This is an actual exchange from a VP who took an oath to defend the constitution and, as a citizen, is expected to abide by the law. May we one day have accountability for the grotesque lawlessness of this regime.

SEN. @ossoff.senate.gov on fascism in 🇺🇸 : “There is not safety in keeping your head down… People who oppose public policy decisions but are too afraid of retribution from their government to speak their mind should send a chill down all of our spines.”

Here’s what was NOT released today: - the proffer agreement between Maxwell and the DoJ - the agreement transferring Maxwell to club fed - communications showing who waived Maxwell’s sex offender status allowing her transfer and possible work assignments outside prison - the Epstein files

The system really is the problem but it's easier to blame those who are homeless: Be angry at the system, not homeless people, advocate urges ahead of CK encampment meeting www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

“Some 212,000 women over 20 have stopped working or applying for jobs since January, with particularly pronounced drops for Black women and those ages 25 to 34, Labor Department data shows.” You know what would reverse this? #PaidLeaveForAll. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

Someone forgot to take down this webpage: www.justice.gov/usao-dc/pr/v...

First it was troops in L.A., sent to provoke and assault peaceful protesters under the banner of “immigration enforcement.” Now it’s troops in our capital to disappear the homeless. See the pattern? Sooner or later, the monster comes for us all.

Trump’s move to mobilize the National Guard against Americans in DC is another telltale sign of his authoritarian ambitions. But at some point signs of authoritarianism stop being signs and become symptoms of an autocratic regime. We’re far past that point now. www.nbcwashington.com/news/local/t...

Starting in September, Gov. Greg Abbott and GOP lawmakers will make it even harder in Texas to prevent school shootings, suicides, and murders by domestic abusers www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

RP if you agree with Chair Martin and the DNC and want Democrats to fight fire with fire!

The Department of Homeland Security is holding up more than $100 million preapproved dollars intended to help hurricane-battered North Carolina clean up storm damage and fix infrastructure, according to documents obtained by The Post.

Trump is demanding that the census conducted every decade omit undocumented immigrants from the count. He plotted a similar move in 2018, but was blocked by the courts because his plan was unconstitutional. Here's a video I put out the last time he tried this. www.youtube.com/watch?v=kpw-...

A government-sanctioned "truth arbiter" will soon arrive at CBS. Their role will be to ensure that journalists do not criticize this Administration or express views that conflict with its agenda. This is a betrayal—not just of journalistic independence, but of the public trust. 🧵

CBS asked TX Rep. Ann Johnson if Democrats “ran from the fight.” She fired back: “No—abandoning your job is going to Cancun during a deadly freeze.” Then added, “Trump asked GA GOP to find 11K votes—they said no. He asked TX GOP to steal 5 seats—they said, ‘Does July work for you?’”

“Both of them.”

Federal judges decry political attacks from the White House.

Weakest 3 months of job growth since 2020.

Is this evilness really what you Trump voters wanted?!

WATCH: “In video captured by the Tennessee Holler…” On @msnbc, @eriellereshef plays our video of @brotherjones.bsky.social getting banned from @GovBillLee’s Teslas-only tunnel announcement — even though it was a state event, in his own district.

Let’s be clear.

In April, the Trump administration, citing diversity, equity and inclusion issues, abruptly discontinued millions of dollars in mental health grants designed to help students. www.cbsnews.com/amp/news/fed...

Keen insights here from Sec/Mayor Pete - find time to listen www.npr.org/2025/07/28/n...

A different way of practicing politics is possible - where we vigorously fight for what’s right while inviting people into our coalition, rather than pushing them away.

So, as I suspected, the police response to the shootings of Democratic elected officials in Minnesota was actually a complete disaster www.startribune.com/new-details-...

While Donald Trump’s name resurfaces alongside Jeffrey Epstein’s in headlines, two things are quietly happening that no one is talking about and both should make every decent person absolutely furious. Trump’s DOJ is defending the right of clergy to stay silent about child abuse 🤬👇🏼

You can’t make this up. Republicans snuck a “tanning bed tax break” in their bill—the same bill that’s going to make hospitals go under and take away hospital beds. They’re too ashamed to even say it, too.

A Sunday Starter Pack just dropped! This one’s for the everyday fighters: the organizers, the educators, the loudmouths at school board meetings, and the quiet repliers who never miss a chance to clap back with the facts. Follow all. Quote Post. Repost. go.bsky.app/5df7ULY

CHAOS AT OUR AIRPORTS brought to you by Sec. Duffy and the Trump administration.

On #ArmedForcesDay, I recognize the strength, sacrifice, and service of the brave men and women in uniform. Y’all don’t just serve—you lead, protect, and persevere. Your sacrifice doesn’t go unnoticed.

Incomprehensible waste.

It's hard to adequately describe how scary it is to watch mainstream political journalists barely push back against a sitting U.S. president accepting a $400M plane from a foreign government that would literally be designated as an emergency command-and-control center during a nuclear war.

Mary Lou, my dear friend and partner in so much “good trouble” shared her thoughts on why she is voting for me for DPG Chair! I’ve learned so much about unions and community building from my “retired but still inspired” buddy!

Honored to earn the support of this rural leader and county committee chair! We can consistently win in GA without putting in the work in our rural counties!!

What a way to start - running Steve Henson’s first race for state senate was my first full time campaign opportunity. I learned so much about relationship building and the value and importance of our Labor Unions. Steve also was my predecessor as President of Young Dems of GA:-)

Running Congressman Bishop’s re-elect early in my career was how I learned the ropes of organizing in rural Georgia - honored to have his strong support!!

Saddened by the news of the passing of Pope Francis and sending condolences to my Catholic friends and others who were inspired by his teachings and vision

We enjoyed having Milan Singh join on the show this week to discuss the results of the Spring 2025 Yale Poll. Also, @wdinrome.bsky.social attended the Marjorie Taylor Greene "townhall" in person and gave us a full report on the event. Listen to the show live at: spreaker.onelink.me/A4NZ/7sy1mal5

🚨 NEW: Trump lackey Pete Hegseth just erased General Colin Powell from Arlington National Cemetery’s list of notable Americans. Powell, the first Black Secretary of State & Joint Chiefs Chairman, earned his place in history. Hegseth? Just another yes-man for a wannabe authoritarian. Sick.

📸 President @JoeBiden through the years. ♥️

Great recap of the wisdom and sisterhood being lifted up by my PerSisters @thepersistnetwork.bsky.social www.tiktok.com/t/ZT2q7sfnD/

Yes! We should be screaming about those taking a chainsaw to our federal government!! PS - this is not chaos - this is a duly elected Congressman demanding accountability from his seat on the OVERSIGHT committee! #DemleaderLEADING #moreofTHISplease
