The stage is set. Trump gets Zelensky to threaten Russia with attacks on their homeland. Hegseth calls all key military leaders worldwide to a physical meeting place. Putin nukes Kiev with little worry for retaliation.

“.. Not only was the President not even trying to unite the country but he seemed to be blaming the large chunk of the nation that reviles his racially divisive policies and those promoted by Kirk as surely as if they had pulled the trigger.” @sbg1.bsky.social www.newyorker.com/news/letter-...

If Epstein Shocked You, The Names Behind His Money Will Floor You. I'm Telling You More About Them...Right Here substack.com/@thejackhopk...

Charlie Kirk’s assassination was horrific. That doesn’t change the fact that the vast majority of gun (and political) violence has been perpetuated by right wingers. You don’t get to change the narrative at will.

This was LITERALLY last month. I feel like I'm losing my mind seeing rightwing posts over on Twitter tonight. nytimes.com/2025/08/13/u...

If you care more about ONE grown man getting shot than HUNDREDS of children *in their own schools*, then you need to do some serious self reflection !!!

Decrying violence against political opponents rings a bit hollow when you pull Secret Service protection from your political opponents.

About the Epstein controversy. Trump's followers and Republican politicians long ago accepted his involvement. I'm just hoping his followers are using it to take him down because they're freaking out over everything being done but just can't admit they were duped.

Anyone like me think the real purpose of getting rid of immigrants is to diminish the Democrat base. Just getting rid of liberals.

Every damn word🔥 “How is it that you can explain that we still are running up the credit card and we have nothing to show for it except for the fact that we won’t have food on the table? And we won’t have healthcare.” - @repjasmine.bsky.social

tfw you've just stripped healthcare from 17 million Americans and ensured the closure of rural hospitals

Padilla: The President, VP, and their allies have continued to call all the protesters out there insurrectionists. Yes, this is the same man who provoked an actual insurrection at our capitol on January 6.

Raskin: You are not our king, and we are not your subjects. We will never be your subjects. All of us born here on this land are citizens and your executive order is nothing but bad graffiti on the Constitution, and we're going to wash it off today

Holy shit, New York! Here’s the full view. #NoKings #50501Movement

In a Gangster State, the dear leader wastes other people's money on military parades to broadcast his fake strength, attacks the legislative branch and destroys programs that benefit the people.

Kristi Noem thinks her lie about Sen. Padilla not identifying himself is a real own when, in fact, her supposed inability to recognize a US Senator--who is the chair of the Senate Judiciary Subcommittee on Immigration, Citizenship & Border Safety--makes her goons' thuggery even more disgraceful.

Newsom: "He's been a stone cold liar about what he said we talked about. He never discussed the National Guard. Period. Full stop. I would love to share with you what he actually talked about. It would send shivers up your spine."

NEWSOM: "It's a vulgar display. It's the kind of thing you see with Kim Jong Un, Putin, dictators that are weak… How weak do you have to be to commandeer the military for your birthday?“

*Everything.* Delay or obstruct everything you can. Boycott and walk out of everything you can't. Hijack every hearing and floor speech to play this video and demand Kristi Noem's impeachment.

I'm more concerned with Noem's words saying this regime will "Liberate" California from leaders they don't like. That should be a headline of its own!

Hey news corespondents, when reporting bad shit about the Trump regime, could you at least take that cherry everything is great look off your faces.

Newsom: "Arrest me. Let's just get it over with, tough guy. I don't give a damn ... Tom, arrest me. Let's go."

I agree 💯.

For years we've heard from the right about "welfare queens" and other so-called "freeloaders" pulling one over on the government. But actually, it's the wealthy who are the real freeloaders — pulling one over on us all by skirting their taxes. Where is the outrage over that?

praying for the day that the US working class starts doing this.

SUNDAY THOUGHTS:

"Taco" will haunt this administration for a long time

Felon 47 never stops. As long as he lives he'll keep lying, bullying and threatning.

Overheard: Apparently Zelenskyy had some cards, and he didn’t need a suit.

The payback for the GOP is when we tax the fu*k out of the wealthy and make them all live in our country.

He nailed it!

This part

Yes.

if it takes years, has to be consequences for all these people, and even more for those who gave the orders.

Not sure if democracy remains on the docket? My law firm is litigating 53 voting and election cases in 22 states. ⚖️🗳️ When we fight, we win.💪
