If we learn anything from the past decade of American politics, it should be that politicians will say anything to get votes, and will never be held accountable for the blatant misrepresentation of their core ideals.

Has Ramaswamy taken a position on Max Miller yet? He should be forced to.

Concerned for her seat, Susan Collins is a no on Todd Blanche. www.cnbc.com/amp/2026/08/...

All the GOP gaslighting about this not being their end game and that Libs were overreacting and being hyperbolic…such bullshit. Every move since Reagan has been to fully dismantle progressive gains.

The Republican Party is a scam.

Project 2026 sounds pretty appealing to me. I can see why this fluffer wouldn’t be eager to support any of these democratic ideals…

Meanwhile CPS in Michigan fumbles while they remove Buttigieg’s kids from him under false allegations. This whole year wreaks of hypocrisy.

Can someone explain how TF Ohio child protective services are not engaged here? Mr. Miller is suspected of assaulting his own two-year old daughter and breaking one of her bones.

Another lunatic senator that has stayed well past his promise, and who travelled to Russia with his buddy Rand. Wisconsinites need to flush this incompetent buffoon from power.

Matvei Michkov won’t give up on scoring a Michigan in the NHL

Philadelphia Flyers winger Matvei Michkov scored a Michigan goal in the Match of the Year in Russia, and he thinks a lacrosse-style goal in the NHL is still ahead of him.

And when the DOJ is a no-show, what then? Who will enforce the contempt charges? Who will execute arrest warrants? Will this be yet another breach of the rule of law under this administration?

@katiephang.bsky.social Congratulations on your win against the DOJ tonight... It looks like you are almost at the finish line to get the unredacted Epstein emails you requested. The judge ordered them to be on his desk in a few days and then soon to you!!! Good job! You showed everyone the path!!!

Anyone else seeing a theme emerging in American journalism? The integrity is gone: bought and sold for optics. Knowledge is now provided by the filthy rich when and if they deem it worthwhile to them.

49ers wanted to keep Shanahan accident quiet, and some in the media complied

Saturday's news that 49ers coach Kyle Shanahan had been in a serious car accident was surprising, to say the least.

It’s disappointing that it’s taken this long for AIPAC’s influence to become part of the general dialogue. The manner by which Israel has rendered our political process inert just baffles me.

Pam Keith@pamkeithdc.bsky.social · last wk.

I am Black and I am progressive. And I want to say that I am DISGUSTED by the way the establishment Dems are now using the Black community as a cudgel against progressive candidates. The deep investment that AIPAC made in Black elected officials has kept them in office for years.

Curious what Jill Stein does in the weeks not immediately preceding a federal presidential election? Does she have a podcast, or a blog? Does she work the news shows? Is she lobbying? Seems so odd that she would pop up unannounced every four years.

We rise by lifting others: this is how the real world works. We're interdependent. That is an objectively good thing and reason for hope. For all who lift me up and allow me to help lift them up, I am grateful. Please check out my new "We Rise By Lifting Others" Starter Pack #1. go.bsky.app/9Kkv2zB

Then nothing happens…no repercussions for assaulting someone in the media. Then it becomes the norm. We are fucked.

WHOA!! Rep. Zach Nunn (R-IA) just STRUCK a person asking him a simple question about rural hospital closures. Reporter: Do you still think rural hospital closures are a myth? Nunn: I said I'm with a constituent. You should protect their privacy! *SMACK*

And we have this same conversation every election cycle. “Watch out for a massive Blue Wave” becomes “well, that was underwhelming” each time. Things won’t change until it’s impossible to right the ship peacefully.

The Editorial Board@editorialboard.bsky.social · 2w ago

I think the main problem facing the Dems before the midterms is the assumption that voters will show up to punish the GOP. Yes, they seem animated. Polls suggest it. But I think we all underestimate the damage done to public trust. If people don't believe in democracy, they won't participate.

12 days until it is too late, Gov. we are all watching your next move. Rise up and meet the moment, or face the repressions that go along with inaction.

Gov. Beshear suggests he received information suggesting McConnell ‘passed’ in new interview

Staffers will fall on the sword for decisions they had no way of orchestrating without assistance from the real criminals in this power manipulation scheme.

Jon Cooper@joncooper-us.bsky.social · 2w ago

Intentionally concealing the death of a U.S. senator to manipulate legislative business or the succession process could expose those involved to serious federal criminal charges. No one gets to hide a death for political gain.

Enough with the examples of how our entire system of government has devolved into a corrupt campaign by the rich to hold the reigns of power. The recasting of our system back to the masses is long overdue.

Just one more thing. If Mitch is fine and recuperating why is there only one suspiciously staged picture of him? Did the iPhone run out of film?

How many balls does it take to be bold? Ferfucksake, it’s not like you’re stealing a SCOTUS seat or calling a state AG to find 11k votes. Force. The. Hand.

The partisan POS president has ordered flags at federal building to fly at half-mast nationwide to honor a SC senator. Who can count the number of Dem senators that have passed while this shitbag as been in office? Partisan hackery to keep us divided.

August 4 will arrive. The GOP will announce McConnell’s “sudden death”. The Dems will issue strongly-worded letters, thinking that will equalize what has been done to Kentucky voters. Nothing will change because Dems are inert and weak.

For every Platner misstep out there in DMC land, there are 10 “stern letter” Schumer’s and even more AIPAC-funded Jeffries’ out there. I, for one, will take inexperienced passion over “toe the line” establishment idiocy every single time.
