Hope people are realizing that rigging the 2026 and 2028 elections have always been the plan.

📌Trump is an America-attacking convicted felon, who is covering for pedophiles — one of whom might be himself. Just seems like this isn’t mentioned enough.

Just a thought: How about we stop shaming the poor for buying things that may not be essential, and start shaming the rich for making a profit off things that are essential?

The grotesque metaphor of Trump tearing apart the figurative seat of American democracy ... marvelous piece open.substack.com/pub/contrari...

Today, the White House Press Secretary told the country that this ridiculous damn ballroom is “the president’s main priority”…not reopening the government, not lowering the cost of groceries, not lowering the cost of housing, not lowering the cost of healthcare….building a ballroom

Inside the Hermitage, the winter palace where Tsar Nicholas II and his family lived before they were executed—in a country where Russians were starving.

📌Five years ago today after proudly voting for Joe Biden, and what I thought would be the beginning of the end of the madness, and the beginning of something better. Except Republicans don’t want better. They want carnage and hate. Three months later, we were attacked. I hate them. HATE THEM

15 years ago the Supreme Court decided corporations are people under the First Amendment. Today, sold-out politicians block progress on all fronts to appease their corporate donors. Citizens United is among the worst decisions in history. It corrupts our system every day.

We waited 20 years for John Bolton to be punished for telling lies about Iraq. Instead, he gets punished for telling the truth about Trump.

Thanks to Trump’s tariffs on China, U.S. soybean farmers have lost their biggest customer and are grappling with higher prices for farming equipment. Now, Trump has said he will bail out farmers — supposedly with the tariff revenue that caused the crisis to begin with. Hello?

📌I have HAD it with these damn farmers. They proudly voted for a racist, con artist, who is now screwing them. They will do it again after he gives them welfare checks they claim to hate so much. Biden and Democrats actually supported them, and now WE are paying for THEIR ignorance and racism.

“No one man can terrorize a whole nation, unless we are all his accomplices.” -Edward R. Murrow

Everything Trump is doing now is a preamble for his regime's real goal: to invoke the Insurrection Act. I don’t want to unduly alarm you, but you need to be aware of this imminent danger. It’s unfolding very rapidly. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/trumps-plan

“Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.” Diary of Anne Frank January 13, 1943

📌On this date in 2018, Jamal Khashoggi, a Saudi journalist and a Washington Post columnist, was brutally murdered by the Saudi government. 📌Trump did nothing. His grotesque family continues to receive BILLIONS in payoffs from that Saudi govt. 📌RIP, Jamal. Choke on your money, Donny. #freepress

While Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth are puffing themselves up in front of the U.S. military leaders at Quantico, I would like to remind everyone of an important historical detail: “I was only following orders” was rejected as a defense at the Nuremberg Trials.

Jessica: The guy who drove up to the Mormon church… was a Trump supporter. He had a Trump-Vance flag in his backyard… When the shoe is on the other foot and you can't demonize the left for this one, they say nothing.

It’s no use soft-pedaling the extent of the problem, ignoring the suffering inflicted on ordinary Americans, or minimizing the Herculean work that will be needed to repair our system.

People seem to be forgetting that DOJ doesn’t just “get” an indictment. They have to convince a grand jury to vote to return one, something this administration has struggled with recently.

I know antifa isn't a real organization because I don't get 40 texts a week from them asking for donations.

Remember: The GOP’s nonsensical culture wars are meant to distract you from corporate corruption and plunder. [Cartoon by Jace Avery]

15 years ago the Supreme Court decided corporations are people under the First Amendment. Today, sold-out politicians block progress on all fronts to appease their corporate donors. Citizens United is among the worst decisions in history. It corrupts our system every day.

Dear American citizens, whatever you wish more German citizens would have done in 1933, do that now.

Trump/Vance/Stephen Miller are busy spreading blatant lies and glossing over violence committed by the far-right. They're establishing a justification to unleash the government against anyone who opposes MAGA. All of this must be understood against the backdrop of Trump’s declining popularity.

Y’all are cutting HBCU funding, dismantling civil rights offices, slashing Medicaid and SNAP, over-policing Black communities—yet want us to believe you’re helping poor Black people?

Allow me to address the elephant in the room: If Charlie Kirk wasn’t a right-wing extremist, right-wing extremist groups wouldn’t be marching to honor him.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion, after getting $1.2 trillion richer over the past year alone. Meanwhile, the rest of the country is getting squeezed by tariffs and high prices for groceries, utilities, and health care. The system is broken.

Let’s get this straight, once and for all: Homophobia is not an opinion. Transphobia is not an opinion. Xenophobia is not an opinion. Misogyny is not an opinion. Racism is not an opinion. It’s hatred. — Are we all clear on this?

📌So the NFL ran the advocate for equal rights out of the league on the left, while today celebrating the hideous racist on the right. This country is flat busted.

👇🏼

📌Don’t kid yourself: Brian Kilmeade said out loud what every Republican thinks when he called for the killing of the homeless.

A fact.

Wow.

📌"Hillary wants to abolish the Second Amendment. By the way, and if she gets to pick her judges, nothing you can do, folks. But the Second Amendment people, maybe there is, I don't know." -Donald Trump suggesting in August 2016 supporters exercise their gun rights to assassinate Hillary Clinton

Charlie Kirk called me a ‘lunatic’ and a ‘prostitute’ and demanded I be deported. Nothing, *nothing*, justifies killing him, or robbing his kids of their dad. We don’t know the identity or motive of the shooter but murder can *never* be the response to political disagreements.

On this Labor Day, let us remember that it wasn’t the CEOs and billionaires who saved us during COVID-19. It was the janitors, nurses, cleaning crews, grocery and food workers with their hard, often invisible labor.

Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein could not have sold women and girls for sex without wealthy men buying women and girls for sex. I feel like more people should mention that.

“You cannot negotiate with people who say what’s mine is mine and what’s yours is negotiable.” President John F. Kennedy

Everyone knew about Jeffrey Epstein. Everyone knew about Diddy, R. Kelly, Bill Cosby, Harvey Weinstein, and the Catholic priests. Everyone knew about Donald Trump. I’m so tired of people protecting rich perverts, keeping their dark secrets for decades. So damn tired.

Trump's Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick just relaxed export restrictions on AI chip manufacturers AMD and Nvidia. Lutnick's family business empire holds a combined $1.1B stake in both companies. "Conflict of interest" is an understatement.

🇺🇸 I got into that historic day, and the campaign that followed against Jeffrey Epstein's orange boyfriend here.

I like when dead rapists destroy still-living ones.

If releasing the Epstein list would end your presidency, then your presidency needs to end.

House Republicans just voted to block the release of the Epstein files. They're not acting like the "preeminent" branch of the government seeking justice, but like a petite lapdog asking for treats at the White House.

Crockett: It seems like blue states are constantly putting red states on life support yet we got these little red states that ain’t contributing nothing.

The Trump regime is about to burn 500 tons of USAID emergency food. Why? Because it expired after its shipment was delayed. 1.5 million children could have eaten for a week. Now, taxpayers will spend $130K for it to be destroyed. This isn’t just inefficient – it’s cruel.

The first time Charlie Chaplin used his voice in a film, he wielded it to forcefully condemn the rising forces of fascism around the globe. Will we listen to his words today?
