Northern lights over my Montana home!! 😍 Check out the Big Dipper in the background.

The President wouldn't last five minutes as an air traffic controller, and after everything they've been through - and the way this administration has treated them from Day One - he has no business shitting on them now.

Nobody's Girl - good read. The writer did an excellent job of adding retrospective insight on how traffickers work and keep victims under their thumb.

We’re in the second Gilded Age just like the first — when America’s wealth was in the hands of a few, money corrupted politics, and working people were abused and exploited. It can be easy to feel discouraged, but the first Gilded Age teaches us lessons on how we can fight back.

This has real -- I intended to dm "Pam" -- energy.

Let's be clear: If North Carolina Republicans gerrymander their already illegal map further, they will be sued and they will lose. I never bluff and I usually win.

"Exhibit A" in Tylenol's upcoming lawsuit against our irresponsible nitwit president.

I’m just curious…. Has the full un-redacted Epstein reports been released yet? I know there’s been a couple of distractions, but we can’t lose sight of that. Those little girls, survivors turned thrivers, deserve our constant drumbeat. They don’t need to carry this alone any longer!

🚨BREAKING: Utah Supreme Court REJECTS Republican legislatures’ motion to continue using existing congressional map. Lawmakers must present a new, fair map by Sept. 25. www.democracydocket.com/cases/utah-c...

“A war framing confuses the issue. This is not a war,” former Pentagon lawyer Sarah Harrison explained. “U.S. forces went out and committed murder.”

Political violence and threats are not the answer. This is a watershed moment — we can choose to stay silent and live in fear, or we can choose to be loud for peace and compassion. We must work together to stop this crisis, and it should start from the top with the President.

Can confirm! I assigned chapters of this to students in my undergrad white supremacy culture course, it's so insightful and important. And the last chapter, "We keep us safe," helped my students think about ways to move forward given what we were talking about in class.

WTAF. The mental health system needs to change - there is no question about that - BUT just killing them? That is never the answer.

"…and Magda Goebbels made a great strudel.”

Yes. Yes, they are.

Elizabeth Warren on people who say Dems needs to tone down their rhetoric: "Oh, please. Why don't you start with the president of the United States? And every ugly meme he's posted and every ugly word."

And now, your moment of zen...

Any Senators here? I’m a biomedical scientist with immunology, cancer, infectious disease expertise. RFK Jr lied to you in his confirmation hearings. Repeatedly. Provably. He’s lied to EVERYONE for 30+ years. Repeatedly. Provably. He WILL lie today. Repeatedly. Provably. 1/

This is absolutely true. We would not have the internet without govt research and funding.

RFK JR: You’re just making stuff up Hassan: Sometimes when you make an accusation, it’s kind of a confession

WARNER: Do you accept the fact that 1 million Americans died from covid? RFK Jr: I don't know how many died W: You're the secretary of health and human services. You don't have any idea how many Americans died from covid? RFK Jr: I don't think anybody knows that W: How can you be that ignorant?

“This year we’ve had the biggest measles epidemic in 33 years. We had two children die of measles, which we haven’t seen since 2003.” Dr. Paul Offit warns: dismantling vaccine policy under Trump and RFK Jr. has deadly consequences.

Epstein Survivors Press Conference Sept 3rd, 10:30 a.m. ET Tune in to support them.

Kressly: I expect in the next couple of weeks, this is going to get worse. You’re going to hear from the same administrative people who have gutted the expertise needed to promote child health — pushing false narratives like, “we need to look at the link between vaccines and autism.” That is a lie.

Photo passed along from a federal employee from inside the Dept of Labor building, where a giant Orwellian image of Trump's face is now draped outside. Big Brother is watching.

Follow her. She's also on FB and Substack. Follow. Her. Anne has been a fount of knowledge and a calming guide through this hellscape. She clearly explains the lawsuits and legal turmoil in easy to understand language. Something we all definitely need to cut through the daily noise.

Crypto mining was bad enough at wasting energy. AI came along and said hold my beer. This is not sustainable. We do not need this.

Historian I know posted this on a social site. I think he’s right on this. We talk abt fascism as like a superlative, whatever is the worst. But there are many different bad things. And in many ways this is a better analogue.

Trump is weaponizing law enforcement against Black female political officials who won’t do his bidding. He’s accusing them of what he himself is guilty of: financial fraud. Textbook racist, sexual projection.

Florida's #1 Gay-Basher, Ron DeSantis, had the state pave over the memorial for Pulse Nightclub massacre victims so today ..... members of the community responded🌈💙❤️💛🩷💜🩵💚💛 ======================

“Do you really want government officials getting involved in cultural institutions, determining the content?” @GillianHTurner out here making actual sense on Fox News — better hope the whitewasher-in-chief wasn’t watching 😬

Ouch. Elise Stefanik didn’t just get booed once—she was booed off the stage twice in her own district. She’s blaming the “far left”, but that won’t save her. The truth is, Republicans at home aren’t happy with her either.

"WE are America. Not these idiot white supremacist authoritarians." Agreed. They need to be humbled and reminded they are free to be awful, but not free to impose their hate and control on everyone else. Rights for all, not a few.

Sigh.

For the record, our division commander BANNED things called “presence patrols” in Iraq. “If you don’t have a specific task & purpose, your ‘presence’ doesn’t do anything.” National Guard stating they are now doing presence patrols in DC. A complete waste of soldier’s time & effort.

This ad makes me want to move to Iowa just so I can vote for him!!

It is not HIS house. It is the People's House!! This is disgusting on so many levels.

I do not say this lightly. He is a gargantuan dumbf*ck.

One of the most important and powerful things any kid can do to make a better world is if they see someone being pushed around, stand up for them. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

You are not being told to storm a beach facing oncoming bullets! You are being asked to stay engaged! FFS, 🤦🏼‍♀️, there’s no draft, no bombs! Just stay engaged, informed, and VOTE!

For the record - this is how they do everything. They started saying in JANUARY that it's patriotic to pay more, if the prices are high because of the 💩🤡's policies. Of you listen, they do it every time.

Ditto Mark.

it's so cool that everyone has just completely forgotten that the President doesn't have any legal authority to set US tariff rates we're like six months into an illegal tax regime being set by imperial decree and everyone's treating it like a totally legitimate thing

Deported under a little-known wartime law, more than 130 Venezuelans were sent from the U.S. to a maximum-security prison in El Salvador. Now released, several tell NPR they endured beatings, sexual abuse, and near-total isolation.

No further words needed!

"Are you trying to rewrite history to distract from the Epstein matter, senator?" Atta girl!

Trump: "You have a certain place in the Massachusetts area that over the last 20 years had 1 or 2 whales wash ashore. And over the last short period of time they had 18. Ok? Because it's driving them loco. No, windmills will not happen in the United States."
