Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.

This clap-back is 🔥 “You think my self-worth is determined by your opinion of me when in reality I know for a fact that I was better than you the day I was born.” "Your grandparents were born on third base, mine were born in the parking lot but still managed to score before you.” Holy shit!

The obscene face of Christian Nationalism: outlandish untaxed wealth in defiance of Jesus. Oh, and this time, slave laborers, too! Glory! Just remember, for any money you give to Heaven, there is always a 100% handling fee here on Earth.

If you drive a 2025/2026 Tesla or still use X, there really isn't an excuse. You really are just an asshole that looks the other way.

Trumpnomics: Get tariff money from US consumers on Chinese goods. Our farmers can’t sell their products because the Chinese refuse to pay our tariffs. China buys from farmers in Argentina instead. We send Argentina $20 billion. Then we pay our farmers to throw their crops away.

New York City, I can see a future with you. And it’s one we can afford. Our new ad just aired during The Golden Bachelor.

If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have Medicare for All, a Green New Deal, gun reform, universal child care, and a living wage. The right-wing agenda isn’t about “life.” It’s about control.

The US is going to bailout Argentina with your tariff money. Let that sink in

California and New York paying taxes to this federal government in 2025 is tantamount to England and France paying taxes to Germany in 1940. The money is going to be used *against* you.

Welcome to Heaven, Dr. Jane Goodall. You made the world a better place.

We must pay billions to farmers Because we cut off their customers with tariffs And pay billions to Argentina Whose farmers are selling to the customers we forfeited Because that is America First

This is very, very bad.

Folks — this is not a normal government shutdown. Let me explain the stakes and how we got here.

More guns than people… Is it freedom or a national death cult that keeps growing?

Republicans this week: "If I intentionally drive this vehicle off a cliff, it will be the fault of the people in the car that didn't have control of the steering wheel."

Mike Johnson cancels votes, locks doors to U.S. House as he has refuses bipartisan negotiations to keep the gov't open

THEY CLOSED PUBLIC POOLS RATHER THAN SWIM WITH BLACK PEOPLE YOU ARE DEALING WITH THE SAME GROUP OF PEOPLE AS THE FOLKS WHO DID THIS PLEASE WAKE THE FUCK UP

Why can’t we have nice things, too, instead of more spread of preventable diseases?

People of Illinois, we need your help. Get your cell phones out – record what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors. We need to let the world know this is happening – and that we won’t stand for it.

Pritzker: "People of Illinois, we need your help. Get our your cell phones, record and narrate what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors. We need to let the world know that this is happening and that we won't stand for it."

The Trump Administration's DHS officers appear to be carrying large weapons around downtown Chicago in camouflage and masks. This is not making anybody safer — it’s a show of intimidation, instilling fear in our communities and hurting our businesses.

From Ken Burns' “The 2025 Battle of Portland” 🎶Sweet Betsy From Pike🎶 “Dearest Prunella: As I write to you, a silent war rages in Portland. ANTIFA is the sneakiest foe of any war. Being invisible, they are difficult to find. Please pray for me as I enjoy my delicious coffee. Your Loving Husband”

Trump has been the worst president ever for farmers. Twice. But they voted for him three times. Now they want the rest of America to give them welfare. When they did it to themselves. But they don’t like socialism.

It shouldn’t be considered far left to believe in decency & democracy.

Odd, how we can’t afford to give Americans healthcare, but we can afford to drop $200,000,000,000 on Argentina with a moment’s notice.

🎃🎃

Every single American will be paying almost $59 each to bailout Argentina. Is that what you voted for? #MakeArgentinaGreatAgain

This is what politicization of the Justice Department results in.

Man alive. I have studied Right Wing authoritarianism for years and have watched some truly fucked up shit and today’s memorial service is maybe the most concentrated example of how messed up and disturbing that sector truly is.

If you’re able to attend the Yosemite Climbing Association’s Facelift event this week, we’ll donate $10 per person who comments that they’re attending. Facelift is the largest annual volunteer clean-up in any national park!

There goes the First Amendment.

A grim reminder: these people will never be satisfied. There’s no point at which they will say “we’ve won, let’s enjoy life.” They will always be looking for someone else to punish, to revile, to dehumanize. They’re empty without that.

Pritzker: What's at stake here is free speech. It's our constitution and our way of life. Do we really want the president intimidating people, organizations to get others fired? People ought to be standing up and speaking out.

Tim Walz: "I've been telling people since January it's going to get worse before it gets better, but it is going to come to an end. History is not going to be kind to these people. History is going to remember them for what they're trying to do. It's not what they're going to get done."

RESEARCH NOW: Open Enrollment for Medicare is Oct 15 - Dec 7 for 2026. I encourage those on Medicare (non MA), to research their supplemental/Medigap premiums. Also, please review your Part D RX plan as well. In 2026, you will enter catastrophic care for out of pocket RX at $2100. PLEASE REPOST! 🙏🙏

The bottom line is this. open.substack.com/pub/cmarmita...

Phil Williams sharing some data…

Next time someone on the right claims all the political violence in this country is coming from the left, not the right, do please show them this. You're welcome

🔥 MICHIGAN — Senate candidate Dr. @abdulelsayed.bsky.social : “Someone always gets paid… we have to become resistant to the games they play when they say the words ‘WASTE, FRAUD, AND ABUSE.” This part👇🏽

WATCH: “Americans, you’re getting shafted.” @drmichaelsays.bsky.social on the obscene medication costs in 🇺🇸 vs. the rest of the world. Our system is broken. #MedicareForAll

True Story. 👇

There are violent extremists on the left but they are not in charge of the party. You can find them on social media, not in the halls of power. The violent extremists on the right are in congress, on courts, and sitting in the Oval Office.

The Post and Matt Viser are suggesting that 22 yrs ago someone impersonated Donald Trump in response to a request from Ghislaine Maxwell to Trump and created a fake card to embarrass him 22 yrs later when he would be President. I'm not going to dignify this nonsense with anything but laughter

Swalwell: He’s telling you not to see your neighbor being chased through a Home Depot parking lot because he’s just trying to work hard and provide for his family. And he’s telling you not to see the drawing he made for Jeffrey Epstein.
