South Park's episode brutally mocking Trump had their highest ratings for a season opener since 1999.

“We just want answers. There’s no transparency. There’s none. [They are trying] to clear all this up by interviewing the trafficker? That’s the solution? We are so post-truth… That would be truly horrific. If there are videos, I want to know.“

He straight up, deliberately lies about demonstrable facts (the jobs revision happened before not after the election and Trump called it out at the time!) and no reporter challenges him on it. No
Sunday show host challenged his officials about his lies. He gets away with it.

Oof! Sucks to be pedo adjacent.

A serious study from a Harvard University political scientist presents a statistic worth remembering: Around the world, once 3.5% of the population became engaged in sustained, non-violent campaigns of resistance, change has always happened.Democracy is inevitable, when the people are determined.

An Israeli drone chases a British Doctors Without Borders worker to his doorstep and kills him and his family after entering the house.

Israel you have lost 😞

Fuck this asshole 🖕🏼

That people can be sent to a concentration camp for overstaying a visa but the organizer of the largest sex trafficking operation of my lifetime is transferred to a low-security prison—with yoga!—says a lot about the perverse priorities of this country.

Crockett: My former colleagues from the Texas House—decided to get the hell out of Texas… breaking quorum is where they’re at right now. And they didn’t just do it by themselves—they went to Illinois, where there is a governor that gives a damn. This fight is going to take all of us.

The situation at the immigration detention center known as “Alligator Alcatraz” has gotten so bad that detainees have been on a hunger strike for over ten straight days.

And history will burn their reputations with their names into the punchlines those Trump enablers deserve.
Plenty of us will live long enough to see their fall.
They reap the contempt they earned.
As hated as is Trump, they too will have children& grandchildren who are lying about their relationship

LET’S GOOOO!!!!

Shoutout to TX Legislators for STOPPING the vote on Trump’s gerrymandering war

Now, it’s time for blue states to create their maps to gerrymander Republicans out their seats without mercy

Trump wanted this war, Democrats will FINISH IT

FIGHT 🔥 WITH 🔥

When you care about something deeply, & you see it going horrifically wrong, exhaustion is inevitable. But I've found the best antidote to exhaustion is engagement, participation, standing up, speaking out, staying strong, rallying, marching, protesting ... engaging.

Come on friends, let's roll.

“After Senate leaders failed to fast-track more of President Trump's nominees before recess, Republicans are vowing to change the rules when they return in September, Axios' Stef Kight and Stephen Neukam report. Why it matters: Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) refused to back down from his demands. Trump ultimately gave Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.) cover to let his fatigued conference go home and reset yesterday evening— setting the stage for a renewed fight this fall. ⚖️ Zoom in: Senate Republicans are eyeing rules changes to counter Democrats' stonewalling of civil nominee confirmations. It's unclear what exact changes they'll pursue. Some options include eliminating procedural votes; shortening debate time; voting on nominees en bloc; or shortening the list of positions requiring confirmation. Recess appointments — mentioned again yesterday — remain another path forward. After days of heated arguments among lawmakers, Trump seemed to permit senators to head home for the scheduled break on Truth Social, where he also said Schumer should "GO TO HELL!" Via Truth Social”

👏🏻Give @schumer.senate.gov credit when he deserves it. And here he deserves it. 👏🏻

Schumer refused to buckle in nomination fight vs Trump & his senate bootlickers and Republicans gave in.

More of this please. Even Axios couldn’t spin this for Republicans www.axios.com/newsletters/...

My Democratic colleagues and I just left the state of Texas to break quorum and stop Trump’s redistricting power grab.

Trump is trying to rig the midterm elections right before our eyes. But first he’ll have to come through us.

It’s time to fight back.

Imagine denigrating resources that actively solve our addiction to fossil fuels. Oh that’s right , sadly you don’t have to imagine. Samuel L. Jackson always says the muther-f*cking right thing.

Experts Raise Concerns Over Trump’s White House Ballroom Renovation Plans President Trump plans to build a $200 million ballroom off the East Wing “long before” the end of his term in 2029.

I don't even know what to say. To Trump voters, I would say $200m that is a total waste is really going to get those grocery prices down, you morons.

SUFFER.

Our Wins Of The Week This week, Democrats had a huge 2026 candidate recruitment victory, as Governor Roy Cooper of North Carolina jumped into the race for the U.S.

If Trump was hoping the Epstein headlines would die down and his approval ratings would climb, this wasn’t his week. If Democrats were hoping for a strong start to Roy Cooper's Senate campaign, they got their wish. And if you’re in the mood for some applause-worthy wins, this Week In Wins delivers.

Obama pushes back on Trump's 'outrageous' and 'bizarre' treason claim A spokesperson for the former president called Trump's claim that Obama tried to rig the 2016 election "a weak attempt at a distraction."

You know. If you leave Obama alone, you probably won't hear much from him but when you manufacture evidence to frame him, you bring on a level of disgust from him and all of the rest of us.

The new Director of the Bureau of Labor Statistics, John Barron, has revised the jobs numbers for the last three months up from 106,000 jobs to "seventy trillion billion jobs."

Hi from Greenland everyone ✌️!
I’m a bit busy guiding our red sails tours here these days so I don’t post much, but I thought I’d share a little glimpse from yesterday night sailing ⛵️🧊.
That’s shot around 12pm…

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/January...
"On January 6, 2021, the United States Capitol in Washington, D.C., was attacked by a mob[39][40][41] of supporters of President Donald Trump in an attempted self-coup,[42] two months after his defeat in the 2020 presidential election..."

Wealthy people with no problems, invent problems to have.

Because they don't know what normal problems are, the problems they come up with to have are guaranteed to be *abnormal* problems. Problems normal people do not have, and do not worry about.
