Those damn liberals with their pesky "facts" and "truth!"

In a Chicago suburb, ICE GOONS brutally attacked a 15-year-old girl. They forcibly removed her from her car, slammed her to the ground, and then placed their knee on her neck.

Senator Bernie Sanders has a message for Speaker Johnson.

The No Kings Rally on October 18 is not a "hate America" rally.
It's a rally of millions of people who believe in American freedom.

Go to nokings.org and find a location near you to join the movement, 10/18.

The mainstream media loves making it seam like dysfunction in Washington is coming from both parties.

Hello?

Much of the GOP no longer accepts the rule of law, or the norms of democracy, or the legitimacy of the opposing party.

Enough of the false equivalence.

Robert De Niro: “Now we have a would-be king — King Donald the First. Fuck that. I’m Robert De Niro and I’m asking you to stand up and be counted in the nationwide No Kings protest on October 18th”

Trump’s Argentina bailout enriches one well-connected US billionaire A $20 billion US rescue package is a gift for a hedge fund manager with ties to Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent.

The US has finalized its $20 billion bailout for Argentina.

Too bad it only benefits one American: a billionaire hedge fund manager, who has placed large bets on the future of the Argentine economy.

The entire Trump administration is full of shit.

Me to @chrislhayes.bsky.social on the Comey and James and (probably imminent) Bolton prosecutions

"It doesn’t matter what your politics are. If you say he’s stupid, which he is, if you say he is wrong, which he is, if you say he’s a criminal or sleezy, which he is ... then you’re his enemy.”

Typos aside, there is simply no such thing.

ECGs are not an indicator of age.

They literally do not contain that information, either directly or indirectly.

This is just made up gobbledygook.

So, my question is: why?

$47. And that’s if the government isn’t lying about the interest rate. Plus, they will have to prove she intentionally schemed to swindle $47 from the bank - as opposed to just not knowing the difference between a second home and an investment property. Good luck, Lindsay.

Is it just me, or does it seem the press is actually and completely terrified to report about Donald Trump's physical and mental health the way it would have if anyone else were president?

Mike Johnson is upset we have the right to protest.

Thou Shalt Not Shoot Priests in the Head I shouldn’t have to say these things.

Thou shalt not shoot priests in the head. I shouldn’t have to say this.

Pam Bondi realizes she has liability in false prosecution of Letitia James.

Indicted And Innocent: How A Federal Charge Upends A Life If you think innocence protects you, read this.

If you think innocence protects you, you’re wrong.

An indictment doesn’t just accuse, it dismantles. Your savings, your reputation, your family’s peace. All of it goes on trial long before you ever step into a courtroom.

Here’s what most people don’t know.

The Trump Administration: White Supremacy in Action Clemency for violent white insurrectionists, mass deportations of non-criminal brown immigrants, arrests of Black officials, and a purge of diversity programs show a two-tiered system of justice.

...a two-tiered system of justice.
Donald Trump has made a career out of drawing lines—between insiders and outsiders, loyalists and enemies, those deserving of forgiveness and those marked for punishment. But

"I am going to eliminate crime!"
"Oh shit, you're going to fix wealth inequity, implement sweeping safety nets, end institutional racism, demolish for-profit prisons, shackle or destroy capitalism, change our two tiered justice system, and get rid of oligarchs?"
"No, silly; fascist surveillance."

1-3: What Dems failed to acknowledge, and still do, is that much like the justice system, we have a two-tiered economy.

Pointing at the stock market, when 95% of stocks are owned by the top 1% is unhelpful at best.

Same goes for inflation, antitrust, and labor.

Oversight Democrats have one message for Speaker Johnson: Stop the Shutdown, Release the Files!
