#SadNews Graham Greene, one of my favorite actors, has died. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/02/m...

The truth is from my perspective as a former first responder to disasters and terroristic events, that Trump just lacks the capacity to care about other humans or he just lacked the understanding to grasp the importance of emergency management and Public Health protocols.

#NoKings Peaceful protest to the government to redress our grievances as we have a right to do as set forth in the Constitution.

When the crops rot in the fields unpicked and there's another "needlessly induced Trump supply chain shortage," people will go hungry, and possibly have even more dire outcomes.

"We will lose this democracy if we do not use our voices," @terrymoranabc.bsky.social says in one of his first posts on Substack, on the day his contract with ABC News ends terrymoran.substack.com/p/senator-mu...

If the situations were reversed and Bruce had posted a fake AI golf ball attack upon the infantile president, he was sic his weaponized FBI/DOJ into arrest and prosecution mode like the baby he is.

The nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office has confirmed what we already know — the Republican budget will hurt working families while it helps the rich get even richer. We need a budget that works for ALL Americans, not just Trump's billionaire donors.

The Congressional Republicans' Big Budget of BS is morally failing Women, Children, and Families. Cuts to Medicaid, SNAP, and Planned Parenthood for billionaires' tax cuts punish hardworking Americans. Fight Back! Petition Congress against these cuts now. Links are in the reply.

Remember when Republicans said Trump’s Tax Scam wouldn’t touch Medicare? They were lying.

Down the Up Staircase.

A must.

This is very bad news.

U.S. Judge Beryl Howell has struck down Trump’s executive order targeting the law firm Perkins Coie, calling it an “unprecedented attack” on the judiciary—and citing Trump's own speech boasting about coercing law firms to join him.

And people wondered why so many conversant with the position thought she wasn't up to it, or would be a danger to the country. In a situation like that, giving people the benefit of the doubt is putting 350 million at risk. And now we see. Can it be fixed? Will it?

Indeed. Some believe that the RW court ruled 9 to 0 against the president and his misuse of a War Powers Act to save their own seats. Is it too little, too late? We hope not. Let's hope #SCOTUS reels Trump in.

We live in a wonderful country that has a thing called the Constitution and it promises due process. It promises that we won't be subjected to cruel and unusual punishment. The GOP has misused a War Act to mistreat these humans in an abominable way. #WarCrimes

The height question: If you see T with people who haven't felt the need to exaggerate their height, it's clear he's not 6'3", but that's not the real question. The concern is why he feels he has to lie about it.

It's Tax Day, so here's a quick reminder: While most of us are busy filing our taxes, Trump and Elon Musk are firing IRS workers & making it harder for Oregonians to get the help they need—all to give $7 trillion in tax breaks to the rich.

We are now at the point where the AP can write this as if its a simple background fact and it sparks no outrage: "Trump has made no secret of his plans to use the power of the federal government to target domestic political adversaries."

Look at "Grabby Appleton" get all handsy with the all-female space team, that look like they just wandered off the Mar-A-Lago-esque plastic surgery runway. There are no words.

"the president defied a Supreme Court ruling to return a man mistakenly sent to a gulag... and spoke of sending Americans to foreign concentration camps. This is the beginning of an American policy of state terror, and it has to be identified as such to be stopped" snyder.substack.com/p/state-terror

China just halted orders of all Boeing planes. This is a major strategic failure for Trump.

Not a drag queen, trans, immigrant or Democrat. Just a straight cis Republican maga predatory man. Trump’s cult. #Voices4Victory

Every one must resign or be fired or our entire military is at risk, as is our relationship with allies. By the way the person really threatening the ladder should resign too. As should his VP. And Johnson for being a...

Anybody who's ever counseled somebody with substance abuse problems realizes that it's a hell of a risk to put someone in that position. The stress would have been too much for him without that problem. He's just not that smart.

When your former colleague Brit Hume calls Hegseth out for lying that it didn't happen once it had already been admitted to? You're toast, man. That's triple exposure. You exposed us, yourself, and your lies.

Truly. Do they even think about their excuses before they say them? Because it just gets them in more trouble.

I do not think in the year 2025 that we should continue to accept a reality which sees women paid just $0.75 for every $1 men are paid for doing the same job. If we want to achieve economic justice in this country — that means equal pay for equal work.

Actually @markwarner.bsky.social they’d be arrested.

Certainly We should strive for efficiency, but the difference between good governance and business is that it's not about profit in governance. It's about caring for the people.

The top 0.1% of Americans control $22 trillion in wealth. The bottom 50% control $3.8 trillion in wealth. Read that back. Folks, this is what oligarchy looks like.

DOGE recommended firing workers at: -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. "Conflict of interest" is a severe understatement.

The great news is that Aaron Rogers has been cut by the Jets. The terrible news is that he will now be free to practice medicine in the Trump Administration.

Marbury v Madison is a seminal case from 1803 that holds that the federal courts must determine the constitutionality of the actions of the other two branches of government. Hope that helps, Stephen.

Trump has pulled security clearances from everyone from Milley to Obama. It might just be pure pettiness or it might be because they want to blind us.

Someone coined the term Muskolini and I can't believe I didn't think of it first. Darn it.

Unfathomable how anti female they are. And it gets worse:

Congress is meant to be a check on Presidential abuse of power—it’s the way our democratic system of checks & balances works. It’s time for Republicans to say “enough” and stand with the people they represent and against the corruption & lawlessness we’ve seen from Trump & Elon.

At least $12 *trillion* from global oligarchs is hidden offshore in secret tax havens worldwide. And it is headquartered right here in the USA. Instead of cutting lifesaving programs like the VA, Medicaid, and food stamps, we should be cracking down on tax havens for the ultra-rich.
