The State of Washington evacuating 65K people due to wildfires. Democratic Governor Ferguson spoke to both lardass and DHS Secretary Marky Mark Mullin directly on Aug 2 requesting disaster relief. As of 8/3, neither had heard if FEMA disaster relief had been approved. 😡😡😡

A.I. is a political theory. And it is gobbling up our democracy.

Trump keeps posting that America was once the laughingstock of the world, but now that he is president, it's never been more respected. I can 100% confirm that Donald Trump is a laughingstock here.
🥹 Ukrainian soldier near the frontline spots an elderly woman who hasn't evacuated, she says she has nowhere to go. Without hesitation he offers her to move into his vacant home and live there for free, 1,000km away and safe from the Russian fascists.

Imagine the shitstorm Republican electeds and their friendly cut and pasting stenographers in the legacy media outlets would have raised - if Barack Obama or Joe Biden withheld or rejected disaster funding strictly for red states. Reasonable to assume they’d be impeached w/in weeks.
“Trump has rejected disaster aid for Democratic-run states at the highest rate in the 47-year history of the Federal Emergency Management Agency.” Right now people in blue states are basically paying federal taxes as if they’re colonized territories of red states. www.politico.com/news/2026/03...
A mother gave the government her fingerprints, tax records, and DNA to get her 6-year-old daughter back. She did everything officials asked. ICE used that information to find and arrest her. A child welfare system became a deportation tool. open.substack.com/pub/adamkinz...
ICE Turned Family Reunification Into A Deportation List
A program created to place migrant children with relatives has become a pipeline for deportation arrests.

As the Democratic establishment screeches in protest against the success of charismatic and energetic candidates on the left, the party itself is a shambles. Money problems, behavior problems, and general disorder at the worst possible moment. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/26/u...
Inside the Phone-Throwing Drama at the Troubled, Broke Democratic Party (Gift Article)
The Democrats should be well positioned to make gains in this year’s midterms. But inside party headquarters, every week brings paranoia, worries about money and, on occasion, emotional eruptions.

Marco Rubio is against birthright citizenship. But Marco Rubio *is* a birthright citizen. Ted Cruz is against birthright citizenship. But Ted Cruz was born in Canada. He only got US citizenship by a birthright citizenship law because of his US mother. They are both shameless hypocrites.

We now have a Department of Defense that is "defending" a dying nation (a nation where people can't afford a place to live or food to eat). So, what are we REALLY defending? The ability of the military industrail complex to make money. That's what we are defending now. SMH @hcrichardson.bsky.social

We know Russia interfered during the 2016, 2020 & 2024 elections, for Trump. Musk admitted interfering during the 2024 election. The orange felon has now removed the election safeguards, which were in place and will declare the #midterms illegitimate. Bookmark this.
These people are fucking evil and I’m tired of hedging on that point.

Consumer protection agency deletes thousands of pages as Trump administration seeks to dismantle it
Deletion of the bureau’s website content is just the most recent part of a larger plan to ‘undermine an agency that’s helped people’

He's not sure he has the legal right to do it. But, he should put a limit on the silence. He should request to see McConnell in person, to assess for himself just how capable he is to ever return to his duties. If he's denied, he may have to go to court to get permission to appoint another Senator.
He should face imprisonment, alongside the other individuals involved in the murders. 😡🤬
I am just waiting for Trump to declare martial law to cancel my vote before the midterms.
🚨MARSHA STAFFER: “IT’S GONNA BE HELL. YOU’RE GONNA BE ASKED TO BREAK THE LAW.” Phil Williams got tapes from INSIDE @MarshaBlackburn’s office showing Marsha + “bald-headed psychopath” Ward Baker illegally make taxpayer-funded staffers do campaign work - and Marsha is lying about the ethics probe.
