You’d think that the sitting President of the United States being credibly implicated in the world’s most nefarious pedophilia scandal would be a much bigger deal.

The “problem” with vaccines? They so effective at preventing deaths that they create generations of people that question whether disease was a problem in the first place because they have never experienced the horrors of a world without vaccines.
Pritzker: It appears they are amassing ICE officers… It’s been reported that about 300 officers are planning to come in and do what they did in LA — terrorize neighborhoods and cause mayhem. Their plan is to create enough chaos on the ground that troops will have to be called in
💥 The United States blew up a boat carrying 11 human beings. Due process, a core foundation of American politics, is now dead...along with the people in that boat.
RFK Jr. wants to "make America healthy again." So he's doing that by dismantling federal health agencies and firing civil servants who inspect our food, track infectious diseases, and research life-saving treatments and vaccines. Do I have this right?
McGovern: "You guys think you work for Trump ... Let me repeat -- every single Republican on the Rules Committee voted against releasing the Epstein files. Every single one. We heard last night that all Republicans want full transparency. But that's just not true."
It’s not possible to announce your guilt any louder than ordering a military flyover of the White House to disrupt Epstein survivors speaking out for justice.
The bipartisan Restore Trust in Congress Act is a necessary step to ban Members of Congress and their families from engaging in insider trading. It is time to pass this bill and make it clear to the American people that their elected officials put them first.
They keep losing in court because everything they’re doing is illegal
The 100 lowest-paying US corporations spent $644B on stock buybacks from 2019 to 2024. Buybacks artificially boost share prices and inflate CEO pay. The typical worker at these companies earned $35k last year. Meanwhile, the average CEO was paid $17.2M See the problem?
Epstein survivors say they’re compiling their own client list. “We know who abused us. We saw who came and went. This list will be survivor-led—for survivors”
The president is using the military to dismantle cities that didn't vote for him The president is using the military to distract from women speaking out against his and Jeffrey Epstein's sexual abuses. We are not living in ordinary times. Extraordinary responses are called for.
I have gotten in hot water for using the term "failed state" to describe the US as there are historical conditions that have to be met for the term to be accurate, so let's just say we're in the on-deck circle
Pop Quiz:
Your periodic reminder that mRNA vaccines are a scientific and public health game-changer. Those that have been approved have passed stringent efficacy and safety checks. They protect you and your child against potentially fatal diseases. You may, however, get a sore arm.
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.
We’re back in session after Speaker Johnson let us out early at the end of July, feeling the pressure from our subpoenas for the Epstein files. Today, @oversightdemocrats.house.gov sat down with survivors who endured horrific abuse. What we heard was beyond disturbing. (1/2)
To Chicago comrades & anyone else facing possible federal occupation: The National Guard is standing around for photo ops. DHS, ICE, FBI, DEA, ATF, are working with local police to terrorize & kidnap our neighbors. Organize accordingly.
The president is sending the military to control American cities and if you're a reporter who's framing that illegal power grab as "pushing the boundaries of constitutionality" or "acting boldly to fight crime" or whatever, please go find another line of work where you won't get us all killed.
All you military and veterans working for ICE, you are a traitor to your oath! Veterans have established a Command Post at Union Station to Remind Guardsmen who they work for ... You. www.youtube.com/watch?v=QE72...
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.
It is insane to me that the richest man in the world is using his global megaphone to call for millions of British people to be rounded up and deported (including my family) and somehow this isn’t even news.

Hey Sen. James Lankford, stop your Orwellian doublespeak. We're not "jumping to conclusions" – RFKjr is a dark tetrad. He knows nothing about human healthcare. He's systematically trying to cull the American public. Remove him from office. Immediately.
Taken an hour ago. Healthy and fit as ever.
“Warfighters” 🙄
Time to do my weekly passing of the campaign hat. If you can donate something, regardless of how much, it’ll really help. If you’ve already donated something, you’re awesome! If you can’t donate, you can still sign up to get email updates for what the campaign will be doing. Have a great Labor Day!
10-12 absolute cowards attack one guy with a camera. Beyond disgraceful indeed.
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.
They think we’re idiots
This is never going away, is it?
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.
The Samara Oil Refinery has suspended operations after it was hit by 30 Ukrainian drones yesterday. #explodey
“…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...
It costs taxpayers over $1 million a day for them to be there. And people complain about a $15 minimum wage for the actual garbage cleaners and gardeners. Go figure.
The warfighters in DC got the trash picked up, now time to mulch.
The damage this man has done is incalculable.
💯💯💯💯🎯🎯
Federal agents detained two firefighters in Washington state... ...while the firefighters were in the middle of fighting one of the largest wildfires in the country. Under Trump’s regime, cruelty takes precedence over everything else.
"Ashli Babbitt was a grown ass adult who made a series of conscious, ill-advised decisions to engage in treasonous behavior, and she got exactly what she deserved. She was a traitor. She was a threat to national security. There is no nuance needed here."

Hi, immunologist here: (a scientist who studies immune & inflammatory processes) RFK Jr is talking absolute bullshit when he says he can “see in kids faces that they have inflammation” That’s NOT how immunology works. He is an anti-science profiteer. Start calling him such.
The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.
Massive walkout underway at CDC. RFK jr. must resign so that we can be safe.
We forget that he isn’t working for our country. He was put there to destroy it.
The United States, just months before its 250th birthday as the world’s leading democracy, has tipped over the edge into authoritarianism and fascism.
When the biggest red flag is Trump missing golf for 2 weeks straight… 👀 Maybe the ‘health crisis’ isn’t just his. It’s ours if he’s in charge. ⛳️🚩 #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice #BlueCrew #Resist
CHAOS ERUPTS AT CDC CDC Director Susan Monarez has been ousted after RFK Jr. demanded she change her policy on the COVID vaccine. Top officials from the Vaccine Unit, Zoonotic Division, and the Chief Medical Officer are resigning, per reports. Horrifying news for public health.
Litter is definitely a massive emergency that warrants mobilizing units from several states’ National Guard, arming them heavily and sending them into the streets of the capital.
I didn't think it was possible to hate these fascist fuckers any more than I already do yet they manage to make me want to break things daily with the never-ending sadistic cruelty.
I realize NO ONE else has this take, but I'm gonna say it: The National Guard are scabs now. These are potentially union jobs, many of which were outsourced, now they're insourced, but without union labor.
Never before in our history has one man exercised such unbridled discretion affecting the lives of so many of us, while simultaneously preventing others — Congress, the courts, the American people — from having a say or even knowing what he’s going to do next. This is what dictatorship looks like.
Trump now has the “warfighters” picking up trash near the White House. www.fox5dc.com/news/nationa...
Making them wear high-visibility vests over camo is such a good joke you couldn’t write it
Krasner: So, if what you have is a group of ICE agents, or even the military, coming into Philadelphia and committing crimes—assaults that are illegal, kidnapping, unlawful restraint, obstruction of the administration of justice—they can be prosecuted.
I asked for the latest COVID vaccine this week at my VA clinic and they didn't have any. They said they are "out" but maybe more is on the way. The don't have an ETA.
🚨BREAKING: Third Circuit STRIKES DOWN Pennsylvania requirement that mail-in ballots that arrive in undated or misdated return envelopes be discarded. Court holds that Constitution requires they be counted. A big victory for our clients DSCC and DCCC and PA voters!
Turns out some of the “we want small government” people kiiiinda wanted the government to be just one guy.
A man, near the White House, who describes himself as a "retired disabled combat veteran," after burning an American flag tells bystanders "I am being detained because I expressed my First Amendment rights."
Snoop went from Gin & Juice to whining about a lesbian kiss in a Pixar movie. Imagine surviving decades of censorship, police harassment, and being labeled a “threat to society”… only to turn around and fear visibility for others who’ve been marginalized just like you.
J.B. Pritzker smashing through the fascism wall like he's the Kool Aid Man
Trump says he’s going to allow 600,000 students from China to come to the US because he has a great relationship with President Xi and it’s very important to allow them to study here. Which is the opposite of what they’ve been saying for months.
Walz says Harris "would have been a fantastic president... we wouldn't wake up every day to a bunch of shit on TV. We would wake up to an adult w/ compassion & dignity doing the work, not a manchild crying about whatever is wrong with him. May his fat ankles find something today. Petty as hell."
White folks who are still clinging to narrow, outdated thinking; you are fossils in today’s political climate. In a world that’s becoming more Black, more Brown, more multicultural by the hour, your way of thinking is dead and buried, even if you don’t realize it yet. 👇🏾
À better measure of the US economy would be how the bottom 33% are making do on their income, rather than how the top 10% are making do in the stock market.
They gaslit you all throughout the election.
Kristi Noem and her squad of geniuses are painting the American side of the wall black—apparently to keep us from escaping.

Kharkiv right now ❤️🩹 I’m almost crying. We’re banned from organizing celebrations. Warned against crowds and gatherings due to constant russian bombings. But we’re alive, and we’ll keep living. That’s our collective "fuck you" to russia.
Just another yes-man lackey who doesn’t care about the history or the mission of the agency he was appointed to lead. He could never do the job of any of us at the agency so he sees no issue with destroying it. bigthink.com/starts-with-...
Not listening to Black women is going to be the reason America collapses. That is all.
The State of Illinois at this time has received no requests or outreach from the federal government asking if we need assistance, and we have made no requests for federal intervention.
The latest thing Trump has done to DC: Scare the visitors away. Damaging all the businesses, large and small, that depend on them. Along the National Mall today, 1pm, on a stunningly beautiful Saturday afternoon in late August. (Article and more photos to come later today.)
Call me woke, but I’m ok with museums teaching that slavery was bad.

A look at the results of Texas' new Gerrymandered Representatives map. They claim it complies with the Voting Rights Act, but that's hardly credible. See for yourself. #ProudBlue www.texastribune.org/2025/08/20/t...
ICE, DC Police, Park Police, DHS, and HSI brutally arrested a man who refused to provide identification after being stopped for eating in public. Goons attempted to stop community members from recording his injuries during the incident.
Retirement age 'should' be 58, survey respondents say, on average per CNBC. Do you agree?

California Congressional candidate for CD- 32 Christopher Ahuja
I never thought I would see the day the United States military would rise up against the citizens they swore an oath to protect and defend, on American soil no less. Those who could not protect themselves, homeless people, veterans, no less. Shame on the military.
It’s all about sending a message. The raid is the message. It’s all about retribution. He is the retribution president. As with troops on our streets, it’s all about normalizing fascism. This is fascism. Fascism is here. Too many Americans are too “busy” to care. But it’s here.
Newsom: We got here because the President is struggling. We got here because the President is one of the most unpopular presidents in U.S. history. We got here because he recognizes that he will lose the election.
BREAKING: Texas Rep. Nicole Collier was literally forced off a PRESS CALL by cops — mid-sentence. Police told her it’s a felony to speak while on the House floor or even in the damn bathroom. That’s not procedure. That’s authoritarian muscle, in real time.
”No matter how dark it gets,” Jon Batiste told the crowd last night. “I know: We can win. We can win. We can win.”” Yes, we can. Let’s not lose sight of the good & motivated people in our country who remain committed to creativity, diversity, inclusion—& joy. www.americaamerica.news/p/america-wh...

A moment of gratitude for the men and women of the Minnesota National Guard. In just the last year, they’ve helped to fight wildfires, responded to devastating hurricanes down south, and combatted cyber crime. They always answer the call to serve their community.
