I protest on behalf of my slain civil rights ancestors, who knew that injustice—though born of whiteness—wounds us all.
Overnight, the DOJ cut a deal with Senators to push Todd Blanche confirmation through tomorrow. This is corruption in plain sight!
After years of being told that undocumented immigrants and small community healthcare providers were the source of rampant healthcare fraud, the report says the overwhelming majority of alleged fraud came from, corporations. 😡 #DemVoice1 #ProudBlue #Pinks theintercept.com/2026/07/31/i...
Corporations, Not Immigrants, Are Responsible for Vast Majority of Healthcare Fraud, OIG Report Shows

WTF News 🗞️ Less than a month after former FBI Director James Comey's indictment earlier this year, prosecutors sought the assistance of the notorious gangster Sammy "The Bull" Gravano to build their case against him, his defense lawyers alleged in a court filing on Tuesday.
Josh Hawley: “Nothing says honesty like taking the Fifth, eh Doc?” (Honest people don’t plead the Fifth) Trump pled the Fifth about 440 times in 2022. Fauci didn’t commit any federal crime. This was all about getting him to say that Covid originated from a lab leak funded by the NIH. #Pinks
Somebody better warn #MegynKelly that coming for our girl, #MichelleObama is not a good idea. Oh, & when NBC replaced Tamron Hall w/ Megyn on the #TodayShow, Tamron went on to launch her own successful show on ABC (still on air) and Megyn is doing podcasts! Bloop! #BlackGirlMagic #SheShed #Pinks
Part D subsidy changes hit in 90 days. Seniors pay more at the pharmacy, pharma companies pay nothing. Trump admin says it's not a "cut" — tell that to retirees whose copays just tripled. Call your rep: block Medicare cost-shifting now. #Pinks #SheShed #ProudBlue #OneV1
A schoolchild in Tehran. A mother in Gaza. A father in Beirut. Different names, same silence after the bombs. Pope Leo XIV keeps begging leaders to choose dialogue over “the thunderous sound of bombs”. His #CupOfJoe knows that peace is more than a talking point.
Reporting this morning says ‘Trump “contemplates” expanding Iran War with a massive attack’. Translation-Trump is going to expand the war so that he can use it as an excuse to interfere in the midterms. Demand your reps stop him. This war is illegal! #Pinks #OneV1 #SheShed #ProudBlue

This is horrible, listen to this husband, a U.S. Army Soldier breakdown begging for his wife’s release. She was taken by ICE in early June. How will the United States of America ever recover from the shame of wreaking so much havoc and destruction upon so many good people? #pinks

Trump wants to tariff Canada… because of wildfire smoke. Maybe if he had taken climate change seriously instead of mocking it, and sent firefighters to help Canada the way Canada and Mexico helped California, we’d all be breathing cleaner air. #USDemocracy #Pinks apple.news/A3WqaQ8AsTFy...
