Poisoned Water Is Giving Democrats an Opening in Iowa The rural state's politics are shifting, thanks to high cancer rates.

Hollywood Reporter projects the box office opening weekend of The Odyssey at $257 million globally.

Exactly these 3 are doing just that! #Blues

It’s your right and your obligation to call out corruption and abuse.

A complete list of Lindsey Graham’s sister’s qualifications for running for his Senate seat:

LAUGHABLY FALSE. California joined 40+ other states in taxing digital software like Word and Excel. The other tax? It’s an $8 tax on health INSURANCE PLANS … required by Donald Trump’s “Big Beautiful Betrayal.”

Notice something in common? All led by Republicans — many suffering from California Derangement Syndrome.

Can we possibly make this trend please? Repost 🙏🏼 #TrumpRapedEJeanCarroll #Blues

My Latest: Donald Trump didn't reveal evidence of voter fraud on Thursday night. Instead, his speech was the culmination of a crisis he and Republicans manufactured as an excuse to take over elections. newsletters.democracydocket.com/trump-didnt-...

Feds are eliminating bike lanes, removing lower speed limits, and rolling back pedestrian protections, calling them “social initiatives” that increase congestion. Sean Duffy calls them “DEI bike lanes” and claims he’s “putting safety first.” www.npr.org/2026/07/16/n...

This is ridiculous. We don’t trust these Republican yahoos saying they’ve been talking to Mitch. Gov. Beshear shouldn’t have to beg for proof of life. If McConnell is well enough for photo ops looking years younger, he’s well enough to spend five minutes live on live TV.

If only Sarah Huckabeast were as concerned with the Duggar family’s repeated sex abuse scandals and child labor laws as she is with imaginary Sharia law in Arkansas.

In 2001, Walter Cronkite appeared on the David Letterman show and shared his thoughts.

NEW: If there were any Republican hopes that Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) might change her mind to vote for the SAVE America Act, she made it clear in no uncertain terms that she will never. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Anna Paulina Luna told Rogan O’Handley, a MAGA influencer known as “DC Draino,” that Donald Trump would choose JD Vance as his running mate, information that allowed him to make a winning bet on Polymarket. The CFTC is investigating Luna. Gift link. 👇 www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

The Trump administration has rolled back key protections under the Endangered Species Act. Going forward, newly listed threatened species will no longer automatically receive the same safeguards as endangered species.

How many more soldiers have to die for Trump’s ridiculous war? How many more billions do we have to spend? How many more thousands is it going to cost American families in higher prices? When will Republicans in Congress finally stop acting like neutered cultists?

"I can see very plainly there is a hunger for Democrats to not be the party of strongly worded letters. If I can be one of a litany of voices demanding they start to embrace a willingness to fight, then I have an obligation given my position in this ecosystem to say it." My chat with @atrupar.com:

The insistence on historical accuracy that Republicans are imposing on Christopher Nolan's Odyssey was nowhere to be found when Mel Gibson had this guy playing Jesus Christ.

TODAY IN MAINE Protesters demanding justice for Joan Sebastián Guerrero. His family deserves answers. I haven’t even been allowed to access his body, and his parents are still trying to get visas so they can bring their son’s body home to Colombia.

The narrative the far left is pushing, that Black people are the problem with the Democratic Party, is crazy work. It’s why they are seen as anti-Black. In case you haven’t noticed, we’re consistently among the first to spot problematic candidates, and we bring receipts. I appreciate this video.

This is a disaster.

With the death of two US Servicemen and injuries to others, this is your reminder: Donald Trump once called our fallen troops "suckers" and "losers." Oh, and he's golfing today. Be proud, MAGA.

PURE EVIL Stephen Miller’s worldview in one video clip. "I think the ideal solution would be to cut off their fingers. I don't think it's necessary to kill them entirely. We're not a barbaric people. We respect life. Therefore, torture is the way to go. Because tortured people can live.”

Here’s another shocker. Andrew and Tristan Tate have been arrested in Miami, just before Andrew was set to cohost a bareknuckle boxing event. www.tmz.com/2026/07/18/a...

They deserve to do hard time for rape and human trafficking. But this shot is also destined for the Fashion Police archives. ☠️

🚨US Marshals arrested social media influencers Andrew and Tristan Tate in Miami on an extradition request from the UK following an investigation into sexual offenses reported by seven victims. Andrew Tate faces 42 charges, including rape, human trafficking, indecent images of a child and assault.

Ask not whether Trump threatens democracy; ask what our silence permits. Apathy is the one variable we control. Every uncast vote, every disengaged citizen, hands power away freely. Tyranny needs no army when we surrender through indifference. Show up! That…we can change.

The second ex-wife of David Brouillette, the ICE agent identified as the man who shot and killed Johan Sebastián Durán Guerrero in Biddeford, Maine, sent a message to reporters today describing Brouillette’s violent, abusive behavior, and saying that she had long anticipated his capacity to kill.
