Country over party! Character matters! Truth matters! Hope is a good thing! 😊 Will this nightmare ever end?😔

Given what a conspicuous flop the previous Amazon documentary about boring Melania was, Amazon is now screaming from the rooftops, "This makes no business sense--other than as a bribe to reduce regulations of our horrible workplace conditions!" (And there is no part of Melania we haven't ALL seen.)

They had contracted Blue Angels for 43 years; 43 years The owner says she never received a personal notice that Hegseth was canceling her or any reminder that her contract renewal was coming up This is how the Trump administration treats people, especially Black people

Tales of everyday corruption. Pete Hegseth cancelled the $400,000 contract for making uniforms for the Blue Angels on the grounds that the contract with "The Sewing Box" was DEI since the firm is Black-owned. Instead, he awarded it to a Trump donor for $1,690,000, a 325% price increase!

@katiephang.bsky.social lays out how nominee for AG Todd Blanche is saying the quiet part out loud: The Trump admin will use every lever they can to restrict abortion, in every state. Call your Senators and tell them to vote NO on Blanche. 📞 888-380-2711 https://www.youtube.com/shorts/vXNF98NXAjg

What a sad state our country is in when the Senate has to debate whether a President’s former personal lawyer—who has led the burying of the Epstein Files and promised to make Trump immune from tax crimes—should be our nation’s highest law enforcement officer.

In 2026, Kyiv is facing more ballistic missiles in a single night than it did during the entire year of 2024. I can't wrap my head around the hell we're being forced to endure. And there is still no light at the end of the tunnel.

🇰🇵🇷🇺North Korea has transferred an entire missile unit to Russia,consisting of 120 ballistic missiles and 6 launcher systems 90 North Korean military specialists will be deployed to Voronezh, at the base of Russia's 112th Missile Brigade, where they will directly operate these weapons against Ukraine

Sen. Booker: “Todd Blanche, at the highest heights of our Justice Department, ran to the prison of Ghislaine Maxwell…and met with her for 2 days, insulting every single Epstein victim that had been asking for a meeting for years.”

In other words, going from a constitutional right (Roe) to a constitutional state by state decision (Dobbs) to a constitutional rule of no abortions. What is the DOJ/legal underpinning for that? There isn't one. Ladies & Gentlemen, your lawless soon-to-be AG. www.politico.com/news/2026/08...

Blanche assures anti-abortion supporters that Dobbs will be ‘permanent in every single state’

The acting attorney general made the remarks during a private call with faith leaders.

It's not just that the GOP accepted the Tate brothers. They promoted and normalized these rapists Republicans made them heroes. Now Andrew and Tristan Tate have over 12 million followers on social media And the worst part is, they're just a small part of the mainstream MAGA brand

However horrible you think the Tate brothers are, I promise, it's worse than that. It's insane that Dems aren't making a bigger deal of the GOP embracing these grotesque monsters.

I see people prefer the "Max Miller is blackmailing Bernie Moreno" theory to "Bernie Moreno, like most Republican men, thinks it's okay to assault his daughter" theory. I don't think that's true. Moreno's proclivities are known. GOP voters don't care. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
