Bad night for Trump and the global ethno nationalist right. Couldn't happen to a more deserving group of villains. substack.com/home/post/p-...

The latest Truth Social post from the president of the United States.

In August, President Trump announced he had signed the “biggest oil deal in world history.” ProPublica reviewed the deal and found it gives a small group of people largely handpicked by the Trump administration long-term control of the enterprise.

Donald Trump just told Veterans poisoned by toxic water at Camp Lejeune that they’ll only get the money they’re owed if Republicans win the midterms. These are Marines and their families who drank contaminated water for decades, got cancer, and have been begging the government for relief.

Let's be clear: Ukraine did not start this war. Russia did. What American national interest is served by helping an imperial dictator at the expense of a democracy fighting for its survival?

Yikes. In a desperate-sounding video, CENTCOM Commander Adm. Brad Cooper insists the Strait of Hormuz is “controlled by the United States… not Iran” and “open for business,” despite overwhelming evidence to the contrary.

every moment Trump is out in public these days is like an SNL cold open. This is happening right now

We have enough food, technology, and money to save the planet. We just have a system where destroying it is more profitable. That's not a climate problem. That's a greed problem. #ClimateJustice

According to Nevada election officials and a report by The New York Times, Trump stooge Markwayne Mullin and his Department of Homeland Security (DHS) failed to produce a single verified noncitizen voter after state review of a list containing 185 flagged names. Read more: https://bit.ly/3TRRsQI

Climate Week is here in New York City, and our work has deep roots. 18,261 trees planted this year. The most in a decade.

My kids have measles, I can't afford gas, my country has been humiliated by Iran, and our senile rapist president is going to allow unregulated AI to destroy our civilization. But a lesbian bar in a town I've never heard of still has a mask mandate. I have never felt more politically homeless.

Donald Trump admits what DOJ and most of the legacy media refuse to. The U.S. Postal Service mail-in ballot rule was a partisan effort to help the GOP. SCOTUS' decision was, in his words: "a big loss for Republicans."

Getting going on my Postcards to Swing States for the midterms. My batch all going to TX. @Postcards2WIN.bsky.social #PostcardsToVoters

Too many people online seem to conflate left politics with being obnoxious and scathing and Mamdani is such a model for combining a principled ideological vision with civility and grace. You shake hands, you act like a grown up even whether others aren’t. You show up.

Friday morning, I was gardening when I checked my phone. A request had gone out for help. For 25+ hours, ICE had been laying siege to a quiet neighborhood in Frederick, MD. Community members were afraid, some didn’t want to leave their homes. ICE vehicles seemed to be lurking on every corner.

The only reason DTE gets away with failing us like this while raising our rates EVERY year is because they buy off corrupt politicians like Mike Rogers. In his case, it’s $64,000.

🌲 FOREST SERVICE The people cutting this agency are done for the day. They think that’s the end of the news cycle. Prove otherwise before morning: 👇 actionnetwork.org/letters/tell...

📬 USPS LATEST 📬 🔺A whistleblower is calling out USPS’s implementation of Trump’s anti-mail voting EO. 🔺DOJ filed emergency motions to pause a temporary block on USPS's final rule. 🔺A federal court will hold a hearing on Thursday on motions to block USPS's final rule for the midterms.

Hypocrisy alert

Poverty is a policy choice. Concentrated wealth is a policy choice. Inequality is a policy choice. None of it is natural or inevitable. Remember: We have the power to build a system that serves the many, not the powerful few.

Susan Collins pretends to be “independent.” But every time it matters, she caves to Trump. Every single time.

New in PN: Democrats in array "The fact is Dems are ready to crawl across broken glass & over fields swarming with velociraptors to defeat the bloated fascist oligarch and his corrupt minions. And Dem politicians are responding to these incentives by focusing their ire on the crime boss president."

Among the first agencies President Donald Trump gutted after taking office for his second term was a Department of Homeland Security team that had repeatedly disproved his stolen election claims.

Just as I was finishing my American history Fantasyland (2017), he barged into it to become the star of its final chapter, “As Fantasyland Goes, So Goes the Nation.” And a long decade later, he’s now entered his own personal Fantasyland. With the cult of true believers down to the Natalies.

Doctors say that measles can kill young children. A guy who snorts cocaine off toilet seats and drives around with dead bear cubs in his car says they'll be fine as long as they eat enough beef tallow. For busy parents, it can be hard to know who to trust.

One insane thing is how many trump soundbites there are like "i dont care about prices" & "you'll have to pay more for gas & like it" & every pundit was like "he just cut Dems an ad for them" & like there are 0 ads being aired by Dems with any of these quotes lol

US media: Why in the world are people voting for democratic socialists? Financial Times: “US corporate profits have hit a record high while workers’ slice of the pie has sunk to historic lows.”

Batsh*t crazy & anyone who believes it is a mindless moron

BREAKING: Liam Tadeo was just deported by ICE.

As Americans’ approval of the clownishly corrupt Supreme Court nears a historic low, U.S. Senators Sheldon Whitehouse has introduced his SCOTUS Term Limits Act, legislation to establish 18-year term limits and regularized appointments for justices. Send a letter here: https://bit.ly/4gwd9i1

I’m not sure how to convey this succinctly to legacy media who continues to go to Manchin for his opinion. But let me try: No one, and I mean no one, gives a fuck what Joe Manchin thinks about anything.

Donald Trump does not run elections. States do. His latest attack on democracy is proof of how weak he has become. California will continue to lead the way in defending democracy using every tool at our disposal and every minute in our day. This perilous moment in history demands no less from us.

Another stupid war of choice

Freedom. The most basic freedoms are to be who you are, to love who you love. If someone just being themselves, though they’re not hurting or even affecting you at all, makes you uncomfortable, you might want to consider that you are the one with the problem. www.nytimes.com/2026/08/13/o...

When it comes to your children’s health, listen to doctors. Not a president who once told Americans to inject bleach. The American Academy of Pediatrics’ immunization recommendations have not changed.

Video of an ICE agent pulling a gun on a wife and mother, who is a US citizen born and raised in the area, near Bailey's Crossroads in Northern Virginia yesterday. Chillingly, they claimed she “almost ran them over” until she told them she had video proving that was a lie.

We’re in scary times, but lots of folks in media are doing their damnedest to defend democracy. My Stop the Presses newsletter praises 25 of them and also cites other fierce fighters. See if you agree.

BLUMENTHAL: Judge Cook, who won the 2020 election? COOK: A joint session of Congress certified Joe Biden BLUMENTHAL: How many times have you rehearsed that answer with the White House? Who won the popular vote? COOK: So if you look at each state, the governor-- B: So you're unwilling to answer

Have you noticed the tributes to Lindsey Graham don't cite any actual legislative accomplishments that benefited his constituents? It's a lot of "he was a strong voice" & "got along with everyone"- generic stuff you could say about anyone. His actual legacy is fluffing Trump & reckless war-mongering

“.. a nine-month process that $META used to cut deals behind the scenes, avoid local opposition and offload financial risk, according to interviews with more than 40 people and a review of corporate filings, tax records, property records ..” Incredible reporting. www.nytimes.com/2026/07/27/t...

House lawmakers on Thursday again rebuked Trump's handling of the war in Iran, as hostilities flare in the Middle East. Four Republicans broke ranks to help approve a Democratic-led war powers resolution in a 214-208 vote. It was the second time the House has narrowly rejected the renewed war.
