🚨 Trump’s team just announced MORE layoffs — on top of the 1,300+ they did Friday. Half had to be reversed (they blamed “coding errors.”) These people protect us from Ebola, bioterrorism, and global outbreaks. The incompetence is staggering — and he’s not done yet.

Donald Trump is threatening to rob 750,000 people of their pay — and force them to quit in the process. It’s all part of the plan: weaken government so his friends can cash in.

Here’s how MAGA is playing chicken with YOUR healthcare. They want to kick the can to November 21st. Problem? We’ll see skyrocketing premiums on November 1st. Millions could lose coverage — and Dems lose the chance to fight it. More explained 👇

The monthly jobs report didn't come out today because of the shutdown. It’s one of the clearest indicators of our economy’s health. THAT's the hidden reason Trump won’t reopen the government: To hide data that might show his tariffs are wrecking the country. Explained 👇

Trump just pulled his BLS pick. Even Senators Collins & Murkowski wouldn’t meet with him. This is a huge victory for workers and the economy — and proof that holding Trump’s feet to the fire gets results.

If the government shuts down, Members of Congress keep getting paid. Janitors get screwed — they NEVER do. This is on top of Trump threatening to fire 2 million workers. Here’s how this works.

Breastfeeding women are “almost treated like a terrorist” when going through airport security, says @ericswalwell.bsky.social. He asked “Why are we doing this?” His wife responded, “Why don’t you do something about it?” He co-sponsored the BABES act as a result. Full episode links in replies.

🚨 BREAKING OVERNIGHT 🚨 Trump is threatening to fire up to 1.9 MILLION federal employees if the government shuts down. Is it legal? Probably not. Does he care? Not at all. It’s a scare tactic to make Democrats bend the knee. We can’t take the bait.

@mcbride.house.gov's message to trans kids. 👇

Trump just delayed a key report that shapes how inflation is measured — and may never release it. First it was delaying accountability reports for public companies. Now this. He’s stealing information from us so he’s free to do whatever he wants. More explained 👇

“We want rich and powerful men who abused young girls or who covered up for Epstein to face consequences.” @khanna.house.gov on his bipartisan Epstein files push. “Have we ever been able to get [part] of the MAGA base on our side? Don’t we need to do that just in terms of math?”

“The Netanyahu government is not simply targeting Hamas. They’ve gone way beyond that” @vanhollen.senate.gov offers his perspective after visiting the Middle East. “Nothing’s voluntary when 90% of the homes in Gaza have been destroyed or extremely damaged”

Great to sit down with @khanna.house.gov to talk America’s dangerous political divides, the effect Big Tech has on democracy, and how Democrats win again. Episode drops tomorrow wherever you get your podcasts! Subscribe link in bio.

“There are a lot of big financial interests in New York that are scared about a mayor who would focus on affordability for working people” @vanhollen.senate.gov on @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social: “Those are exactly some of the big moneyed interests that the Democratic Party needs to be taking on”

Just 22,000 jobs added last month. Well below expectations. The report was led by a career official who’s served under both parties. The verdict is in: The numbers aren’t faked. Not rigged. They’re real. This is Trump’s economy. Trump has nobody to blame but himself.

It's Labor Day. This is who Trump really is: - Stripped 1M WORKERS' bargaining rights while plastering his face on the Labor Dept - Closed miner health clinics while claiming to support them - Cut $2.4B from youth & senior job programs Thank those actually fighting today.

What’s at stake as Congress returns this week? – The latest on the Epstein Files – Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” vs. the upcoming budget fight (and why they’re different) – Will the government shut down? @gracemeng.bsky.social joins us to break it all down.

Stephen Miller claims DC’s never had a longer homicide-free streak than now — giving Trump all the credit. Wrong. 5 months ago, DC went 16 straight days. Trump has cut more from law enforcement than any in modern history. We all want safety. Brazen lies make us less safe.

📣 THIS WEEK: Former FEMA Administrator Deanne Criswell on why FEMA is so critical, why eliminating it would be a non-starter, and what keeps her up at night about the next major hurricane. Tomorrow.

Lots of talk about Trump, Powell, and the Fed lately — but not a lot of clear explanations. The Fed decides what you pay on your mortgage, car loan, credit card. Here’s what you need to know — and why Trump’s meddling could be a real problem👇

Medicaid cuts don’t happen in a vacuum — states are forced to take on the burden. In CT: – 40% of kids rely on Medicaid – 40% of nursing home care depends on it Governor Ned Lamont lays out the stakes.

@gavinnewsom.bsky.social’s trolling of Trump is so effective because it exposes the absurd truth: The President’s behavior — which is supposed to set the example — is disqualifying. We can’t normalize it. MAGA's outrage only proves his point. We need more of this. Everywhere.

While we’re distracted, Trump redefining who counts as American — & who doesn’t. It’s not just the undocumented — it’s the entire system. The writing was on the wall. Now DHS is executing. And somehow…this isn’t even making headlines. It’s happening right under our noses.

A voter is more likely to be struck by lightning than commit voter fraud. So what’s this really about? Excuses. For when he loses the midterms. Trump never blames himself — not for 2020. Not for inflation. Not for COVID. He’s setting the table to pass the buck. Again.

We must remember who we are: We stand with democracies, not dictators. With the invaded, not the invaders. With freedom, not tyranny. We stand with Ukraine. 🇺🇦 Full YouTube episode in replies.

What should we expect from Trump's summit with Putin today? How did we get here? Check out my guest host today of @davidpakmanshow.bsky.social featuring Senator @chriscoons.bsky.social and former Principal National Security Advisor Jon Finer 👇 www.youtube.com/watch?v=t2aC... .

Trump’s not hiding racism behind a dog whistle anymore — it’s blasting through a megaphone. We saw it on @cnbc.com. See for yourself 👇 Foreign-born Americans are Americans. “Inner city” people are working their a**es off. This isn't normal. We need to call it out every time.

Donald Trump is literally defunding the police. He wants you to think he “backs the blue” — but he's slashing billions from law enforcement. Want to fight crime? Trump’s cutting you off at the knees. For him, it’s not about safety. It’s about the show. 👇

They’re attacking the Bureau of Labor Statistics using examples that have nothing to do w/ it. GDP is measured by Commerce — not BLS. This is a campaign to discredit BLS so they can install new people, rewrite methodology & contracts — all to benefit Trump.

Trump now has the power to goose the numbers and enrich himself — if a loyalist is in place. Here’s the roadmap of what he could do. Full YouTube breakdown below 👇 www.youtube.com/watch?v=Itlt...
