Man it's so funny when James Carville threatens to leave the Democratic party, like oh no, now the party might have candidates who are actually popular with their constituents and have popular policy positions and win elections what are we going to do noooo don't

Waking up to Sharia Law in NYC is crazy. Knicks won, crime is down, 2,000 toddlers are going to school for free, parents got “date night” with nyc babysitters, they’re building housing on city land, small businesses are saving money and selling ice cream. Its sunny out i should go get one.

Russia just used a cluster bomb in Kyiv Cluster bombs used against civilians is a war crime This has to end Putin has to be “put away” People can only take so much and there is absolutely no reason for this other than Russia are blood thirsty criminals

Frances Perkins was the patron saint of American workers and an inspiration for me during my time as labor secretary. She was the guiding light behind the creation of Social Security, the 40-hour workweek, the National Labor Relations Act, and much more.

Today's Prospect Patriot is Frances Perkins. She saw the Triangle Shirtwaist Factory go ablaze in 1911 and her life changed. "The New Deal was born that day," she said. 22 years later she'd be America's first female cabinet member. prospect.org/2026/08/04/a...

“Trump allowed 17 Sinaloa cartel members into the US. In May he commuted the 6x life sentences of the Gangster Disciples, most notorious drug trafficking gang… Now Honduran drug trafficker Hernandez. Is Trump setting up his own drug corridor?” @denisedwheeler.bsky.social bsky.app/profile/deni...

covie_93 tweet meme: “Kinda hard to convince people that vou're at war with drug traffickers while pardoning drug traffickers.”

“There has never been a president in American history who has gone out of his way to free more criminals and accommodate more crimes than Donald Trump.” @chrislhayes.bsky.social @allinwithchris.bsky.social bsky.app/profile/alli... Trump pardons criminals and he’s blocking local funding for police.

To be clear, there were never “Republican holdouts,” the fascists were always going to vote in favor of placing personal crook Todd Blanche in the office of Attorney General permanently because criminals will always elevate criminals.

Trump is spending… -$95M for “D.C. Beautification,” including $5M to paint bronze horses gold -At least $300M to construct his ballroom -Nearly $15M to repaint the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool Meanwhile, millions of Americans can’t afford groceries, gas, or healthcare. Priorities.

Ridiculous and indefensible decision by the Orioles to start the game on time. Caps off a weekend where they jacked up the ticket prices to FIFA-like levels and that backfired with smaller crowds than usual for when the Phillies visit.

~10,000 people died from the heat in Germany this summer, and nobody does a damn thing because the majority of them are elderly women. "Elderly women live longer." So the fuck what? We shouldn't try to protect them? I'm so so so sick of women being tossed aside. www.dw.com/en/more-wome...

More women die in heatwaves, but biology 'isn't main cause'

In country after country, more women are dying from the heat than men. But researchers say biology isn't the main reason. Age, working conditions, and unequal access to rest may drive the gap.

By inviting someone as deranged as RFK Jr on to her already flawed platform on CNN propaganda, Dana Bash gave him permission to spread disgusting dangerous lies as well as permission to yell at her and insult her on her own program. 10 years later and she has learned nothing.
