The thing about RFK Jr is that he’s not just a eugenicist who peddles extreme and dangerous anti-science, anti-vaccine conspiracy theories that cause suffering, pain, and death, but he’s also a vile racist piece of s**t

Tell us something we don’t know

Lula won in part by banning online gambling

Autocrat rule outsted in Serbia. Three more-- in Brazil, Israel and the U.S.-- facing voters over the next ten days. Fingers crossed. www.theguardian.com/world/ng-int...

Trump is straight up saying during speeches that he wants white people coming to the country but not black. I don’t know what else people need to see.

There has been an extraordinary effort to get low propensity voters to cast ballots this election and it appears to be working. 42% of the voters in Harris County TX yesterday skipped at least one of the last three elections. And you can see that number is growing daily.

It’s not that hard!

Arise, Sir Beta of Grovelshire, sworn knight of King Donald the Needy and Protector of the House of Mar-a-Lago.

Lots of good news today for Dems. Don’t get complacent. Check your registration. Go vote - early if you can. Let’s win this fucking thing.

What a legend.

In an age where it seems like money is everything, it’s refreshing to have Cleveland and Tampa in the ALCS demonstrating that quality can’t just be bought

Every time he says something completely insane or incoherent and the media basically ignores it, they look more and more disingenuous for acting like Biden was some doddering old fool and I am so fucking sick of it.

Daragh Fleming gets the last word tonight. Good night friends. "Men being silent needs to stop. Silence is enforced by shame. You’re shamed for speaking, calling problematic behaviour out. We need to call out other men who are saying fucked up shit."

"Now, just five weeks until the midterms, a growing number of Republicans are panicking as they grasp how many voters despise the man they’ve spent the last decade enabling." open.substack.com/pub/america/...

50 percent tariffs for our beloved neighbor and historic ally, Canada. A red carpet and a military flyover for Communist China’s leader. Donald Trump is a sick man and a danger to America.

my love and respect for Larry David grows all the time pagesix.com/2026/09/22/h...

I hope the lesson Trump takes from this is that he needs to scream as loudly as possible to be heard. He should put everything in his heart and lungs into it.

Can we not

Ah yes, we all remember how the war started -- Iran just started terrorizing international shipping and then the US, out of the goodness of its heart, stepped in to stop Iran from doing that. Yes, yes, of course, yes.

She's bragging about starving children

I will not soften this take. I will not walk it back. I will not say “well it’s nuanced…” because it’s not. The president banning journalists from the White House on the basis that he doesn’t like what they say about him is FASCISM 101. FULL STOP.

Our music and our memories are being wiped out. AMERICA built this city. Not a president. Join us!

A lot of Dems could take a lesson from this and openly acknowledge that their opponents are bigots. The resistance (mostly from establishment centrists) to stating plainly what's happening instead of using weasel words for the sake of civility is what makes voters think we're spineless.

Again, I am just a man standing in front of the Democratic Party, begging them to make a bigger deal of this deeply unlikeable racist billionaire asshole who is constantly pushing things everyone loathes.

This administration is made up of the worst humans imaginable

Has anyone asked Mitch McConnell to denounce Hasan Piker? Probably not. I realize the media is pretty obsessed with this Twitch streamer, but it's not like they'd ever want to disturb the privacy of the powerful senator no one has seen in 100 days.

I work in an elementary school clinic, and I’m not even allowed to have tweezers. These f*cking assholes.

Jesus fucking Christ covid vax REDUCED miscarriages and stillbirths. Also I'm one of the people who studied menstrual side fx of the covid vax to make sure we didn't invalidate peoples' real experiences, and to better set expectations for side fx. Ultimately the project made me even MORE provax!

Todd Blanche: “I am not sure of the uproar of having a Border Patrol or ICE agent at a polling location. What's the risk?” Uhm, maybe because it’s illegal? Federal statute 18 U.S.C. § 592 prohibits deploying “troops or armed men” to locations where elections are held. An AG should know this.

What a *shock*

Blanche was confirmed as AG. Just a reminder: The last time a president appointed an attorney he had personal ties to, was when Nixon appointed his law partner and campaign manager John Mitchell. Mitchell ended up disbarred and spent 2 yrs in prison for his role as AG protecting Nixon.

This is not just about Max Miller. Mike Johnson has just given cover to every abuser. He has undermined belief in every survivor’s story. He has set an assumption that accusations are made with malice towards the accused — the ultimate victim blaming. It’s hard to overstate the harm of this.

Local man suggests jailing own boss.

A bunch of spineless boot lickers

As a general rule I will crawl over broken glass to support whoever the alternative to a fucking republican is

Couldn’t agree more. Let’s start our search at the White House.

These pricks are raised in a bubble of privilege & immunity, told their entire lives that it's their right to have whatever they want & dominate anyone lower on the class or gender totem pole. They can not simply pivot, one day to the next, to a plausible attitude of regret & contrition. They can't!

You don’t say…

At this point, Thom Tillis has nothing left to lose but his principles, so he made sure to toss them overboard too.

Great exhibit of how toxic masculinity is bad for men too. How does it help him to be this angry about random (and possibly imaginary) people who recall his appearance 19 years ago in one of his many popular films?

NEW: 2 people in Michigan have just died from Cyclosporiasis — the first deaths reported from the outbreak sweeping the nation. This after Taylor Farms gave *$2 million* to Trump & Republicans as they postponed a rule that could've limited the spread of outbreaks like the ongoing epidemic.

If you want members of this regime to be held legally accountable, you have to add four seats to the Supreme Court in 2029. Otherwise, they'll protect their fellow oligarchs like they did in 2023. 1. Win the senate 2. Block nominees 3. Elect a dem POTUS 4. Congress adds 4 seats 5. Have nice things

the obsession with trans women in sports is, apart from the abject bigotry, a symptom of how we take amateur sports participation way too seriously in this country.

MY LATEST: One of the lessons of 2020 was this: When Donald Trump's lies start to unravel, don't pay attention to what his cronies say in the parking lot; pay attention to what they say in the courtroom. newsletters.democracydocket.com/from-four-se...
