NEW: Trump is moving to open 45 million acres of national forest to logging and development. 45 million. Acres. Land that belongs to you, that your grandparents protected, that nobody gets to replace. We just launched this. Tell Congress to stop him: actionnetwork.org/letters/tell...

We are projected to spend $268 BILLION on deportations — costing the average American taxpayer about $2,358 (according to @epi.org). But somehow we “can’t afford” to make sure hungry children can eat or ensure everyone, no matter their income, can access healthcare. Priorities.
SCHOOL BOARD SLATE: WON. GOODBYE MOMS FOR LIBERTY. We knocked doors all summer in these districts.
"Candidates should be talking much more about not just the rule of law on principle, but the prosecution of people in practice."
Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

Democrats last night in Pennsylvania flipped a seat in the state house in a special election. That district Trump was won by 18 points in 2024. Go Team!
Every vote to confirm Todd Blanche as attorney general is a vote to continue the coverup of the Epstein Files.
FYI: Blanche rescinded the ORDER establishing the slush fund, not the underlying “settlement.” The settlement says any changes must be agreed to by ALL parties, not just Todd. This “rescission” isn’t worth the paper it’s printed on.
So Tillis and Cornyn thought the 1.8. Billion dollar slush fun was so bad, that they will be willing to confirm the guy who came up with it. Huh
MSNow brings on Scott MacFarlane to fact check Trump during his Oval Office remarks: This is not a popular fund, as the president claims. I've yet to find any Republican in congress who champions serves as a surrogate for the slush fund.
Happy 65th Birthday, August 4th, to the best President in US History. The black man "they" feared, led with humor, dignity & grace for 8 yrs scandal-free, has a beautiful & accomplished family, and is beloved by millions around the world. @barackobama.bsky.social #BarackObama #ThePeoplesPresident

Susan Collins voted to give ICE and CBP $70 billion. She owns the consequences of that vote.
AOC: I said this a couple of weeks ago: I would not be surprised if, when ICE funding started up again, we would start to see more civilian deaths at the hands of ICE. And that’s exactly what has happened. We didn’t see things like this happening with the same degree when we froze ICE funding.
Wilson: I guarantee you there are 10 reporters in D.C. right now who know exactly what Mitch McConnell’s medical status is. They’re not reporting it. If I’m Beshear, brother, just declare the election. And if they want to prove that Mitch McConnell is alive and well, go do it.
Not sure why the FBI would be involved with a heart attack.
This man was playing his cello in the tear gas New Jersey State Police deployed at Delaney Hall last night. “Like the titanic!” protesters said.
In February, Trump purchased over $1 million in Dell stock. Just weeks ago, Trump told everyone to “go out and buy a Dell.” Its stock price is up over 60% since then. Now, Dell has been awarded a $9.7 BILLION Pentagon contract. See the problem here?

Buttiigieg: "Look, when you are this deep into your second year, if your reflex is to still be trying to blame the previous administration, it really shows that you are out of ideas, out of solutions, and unwilling to take ownership of your own choices."
"I don't think people are sufficiently prepared notwithstanding what happened in 2021, for the possibility that he will try to fuck with this election. And he will. He's already basically telling us that's what he's going to do, just the same way he told us he would do that in 2020."
A convicted felon as President of the United States talking about removing criminals is the very definition of hypocrisy.
Remember this fuck when his name comes on the ballot.
DOJ demanded voter files from all 50 states. DOJ sued 31 states for refusing their demand. My law firm intervened to protect voters in those cases. DOJ is now 0-5. My firm is 5-0. Lesson: When we fight we win.
