Portland:

A historian’s alarm: when these twelve familiar steps appear in a nation, the result is often irreversible—unless citizens rise up and demand otherwise… hartmannreport.com/p/twelve-ste...

The GOP health care for immigrants lie is an old one. Here’s me six years ago:

📌 The entire world 🌎 is laughing at America now 🐥

Sanders: I'm not a big supporter of the Affordable Care Act; I stand for Medicare for All. I believe healthcare is a fundamental right. However, I refuse to watch people in Vermont and across this nation face their premiums doubling.

Parishioners Pray and Pastors Prey.

Repubs won’t even acknowledge that Dems are trying to keep health insurance premiums from skyrocketing for 20+ million Americans? They are just going pretend that isn’t happening & keep repeating this “free healthcare for illegals” bs? What do the 20+ million think about that?

Noem & Rubio “deliberately & with purposeful afterthought” sought “intentionally to chill the rights of freedom of speech & peacefully to assemble.”The judge’s view tells us with utter clarity their level of hostility to our beloved country & the Constitution. www.americaamerica.news/p/a-judges-a...

Fox News reporter to Mike Johnson: "How can you say 'they take no pleasure in this,' and then the next minute say, 'Oh, they're just having fun and trolling?'"

Talarico: In the New Testament, Jesus spends most of his time healing the ill rather than preaching or praying. Currently, some Congress members, who claim to follow Christ, are removing healthcare from those in need.

Casey Desantis’s charity that got $10 million redirected from a Medicaid fraud settlement the state entered into directly into its bank account rather than the FL treasury.

I can’t think of any reason to completely wreck the ag markets in entire United States other than purposeful sabotage. A fire sale on farmland.

“You kill people and break things for a living. You are not politically correct,” boasted the ambitious sociopath.

"It's absurd to think that … the government of the United States that [the people] pay for, that they vote for, is really in service of one man. ... He is using every arm of the government to create pleasure for himself … and also to seek vengeance upon his enemies."

This is the obnoxious (and false) way Trump talks about Portland: “I don’t know how anybody lives there. It’s amazing. It’s anarchy out there.” We see the pattern over and over: Invent a crisis, fake a solution, then claim victory to stroke his fragile ego. www.americaamerica.news/p/fabricatin...

Republicans would rather bring the entire government to a halt than risk bringing a pedophile to justice.

Republicans would rather shut down the government than help millions of Americans afford health care. This article tells some of their stories, and is a good reminder of what’s at stake.

The Governor Newsom Press Account is beyond good.

Minutes after the bill was signed, my firm sued on behalf of affected voters. I told you I don 't bluff. Next up is to show that we win.

I'm not surprised by the lengths they are willing to go to stop us from seeing the Epstein Files. Just look at how far they were willing to go to stop us from ever hearing from Jeffrey Epstein again.

Can't we just get healthcare

Firing Fed Chair Powell is the shoe I hope won't fall, but SCOTUS will rubber stamp it. Congress will continue to scroll on their phones while the orange toddler plays in traffic, causing pile ups & carnage. We're moving into a dangerous no man's land. Without the other branches, only wreckage comes

How appropriate that this reminds me of a scene from a movie called “Clueless.”

If a government tells you that you can’t call it authoritarian, it’s authoritarian.

🚨BREAKING: The U.S. Department of Justice Thursday sued six states — California, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, New Hampshire, and Pennsylvania — over their refusal to hand over sensitive voter registration data. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

We aren't on a slippery slope to a constitutional crisis. We are IN the crisis. Time for leaders - political leaders, business leaders, civic leaders - to pick a side: democracy or autocracy?

Starbucks is closing stores and cutting 900 jobs in a restructuring move. 1,100 jobs were slashed earlier this year. Reminder that Starbucks’ CEO made 6,666x more than the company's median employee in 2024. This was the widest CEO-to-Worker pay gap in the entire S&P 500.

As soon as the governor signs this illegal bill, Missouri will be sued. I don't bluff and I usually win.

The richest man on earth owns X. The second richest man on earth is about to be a major owner of TikTok. The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post. See the problem here?

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

#HappyPublicLandsDay! Today, I celebrate the San Gabriel Mountains National Monument, where millions of Angelenos can hike, explore, and connect with nature close to home. I’ll keep fighting to protect our public lands so everyone can enjoy their beauty for generations to come!

Attempting to rig elections on his behalf. Turning the military on citizens. Toying with the idea of declaring martial law. Attacking political enemies and punishing those who speak out against his regime. If this were happening in another country, what would you call it?

You people trying to rewrite the history of who Charlie Kirk was are pathetic. He used his organization to bully, dox and attack people he didn't agree with. Free speech my ass. He was one of the worst aspects of American politics. www.theguardian.com/education/20...

STEWART: “Comedy doesn’t change the world, but it’s a bellwether— we’re the banana peel in the coal mine… authoritarians are the threat to comedy, music, art, thought… progress.” Nailed it.

"To announce that there must be no criticism of the President, or that we are to stand by the President, right or wrong, is not only unpatriotic and servile, but is morally treasonable to the American public." - Theodore Roosevelt

The past teaches us one truth: when laughter dies, liberty soon follows... hartmannreport.com/p/the-oldest...

We are fast becoming a banana republic, with two standards of justice. If you oppose the leader, you go to jail just for speech. If you're a loyalist, you get immunity for your crimes. That's what happens in Iran - not the United States. This is a decision moment for America.

Remember: If we allow ourselves to fall into fatalism, or wallow in disappointment, or become resigned to what is rather than what should be, we will lose the long game. The greatest enemy of positive social change is cynicism about what can be changed.

Not just Unpopular! He's also the Most Unworthy-Unqualified-Unethical-Uneducated-Unprepared-Undemocratic-Unfortunate-Unhinged-Unjust-Unread-Unappealing-Unconscionable-Untrustworthy-Unscrupulous-Unstable-Unbearable-Unlikable-Unreliable-Unsound & Unctuous President in Modern American History. 🇺🇸 🙄

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.

Though it’s investigated her for several months, the Eastern District of Virginia has so far been unable to find clear evidence that James knowingly committed mortgage fraud. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
