The government shuts down in just a few hours, and House Republicans are nowhere to be found. But they're still spreading lies on social media. I'm here to correct the record.

NEW: Rachel Maddow drops unseen bodycam footage of feds coordinating the arrest of Newark Mayor Baraka. I REPEAT: the feds ordered his arrest even though he wasn’t breaking any laws. Federal agent: “We are arresting the mayor right now per the Deputy Attorney General of the United States.”

Did Donald Trump cancel Jimmy Kimmel? We need a free press, not a few corporate media giants bowing down to Trump.

ICE is targeting community members with no criminal record. Agents are sitting outside of churches and schools. Driving unmarked vans and breaking car windows. These violent ICE arrests don't make us safer — they intentionally stoke fear and tear communities apart.

Representative Jason Crow (D-CO) on this moment. Not just the transcript but the video of a floor speech yesterday. A rallying cry:

Trump coerced ABC into silencing Jimmy Kimmel — a brazen violation of the First Amendment. We’re introducing legislation to hold Trump accountable, help Americans protect themselves from this abuse of power, and stand with those who refuse to bow to political blackmail.

The rightwing machine wants you scared of progress, but I’m here to speak their worst nightmare out loud… hartmannreport.com/p/a-far-left...

NEW: With Trump acting as both POTUS and as his own crypto brand ambassador, it’s hard to tell which job he’s doing at any given moment. There’s no “potential conflict of interest” here. It’s pure corruption.

We marched with thousands in the streets of Chicago, joining more than 1,000 over actions across the country, to say no to the billionaire takeover and fascist rule. We are standing up for our communities and our schools. We are fighting for a future where everyone can thrive, not just the few.

Thank you, Chicago, for protecting people, our laws, and democracy! ❤️

Of all the “honestly I never expected” things — Congress absolutely rolling over and abdicating its power to the White House — any White House — is one of the most shockingly unnecessary. It will not be remembered well in history, by either side, ironically. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/29/u...

Together, we can restore democracy!

By a vote of 27-17, Senate Democrats voted to stop sending arms shipments to a Netanyahu government which has waged a horrific, immoral and illegal war against the Palestinian people. The tide is turning. Americans don't want to spend billions to starve children in Gaza.
