Brett Meiselas: "Donald Trump, Elon Musk, JD Vance — their actions toward Ukraine are frankly far worse than the actions that Donald Trump got impeached for in 2019 by extorting Ukraine. This is a whole other level."

🚨 EXCLUSIVE: No Kings organizer Ezra Levin SOUNDS ALARM after Meta suspended the movement’s Instagram during nationwide protests. LEVIN: “We might be seeing something similar from Meta in our country right now.” “We're not gonna stop organizing against this regime.”

Before I knew Dennis Hastert as a child molester, I knew him as the Republican who, during Katrina, reviewed aerial footage of the Ninth Ward of New Orleans and said, on camera, when he knew people were watching, "Well, we can just bulldoze all those houses, put up hotels."

🚨 MAJOR NEWS: Reps. Thomas Massie and Ro Khanna say they have now secured commitments for all 218 signatures needed to force a House vote on Epstein Files Transparency Act II.

When MAGA talks about “family values,” I didn’t realize they mean “Manson Family values.”

You say it’s not a genocide? When you’re debating semantics, you’ve already lost the debate.

JD Vance saying “We were tired of being called racists for noticing that our country was becoming dirtier and poorer, and less safe and less prosperous” is literally the most racist thing I’ve ever heard a VP say.

Diesel hit a record $6.06 a gallon. Here is how that lands at home. Fuel costs more, so the truck that brings your groceries costs more, so the store raises prices.

There's only one word to describe MAGA Republicans: Cowards. They will criticize Trump in private and then vote for his ridiculous wars in public. The American people deserve leaders with a backbone.

For years, New Yorkers have demanded access to City records about the lasting health impacts of the horrific September 11th attacks. For years, they have been denied and ignored. That ends today. nyc.gov/sept11docs

Two years ago Trump stood behind a table of groceries and promised to bring prices down. Reuters checked those exact items: coffee is up nearly 23%, beef 19.2%, apples 14%. A pound of ground roast coffee cost $7.02 his inauguration month. It averages $9.32 now. #Groceries

Prior approval means your insurance company decides whether to cover care before your doctor gives it. The AMA asked 1,000 doctors. 95% said it delays needed care. 79% said patients give up on treatment. 26% said it caused a serious harm, including hospitalization, permanent injury or death.

So…they’ve actually started carrying Nazi flags… Now is it OK to call them fascists?

So…they’ve actually started calling black women “ghetto black bitches”… Now is it OK to call them racists?

A pre-existing condition is any health problem you had before you signed up. Before the ACA (Obamacare), an insurer could do three things: refuse you outright, charge you far more, or sell you a plan that covered everything except the thing you actually have.

A place where the king can just decide to change the names of things used to exist only in fairy tales.

A for-profit hospital slashed costs. Then a patient froze to death on its roof.

As would stealing money and bestiality.

Trump’s speech in front of NASA astronauts went so badly you could practically hear a pin drop.

Canadian commentator @deanblundell.bsky.social absolutely unloads on Trump in an interview with @macfarlanenews.bsky.social: “We’re laughing at him. We’re mocking him… This is not a serious man. This is not a serious president.” He says Trump's become a “caricature” in Canada with “nowhere to go.”

Why did 4.1 million fewer people visit America? Ask our allies. Canada, the UK, Germany, Denmark, Finland, Ireland and the Netherlands all revised their travel advisories after their own citizens were detained at our border. Germany warns a valid visa no longer guarantees entry.

Trump reported 1,051 trades in his June disclosure. These two stood out: — June 18: Bought $250K–$500K in Boeing, the same day the Navy awarded Boeing an $880 million contract — June 23: Bought $15K–$50K in SpaceX, the same day NASA recorded a $425.6 million award to SpaceX

IOWA: CURRENT FACTS Republicans have controlled Iowa’s governorship and House since 2011 and the Senate since 2017. CANCER ❌ 2nd-highest cancer incidence rate in America ❌ One of only three states where cancer incidence is rising

Tens of thousands of Alaska voters made their voices heard in our open primary election, and I couldn’t be more grateful for everyone’s support. On to November 3rd!

Ossoff Defends Natalie Harp Comments, Says ‘No One Cares’ About Her ‘Feelings’

Killing America’s wild horses is illegal. So the Bureau of Land Management sells them cheap instead, and the federal protections end at the sale. The New York Times traced thousands of mustangs shipped overseas to be butchered.

SHOCK: Mike Lawler was repeatedly pressed on CNN over why he won’t return $10,000 from Max Miller’s PAC amid serious abuse allegations against Miller. Lawler defended Miller, calling it a “private family matter.”

Life expectancy at birth is not a prediction about your baby. It is what a newborn would live if today’s death rates held all their life. It is a snapshot of a health system right now.

Look at this graph. The share of national income going to the richest 10 percent was lowest (and share to lower 90 percent highest) when union membership was at its highest. As unions have weakened, inequality has widened. This is why we must build back union power.

RFK Jr's CDC reportedly scaled back foodborne disease tracking last year, removing cyclospora from mandatory reporting. The CDC also lost roughly 3,000 employees since 2025. Now a cyclosporiasis outbreak has killed 2 and sickened thousands across 45 states. "Make America Healthy Again."

Trump explained his strategy at Camp David: “We just want to win.” #Iran is simultaneously “obliterated” and dangerous enough to bomb again. Negotiations make him angry. Missile attacks become “bing, bing, bing.” #uspolitics #kakistocracy #authoritarianism open.substack.com/pub/marygedd...

1. This New York Post cover: “Thousands of 9/11 families demand Mamdani be banned from 25th-Anniversary” is a brazen lie. How do I know? I interviewed the organizer of the petition.

WHOA!! Rep. Zach Nunn (R-IA) just STRUCK a person asking him a simple question about rural hospital closures. Reporter: Do you still think rural hospital closures are a myth? Nunn: I said I'm with a constituent. You should protect their privacy! *SMACK*

This month, ICE has been responsible for multiple high-profile killings in states across the country. Our newest report demonstrates that these tragic events are part of greater pattern of misconduct and violence, spurred on by the Trump administration's mass deportation drive.

Statement from Annie Farmer on meeting with Todd Blanche: "After meeting with Todd Blanche, I feel even more confident in urging senators to vote against his confirmation as the United States' Attorney General. "I found him abrasive, condescending, and intentionally noncommittal to survivors."

ICE lied about how Renee Good was shot. They lied about how Alex Pretti was shot. And now they’re lying about how Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was shot. Don’t believe their story for a second.

In an admittedly cursory search, literally the only references I can find to the Founders calling America "god's noble experiment" are from... Chuck Schumer speeches. Why is the Senate Democratic Leader carrying water for a right wing Christian lie? And apparently fabricating quotes to do it?

Brilliant. How real trolling is done.

this Pirro press conference is completely beyond parody, like a deleted scene from Idiocracy. listen to this shit

Today, I introduced legislation to require that the minimum wage be a living wage. $25 an hour is what’s required for a full time worker to pay their bills, and we shouldn’t accept that full time work leaves people living in poverty.
