The great sleeping giant of America always remains asleep until some venality becomes so noxious, some action so disrespectful of the common good, some brutality so noisy, that he has no choice but to awaken. I believe that sleeping giant is awake – and turning the tide on Trump.

Attempting to rig elections on his behalf. Turning the military on citizens. Toying with the idea of declaring martial law. Attacking political enemies and punishing those who speak out against his regime. If this were happening in another country, what would you call it?

800 detainees are missing after being held in Alligator Alcatraz in July, showing no record of their location in ICE’s database. Other detainees have been mistakenly deported or sent to detention centers thousands of miles away. The cruelty is the point.

A bit of color to start your week... This beauty is a Variegated Fritillary. We have these all over our property, most likely because we have their host plant, the Purple Passion vine, growing here! #butterfly #nature #photography #colors

Weird that the FCC Chair had no issue with Kilmeade wanting to euthanize homeless people.

This is so messed up.

We have these gorgeous Common Buckeye butterflies all over our property in Virginia's Middle Peninsula- such a treat to see them! #butterfly #nature #photography

Silly Jimmy Kimmel. He should have just called for all homeless people to be killed and he’d still have a job.

Release the Epstein files!!!

All the other sunflowers had faded, and I thought the season was over. And then—this one bloomed. 🌻 It feels like a reminder that even when things seem finished or too late, there’s always room for one more burst of light, one more chance to grow, one more reason to keep looking forward.

Next time someone on the right claims all the political violence in this country is coming from the left, not the right, do please show them this. You're welcome

I bet you didn’t know this!!

In summary: The hateful Charlie Kirk was shot by the acolyte of a more hateful version of Charlie Kirk. It wasn’t any of the imaginary bogeymen they were hoping for. Just a case of them slowly drowning in their own hate.

Everyone should be held to the same standards.

Now that Kirk's killer seems to be caught, maybe the news could spare a moment's attention for the right wing, from the commentariat up to the GOP and president, whose immediate reaction was not mourning, but to seize the opportunity to try to incite violence against groups they hate

MAGA 3 days ago: Chicago is about to find out the meaning of WAR MAGA today: the left needs to stop condoning violence

This happened in CO today. Three teens were critically wounded and they’re fighting for their lives. The violence against our kids is still happening. I’m elevating this story as the media and the current regime only seem to want to focus on that other person. This is the real story right here

Unbelievable.

News just broke that the Venezuelan boat that Trump struck was not, in fact, headed to the U.S. with drugs. But this story is disturbing for other reasons, and you need to know why. It's another sign of Trump's growing lawlessness. And it's bad counter-narcotics strategy.

WHAT THE ACTUAL F*CK

Just spoke with my CDC sources. They said RFK Jr. has ordered officials to hide tuberculosis cases, even as three active TB cases were just reported in Maine. He’s also suppressing bird flu reports. Pandemics don’t start with viruses they start with secrecy. RFK Jr. must resign now!

🚨BREAKING: A federal judge ruled Tuesday that President Donald Trump’s use of National Guard troops and Marines in Los Angeles earlier this year violated a federal law that prohibits using the military as a domestic police force. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

We have the most incredible swallowtail butterflies in our meadow! It's such a joy to photograph these gorgeous creatures. #nature #photography #butterfly

He’s providing them with valuable mulching experience though.

"The lunatics are running the asylum."

Mike Johnson makes clear that when Congress returns next week he's going to work tirelessly to cover up the Epstein files

Pay attention. Your family’s safety is on the line.

This interview, which is also available to listen to as a podcast, provides a useful overview of some of the dangerous trends we’ve been seeing in recent months regarding federalization and militarization of state and local police functions.

Trump’s cabinet meetings are actually a support group for people who’ve lost their dignity.

The people who say prayer will keep children safe always seem to vanish when a mass shooting happens in a religious school.

Attempting to rig elections on his behalf. Turning the military on citizens. Toying with the idea of declaring martial law. Attacking political enemies and punishing those who speak out against his regime. If this were happening in another country, what would you call it?

Andrew McCabe casts doubt on Ghislaine Maxwell’s interview with DOJ: “It‘s so suspicious. When you listen to the tapes, you get the sense that Ghislaine Maxwell went into that room knowing what information she had to deliver…to get some sort of benefit that she is pursuing from the administration.”

From the not so distant past...

Truth Bomb

Trump is telling us his plan for 2026. Those of us who care about free and fair elections must take him seriously and literally. We cannot simply bring guns to a gun fight. We need to bring missiles.

In other words: They lied.

Epstein.

The first thing I saw when I woke up this morning- my sweet Earl (named for my favorite tea!). Happy #Caturday!
