We’ve been saying this for a while now many of the people being targeted are just fishermen. Evidence now supports that the United States has killed individuals who were not involved in drug trafficking during its “counternarcotics interdiction operations” in the Caribbean and Pacific.

Instead of making healthcare more affordable and accessible when families need it most, the federal government is stripping coverage from thousands of Michiganders and destabilizing our entire healthcare system. www.wlns.com/news/michiga...

Probably would've been nice to know this before the 2024 election, but sure
@GottaLaff@gottalaff.bsky.social · 2d agoABC has picked it up now. "Capital One says it closed hundreds of Trump's bank accounts in 2021 'for anti-money laundering reasons'"
Almost two dozen Democratic-led states asked the U.S. Supreme Court Monday to uphold a block on President Donald Trump’s sweeping attack on mail voting, saying it poses “extraordinary threats to our democracy.” www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

You can either tell the truth or you can work for Trump. You can’t do both.

This administration, backed by a Republican-controlled Congress, is bankrupting the country. The US Treasury is paying $24 billion a week just in interest and legislators are actively trying to decrease revenue by reducing the tax burden on corporations and the wealthy. fortune.com/2026/07/10/u...

When President Trump and his gang tried to overturn the 2020 election, some key officials -- Republicans -- said no. One was @GabrielSterling, of Georgia. I have done a podcast with him. It was a pleasure and an honor. www.jaynordlinger.com/p/defender-o...

Sometimes, I get so aware of how stupid and dishonest Donald Trump is I forget how stupid and dishonest RFK JR is. But he always finds a way to remind me.
RFK Jr: Trump wanted to end lockdowns. In Fauci's diary, he talks about how the president was calling him trying to get him to reopen the country BASH: The lockdowns were down by governors K: They cited Fauci B: Govs were hearing from hospitals that their ICUs were overrun K: That's not true
Refrigerator trucks full of corpses. I'll never forget them. The party will not convince me to reject the evidence of my eyes and ears.
Internal documents show ICE's DNA collection has skyrocketed in the second Trump administration. Now hundreds of thousands of people never convicted of a crime are in an FBI criminal database forever. www.wired.com/story/ice-dn...

During the next pandemic I encourage MAGA to follow Donald Trump’s health advise to the letter
it’s pretty obvious that a lot of people remember that COVID lockdowns were unpleasant and from there just extrapolate that they were therefore bad policy
This is only happening because trial court judges (unlike SCOTUS and Congress) are continuing to hold the line. Each and every judge who has upheld rule of law, our Constitution, and basic evidentiary standards in this age of grotesque corruption should be celebrated.
Hard to overstate how much of a threat leaders and public officials who actually govern and serve the people pose to those whose political careers depend on fomenting cynicism and delegitimizing democracy
Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani@mayor.nyc.gov · 5d agoNow this is the kind of trash talk we can get behind. We’re containerizing neighborhoods by taking trash off our sidewalks and allowing mid-size buildings to trade in their wheelie bins for a bigger, better, cleaner alternative: Empire Bins. It’s time to put a lid on it, New York.
Covid was a cognitive test for the president and Trump failed it spectacularly. The worst performances of any country - 4% of the world’s population, 25% of the deaths during 2020. Good of Republicans to remind us.
Thou shalt not let the richest man on Earth tell his 250 million followers to murder journalists. Thou shalt lock him up for inciting violence.
here's a new low: the Pentagon just removed the names of the four most-recent Iran war deaths, because — I shit you not — "they were killed during a cease-fire." WHAT IN THE ACTUAL FUCK??? thank you for your attention to my post, in which my head explodes. link is here: bit.ly/4vTfMPb
Pam Bondi must appear under oath to testify. If they made Hillary Clinton show up, who has nothing to do with Epstein, then Bondi must testify given all she's done to cover up the crimes.
