HERE Jack Smith sets out Trump’s direct culpability and complicity in the federal election interference case, including January 6th:

It's Veteran's Day. I wonder if Donnie will go meet with some wounded service members at Walter Reed and talk to them about how no one has been treated as poorly as he has.

It would appear @shaheen.senate.gov finally realized her bullsh!t PR blitz wasn't working today. Hasn't posted in hours.

@konfrst.bsky.social Jennifer, a trans teenager at the Urbandale high school took his own life last week. It is believed to be due to bullying, including by his teacher. I've not seen anything in the news about this. Why isn't anyone talking about this?

Yesterday, the American people knew that this shut down was the Trump shutdown. Last night, 8 democrats in the Senate said "we'll take the fall for you" and made it the Democrat shutdown. Under @schumer.senate.gov "leadership", the Senate Dems once again failed us. @kaine.senate.gov We are pissed.

@schumer.senate.gov for the love of God and the democratic party, would you please step down? How much more damage will you allow your weak leadership to do? We need a fighter. You are not the leader for this fight. Put your ego aside.

To stop Republicans from redrawing congressional maps to steal five House seats, Texas Democrats have left the state — a last resort to block the maps. Any attempt by Governor Abbott to arrest these members or vacate their seats would be plainly illegal and authoritarian.

A little like when Trump wanted to just stop testing for Covid because there was too much Covid and so he wanted to just suppress the numbers.

NEW: The maker of Dawn dish soap, Charmin toilet paper, Crest toothpaste, and Tide detergent will raise prices in August because of Trump’s tariffs. Trump is making our lives more expensive — taking money directly out of your pocket.

Donald Trump promised to lower prices - but costs are going up for working people. He cut health care and gave his billionaire donors a tax cut. He’s not fighting for you.

Next up: sue this administration! A disabled vet says he was wrongfully detained in last week’s Camarillo raid, despite being a U.S. citizen. • Reporting for his security job at Glass House Farms • Told them he was a citizen • No charges. No phone call. No lawyer. • No care after chemical exposure

And to further destroy America, he wants to push out the Fed chair and install a crony who will do whatever he asks. Iowa's representatives will go along with it.

Iowa’s lawn-watering bans are the starkest sign yet of the state’s long-brewing struggle with high nitrate levels in streams and rivers that supply drinking water, Stateline reports.

🚨🚨🚨 IT GETS WORSE 😳 "Kristi Noem didn’t authorize FEMA’s deployment of Urban Search and Rescue teams until Monday, more than 72 hours after the flooding began, multiple sources told CNN." Story: www.cnn.com/2025/07/09/p...

McGovern: Listen to this quote from Murkowski who just caved and voted for this. "My hope is that the house is going to look at this and recognize we are not there yet."  If you really believe that, why the hell did you vote for the bill?

Man, I can wait for @schumer.senate.gov to get his strongly worded letter drafted so he can record it from his easy chair and tell us all how hard he is fighting for us.

I'm surprised @kcci.bsky.social is on here. Do they not know that trump and the maga crowd aren't regulars here?

Hey @iowademocrats.bsky.social - we are in unprecedented times. People are standing up every day. But where is Rita?

And it doesn't have to be about pizza, @robsandia.bsky.social - it can be about actual issues and where you stand on them. You could even use it to stand up for those who are being marginalized, if you feel safe enough to do so.

Iowa, we deserve better than having the worst economy in the country!

Here's something to think about. If Democrats take back the Senate in the 2026 midterms, @schumer.senate.gov refusing to step down means he'll be the majority leader. Is he the right leader we need against this administration? What a disappointing thought.

Linda McMahon wrote Harvard a letter to which they responded by noting areas that are in need of corrections and then posted it on social media. Great job Harvard!👏👏👏

DOGE is unpopular with Iowa independents. As they continue their assault on the services working class Americans depend on and on our information for Musk's personal gain, @joniernst.bsky.social (the chair of the DOGE caucus in the Senate) proudly boasts of the cuts. @sageforiowa.bsky.social

It's important to remember that this was trump's top pick. And when everyone questioned it and raised concerns, he doubled down. trump chose this. This is an example of his piss poor judgement.

Every single service member and veteran, if they’re being honest, will all tell you the exact same thing: We’d be immediately burned at the stake if we treated classified intel the way Pete Hegseth has treated it.

*Of course* advance information on US combat operations is classified. Pretending otherwise is an insult to our troops, who all know this. The Secretary is unfit to lead.

The racism of this administration knows no bounds.

I won’t share RFK Jr.’s lies about autism. It’s disgusting and dangerous. If he had a shred of decency, he would apologize and resign. Autistic people contribute every day to our nation’s greatness. To every kid with autism, I’m in this fight all the way for you.

Before the election, I warned that there is no safe haven under authoritarianism. If they can ship Kilmar Abrego Garcia to a foreign prison—accused of no crime, with no trial—they can do it to anyone. Americans of conscience must stand against this now.

What we need right now is a strong leader in the Democratic party to deal with what is going on. But instead, @schumer.senate.gov f*cked us, pissed off half the country and now refuses to do the right thing and step down. We will continue to lose and be weak thanks to him..

This asshole raised prices and ruined your retirement savings, and now he's out golfing for the rest of the weekend.

This is the 20th straight hour of Booker speaking. This is the energy and honesty we need in a Senate leader, not what we have been getting. bsky.app/profile/atru...

FIRE HEGSETH! Nepotism is against the law. Absolutely moral failure. www.defensenews.com/pentagon/202...

I think you mean "Homeland Security Secretary and Puppy Killer, Kristi Noem".

Great job, @fetterman.senate.gov.

This would be a good start for @schumer.senate.gov. After caving and not fighting, he insists he is the right person for the fight. But even after all that - all we hear from him is strongly worded letters. @democrats.senate.gov

Donald Trump’s VP, DNI, NSA, Chief of Staff, Deputy Chief of Staff, CIA Director and Secretary of State were all on a text thread about bombing Yemen, and he knows nothing about it? Who the fuck is running the country then, because clearly it is not him.

You're seeing record setting crowds across the country for Bernie and AOC, angry at what is happening. And the only time we've seen @schumer.senate.gov in the past week has been on TV to tell a reporter that he would absolutely change nothing. It's well past time for him to step down.

Honest question - I thought the CR was our one and only bargaining chip for the moment. Now that @schumer.senate.gov gave that away without getting anything in return, what are our options? Is it nothing more than just strongly worded letters until September? Are we just screwed until then?

In a world of Chuck Schumers, be a Jasmine Crockett!!!

What horseshit from DOD that they "mistakenly" deleted pages on the Navajo Code Talkers, black Medal of Honor recipients, Jackie Robinson, and more. They labeled them DEI and deleted them and then got caught and now they're scrambling. Nobody changes a URL by mistake. Constant lies.

Friendly reminder that the monster criticized by Chief Justice Roberts was created by Chief Justice Roberts.

When asked if the blowback has caused him to reconsider anything, @schumer.senate.gov on @chrislhayes.bsky.social defiantly says "no". This is the problem, @democrats.senate.gov. He will disappoint us again. The problem is his flip flopping. He has no strategy. Not a dime from me.

"We have lost our way not because of what we believe in but because of our party leadership’s reluctance to fight for what we believe in." charlotteclymer.substack.com/p/why-chuck-...

So many men will become vocal about “girl’s sports” when talking about trans kids, but they’ve never raised money for girl athletes or watched girl athletes perform or made sure girl athletes had uniforms or a safe coach or transportation. Makes me think it’s not really about girl’s sports…

Perhaps the @democrats.senate.gov can write them a strongly worded letter and tell them how very disappointed they are.

@democrats.senate.gov You are oddly quiet. Listen to your constituents. It's time for him to go. We need strong leadership in these times and he is most definitely not it.
