Republicans are (rhymes with) mirthless. youtu.be/nw3OeRqKP_8?... @bexardems.bsky.social

🚨NEW: For the first time in history, the single largest group of people arrested in the interior and sent to ICE detention is people with NO criminal record. As of yesterday's data release, 40%(!) of those arrested in the interior and detained by ICE had no prior conviction or pending charges.

6/ This isn’t the first time ProPublica has reported on ICE under Trump 2.0 acting in unprecedented ways. In July, my colleagues @mckenziefunk.com and @nicolefoy.bsky.social documented ~50 incidents of officers shattering car windows to make arrests. projects.propublica.org/trump-ice-sm...

Nothing unites the world like a Trump speech at the UN. They all agree to go get drinks afterward.

Show up,daily, everyone is needed in order to save our democracy, and to become the society WE CAN BE.

Wise words from Michelle H. Davis of @lonestarleft.com: “You want the national party to change? Stop doom-posting and start filling state chairs.” AMEN! Precinct (neighborhood) chairs are essential for distributing info. Contact your Democratic Party’s county office and offer to help. #ShrinkThePink

Wow. Not at all surprising, but wow. Blatant corruption is perfectly fine (encouraged, even) in this administration.

Cardinal Timothy Dolan failed to report direct admissions of rape by multiple priests, lobbied against extending the statute of limitations for sex abuse, and moved money off the church books to hide it from victims of sex abuse. In case you were wondering.

Of all the stupid things that this regime has done, this is right up near the top. Postdoctoral researchers come to the US on H-1B visas. This will further destroy the US science enterprise. Stupid stupid stupid.

Such good news! 💙

Lyin’ King! www.youtube.com/watch?v=u8lR... Thanks, @randyrainbow.bsky.social! 🦁

Good to see some countries know how to deal with seditionist leaders. abcnews.go.com/Internationa...

NEW: We got access to Jeffrey Epstein’s personal Yahoo inbox — more than 18,000 emails. It shows Epstein’s world in his own words: an unfiltered look at how his operation worked, who enabled it, and how Ghislaine Maxwell stayed at the center of it all.

House Dems should drop a ‘Charlie Kirk Gun Safety Act’ on the floor just to make Republicans go on record voting against it.

How much money is Donald Trump really making off the Presidency? David D. Kirkpatrick spent months tallying up how much the Trump family has pocketed off Trump’s time in the White House—golf course by golf course, crypto deal by crypto deal.

a weird yell took down Howard Dean, but a depraved book from one of the worst sex traffickers of teens that contains a disgusting handwritten note from the current president, who is also an adjudicated rapist, causes the GOP to unite to protect him the parties are not the same

We’re visiting San Antonio and after a full day of doing stuff I asked husb “what did we do this morning?” and he couldn’t remember either. Total blank. Y’all… we visited the Alamo. We didn’t remember the Alamo.

Incredible showing for democracy and against occupation today.

The only thing the @democrats.org are good at is selling my phone number to the highest bidder. I’m sick of the endless texts.

I’ll never get over January 6th not being the end of Trump. McConnell consciously letting him slip through congress’s fingers was the moment Trump could’ve been stopped…but instead here we are. I honestly don’t think anyone has hurt this country more than McConnell.

So much winning.

🚨🚨🚨Robert Garcia says all 212 Democrats signed the petition to release the FULL Epstein files… but only 4 Republicans have 🤔 They claim they want transparency - yet they’re protecting predators. Just 2 GOP votes away.

Watch @crockett.house.gov talk about the Epstein case like the kickass lawyer she is. youtube.com/watch?v=WOZy...

Just called and left a voicemail for my rep, Chip Roy (TX-21). Doubt it will do any good, but I hope the young female staff member whose voice was used to give directions asks the congressman to do the right thing and vote YES on House Resolution 581. #WomenUnited

Democratic hoax, my eye! More than 100 survivors showed up to dispute the 🍊🍕💩’s claim. (Less than 10% of the total number of survivors.) Release the list, Republicans! End the cover up now.

Super proud of mija, Aedan Richter, for launching her own website: aedanrichter.com Please share with anyone who needs custom art for stickers, t-shirts, mugs, Fiesta medals, murals, fabric, wallpaper, pet portraits and more! 🎨🖌️👩‍🎨

Check your credit card statements! I bought an airfare/hotel package through Southwest Airlines Vacations for RT airfare and four nights at the Courtyard Marriott San Francisco-Union Square. The Marriott charged me for the four nights! I called; they apologized and will refund me the $526.

Garcia’s Mexican Food does Mom & Pop proud. ¡Viva San Antonio!

“This is about the President of the United States and his complicit lackey, Stephen Miller, searching for ways to lay the groundwork to circumvent our democracy, militarize our cities, and end elections.” – Gov. J.B. Pritzker

Thousands of ICE agents are doing a lot more damage to our social fabric than millions of undocumented immigrants.

🚨BREAKING: One day after Texas passed its new map, my law firm, in partnership with @redistrictfdn.bsky.social, has filed a motion for a preliminary injunction seeking to block the use of the new congressional map for the 2026 election. www.democracydocket.com/cases/texas-...

Forget policy papers. This is psychological warfare…and Newsom is winning.🔥 www.jackhopkinsnow.com

MAGA on gerrymandering in Texas: *Cheering* MAGA on gerrymandering in California if Republicans gerrymander in Texas: *Screeching their heads off* 🤦‍♀️

www.youtube.com/watch?v=hbqi... Business leaders & Spurs Jesus scheduled press conference w/o other elected officials. Mayor confronts fear tactics/accusations of Spurs leaving, restated more information w/public engagement. Restates roots from Westside Jay graduate. Asks people to speak up.

It would be so on brand in a cosmic irony sort of way, that the TXGOP trying to squeeze more blood out of their exhausted stone, awaken the two sleeping blue state giants

NEW: “I’ve had enough…I’m refusing to back down.” Texas state Rep. Nicole Collier speaks to MSNBC from the Texas State Capitol. She is stuck there after the Texas GOP required police surveillance as condition for release. She is refusing to sign a waiver for the law enforcement escort.

“Gov. Gavin Newsom is now the resistance leader of the Democratic Party like it or not. This doesn’t mean he will be the next president or even win the nomination in 2028. It means he is taking control of the narrative and leading on messaging.” candidlytiff.substack.com/p/squabble-up

Taking photos and video of law enforcement officers performing their duties in public is our constitutional right. This includes police, FBI, National Guard troops, ICE agents, and other government officials.

30 U.S. cities with at least 100,000 residents that had the highest number of crimes against people, per 100,000, according to the latest FBI data report. Most are in states controlled by Republicans and/or in states that voted for Trump in 2024....

The San Antonio Humane Society's P.A.W.S. Youth Volunteer Program will be accepting applications (for 16-17 year olds, and the program follows a student-friendly schedule) starting August 11 - September 3, sahumane.org/paws. Don’t miss this chance!

Get some dinner tonight at your nearest Willie's Grill and Icehouse and support the San Antonio Feral Cat Coalition.

Taylor Swift should’ve called her new album “Release the Epstein Files”
