This hasn’t gotten much attention, but it should. While everyone was focused on Schedule F, the administration created something even broader. On July 30, a new OPM rule took effect that creates a second way to fire federal employees outside the normal civil service process.
It’s past time to BAN CONGRESSIONAL STOCK TRADING! No member of Congress [or the White House] should be trading stocks. Period. The American people deserve to know their representatives are working for them, not corporations and stock portfolios. It’s time to ban Congressional stock trading.
Today I helped one friend rethink her vote for the Senator race in FL and switch to @angieforfl.bsky.social I’m feeling pretty happy! This video gives you one more reason to vote for Angie Nixon!

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. Earlier: www.politico.com/news/2026/08...
BREAKING: Todd Blanche has released what he calls a rescission of the slush fund (left). The last lawsuit he mentions is mine (Gill v DOJ). This doesn't change the fact that the "settlement" setting up the fund is still in effect. On the right, Blanche is LEAVING IN PLACE Trump's tax immunity.
Padilla co-wrote a bill that would let the public sue a sitting president to recover money taken through corruption. Yes, a sitting president. www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/trumps-law...

Six congressmen bought between $83,000 to $245,000 in SpaceX stock just before its IPO: -Jared Moskowitz -Gil Cisneros -Dan Meuser -John McGuire -William Timmons -John James Five serve on committees whose work impacts SpaceX's business. We must ban members of Congress from trading stock.
"A concentration camp, in its most basic definition, is a place where a targeted civilian population, not necessarily accused of a crime, is detained and at least some of their basic rights are suspended," writes @jwashing.bsky.social. "That’s precisely what’s happening in the United States today."
Don’t call them ICE detention centers. Call them camps | John Washington
I’ve spent a decade reporting on immigration enforcement. The word ‘camp’ best captures the political function of these facilities

Every speech, every lawsuit, every doubt campaign has the same goal: make you feel like your vote doesn’t matter. It does. That’s why they’re spending this much energy trying to talk you out of it. In the end, only one word matters: VOTE #LoserTrumpsElectionLies #USDemocracy #Voices4Victory
To make life easier and more affordable in this country, we must confront and fix what's wrong with our political system.
The White House is now sharing this headline. Here’s the full context. About 6,600 people who indicated they were not U.S. citizens while applying for driver’s licenses or state IDs were mistakenly registered to vote because of a software error in New Jersey’s Motor Vehicle Commission

Gillian Branstetter@gbbranstetter.bsky.social · 3w agoRFK Jr. asked the National Institute of Health to dedicate $5 billion (!) to finding a link between vaccines and autism. "That would have dedicated more than a tenth of the NIH’s annual budget to investigating a hypothesis already refuted by scientists worldwide."
easy to forget how good he is at this
Acyn@acyn.bsky.social · 3w agoButtigieg: We gotta get out there and build that new governing vision, not by preaching to the choir, not by only talking to everyone who already agrees with us, but by finding the people who haven’t always voted our way and changing how they see us by showing that we see them.
Many of you are asking how you can help me. My only ask is this: Spread the word about the threats to democracy and how we can fight back. Tell everyone to subscribe to Democracy Docket and share its content. Thanks. bit.ly/4qmEiFz
