...Cities may be rebuilt, and a People reduced to Poverty may acquire fresh Property: But a Constitution of Government once changed from Freedom, can never be restored. Liberty once lost is lost forever. John Adams

In Williamson County, voters told WSMV they needed multiple attempts to register their intended choices. One said she selected Democrat Jerri Green, but Republican Marsha Blackburn kept appearing instead. Another reported a similar experience while voting at Nashville’s Hermitage Library.

Just 10 people have already poured over $1 BILLION into this year’s midterm elections. 90% has gone to Republicans. In the entire 2008 presidential cycle, the last election before Citizens United, total billionaire spending was $16 million. We need to get Big Money out of our democracy.

He finally got it👏🏽🇺🇸💯

I Completely agree!💙🌊

Stand with Zelensky and against Putin. Stand with Pope Leo XIV and against ICE. Stand with No Kings and against MAGA. Stand with the people and against the oligarchs. Stand with liberal democracy, against Trump.

Who's running this place anyway? Maybe we should find out?

Here’s a response to Trump waiving Graham Act sanctions, from Rep Don Beyer: “Congress must fix this flawed law.”

December 5, 1994. The Budapest Memorandum.

There is no such thing as a “liberal America” and a “conservative America” in this world there is only the United States of America.✊

OK this is objectively hilarious.🤣

Americans have much less courage/will to fight for their rights than French High Schoolers. Land of the Free and Home of the Brave indeed. Citizens in other Banana Republics are probably looking on with disgust. Get off your loungers the world is watching and will never trust you again

Records obtained and released Thursday show that, despite promises of private funding, American taxpayers largely supported Trump's Freedom 250 summer blowout, leaving many questions about where Trump actually spent the tens of millions in private donations. www.washingtonsun.com/whitehouse/t...

As completely deranged and fucked up and wrong as he is, I gotta say it is stressful to have the damn president of the United States constantly attacking my state of Minnesota, sending violence, calling for violence, putting all lives at risk, killing our neighbors. Like it really takes a toll.

Thank you for coming forward. We need more voices from inside the uniform standing shoulder-to-shoulder with us to reject this extremism, protect our democratic norms, and demand accountability.

"Among the first to appear before the judge was Angel, a 13-year-old. He had no attorney. “Would you like to request voluntary departure, or should I issue a removal order?” the judge asked “I don’t know,” Angel said, bursting into tears: “I have no one. I have nothing.” www.cnn.com/2026/09/28/p...

The Las Playas Intaglio, a giant fish carved into the Sonoran Desert in Arizona, is now considered the oldest example in the Americas of a geoglyphic, the ancient art form that is carved into or drawn on the ground. nbcnews.to/4j0Wyo9

Tweed is such a beautiful fabric to wear this time of year because it produces, in Dolly Parton's phrasing, a coat of many colors. Even a solid-colored brown is not just brown, but bits of red, blue, and yellow to produce something that looks lifted off the Scottish landscape.

Four days ago, a scientist was surprised by the news that Anthropic discovered new virus genes for making DNA. He says he’s been studying them for years—and feeding his data to Anthropic’s AI as part of his own research. Coincidence? Here’s my story. nyti.ms/3VSWayc

Hateful ≠ Smart Seems the world forgot.

"A brand new CNN poll shows President Trump at an all time low in his approval rating... look at his net approval rating now with pure independents - it's negative 71 points! I mean, these are the deep depths of the ocean. You never see numbers like these. An 86 point shift away from the president!"

Good.

No current data for miscarriages of women in ICE custody does not mean that they are not happening. It means that the Trump administration is hiding them.  

Donald Trump is planning a monstrous 250-foot arch to be built near Arlington National Cemetery. Veterans have a message for him: HELL NO. The "Arc De Trump" is no monument, it's a middle finger to those buried at Arlington.

Please read & share. Drumpf & pals are going to clear cut the most spectacular old growth Tongass, Alaska forest. Read up, and at the end of the article, there's a way to take action. We cannot get back what we destroy. Old growth is irreplaceable. morethanjustparks.substack.com/p/us-forest-...

Holy shit. Four of the nation's top military commanders, including the Chief of Naval Operations, have privately made it clear to Hegseth that they do not agree with him on extending forces in the War in Iran. wapo.st/4wT23bL

Over 1,400 people were killed in gang-related violence in Haiti between April and June alone. The neighborhood struck in the latest attack had already endured an attack last month which left 105 people dead. Haiti is not safe for people to return to. Gift link: www.miamiherald.com/news/nation-...

So, something I talk-about-but-not-really is that I'm one of the people on this moderation team and have been heavily involved in running the project since 2019. I first got into answering stuff about the Spanish Civil War, and then got more and more fascinated about how it all works...

Oh how I love this.

This isn’t going to go well. #TrumpsTariffs

When the order came to abandon ship, Doris Miller didn't. He stayed and pulled men out of burning water. He was 24 when he was killed. www.JackHopkinsNow.com

Here's your daily reminder: Trump and Republicans are kicking 15 million Americans off their health care so that people like Mark Zuckerberg can buy another yacht.

“And the only one who fell for it was Donald Trump.” @hunterbiden doesn’t back down as Bill Maher tries to defend Trump’s pointless, costly, deadly war on Iran (which Bill has championed since the beginning)
