I mean, Sean Duffy has been busy, getting paid by DOT contractors to drive across the country on a free vacation. DC ATC will have to wait. Trump of all people must recognize Reality TV as a priority. www.nytimes.com/2026/08/05/u...

This is an astounding loss for the US if it comes to fruition. One of the biggest strategic losses the US has ever endured—perhaps biggest?—and all from a war the US chose to start for no reason, illegally.
Iran and Oman have reportedly agreed that all ships transiting Hormuz have to go through an Iran-controlled corridor, and are finalizing tolls of 3, 5, or 7%. This would close off the path outside Iranian waters the US encouraged ships to use during the MOU, then started bombing again to keep open.
Stolen valor from Mr. Bone Spurs. An insult to every man and woman who has worn the uniform.
Schiff: "He waited until he became president. Why did he wait to bring this $10b lawsuit? He waited so he would have the power of the presidency to leverage the IRS and DOJ to make him more money!"
Cool, cool. We’re basically out of ATACMS and PrSM, and we used half our *global* TLAM supply… all for the Strait of Hormuz to still be closed?
A vote to confirm Todd Blanche is a vote against justice for Epstein survivors.
The proposition that the president of the United States is an adjudicated rapist isn't an argument. It is a fact.
What Trump and Hegseth are doing in the Caribbean and Pacific is the international waters equivalent of Rodrigo Duterte’s anti-narco death squads. A crime for which Duterte is now on trial in The Hague, of course.
But he doesn't know how to fold an umbrella.
Trump: I am very disappointed with Jeanine Pirro. She folded like an umbrella.
We disgrace ourselves as a nation each and every day Donald Trump remains in office. The drafters of the United States Constitution provided a remedy for a criminally insane president like the one we have—impeachment and removal ...
Okay! So hello. My name is Allison Gill. For the last 9 years, you’ve known me as Mueller, She Wrote. I used to have to be anonymous. But not anymore. So, hello world!
Changed my name from Mueller, She Wrote to my actual name, Allison Gill. Hoping I can get my blue check back. @joshpetri.bsky.team can you help?
Trump endorsed both Ashley Moody and James Uthmeier in advance of the August 18 primary yesterday. Both are implicated in the suspected theft of $10M in Medicaid payments to use for political purposes--basically what Trump is trying to frame Tim Walz for. www.cbsnews.com/miami/news/f...
You can either tell the truth or you can work for Trump. You can’t do both.
NEW: Jake Taylor from MSNOW says Jeanine Pirro just arrived at the West Wing. Uh oh! Methinks her days are numbered!
🧵On Election Day, August 6, several organizations in Memphis are collaborating to provide free rides to the polls. The organizations that are coordinating this effort are the NAACP, Shelby County Voter Alliance, and the Black Clergy Collaborative. If you are in need of a ride to the polls......
Appalling cruelty — and all to fund more tax cuts for the rich.
“Sandwich guy case” “Harvard clawed frog embryo smuggling case” “Olympic canoeist reflecting pool vandalism case” “James Comey seashells Instagram post case” New rule: If the case sounds like a Mad Libs story, it’s probably about to implode.
I love this. Every blue state should be doing everything in its power to max out the vote.
Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger announced Friday that she has restored voting rights for 66,085 people who otherwise wouldn’t be able to vote due to past felony convictions. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
Trump is lying. WaPo knows he is lying. We all know he is lying. Yet, the Post cannot say it. Support independent prodemocracy media that never backs down from the truth. demdock.com/4w6emld
the executive doesn’t seem very unitary today
Oh my. Pirro v Burgum is on people. (Cannot see how they both stay in their jobs)
In a Friday night news dump, Trump DOJ affirms that its prosecution of an innocent Olympian was a cheap stunt to appease and reinforce Trump’s lies about the reflecting pool. Feds move to dismiss. Statement from Davey Hearn’s lawyers
And voila! No invisible radical leftist vandals?!!! Olympian’s charges dropped. Trump LIED so he could BLAME anyone but the real culprit — HIMSELF!
I think the reason the Reflecting Pool is getting so much reaction is because it's a tangible metaphor for all the failures of this regime. It's a physical manifestation of toxicity, vanity, cost, error, and assigning blame.
Epstein files aren't worth seeing or discussing, but Fauci's personal diary...? THERE's our new distraction. I'd listen to this remarkable woman.
