Your regular reminder: If the Russians stop fighting, the war ends. If the Ukrainians stop fighting, their land will be occupied, their leaders will be killed, their history and language will be erased, their children will be kidnapped to serve Russia.

Can we get 500 or so of this guy running our government? We’d really be great then.

The best sermon is the one you live. I preached this morning. But my real sermon happened across Texas this week, as our campaign collected 20,000 pounds of groceries for our neighbors. As scripture says, “faith without works is dead.”

AI is scary, especially without guardrails. Just think about the techbros -who they are, how they act, what they say about the rest of us -and it’s glaringly obvious why they need oversight and regulation.

🚨 NEW: The AI oligarchs are betting you won't care until it's too late. They are racing to build artificial superintelligence with zero federal safety rules. Congress just introduced a bill to stop them, but it dies without your pressure. Prove them wrong: 👇 actionnetwork.org/letters/tell...

“40,000 🇨🇦 Canadian Soldiers, 153 of whom died, fought with us after 911. They weren’t attacked. WE were attacked, but they sent their troops to go fight with us.” The way the Felon has treated our Canadian friends, we are not worthy of their friendship. His actions are disgusting and disgraceful.

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.

Talarico organized a grocery drive for Texans. What did Paxton do? He was busy schmoozing with GOP big-wigs. Talarico understands the needs of Americans. He is the clear choice for Texas. This November, tell Paxton to go home, permanently. #momsky#sheshed

Corporate America’s playbook: 1) Exploit workers to maximize profits 2) Use profits to buy Congress 3) Use Congress to pass union-busting laws 4) Use union-busting laws to further exploit workers 5) Rinse and repeat How we break this cycle? Build back a powerful labor movement.

We the people are tired of paying our taxes to enrich billionaires. #WorkingForThePeople

I met a grandmother in Houston. Augusta works 10-hour shifts at the airport, but her wages don’t cover her basic expenses. Now she and her 5-year-old grandson are facing eviction. In the United States Senate, we’re going to have Augusta’s back.

Why do you appreciate unions? I’ll start: Weekends off Paid vacations Work breaks Sick leave Paid holidays No child labor Safer working conditions Health care and retirement benefits

They are terrified and f people voting. Unsurprising. Voter disenfranchisement is traditionally the only way Republicans can win. Especially since everyone HATES their policies. Except the billionaires. That should really tell us something.

🚨 TEXAS: THEY’RE TRYING TO CLOSE 92 ELECTION DAY POLLING PLACES Tarrant County officials are set to vote TODAY on cutting Election Day voting locations from 316 to 224, nearly 1 in 3 polling places gone. Civil rights groups warn the cuts could disproportionately burden Black, Latino & Asian voters

This cannot be understated! Vance is Peter Rgiel’s boy and will fight to advance the agenda of the Nerd Reich.

Jack Hopkins-The Original@therealjackhopkins.bsky.social

JD Vance wants you to know he’s focused on doing God’s work. See, this is why I’m Agnostic. When there’s a supposed all powerful God, but I’m constantly having to do his work… Yeah…maybe they should re-examine that “all powerful” line. JD Vance is a con man. He’s focused on doing TECH BROS work.

I just love this for Trump. It’s like his good friend Jeff Epstein will be with him! 💕

Alt National Park Service@altnps.bsky.social

This is awesome! Someone is taking the Epstein files on the road. The “Donald J. Trump and Jeffrey Epstein Memorial Reading Room” is launching a national tour Sept. 8 in Dallas, just ahead of the Republican midterm convention, where Trump is expected to appear.

We are intentionally terrorizing and killing people. That’s what.

Let’s see if the public servants want to be surveilled all the time. No? Special blocking of surveillance for Important People? There’s a list of excluded people and properties? Hmmm. If billionaires can expect privacy, why can’t we?

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.

The lesson of history is that tyrants cannot be appeased. Appeasement only feeds their insatiable hunger for power. Tyrants prey on people who feel unsafe and vulnerable. But without mass submission, a tyrant is powerless. Remember this.

He’s not present and voting, which is a net win. Also…The billionaire-owned media is not working for the people anymore. The only 3rd Estate is Independent, now.

Mark T. Sneed@marktsneed.bsky.social

On this I cannot disagree. Mainstream media and legacy media have been bought and paid for and are willing turning a blind eye to an obvious coverup. No one is willing to go to the hospital and find out the truth? Shameful.

Another reason to continue the Target boycott.

Robert Reich@rbreich.bsky.social

Target paid its CEO $21.8M last year — 794x the median Target worker's pay of $27,506. Target has also spent $13.9B on stock buybacks since 2019, while remaining among the largest employers of Medicaid and SNAP recipients in America. This is what I mean by a rigged economy.

We are projected to spend $268 BILLION on deportations — costing the average American taxpayer about $2,358 (according to @epi.org). But somehow we “can’t afford” to make sure hungry children can eat or ensure everyone, no matter their income, can access healthcare. Priorities.

This is how our government has been corrupted: 1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office 2) Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor 3) Donors make huge profit 4) Repeat We must get big money out of politics. It is the root of our dysfunction.

The massive nationwide electricity rate hikes aren’t happening simply because utility services have gotten more expensive or customers have been receiving better service. It’s because utility monopolies have bought off the system that’s supposed to keep them in check. Watch.

Why isn’t the billionaire-owned media asking Abdul about his Medicare for All Plan? Because billionaires don’t think the rest of us deserve healthcare 🤷🏻‍♀️

But he’s not voting, so they’re one vote down. Completely unrelated, does Mitch have a sister?

Mrs. Betty Bowers@mrsbettybowers.bsky.social

Mitch McConnell is dead. The burden to prove otherwise rests with the GOP, not us. Let’s proceed accordingly.

The richest man owns X. The second and fourth richest men control Google. The third richest man owns The Washington Post. The sixth richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. And now the seventh richest could soon take over both Paramount and Warner Bros. See the problem here?

LThe HHS Secretary described uncovering hospices where patients were enrolled but, in his words, never died. "Typically, if you go to a hospice, you leave within 18 days because your dying is terminal," Kennedy said, describing what he framed as a fraud scheme in Los Angeles.
