Weird how that didn’t make the cut.

Senator Joni “We’re All Going to Die Someday” Ernst is NOT running for reelection. Her vote to pass Trump’s Big Ugly Bill stole health care from millions and will needlessly kill 51,000 people a year. Hold each and every one of them accountable!

"Stay tuned for more details" -- Epstein survivor announces that survivors are creating their own list of Epstein-related abusers

Release of ‘missing minute’ of Epstein video contradicts Bondi claim cameras stopped recording

TOMORROW: Join Minnesota AG Keith Ellison, a coalition of partner organizations, and brave officials from across the country to learn how state and local leaders can fight Trump’s takeover and defend the rule of law. RSVP now to discuss unmasking ICE, redistricting, and more:

Russia appears to be behind the massive hack of our federal court files. The hack is broad and includes national security cases. I’m sure Trump will jump right on this: www.nytimes.com/2025/08/12/u...

@jamestalarico.bsky.social: "They've talked about these fines, they've talked about trying to expel us from office... We're not too concerned about the personal or political costs. This is a lot bigger than us. This is about whether or not we will have free and fair elections in 2026."

Republicans fled DC early to avoid voting on releasing the Epstein files, but we’re keeping the pressure up during August recess. Our toolkit includes call scripts, pressure tactics, and social media tools to demand a vote as soon as Congress returns. 👇

When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.

very human/very disturbing. a painfully real and in its way beautiful (abt the victim's work as a caregiver) description of a life horribly disrupted by getting caught in the nihilism maw of the Miller/Trump destruction machine.

With ICE on the brink of receiving a massive increase in its budget, I delineated some of the things it has been doing with the money it already has. Gift link: wapo.st/4lv53Wh

Final vote. 50-50. VP breaks the tie. One single GOP Senator could have stopped this abomination. Saved millions of parents from watching their child go hungry. Saved the lives destroyed when Medicaid disappears. They will all live forever with the horror of this bill.

The best way to reduce the cost of Medicaid is to name and shame big employers that pay their full time employees so little, they qualify for Medicaid

People in wheelchairs are getting arrested right now in the Russell Senate Office Building in DC. They showed up to tell Congress not to cut their Medicaid, because they cant afford health care without it. If you look closely you can see the zip ties on their hands. #WeWontGetOverLosingMedicaid

what federal agents did to a father of three Marines while he was cutting grass in Orange County on Sunday has happened in some form daily — and deliberately — all over Los Angeles for 18 days.

Can you imagine living in a “Democracy” where armed masked men are kidnapping people off the streets every single day?

Peace be upon us.

Like I've said before, if you have any doubts about climate change, just go to a super-boring insurance conference and listen to the super-boring panels where they dryly talk about the growing threat of disasters so catastrophic and unpredictable in scope they simply cannot be insured at any price.

When your MAGA uncle claims that climate change is some hippie fantasy, it helps to point out that the massive corporations employing truckloads of risk analysts are all placing multi-billion dollar bets of their own money that it’s real.

WE HAVE QUESTIONS… This is a kidnapping. No uniform, no badge, civilian car. Who are they? ICE? Sanctioned bounty hunters? Either way, they’re grabbing people without warrants. How often is this happening, and why aren’t more people talking about it? Congress?

🚨🚨🚨

I didn’t believe this, but looked for myself. Two headlines about the parade … and zero about two percent of all Americans taking to the streets yesterday to protest Trump.

The most consequential Speaker in state history.

How many reporters are currently working on tell-all exposés about their own organization, detailing all the acts of cowardice of their editors and publishers? I won’t ever buy your book about Sleepy Joe Biden, but I’d absolutely devour a book about the internal collapse of the NYT or CNN.

It should not be lost on anyone that Minnesota Rep Melissa Hortman, who was shot to death in her home last night by an assassin, was a gun safety advocate who worked tirelessly to protect her constituents from gun violence.

The EPA recently withdrew a legal complaint filed last year against the GEO Group, a major Trump donor that has more than $1 billion in contracts with the administration to run private prisons and ICE facilities. By @fastlerner.bsky.social‬ and @lisalsong.bsky.social‬

You said you were going after dangerous criminals ? Now you are taking hard working people off the streets, separating parents from kids, taking people from immigration court who are following the rules, & putting the military on our streets…this isn’t America. DON’T TELL US EVERYTHING IS FINE

Families are being ripped apart and communities are being terrorized across America. We're coming together to lift up the stories of our neighbors, organize, and stop the horror. JOIN US TONIGHT 👇

The money being spent on Trump’s ego parade could feed every single homeless veteran in America for more than four months.

Help us turn next Saturday into the biggest, loudest, and most widespread mass protests yet. Everything we need to make history (recruitment efforts, signage, security, and logistics like speakers and portapotties) is being funded by grassroots donors like you. Please pitch in if you can.

Hands Off! was the biggest day of civic protest in years. We want next Saturday to be even bigger — with more people in more places driving even more defiance of Trump’s fascist agenda on No Kings Day.

Who gets custody of JD in the divorce?

Trump’s extremist agenda is falling apart and people are furious about his plan to gut Medicaid and SNAP just to fund another billionaire tax giveaway. So Trump is reaching for the same cruel playbook he used in 2017: Stoking fear and scapegoating immigrants with a new Muslim Ban.

must be incredibly frustrating and disheartening to have federal funding that was promised to you for important work suddenly and arbitrarily ripped away

@kerileighmerritt.bsky.social once argued for the historical value of coroners' reports by explaining that "how people die tells you a lot about society." That really stuck with me. The 1830s Boston Coroners Inquests offer a sad but deeply revealing glimpse into the lives of poor African Americans 🗃️

NEW: Judge Boasberg has ruled that the Trump administration must quickly propose a way to give the 140 men sent to El Salvador in March — some on evidence he says was "flimsy, even frivolous" — proper due process. w/ @joshgerstein www.politico.com/news/2025/06...

1/🧵 It’s not dysfunction. It’s design. The GOP uses a ruthless disinformation playbook to confuse, divide, and exhaust the public. They don’t want you informed—they want you disoriented. Here’s how their machine works—and how we expose it. #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 #USDemocracy #ProudBlue

This is, simply put, a must-read

The House passed the Maga Murder Budget. Please don't call it anything else. #MagaMurderBudget. It needs to trend. It needs to die. Pass it on.

Statement from the NJAG Matt Platkin

Breaking: Its the middle of the night at the US Capitol and a crowd of very angry people are standing in the rain, because they want to know why Republicans are voting to cut their Medicaid benefits right now. Dem Minority Whip Katherine Clark is currently outside talking to them.

Remember when Republicans said Trump’s Tax Scam wouldn’t touch Medicare? They were lying.

Baldwin to RFK Jr: "Is funding for Alzheimer's research centers DEI? Because you're holding up $65m for 14 of those centers in 9 states, including UW Madison. Is funding for cancer centers DEI? Because you're holding up $47m in cancer center support grants at 9 cancer centers in 8 states."

Whoa! New polling shows that a majority of voters in EVERY SINGLE CONGRESSIONAL DISTRICT oppose cuts to Medicaid. Members of Congress should take note. ☎️ Flood the Capitol switchboard to voice your opposition to the bill from hell. 202-224-3121. Defend Medicaid! Defeat Cancer!

And now, she is going. Not to another wing of the hospital. Not to a specialist. Not to the care she should have had immediately. She is driving across state lines like a fugitive, like the act of not dying requires secrecy and strategy.
