A Reader

I don't think the country can ever be the same. Yes, he and his gang will be eventually gone. But his "people" will still be around. And it will be an impoverished nation, materially and spiritually.

Before I was a politician, I was a proud union member. I’m honored to stand with my union brothers and sisters on Labor Day and every day. In the Senate, I’ll fight to raise pay, lower costs, and empower Texas workers.

Flock cameras have no place in Texas. They can piece together an exact map of your behavior — the places you went and how long you were there. Flock calls this “pattern-of-life” mapping. Texans call it something else: government overreach.

Looking forward to stopping by @colbertlateshow.bsky.social one last time. Tune in tonight!

Taco And Iran will not open the Strait

The biggest story in the world right now is that the president of the United States is a demented old man who takes pleasure in torturing and killing people and is committing crimes with impunity. And yet most legacy media outlets are too cowardly to tell it like it is.

Let me just say that I truly admire the legendary Bruce Springsteen. He’s an incredibly talented artist, an actual American patriot, a fighter for democracy and a good human being.

Now they know what it’s like for contractors doing business with Trump Org over many decades.

Saying The Quiet Part Out Loud Dept.-Kinda sounds like he's admitting he interfered in the election with VERY specific statistics. I quit Twitter because he bought it, way before his confession he stole the election for the Orange Atrocity. 🍊💩 Now I'm SURE I made the right decision! 👍

Does anyone seriously believe anything he says here? Is it even remotely tenable to have a president whose statements are so erratic and lacking in credibility?

The real story… under any other president this would be jail time…

ONE WEEK FROM TODAY: March 28 will be the biggest protest in US history. Find your local No Kings event to make clear you're part of The Resistance to this regime’s brutality at home, pathetic ineptness, perpetual lying & their illegal war in Iran. ✊https://app.sosha.ai/s/39HA7UDd

More corruption in plain sight.

Putin must not have included this in his briefing...

He was certainly afraid of Vietnam-style combat in Vietnam.

I cannot adequately explain how fucked up the World Cup situation is wihen the president of a host nation *threatens the safety* of one of the participants (Iran). The USA should be removed as a host nation and if it's not, the games shoud be boycotted and ANYONE WITH A MORAL CENTER should see that.

Are we great again yet?

Stunning whirlpool galaxy and it's companion. Thank you for the photo. Would you like to tell us a little about Stand Up For Science? I support AFR. I love (passive) Astronomy and enjoy physics more widely too. Official NASA colour photo of M51. The interaction is spectacular.

Reverend Jesse Jackson called on each of us to be heralds of change, to be messengers of hope; to step forward and say “Send me” wherever we have a chance to make an impact. How fortunate we were that Jesse Jackson answered that call. What a great debt we owe to him.

Our campaign is surging. And Donald Trump should be scared shitless. Because when I’m in Congress, his presidency is over.

Kristi Noem needs to be arrested, not just fired.

Appreciate it, Elie. I really busted my ass to cover Trump's presser, live-posting half of it through bad wifi on a flight and then racing to an airport bar to get the rest. If you find value in my efforts, it would mean a lot to me if you signed up for my newsletter: www.publicnotice.co/subscribe

The Price of Mercy is a searing, compassionate, and utterly necessary book. Its insights are brilliant, its proposals pragmatic, and its potential impact on crime and punishment profound. It’s a must read.

Don't congratulate John Roberts or the Supreme Court. Congratulate Rick Woldenberg, the Chicago-area leader of Learning Resources, an educadtional toy company that had the courage to sue the president of the United States to save his family business. As well as everyone else who stepped up.

CBS and the FCC didn't want Stephen Colbert to broadcast his interview with Texas State Representative James Talarico, so he did it and uploaded to his YouTube channel. Watch it, share it around, since apparently the bad guys in charge don't want you to hear it: youtu.be/oiTJ7Pz_59A

Criminal president.

"The president should remove it." No. That should say, "The president should be removed."

Every day the racist, fascist, orange pedo pig in the WH manages to hit a new rock bottom. Photoshopped monkey heads on the Obamas is a level of racism and vileness, so deeply rooted in hatred like we’ve never seen before. Nothing intimidates or triggers Trump more than this beloved couple.

When I saw Liam at the Dilley Detention Center, something was clearly wrong. He was lethargic, not eating, and depressed. Thankfully, Liam and his dad are back home in Minneapolis with their family. No child should ever endure this. We will not stop until this cruelty ends.

To all the Minnesotans who are making their voices heard and protesting peacefully: The world is watching, and when change comes, it will be because of you.

It says something about this moment that this amazing Epstein drop today, shockful of Trump crimes, is not even one of the top 5 trends on Bluesky.

So the homicide was premeditated. Planned in advance. Agents knew they wanted to kill him, so they prepared for the opportunity and took it. Thanks for helping NYT.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

@jonrauch.bsky.social: If historians object that Trump is not a copy of Mussolini or Hitler or Franco, the reply is yes—but so what? Trump is building something new on old principles. He is showing us in real time what 21st-century American fascism looks like. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

"It wasn't Hitler, Goebbels, or Himmler who deported me, beat me, and shot my family. It was the shoemaker, the milkman, the neighbor, who were given a uniform and then thought they were the master race." -Karl Stojka, Auschwitz survivor

I’m running for Congress in NY-12, my home. We have a demented, criminal president running the country like a mob operation—government by the boss, for the boss. We need Democratic fighters who will defend the rule of law and deliver government by the people. Join us.
