Mrs. Miller complains that Dems want to [checks her highlighted passage] prosecute those who committed federal crimes

this is fucking appalling. i already knew james dolan (who owns the knicks and madison square garden) was a douche but this is next-level. www.nytimes.com/athletic/771...

Dear Survivor, Enough with the live chickens.

This is Tommy. Tommy had a question about my allegiances. Listen to the end to hear about his.

I swear to god the administration is going down the list of reasons pundits said it wasn’t fascism and doing them all one by one

That part

Yes, yes, the authoritarian president is leading a hate-filled rally in which he urges his followers to physically assault protesters but do NOT call any of these people Nazis or you will make David Brooks sad.

A new low for the Trump administration: raiding the home of a U.S. congresswoman weeks out from Election Day. This is the latest in a series of bigoted and unfounded attacks against my friend @ilhanmn.bsky.social. Ilhan is a fighter who will not back down. I am proud to stand with her.

(waggling my eyebrows sexily at Washington State and California)

I understand you need money for ads and infrastructure. But the fact that stories about election success always starts with “do they have enough money?” Should really alarm everyone. It’s not about the message it’s just about how much money you have

This is so dangerous! President Trump is deliberately inciting race hatred against an ethnic minority, calling on the people of Minnesota to "fight back" against "Somali immigrants." This must be a terrifying moment for the Somali community (who are overwhelmingly US citizens).

Marco Rubio has a meltdown when asked about Kimberly Guilfoyle: "I'm not playing this game ... you guys are not gonna be our only source of information in the world. I'm sorry to tell you that. No... I don't even know if what you're reporting is true." (It's true! The Journal has her text messages!)

Matthew Shepard was twenty-one years old. He was gentle and kind. On this night in 1998, he lay tied to a wooden fence for eighteen hours under the bright Wyoming stars. Not for any crime he committed. He lay there, alone and cold, simply for existing as a gay man.

The President of the United States, in front of a crowd of his supporters, during a televised rally, admits to a Quid Pro Quo pardon, which is a felony and impeachable offence. And absolutely nothing will happen, because his party, which controls congress, are fascist collaborators and sycophants.

Spare me with Tom Tillis and his rebrand tour. Watch as more Republicans try to convince you all that they have risen above the pettiness. They all co-signed Trump’s policies and behavior until it became politically unpopular or they are leaving office.

This. This is important. They’re hoping fear will hold us back because they don’t have the numbers. But it will make us stronger. It will bring people out.

"No Jewish person in NYC is responsible for actions of Israel... critique of genocide is not antisemitic... we need a politics of humanity, not just at home but for people we're bombing." @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social tells Theo Von the genocide must stop & Bibi should be arrested

Rep. Garcia promises an Oversight Committee more aggressive than anything voters have seen, starting with the Trump family, ICE & DHS abuses, corporate corruption, & Epstein survivors. Whether anyone answers for any of it comes down to who wins November 3 😏 #PayToPlayPresident

We’re making all Meidas+ news updates completely paywall-free through the midterm elections. Quality information shouldn’t be locked away right now. This may hurt our business, but some things are more important. Spread the word and join us: meidasplus.com

🚨BREAKING: Key federal agencies failed to provide any records to back up President Donald Trump’s allegations that tens of thousands of noncitizens are registered to vote in various blue states, a nonpartisan government watchdog said in a new lawsuit. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Billionaires are vacuuming up all the wealth, while workers get screwed. They’re laughing in our faces while Trump steals from us and builds a ballroom. (H/T @qasimrashid.com)

Can’t do student loan relief. Can’t mandate vaccines. Can’t help home owners. Can commit human rights abuses.

Pay attention guys And spread the word ..

We actually don't hate this administration enough

NEWS — Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear criticizes fellow Democrats who say transgender athletes should be barred from women’s sports. “That is not the party that we are. We start as a party of compassion and empathy.”

“Paid for by the U.S. Government.” That’s you and me, folks…

Once again, the Supreme Court prioritizes imaginary harms done to Trump by not allowing him to indulge in his conspiracy theories, as opposed to the very real harm done to citizens who may lose the ability to vote in this case.

This is the Stolen Neighbors Quilt. Each of the 11,000 squares represents a person taken by ICE in Minnesota.

As always, my advice is: If you see a poll that worries you, roll up your sleeves and get to work. Donate, register, volunteer. And if you see a poll you like? Go to the same things.

“You were arrested for marijuana?” Byron Donalds: “Yeah.” “You were arrested for bank fraud?” Byron Donalds: “Yeah.”

If you're a Dem who thinks you'll gain something by going anti-trans, look at Gallup's "most important problem" and Fox News' "most important issue" polling and see where trans issues rank. Whoever told you going anti-trans is a savvy or necessary move spends too much time on X and should be fired.

🚨BREAKING: California enacts new safeguards aimed at blocking potential election interference by Trump in the midterms. The laws make illegal ballot seizures and certain efforts to disrupt mail voting felonies.

Congress can’t indict people. They can have hearings and impeachment trials. But not criminal trials. Please don’t expect criminal trials and then blame democrats when you don’t get them. Midterms are step one. We have to win in 2028 and add seats to SCOTUS to hold people criminally accountable.

I’m on a quiz show that only tapes 46 days a year and even I think this schedule is a little light.

Medicare for All means we will no longer be nickeled and dimed by corporations who exist specifically to hold our healthcare dollars and pay out as little as possible.

Ossoff: "Our whole government made a corrupt tool of one man's vengeance and power and wealth ... in one month, Athens, we will vote to rebuke him so decisively, no president will dare such abuses again for centuries!"

"Johnson is so slavishly devoted to Trump, you might as well call him “Igor” .. Well before Trump slithered back into the Oval Office, Johnson allowed the House .. to become a vestigial appendage, submissive entirely to the will of a criminal defendant." Great Saturday read:

🧵The Trump administration is required by law to provide legal representation for children detained by ICE. In early August, HHS awarded a no bid contract worth $158m to Our Rescue. 12 of 24K detained kids have gotten representation since, per @11thhourmsnow.bsky.social

While all the empty seats are fun to point out, remember he had many empty rallies and look how that turned out. Focus on the vile messaging and failures

Really looking forward to the reactionary centrists and legacy media denouncing this and demanding that every GOP elected they interview reacts to it for the next several months. JKLOL. That obviously won't happen.

Trump is breaking ground on his 250-foot vanity arch before he even has final approval, all while a veterans’ lawsuit to stop it is still pending in court. Construction 20 hours a day, for years, at the gates of Arlington where we have buried our nation’s heroes. Absolutely disgraceful.

Please help amplify the fact that federal enforcement is not allowed anywhere near voting locations. Many people are understandably worried about ICE harassment and don't know that by law, ICE can't be there!

Jesus Christ, this. Platner was given the benefit of the doubt despite having a fucking Totenkopf tattoo on his own skin, while many of the same people are demanding El-Sayed answer for any random comment from anyone who supports him.

Awful. Just awful. A promising young man, a high school honors grad who joined JROTC and dreamed of becoming a doctor, killed himself because of the Trump admin’s obsession with hurting Haitians and the humiliating shame of an ICE ankle monitor. His blood is on their hands.

We're deep into Mad King territory here and yet there will still be people on the Sunday shows today pretending that the president isn't a mentally deranged despot

I think maybe Democrats should be trashing this guy and not a twitch streamer

We are a broken nation. Hundreds of thousands of Haitians were living and working legally, paying taxes, and contributing. Haiti remains wholly unsafe. But Trump hates Haitians, and the White House wanted videos of Black people in chains, so they stripped them of status and turned on the cameras.

BREAKING: Liam Tadeo was just deported by ICE.
