Since the Democrats worked extra hard to hide who actually supported this, I think the No Kings/Resistance position should be to primary every Democrat unless they publicly call for Schumer's ouster this week Either they go into total rebellion mode, which they won't, or the people will

This needs to be seen by everyone.

Trump to Republican senators: "I thought we'd have a discussion after the press leaves about what last night represented and what we should do about it and also about the shutdown and how that relates to last night. If you read the pollsters, the shutdown was a big factor, negative for Republicans."

Attorney General Pam Bondi says she has retroactively appointed former Trump attorney Lindsey Halligan as a "special attorney" for DOJ and has "ratified" all of her actions to date, including her presentations to the grand juries that indicted Trump's foes.

Add a dose of propaganda to your morning coffee.. This smells of Russian-like “special operation”

Calling it the Epstein Ballroom is disrespectful to the office of the presidency. I can’t believe people would even dream of calling it the Epstein Ballroom.

take a moment to really think about how hard Democratic leaders have had to work to somehow be losing to Trump on the issue of corruption

“I am counting on millions of Americans proving on Oct. 18—and beyond—that they will not let down all those who have sacrificed to sustain our system of self-governance and the ideals for which our republic stands.” www.americaamerica.news/p/what-we-sh...

Don't blame us for yanking their life-sustaining aid away! Blame other countries for not countering our evil.

Jimmy Kimmel should have stuck to acceptable comments, like suggesting that homeless people be executed

Either the Dems get rid of this entire leadership or they're done as a party (and we may be done as a country)

Use of the word "evil" in official congressional e-newsletters, over time, by party

Thanks, Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas, who made up a new Second Amendment in 2008. That new Scalia Second Amendment created a fake individual right to own a gun. If we want to fix the US gun culture we must reform the court and overturn the Scalia Second Amendment.

I wrote this story because the case of the Guatemalan children hasn’t received nearly as much media attention as it deserves. I wanted to highlight the full extent of the government’s depraved conduct. I hope you’ll read and share. Don’t look away. www.lawfaremedia.org/article/the-...

Yes, literally: It's time for generational change. The leaders that got us into this mess won't be the ones to get us out of it -- all of them have to either step back or get primaried & have to defend why they're the best person to lead us forward. www.axios.com/2025/09/05/h...

"It is past time for both Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer to step down and step aside. This fascist moment, this age of Trump, demands outspoken, unrelenting and fearless opposition... we all deserve better." I make the case, in my latest for The Guardian, for new leadership:

The neoliberal project inside the Dem Party cannot be reasoned with, negotiated with, or bargained with. There's too much money at stake & there will always be grifter-warriors for its side. It will have to be politically defeated by populists, because it will never voluntarily relinquish power.

My general view is that unlike in a lot of other lines of work, most folks working in politics & media believe in nothing beyond accumulating more status, wealth & power - and this hyper avarice explains everything happening right now. I don't think my view is overly cynical. I think it's reality.

Say more of this, yes. MAGA Republican values are bad values. Liberal values are better. We — the left-liberal pluralistic democracy coalition — are better people than the Christofascists.

An amazing document.

If you work in/adjacent to Democratic politics, or even if you are an occasional Democratic donor, this new @adambonica.bsky.social piece is the most important thing you can read today. The Democratic Party cannot build power if it allows scam pacs to thrive open.substack.com/pub/data4dem...

Trump fires the Commissioner of Labor Statistics after jobs numbers fall short of expectations:

This is what MAGA voted for.

Who will she implicate for a pardon? Any bets? Must be some nervous pedophiles out there.

A Big Beautiful Pardon is in the works.

The unitary executive can set the curriculum at Harvard, order the owners to change the names of professional sports teams, throw his enemies in prison, close a Cabinet-level Department, but he is powerless to ask the sycophants he put in place in the FBI and DOJ to release the Epstein files.

Donald Trump, who is actively covering up a pedophile ring that implicates himself and his friends, is helping the Catholic Church cover up their child sex abuse too. They say “protect kids,” but what they actually mean is “protect pedophiles.”

Essential 🧵 from @andreapitzer.bsky.social on the concentration camp in Florida's Everglades.

Now all the committee Democrats have left, denying Republicans a quorum. Republicans don't care. They're continuing to vote nominees through without a quorum to transact business.

Great interview. A Must Listen.

"Reich citizenship will not be laid in the cradle of every one born in Germany, but will be ceremoniously conferred on him after he has shown himself worthy of it through special accomplishments, through loyal services to the State." NY Times, July 6, 1933.

This episode of the Amicus podcast is one of the clearest explanations of SCOTUS corruption I've ever heard. Kudos to @dahlialithwick.bsky.social and @whitehouse.senate.gov who for some reason don't seem to have yet skeeted about it. Come on! Repost! Get the word out! www.youtube.com/watch?v=A1v2...

Amazing 🧵

Essential 🧵

Musk’s new party will be able to run on his accomplishments in politics: - Murdered 14 million people around the world - Secured billions in contracts for his companies - Spent billions to elect a guy he accused of being a pedophile as the president - Stole everyone’s data 👍👍👍

I'd also reserve a place in infamy for Russell Vought.

Almost right. Partially to cut taxes for billionaires. The other major purpose is to fund the apparatus of a giant police state. That will be more important to our freedoms.

This 🧵 is 💯

Ending USAID is one of the most tragic, horrific events to happen during this administration — and that’s saying a lot. Please continue to speak up & push back. #Resist #StandUp #USAID #WeThePeople #HsndsOff #StopDOGE @5calls.org

Really impossible to overstate how completely this guy has failed at every aspect of being an opposition leader over the past six months. Jeffries is a truly inspiring example for every soulless careerist who would rather be king of nothing than stand for anything decent in the world.

You’ve seen this movie before: Maybe Reagan guessed, Bush hoped, and Trump tried—but tax cuts never paid for themselves. Given the mountain of evidence, claiming once again that "tax cuts will pay for themselves" is no longer ideologically motivated optimism. It's a lie.

They’re not going to stop and this is why loud, public collective action by university presidents is necessary and long overdue. bsky.app/profile/mcop...

And this chart suddenly feels particularly relevant.
