“Four hundred and twelve women were charged with crimes that would not have been crimes if they were not pregnant. That is exactly what happens when we give rights and status to embryos and fetuses.”

MADELEINE DEAN: The president is unhinged. He's unwell JOHNSON: A lot of folks on your side are too D: Oh my god, please. That performance in front of the generals? J: I didn't see it D: It's so dangerous! Our allies are looking elsewhere. Our enemies are laughing. You have a POTUS who's unwell.

Two months before Calvin Alexander’s parole hearing date, he was told he was no longer eligible. Why? An algorithm had deemed the nearly blind 70-year-old, who uses a wheelchair, a “moderate risk,” barring him from speaking to the parole board. (Published April w/ @veritenews.org)

can never forget that Fred Trump spent his later years totally gaga but surrounded by a gaggle of senility-denial-enablers who drove him to a make believe office where a make believe secretary had him sign make believe papers—which sounds cute til you see the sequel & the secretary is Stephen Miller

Just five media companies control 90% of our media market. But it’s not just media. In 75% of U.S. industries, fewer companies now control more of their markets than they did 20 years ago – leaving us vulnerable to higher prices and lower wages. Former FTC Chair Lina Khan explains.

Police lined up to shake the hand of a convicted felon

Five corporations control 90% of the US media market. Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today. Four giants control 80% of meat processing. A handful of companies control the pharmaceutical industry. The evidence of corporate concentration is everywhere.

Personally, I don't want farmers to get a single penny of my taxes for a bailout. I voted to protect your farm and you voted to destroy it. It is not my job to save you from your own stupidity. Pull yourself up by your bootstraps.

CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1965: 20-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1990: 75-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio today: 280-to-1 Trickle-down economics was always a sham. Nothing has ever trickled down.

Grooming means no black soldiers. They've been fighting the barbeculitis shaving exemption for a year, never mind hairstyles. And warrior ethos means no women. Will the 'top brass' push back? Deny the so-called autocrat in Chief? www.politico.com/news/2025/09...

Post a duo.

Gaddafi presented better at the UN then Trump the dictator. Gaddafi had more 'flare' and the female security force, chefs kiss. Trump is a world wide LOSER!!!

For everyone saying this is an impeachable offense and worse than Watergate: Of course it is. But that doesn’t matter in the slightest, because this GOP Congress has completely abdicated their duty and will never do anything to hold him accountable.

I find it deeply disconcerting the way they keep “teasing” the big info they have on autism. If there was a real scientific breakthrough, they wouldn’t wait. This isn’t about science, it’s about discriminating against neurodivergent people. It’s eugenics.

The media can fight back by doing 100% real bad stories about him 24/7! "Trump on Friday reiterated his claim that critical television coverage of him is “illegal”... “When 97 percent of the stories are bad about a person, it’s no longer free speech,” Trump told reporters in the Oval Office"

NEW: ProPublica and seven other news organizations — including @kutnews.bsky.social and @texastribune.org — are arguing that the records in Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton’s divorce case are of the public interest, especially in light of his bid for a U.S. Senate seat.

That's rich! Folks we are in a dictatorship. "Carr, in an interview...said that Mr. Kimmel’s remarks about the suspect were part of a “concerted effort to lie to the American people” and said his agency was “going to have remedies that we can look at.” www.nytimes.com/2025/09/17/b...

Our democracy is not self-executing. It depends on us all as citizens, regardless of our political affiliations, to stand up and fight for the core values that have made this country the envy of the world.

Yep. Less than 15 years!

The fact that Matthew Dowd lost his job for pointing out Charlie Kirk’s hate speech, while Brian Kilmeade openly suggests we should euthanize the homeless and there is zero outrage, shows exactly what is terribly wrong with today’s political mainstream media.

I am very tired of pointing at the big flashing eugenics sign. Take what we give you, in the way that we give you it -- or you are life unworthy of life. Lebensunwertes Leben, as the Nazis in Germany said.

It’s an obvious point but as an American you have never been so ill-served by your federal government, and GOP run states. Trump breaks things, that’s what Putin hired him for and this week was a perfect example of his strategy. We are foundering.

You cannot get more un-American than this. I refer to the State Department edict. Remember, this new policy curtailing free speech is brought to you by the very people who spent the last decade whining like children about their free speech being abridged and Democrats allegedly hating free speech.

NEW: A Missouri Senate committee voted Thursday to advance a GOP gerrymandering scheme — designed to rig the 2026 election. The new map would give the GOP an extra House seat at the expense of Black voters.

Bomb threats against the Maryland General Assembly. Bomb threats against the Michigan lieutenant governor and his family. Bomb threats against 5 HBCUs. Two arrests for violent assaults in Idaho. In 24 hours. All Democratic or left-leaning victims. All suspected MAGA perpetrators.

Pulling this one back out again by @sarahkendzior.bsky.social "But I need you to fight too, in the way that matters most, which is inside. Authoritarianism is not merely a matter of state control, it is something that eats away at who you are." thecorrespondent.com/5696/were-he...

No solidarity. Reporters let Trump talk this way to a woman reporter and then clamor to get their own question answered. He used to do it to April Ryan, Yamiche Alcindor and Abby Phillip. And that’s why he controls media. No solidarity.

📌 He's so disrespectful to women • Extremely telling 🐥

Jeffrey Epstein had doctors prescribe birth control and sedatives to his victims. They also screened his victims for STDs. He had dentists work on their teeth. I’d like to know who these people are and why they have been protected.

Hey everyone...LOOK OVER HERE! It's Lt. Col. Bone Spurs declaring war on an American city!!! Does his rough tough cream-puff cosplay make you forget about the EPSTEIN survivors, their lifetime of trauma & their courage to speak the truth in public? Yeah, me neither. #ReleaseTheEPSTEINFilesASAP

BREAKING: In Chicago, Illinois—U.S. citizens protesting ICE were dragged into vans by masked federal agents with no badges and no warrants. People screamed: “Who are you? Where are you taking them?” This is authoritarian control in real time.
