Congratulations to CNNs @danabash.bsky.social for truth-to-power journalism. Presenting FACTS to liars and dishonest ppl is always contentious. LIARS don't like being caught and having their lies challenged. Good interviews.

@democrats.senate.gov @wyden.senate.gov @schiff.senate.gov @whitehouse.senate.gov ... Blanche performed a slight-of-hand maneuver with Sen Tillis and Cornyn to obtain their vote. His 'agreement' was NOT agreed to by all PARTIES (e.g. Trump) as required by the questionable "settlement".
CATO argues Bill Pulte could not legally serve after Jay Clayton was confirmed, so everything Pulte did in the last week (like firing a bunch of people) can be challenged. www.cato.org/blog/william...
William Pulte Served Illegally as Acting Director of National Intelligence for Nearly a Week
William Pulte purported to act as the director of national intelligence for nearly a week after Jay Clayton was confirmed as his successor. That violates the plain text of the Vacancies Act.

FYI: Blanche rescinded the ORDER establishing the slush fund, not the underlying “settlement.” The settlement says any changes must be agreed to by ALL parties, not just Todd. This “rescission” isn’t worth the paper it’s printed on.
Every court victory matters, but some are sweeter than others. Congrats to the Elias Law Group team and our client Senate Majority PAC for this well earned victory for free speech and the 1st Amendment.
This is it. Will they outnumber us or will we outnumber them? Teach your children well.
Trump must be triggered by the size of the Federal budget this go-round. He thinks of suing in $Billions frequently. He sues, steals from taxpayers, uses insider trading, files illegal lawsuits against the gov he runs, harasses "enemies" w lawsuits ... www.citizensforethics.org/reports-inve...

Dr. Anthony Fauci smartly invoked the 5th Amendment against a GOP-led campaign to try to “catch” him in a lie. I explain how his preemptive pardon factored into the legal strategy to invoke the 5th and why the GOP should direct their attention on the right target: Trump. youtu.be/jzQTBlc0ci8?...

Businesses like H&M, Zara, Dior, Chanel, and Adidas were known to burn or send unsold new clothing to landfills in the EU. This practice is now prohibited under new regulations, effective July 19, 2026. @housedemocrats.bsky.social what is the practice in US? This EU common sense law makes sense.
"Starting July 19, 2026, the European Union officially banned large fashion companies from destroying unsold clothes, shoes, and accessories. Instead of sending perfectly good products to landfills or burning them, companies must now donate, recycle, or repurpose them." via No one Cares
That sad thing is, business has to be forced to make their unwanted NEW products, available to those in need. This reminds me of DOGE leaving food and meds on docks to ROT, rather than distribute to those in need. How many of the "large fashion companies" are American? Where's the humanity?

When the president is so dumb the infectious disease doctor touches his own face.
Wow! There's no label for the location of this billboard, but I assume it's somewhere in Iran. Trump should clearly understand the message - 'bless his heart'. It's all he thinks about.
@housedemocrats.bsky.social ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS. Let's see what you DO this time! DEMS need to PROVE you can do more than cry-in-your-beer! There are always the same few who actively INVESTIGATE. Where are the REST? We need more than INVESTIGATION. STOP THE MAGA MASSACRE of government.
On July 30, 1965, President Lyndon B. Johnson signed Medicare and Medicaid into law, expanding access to healthcare for millions of Americans. These programs are lifelines for our communities, and House Democrats are fighting to protect them.
The Trump regime made the largest healthcare cuts in history, slashing more than $1 trillion from Medicaid, Medicare, and the ACA. At the same time they gave away $1 trillion in tax cuts for the richest one percent.
On this date in 1965, President Lyndon B. Johnson signed amendments to the Social Securities Act (1935) that established Medicare and Medicaid.
Thank you Dr Fauci for a Lifetime of Service.🇺🇸 God bless you🕊🙏🏼

I'm old enough to remember when polio put my friends into iron lungs. We dutifully lined up at school to get vaccinated. We eradicated the disease. We protected the common good and saved lives. What RFK Jr. is doing to public health in America is a disgrace.
