Photos from St. Paul today captured by MPR photojournalist Kerem Yücel. He filed them even after being hospitalized after being injured by a less lethal munition.

Himes: "This shows Steve Witkoff almost literally sitting side with the Russians on this ... it's unimaginable to consider the fact that you would propose a peace deal that the Ukrainians didn't even know about."

Witkoff advised the Russians on how to pitch their Ukraine plan to Trump www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

Mamdani's line that billionaires spent more to oppose his candidacy than he proposed to tax them really says it all. Like a company that shuts down a profitable location as soon as it unionizes. The principle of maintaining control is more important.

800+ flights cancelled today because Elon took a chainsaw to the federal government and Trump won’t pay the remaining airport personnel. Elon’s on his way to becoming a trillionaire. Trump’s net worth has more than doubled inside a year. Glad everything worked out for them. How about you?

“He’s having a seizure and they’re trying to rip the baby out of her hands”

So sick of candidates pretending to be Christians and supporting and protecting pedophiles. Van Epps is a Trump stooge and by proof in this clip — an enabler of child abuse. TN-7 your special election is December 2nd

FACTS about SNAP: -35% to white people (largest share) -90% to people born in 🇺🇸 -86% to households with kids -70% work full time but aren’t paid a living wage (aka corporate welfare)

Influential news outlets like NYT/ WSJ continue trivialize coverage of the pro-democracy movement & demonstrations like #NoKings.

This is how our government has been corrupted: 1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office 2) Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor 3) Donors make huge profit 4) Repeat We must get big money out of politics. It is the root of our dysfunction.

There it is. Rep. Mike Collins (R-GA) says Republicans’ next goal is to kick seniors off Social Security: “Get off of Social Security. Get back into the workforce.”

Guy who is zip-tying American children and shooting pastors on the head with pepper balls wants Peace Prize.

CNN: “An older couple making $85K/year will see their yearly insurance premiums jump from $7K to $25,000 — 30% of their income.” 😳#TrumpShutdown #TrumpHealthCareTax This is what Dems are drawing attention to and want fixed. Now, not later.

So the people causing the shutdown are getting paid. The people keeping the country running don’t. And Speaker Mike Johnson won’t let the House come back to work. So basically they’re on a paid vacation while Americans miss paychecks. Did I get that right?

UNREAL there were no air traffic controllers at Burbank Airport amid the government shutdown. Republicans would rather protect child predators & deny you healthcare than staff our airports 🥴

I can’t believe I’m watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES I know we are “used to it” but it is absolutely insane

So…let me see if I have this right. The federal government is gonna shut down in 30hrs, and the party that controls the ENTIRE federal government is trying to blame the party that controls NONE of the federal government for the looming shutdown?

Whether they're blaming vaccines and Tylenol, or selling dubious "remedies," what they're really doing is promoting the perception that families (and especially mothers) can prevent and treat Autism. And thus also the perception that people with Autism and their families don't need social support.

i’m not going to be lectured about political violence by people whose politics is violence

The left isn’t “dancing on Charlie Kirk’s grave,” we’re just pointing out that, thanks to rhetoric like his, a lot of other graves exist.

i think anyone saying he practiced politics the right way or that we should continue his work should first have to read out loud his last days worth of posts to someone they love who doesnt know who he is

Sure seems that way. 😕 🇺🇸

Lots of people have to die because Trump has always been a soft, weak, pampered, fragile coward his entire life who now has to try and prove to people he’s a tough guy.

The longest standing pace vigil was torn down by Trump’s orders Sunday. The tent was started in 1981 by activist William Thomas to promote nuclear disarmament and an end to global conflicts. But Trump believed it was a sign of "wokeness". #ProudBlue www.politico.com/news/2025/09...

New York does not miss. The bleach did it for me. 😭

He'll likely try this, but I think the real danger comes after the 2026 midterms. Sure, they'll try to sway them with gerrymandering and "emergencies" that shut down polling places in key Democratic areas. But if Dems make real gains the current GOP majority can cry fraud and refuse to seat them.

$66 million. That’s what Meta, Twitter, CBS, and ABC have pumped into Trump’s presidential library while he’s in office. The press isn’t holding power to account. It’s bankrolling it.

It's hard to process the historic level of horror and heartbreak here. That the U.S. is complicit in accelerating this genocide is a mix of depressing, infuriating, and shameful.

Because Brendan Carr & the entire Trump regime know MAGA are f'n imbeciles & the American electorate is ignorant af they continue to tell the same lie. American broadcast companies do not have broadcast licenses. They don't exist. They own no bandwidths. It's BS that people keep falling for.

The America First geniuses managed to send hairdressers and soccer players into a gulag and *import* a triple murderer into the US. Nice work. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/24/w...

In 2016 this guy went to a law office with the goal of killing his wife’s lawyer. He hacked a woman to death with a machete and bludgeoned two other people to death (including a man he falsely thought was that lawyer), then set fire to the building to cover his tracks. Anyway, Trump just freed him.

To state the obvious… release the files…

CBO now says there will be 10m more uninsured from the “OBBB.” But the estimate of 4.2m uninsured from the enhanced ACA tax credits expiring at the end of the year stands. So we are looking at 14+ million more uninsured over 10 years unless that changes.

Even before their release, the Epstein files have exposed millions of Americans who have continued to move the goalpost for what they deem morally allowable when it comes to the vile, predatory, spray-tanned object of their cultic fervor. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/the-epstei...

The Epstein files have no reason to lie. A convicted sex trafficker hoping for a pardon does.

NEW: Over the years, Texas legislators have declined to pass at least three bills that would create siren or alert systems, a tool that Kerr County officials tried to secure for years before the July 4 flooding. By Lexi Churchill & @lomikriel.bsky.social, w/ @texastribune.org

Tim Burchett admits that House Republicans may agree to ask DOJ to reduce the sentence of sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell in exchange for her testimony, if they like what she has to say.

Today's private meeting between Trump's defense lawyer and one of his DOJ coverup organizers, Todd Blanche, and Ghislaine Maxwell, stinks to high heaven.
