Scapegoat much? How 'bout Donald Trump, Eric, Ivanka, Don jr, Tiffany, Barron, Lara, and Jared next?

BENNET: Do you agree that 89% of children who died from flu were unvaccinated? RFK Jr: I don't know the exact number BENNET: That is the exact number, Secretary Kennedy RFK Jr: *death growls* BENNET: You took down the HHS communications promoting the flu vaccine. Do you regret that?

BREAKING: A GOP-appointed Virginia judge has struck down the Democratic-backed redistricting amendment in full, ruling it unconstitutional and “void from the start.” AG Jay Jones says he will immediately file an appeal.

🚨🚨BREAKING: In a huge victory for Democrats that will greatly increase their odds of winning back the House in November, Virginia voters have APPROVED the redistricting referendum.

Day 19 of #30DaysOfBiking I helped the kids clean out their bookshelves this weekend & today we rode around, dropping off about 75 books they don’t read anymore into Little Free Libraries across the neighborhood. 🚲 ❤️ 📖

Everything the Ellison family could own if Paramount buys Warner Bros: Paramount+ CBS CNN Showtime HBO Warner Bros TNT TBS MTV DC Studios Nickelodeon Comedy Central Cartoon Network And more... This is a rotten deal that the Trump regime has rubber stamped. State AGs must step in and block it.

We've had administrations where the Civil Rights Division took a less watchful eye to the rights of racial minorities or diverted its energies to address other issues, but this is the first administration in history to pervert it wholly into a tool to *hurt* the people its supposed to protect.

If you are asking why wait until now in regard to Eric Swalwell, you’re not part of the solution. You are part of the problem.

Gee, I wonder why the USPS needs to quickly hire postal inspectors. And call them police. Funny thing, the card was actually not in my mailbox.

Whether it’s pictures of Barack Obama reading to a group of children with Zohran Mamdani or it’s pictures of Donald Trump with Jeffrey Epstein on an island full of sex-trafficked minors, occupants of the oval office are making some controversial choices about who they take pictures with.

VAN HOLLEN: When you were in the House, you said Biden needed to make clear that 'Putin is an absolute war criminal.' Do you stand by that? WALTZ: Statements I made in Congress are very different than what I make now working for President Trump. I support President Trump is everything he is doing

Why do we have lawmakers in Congress who are willing to hold fellow members of Congress accountable for sexual assault but not a President?

you do not have to hand it to tucker carlson or marjorie taylor greene or alex jones or megyn kelly. they're all rats who see trump as a sinking ship and they're getting ready to jump in preparation for their next act. you do not have to fall for it.

Blanche does not need to meet Trump's illegal and unethical "expectations." That is not a "burden," it is a choice.

Los Angeles Bluesky, I need your help. I just learned that on Saturday at the protest at the downtown Metropolitan Detention Center, a friend’s 18-year-old son was shot in the eye with a pepper ball by DHS, permanently blinding him. He needs justice. If you were there and saw anything, please… 1/5

HOLY SHIT NEWS!!!!!!!!

Two brilliant civil rights lawyers - one Asian American; one Black American. Both women. @aclu.org’s Cecellia Wang & @legaldefensefund.bsky.social’s @janainelson.bsky.social. They argued two of the most consequential cases in SCOTUS this year. This embrace is one of my favorite moments of the day.

Every Democrat should refuse to vote to confirm any Trump appointee, on the grounds that Trump is an insurrectionist against the United States, and therefore is not a legitimate president, and therefore is incapable of appointing anyone to anything.

Thank you to the Supreme Court Sketch Artist and a special thank you to Justice Ketanji Brown for letting the Birther- In-Chief know what the 14th Amendment is Then Trump stormed out.. SCOTUS ..should be unanimous..we will see As TRUMP calls Justices "STUPID PEOPLE "

Yes! They’ve now closed their airspace to US military flights. Trump says we’ve won the war so it’s interesting that we need more military flights…

In horrible people news: Billionaire tech bros are fighting a proposed ballot measure that would require California residents worth more than $1 billion to pay a one-time 5% tax on their assets to help cover education, food assistance, and healthcare programs in the state.

If MAGA men can’t stand up to Trump on the shoes they choose to wear, what can they stand up to the president on? The answer is easy: nothing. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/who-...

All this because the Democratic Party let a convicted felon on the ballot, did not convict him in a timely manner for TREASON, and never said a fucking word between the election & transfer of power to indicate that they were just going to let a maniac unleash hell on everyone. Thanks a fucking lot.

Too many don’t know the geography. The black square is the Straight of Hormuz. Know that Iran is bombing all countries across the gulf, know Netanyahu is pounding Lebanon now as well as Iran. Trump is lying, the war is expanding to all these countries!

When a federal judge (finally) put ICE officers under oath, they admitted that they are given daily detention quotas and rely heavily on a Palantir-supplied AI tool to select targets, without warrants and without enough evidence to obtain one. They simply go into neighborhoods and round people up.

@ossoff.senate.gov is the ONLY Democratic U.S. Senator up for reelection in a state Trump won. He’s MAGA’s #1 target in the midterms. There’s no path back from the brink of authoritarianism without defending this seat. Go to electjon.com & support Jon!

I'm suing Grammarly over its paid AI feature that presented editing suggestions as if they came from me - and many other writers and journalists - without consent. State law requires consent before someone's name can be used for commercial purposes. www.wired.com/story/gramma...

BREAKING: HUGE NEWS! Democrat Shawn Harris forces a RUN-OFF election in the special election for Marjorie Taylor Greene’s DEEP RED Georgia House seat! Folks, this is MASSIVE. If retired US Army brigadier general Shawn Harris can flip this seat red, it’s f*cking OVER for Speaker Mike Johnson.

Sure, it seems worth breathing a sigh of relief that Kristi Noem is out at DHS — but here's something almost no one seems to mention: Markwayne Mullin is even *less* qualified than she is to lead the nation's third-largest Cabinet department. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/adios-kris...

In a scathing review, the top US medical journal's editorial board warned that the "destruction that Kennedy has wrought in 1 in office might take generations to repair."

The fascism is killing us, some faster than others, but nearly all of us either way.

I am SO PROUD to introduce the Albuquerque Indian School Act, which will transfer almost 10 acres of federal land to the Indian Pueblo Cultural Center and NM’s 19 Pueblos. This will support the IPCC’s work supporting indigenous communities and celebrate Pueblo culture, sovereignty, and resilience!
