It baaaaack. "Just like a toppled confederate general forced back onto a public square, the Donald Trump Jeffrey Epstein statue has risen from the rubble to stand gloriously on the National Mall once again," the group Secret Handshake tells @huffpost.com.

Thanks to @altssa.altgov.info for sharing this gem. Was looking for cat videos to cheer us up at #altCDC but I legit laughed out loud here.

NEW: Sen. Tammy Duckworth is calling for Pete Hegseth to resign. "If this PR stunt proved anything, it's that the best thing Pete Hegseth can do to strengthen our military is resign in disgrace immediately."

On a visit to New Zealand, FBI Director Kash Patel gave the country’s police and spy bosses gifts of inoperable pistols that were illegal to possess under local gun laws and had to be destroyed, New Zealand law enforcement agencies told The Associated Press. https://to.pbs.org/4nXLMhB

I don't want 100 troops sent to Chicago. It's a major escalation that must be opposed. I also want folks to understand that the agents that have been attacking us at Broadview are more heavily armed and elaborately, tactically outfitted than National Guard troops would be. We're already in some shit

How about nobody refer to America as moving towards an authoritarian system and be more accurate by saying America is currently coming to the awareness of the need to cast off this authoritarian attempted overthrow

I hope it's clear to everyone now that Trump really is going for it - he's trying to become a dictator. I don't know if he'll succeed, but he's working to install himself as an autocrat unaccountable to voters. And he's weaponizing the military against Americans who oppose him as part of that effort

There aren’t enough soldiers, sailors, and marines, plus reservists and National Guard all added together to subdue and pacify the population of the United States. Assuming that all current military personnel will go along and support from the gravy seals and incompetent opposition.

When you think you're World War II's Patton, but you're really just M*A*S*H's Major Frank Burns.

This, from The Guardian: www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

An unprecedented violation of our civic and Constitutional traditions. Calling every military leader in the world back to the U.S. to hear a wildly inappropriate partisan campaign speech followed by a fascist call to use the military against Americans.

The professionalism that our most senior military commanders exhibited with their silence today despite repeated attempts by Hegseth & Trump begging them to please clap was encouraging, & should be an example to all troops when they try to exploit them for partisan politics. bsky.app/profile/atru...

"After his release, the 79 year old U.S. citizen was treated at a local hospital for multiple broken ribs, a dislocated elbow..." ktla.com/news/79-year... www.yahoo.com/news/article...

In a sane country with competent leadership, the 50 highest-ranking Democrats would call a press conference to denounce what just happened as a threat to the republic and demand Trump's immediate impeachment and removal from office. I don't know he could make his intentions more clear.

Actual HUD website right now: 🔗 hud.gov ⁉️😵‍💫 AND here’s the Hatch Act 👇 "The Hatch Act generally prohibits federal employees from engaging in partisan political activity while on duty, in a federal facility, or using federal property." 🚨 For those in power: yes, it applies to you. 🚨

I just want to know... what are y'all (in government positions) doing about it? It seems to me like nothing. These are unprecedented times that call for unprecedented measures. Quit talking... do Something on behalf of We the People!

Mass shootings in the US, per Gun Violence Archive: 2015: 332 2016: 383 2017: 347 2018: 335 2019: 414 2020: 611 2021: 689 2022: 644 2023: 659 2024: 503 So far in 2025...324 mass shootings in just 272 days. We do not have to keep living like this.

How appropriate that this reminds me of a scene from a movie called “Clueless.”

1 thing undiscussed in “autism/Tylenol” BS is acetaminophen half-life is a few hours, it’s not something we take daily in pregnancy&it’s not even a good hypothesis to propose transient low-dose exposure@ some unspecified time wld rearrange brain development in some vague way. Not even EtOH does that

A very big Onion announcement: The Onion has spent the last two months working on a masterpiece. It's a documentary titled Jeffrey Epstein: Bad Pedophile. It's so good, in fact, we were set to release it in theatres nationwide on October 2nd. Then two weeks ago, Charlie Kirk was shot.

“I’m really good at this stuff.* Your countries are going to hell.” — President tRump, speaking the United Nations. *Except for pronouncing "Acetaminophen"

The statue of Trump and Epstein holding hands mid-frolic wasn't the first anti-Trump artwork on the National Mall in recent months. But it was the first to be removed, despite having a permit.

I don't think that. But, I do think in this situation, there could have been an opportunity to try and control the narrative.

This shooting could go either way, imo. At this time, I have more questions than answers about the stripper clip Patel posted. “ANTI-ICE” written in perfect caps is the simplest possible narrative device. Attackers typically use more idiosyncratic slogans or manifestos, if they leave msg at all.

🧵 In addition to lying here, Trump and Kennedy put fetuses at risk: acetaminophen is prescribed for fever, and fevers can DEFINITELY cause problems for fetuses! "Decades of studies have shown a clear association between fevers early in pregnancy and a specific set of birth defects, ...

Uh, might that be called….SOCIALISM???!!!!

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy addressed the U.N. General Assembly a day after President Trump made another shift in his stance on Russia's war in Ukraine.

Medical science: humanity's greatest gift to itself.

LONDON MAYOR SADIQ KHAN: “I appear to be living rent-free in Trump’s head… when people behave a certain way you’ve got to believe them. Trump has shown he is racist, sexist, Islamophobic.”

They are continuing to collect signatures on the big Fighting CR campaign until September 30!! Can they hit 5K? 6K? 7K? Let's get there y'all!!!! Both named and anonymous signatures are welcome. Federal employees and Allie’s!

So the shooter wrote "anti-ICE" messages on bullets, quite literally, but only shot prisoners. Yeah right. The sad part is that MAGA is dumb enough to believe it all.

One glaring gap in Trump's autism campaign is any willingness to help the people & families affected by autism today. If he were serious, he would demand increases to respite care, life skills training, employment opportunities, & healthcare coverage. Until he does, this is just more nonsense.
