OMG

😍 Boston, you are beautiful. #NoKings

It’s painfully clear. By refusing to swear in Adelita Grijalva, Speaker Johnson’s covering up Jeffrey Epstein’s global sex-trafficking ring. Hey GOP: Bring back the House, cancel your health care cuts, reopen the government and release the files.

Swearing in isn’t some ceremony. You aren’t a member of Congress until it happens. He knows that. No phones, no staff, nothing. I had to escort her into the Capitol on Wed bc Capitol police must treat her as a public visitor until she’s sworn in. And solo visitors aren’t allowed during shutdown!

This sounds familiar.

This two-parter below is exactly why it's hard to make clothes in the United States. Let's look at how much it costs to produce a button-up shirt in the US. 🧵

Hey @jaketapper.bsky.social, I'm no expert on cognitive illnesses, but it feels a bit detached from reality for a sitting POTUS to forget that he was in power during an attack on the U.S. Capitol, doesn't it? Do you know anyone in journalism with experience covering dementia-like symptoms?

Military families on day 9 of the shutdown lining up at the food bank

Post this everywhere‼️ -and- RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES

This is great. The absurdity of this moment captured. Make it go viral.

A new poll shows 75% of Americans believe Trump has not focused enough on lowering prices. Trump responds to that by just lying about prices. Don’t believe your lying eyes or empty wallets - believe a serial liar making billions in the Middle East!

Texas proudly invading Illinois. It’s hard to describe the level of potential constitutional crisis here.

This morning, the Trump Administration’s Department of War gave me an ultimatum: call up your troops, or we will. It is absolutely outrageous and un-American to demand a Governor send military troops within our own borders and against our will.

Holy shit! 🔥

“In all, then, the Supreme Court’s majority has — in a total of five paragraphs over two orders — allowed Noem’s effort to proceed in opposition to seven rulings from seven judges, amounting to 227 pages of opinions.” www.lawdork.com/p/supreme-co...

What the fuck do you mean I got a longer prison sentence than Diddy

If Congress shuts down and stops working, how will we be able to tell?

Priztker: if federal agents fired upon journalists and protesters, when unprovoked, what would we call it?  I don't think we'd have any trouble calling it what it is. Authoritarianism.  So let's not pretend it's something else when it happens in our American cities.

OMG!!! 😂😂

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

CA Attorney General, Rob Bonta, announces a huge final victory against Trump’s regime for withholding nearly $7 billion dollars in critical public education funding before the start of the school year! Trump and his administration will pay the full amount! A huge victory for our children! 🎉

Do you know how insane and infuriating it is to live in a country where one party claims, with media and public support, the mantle of being the ‘tough on crime’ party while its leader openly calls for convicted criminals to be released from prison ‘or else’?

NEW: We now know what Bove lied to Congress about according to the 3rd whistleblower. He lied when he said he didn’t offer promotions for DoJ lawyers who helped him dismiss the Eric Adams case and consequences for those who didn’t. There is audio evidence. Gift link: wapo.st/4fdVVmX

Justice Kagan cuts to the chase: "By means of [its repeated, unexplained grants of emergency relief to the Trump administration], this Court may facilitate the permanent transfer of authority, piece by piece by piece, from one branch of Government to another."

Statement from the King family on the release of 230,000 files related to their father, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

Famous Files: 4) X 3) Rockford 2) Penske 1) Epstein

CBS canceled Colbert’s show just THREE DAYS after Colbert called out CBS parent company Paramount for its $16M settlement with Trump – a deal that looks like bribery. America deserves to know if his show was canceled for political reasons. Watch and share his message.

Firing everyone who could tell you what you're doing is unethical or illegal does not make what you're doing ethical or legal.

"We now have a 50% tariff on Brazil, because it puts in jail its insurrectionists. And so that means for those of us who drink Brazilian coffee: Your next coffee comes with an insurrection infusion fee, as we try to support those who put the coup in coup-pucino."

I'm not gonna lie, y'all: even nearly a decade into this, it still feels surreal that a sitting POTUS can do one long, bizarre stream-of-consciousness ramble about whatever silly shit happens to pop into his head on national television, and political media still shrug their shoulders + write it up.

Democratic Congressional campaign officials release social/digital ads targeting 35 House Republicans for vote on Trump tax-and-spending bill and its impact on rural hospitals

Wow.

WE JUST NEED FOUR REPUBLICANS TO STAND WITH THE AMERICAN PEOPLE. FOUR.

If someone doesn’t ask Karoline Leavitt why she posted on social media that this bill includes no taxes on Social Security when she knows it is a lie and she intentionally lied to the American people, everyone in the room should lose their jobs.

When Donald Trump sued me and others for RICO, we didn't settle. We fought and won. Perhaps the legacy media should give that a try and stop debasing itself.

It would be great if @durbin.senate.gov @whitehouse.senate.gov & others on SJC ask Emil Bove whether--given Bove's own claim that Eric Adams couldn't be prosecuted bc it would amount to election interference--whether Trump just interfered in NYC Mayoral election & if so, whether he'll charge Trump.

AOC: "On this point of tax on tips, as one of the only people in this body who has lived off of tips, I want to tell you a little bit about the scam ... the cap on that is $25,000 while you're jacking up taxes on people who make less than $50,000 across the US ... while kicking them off the ACA."

Please spread this as far and wide as you can.

Oh my....🫢

True

Lisa Murkowski cuts a last minute deal solely to benefit Alaska, exempting it from some of the more odious parts of the bill to secure her vote and sell out the rest of the US. Yeah this stuff sucks and hurts a lot of people, but I got Alaskans exempted so the hell with you.

Damn‼️ Federal agents blew a door off for this? Federal agents blasted their way into an LA home where Jenny Ramirez lives with her boyfriend and two kids. She heard the blast while checking on her 6-year-old, with her 1-year-old in her arms. Ramirez says everyone in the home is a U.S. citizen. 🧵

If you ever see John Roberts in person and don’t tell him to go fuck himself, you’ll regret it forever.

the president does not actually have the power to fire a university president or a museum director, but if elites simply roll over under pressure, then effectively he does

Miami just canceled its November election & pushed it to 2026. No public vote, just canceled. Mayor Suarez & Joe Carollo get to stick around an extra year. This feels like a power grab. If one city can delay elections for “participation,” what’s to stop others from doing it to silence opposition?

NOT A SINGLE DEMOCRATIC SENATOR should confirm Emil Bove for the 3d Circuit Court of Appeals.

🔥 WATCH: “I don’t want to hear about the Biden administration— you’re here on behalf of the Trump administration.” @ossoff.bsky.social won’t let Trump’s budget guy russ vought get away with the Biden-blaming they all try to do.

People in wheelchairs are getting arrested right now in the Russell Senate Office Building in DC. They showed up to tell Congress not to cut their Medicaid, because they cant afford health care without it. If you look closely you can see the zip ties on their hands. #WeWontGetOverLosingMedicaid
