WATCH: "They are underwater across the board, and they know it. And that is causing them to double down in public. But it is backfiring. That is why—whether it's a shutdown, whether it's all of this—they want us to blink first. And we have too much to save," says AOC.

Elizabeth Warren on people who say Dems needs to tone down their rhetoric: "Oh, please. Why don't you start with the president of the United States? And every ugly meme he's posted and every ugly word."

Thoughts and prayers

Six months into the 2nd season of the Trump shitshow & the prices he promised to lower are higher, the war he promised to end on day one is still raging & and the Epstein files he promised to declassify either don’t exist, were created by Obama, or say nothing at all. So much winning. 👍🏻

"Democrats don't want the Epstein files released because it would compromise Bill Clinton." Yeah, no, I don't care who's in the files. If Bill Clinton is implicated, I want him held accountable. I'm not part of a cult. I don't give a shit if they're a Democrat.

Goddess bless this woman. @charlotteclymer.bsky.social

Yup, we have another major election Nov. 4! Mayors, school boards, and Pennsylvania’s highest courts are on the line. Register or update your voter registration at vote.pa/register.

The Goddess has the most snarky sense of humor. She picked a multi-racial Los Angeleno to win the US Open golf tournament, Frumps favorite game. On his birth weekend. I love it!

Pittsburgh!! #NoKings. So much bigger than Hands Off in April. @bencollins.bsky.social

This is the most straightforward thing they've said so far. They're using the military to "liberate" Los Angeles from its mayor and governor.

Not a doctor. Not a scientist. No. A longtime heroin addict and current steroid enthusiast who perjured himself in confirmation hearings in order to pursue a twisted agenda that will kill more Americans than Osama Bin Laden.

Oh yay. Two MAGA quarterbacks. What would Dan Rooney be thinking?! 🤮😡🤮

I don’t know who did this, but it’s brilliant

Finally watched the Joni Ernst videos and… I mean, I…. It’s just infuriating how much they think they can get away with. They truly believe the the voters are so beaten down and so disengaged and so hopeless that they can do That to you, and still draw a salary from your money

Maybe we need US Senators who aren’t actually rooting for you to die.

I could be wrong about this but I really think most Americans do not want to be forced to “do their own research” about food & drug & product safety and would rather that the government agencies that have been sorting that all out for them for decades not be obliterated in the name of “efficiency.”

A roundup of recent headlines to help Pennsylvanians evaluate Trump’s first 100 days: (1/8)

It speaks for itself. He really is the Worst

I care less about Signal chats and more about the blacksite offshore concentration camps we're sending random people to without any semblance of a trial, so I'll be interested to see if the national media can rub their bellies and pat their heads at the same time this week. Historically they can't.

Wow. Wayne sure knows how to endear himself with Canadians and Americans.

Hands off Pittsburgh!

Literally me when I see a Cybertruck out here on these Pittsburgh streets

So he’s not just copying Nazi Germany…

Suspending sports and laying the reason on these Musk-Trump cuts could motivate so many to action. It would cut off huge revenues for cable and streaming. It would cut off the NBA, NFL pipelines. It would get attention. Attention university presidents: tough times require bold actions.

Sports lose money at NCAA schools but generate attention, community support, and alumni dollars. Most folks don't know about what the research is and why it is more important to the economy than sports, but many big tech and biotech giants spun out of R1 universities- Google, Genentech...

The nations top research universities (R1) are under assault by the Trump administration. Pitts has paused all PhD admissions for next year. Many R1 schools are also Division 1 NCAA schools. All SEC, Big 10, ACC, Big 12, Ivy League schools. Suspend sports and explain it is due to Musk, Trump

wtf did i just witness

Mike Johnson is right. Referencing Jesus’ commandments of mercy in Matthew 25 IS a radical ideology - to pious blaspheming frauds like Mike Johnson- They worship the manger & the cross - and despise everything Jesus actually said in-between. Mike Johnson doesn’t follow Christ - he obeys Trump.

A religious leader asked for kindness toward vulnerable people. The full machinery of right-wing outrage has now been deployed against her personally. That it takes great bravery to pose this simple request is something to ponder. Can we summon the courage to follow her lead and speak out?

To whom are you beholden?

Hot tip for the next two years: a Republican bill does the opposite of what it’s called. A GOP bill defunding schools that mandate vaccines would be called the “Protect our Schools Act.” A GOP bill raising the retirement age for social security would be called the “Retire With Dignity Act.”

@hayleyjeanne.bsky.social 😳😂

Please don’t say “at least things can’t get worse” because the universe seems to be taking that as a challenge.

Climate change does not play favorites. It doesn't care who you voted for in the last election or your political party or your religion or if you're a good or bad person. It doesn't care if you believe it exists. I pray that some figure this out sooner rather than later.

@duskydamsel.bsky.social Thought of you… Hope you are enjoying FL.

Jeff Bezos never wanted this cartoon to become public. He killed it, and as a result, pulitzer prize editorial cartoonist Ann Telnaes quit. Make sure everyone sees this cartoon.

🔥 😬 🇨🇦 Canadian House of Commons Member Charlie Angus says being next to 🇺🇸 “is like living in an apartment above a meth lab at times” and “while our taxes might be slightly higher, it doesn’t cost us a dime to go to the doctor” Well played sir

This is so true. If you want the Pennsylvania “T” and areas like it, to listen to you, speak plainly.

Not sure who did this (would love to give credit) but perfect depiction of #PresidentMusk
