I get it now… my local “NEXSTAR” station, WGN-TV, is amping up the “rift in the Democratic Party” angle, which is rapidly becoming a reality if we let it. Regardless if one does or does not like Michigan’s decision, do not let the worst people in the world foment this. They did it with Kamala.

… the loudest bitching about individuals like MI’s El-Sayed seems to me to be the ex-Republican now Never Trumpers or Carville, notice? Unlike Bernie, El-Sayed IS A DEMOCRAT!! If I can embrace ex-Republicans in our tent, I sure as Hell have room for “scary” progressives WHO HAVE JOINED THE PARTY

Senator Ron Wyden@wyden.senate.gov · yesterday

Yep. Earlier this year I was interviewed by Sharyn Alfonsi of 60 Minutes about my Epstein investigation. Subsequently, CBS pulled the segment and fired the reporter. The MAGA buyout of media is aiding the Trump administration’s Epstein cover up.

The New Republic@newrepublic.com · yesterday

Banks permitted millions in suspicious transactions tied to Epstein—and former 60 Minutes correspondent Sharyn Alfonsi had the story months ago. But the report would never air. trib.al/ZShZlIS

If you show up to Bluesky without following anyone, you'll be treated to a series of posts about art, music, and dogs. If you show up to X without following anyone, you'll be bombarded with right-wing conspiracies and white supremacist slop. It's weird which one is seen as a "political bubble"

Is it me or did the Capital One affair not really break through On Here Another day, another scandal that would have tanked basically any other presidency

God@thegodshow.com · yesterday

Republican Senators are voting to confirm Trump’s lawyer to be AG when it just came out that Capital One shut down Trump’s accounts under suspicion of money laundering and Trump wants exemption from being investigated for tax fraud. THESE PEOPLE ARE CRIMINALS.

Trump’s wreckage will remain in 2028, and Vance or Rubio will own every bit of it. Democrats have a real opening—if we stay united, win independents, and fight for the House and Senate first. Read the post below, and share if it speaks to you. If you agree, please repost. #USPolitics #Midterms2026

Trump may have handed Democrats the biggest opening in a generation. The House is slipping away from Republicans. The Senate is the fight we cannot afford to sleep through. And with independents—the voters the GOP desperately needs—Trump is now in territory that makes Nixon during Watergate look almost normal. By 2028, Vance or Rubio won’t inherit a fresh start. They’ll be stuck carrying Trump’s inflation, chaos, infighting, and a MAGA brand that keeps driving away the middle. No wonder the Republican primary is starting to look less like a race to win the nomination and more like a race to avoid it. Nobody wants to burn their one shot at the presidency on a race they already expect to lose. Democrats need a genuinely fair primary—and once voters choose, the whole party has to get behind the winner. No grudges. No purity tests. No sitting it out because your candidate lost. Win independents. Take the House. Fight for the Senate. Then finish this in 2028. If we stay disciplined, I honestly don’t see Republicans entering that election with even a 20% chance. The opening is real. Let’s not screw it up.

NEWS: Former Trump press secretary and Rep. Max Miller's ex-girlfriend, Stephanie Grisham, has now filed a temporary restraining order against him

aka Uncle Cracker@unclecracker.bsky.social · 2d ago

I’m starting to think it’s quite over if we don’t get this stopped in the mid-term, because I don’t see many under 40 year olds, and that includes some of my own spawn, who seem to give a rat’s ass. The malaise is normalized.

George Conway ⚖️🇺🇸@gtconway.bsky.social · 2d ago

This is such complete and utter bullshit on the part of Thom Tillis and John Cornyn. Giving the Trump crime family immunity from tax audits remains as corrupt as anything we’ve ever seen in this country. Todd Blanche should be impeached, not confirmed.

Josh Gerstein@joshgerstein.bsky.social · 2d ago

JUST IN: Tillis confirms he is on board with Cornyn to vote yes on Blanche for AG, after Blanche renounces Anti-Weaponization Fund in writing & asserts that the waiver of any past taxes due is limited to POTUS, Don Jr., Eric & Trump Org. Earlier: www.politico.com/news/2026/08...

Ron Filipkowski@ronfilipkowski.bsky.social · 2d ago

The most corrupt, unethical AG in the US history will now take office after a sham deal with retiring Republican senators. Now this lawless DOJ will run amok with Trump’s criminal defense attorney carrying out his retribution tour against the innocent while the guilty go free.
