Correction - last night was Sunday!

I am looking forward to seeing all our new signs, made at our meeting last night, on Saturday! Great job everyone!

📣 Western MA!! L3Harris is on our backyard. #mapoli @in-slwm.bsky.social @johnmajercak.bsky.social @indivisible01027.bsky.social @ruwmi.bsky.social @maddow.bsky.social @indivisible01039.bsky.social @voicesrising.bsky.social

📣 Bay Staters! #mapoli ICE is RUSHING to deport Juan David! As a labor trafficking survivor, Juan David has a pending T Visa application. ICE is disregarding it. We cannot let ICE trample over federal protections. MORE INFO — 👉 lucemass.org/juandavid www.instagram.com/p/DVrfSPaD4p...

"You now live in a country where volunteers deliver babies at home, in secret, off the books, because mothers fear that if they go to the hospital, they will be abducted by masked, armed agents of the state while giving birth. This is not a hypothetical."

"We still have laws in on the books in this country, and it is actually still illegal to bribe government officials and to extort other people using and misusing the power of your public office and your public trust." Susan Glasser on the upcoming accountability agenda.

Hilary Clinton, who has never met Epstein, is being forced to testify to congress. Melania, on the other hand, isn't. MAKE IT MAKE SENSE.

Howard Lutnick was Epstein’s business partner and he lied about it. I wonder why?

Our To-Do List to STOP $$$ for ICE 👇 * share share share * robertreich.substack.com/p/the-bigges...

Rep. Melanie Stansbury: “The United States government is engaged in an active coverup of the largest sex trafficking scandal & influence peddling scandal in the history of the United States — and Donald Trump is right at the center of it”

Rep. Raskin: “I think that the DOJ has been in a cover-up mode for many months and has been trying to sweep the entire thing under the rug…There's no way you run a billion-dollar international child sex trafficking ring with just two people committing crimes.”

GOP Sen Lummis says she’s changed her mind after the new Epstein revelations today: “Initially my reaction to all this was, I don’t care. I don’t see what the big deal is. But now I see what the big deal is. The members of Congress who were pushing this were not wrong!”

HRC knows what all Twilight fans know. Vampires are scared of the sunlight.

"Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis slammed Pirro, while Kyle Rittenhouse called for her firing. Pirro recorded a hostage video–like apology on Tuesday, insisting to angry gun owners that she wasn’t talking about *them*."

The GOP’s new Voter Suppression bill, the so-called “SAVE Act,” would disenfranchise many of the 69 million women who took their husbands’ last names, as explained in my summary. It proposes *no penalties* for erroneous voter purges but potential *prison time* for erroneous registrations. WTF?! 1/

RFK: "It's the biggest infusion of federal dollars into rural healthcare in American history." Sen. Bernie Sanders: "You know why? Because you're cutting $150 billion for rural hospitals and putting $50 billion back. That's not an infusion — that's a loss of $100 billion."

“There is no Constitutional Crisis" is exactly what someone would say if they created a Constitutional crisis.

BREAKING: The U.S. added just 22,000 jobs in August, down from the expected 75,000

BRUTAL JOBS REPORT: Just 22,000 jobs added in August. Unemployment rises to 4.3%. Broader jobless rate jumps to 8.1%. Slowest 4-month growth since 2020. Plus, downward revisions for June and July of -21,000. Yikes.

Does the clownishness and absurdity of dictators actually go hand in with their dangerousness, and make it easier? @billkristolbulwark.bsky.social joins @timmiller.bsky.social on The Bulwark Podcast:

Rep. Veronica Escobar: "We need more people marching in the streets."

I want everyone to know that there is a protest Saturday in Westfield at the usual place on the green, at 11 AM. It is in Support of the Texas Democrats. We should get out there with as many people as we can. We cannot let Trump think he can read the system and we won’t protest!

It makes sense once you realize that every accusation is a confession.

In Alabama, another horrible ICE detention story— pulled over for going 1 mile over the speed limit and then put into detention, a woman who earned a masters degree and has become a beloved community advocate. Not a criminal. Someone who contributes to America. www.al.com/news/2025/08...

This is what you call great non-compliance! 💪 I call it **whack at a pillar** [see One Million Rising trainings at nokings.org/rise]

A legal permanent resident researching cures for Lyme disease has been detained by immigration officials for over a week. He has reportedly been denied access to an attorney and his family has not been given a reason for his detention. We cannot become immune to this cruelty.

NEW: Maine Secretary of State Shenna Bellows (D) told Trump's DOJ to “go jump in the Gulf of Maine” to “cool down” in a defiant response to the wide-ranging request from the Justice Department for the state’s sensitive voter information and voting systems data.

The 9th Circuit upheld a nationwide block on Trump’s birthright-citizenship order, ruling it violates the constitution. The decision marks the first time an appeals court weighed in on the order, moving it closer to a potential Supreme Court review.

Bill “Little Trump” Pulte has emerged as an unexpected attack dog for Trump, going after political foes like Democrats Letitia James and Adam Schiff. While they haven’t been charged, Trump allies like Pulte see the “name and shame” approach as a win.
