My mind is blown that Trump has nicer things to say about Mamdani than Democratic Party leadership (I'm looking at you, Hakeem and Chuckles).

People at a protest sitting and standing at a monument. Some are wearing animal and frog suits.

Protestors at No Kings rally standing in front of a monument on a lawn in the city

A person in a chicken suit stands next to a protestor holding a sign "No Kings, No Dictators" with 2 flags on it, one upside down, and in the middle is a picture of a cartoon frog with an anti-fascist slogan. The top of the sign has a drawing of a crown with a red X over it.

A man stands in front of a stone building on a courthouse lawn. He's playing an acoustic guitar and people are around him. On the left side, one is holding a green sign urging the release of the Epstein files and asking what is Trump trying to hide. There are several flags being held and a few other signs.

Trump told Hegseth to use American cities where he has deployed troops as “training grounds” for the military.

As a veteran, this makes me sick to my stomach. I hope the generals realize this is unlawful and agree to resist this criminal abuse of OUR military!

Gun violence needs to be addressed. It looks like most of these shooters are conservative right lunatics. The silence is deafening.

Yes and how does this lead to releasing the Epstein Files? Thank you for your attention to this matter.

“Designed to Break You:” Two Incarcerated Writers on the Heavy Toll of Solitary Confinement The authors of a new book on solitary answer your questions about their experiences with isolation and the movement to end the tortuous practice.

Incarcerated writer Christopher Blackwell says the damage of solitary confinement isn’t always clear at first. “It is something that just chips away at your core spirit, sometimes leaving a shell of a person when they are released from its grasp.”

Still canceling

Trump caught ordering Bondi to prosecute Adam Schiff, Tish James, Comey -- anyone who successfully and/or forcefully exposed and acted on his crimes. This is an IMPEACHABLE offense.

Trump looks over his shoulder at the ghost of Epstein, who puts his hand on Trumps shoulder

Release the files!

The nation's capital waits for Trump's next move as a federal takeover threat looms President Donald Trump's promised law enforcement surge in the nation's capital didn't appear to happen as scheduled on its first night.

Just a thought. What could be behind Trump wanting to take over the city of DC? Is he planning something so brazen for 2026 that he needs extra protection for the White House? Remember in his first term how he hid in the basement during protests in June 2020. apnews.com/article/wash...

We need Democrats to fight back! Thanks and keep it up!

Back when I started, a large percentage of new followers were obviously fake accounts, but a few were questionable. Maybe it’s settled down now.

I stopped following most people back because I didn’t have time to screen the fake accounts, unless they interact with me and seem to be okay. I probably should be more careful.

I don’t usually click any links, I just thought it was funny and shared it to their official account. 😆 On Substack the worst that could happen is I see content, realize I followed the wrong one, and unfollow.

@lastweektonight.com I almost followed this guy on Substack. Good thing I was paying attention!
