Major Springsteen fan. I love gardening and science and hate all things Trump related. Please, no DMs until I get to know you! 😺
The fact that the Democratic senators are agreeing to a continuing resolution until Dec 11th with NO compromises for them is absolute political malpractice and head scratching. Why not even try to ban like…. The arch? Anything!

Donald Trump dodged the draft but is happy to post photos of himself in uniform while he sends our kids to die in his war.
Let's be clear, Trump is in Las Vegas to champion his billionaire friends he gave the biggest tax break in history to... not the working families who are struggling in the economy have wrecked. The average Nevada family now pays $2,900 more on necessities since Trump took office.
Trump sure does love guys who hit women.

First of all, this is a stupid lie. Second, Donald is intentionally *raising* the cost of prescriptions. He is cruelly about to cut Medicare subsidies for drugs.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · 4h agoTrump: "I don't get credit for anything. Even prescription drug prices, where they're down 600 percent."
1% of the country owns more wealth than the middle class. Why? Because Washington spent decades fighting for the rich instead of working families, and Trump has taken it to a new level. November is our chance to elect leaders who actually give a shit about working people.

Good luck with that. Alabama ranks as the 44th state (at the bottom) in terms of health care and education.

This isn’t remotely true — again, reference the Economist cover in October 2024 calling the US economy “the envy of the world” — and if anything it’s true if the world Trump handed Biden in Jan 2021.

Big Oil faces a clear choice — help ease the burden for families or exploit Trump’s war of choice to generate profits. I’m demanding answers on why Illinois families are paying huge prices, how these companies are profiteering, and what steps they’ll take to provide relief.
A lifelong Republican just endorsed Mary Peltola because she understands working-class struggles better than the people supposedly on his own side. This is what happens when we build something bigger than party lines. Let’s keep that momentum going. #BlueWaveIn90Days #USDemocracy #RisingBlue
What once would have been a pitch in a writers’ room for tastelessly edgy joke in a comedic satire of a deranged country full of greedy sociopaths is now our reality.
This is incredible content, it's the same "it's cheaper if you cook / I'm too tired from work to cook" discourse from BlueSky except literally no one posting actually cooks or has a real job, so nobody has any standing to argue either side and yet they're far nastier about it.

DOJ isn't throwing the case against Davey Hearn out...it's putting it in a drawer "Without prejudice" means they can pull it back the day Trump asks, & he attacked the decision to drop it within hours That's why we're asking for dismissal w/ prejudice More @washingtonpost.com👇 -TN

a reason that Stevens lost and other AIPAC candidates are losing despite the huge infusions of money is that Dem voters don't want to vote for a candidate who is funded by the same org who will immediately turn around and fund the Republicans

Senator Whitehouse pointing out how absolutely ludicrous it is to vote for Todd Blanche. There will never be any justice for the Epstein survivors, no justice for the families of the victims of ICE andno justice for the Capitol police that were attacked on Jan. 6. #SheShed #ViVaHerAlliance
Senate Judiciary Democrats 🇺🇸@judiciarydems.senate.gov · yesterdaySen. WHITEHOUSE: Voting for this guy Todd Blanche today gives Republicans’ blessing to the botched Epstein Files release. Even Pam Bondi pointed at Blanche as responsible. It gives their blessing to his continuing role in the coverup.
