In Texas, a woman was jailed after miscarrying in a public restroom. She spent five months there before prosecutors admitted they didn't have any evidence of wrongdoing

One thing democrats could do is announce that in 2029 any violation of this law will be summarily revoked at the relevant corporation’s expense, wiping out shareholder gains, seizing holdings, etc.

I get that the Trump White House has decided that Congress is a vestigial organ, but I think there should be more coverage of the fact that Brendan Carr just up and said "yes, Congress put a 39% cap on media ownership, but I think I can ignore it for reasons."

Trump signed an Executive order limiting birthright citizenship despite the Supreme Court ruling it Constitutional. So not only is Trump bypassing Congress but ignoring the Supreme Court in violation of the Constitution. Impeachment is too good for this criminal. Lock him up.

Bill Cassidy got choked up describing how hard he worked to “make the right decision” on whether to vote to confirm Todd Blanche. I just want to know what’s being held over his head or what he’s so scared of. Confirming RFK Jr. should’ve been the last of these capitulations.

🎯

I hope he appeals it and the court takes long enough to strike it down again so that we can get a political shift in Congress that will not rubber stamp his every whim.

Deputies Wrongly Raided their Home; a North Carolina Family’s Lawsuit Will Move Forward

A North Carolina family was sleeping in their home when a heavily armed SWAT team showed up in the middle of the night looking for a suspect who had never been there and was a stranger to the family.

Repubs believe they have the required number of votes so Murkowski & Collins have been given permission to vote “No”. It’s not a brave, courageous or moral choice on their part. It’s the game they play. They’d be voting yes if their vote was needed. Don’t give them any moral or ethical credit here.

While the proposed amendment does not establish a new congressional map, it does give Maryland voters the chance to eliminate constitutional obstacles that could open a path for lawmakers to counter Republican gerrymanders for the 2028 election. 💼 Case page:

Spotted this nugget on insta #impeachthemferagain

The core economic pitch for Trump's mass deportations was "fewer immigrants means more jobs for Americans. Unsurprisingly, that's just not happening Instead of rising, prime-age employment rates for native-born Americans fell to the lowest levels in more than four years in data released today

I'll post this CAMPAIGN TRAILS piece again for the alleged liberals who refuse to listen to reality -- you need leftists in the Democratic Party. The "moderates" who are attacking them are only worried about keeping their own jobs, not the success of the party. Punching left is a con.

Punching Left

Over the last month, there's been a flurry of panic from self-styled moderates and centrists in the Democratic Party about the success of a few socialist candidates in party primaries. Some of this g...

This is a batshit response to attacking candidates who are winning primaries and elections, when the other side is fascists. If you think you have more to lose from lefty candidates winning office than MAGA's continued destruction, no one should take you seriously. www.nytimes.com/2026/08/06/u...

Once again. It's simple! The only reason that the #EpsteinFiles have not been published is that they incriminate the president of the United States, and those others who are in a position to stop them from being released.

When your party leader is a president with historically low approval ratings, who has raised prices through tariffs and wars, uses disaster relief and science grants to punish states that didn’t vote for him, and has agents shooting people in the streets, this is what you do.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but Mark Cuban is not one of the good guys. He's a neo-tech who is throughout the Epstein Files. He is heavily invested in ushering in digital ID and biometric systems, pharma, enhanced sports, and data centers. He has an agenda. Don't fall for it.

There is a player on the LA Queens, Brittany Apgar, who has a limb difference and traveled back to Illinois from receiving her first ever batting prosthetic *today* and is 3-for-3 in her first game playing with one. Incredibly cool.

El-Sayed: "Once a government agency like ICE is told it has impunity to do the worst things and violate the highest law of the land, which is the Constitution itself, I don't think you can reform or retrain. I think we need to start from scratch ... I think we need to abolish it."

"We just blew $32 million on the primary and got our asses kicked, so now we're going to double down to support a Florida Millionaire who already lost statewide in Michigan in a Trump year" is really not quite the threat they think it is 🤷‍♂️

The Los Angeles Dodgers after being consecutively swept by the Red Sox and the Cubs

Despite being shown boxes of evidence by his own appointee, Trump would rather punish innocent American citizens to cover his mistakes. The man is a monster and everyone that supports him should be voted out of office Sometimes it’s that simple.

The only promise Donald Trump has kept to the American people is the “dictator on day one” promise.

Been wondering for some time now exactly what it's gonna take for MAGA to realize they sound smarter when they're not speaking.
