Hillary Clinton on the midterms: "When they eliminated the enhanced premium tax credit for the ACA, that hits very soon, in the next 30-60 days. Healthcare costs for million of Americans are going up 75% ... so reality is actually gonna bite ... 'okay, who is in charge now?'"
Newsom: "I fear that we will not have an election in 2028 -- I really mean that in the core of my soul -- unless we wake up to the code red, what's happening in this country, and we wake up soberly to how serious this moment is."
Jimmy Kimmel: “Maybe most of all, I want to thank the people who don’t support my show and what I believe, but support my right to share those beliefs anyway. People I never would have imagined, like Ben Shapiro, Clay Travis, Candace Owens, Mitch McConnell, Rand Paul. Even my old pal Ted Cruz.”
Hillary Clinton: "Good lord -- the things that have been said about me, the lies that have been propagated. If I had only known I could call up the FCC chair and say, 'Take this person off the air! Off with his head!' You have to laugh about it so you don't cry."
The two of them are perfect for each other; both have shown no signs of having a soul.
a new mRNA therapy apparently can cut the rate of Huntington's disease progression by ~75%. yet more miracle shit www.bbc.com/news/article...
BREAKING: Democrat Adelita Grijalva has won the special election in AZ-7 to fill her late father's US House seat. The discharge petition to release the Epstein files needs one more signature, and she's expected to sign it. www.nbcnews.com/politics/202...
A federal judge, Rita F. Lin, has ordered the National Institutes of Health to release hundreds of millions of dollars in research funding that had been frozen at the University of California, Los Angeles. Thank you, Judge Lin!
800 detainees are missing after being held in Alligator Alcatraz in July, showing no record of their location in ICE’s database. Other detainees have been mistakenly deported or sent to detention centers thousands of miles away. The cruelty is the point.
Nothing to see here. Just Tylenol’s lawyers warming up…🔥
I’m shocked.
Lawyers Report Disappearance of Hundreds of Alligator Alcatraz Detainees From ICE Database: 'It's a Black Hole' The Miami Herald reported that by late August about 800 detainees no longer appeared in ICE's database, while another 450 were listed with no location
Fact-checkers working hard to keep up…
Kamala Harris on The View on election night: "That night -- I grieved in a way that I have not since my mother died. The pain was not at all about losing a race. I knew what it was going to mean for the country ... all I could say over and over was 'my God, my God, my God.' It was very difficult."
I can’t tell you exactly how I know but after sixty years in and around politics I’ve developed a sixth sense, and my sixth sense tells me the tide is now turning on Trump. This past week did it. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/the-sleeping-giant-is-awakening
Okay. So this is wholly on the Republican controlled government then.
This is delusional but you don’t have to read the whole thing. Boils down to: he’s shutting down the government because he thinks he’s a king.
Sens. Jon Ossoff and Raphael Warnock are asking Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem for answers after more than a dozen people died in immigration detention, as the department rushes to expand.
I’m autistic. Not because of Tylenol. Not because of vaccines. Not because of some headline. I’m autistic because that’s how my brain works. Stop treating us like a problem. Start listening to us.
So now we know the company that owns Tylenol didn’t buy any Trump crypto.
Trump & RFK Jr’s unhinged autism presser, Homan bribery denial vs leaked FBI docs, Disney caves on Kimmel, Miller channels Goebbels at Kirk memorial, & Trump bails out Argentina. All and more in today’s Bulletin.
Trump is aggressively ignorant. He does not learn, actively resists it, and has surrounded himself with people who enable his stupidity.
I love this profile of @katmabu.bsky.social from @knibbs.bsky.social for the WIRED politics issue. "Her candidacy is one truly of the moment, not just enmeshed with but fueled by the collision between internet culture and mainstream politics."
I cannot stress this enough. We are protesting Broadview because of the human rights violations happening within the ICE facility. If they are willing to assault me on camera, imagine what they are doing to detainees behind boarded-up windows.
Tylenol is about to win the biggest lawsuit in all of American history. I can promise you that. Remember this day.
Let's do this. Fight. @governor.ca.gov
He betrayed his oath as a physician and sold out the country when he voted to confirm RFK Jr, knows damn well he’s a dangerous quack, but keeping Trump neutral in his primary is his highest priority.
@petebuttigieg.bsky.social Had to take a pic of my thoughts as it was too many characters to reply…it is our right and I know it will take time. We the People hold the power and we need to use it
What would a better government look like to you? How could we build toward it — practically, peacefully, and sustainably?
Important to note that Congress has never passed any law giving the President authority to designate anything as a “domestic terrorist organization.” As a result, this would appear to have no direct legal effect beyond acting as a statement of policy for the Executive Branch.
MELVIN: The president repeatedly did say though that he would end the war on day 1, and we are some 250 days into the administration MARCO RUBIO: Yeah, but that's not up to us to end the war MELVIN: Repeatedly on the campaign trail he said he would end it on day 1
@abdulelsayed.bsky.social: "All of them know what [Trump's] saying is ridiculous. Not one of them had the presence of mind to be like, dude you are one dumb motherfucker... Part of me is like, when do we say the emperor has no clothes?"
Imagine if the public never had the chance to learn about the Pentagon Papers. The Defense Department's crack down on reporting is an egregious assault on the free press, a critical pillar of our democracy.
Abolish ICE
Notably and unusually, neither Fox News or Newsmax is carrying Trump's autism press conference live
Voters in southwest Arizona are highly likely to elect a new Democratic House member in a special election today. That would-be lawmaker plans to become the 218th and clinching supporter of a bipartisan effort to force public disclosure of federal investigative files related to Jeffrey Epstein.
Aaron, I just want to say how much we appreciate you keeping us informed, even when it’s not easy to have those conversations. Thank you!
This story confirms what I’ve heard from the few conservative pro-ICE people I still talk to. They don’t like her either because they think she’s a terrible leader who spends all her time doing stuff for TV.
It is really disheartening to see the men who are in charge of science and healthcare in the United States stand before us all and spew misinformation about autism. To claim that genetic background isn’t the overwhelming contributor to autism is egregious.
The real reason Disney restored Kimmel's late-night show? We, the people, have extraordinary power. Let me explain. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/the-deeper-story-behind-americas
Hey a thing I really don’t want to get lost here is that while Tylenol doesn’t cause autism, IT’S FINE TO BE AUTISTIC. Let’s not grant them the premise that autism should be eradicated in our way to correct the science, okay? Okay.
The Pentagon Papers case gives us important insight into why having a free press matters so much. This week has taught us that we have a role to play in protecting the 1st Amendment, & (to quote a woman who would have made a great president), when we fight, we win. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...
This ought to be engraved somewhere.
BREAKING: A federal judge ordered the Trump administration to restore $500 million in UCLA medical research grants. The grants were suspended over allegations of campus antisemitism, use of race in admissions, and recognition of transgender identities.
I still am stunned, years later, that dozens of cops at Uvalde waited 77 minutes to kill the shooter while kids died. Has ANYONE been held accountable?
BREAKING: Trump claims acetaminophen use during pregnancy may cause autism
What I want to know is if this is the first time Homan has accepted a bribe. In a normal Administration, he would be immediately fired and a full forensic investigation conducted. But in this corrupt Administration, they’ll lie and deflect.
Tylenol is about to be rich from the Fed govt after the ABSOLUTELY for certain lawsuit
NEWS: @democracyforward.org has filed a FOIA requesting the DOJ & FBI to release the recording of Trump’s “Border Czar” Tom Homan allegedly pocketing $50K from undercover agents
"Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear. Remember that." Looking forward to seeing Jimmy back on the air.
BIG at SCOTUS: Court grants Trump's request to immediately fire Rebecca Slaughter from the FTC **AND** announces it will consider overruling the 90-year precedent that (along with a statute) otherwise protect her from being sacked. Justice Kagan writes a dissent, joined by Sotomayor & Jackson.
Meiselas: Trump and the MAGA Republicans want a shutdown. That’s why Johnson is literally sending Republicans into hiding—just like they did over the summer to hide the Epstein files.
There is only one way to resolve this. RELEASE THE HOMAN TAPES!!!
OLIVER: “In Russia, when Putin rose to power, TV satirists were among his first targets… Putin was driven to madness by how he was mocked on a puppet show… the lesson is it’s not safe to let one show slide because there are currently others.”
Bob Iger has a real chance to be a hero here and say “Fuck you. Make me.” to the FCC by reinstating Kimmel. I’ll sign back up for Disney+ if he does. Until then, keep canceling your subscriptions!
There are 340 MILLION OF US. Don’t you dare get despondent. STAND UP. And go GET YOUR COUNTRY BACK. Please. Let us not cower. This is all absolutely ridiculous. Come on now.
🚨 Some of the best trolling of the FCC I could have imagined — being released. Adam Kinzinger is speaking truth to power. A MUST watch.
“.. US Attorneys around the country must ask themselves whether they are willing to become just another instrument of political power. .. Each must be prepared to resign rather than baselessly punishing the president’s enemies ..” @opinion.bloomberg.com www.bloomberg.com/opinion/arti...
Howard Stern says he feels for Disney, but he’s canceling Disney+. “I’m trying to say with my pocketbook that I do not support what they’re doing with Jimmy.” x.com/sternshow/st...
I'm surprised NBC hasn't been forced to fire this journalist yet
Many studies have shown that there is no relationship between MMR vaccine and the development of autism. Here are two of the best. This one followed every single child born in Denmark from 1991 through 1998 (n=537,303). There was no association.
Susan, I hope I look as good as you at 102!
Thousands of Ukrainian children have been kidnapped by Russia. We cannot let them be used as bargaining chips. That's why I joined Senators Graham, Blumenthal and Britt to introduce new bipartisan legislation to increase pressure on Russia to release these kids — now.
This is quite the post. 1. He unambiguously directs his AG to go after those who investigated him for his crimes 2. He admits being influenced by online chatter He is mob bossing out in the open, because he knows he has corrupted every federal law enforcement agency into submission.
Cutie pie Mariska // Captain Olivia Benson
This could be “the largest public corruption scandal in the history of the United States"—amounting to a $2B bribe from an Emirati royal and the sale of the world’s most valuable artificial intelligence chips to the UAE, despite national security concern. trib.al/iZEOnGq
🚨 BREAKING: Trump’s DOJ shut down an FBI probe after agents caught Border Czar Tom Homan on tape taking $50,000 in cash from undercover operatives posing as contractors in exchange for promised gov’t contracts. MSNBC’s Carol Leonnig & Ken Dilanian with a massive scoop. Link in reply.
"St. Mary’s Sacred Heart Hospital in rural northeast Georgia will close its labor and delivery unit next month... "The closure is one of Georgia's first casualties of the GOP budget reconciliation package, colloquially known as the 'big beautiful bill'... www.newsfromthestates.com/article/rura...
BREAKING: Trump's border czar Tom Homan was investigated for accepting $50,000 from undercover FBI agents. Trump's DOJ shut it down. www.msnbc.com/msnbc/news/t...
1D chess.
Just imagine when these 'men' do to women when they're not on camera.
🚨Governor Newsom said, no more masks. “What are you afraid of?” California legislators have written a bill, it has been passed, and signed. 👏🏻More👏🏻Of👏🏻This!
“Thus far, there is no evidence connecting the suspect with any left-wing groups.” www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...
If this were discovered in a leaked email and published in the New York Times, it might get more attention. But Trump just tweets it out, and most people move on with their day. This is blatant corruption. Blatant weaponization. It is undeniably an impeachable offense.
so the president just tweeted out an offense worse than watergate, we all realize that right?
Oof!
Deport this MFer.
BREAKING: Three federal agents just leaked the government has ZERO evidence linking Charlie Kirk's killer to ANY left wing groups. 🤷🏽‍♀️ Sorry JD, Stephen, Donald, and other MAGAs foaming at the mouth for a civil war... Reality doesn't fit your narrative! - Really America
Well well well, will you look at this… Criminal illegal alien this, criminal illegal alien that, and just like all the others in that regime he’s yet another hypocritical criminal. Tom Homan is being exposed.
Didn’t the Soviets build Bagram?
ICE denies using excessive force in Broadview, Illinois. Never mind the videos…
There’s no hiding the political retaliation and weaponization. It’s all out in the open.
Gavin Newsom: "I'll be signing a bill, the first in the nation, saying enough to ICE, unmask. What are you afraid of? You're going to go out and you're going to do enforcement? Provide an ID.Tell us what agency you represent."
There is no world in which it is normal for the president to publicly call upon his attorney general to hurry up and prosecute his political foes. It’s like the Watergate tapes but posted on social media. Let’s get a grip on what’s happening here.
The lesson of history is that tyrants cannot be appeased. Appeasement only feeds their insatiable hunger for power. Tyrants prey on people who feel unsafe and vulnerable. But without mass submission, a tyrant is powerless.
RFKjr is deliberately trying to cull Americans in large numbers. Scientific and rational thought can reach no other conclusion.
I guess modern history began in 2017.
Good for you, Mayor Biss!
Vote with your dollars.
What can you even say?
