Your little oopsie "mistakes" had me worrying for a year of my life about my partner going to jail for up to a decade based on lies likely fed to you by the top of the federal government. Show everyone what you're covering up in these emails and texts. There's a reason you don't want them released.

Boutros acknowledges 'mistakes' in 'Broadview 6' case but says sanctions, special counsel aren't needed

Sailors fighting Trump’s war with Iran are washing in moldy showers and rationing meals in the ninth month of a mission that shows zero signs of ending.

Notice DOJ doesn't talk about its efforts to obtain state voter files anymore. They are 0-20 in those cases and today is the beginning of the quiet period -- states can no longer do systematic removals of names from the voter rolls. TLDR: We won!🥳

SHOUT OUT to Mike Luckovich: one of the all-time great political cartoonists. 🏆 With corporate media doing such a poor job in these most perilous of times, his work is more vital than ever! THANK YOU @mluckovich.bsky.social!!! 🙏

“To be called out by the most powerful person in the world…. and called a sick, violent vandal when all I had done was pick up a piece of trash was awful.” https://www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/2026/08/04/woman-recounts-reflecting-pool-arrest-says-she-was-humiliated/

Arrested at Reflecting Pool, woman details ‘heartbreaking’ toll case has taken

Sophie Dennison-Gibby was one of three defendants charged with a misdemeanor related to Reflecting Pool damage. The charges were all dropped.

Donald Trump, super popular right now in the state he ordered his goons to terrorize a few months back

Lindell: "I know a guy. I have an advantage over everyone up here. I can call up the president!"

Considering the millions that they "donate" to politicians, how are they really better off financially anyway? Why not build research facilities, upgrade rail service & such, like the scions of the past did. They are too short-sighted to see that doing good makes their name live on.

NEW: Trump is speaking today at a casino owned by a company battling lawsuits alleging its properties failed to stop the trafficking of a 9-year-old girl and other victims. The suits allege negligence and inadequate security. Our latest:

This is just rank Islamophobia and anti-Arab racism, based on the bigoted idea that there is something inherently scary about a president with the last name "El-Sayed." It is incumbent on all of us to call it out.

JD Vance: "We don't want the next administration, whoever -- god forbid you're gonna have President El-Sayed in three years ... "

No Republican can answer this question.

1/ 🧵 It costs 8 cents to make you skip an election. Not a typo. A peer reviewed PNAS study found the right ad, aimed at the right voter, erased 1 in 6 votes of color in swing counties. The billionaires who lost Michigan can buy a lot of 8 cent nudges. #DV1 #ProudBlue #Voices4Victory #USDemocracy

5/ Not small money, either. One conservative fund pulled in two anonymous gifts worth over $425 million in a single year. No law forced anyone to name who gave it. That same pipe can just as easily pay for suppression. news.yahoo.com/two-anonymou...

“So… you’ve been absent for 52 days, missed 47 roll call votes, and no one knows if you’re still alive?”

Trump owes more than $100 million in unpaid taxes, so this is just a giant free check he gave to himself with taxpayer dollars

Good morning everyone. Two changes to the Knoxville Nationals entry list took place overnight. * Zach Hampton has moved from Thursday night to Wednesday night. * Will Armitage was added to the entry list for Thursday night.

Jennifer Schulze (@newsjennifer.bsky.social ): If you want to know what David Ellison would do w/ CNN, look at CBS, "a raging dumpster fire with non-stop controversies ... meddling in editorial content to make it more Trump-friendly and historic declines as the audience runs away as fast as it can."

David Ellison can’t be trusted with CNN

We've already seen how Ellison has wrecked CBS. Don't fall for his PR push on CNN.

We can hardly wait. Our Congress passed a bill demanding that this happen, but they seem too corrupt/intimidated to follow up on it. We're hoping to replace most of them soon, but whatever you can do will be helpful & much appreciated. #ProudBlue

I had to code and pronounce a time of death on a respiratory therapist colleague. There's a memorial plaque for her outside the emergency department to this day. I wrote and re-wrote my will. I will never forgive these ghouls trying to rewrite history and deny our experience.

Bessent is fine with deficits to fight needless wars, it’s only deficits to pay for healthcare or education that bother him

Posted this over a year ago and nothing has changed. When voters are mad it’s usually best to understand why they are mad as opposed to telling them to just not be mad.

The fight going on in the Democratic Party right now is not between hard left, left and moderate. It’s between those who want to fight and those who want to cave. And Team Fight stretches across all ideological aspects of the Party. Misread this at your own peril.

Judge Wise finds that ICE coerced a 20-year-old Tongan man — admitted legally to the country three years ago — to sign a document accepting deportation, despite no criminal record or immigration proceedings against him. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

What a surprise, the alleged abuser was jacking himself up on testosterone.

A 60 Minutes probe into Epstein's banking, with Wyden already interviewed, vanished right after Sharyn Alfonsi got pushed out under Bari Weiss. Same editor who stalled the CECOT migrant story until Stephen Miller got a say. CBS keeps calling it timing. Sure looks like a pattern.

WE NEED 4 SEATS TO FLIP THE SENATE. JOSH TUREK SHOULD BE ONE OF THEM. I was researching Josh and came across one of his signature issues: Right to Repair. I had no idea how important this was. Most people in big cities probably don’t either. 🧵

I see some ethusiasm on here…. I’ll try to keep the Knoxville Nationals content coming for all of you as we get closer to the event.
