Honestly is anyone surprised? I'm not. This is what you get when you elect a criminal who wants to be king to be President. Project 2025 told us exactly what was going to happen. And here we are.

Life long Democrat. Cannot believe what has happened to our country!!
Let’s see if Susan Collins stands by her “concerns”, or if she folds like she always does.
Susan Collins announcing she'll vote against a controversial nominee is basically the moment it becomes clear that nominee will be confirmed. It means Thune has enough votes to confirm, and thus, Collins gets a pass to look independent.
We can hardly wait. Our Congress passed a bill demanding that this happen, but they seem too corrupt/intimidated to follow up on it. We're hoping to replace most of them soon, but whatever you can do will be helpful & much appreciated. #ProudBlue
The problem is, even if there is a process, it relies on people being transparent and the senate enforcing the rules. And that is clearly not going to happen in this regime.
Chipotle isolated a single source of Jalapeno peppers contaminated with Salmonella. They figured it out. RFK Jr. can’t
They deserve a thank you! Join me sending them a thank you note. 250 Massachusetts Ave NW Ste 400 Washington, DC 20001 We must encourage the people fighting for our rights, to help them keep up the good the work.

Stolen valor from Mr. Bone Spurs. An insult to every man and woman who has worn the uniform.
It was over for Max Miller politically when he said his wife couldn’t have been abused because she offered to make him dinner 6 days later. He may not have known it when he said it, but that was the end. You have to be a sick bastard to come up with that as your defense.

This is the reality inside ICE detention centers. Children are being forced into jail-like conditions while this Administration strips away their basic human rights. We cannot allow this stand. We must hold this inhumane Administration accountable!
Anne Frank was arrested on this day in 1944. History rarely returns wearing the same uniform, it returns asking the same thing of ordinary people: Will you sit down and look away? Or will you stand up and fight? #Resist
The do nothing repugnants have blamed everyone for everything except themselves. They refuse to take responsibility for anything. Surprise? They have a script and they are sticking to it. Such an absolute clown show.
Not sure if everyone appreciates the difference. Rooftop solar hardwires into your main panel via a dedicated breaker, so it requires a permit, an installer, an electrician, and a utility agreement. Balcony solar just plugs into a wall outlet, sharing an existing circuit with no permits or rewiring.

Happy birthday to our 44th and one of my favorite Presidents (and I've lived through a few), @barackobama.bsky.social !
This hasn’t gotten much attention, but it should. While everyone was focused on Schedule F, the administration created something even broader. On July 30, a new OPM rule took effect that creates a second way to fire federal employees outside the normal civil service process.

More cops have been arrested for using flock cameras to stalk women than there are transgender athletes in youth sports.
A new Senate investigation says JPMorgan, Deutsche Bank and Bank of America processed massive sums tied to Jeffrey Epstein despite glaring red flags. Powerful institutions helped keep his operation running and every one of them must be held accountable. Follow the money, release everything.
