They say phones only make us miserable but I just got this news alert and laughed for a solid minute so who is to say

Washington State, Oregon, Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico, Utah and East Coast Blue States need to follow California's lead, right now!

Only 20-30% of the American people know that trump's big beautiful bill has cuts to medicaid, medicare, snap and other benefits. Our media and elected representatives are complete and utter failures!!! Pass it on...

Gretchen Whitmer has joined the chat.....

In other words: They lied.

And ANOTHER REPUBLICAN CHARGED

Washington State, Oregon, Nevada, Arizona, New Mexico, Utah and East Coast Blue States need to follow California's lead, right now!

@gavinnewsom.bsky.social: "Let's go. This is it. We need to wake up. We cannot survive if he rigs not just Texas, but he goes to Indiana, goes to Missouri, goes to Ohio, goes to Florida. We have to have other governors of like mind, and there are many, to now do something, not just say something."

Greystar was using rent-setting algorithms from software company RealPage, the subject of a 2022 ProPublica investigation that showed the firm was helping landlords decide prices in a way that legal experts said could result in cartel-like behavior. By @heathervogell.bsky.social

Help us cause some good trouble(virtually). Today, check in on Facebook at the Texas State Capitol to show support, even if you can’t be there in person. The more people who check in, the harder it is for to track who’s actually there. It’s simple and it sends a message: we’re watching, and we care.

BREAKING: Arnold Schwarzenegger: “Mr. President Trump, you stood there like a little wet noodle, like a fanboy.”

Weebles Wobble

Trump struggled to walk in a straight line as he went to greet Putin

International embarrassment.

One of Trump's many dipshits left behind sensitive documents about the Anchorage summit on a hotel copy machine -- including: names and numbers of U.S. and Russian state leaders, schedule and room locations. Yet another major national security breach. www.npr.org/2025/08/16/n...

Israeli government official arrested in Nevada in internet crimes against children sting

Imagine if they’d had sandwiches. 🥪

Thirty years ago parents did this to protect kids in areas threatened by violent gangs. Same thing today but the gang leader is Donald Trump.

WATCH THIS: ICE took 17-year-old Benjamin Marcelo Guerrero-Cruz off the street, left his dog to dodge cars, and laughed about the $2,500 bounty they just made. He’s now shivering in an overcrowded cell. At home? His mom is raising 3 little boys alone, including twin babies.

@gavinnewsom.bsky.social: "God damnit. Enough. Democrats, stop being weak. Step up. These guys have been dominant in the narrative. They have been defining the terms of the debate. It's time to get off our damn heels, onto our front toes... It's time for us to all band together."

An unarmed veteran was attacked from behind, sustaining injuries and being dragged into a Portland ice building.

Yes. Yes, you are.

Throwing a sandwich at a cop: felony. Beating a cop unconscious with a flag pole: tourist behavior.

Block this bag of trash.

Block this bag of trash.

Good morning and happy Friday to everyone. So far in Trump’s economy, the standard of living has improved only for Ghislaine Maxwell and the Jan. 6 insurrectionists.

My Medicare supplement premium is already slated to go up about $100 a month and now my part D prescription plan is slated to go up $50 a month. There is no way a COLA for my Social Security disability will cover that. Thanks President Trump & the GOP Congress.😡🤬 kffhealthnews.org/news/article...

Brett Meiselas: Trump sending the National Guard into LA wasn’t about immigration or riots. Into DC wasn’t about crime. Attacks on Harvard weren’t about anti-Semitism. This is all about capturing our government, culture, and society. An authoritarian power grab. Wake the f— up.
