We are at war with lying, thieving, maniacs! This platform is for sharing news stories that legacy media regularly buries, and organizing. The only good fascist is an expired one! 🇨🇦
Damn they gave him the full Saddam diagram treatment. This will be a meme in Iran for generations to come. Trump will have to resign now.

Voters citing cost of living as a failure can contact representatives, attend town halls, join affordability advocacy groups, support primary challengers or alternative candidates, and vote in midterms, where congressional control and economic policy direction are decided in 2026 elections. 
TFG just said "I don't want to hear about AFFORDABILITY". Democratic messaging is usually too diluted by trying to please everyone. FUK THAT. Talk about AFFORDABILITY. There are over a dozen Billionaires in TFG's admin plus his donors. GET LOUD. The midterms ARE our last chance at this. #NoKings
Alert the press! Energy costs as well as grocery prices are at an all-time low! According to tRump who thinks he revived the ‘old-fashioned’ word, “groceries.” #ProudBlue #affordability #GTS #RegisterAndVote #MidTerms
CALL TO ACTIVISM@calltoactivism.bsky.social · yesterday🚨Holy shit. Donald Trump just ruined any chance for Republicans to win the midterms. “TRUMP: “I don't want to hear about affordability.” That quote should haunt Republicans all the way to Election Day. #RepublicansStarveUs

The Donald Trump Memorial Oil Slick and Environmental Disaster Zone. It'll be there until he's way out of office, he should put his name on it.
Al Jazeera English@aljazeera.com · 60m agoA potential environmental disaster is unfolding off Oman, where a grounded tanker is leaking sanctioned Russian crude oil in a protected marine area. The tanker carrying about 1 million barrels of oil has created an oil slick estimated at 2,000 square kilometres.

14 years ago, Ken Paxton was caught on camera stealing a $1,000 pen from a security screening. The pen was recovered. The man to whom it belonged decided to not press charges. Today, that man is endorsing James Talarico.
We’re going to defeat Trump’s election sabotage with preparation and people power. More than 30,000 Americans are organizing to build the nationwide infrastructure we need to respond to attacks on voting rights in every community. Let’s get to work: www.mobilize.us/indivisible/...

Do. He is saying sailors & their families are lying. 😡😡😡
"The family members of the troops I sent to war are lying to you when they say they're worried about them." Perfect.
I guarantee that they’re going to start punishing these sailors. I guarantee the ship has gone on lockdown for all communications. And every email will have to be vetted now. It’s gonna go dark there on the Lincoln. 
Democrats need to run ads with this clip in every congressional district with a sizable military community.

"Instead of asking, ‘What are we doing with the military with this war?’ Pete Hegseth is saying ‘hey, let's talk about testosterone,;" a soldier told Playboy. Well, here's what's happening to the military families and service members:

MeidasTouch@meidastouch.com · 7h ago🚨EXCLUSIVE: Military families and service members are now describing horrific conditions across MULTIPLE ships: human waste flooding bathrooms, virtually no food, water or soap, months without port calls, exhausted crews, and no end in sight. This crisis is far bigger than just the Lincoln.
Military families shouldn’t have to go public to ensure deployed service members have access to basic necessities and adequate mental health support. These reports about conditions aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln are real concerns and deserve immediate attention, not denial.
The reported conditions aboard the USS Lincoln are unacceptable. This is no way to treat our sailors. Hegseth, fix this immediately! www.cnn.com/2026/08/13/p...

The “Support Our Troops” crowd is awfully quiet about whatever the hell is happening on the USS Abraham Lincoln. Just a reminder in the context of no meat on the USS Abraham Lincoln, Hegseth blew $7 million on lobster tails. www.ms.now/news/uss-abr...
Curious if we're going to see any significant blowback in congressional districts with large military bases. The stories their families have been getting about the Hegseth Era can't be good.
