You can't go to a grocery store anywhere in America right now without worrying about whether the produce is safe or not. And here's the nation's top health official doing a live TV interview about... covid.

Tim Walz spoke from the very start of the "No Kings" protest and did not mince his words! Despite the cold in Minnesota, this did not stop an enormous crowd of over 200,000 people from gathering to protest against the felon Trump and his racist, fascist regime. #ProudBlue #DV1

Be the second Greatest Generation. Show up tomorrow for No Kings and then fight like hell for a Democratic Congress. www.nokings.org bsky.app/profile/amer...

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Trump bragged about taking in hundreds of billions of dollars with his tariffs. His tariffs are a national sales tax - and that's hundreds of billions of YOUR dollars that he's bragging about taking.

If you are protesting today, remember to hashtag your state and city so others can find your protest, join you, and amplify your voices. Maximum visibility is key! Suggested tags: #3E #NoKings #50501Movement #indivisible #wearetheflood [hash tag state and city name]

Be safe and have fun out there at those peaceful patriotism parties today, y’all. Don’t forget to tag us in your pics of the best signs. #NoKings 🇺🇸

Deep in red Florida…. No kings rallies EVERYWHERE. My South Florida alone…Ft Lauderdale (my hometown) TWO, Hollywood, Miami, even the belly of the beast…WEST PALM BEACH! 😂

We are becoming a “papers, please” country, and no one should want that.

just go to the protests take whatever precautions you personally feel comfortable with but these are massive, joyful events, go and have fun

Jeffries: "It's shameful that Grijalva has not been sworn in because Johnson & House Republicans apparently want to continue to hide the Epstein files. It's my expectation if she is not sworn in today during the pro forma session, as the AZ AG has made clear, expect swift & decisive legal action."

The best way to fight this administration is peaceful protest in numbers. They want us to curl up in a ball and let them have their way. We must protest in numbers too big to ignore. See how you can make your voices heard …🔻 www.mobilize.us/nokings/c/no...

🚨🚨 New Jersey voters today is October 14th and the LAST DAY TO REGISTER! #SheShed

two men were taken at a bakery by armed and masked federal agents in Cicero, Illinois this morning while having coffee before work. we were there moments later. Trump says they’re going after the “worst of the worst” around Chicago. that’s not what we saw. youtu.be/EkCcsaFdpsw?...

Jeffries: This is the second time it's been shut down under Donald Trump, and he's nowhere to be found. He's got time to be on the golf course, but apparently doesn't have time to sit down with Democrats to reopen the government.

Please understand that This is Trump regime explaining how they will use the government to prosecute Democrats. Page 1 of the fascist playbook is imprison political opponents so that the fascist has one party rule.

This is the President not only purporting to arrogate unto himself the ability to “take away free speech rights,” but also to do so for speech because it “aggravates and irritates.” The bottom line is these people running our country are literally foreigners to the concept of democracy.

This is an important story! All the facts we know so far. open.substack.com/pub/theweekl...

1. More Americans work at the Cheesecake Factory than in the entire coal industry, and that won't change. It's because of automation, not snooty libs. 2. Coal energy is now more expensive than wind and solar. 3. So this means: higher energy prices, more pollution, no jobs benefit. Genius!

Minnesota’s soybean farmers produced a bumper crop this year, just to find out they have nowhere to sell their harvest thanks to Trump’s trade policies. I’ll keep standing with our farmers to advocate for an end to these reckless tariffs. wjon.com/minnesota-so...

Pritzker: "In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists & protesters when unprovoked what would we call it? If officials marched down streets harassing civilians & demanding their papers, what would we say? I don't think we'd have trouble calling it what it is: authoritarianism"

This is OpenAI attempting to force the law to develop in their chosen direction. Opt-out is simply not how American copyright law is currently structured.

🚨This is a big deal: suburban chicago police launch an investigation into an ICE attack on local CBS news journalists.

Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries are prepared to roll over to avoid a shutdown. That cannot happen, because it is exactly what Trump wants. Now is the time to fight. Call their offices and tell them. @schumer.senate.gov : (202) 224-6542 @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social : (202)-225-5936

Look at the anger she's beating back to stay civil. Rep Ann Johnson - TX is one of my favorite reps now. www.youtube.com/shorts/GCcdd...

I gotta get me one of these signs

You know one thing I always wondered about.. The National Enquirer reports about Alien babies, celebrity women with illnesses & democratic politicians. They talk about everything under the sun except Jeffrey Epstein sex trafficking children to billionaires. Weird huh?! #USDemocracy #TasteOfHisOwnMed

Bonjour Finding your peace in the water, my wonderful friends! 🌞😀😊🤗 @poofer.bsky.social @mysageadvice.bsky.social @oneserenitynow.bsky.social @sierraheart.bsky.social @suewho82.bsky.social

🔥 RICHARD MASSEY: “No one here in MEMPHIS asked for military occupation… this is not a war on crime, it’s a war on the working class… we know better than to sign off on our city becoming a blueprint for authoritarianism.”

Honoured to welcome Irish Taoiseach Micheál Martin to Ottawa today. As one of nearly five million Canadians with Irish roots, I know the opportunities our partnership has created. Together, we’re deepening those ties — for greater prosperity on both sides of the Atlantic.

Illegally releasing military records for politics threatens every veteran. Instead of supporting our service members, the GOP is complicit as our veterans get screwed and our military is politicized. Their hostility towards those who served will cost them. We'll ensure that.

There is no world in which it is normal for the president to publicly call upon his attorney general to hurry up and prosecute his political foes. It’s like the Watergate tapes but posted on social media. Let’s get a grip on what’s happening here.

Reading includes a wide range of benefits, Professor Thomsen said, including the promotion of well-being and empathy for different perspectives. “It’s a problem if people don’t read books,” he said, “because that’s where people are confronted with complex ideas.” www.nytimes.com/2025/08/21/w...

Let me just say a simple thing. Democrats have no obligation to provide the votes to fund the destruction of our democracy. If you want my vote for a bipartisan budget, there need to be protections to stop Trump's brazen lawlessness.
