They did this to a white male veteran abcnews.go.com/US/army-vet-...

This week, Trump quietly released his National Security Strategy. It totally abandons the idea that we should stand up for freedom & human rights around the world. Instead, it lectures our European allies & embraces authoritarian leaders who enrich the Trump family & their billionaire friends.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion. The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion. Read that back. When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

What I don't have in experience, I make up for in integrity. And what Andrew Cuomo lacks in integrity, he could never make up for with experience.

WATCH — @aoc.bsky.social : “At some point we’ve gotta call these people’s B.S. for what it is. You can’t believe everything a con man is gonna tell you. We cannot live in perpetual fear of these clowns.” #TrumpShutdown

North Korea isn’t the only dictatorship where Dear Leader hangs giant banners of his own fat face on public buildings.

Must be nice to have no oligarchs on your supreme court.

He has violated his oath of office too many times to count - his very mode of operation and his conception of the presidency is a violation of his oath of office. He has undermined our elections. He has attacked our veterans. He has attacked minorities. He has been unjustly cruel toward immigrants,

KILMAR IN BALTIMORE: “Never lose hope. Promise me you’ll continue fight for freedom — not just for me, for everybody.” He was just taken into ICE custody.

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.

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.

President Trump is trying to seize control of our voting system and illegally override state election laws – this is an unconstitutional power grab. We cannot let this stand.

Looks the other way when ICE kidnaps people? DUMP THEM Paying workers pennies on the dollar? DUMP THEM Did they cancel DEI? DUMP THEM Selling brands complicit in genocide? DUMP THEM Do it loudly on social media. Let’s make our exes famous. 🫦 #BoycottHomeDepot #BoycottTarget #BoycottWalmart

If you think it’s problematic that Homeland Security sent ICE to intimidate Governor Newsom during this press conference Just wait until Trump applies the $30 billion allocated in the Big Ugly Bill to expand ICE And sends out these thugs to “maintain order” during the midterm elections

Tucked into the hillside of Binjiang Village, this ancient Chinese temple, Jinlong Temple in Luzhou City, Sichuan Province(四川瀘州金龍寺), boasts a massive golden dragon head sculpture: about 12 m long and nearly 10 m tall, gracing the staircase in front of the Hall of the Four Heavenly Kings.

WHAT THE HECK IS IN THOSE FILES?!

There's no way we should be hosting that murderous Russian dictator on American soil. #TraitorTrump

D.C. is not a dangerous city. Nor is L.A. The only danger is the Trump regime and its secret police force—ICE. They are committing crimes. They are terrorizing communities. They are tearing families apart. They are kidnapping people. They are the problem. And we the people are done with them.

Good morning, Bcuz he’s singlehandedly fucking up the economy and bcuz he’s in the Epstein files, Trump will throw a big piece of red meat against the wall today to distract you. Don’t fall for it. Violent crime is down in DC. Fuck the tyrant & his hard on for troops on our streets. Happy Monday.

🚨 D.C. — TRUMP IS PREPARING TO DEPLOY THE NATIONAL GUARD IN THE CITY 🚨 This is NOT about safety—it is an attack on the people living in D.C., especially Black and Brown communities. If you’re in D.C., there’s a rally tomorrow (8/11): 📍 815 16th St NW ⏰ 10 am Learn more at: bit.ly/free-dc-our-home

President Trump is imitating the Chinese Communist Party by extending political control ever deeper into the economy, Greg Ip writes.

I’ve been a Democrat for only two months, and I could sign off on all of this. Thanks @heathmayo.bsky.social.👇

BREAKING: Trump on Washington D.C: “The homeless have to move out IMMEDIATELY”. Better idea. Take the $200m that you want to spend on putting gold accents in a new pointless White House ballroom, and invest it in the community instead.

It's the systematic destruction of truth, all to please their cult leader. #DonTheCon

Just sayin’

Democrats offered an amendment to simply ensure that if taxpayers spend $1 billion retrofitting a Qatari jet, it doesn't transfer to Trump after his presidency for his personal use. Republicans voted NO and blocked the amendment. This is the most corrupt administration in history. Easily.

Today we were denied entry to an ICE facility in Baltimore where were exercising our oversight role as Members of Congress. The law is clear: ICE is REQUIRED to let us into these facilities. They just don't want the American people to see what's happening behind closed doors.

It's not political to think people shouldn't be starved to death.

Plus, AG Bondi recently fired Maurene Comey, who was one of the main prosecutors of Ghislane Maxwell.

Remember what Scotland thinks of Trump. Janey Godley got into some “good trouble” back in the day with a sign that said it all.

Let’s hear it for the good people of Scotland, who gave Trump a proper welcome on his golf trip today 👹👹👹 #50501Movement #FiftyFiftyOne #NoKings #PeoplesMovement #GoodTrouble #FuckTrump #Resist #FightFascism #RageAgainstTheRegime #Scotland

This is who the Trump administration is protecting: Billionaires, Big Oil, Big Tech… and now, known abusers. Demand the DOJ and White House publicly release the Epstein files now:

This is 100% a human rights violation. How tf are other countries standing by as the US does this? It’s shameful.

Republicans just blocked an amendment to require the release of the Epstein files. Wonder why.

Growing up after WWII, I always hoped concentration camps were history, not current events. But here we are, with thousands of migrants in squalid conditions, no due process, and $45B in new camps to come Coming to terms with an American nightmare. My new column www.inquirer.com/opinion/us-c...
