It’s of note that during tonight’s hearing the DoJ didn’t even try to make the case that changing conditions on the ground in Portland warranted the CA National Guard. Instead they relied on legal technicalities. Proving again that what they say in court is different than lies they tell the public.

Yes, the Project 2025 agenda that was wildly unpopular in every opinion poll during the campaign is 100% the policy blueprint of the Trump admin, which was obvious then to people who paid attention and obvious now to everyone else.

Quick reminder: they can still release the Epstein files during a government shutdown.

This is not a fight about tax credits. This is a fight over your ability to go to a pharmacy and afford your insulin. We have the chance to protect the health care of millions of Americans. We need to take it.

Priztker: if federal agents fired upon journalists and protesters, when unprovoked, what would we call it?  I don't think we'd have any trouble calling it what it is. Authoritarianism.  So let's not pretend it's something else when it happens in our American cities.

Five years ago, @brandyzadrozny.bsky.social and I did a story about rural Oregon's fever dream that Antifa was coming to their town from Portland. Hundreds showed up armed downtown because they heard on Facebook that "Antifa buses" were coming. No buses came so they said Antifa "retreated."

The full 28-minute Jimmy Kimmel monologue. Please share.

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.

"we're going to keep showing up until they stop abducting our neighbors" brad lander is truly the best of us

This is the playbook, folks. If you're not paying attention now and doing something about it, then you're going to have to sit down the rest of your life because democracy is being taken away. Do not be quiet in this moment.

IMHO the guy who mocked a disabled reporter shouldn’t decide what’s funny for the rest of us.

I am just going to keep posting that the TX governor recently pardoned a political murderer. The dude texted "I'm going to shoot protestors", then went and shot a Black Lives Matter protester. He was convicted in a jury trial. Hard to find a more blatant example of celebrating political violence.

A Black man and a homeless man were found hanging from trees in Mississippi yesterday, for those who haven’t seen yet because it’s barely made it out of local news.

Truth bomb‼️ This man should be the one speaking on college campuses… “They’re planning for us to turn on each other and make this culture war a civil war. I am begging you, please, for the love of God, for the love of our neighbors… do not take the bait.” Watch

Question: When in the actual fuck, as a country, did we decide that our government gets to demand that we mourn someone in some particular way?

The real issue isn’t left vs right. It’s not white vs black. It’s not citizen vs immigrant. It’s not gay vs straight. The real issue is that a lot of powerful people have a vested interest — and a lot of money invested — in dividing us, and it’s working.

🚨 New Mexico announced beginning November 1st, the state will guarantee no-cost childcare to all residents, regardless of their income level in what the governor’s office described as a “groundbreaking new initiative”, a model for the nation. Bravo 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏 www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

For months I've been pushing the Trump administration to launch a criminal investigation into JP Morgan's ties to Epstein, but Bondi and Bessent are too busy running interference for pedophiles. I'm not letting up. Stay tuned.

Senator Ron Wyden was on 🔥🔥 and called out the committee for refusing to swear in RFK Jr as a witness, protecting the HHS secretary from perjury. Because he LIED from the moment his lips started moving.

Leadership!

Epstein Survivors Press Conference Sept 3rd, 10:30 a.m. ET Tune in to support them.

She was voted out of Oregon! Because we know better

If RFK jr would stand up at ANY medical conference and spouts his pseudoscience-cult BS, he would be laughed off stage. Where TF are these same physicians now? Every single doctor in the country must take a stand against this guy.

This was an amazing discussion about media, democracy, and community. Heather Cox Richardson Leigh McGowan (Politics Girl) Joanne Carducci (JoJoFromJerz) Dana Goldberg substack.com/@muellershew...

When barbarians are breaking down our gate, 'gentlemen' or 'ladies' must no longer be our chosen leaders.Yes – be gentle in context.Yes – be nice in context. And never abandon your empathy. But if you can't recognize the dire situation our country is in and bring your inner-warrior, GTFO of the way.

One of the most remarkable and impactful transformations of all human technology and civilization in history is happening right now!

America’s biggest crime problem is that we have roving bands of masked kidnappers who may or may not be federal agents.

WOW. @marcelias.bsky.social goes off on the failures of legacy media: "We have an absolute collapse and failure by the institutions that have promised us that democracy would not die in darkness, that in fact, they stand for the proposition that democracy will die in plain sight of daylight."

Life comes at you fast

Yess!!

Alex Padilla just made a point that I don’t think anyone else has made: Trump calling Abbott and asking him for 5 more Republican seats is no different than him calling the Georgia Secretary of State to ask for 11,000 more Republican votes.

Only 780 to go until we get to 10,000! Help us push for an investigation into Trump's Epstein scandal HERE: actionnetwork.org/letters/tell...

That's a lot of info! How many hours of interviews with victims and witnesses?! Epstein Epstein Epstein

Are they all criminals?!

🎯

Yes let's call it what it is- bullshit!

I can't figure out why I have so many new people following in the last 24 hours.

Say it loud for the people in the back.

Why is it acceptable for the president to use taxpayer money to fly overseas and cut a ribbon at his own golf course? Don’t normalize this abuse of office. It’s blatant corruption.

The housing shortage isn’t just about homelessness. It’s also the young person who can’t afford to move out. It’s the couple who can’t get a place big enough to have children. It’s the people stuck with roommates (or even in abusive relationships) because they can’t get a place of their own.

This reboot does seem to be happening.

New bombshell from my investigators on Epstein's sex trafficking operation: the Trump administration has an Epstein file detailing 4,725 wire transfers and almost $1.1 billion flowing through just one of his banks. Hundreds of millions more through others.
