By 9:00 pm Eastern, I'll drop a critical Jack Hopkins Now Newsletter article: Pete Hegseth ordered an all-hands of America’s generals to Quantico. No agenda. No precedent. I break it down: scenarios, red lines, and what it means for freedom This decision by Hegseth spiked the hair on my neck.

Hard to see this not being really bad

Trump pushes to fire a top U.S. attorney for refusing to fabricate charges, pushes FCC to silence critics like Kimmel & The View, gets laughed out of court for his $15B NYT suit, and GOP drives toward a gov’t shutdown. Today's bulletin is vital reading:

Many of your grandparents were the original Antifa. They fought against the Nazis on the beaches of Normandy and in the forests of Ardennes. They literally helped save the world from the scourge of fascism. Today, under this regime, they would be declared terrorists. Let it sink in.

Aura and Guardio have both told me about massive massive data breaches and not just my own.. I recommend either or both

The Dept. of Education has pulled funding for programs in 8 states that support students with both hearing and vision loss. A staffer at one program says he was told the Trump admin. took issue with 2 words on the grant application: “transition" and “privilege": www.propublica.org/article/trum...

“Stop crying,” Rick Rescorla told his wife, on September 11, 2001. “I have to get these people out safely. If something should happen to me, I want you to know I’ve never been happier. You made my life.” #NewYorkerArchive

I agree with you Lee No fallen hero, Mr Kirk. But today I will honor a hero Todd Beamer and so many Courageous Heroes. Firefighters &First Responders Honor the Fallen #NeverForget

The president went on TV to attack political opponents and blame them for the killing of Charlie Kirk, even though we don’t know who shot him. If there is anything this man can do to worsen the situation, he will do it. Despicable.

here's an idea: maybe guns shouldn't be so fucking easy to get

WHAT THE ACTUAL F*CK

In the age of AI it can be so hard to tell what's real and what's fake, so here's a tip: if Donald Trump says it's fake, it is definitely 100% real.

Why does this not surprise me

Hakeem Jeffries has appointed Eric Swalwell, Jasmine Crockett, Jared Moskowitz and Jamie Raskin to serve as the democratic members on the new January 6th committee. What great choices in my opinion, all four of these members will fight to make sure the truth is not whitewashed.

Highly recommend today’s Marc Maron wtf podcast featuring @markhamillofficial.bsky.social Excellent!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏🤘🤘🤘🤘✨✨✨✨

Like a diseased rat, the loathsome piece of shit scurried in to the US Open stadium when it was relatively empty, but the pedophile president still couldn't escape the boos. Trump is the most universally despised US president in history. 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣👇

Chicago Mayor Deploys Salt Trucks as Mobile Barricades to Block ICE Operations

Everyday trump does horrible stuff that erodes democratic norms and also the administration should release all the Epstein documents

Today, we heard harrowing stories from survivors of Epstein's abuse. Epstein is dead, but the hurt & harm he caused is alive and well. We'll keep pushing for accountability, including a public Congressional hearing with survivors and the release of the full Epstein files.

True Statement! Anyone else? #Pinks #ProudBlue

No idea what this Oval Office announcement is. Could be resigning Could be apologizing because Stephen Miller molted all over the Residence and someone caught staff dumping the exuviae out of the window Could be clarifying that tariff revenue is really eleventy three trillion

What in the ever loving fuck is going on here

Over 300 MILLION American citizen's files stolen by DOGE. Why can't 1 person with access steal the EPSTEIN Files? #LEAKtheEPSTEIN_Files

The same cancer that killed my sister in law… I’m so MF’ing offended by the cruelty of these monsters

Who agrees? ✋ #EpsteinTrumpPedoFiles

Give us a break. The only action you guys have taken is to weaken gun laws, allowing scores of criminals to get guns; shut down funding for anti-violence programs in our cities; close the Office of Gun Violence Prevention. You've taken action - and it's gotten people killed.

CDC scientists receive a heroes welcome after walking out today.

For its own survival, America needs to ban assault weapons and RFK Jr. (And Trump, if we’re going big.)

Y’all worried about Gavin Newsom running for president—if we don’t win the midterms there won’t be any presidential run to argue about. People need to start understanding we don’t have a fictional federal government. We’re running on residue from the past, only protected by city & state. #Pinks

🚨Border Patrol arrested two firefighters who were actively fighting a wildfire at the time. When the other members of the crew asked for a chance to say goodbye, a Border Patrol agent told the crew member “you need to get the f*ck out of here. I’m going to make you leave.”

Vaccines are safe and effective. RFK Jr. isn’t.

I recently visited Chicago to see the legendary Grace Jones. That’s a very strong city, and one that has no need for TFG or his BS regime.. Illinois is is a beautiful state btw 🤘🤘🤘👏👏👏

Shut it. Do not open your meaningless mouth, if your first thought is, “Thoughts and Prayers!” Today’s mass shooting is brought to you by the Republican Party. Get the damn guns off our streets! #Voices4Victory #Pinks #DemVoice1

You are living through the unthinkable: the president of the United States using the military to seize domestic power. The greatest crisis of executive power in American history, at the hands of the worst, most corrupt, and most unfit president in American history.

They’re making fun of the media referring to Kilmar Abrego Garcia as a Maryland man as they threaten to send him to Uganda, a country where he’s never lived. They’re simply fucking vile.
