Suicide or not, this brave man put himself out there at great personal risk. Who wouldnโ€™t be depressed, angry, fearful, especially given the isolation such courage spawned? May we let this hero rest in peace. May we extend more support to those courageous whistleblowers who come after him.

This is sad news. Simon was a big help with this story that showed Howard Lutnick apparently lied about his business entanglement with Jeffrey Epsteinโ€”a story that deserves more attention. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

I donโ€™t give a damn if Theo Von and Joe Rogan change their tune and become full-out Democratic socialists. They will say whatever is deemed widely popular in the moment to retain their podcast audiences. They gave you Donald Trump.

Heโ€™s boycotting Walmart because theyโ€™re selling Obama jackets. Ohana is the Hawaiian word for family. Heโ€™s one of the people who didnโ€™t know thereโ€™s a โ€œBโ€ in dumb.

Serious question for Republicans: After seeing Mitch McConnell in this condition, what exactly is the argument for him continuing to serve Kentucky in the Senate?

desjen reposted

For 33 years, McConnell has voted against family and medical leave for working Americans. Then he disappears from the Senate for 92 days and keeps collecting his full paycheck. Apparently, paid leave is only a problem when someone else gets it.

โ€œDonโ€™t tell me that you remember Sept. 11, 2001. I remember Sept. 11, 2001. But I heard her say she was there that day. I was there that day. I donโ€™t remember seeing Hillary Clinton there.โ€ - Rudy Giuliani

The ultra-wealthy keep trying to pit the rest of us against each other with scare tactics ("communists!" "men in the ladies room!!" "brown people!!!" "drag queens!!!!") to keep us from noticing that our real problem is THEM. They want us to fight *any* warโ€”except a class war. Happy Labor Day.

EXCLUSIVE: The FBI just admitted it has over an hour of Epstein Files redaction training videos, and the FBI ignored my lawyer's directions for what to search for then hid it from us for 8 months. I'll tell you what they said today at NOON PT. Here's a link: www.muellershewrote.com/p/exclusive-...

A recent survey found that 92% of U.S. adults have delayed or avoided medical care due to high costs. Meanwhile, a new study from Yale estimates that Medicare for All would save over 114,000 lives and $1 trillion a year. If this country was truly โ€œpro-life,โ€ we would have universal healthcare.

beef got expensive because he tariffed beef. the fix is suspending his own tariff for 90 days, a window that closes right after the midterms. he's not making beef cheaper. he's lending you the lower price until the votes are counted, then taking it back.

Donald Trump just ruined any chance for Republicans to win the midterms. โ€œTRUMP: โ€œI donโ€™t want to hear about affordability.โ€ That quote should haunt Republicans all the way to Election Day.

Remember: There is nothing natural or inevitable about extreme inequality; itโ€™s the result of an economic system that values wealth and power over human dignity and justice. It doesn't have to be this way.
