Sunday President diarrheas on the country, Monday President bulldozes White House, Tuesday President steals $230 million, Wednesday President... fucks a horse? Let's see if he fucks a horse.

The founders knew a well informed public was critical to a functioning democracy.

HUD cancels funding for Twin Cities supportive housing developments minnesotareformer.com/2025/09/19/h...

This stupid cautious shit is going to kill the Democratic Party and take what’s left of democracy with it.

What a banal way of describing the march toward fascism.

Grossly irresponsible of the Times to have this ludicrous credulous spin as the top story the morning after a president who rules by fiat proclaims a totally specious emergency to militarize the capital - an editorial insult to our intelligence and our democracy.

Governors Can Not Remove Elected Legislators. Period. A democracy must have an independent legislature. Only voters elect and unelect representatives.

History and Article IV’s Guarantee Clause makes clear that a state’s governor cannot remove members of the legislature. No governor has ever claimed such power. It runs against the full history of Texas and American democracy as a whole.

Mark Kelly: "I hope we got something out of this. Putin is a war criminal. This is not a show of strength to allow him to fly into the United States to land here to negotiate with our president."

"If you live in Alaska, I need you to buy a Ukrainian flag and turn any area that Putin is going to be into a sea of Ukrainian flags - so many that, when Putin lands, all he's going to see is just yellow and blue."

Who will the defenders of democracy be this time?

A deadly shooting at the CDC shook its scientists. Now they want answers from RFK Jr. CDC Director Susan Monarez convened an online all-hands meeting of the agency division that focuses on vaccines, and employees called out Kennedy’s rhetoric specifically.

Exclusive: CDC Director Susan Monarez met with its vaccine-focused center to talk about yesterday’s shooting. I listened to a recording. Scientists and officials are shaken & pointing fingers at RFK Jr. Many said his vilification and misinfo turned them into targets. www.msnbc.com/opinion/anal...

@genefortexas.bsky.social: "We're buying time for Texans to wake up... To not only deal with TX but deal w/ this in every other state. If ppl who lie, cheat, and steal are allowed to win the day, that is the end of our country... Get off your ass! This is our last shot at saving the American dream."

The EPA is preparing to cancel $7 billion in grants intended to fund rooftop solar projects for low- and middle-income households. Officials plan to send notices to all 60 recipients in the Solar for All program, spanning 49 states, informing them that their funding has been revoked.

Unfortunately, this is where we are headed... shameful...🥺

YouTube video by Mother Jones I Called Everyone in Jeffrey Epstein’s Little Black Book…

“I Called Everyone in Jeffrey Epstein’s Little Black Book”

That is an investigation we published in 2020. Watch our recap here and check back for part two later today!

CROWD BELOW: "Jump! Jump!"

kennedy is going to kill a lot of people

OH LOOK: In response to my FOIA request for the Epstein grand jury materials, the DOJ says the release of the material IS NOT URGENT, despite Trump saying it is! (FYI you can support our legal action here: www.nationalsecuritylaw.org/donate )

when RFK says he wants to “end chronic disease,” what people hear is “he wants to cure us” but what he means is “i want to cull the weak”

Republicans are waging a generalized war on science, but I think many of them don’t fully grok that RFK isn’t at war with science alone or per se: he’s at war with sick people, and of the view that only the lucky should be allowed to survive into old age. They are know nothings, he is Mengele.

2 days apart.

Newsom: They play by a different set of rules . And we can sit back and act as if we have some moral superiority and watch this almost 250 year experiment be washed away. We are not going to allow that to happen. We have agency. We can shape the future

@robertgarcia.bsky.social: "We weren't born yesterday. We are going to get those [Epstein] documents and make sure that what [Maxwell] tells us is aligned with what's actually been documented in these files and all these papers."

Absolutely surreal to watch White House reporters ask Leavitt questions about tariffs moments after she and Gabbard used this briefing to baselessly accuse Obama of crimes punishable by death. We’re a sick joke of a country.
