In the richest country in the world, too many Americans can't afford a second bag of groceries, can’t see a doctor when they get sick, or send their kids to schools that look like they did 30 years ago. Shouldn't be this hard.

Just weeks before Howard Lutnick’s testimony in the Oversight Committee on the Epstein investigation, he made a $5 million campaign donation—his first since becoming Secretary. And who did he make it to? A super PAC for House Republicans. Let’s let that sink in.

My prediction: Colbert Report will be rebooted and more savage than ever on a platform where he’s free to speak. Will hire The Late Show full crew and band.

Trump did not reach a settlement with the government. There was no case to settle. He has not created a slush fund. He has colluded with Todd Blanche to steal money from the US Treasury. This is not a “deal.” This is a crime for which Trump & Blanche must be prosecuted. It ia a crime.

The stories & photos from today’s voting rights marches in Alabama deserve to be seen by people who weren’t able to stand there in person. If this piece moves you, please share it widely & help make sure these voices aren’t lost in the noise of a crowded news cycle. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

Rep. @aoc.bsky.social : “Trump is using the entire government as a slush fund. One of the most Unpatriotic & un-American acts I’ve seen in my entire life.” Trump is robbing us blind, with Republicans as accomplices, as the press shrugs. 🤷🏼 (From @meidastouch.com @pabloreports.bsky.social )

Here's another ad for Dems to play on repeat for the mid terms:

@jamellebouie.net always gets it right! If Democrats don’t fight back with match energy instead of resting on decorum and saying “oh well”, they deserve to lose their seats. What was that? Someone said about a knife to a gun fight? youtu.be/xUECEsu-HAk?...

Throw the Rapepublicans down the well So my country can be free

Black people are giving it these Confederates raw and uncut. This is how it’s gonna be now. You wonder what we’re thinking? It’s this. I believe this is activist Gary Chambers again in Louisiana.

Can some of you talk to me about Tallarico? I’m very confused by him and I don’t live in Texas, but I think he’s bound for bigger things eventually. He talks so pretty. He has such a democratic socialist mouth, but he’s part of the Majority Democrats who I loath. My terrible rep is one of them.

They call them "data centers" because “mass-surveillance centers” would be harder to sell.

Look at this “ally of women” everyone. This is the result of his meltdown for being held accountable for performative ally ship while ranting his “accomplishments” at women in a post about the erosion of women’s reproductive rights. Take a bow, Mr. Manchild. You’ve fully exposed yourself. 👏👏👏👏😂😂😂

Wow, it’s wonderful to live under a merit based governmental bureaucracy. You can really feel the difference. #iranwar #gasprices

Today the king of England told our entire government to do their damn jobs on the floor of Congress. This is the wildest damn ride.

Men who will step up to defend another man, regardless of the circumstance are the problem. We will remain here, and we will continue to say “all men” until men hold one another accountable for what they do to women. Any transgression - large or small.

This photo should be on the front page of every single newspaper in America today.

Anyone else sick of being constantly enraged and disgusted?

So happy for Hungary!

Sending Hungarians strength and solidarity.

I don’t know how to properly describe how surreal it is to be successfully communicated to by Iran through propaganda LEGO videos

I think that Melania was getting ahead of something. I think she has been hacked or Iran has video that they are about to drop and she wants to get ahead of whatever they are going to put out. It’s probably real. What the hell is this timeline? Is this actually real life? #melania #flotus

Fuck establishment Democrats! Fuck @schumer.senate.gov Fuck @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social Fuck @repauchincloss.bsky.social There is no opposition. There is only those who wish for the status quo. We aren’t heading to the center. No matter how hard you try to drag us there. We don’t like you.

@repauchincloss.bsky.social you should listen to your buddy

After the White House complained about an unflattering photo of Karoline Leavitt, it was removed from AFP and Getty’s systems. This is the photo in question. Please do not repost it. 👇

Hey, @repauchincloss.bsky.social, has he proven himself yet? lol What have you done for #MAD4 lately? What have you done for Israel and your friends at Palantir? Thanks for a 15 minute notice of your zoom townhall.You only want to be heard, you don’t listen. Vote for @poulos.house!

As long as you don’t need gas, groceries, affordable healthcare, retirement savings or constitutional rights, things aren’t so bad.

Barron, report to the front lines immediately! Thank you for your attention to this matter. SAF, HBIC

Today’s best meme

When is it patriotic to speak out against an administration and when is it blasphemy? Were you patriots or anti-American when you spoke out against Biden? It’s really hard to follow the dots. It shouldn’t be that hard. Don’t tread on me or anyone else. Right? The MAGA twist!

BREAKING: As the Super Bowl gets ready to kick off in Las Vegas, someone just protected this video onto a building there! It’s the “P-do Bowl” featuring the men who are in the Epstein files the most. Hint: Donald Trump, Howard Lutnick and Steve Bannon are the all-stars of this game.

@massago.bsky.social Please follow her lead.

This a good idea. www.nydailynews.com/2026/02/03/a...

WRONG. I-205 administrative warrants are not issued by immigration judges. They’re signed by ICE officers. And EVEN IF THEY WERE issued by an immigration judge - they are executive branch employees, NOT judicial branch. JUDICIAL warrants are needed to enter a home without consent.

Mar a Pedo Rapepublicans Gang of pedos Reich wing

Going forward I will only use the following terms: Rapepublicans Gang of pedophiles Reich wing

It wasn’t a lack of training in either situation. It was cold blooded murder by seasoned border patrol officers. No excuses. DHS is a failed agency.

Democrats Condemn ICE For Murdering Without Proper Warrants https://theonion.com/democrats-condemn-ice-for-murdering-without-proper-warrants/

The database isn’t going to tell the story they think it’s going to tell.

If you work at DHS and know the identities of the CBP officers that murdered Alex Pretti, my Signal contact info is in my bio. I’ll keep you anonymous.

The right lives in a state of abject hypocrisy . Don’t dare tread on them, but allow them to make the rules for everyone else. I don’t think so.

This is dystopian… and not just because they’re dressed like a scene from the handmaids tale. These are mostly children. This is where Liam Ramos is being held. They’re screaming “let us out” and protesting the brutal conditions. These kids are braver than every ICE thug holding them hostages

So, you can carry firearm across state lines to a protest and if you shoot two people Kash Patel will advise you to sue the media and the Biden Administration. If you are in your home state and never draw your gun, and get shot by ICE Kash Patel says its "illegal" to carry a gun to a protest. 🙄

Not shot

Scott Bessent actually just told @jonathankarl.bsky.social that you can’t bring a legal gun to a protest and expect peace. We don’t even have to talk about J6 - just the big bad Covid mask meltdown. Also, he was just legally carrying & it wasn’t an organized protest. Keep moving the goalposts

@jonathankarl.bsky.social shamelessly pushing the absurd propaganda of “rugged individualism” while trying to paint @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social into an extreme left corner. Masterfully handled as always by the only true person of the people in office!

In December, Pastor Sergio Amezcua put out a sign-up for Minnesotans who were afraid to leave their homes and needed grocery deliveries. Since then, his church, Dios Habla Hoy, has delivered food to 17,000 families. From Mother Jones senior reporter @julialurie.bsky.social in Minneapolis.
