Thoughts for people living in safe blue cities and states: Alabama is the birthplace of the Civil Rights Movement. People bled and died for our right to vote. #AllRoadsLeadToTheSouth 🧵

Thomas Massie pushed for the release of the Epstein files, and the response has been tens of millions in outside spending, smear campaigns, and coordinated attacks. If this is what they do to a sitting member of Congress, imagine what Epstein survivors face when considering whether to come forward.

The State Department fired 250 foreign service officers by email on Friday amid active wars in Iran and Ukraine, while Iran and Ukraine negotiations are now being led by Trump's business associates and family members instead of professional diplomats.

The shark whisperer who attends to their discomfort. To date, Tina has removed >300 fish hooks from the sharks' sore mouths.. 🦈 We, sharks and appreciative humans alike, are rooting for you 👌 #sharks #kindness #sealife

“The reforms I’m describing do not come naturally to me. It’s something I resisted for a long time, but I think if you look at what's necessary to reinforce democratic self-government in the United States, you simply can’t do that with the filibuster and this Court in place.” — @joshtpm.bsky.social

This is not okay! Colorado Gov. Jared Polis announced today that he’s commuting the sentence of Tina Peters a former county clerk and 2020 election denier who received nine years for tampering with election equipment

Virginia Dems asked for permission instead of forgiveness. A mistake, IMHO.

Rep. Massie (R-KY): I’m walking to an airplane to rejoin the most expensive congressional race in U.S. history. It’s turned into a referendum on whether Israel gets to buy seats in Congress. And what they found out is that my seat is really expensive.

The count on you being exhausted by the firehose of corruption and bullshit. But THIS. THIS is grounds to march on DC and demand the END of this mafia administration. This is the biggest middle finger to America.

Disgraceful. Absolutely disgraceful. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Fetterman is buying the canard that he has a future in the GOP. He doesn’t. Neither did Sinema or Manchin. The stroke fucked up his prefrontal cortex. He can barely string a sentence together. He serve no one but himself

I was disappointed to miss capturing two Indigo Buntings yesterday in Central Park. But the first bird I saw early this morning--an Indigo Bunting! 😂😂😂 #Bunting #CentralPark #birding

The relentless morning rain has stopped at Saint Mary lake in Glacier National Park, and the sun will soon come out to warm up the land. Montana, August 2025. #Scape #SaintMaryLake #Glacier #NationalParks #photography #travel #hiking #weather #summer #lake

Senate Republicans just moved forward with nearly 50 nominees without consent or agreement from Democrats. They’re rushing them through because they’re unqualified. Shameful.

Today, I rise to support our veterans and the brave men and women who have served this country. And I rise to say hell no to the privatization of the VA! ✊🇺🇸

PRESIDENTIAL GRIFT ON AN EPIC SCALE Trump’s “presidential library” sounds less like a library and more like an oligarch theme park. Florida handed him prime oceanfront land for $10. The “library” will include a for-profit luxury hotel.

I fear the three baby bunnies that took up residence in my yard are becoming pet buns. I worry when I don’t have eyes on all three and they’re starting to get used to my voice. When they startle I tell them it’s okay they’ll settle right back down and keep eating. Accidental Snow White situation.

This is medical abuse! Ana is one of the loudest voices for these women and children being subjected to such evilness by ICE, the Border Patrol, and DHS. #pinks #ICEcriminal neglect and abuse‼️

In this 1997 commencement speech, I offered a warning that America's growing economic divide would undermine the common good. If you're curious how that speech holds up 29 years later (or what I look like without a beard), watch this.

9 years ago, Ted Koppel told FOX Hannity to his face that he was bad for America! It still stands today! youtube.com/watch?v=tmaK...

Travis Kelce and Colin Jost joked about being the least famous person in their relationships!

"To the folks at CBS, in the words of the great Ed Murrow, good night and good luck, motherf* kers."

As costs skyrocket and Americans struggle to afford basic necessities, the Trump administration is wasting MILLIONS of taxpayer dollars on vanity projects — and doing it through no-bid contracts. My thoughts on the road ahead on @briefingwithpsaki.bsky.social 👇🏽

The legacy media of the United States is failing the entire world. @bagleycartoons.bsky.social

Straight-up admitting it’s all for show. Unbelievable stuff.

For those of you who don’t believe aliens exist, I give you NBA Commissioner Adam Silver.

Everyone said Trump was manipulating the stock market for personal gain. Turns out you were right. New financial disclosure forms released today by the U.S. Office of Government Ethics show Trump made at least $220 million (and potentially up to $750 million)

ICE is moving forward with its plans to convert commercial warehouses into mass detention camps which may become the largest prisons in the entire country. Initially, ICE planned to open the first one by now. That never happened. Now they’re targeting early next year.

A third of the way through this book and I’m already calling it a must read. A tradwife influencer wakes up in 1855 and has to live the life she cosplays online. SO freaking good so far.

A Gallup poll found that seven out of 10 Americans said they would oppose a data center being built near them. Opposition is so intense, the poll found, that more Americans would rather live near a nuclear power plant than a data center. | Washington Post archive.ph/8yQin

Hakeem Jeffries: The country’s falling apart. The economy is a disaster. Gas prices have skyrocketed. He’s gotten us involved in this reckless and costly war of choice in the Middle East… but he has time to post about me seemingly every day—sometimes multiple times a day

Trump's DOJ is now suing the DC Bar for disciplining top lawyers who tried to help Trump overturn the 2020 election. Anyone else remember when the DOJ and Attorney General were supposed to serve the American people, not serve as the president's personal attorney?
