BREAKING: In a major win for voting rights, an Arizona Court tosses a GOP lawsuit that tried to make voting by mail even harder. With nearly 90% of Arizonans voting by mail — this ruling protects voters from mass ballot rejections based on minor signature mismatches.

This is Manchis. She's the dog of Alberto Mesías Zárate, a journalist in Peru. When her human was targeted this week by criminals who threw an explosive device at their home, she barked at the perpetrators and successfully extinguished the dynamite before it detonated. 14/10 good girl, Manchis

Every school in America has a version of active shooter drills. Teachers take extra workshops. Kids are taught combat level first aid. But did anyone think to teach a while you're praying shooter drill? STOP THE GUNS!

The phone number for the U.S. Capitol switchboard is (202) 224-3121.

Hey MSM, ask RFK Jr to define 'inflammation'. Ask him to define 'mitochondria'. Ask him how, specifically, that he can tell how children have 'mitochondrial challenges'. Ask him what, specifically, about children's faces and body movement indicates inflammation. He won't know. He's making shit up.

Reminder: Since being elected, Trump has moved quickly to undo progress made with gun safety policies.

Yeah, you should.

Curious what the reasoning for this could possibly be. My first thought it that it was a Putin request

Republicans are trying to force the Fulton County Board of Commissioners into installing two far-right activists – Julie Adams and Jason Frazier – on Georgia’s largest county’s elections board. atlanta.capitalbnews.org/fulton-commi...

The political appointment, first reported by Democracy Docket, shows how self-styled election investigators who have thrown themselves into election conspiracy theories since 2020 are now being celebrated by a presidential administration that indulges their false claims.

We stand with Gavin Newsom, JB Pritzker and every other American willing to stand up to fascism and take back our country.

Why of course, this is what good Christian Nationalists do for people in need.

I believe this was predicted but still disquieting. One would have to be naive to think such a covert operation is not already planned or underway in Canada, most likely centred in Alberta. Trump’s CIA serves Trump after all. www.cnn.com/2025/08/27/e...

Vaccines are safe and effective. RFK Jr. isn’t.

Sen Patty Murray (D-WA): “If there are any adults left in the White House, it’s well past time they face reality… We cannot let RFK Jr. burn what’s left of the CDC and our other critical health agencies to the ground—he must be fired.”

We’re going to go on a rant for a minute, and yes we’re bringing some history with us. Back in 1755, Benjamin Franklin wrote words that still echo today: “Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.”

Our President keeps insisting prices are going to drop by 1400%, 1000%, or some other number that’s mathematically impossible. That he can’t do simple math isn’t the problem, it’s that he’s lying to America while things are getting more expensive because of his bad choices.

I have seen multiple instances in which victims of crime who report the crime to the police. Those people are being deported. Victims of domestic violence. Victims of human trafficking.

NEWS: Japan's top trade negotiator Ryosei Akazawa CANCELS his visit to the United States this week. (Kyodo)

It’s outrageous that Sec. Kennedy is trying to fire the CDC Director — after only a few weeks on the job — for her commitment to public health & vaccines. The Sen. HELP Committee must hold a hearing with Kennedy & the CDC Director as soon as possible. Vaccines save lives. Period.

Something is wrong with a system where 76% of workers say they’re worried to make ends meet, while greedy corporate CEOs make 285x what the median worker does. Working people don’t have to accept this. A union contract is how we fight back.

I pray tonight for the priest who was saying Mass as the Minneapolis shooting unfolded in front of him. That had to be a horrible sight to see from the altar. I've prayed all day for the families affected. As a mother, grandmother, and former teacher, each school shooting takes another piece of me.

Wow

It won’t fit in screen shots but linking here the full letter of resignation posted by one of the departing CDC officials, Dr. Demetre Daskalakis, who ran the National Center for Immunization and Respiratory Diseases and led efforts to fight COVID, monkeypox, and bird flu x.com/dr_demetre/s...

Sen. Patty Murray (D-Wash.), top Dem on the Senate health committee, on this evening's chaos at CDC: “We cannot let RFK Jr. burn what’s left of the CDC and our other critical health agencies to the ground—he must be fired."

We will not survive, thanks to Gloria Gaynor.

The recently selected chair of a North Carolina county Board of Elections was charged for allegedly drugging ice cream from Dairy Queen with MDMA and Cocaine and giving them to his two grandchildren

ICE will never know peace in my town! Always the women standing up!! ✊

Psaki: I felt a mixture of anger—a lot of anger—and emotional exhaustion about this today, as I’m sure many of you have, because we have been here so many times. And yet again, like clockwork, half the politicians in our country have little more to offer than thoughts and prayers.

NEW: After reports surfaced that she had been fired, lawyers for CDC Director Susan Monarez say she "has neither resigned nor received notification from the White House that she has been fired, and as a person of integrity and devoted to science, she will not resign."

Meteorologists now face a Trump ‘loyalty test’ when applying to National Weather Service jobs. The essay questions — which have nothing to do with meteorology — are part of federal guidelines launched as part of the Trump administration’s efforts to recruit “patriotic Americans” to its workforce.

🚨 The CDC as we know it is being severely altered tonight. In addition to the CDC director being ousted, the Post is reporting that several senior leaders are leaving as well. Here are from two of the resignations:

Release the Epstein files. We don’t care about party. Hold them all accountable! But think about it: why is Trump trying to stop the Epstein files from coming out? He’s not doing it to protect Bill Clinton.

For Trump's ultra-wealthy donors, fascism is just good business. zeteo.com/p/ice-no-bid...

She was brought to the US as an 8yo, worked hard, studied, earned a scholarship, planned to become a nurse. ICE kidnapped her. Held her for 6 MONTHS in a detention facility with conditions so miserable that she finally agreed to voluntarily move to Honduras, which her family left at gunpoint.
