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.
Every person, without exception, who claims they voted for King asshole “because of the economy” is lying. All of them. Not a single person voted for that criminal asswipe because of the economy. They voted for him because they wanted team white man to win and be in charge. That’s it.
Kressly: I expect in the next couple of weeks, this is going to get worse. You’re going to hear from the same administrative people who have gutted the expertise needed to promote child health — pushing false narratives like, “we need to look at the link between vaccines and autism.” That is a lie.

I'm just gonna flip on some corporate media really quick... ABC: ads CNN: ads Back to CNN: Trump's Chicago "immigration enforcement" MSNBC: Protests in Chicago Back to ABC: A "federal judge getting in the way of Trump's immigration crackdown" Back to CNN: Weekend travel Nothing about Trump MIA
On Thursday, President Trump issued a new executive order stripping additional federal workers of their union rights, including workers at NASA and the National Weather Service. This comes after other agencies, including HHS and the VA, have terminated union contracts.
Trump is costing the American taxpayers a million dollars a day deploying the National Guard for gardening and janitorial work on the D.C. streets. How about releasing the actual gardeners and janitors from ICE detention and letting the National Guard go back to their civilian jobs?
Thank you on this labor day!!
Chicago officials say they're hearing it will be days, not weeks, before National Guard troops like the ones patrolling Washington, D.C., arrive in their city despite their objections. Nancy Cordes...
The problem isn’t refugees on boats. The problem is oligarchs hoarding obscene amounts of wealth while most people fight to stay afloat. Wages aren't tied to inflation, so the working class keeps falling behind no matter how hard they work.
The ones screaming for zero separation of church and state are the same ones losing their minds when anyone from the church says anything they disagree with politically.

Medicare for all. Paid leave. Universal childcare. Break up corporate monopolies. Take on Wall Street greed. Get big money out of politics. Support unions. Raise wages. If Dems want to win back working people, this is the agenda.
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

An upcoming news conference with victims of Jeffrey Epstein could be “explosive,” one of the congressmen pushing for full release of the files on Epstein predicts. Democratic Rep. Ro Khanna said the victims’ accounts will force lawmakers to vote on a bill requiring DOJ to release its files.

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. 🤔
Look at this graph. The share of national income going to the richest 10 percent was lowest (and share to lower 90 percent highest) when union membership was at its highest. As unions have weakened, inequality has widened. This is why we must build back union power.
Make no mistake, everything that’s happening in the United States is being significantly enabled by the right wing oligarch capture of media. Every other country needs to do everything possible to keep that from happening where they are. Including protecting the CBC from Poilievre here in Canada.
I’ve thought about what the US would look like if signs like this commemorating SA and DV were posted where these harms had occurred. There would be no place without a sign.
If we will never be a Socialist [sic] or Communist [sic] Country [sic], then why are you giving billions of dollars to farmers to make up for losses from your stupid tariffs (SOCIALISM) and having the US government own part of Intel (COMMUNISM)?

Hope the 19 million Dems who didn't vote last Nov, & those who voted 4 the POS in the white House as they believed the bullshit, or couldn't vote for a woman, esp a woman of color, understand that this is on THEM! We are not getting the govt WE voted for! They are getting the gvt they deserve!

Who voted for war with Venezuela?
They're releasing the Epstein files?
Meanwhile, we just spent $280 million on Alligator Alcatraz, which is already being closed down because it violates the law, and we're sending $350 billion in tax breaks over the next 10 years to foreign investors. This is a truly evil and immoral agenda. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/28/w...
Release the Epstein files.
Why do you appreciate unions? I’ll start: Weekends off Paid vacations Work breaks Sick leave Paid holidays No child labor Safer working conditions Health care and retirement benefits

These spineless people won’t do damn thing.
Corporate America’s playbook: 1) Exploit workers to maximize profits 2) Use profits to buy Congress 3) Use Congress to pass union-busting laws 4) Use these laws to further exploit workers 5) Repeat Let's break the cycle and keep building back a powerful labor movement.
Thousands of farm animals & livestock are going unattended. They aren’t being milked. They aren’t being fed. I feel a great deal more for those animals than for the farmers who voted for this shit. They KNEW who their workers were & where they came from. But they voted to hurt them anyway.
Gotta hand it to the artist.

Question: Why did US put big tariffs on India despite major national interest in cultivating a strategic counterweight to China and trying to isolate Russia? Answer: Because the US president lied that he fixed India-Pakistan and India wouldn’t go along with the lie. (Seriously, that’s the answer)
There’s a word for that: corruption.
He may be alive, but he’s definitely not well.
So seriously, if the last confirmed outside party contact with him was a call with Tim Walz at 12:32 pm on Wednesday, where the fck is he? Even if he was on some sort of secret trip out of the US, we'd know it by now. That's a 24 hour blackout max.
Television legend Stephen Colbert has just signed a $13.5 million deal with Netflix for a 7-episode series.

The warfighters in DC got the trash picked up, now time to mulch.
NEW: Texas Governor Greg Abbott has signed into law a new, deeply gerrymandered congressional map that disenfranchises voters of color for political gain. All voters deserve to be heard. This is an affront to our democracy.
@nealkatyal.bsky.social: “You’ve got the president who's imposed the largest tax increase on American consumers since 1993 … and he did it without Congress saying one word. That is not our constitutional structure.”
Dear Americans, welcome to the thrilling game of ‘Did this dictator die or just disappear for a day?’ We’ve been playing it with Putin and Lukashenko for decades. Enjoy the suspense.

Turns out when you treat teachers well, invest in students, and focus on improving schools, you get real results. Illinois now ranks third in the nation for our education system for a reason.

So not only do churches NOT have to pay taxes, they're going to get YOUR tax dollars to boot. This seems like oh, I don't know, government establishing a religion in violation of the First Amendment?
The CDC is gutting a program that monitors foodborne illnesses. The program will now only track infections caused by two pathogens, rather than eight. Hello? How does this “Make America Healthy Again”?

The next days and months and years will demand from all of us great courage — and solidarity. Be prepared.

Huge news - appeals court rules that a majority of the President’s tariffs are illegal. The President is wreaking havoc on our economy, and he is breaking the law to do it. We must right this ship. We need sane trade policy again.

Yesterday, ICE agents detained firefighters who were actively fighting a wildfire. As a firefighter and paramedic, I know firsthand that in an emergency, every second counts, and politics should never come before saving lives.
“Give your kids an extra hug and kiss today.” Jesse Merkel spoke at a news conference outside Annunciation Catholic Church in Minneapolis, where his 8-year-old son, Fletcher, was one of two children fatally shot at a back-to-school Mass on Wednesday. Read more: nyti.ms/45HBSKN
Hey, mainstream media... Maybe more attention to stuff like this and less to Travis and Taylor's engagement?
Hold my coffee, where do I sign up?
What if we established a tax-exempt Church of Democracy and sued the government for infringing on our religious freedoms when it does authoritarian stuff?
A federal judge has ordered Florida to shut down "Alligator Alcatraz," after the state spent a staggering $218M to build the now-vacant detention camp. Closing it will run taxpayers another $20M. An utterly cruel and costly waste.
WHOOPSIE DOODLE
The Trump administration is now arresting firefighters – who are ACTIVELY fighting wildfires. And the Republican majorities in Congress are doing nothing to rein Trump in!

The sitting President of the United States raped children and he’s in no danger of being held accountable for it.
