Newsom: They did not expect California. They did not expect all of you. They thought we were going to write an op-ed, have a candlelight vigil, maybe do a rally. They poked the bear and the bear is poking back

I continue to wonder when Americans will decide enough is enough. As Frederick Douglass reminds us:

“The limits of tyrants are prescribed by the endurance of those whom they oppress.”

Happy Monday morning Bsky! Have a great day peeps!

Welp — @davidhogg.bsky.social to Scott Jennings: "People are tired of being lectured by men with Rolexes on CNN about affordability in this country. That’s why Zohran is resonating."

What he said Part 3: 💯 🎯

The president of the United States thinks asylum-seekers come from mental asylums.

He says it in almost every interview where the topic of migration comes up.

How is this not 25th Amendment territory? How is he not an embarrassment to this entire country?

Holder: The Supreme Court is a broken institution. And it’s something that has to be part of the national conversation in ’26 and in ’28.

If there is a Democratic trifecta in 2028—and I think the possibility of that is pretty good—Supreme Court reform has to be on the table.

We just received our 10th Covid vaccine and we specifically asked to receive the made in Canada Moderna Spikevax 🇨🇦💉😷

The Dangerous Ones (@thedangerousones) Leave it to the unions!!! 💪🔥

From a Chicago iron worker's perspective.

This is an excellent idea!!!

Yeap!!! Or should I say "Let them eat cake."

it's time for journos to start asking Johnson meta questions

"Speaker, on 5 occasions last week you said 'I haven't seen it' when asked about news events w/big implications for public policy. Do you ever read the news, and do you agree it's problematic for the Speaker to be so woefully uninformed?"

I’m a Jewish Israeli New Yorker—and I’m Voting for Zohran My message to my fellow Jews in this city is: Don’t believe the lies you're hearing.

As an Israeli New Yorker, the only "terrorist sympathizer" I see in the mayor's race is the man who won’t condemn the killing of thousands of children. And as a woman, the only candidate who threatens my safety is the former governor who harassed multiple women and was forced to resign.

Telling it like it is. Thank you.

House Speaker Mike Johnson signed bill cutting $186B from SNAP in July 2025 Users shared this true claim amid uncertainty regarding whether Americans would receive federal food benefits during the 2025 government shutdown.

Canada says “elbows up.” I say for America, “cameras out.” Film every last one of these brutal criminals. We will need the evidence for their trials.

Best treat of the night.

Day 30 of President Trump’s Federal Government Shutdown:

In response to the President’s illegal refusal to deploy emergency federal funding to keep food assistance running, I am declaring a State of Emergency.

We will surge $10 million to food banks and food bank partners across the state.

Q: Just last week a minister was shot directly in the face with a pepper round by a DHS agent that left his face bloodied. Are you concerned that this is a religious freedom issue?

MIKE JOHNSON: I can't comment on any of those instances. I haven't seen or heard any of those videos

Still awaiting my George $oros payment for showing up at #NoKINGS_Day & staying until noon.

Somebody slipped this 20 under my door, but something about it seems fake.

Lights are on but nobody is home.
We have a broken Roomba for President.

The president had a MRI but won't say why.

He had bruises on his hands but wouldn't say why.

He just had an 'annual medical' even though he already had his annual medical.

He got shot in the ear but has never released the medical records relating to it.

How is any of this ok?

I have an even worse feeling about THIS:

After closing coal plants, Idaho Power is the rare utility cutting rates The utility asked regulators to lower electricity rates in Oregon, even as its peers raise them — and Trump pushes coal as the solution.

"But if the lessons in Oregon highlight anything, it’s that less coal likely means lower rates."

Jamie Raskin Outsmarts Jim Jordan And Sets Up A Big Jack Smith Headache For Trump Jim Jordan wants to investigate Jack Smith, so Jamie Raskin is using Jordan's investigation to try to get Smith to publicly testify about evidence against Trump.

After abolishing the Electoral College & ending Citizen's United, nothing would be better for this country than public testimony about January 6th from Jack Smith.

A guy can dream, can't he? shorturl.at/o0qwt
