The utter stupidity of pursuing a criminal trial against someone for throwing a sandwich that bounced off a bullet proof vest pissing away hundreds of thousands of dollars for this joke is the perfect encapsulation of this Administration.

Why does everyone keep calling it “The Epstein Ballroom?” Please stop repeating “The Epstein Ballroom” because it is not called “The Epstein Ballroom!” Don’t tell the news that it’s called “The Epstein Ballroom” and please don’t repost this!!!!!

We have learned nothing

pour one out for george soros and the brutal writer’s cramp he must have from signing all those checks

My Rep.

The important question here is “who was that staff member?” Because the way she just continued to do her job, unfazed and with with no fear, throwing down facts and corrections? damn, put her on a ticket. She’s got my vote.

If our troops and other federal workers aren't getting paid during the shutdown, neither should Members of Congress.

Until we pass a law to fix this, I'll be refusing my pay while the government is shut down.

Hundreds of Alligator Alcatraz detainees drop off the grid after leaving site As of the end of August, the whereabouts of two-thirds of more than 1,800 men detained at Alligator Alcatraz during the month of July could not be determined by the Miami Herald.

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

Instead of writing an essay explaining to the Croatian Ministry of the Interior why I want citizenship, I’m just going to link to Trump’s address to the UN.

My first thought.

We are living The Hunger Games and they are trying to reason with the Wizard behind the curtain. Maybe if we all start doing The Time Warp we can get leadership in the right groove. A jump to the left, a step to the right…but maybe leave out the pelvic thrust.

Calls to mind Father Charles Coughlin during WW2.

We say the same thing all the time. We bought in 2017 with interest rates at 4%. Within two years our house appreciated out of our affordability range. We were just so lucky.

Proud and grateful that you’re my Rep. Great town hall - thank you.

As I make the jump to hyperspace, I realize I left the baby on top of the ship.

I’m going to quit the internets for the rest of the day because this is by far the best thing that I’m going to read here. My work is done.

On the trans side, I think it’s exhaustion from the hypocrisy.

Omg I’ve been screaming this into the abyss for months!!!

Katamine has a VERY short half life

This happens to my wife all the time and rarely to me. We walk about the same amount. I think you are probably, like she is, approachable and also have a vibe of competency.

Do they even need to bother recruiting?

I don’t think I’ve ever seen the Democratic Party be so arrogantly obtuse about the will of its constituents.
Stand the F@#! Up you cowards!
#goodTrouble

How can we get our representatives to understand that we do not want them exhibit decorum and a willingness to get along - We want them to Resist. Obstruct. Deny. At every turn. The cowardice is exhausting to those of us powerless to exhibit bravery in any meaningful way.

Your silence will not protect you.

Dear Elected Democrats:

Will the real John Fetterman please stand up? They say a good man is hard to find. But why is it so hard to find/call/email a politically ambiguous senator like John Fetterman (D-Pa.)?

He’s unreachable. www.pghcitypaper.com/news/will-th...

@deluzio.house.gov, THANK YOU for staffing your office to answer calls from constituents!
I’m proud to have canvassed for you!

Called my senators (@fetterman.senate.gov and @davemccormick.bsky.social ) and representative (@deluzio.house.gov) yesterday about Ukraine. DeLuzio’s office was the only one to pick up (second ring, wonderful experience). Someone please primary Fetterman. I would not be mad if it were DeLuzio.

In an Age of Right-Wing Populism, Why Are Denmark’s Liberals Winning? Around the world, progressive parties have come to see tight immigration restrictions as unnecessary, even cruel. What if they’re actually the only way for progressivism to flourish?

Roadmap?
