If you know a young woman who is apathetic about voting make sure they know that Blanche got caught saying they intend to apply Dobbs nationwide. From inception no exceptions. All methods of abortion illegal. #Blues #WomensRights #Abortion
Love this middle finger to the Missouri GOP 🖕🖕🖕
🚨BREAKING: Missouri voters defeated a GOP bid to limit their ability to amend the state constitution. The measure was the GOP's attempt to diminish the power of voters who’ve used citizen initiatives to expand Medicaid and protect abortion access.
I honestly don’t know how anyone can be in the room when he says this kind of shit and not say ANYTHING. That’s not how you talk to people! Hit him with a rolled up newspaper or SOMETHING.
Trump says Jeanine Pirro "choked" and then snaps at a reporter who asks if her job is safe: "Don't ever talk again"
This is quite something. He says ICE detention was more inhuman than Russian prison. www.nytimes.com/2026/08/01/w...
The U.S. Deported Him to Jail in Russia. Then He Escaped.
Facing a long prison sentence or a forced trip to the front line of a war he opposes, Artyom Vovchenko believed it was worth taking a risk.

So it appears that, unless humanity massively changes course basically immediately, humans will be the cause of their own extinction in the not too distant future. I’m wondering if there was anything 1945-1980 that people were sure would cause the world to end, outside of the Cold War/nukes?

Missing @darrigomelanie.bsky.social On Bluesky but still see her posts every once in a while.
When you start pointing to Trump as your ethical touchstone, you have lost.
Incredible nonsense from John Cornyn. True, the harm to Epstein’s victims can’t be remedied by a “no” vote. But why should Blanche’s corrupt cover-up of the Epstein files—in violation of a Congressional mandate(!)—be rewarded by “yes”? Can’t get any more craven than this.
Cornyn justifies his support for Blanche: "That's one of those things that can't be remedied by a 'no' vote"
RFK Jr. once blamed Trump for the COVID response. Now he blames everyone except Trump. That's what happens when loyalty matters more than truth. Meanwhile, America is experiencing its worst measles outbreak in 35 years. My latest: open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...

The birth of a new collection racket. Bet that monstrous idea came from the🎃👑 Once again he goes after the weak & vulnerable. What would happen to family members if/when they're tracked down? Trafficked to pay up? Organs harvested to pay up? There is no limit to his depravity, greed & evilness.
How are you gonna be on the Senate Judiciary Committee and move this MFer forward? THEY’RE ALL CLOWNS 🤡🤡🤡
Insane. Republicans have to go.
These men are astoundingly weak. Truly pathetic.
You could have voted no on Blanche. Idiot.
ANOTHER death in ICE custody, this time at the controversial Delaney Hall facility. This makes 54 deaths since Trump took office; 1 every 8 days in 2026. His mother says he was denied adequate medical care for chronic conditions, a common accusation ICE has strenuously denied.
Breaking: Another victim, Edwin Jovanny Lopez Cornejo, has died in ICE custody at Delaney Hall prison after being denied vital medication and family visits. Depriving sick detainees of care until they die is murder by neglect. We demand complete transparency and justice for Edwin! 🎥 Statuscoup

“I promise🤞 I won’t steal taxpayer money & give it to J6 Traitors. We good?” 🤡
Just the fact that media calls it a “Weaponization Fund” shows utter failure to meet the moment. It’s like when you call Trump’s budget a “Big Beautiful Bill.” They get you to launder regime propaganda by creating a title that is a false characterization, which gets published.
What will the media companies who are publishing stories that Blanche agreed to a “deal” with Cornyn & Tillis to kill the slush fund write when people start getting paid with our tax dollars & this whole thing is revealed as a sham? Since they aren’t writing how it’s a sham now.
Apple got a $2.2 billion tariff refund. Amazon got $600 million. Trump is sending the "refunds" to the companies, not working people. Every single cent of these refunds should go back to American consumers.
So magas are good with the trumps not having to pay taxes while they all do?
“.. Blanche posted a second statement saying that only Mr. Trump, two of his sons and the Trump Organization would be immune from audits ..” @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2026/08/03/u...
So Tillis and Cornyn thought the 1.8. Billion dollar slush fun was so bad, that they will be willing to confirm the guy who came up with it. Huh
