Almost Home - this month’s riso print to ring in the fall. Not sure how to describe it, but this time of year always feels like I’m almost “home” so I wanted to come up with something that touches on that feeling a little

On the National Mall this morning, a new satirical statue is up celebrating Jeffrey Epstein and Trump's "friendship" in honor of National Friendship Month.

Pritzker: "One of the reasons Trump wants to send troops into cities is bc he wants to be able to take control of the 2026 elections...if they've got troops in cities, & it becomes a kind of norm for people, then it won't be abnormal for them when they're going to vote having troops at ballot boxes"

Health insurance costs are about to rise by a record amount. This is happening after the seven largest publicly traded health insurance companies reported a combined $71 BILLION in profits in 2024. Instead of addressing this, Trump is spreading misinformation about Tylenol.

Within 6 months the number of deaths due to USAID cuts will exceed the number of US COVID deaths. Sit with that for a moment.

Goebbles or Miller?

They want you mad at trans people and immigrants so you don’t think about them shifting wealth from the bottom to the top with every move they make. And Trump’s trillions transfer is accelerating the process.

Why does it take a BRITISH newspaper to break a story like this? Where the hell is the American media? 🤨

Gavin Newsom: "I'll be signing a bill, the first in the nation, saying enough to ICE, unmask. What are you afraid of? You're going to go out and you're going to do enforcement? Provide an ID.Tell us what agency you represent."

Here's a short happy-go-lucky 🎶 parody about the way that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is now collapsing American healthcare - based off #PaulSimon's toe-tapping "Me and Julio Down by the Schoolyard". youtu.be/FDiXrd-R68U It's called: "Measles and Polio Down in the Schoolyard."

A woman protesting outside the ICE facility in Broadview, Illinois, was brutally assaulted by goons who used mace and sting balls on her.

'What It Looks Like When ICE Violates' First Amendment: Candidate Kat Abughazaleh Thrown to Ground www.commondreams.org/news/kat-abu...

Alex Acosta KNEW what Epstein did to those girls, that or he chose to be willfully ignorant. The Oversight Committee found his testimony completely dishonest. He lost all credibility, refused to answer questions with any clarity, and if I had to take a wild guess, he is guilty of perjury.

Blowing up boats in the Caribbean without any legal authority risks dragging the United States into another war, and provoking attacks against American citizens. I'm getting ready to force a vote with @kaine.senate.gov to ensure Congress' power to declare war is not so easily trampled.

The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) sued Maine and Oregon Tuesday, alleging that the states violated federal voting laws by refusing a department demand to hand over their voter rolls. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

We're 7 months in and Trump and the oligarchs have completely seized control of the media. If you criticize them, your show will be pulled from the air. This is what dictators do. Fascism isn't coming, it's here.

Bye bye, First Amendment. Hello, fascism.

Smells as lovely as it looks #bloomscrolling #flowers #blueskyflowers

Too bad the GOP effectively criminalized studying how information moves online and news orgs laid off and demonized all the reporters who covered the burgeoning online accelerationist performative death cults. All of that work was somehow "censorship" that needed to be stopped. Now we're here.

1. In the immediate aftermath of Charlie Kirk's shooting, the WSJ laundered claims that "transgender symbols" were found with the shooter's gun. Now, a press conference reveals that NO such symbols were found. WSJ owes a full retraction and apology. Subscribe to support our journalism.

Release the Epstein files!!!

Yet another point of evidence that liberalism cannot survive low taxes -- it allows billionaires to consolidate power over core elements of civic life.

NEW: Ted Cruz just asked Kash Patel about the "Antifa and LGBTQ engravings on the bullets." There were no antifa or LGBTQ engravings on the bullets.

Q: Do you think it would've been fitting to lower the flags to half staff when Melissa Hortman, the Minnesota House Speaker, was gunned down by an assassin? TRUMP: I'm not familiar. The who?

I don't know how to get stories like this to be everywhere. There are hundreds or thousands of them, and yet we're drowning in stories about Ka$h trying to find a trans person who winked at Charlie Kirk's killer.

The real emergency is that Trump is destroying economic growth with tariffs at about the same rate that he’s chasing foreign-born workers out of the country. The reason unemployment isn’t getting bigger is that the economy is getting smaller. trib.al/k3dMYSy

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion, after getting $1.2 trillion richer over the past year alone. Meanwhile, the rest of the country is getting squeezed by tariffs and high prices for groceries, utilities, and health care. The system is broken.

korean reporting is nightmarish on the conditions Korean workers were contained in

Buttigieg: "We are not getting the leadership we need to bring this country together from the White House ... in order to deprive political violence of its power, we have to reject anyone who would try to exploit political violence. The response to this cannot be for the government to crack down."

Watch Brian Kilmeade casually suggest we should murder all the homeless people in the United States. Over half a million human beings. He has no business being on TV talking to millions. We cannot gloss over insanity like this. Otherwise they will take it as permission to go ahead and do it.

So to paraphrase, “The administration egregiously broke the law and did harm to people, but we judges don’t have the power to punish them. Nor do we have the power to make the victims whole. Also, we can’t stop them from continuing to break the law.” There are no checks or balances. Not anymore.

This is unreal. Jesus would be hanging out with the people Brian Kilmeade wants the state to murder. They do not follow God

If Fox News had any integrity, they’d fire Brian Kilmeade for saying unhoused people deserve lethal injection. But we know they won’t. Gotta keep the ad dollars rolling to pay off all those lawsuits. Integrity isn’t their business model. #JournalismMatters #CD32

Presidents? SCOTUS grants them immunity. Corporations? SCOTUS makes it easier for them to pollute. Billionaires? SCOTUS says they can buy elections. But if you look Latino, speak Spanish, or work at a low wage job, SCOTUS says you can be abducted by masked agents. Hello?

luigi mangione murdered a healthcare executive and opposed "wokeism." i don't know why people insist that killers need some coherent ideology. most people don't even have coherent wardrobes, let alone a coherent worldview.

Breaking News: The EPA moved to stop requiring polluters to report their emissions of greenhouse gases. The proposal would end a key tool the government uses to track carbon dioxide, methane and other gases that are driving climate change.

How about that.

The #authoritarianplaybook is the same everywhere. Military policing of civilians, overreaction to peaceful protests, provocations to justify a junta, media reporting on small, isolated incidents of violence to sell stories and ads and make it seem the situation is worse. youtube.com/shorts/Ul9jk...
