WATCH: “There’s more gun violence in 🇺🇸 because there are more guns. I think it’s pretty simple.” Surrounded by Gen Z conservatives hopped up on Fox talking points, @timmiller.bsky.social of @thebulwark.com makes a powerful case for common sense gun laws. Full: www.instagram.com/reel/DRnBAXx...

WOLFERS: “When a politician says: we’ll deregulate health insurance and send you a “freedom account” check, ask: freedom to buy what? If insurers don’t offer real policies or can cherry-pick only healthy people, that money is a coupon for a store that’s not open.” #MedicareForAllNOW

I'll be on the radio, as per usual, at 3 pm today until 5 pm broadcasting on the mighty Downtown Radio. You can tune in at 99.1 FM or downtownradio.org. I'll be playing some songs by the recently departed Jimmy Cliff and Todd Snider. @ktdttucson.bsky.social youtu.be/QYtIT6J7G10?...

CHICAGO TEACHER: "This morning at 7:45, I marked a junior student absent—not because he was sick or overslept. ICE had snatched him up on his way to school. His main priority was getting his reading done for English class." (H/T @CTULocal1)

What is the least evil smart phone? I don’t want to give Apple my money anymore but didn’t they all bend the knee? I swear if a smart phone wasn’t required for corporate jobs I would rebook up my old flip phone I got from Creedo.

The death penalty grew out of this country’s brutal practice of lynching. When lynching became politically and socially unpalatable, the death penalty became the state sanctioned alternative. No one should be killed by the state. The time to end the racist, unjust, and cruel death penalty is NOW.

Oh my. James Talarico is incredibly skilled in dismantling Christian Nationalists. Get this man in the Senate.

When someone says, “Quiet, piggy,” the appropriate response is, “Shut up, child rapist.” #ettiquette

Future employers will just assume when they see ‘Trump admin staffer’ on a resume that the person is an unqualified dipshit who was temporarily elevated beyond their natural station in life.

Conservatives a year ago: "Release the Files!" Conservatives today: "Look, there's a big difference between raping a child and raping an older child. If anything, those girls are lucky that Trump took their virginity so they can't be sacrificed to Baphomet in the Comet Ping Pong basement!"

BREAKING: Department of Labor data shows that the Trump Organization has requested a record 184 foreign workers for 2025 across Mar-a-Lago, two golf clubs, and a Virginia winery. F--king hypocrite!

Cattle ranchers are down about $17 billion, thanks to Donald Trump.

A normal reaction to today's news, dear Nancy, would be to express shock and horror at the significant possibility that the president of the United States is a child molester.

Innocent people wouldn’t need to hold an emergency meeting to try to find a way to block the release of the Epstein Files

I'll be on the radio today with a special show. My guest will be Chris Cheely of SMART and we will be playing all train songs from 3 pm - 5 pm on Downtown Radio. You can catch it on 99.1 FM or downtownradio.org. @ktdttucson.bsky.social youtu.be/VkZhJJ8sPmw?...

Not many people are talking about the children being harmed by #ICELawlessness but it's important to talk about. What's happening to these kids is being paid for by our tax dollars. We're paying for the torture of children. I know this is beyond grim, but we must let people know about this!

It is time for Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to primary Chuck Schumer. America has had it with leadership who fails to meet the moment. We need you @aoc.bsky.social This hypothetical conversation must end.

Dem voters did amazing things. Dem party leadership pissed it away within a week.

How can we make THIS happen? Red states won’t comply👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼

“The worst view of current economic conditions since 1951… 61% blame Trump… 79% of independents have a negative view of Trump’s economic policies… if these numbers hold Republicans can wave adios to the house, and maybe the senate…”

Shame on @schumer.senate.gov.

I assume Schumer knows this is the end of his political career?

Whatever will Trump do? Ending the shutdown means bringing back the House for a vote on the Epstein files.

Weak idiot Dems caved in and now a lot of people will be going without healthcare. This country is a shithole.

Remember when some of us said the Democratic leadership would take all the wrong lessons from the blue tsunami and squander all the goodwill? Here you go.

JUST IN: Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi says she will not run for re-election, ending her historic tenure in Congress

HAPPENING NOW: Immigrant workers calling on Dodgers to refuse invitation to White House #iceoutofLA

Easily several hundred people have packed into this plaza in Chicago's North Center tonight in response to ICE abducting a daycare worker early this morning. This is a neighborhood that has largely been spared until now from the "Midway Blitz" terror campaign. But everyone knows someone affected.

I never watch Morning Joe and the one time I wake up to see what the news is and it’s f-ing Piers Morgan on. Why is he still a thing?

Bernie Sanders continues to look exactly the same.

Democrats won big. If it holds through 2028, it's going to be interesting to watch all the tech giants pretend they're not a bunch of MAGA fascists.

I want to know who the branding firm is who came up with MS NOW so I can never use them

SNAP benefits will be gone, small businesses will suffer, insurance premiums will double, air traffic will be delayed/halted: All of these things are happening because when the gov't shutdown ends, the Epstein Files get released.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene: “The worst thing that I just can't get over is we're not working right now. And I put that criticism directly on the Speaker of the House…It is an embarrassment to me that we're not in session.”

Make sure to wear your MAGA hats when you’re standing in line at the food pantry.

The fact a *single* Amazon full-time employee requires SNAP benefits should be a crime. The fact Amazon is the largest employer of SNAP recipients is a disgrace. Jeff Bezos shouldnt be that rich; he should be in jail.

Grijalva: I do think that Speaker Johnson misplayed his hand. There are people all over this nation who were out there with signs that said, “Swear her in.” They wouldn’t have even known about me otherwise. Thank you for highlighting how corrupt the system you’re protecting really is.
