"Drop the shovel & climb out of the ditch Larry, you're Surgeon General." --- is the response, when republicans are faced with their choice of Larry, or an actual medical doctor who happens to be a Democrat FL & TX = shit hole country
CEOs are raking in $17 million a year, 300 times what their own workers make, and John Husted’s answer is “learn to budget.” Sherrod Brown wrote the law that got over 100,000 Ohioans their stolen pensions back. Vote for who fights for you, not who lectures you. #BlueWaveIn90Days

Sure she pushed advertisements saying that he was a misogynistic candidate because he was Muslim, and she falsely implied that she was endorsed by the UAW and Obama, and she took millions of aipac dollars, and she did adopt a funny accent to make him sound more foreign, BUT her concession was nice
It’s bad. Ukraine is still effectively hitting both inside Russia and occupied Crimea almost daily, but Putin (as usual) is targeting population centers instead of legitimate military targets.
$1.4B to deploy the National Guard into cities? On top of: -$1.5T for the Pentagon -$240B for ICE and CBP -$1B to refurbish Trump's Qatar jet -$300M for Trump's ballroom -$100M for Trump's golf outings But nothing for working people.

Oregon Capital Chronicle@oregoncapitalchronicle.com · 2d agoAn Oregon nonprofit founded by state Sen. Christine Drazan, R-Canby, did not maintain a conflict of interest policy when it paid nearly $100,000 to a consulting firm she owns with her husband, missing a key step to help prove the transaction complied with tax law, records show. buff.ly/3FAT91f
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.

www.samsung-news.com/articles/32K... Everyone and their brothers and sisters know it to be true. And this is another reason we cannot trust our own government to follow thru with anything. Just like investigating Epstien.
Congressman Moulton wants the people of Massachusetts to trust him. But it's hard to trust someone who's making millions off of sweetheart deals in defense companies—and lying to voters faces about it.

Folks from the Women's March have been arrested at the Capitol for protesting ICE. Shout out to the women who are putting their lives and livelihoods on the line to get their message out: ABOLISH ICE.
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.
This would amount to a complete capitulation from the US. Literally no way to even attempt to spin this as a win.
It really seems that his objective is to destroy our country.
Dozens of gas-burning power plants are being built across the country, solely to power data centers. These plants could emit as much planet-warming pollution as half of all passenger vehicles in the entire country in a single YEAR. We need a data center moratorium — now.
In the 1950s we had 700 different chemicals in our food Today we have over 10,000 in our food In Europe, they only have 700 still today. Kelloggs makes the safer Canadian version and the American version. Two different options, same manufacturer. Americans have been sold out sadly.
Trump inherited one of the strongest economies in the world, yet 33% of Americans still think he inherited a disaster. The power of right wing propaganda. #BlueWaveIn90Days
Jon Husted looked this mother in the eye, and promised he wouldn't vote to cut her daughter's health care. One week later, that's exactly what he did.
A second man, Edwin Lopez-Cornejo, has died at Delaney Hall, the inhumane ICE detention center run by private prison contractor GEO Group. GEO Group’s profits have soared by over 700% since Trump has been back in office. Imagine profiting from death and suffering. Deplorable.
Heads up. Milei introduced his Thiel-aligned “Super RIGI bill” in an op-ed, “opening with “praise for the Dutch East India Company.” As noted by others, the Dutch East India Company was granted a “commercial monopoly, its own army, currency & legal system, & the power to declare war.” 7/31/26 … 1/

Ben Collins@bencollins.bsky.social · 13h agoYour little oopsie "mistakes" had me worrying for a year of my life about my partner going to jail for up to a decade based on lies likely fed to you by the top of the federal government. Show everyone what you're covering up in these emails and texts. There's a reason you don't want them released.
SHOUT OUT to Mike Luckovich: one of the all-time great political cartoonists. 🏆 With corporate media doing such a poor job in these most perilous of times, his work is more vital than ever! THANK YOU @mluckovich.bsky.social!!! 🙏

Frances Perkins was the patron saint of American workers and an inspiration for me during my time as labor secretary. She was the guiding light behind the creation of Social Security, the 40-hour workweek, the National Labor Relations Act, and much more.

"The New Deal was born that day," she said. 22 years later she'd be America's first female cabinet member. prospect.org/2026/08/04/a...
