Mueller, the former FBI director and special counsel, had been subpoenaed by the House Oversight Committee as part of an investigation into Jeffrey Epstein.
Resistance is NOT futile.
The ethos behind Kennedy’s Make America Healthy Again movement blames individual people for their chronic diseases and links Medicaid users’ value to their economic productivity.
Honestly, the hour-long run and march of people shouting “Free DC” up 14th Street today is the energy I needed this morning. I love you, DC.
We are already suing Ohio.
Trump and his greedhead cronies may get a big surprise in spite of their efforts to rig the 2026 election. They could find themselves swamped by a blue wave. Americans are wising up to the fact that Trump is turning the American dream into a nightmare.
Netflix just gave Gavin Newsom 2 million for the redistricting fight and made a deal with Sesame Street. New episodes will air there and the backlog of old episodes will Be free to watch. Netflix picked a side. I will keep my subscription.
It wasn’t until 1938—more than a half century after the Haymarket Riot and the national strikes for eight-hour workdays—when Congress passed the Fair Labor Standards Act, which limited the workweek to 44 hours, and then amended the law two years later to 40 hours.

We do not fully grasp how damaging the SCOTUS’ presidential immunity decision was. What we know is it was a disaster and the huge damage it has caused is being compounded daily. That is because the result is a collaboration between corrupt justices, a supine Congress and a demented President.
If they enact a new illegal congressional map, Missouri will be sued.
All of them.
To be clear: Trump’s tariffs + Trump’s trillions transfer amount to the biggest tax INCREASE on regular folks ever… yet @MarshaBlackburn calls it “the biggest tax CUT ever” — because for rich people it is, and they are all she cares about. She hopes we don’t understand this.

No candidate interviewing for medical school who, upon expressing RFK jr's views, would ever be accepted. They'd be laughed right out of the room. And yet this man runs the HHS – including the CDC, NIH, ACF, CMS, HRSA, and SAMHSA? WTAF?! Remove RFK jr for dereliction of duty. Immediately.
This is not what America is. It’s not. And we must make this very clear when we vote in 2026.👇

As with so many things related to the Trump administration, a great deal can be gleaned from what they don’t want to discuss.
Trump's plan to send troops to Chicago is a politically motivated move that could intimidate voters.
Trump loves to use “sanist” language, words used to stigmatize mental health conditions in a derogatory way, to insult his enemies, and justify his actions. While these words can be part of casual vernacular, Trump’s constant use of dismissive and stigmatizing rhetoric matches his actions.
SHARPTON: “I don’t endorse candidates, but I do take attendance.” 👀 Rev Al noted Cuomo & Adams were absent from the “March on Wall St” to protest Trump’s assault on DEI and attempts to control Democratic-led cities led by Black mayors… But @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social was there.
The Constitution provides Congress the power to override a Presidential veto. They aren’t co equal on law passing. Congress is the superlative body.

Two psychologists have warned that Trump shows signs of dementia—specifically frontotemporal dementia, linked to deteriorating psychomotor functioning. The blurry photos released today do nothing to dispel the growing speculation that something is seriously wrong with Trump.

I have never seen a time like this. There is zero regard for truth and facts from the Far Right. Obvious lies are dispensed daily via loyal media to loyal followers who absorb falsehoods as gospel. They say what their worshippers want them to say, truth is irrelevant, fact-checkers are irrelevant.
To read the 337-page transcript of Ghislaine Maxwell’s interview with the Deputy Attorney General, Todd Blanche, is to be horrified, even enraged, by Maxwell’s brazen airbrushing of her conduct, and by Blanche’s placid acceptance of her rendition of events.
I grew up during a time when the press would have demanded that the White House release the President's medical records and ask why no one has seen him for four days.
Jesse Watters: “You weren’t ever on Jeffrey Epstein’s jet, were you?” RFK Jr: “I was on Jeffrey Epstein’s jet two times.” Release the freaking Epstein Files. Believe the survivors and their families. We want accountability.

O'Keefe to Noem: "At least 20 people who signed this letter were current FEMA employees & they've been placed on administrative leave. Is it now the policy of DHS that anytime an employee puts their name on something criticizing you or POTUS, they should anticipate being put on leave or fired?"

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."
J.B. Pritzker is 100% right. Please listen to him, pay attention, and join us in speaking out against authoritarianism and to protect free and fair elections.
ABC News is still calling RFK Jr. a “vaccine skeptic.” The dude was one of the most prominent anti-vaccine activists for decades. There’s video of him in 2023 saying that there’s no vaccine which is safe and effective. You can call him an anti-vaccine activist!
"The straw man being put forward is that it's either we have the military or we're going to get our throats cut at night in DC. Is there no middle ground? Do local law enforcement account for nothing? We've got the National Guard GARDENING right now in DC. Is that an efficient use of our resources?"
They're both lying to you.
“I look forward to watching the videos of soldiers entering Chicago.” Our Founders would be sickened by today’s Republican Party. Anyone who believes in freedom and supports the Constitution should be sickened by today’s Republican Party.👇

Public safety in California is on the rise. Last year, California had the second-lowest homicide rate since at least 1966, decreasing by nearly 12% overall since 2023. We're going to drive that progress forward up and down the state.

New Mexico has issued a public health order that removes federal restrictions to COVID-19 vaccine access so that pharmacies in New Mexico can vaccinate people of all ages and risk profiles. Every state need to do this!
This was one of my father’s favorite sayings. A friend forwarded it and I felt the need to pass it along.
That Trump and Trumpism are fascist doesn’t explain the sheer vandalism of unleashing mass murdering mayhem via RFK to replace medical/scientific institutions of immense value and prestige with medieval peasant superstitions. That is a criminal madness facilitated by but above and beyond fascism.
There's only one way to stop the rumors about Donald Trump's health: a press conference. Why won't he talk to the press, and why isn't the media doggedly demanding it?
