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* war—except a class war. Happy Labor Day.

PabloReports: What do you make of Trump saying Americans who oppose data centers are backwards and poor? AOC: I mean, how about we put one in Mar-a-Lago? I love that. Let’s put a data center at Mar-a-Lago, and we’ll see how backwards and poor he is in response to that.

This is absolutely bananas. Trump says we’re suspending exercises with South Korea because of his “really good relationship” with Kim Jong-un. North Korea is nuclear-armed, threatens South Korea, and is actively helping Russia wage war against Ukraine.

Ukrainian intelligence confirms what many laypeople on BlueSky had already suspected: Russia is using satellites to help Iran target American bases in the Middle East. And Donald Trump will do *nothing* about this because he cares about Putin far more than he cares about American troops.

Florida resident who illegally ran to be an Alabama senator should shut his stupid pie hole about people getting senate seats illegally.

Tuberville: "We probably have four or five senators that didn't legally win. They shouldn't be up here."

This is quite clearly a total lie. The story quotes a "draft press release." This is why we meed to support independent pro-democracy media rather than the stenographers for the administration. Begin by subscribing to Democracy Docket. bit.ly/4qmEiFz

Hundreds of thousands of Albanians have been protesting for over a week to revolt against their corrupt govt as well as criminal slumlord traitor Jared Kushner and Crimestress Ivanka for plotting to seize their land. Americans could learn a thing or two on how it’s done.

Despite having an office of hundreds of attorneys, Ken Paxton has frequently opted for private lawyers — many to whom he has personal or political ties — to argue on behalf of Texas. One attorney cost taxpayers more than $24,000 for a day’s work. (Published July 2025 w/ @texastribune.org)

Don’t let last night’s attack be weaponized into silence. Speaking truth to power and demanding accountability from our leaders isn’t dangerous rhetoric, it’s the foundation of democracy. We can condemn violence and also demand accountability from our leaders.

Senate Republicans are spending their weekend lying about the SAVE Act and attacking the right to vote. If you want to know where this bill came from, what is does and why the GOP is so desperate to pass it, read what I wrote. Then share it with others. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/the-...

democracydocket.comThe SAVE Act started as a political stunt. Now it's a real threat.As we entered 2026, it became clear that Republicans were set up to lose control of Congress in the midterm elections. What followed was predictable.

He’s flailing. He’s leading the country—and the world—toward catastrophe. When incompetence mixes with arrogance, the result is dangerous for everyone.

The dude is circling the drain. He’s now calling on people in media to be imprisoned for treason if they don’t report on the war to his liking.

“This is what media complicity looks like. Not just cheerleading for military action, or embedding with the troops, but failing to ask the most basic questions beforehand, chief among them: “Is this even legal?” Me on Trump, Iran and media failures for this morning’s Zeteo First Draft newsletter:

So the United States will only use empty warehouses to house people it wants to terrorize, not people it wants to shelter from the cold. We really are not a very good-natured country.

Regulations are what keeps ordinary Americans healthy and, often, alive. It took spoiled meat and rodent droppings out of our food. It took harmful lead out of our gasoline and paint. It took poison out of our water. Deregulation only achieves one goal: making rich corporations richer.
