Trump continues to take lessons from Putin. This is what a mob run state looks like.
Carl Quintanilla@carlquintanilla.bsky.social · 4h ago“.. 15 companies with investment from President Donald Trump’s sons have garnered $3.2 billion in federal contracts, investments, and loans — most coming after Trump took office for the second time.” @washingtonpost.com www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2...
False equivalence from an equivocating but unequivocal coward.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com · yesterdayTillis: "Everybody has this view that they are as pure as the driven snow and it's the other side that has a problem. I think we both have a problem, folks. If you want to talk about weaponization, take a look at Biden, take a look at Obama, take a look at Crossfire Hurricane ... "
A civilian medical plane went down after an experimental US military GPS jamming test reportedly disrupted its radar. Every person aboard lost their life. www.yahoo.com/news/us/arti...
Schiff: "He waited until he became president. Why did he wait to bring this $10b lawsuit? He waited so he would have the power of the presidency to leverage the IRS and DOJ to make him more money!"
Phang: "Capital One said, 'We don't want the business anymore of the 45th president of the United States, his businesses, his failed sons, and his revocable trust.' So you can imagine -- I am just hypothesizing... but it suggests whatever Capital One uncovered was pretty bad. Makes you wonder..."
Gill: All 100 senators last week passed a non-binding resolution condemning any pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell. They're simultaneously considering confirming the guy who met with her and moved her to a low-security facility as the top cop in the United States. That is so insane to me.
The GOfacistP is doing everything Trump orders them to do - they do not care about law & order or the american people for that matter! www.youtube.com/live/_r9O1Km...

Whitehouse: "Today I think is a sad and embarrassing day for this committee as it looks like on a party-line vote we are going to advance out of this committee probably the most discreditable person ever to seek the office of attorney general. Let's start with the Epstein files ... "

This is what happens when you have literal prison camps for people who may not even have committed crimes.
Gwynne Hogan@gwynnefitz.bsky.social · 2d agoA 39-year-old El Salvadoran man, who was being held at Delaney Hall, has died, the man's family says. He's the father of a 12-year-old US citizen daughter and has lived in the country for nearly 20 years. www.thecityreporter.nyc/2026/08/03/s...
LEFT TO RIGHT: Defeated the British, freed the slaves, raped the children.
This is such complete and utter bullshit on the part of Thom Tillis and John Cornyn. Giving the Trump crime family immunity from tax audits remains as corrupt as anything we’ve ever seen in this country. Todd Blanche should be impeached, not confirmed.
Josh Gerstein@joshgerstein.bsky.social · 2d agoJUST IN: Tillis confirms he is on board with Cornyn to vote yes on Blanche for AG, after Blanche renounces Anti-Weaponization Fund in writing & asserts that the waiver of any past taxes due is limited to POTUS, Don Jr., Eric & Trump Org.

11 years ago today, Ken Paxton surrendered at the Collin County Jail on felony securities fraud charges. This is his mugshot.
It’s not a cult. They just keep finding new domestic abusers to cheer for. www.politico.com/news/2026/07...
Todd Blanche refuses to translate the foreign language documents in the Epstein Files, despite the fact there was an international sex trafficking ring.
MeidasTouch@meidastouch.com · 3d agoPhang: "The fact that it's taking France and England and other foreign countries to be able to launch investigations, and yet our American DOJ is sitting on it doing absolutely nothing, including not cooperating with those foreign nations, is such a big red flag."
The Secretary of Health and Human Services is pathologically lying, gaslighting psychopath.
The Bulwark@thebulwark.com · 3d agoRFK: "You are saying nonsense." Bash: "I am not saying nonsense, excuse me?…This is not productive. " RFK: "You're talking nonsense…You were scaring people." Bash: "Why are you saying that?" RFK: "Because that was the job of CNN." Bash: "Okay, stop."
The man endorsed by Sarah Huckabeast in this video is Arkansas state Rep. Austin McCollum. McCollum was arrested today on charges of aggravated assault against a family or household member, first-degree false imprisonment, and third-degree domestic battery. www.nwaonline.com/news/2026/au...
Release the Epstein files or let us call them for what they really are: The Trump files!
Acyn@acyn.bsky.social · 5d agoKamala Harris: The deal would basically be what Barack Obama got. That he pulled us out of. I think that it's important to not be a conspiracists, but you can listen to what people are saying. And wonder. Is it just a full on distraction from the things he can't handle or has not handled?
How is Ken Paxton able to own at least 15 real estate properties worth around $9 million—including a $1 million property in Hawaii with an ocean view—on his government salary of $153,000 per year? Explain it to me like I’m five.
Considering how badly Covid was mishandled, they're probably going to regret the decision to make Fauci's personal diary and journal public. We're going to see how it was handled from the insider, from Fauci's point of view... based on you know...science.
This is not immigration enforcement. Call it what it is.
Masked thugs are rampaging through our neighborhoods & abducting people. They're ripping apart families, stealing children away from their parents & parents away from their children. Don't become numb to it. The abducted are given no rights & they can do this to anyone, even you. #ICELawlessness
Talarico: When I get tough questions, I answer them. When Ken Paxton gets tough questions, he runs away, literally runs away from reporters, from voters, from anyone asking hard questions. If you've given an Epstein style sweetheart deal to a child predator, you should have to answer questions.
