The timing is literally impossible to ignore.

How many weekends has he done this? He is pumping and dumping around the opening and closing of the stock market and playing with Iranians like this is some sort of video game. People are dying, this is no game and he is an idiot and no leader.

Isn't there a law that states if you challenge the outcome of any election, you cannot participate in the next?.? ...the 2020 results are currently challenged

Corporate spending on elections has already topped $500 million this year. That's one third of the $1.58 billion in total that corporations have spent since Citizens United in 2010. Hawaii and Montana both have plans to neutralize this disastrous SCOTUS ruling. Other states must get on board.

You can be arrested, tortured, and made to confess to a crime that never happened.

It’s time to reread this wonderful book.

Good news. Temporary but we'll continue to fight Russell Vought's efforts. “...Republicans rejected killing the proposed rule outright,” Washington Sen. Patty Murray, the Senate’s top Democratic appropriator, said in a statement, committing to “keep fighting to put a stop to it once and for all.”

My books will be on my shelves where they belong. A few friends used to laugh at me for keeping what they called obsolete things like vinyl records and old books. They all agree it was a good idea now.

Exactly. The regime keeps lying about their voter suppression efforts as "voter ID" but it's not...it would also affect online & mail-in voter registration and end vote by mail. We all need to be encouraging our people to verify their registration well before the election.

We vote “by mail“ in every election. We get our ballots in the mail. We do our research. I take them to a secure drop box. Please. Verify that your registered address is correct/current and that you are active in the system. Fix anything before November. Love you all. Stay Blue. 🇺🇸💙

Tom Morello from Rage Against the Machine has it figured out. I couldn't agree more. Fuck fascism.

Daily reminder that we don’t have a president. We have a mob boss masquerading as one.

Reminder that now is the time for each of us to focus on registering more people to vote and, closer to the election, to focus on get-out-the-vote action to counter voter suppression.

REPUBLICANS POKED THE BEAR They used gerrymandering to weaken Black voting power. New data shows they helped drive higher Black voter turnout in parts of the South instead. 📌 Alabama saw one of the biggest increase in Black voter mobilization. That will matter in @dougjones.bsky.social gov race.

“The president and first lady seemed totally unfazed about whether there was an abuser—another abuser—in their workplace. There was no follow-up from either of them to see if I needed help or protection. There was no investigation ordered. No effort to get to the bottom of this ....

I agree...in the after time we will not only need to clean up the mess, but we the people will create something vastly more humane.

Seth Abramson@sethabramson.bsky.social · 4d ago

The rest of your natural life—and then some. That's how long we'll be cleaning up the mess of Trump and MAGAism. The nation as it was before is lost. It won't return. What we seek to save now isn't what used to be. It'll be something else altogether. It'll be what we make it.

It's classic gaslighting.

Max Miller released audio recordings of conversations he has with his ex wife. In one of them, she accuses him of clandestinely recording their conversations. “I have never recorded our conversations” he says, while recording their conversation. This is domestic violence. Ask me how I know.

I worked for New York’s largest medical center at the start of the pandemic. There were morgue trucks on the streets. They set up emergency medical tents in Central Park. Healthcare worker colleagues died. It is horrific that RFK Jr is on national TV lying that ICUs were empty.
