Easily, his most elaborate and destructive distraction from #TheEPSEIN_Files... yet.

Raskin: "It's not lost on anyone that shutting the government down allows them not swear in our new colleague, Ms Grijalva from Arizona, who would be the 218th signature to discharge the Epstein files and to put a vote on that on the House floor."

Are we great yet?

DelBene: He’s the president of the United States, and instead of talking about standing up for our communities or what’s best for the country, he’s talking about inflicting pain if he doesn’t get what he wants. He’s been inflicting pain on the American people since he went into office in January

Because Trump is an all aesthetics guy, who doesnt get that doing nakedly obvious bullshit like this instead of actually figuring out a way to end the shutdown wont really work for him the way he thinks it will

I can’t believe I’m watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES I know we are “used to it” but it is absolutely insane

Mike Johnson continues to refuse to swear in a Democrat who won in a landslide.

They're about to shut down the government to protect the Epstein Files from disclosure. Whatever is in the files must be so unhinged as to be beyond imagination.

Semi-regular reminder that a sane country would have already impeached and removed. But then again a sane country wouldn’t have elected a maniac criminal twice in the first place.

Jimmy Kimmel said, "Maybe most of all, I want to thank the people who don’t support my show and what I believe, but support my right to share those beliefs anyway."

Kamala Harris on The View on election night: "That night -- I grieved in a way that I have not since my mother died. The pain was not at all about losing a race. I knew what it was going to mean for the country ... all I could say over and over was 'my God, my God, my God.' It was very difficult."

A child born is not Pro life. Its a child fed, a child housed, a child schooled, a child clothed, a child safe, a child cared for, nurtured & loved.

Not just Unpopular! He's also the Most Unworthy-Unqualified-Unethical-Uneducated-Unprepared-Undemocratic-Unfortunate-Unhinged-Unjust-Unread-Unappealing-Unconscionable-Untrustworthy-Unscrupulous-Unstable-Unbearable-Unlikable-Unreliable-Unsound & Unctuous President in Modern American History. 🇺🇸 🙄

There is no world in which it is normal for the president to publicly call upon his attorney general to hurry up and prosecute his political foes. It’s like the Watergate tapes but posted on social media. Let’s get a grip on what’s happening here.

“Well, if we had just voted for Ka…” Baby, the democrats allowed suppression of free speech when they let police attack college students trying to stop a genocide they both let happen. There is no opposition party in the US. The road to fascism was paved by bipartisan fealty to billionaires.

If you do nothing else with the time you have right now, learn to live your life in such a way that fascism isn’t safe around you, but people are.

I feel like I need to remind you that it’s not democrat vs republican but wealthy ruling class vs everyone else. This is why no politician is coming to save you. They’re already rich and thus not financially incentivized to help you in any way. Fascism is profitable. Class consciousness, y’all.

Olly olly oxen free …..

We're at a point now where a Fox News host can just casually suggests killing homeless people with a lethal injection on air and no one bats an eye but a MSNBC contributor gets fired for calling Charlie Kirk "divisive".

Big sigh. Watch this. Can you see why the Yankees’ moment of silence, the lowered flags, the promise of the Presidential Medal of Freedom, feel like a gut punch to the very people he spent years targeting? No one wished death on this man, but what we’re seeing right now is too f*cking much.

For the people in the back, bigotry is not an opinion…

More of this.

I'm confused. Speaker of the House Mike Johnson said that Tr*mp was a friend of Epstein because he worked for the FBI. Then why didn't Tr*mp mention that earlier, in stead of telling everyone the Epstein files were a "Democrat hoax"?

🚨Governor Pritzker has no fucks. He is not playing games with the host in D.C. Chicago is not a piece on a board, it is a city - just like LA and DC. Rolling over is not an option.

The next days and months and years will demand from all of us great courage — and solidarity. Be prepared.

there is no question in my mind that rfk jr is the most dangerous person in this administration and that his eugenicist ideology threatens the lives of millions of people www.advocate.com/politics/dem...

Governor J. B. Pritzker is turning Illinois into a reproductive rights stronghold, and has also pursued national coalitions with other Democratic governors to resist Trump-led initiatives.

A posthumous and "unsparing" memoir by one of Jeffrey Epstein's most prominent accusers, Virginia Roberts Giuffre, will be published this fall. "Nobody's Girl: A Memoir of Surviving Abuse and Fighting for Justice" is scheduled for release Oct. 21.

Ready?

They’ve tried to erase us for centuries. Didn’t work then, won’t work now. Black history IS American history.

Let’s be clear: deporting Kilmar Abrego Garcia to Uganda makes no sense—it’s not his home country. Nothing about this process has been fair. ICE is targeting him with cruelty. This is the weaponization of government, not justice.

The same Trump administration that wants to abolish FEMA is decimating disaster response and openly ignoring lessons learned from Hurricane Katrina that get help to people in need after natural disasters. Republicans must join us in pushing for answers and accountability ASAP.

Reading an article titled "Why didn't Brazilian democracy die?" and a key part of the story is a Supreme Court that actually did its job

If a president wanted to become effectively a dictator, he’d likely: 1. Purge govt of non loyalists 2. Weaponize law against opponents 3. Use military to police opposition strongholds 4. Threaten media, schools, businesses w penalties to get them to heel 5. Change election rules in his favor.

Just another opportunity to post this

May this portion of the dissent by Ketanji Brown Jackson haunt John Roberts forever and be the final word on his tenure as Chief Justice.

Rep. Jeff Van Drew claims he’s spoken to “large numbers” of dead people who had mail ballots sent to them

It's easy to miss Jimmy Carter and the many attributes he brought, which today feel so absent.

Bankers have the same scruples as lawyers.

America has fallen.
