This is the resistance I have been waiting for.

Thank you on this labor day!!

And these are the silent ones who vote for this mess, or two or three Republicans who aren’t running again?

You misspelled “Reich.”

I’ve sometimes joined local demonstrations. When someone gives the group the finger, people smile and wave and laugh. Good to remember that mockery and humor are powerful weapons.
Also dancing.

The stats showing a huge decline in violent crime and homicide in D.C. last year were put out just the other day by the FBI, which is run by Kash Patel.

Certainly possible, given what he’s doing in Year One.

In first reports I heard that bombing was described in a passive voice “Catholic church was bombed” without reference to agency: Who did the bombing?? Was this timidity?

"You must condemn this thing that you never said" is a bitch move.

I just heard Sean Patrick Maloney on MSNBC say the Dems need to offer something. He then mentioned massive housing, minimum wage and freaking “putting a man [sic] on Mars” and giving every returning veteran a muscle car.

Apparently if you give your concentration camp a cutesy name and sell merch for it much of the media will treat it like a kinda fun story.

Are Democratic senators using the small amount of power they have to block judicial nominations?

🚨 The U.S. armed forces are nonpartisan and should remain that way.

And yet: Trump & friends stood before a carefully selected group of uniformed soldiers at Ft. Bragg, while describing 🇺🇸 citizens as enemy threats to our union.

He's radicalizing our troops against us, & he WILL get people killed!

That shove is such a specific reaction.

With all that kit, he shouldn’t care if someone gets in his face, especially if they are unarmed. Soldiers are disciplined like that.

The fact sis got under his skin like that shows these are just bullies cosplaying Call of Duty characters.

Not the point. She’s a US Senator. That’s a serious and dangerous position.

You mean the guy who fills stadiums in red states? That Bernie? The one that sounds like Larry David?

Although it’s a hard contest.

A perfect example. Try British papers or Reuters.

Headlines almost invariably understate the craziness and inappropriateness of the subject. Many people only skim the first paragraph and too often the alarm bell is buried in paragraph 17. Both sides-ism and sanewashing.

This budget proposal will make your life worse.

Call your elected officials and oppose it.

Leadership.

Cancer survivor here. I only survived because of a novel treatment that had just been made available at my time of diagnosis.

This disinvestment in research is absolutely disgraceful.

When the HHS Secretary is telling the American public that trusting expert scientists is not a function of democracy, it’s well and truly over for science in the USA.

I can’t stress this enough. If scientific expertise is believed to be an enemy to democracy, we are finished. Complete catastrophe.

Thank you, Mark.

US job growth hasn’t been this slow since Covid. Trump’s policies could chill it further | CNN Business It all comes down to the job market.

Trump took Biden’s economy with a 3% GDP growth rate and turned it into a shrinking economy within just 1 month.

Wormtongue?

It looks very much like the Department of Homeland Security memo seeking to revoke Ozturk's visa copied language directly from the Canary Mission website. Is DHS just following the "deport list" from an anonymous website? donmoynihan.substack.com/p/the-attack...

Happy Thursday.
