FACTS CHECK: Republican Lie: “Democrats are shutting down the government to provide health care to illegal immigrants.” Facts: Undocumented immigrants are not eligible to enroll in Medicare and Medicaid, and they are also not eligible to purchase coverage on the ACA Marketplace.

It’s possible that the MAGA man who heinously murdered Mormon churchgoers did it as revolt against Trump “avoiding accountability’”(quote from mother of murderer’s social media post) for being a child sex molester and sex trafficker? (aka, EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN) open.substack.com/pub/meidasto...

Watching the cable news commentary on the bullet engravings is wild because none of these people seem to realize that the content of the engravings are indicative of extremely online meme brain rot

As if things weren’t bad enough in the upside down, I just heard on NPR that dark chocolate has just gone up by 42% and milk chocolate 50%.

A murderous dictator has kompromat on the US President and is making him do his bidding. The Cold War never ended for Vladimir Putin. What is happening to America right now is his greatest triumph.

Trump barred using a practice called disparate impact that uses statistical analysis to prove racial discrimination. But his administration is effectively using the same approach to accuse Harvard of reverse discrimination. www.bostonglobe.com/2025/08/18/m...

Cutest local wildlife ever!

Yep. That’s what I’d do too. www.facebook.com/share/r/16bf...

Colbert is actually well positioned and practiced to lead building something better

So flagrantly disgusting are the type of people who dwell in lies and grift. So grateful everyday that they’re crumbling and losing favor with their base; that based in inauthenticity, tRump’s regime will be toppled by us strongly making GOOD TROUBLE! Happy Good Trouble day, y’all!

Last week, I launched a new publication called The Dissident. It's an anti-fascist publication focused on the intersection of tech, privacy, and LGBTQ rights in the current authoritarian moment. Check it out! www.thedissident.news

And to think if people had voted for her, we wouldn’t have gone back….

Good Trouble Day is shaping up nicely, y’all !

Been absent from Bluesky quite a minute, but thought I’d pop in to say that this is funny. The YFASNYFO (pronounced “ya fas nee fo”) is getting deep out there. Let’s all keep fighting, keep resisting, and stay safe & peaceful.

Talk about telling it like it is…. substack.com/@artistlike/...

@oakborn.bsky.social Hi there! How come you don’t mention nurse in your blue sky bio?

Tim Miller on JD Vance: “This is a deeply, deeply unserious, petty, smarmy person…” I couldn’t agree more. His head is so far up Peter Theil’s ass, he’s also deeply, deeply a traitor to the U.S.

What we learned yesterday. The Times They Are a-Changin'

So great!

…and the funny of the day.

On my evening stroll. The schoolyard…On a hope and a Dream.

This both broke open and steeled my heart.

@msnbc.com It’s too bad you have to be live televising Trump lying through his teeth. Wish you could just cut out & say you’re on to do more relevant reporting elsewhere!!!

Americans of “the 99%,” of the majority, of the working class must reclaim what has been progressively and exponentially lost to us over the generations via neoliberalism. Tax the rich.

The wealthy have intentionally destroyed class consciousness so that they can exploit the vast majority of people. If we’re going to fight back and ultimately win this class war, it’s time we got familiar with how our politics actually work. jaredyatessexton.substack.com/p/a-thorough...

These men….. Let’s get them & their dark plans and dark money out of politics. Let’s get more HONEST people; more women; more every day people; more diverse representation in our governments at all levels!
