do anything I want, I’m the president of the United States.” The man wants to be king, but we became our own country to never again be ruled by one.
Quack is whack.
Troll level: Master.
When Trump claims he can ‘do anything’ as president, he wants us to take him at his word. And unfortunately, many do. But the reality tells another story: he is largely a paper tiger whose power is checked by four distinct forces out of his control.
Pay attention. Your family’s safety is on the line.
Well said 👏🏼
But it is the guns. Metal detectors and perimeter controls aren’t going to stop an armed maniac from shooting kids. Just like common sense won’t stop a Fox maniac from shooting his mouth.
Thank you, Mayor Frey 💔
Disgusting.

Trump appointed Judge Thomas Cullen slams “this concerted effort by the executive to smear and impugn individual judges who rule against it as both unprecedented and unfortunate.” It wages an unconstitutional war against the entire federal judiciary. Bad! www.nytimes.com/2025/08/26/u...
“It is more than hypothetically possible that Mr. Trump, when frustrated, will try to compel the obedience of state election officials by throwing the weight of the executive branch against them.” Constitutional limits on his power don’t mean anything to him. Scary!! www.nytimes.com/2025/08/24/o...
70 years ago today, 14-year-old Emmett Till, an African American from Chicago, was brutally murdered for allegedly flirting with a white woman four days earlier. When you see “MAGA,” realize THAT was the America Trumpers are saying was “great.” I want a GREATER America than that. We all should.
Dr. William Foege, 89, who helped end smallpox in the 1970s, recently wrote: RFK Jr.’s “words can be as lethal as the smallpox virus.” And his actions are more lethal still. He’s waging war on America. That’s an impeachable offense. He must be removed from office. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/27/h...
Are vaccines safe? Let's ask this guy who sounds like a dying refrigerator compressor
Have you noticed that this army of AI bots shit posting about Gavin Newsom almost all have the same stupid anime in their profile pic and say the same scripted shit? This could almost lead me to believe they are actually MAGAts who have figured out AI agents and that they need to be blocked. Hmmm?
You know Gavin Newsom is on a trolling roll when even Fox's Jessica Tarlov is applauding him.
Come on, this is so brilliant. "Kowgirl Kristi -- riding into America's nightares near you" High-five, Gavin Newsom! 🔥
We stand with Gavin Newsom, JB Pritzker and every other American willing to stand up to fascism and take back our country.
Gavin Newsom is throwing down the gauntlet against fascist dictator-wannabe Trump. Registered at registertovote.ca.gov 🙌💪👇
Gavin Newsom exposed today the fact that world leaders have met him and told him they laugh at Donald Trump behind his back. What an embarrassment. @governor.ca.gov Telling the world what we all are thinking. Goodnight and good morning

"More than 70 million Americans live in primary care shortage areas. The Association of American Medical Colleges projects a national shortfall of up to 86,000 physicians by 2036. No region is more vulnerable to this shortfall than rural Missouri." missouriindependent.com/2025/08/15/v...
Making them wear high-visibility vests over camo is such a good joke you couldn’t write it
"Pro-family" Republicans today: —"Thoughts & prayers" for kids shot as they prayed —Support masked agents kidnapping people, separating families —Unconditionally back Israel's genocide of Gaza, making thousands of orphans —Push out CDC officials trying to honor decades of science to protect kids
ICE took 2 firefighters OFF THE FUCKING FIRE LINE!?
It’s outrageous that Sec. Kennedy is trying to fire the CDC Director — after only a few weeks on the job — for her commitment to public health & vaccines. The Sen. HELP Committee must hold a hearing with Kennedy & the CDC Director as soon as possible. Vaccines save lives. Period.
Denmark issues first apology over forced contraception of Greenlandic women Prime minister admits ‘systemic discrimination’ after thousands of girls and women fitted with IUDs without consen go.shr.lc/45W3z1l
On @cnn.com AC360 I shared that Trump's targeting of officials who disagree with him could not be more transparent Cook. James. Schiff. Dugan. McIver. This is more like a police state than the United States, which is why Cook & the other cases will draw judicial skepticism
On the one hand, having the CDC crumble the same day the COVID vaccine is restricted & there was another mass shooting of children is pretty bad. On the other hand, 10-12 million people are about to be priced out of their healthcare coverage and another 12-14 million will have to downgrade theirs.
MASSIVE BREAKING: Kilmar Abrego Garcia can NOT be deported from the US until at least October ACCORDING to court order. Trump administration officials MUST testify under oath then.

She was brought to the US as an 8yo, worked hard, studied, earned a scholarship, planned to become a nurse. ICE kidnapped her. Held her for 6 MONTHS in a detention facility with conditions so miserable that she finally agreed to voluntarily move to Honduras, which her family left at gunpoint.
NEW: Yesterday, I posted that I was unable to get the COVID vaccine at my VA clinic, and many of you assured me that the new one would be available soon and that I was overreacting. I was not overreacting. I am no longer eligible for the vaccine. apnews.com/article/vacc...
This is just fucking unreal. Border Patrol made firefighters line up to check IDs DURING AN ACTIVE FIRE IN A REMOTE AREA. This administration literally will kill us all. www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news...
Thank a Scientist and/or Doctor today. They're pushing back against RFK Jr.'s quackery, & working to prevent his recs from gaining traction. Extra kudos to the journal that said NO when he demanded they retract a study that counters his narrative. (Get your shots, protect yourself from the madman)

Seems we have an effective framework to protect the public from misuse of a potentially lethal object. Fix this now.

Thoughts and prayers are as effective at keeping shooters out of schools as they are at keeping pedophiles out of the White House.
A new round of COVID vaccines has been approved for use this fall, but with significant new limitations, unless you’re 65 or over. Here’s what you should know.
"Trump is showing, with this insane rant, that he fully intends to maximally abuse presidential powers in every way possible to try to rig and swing the midterms. It’s not an accident that this is all happening while he’s militarizing cities." trib.al/ffQeBly
I decided to count how many people I've known personally in my lifetime who've received a cancer diagnosis. 27. If we all put just this number on our car bumper, we would collectively see how corporate greed is killing us.
