TEXAS — @jamestalarico.bsky.social : “Why do we have a trillionaire when veterans are sleeping on the streets? The reason poverty exists is not because we can’t feed the poor, it’s because we can’t satisfy the rich.” (From @teamtalaricohq.bsky.social )
‘But I got road salt exempted from Trump’s tariffs’ is really the perfect way to sum up Susan Collins during the Trump era. While he does hundreds of things to hurt Mainers, she brags about one small thing she did to help her reelection, while doing nothing on the big things.
Susan Collins "does what Trump needs her to do to enact his agenda, and sometimes casts a protest vote—but only if she can prearrange it to be meaningless. She is a snake disguised as a muppet."
A new study found that levies put in place last year by the Trump administration drove up consumer goods inflation by an estimated 2.9 percentage points as of February.
If they’re admitting 81 planes, drones and helicopters worth $3.3 billion have been lost in Iran, imagine what they’re not telling us. The real cost is likely far higher, and our grandchildren will be paying for this unnecessary war and his reckless spending.

The MAGA regime recently killed the largest ancient 250 year old “Grandmother” Cottonwood tree in Arizona’s indigenous territory just to expand the orange felon’s fucking wall.
I’ll never forgive anyone who chose this evil.
Today we got access to a smoking gun document from ICE that shows how it is weaponized against progressive groups registering voters while building a voter suppression database.
@saletan.bsky.social makes the case against Trump and looks at evidence Jack Smith brought up in a deposition last year:
“ If you think that Trump believed the election was stolen…DOJ officials told him that they didn't believe it was stolen…He knew he was telling them to lie.”
Just in case it wasn’t clear, when they say the U.S. Government’s paying for this, that’s YOUR taxpayer dollars they’re using.
I’ll say this as many times as I need to: it is ILLEGAL to use American taxpayer dollars from the government to pay for candidates’ or parties’ political ads.
"At the end of the day, this may be the hardest thing for people like us to accept: The free world now views America as a threat. The free world is right to. And no one, or two, or three elections will change that."
Through the end of August 2026, the House was in session for roughly 383 hours total. That’s an average of about 48 hours per month. Their average monthly floor time is well below the 80-hour monthly threshold the same Congress imposed on Medicaid recipients.
Exclusive: More American service members have died in the Middle East during the ongoing Iran war than the Pentagon has disclosed publicly, according to U.S. officials.
Details surrounding the undisclosed deaths remain unclear. Read more: https://wapo.st/4y5VLXJ
I checked Fetterman’s feed to see if he ever posted about record high diesel prices that make everything more expensive for his constituents. Nothing. Lots of Israel content though.

Apparently it is of no concern to any Republicans that Trump and Bessent are taking in billions of dollars from plundered Venezuelan oil and nobody knows where the money is, where is has been going, if anyone is getting proceeds, with no accounting of any of it made available.
Kash Patel defended his new policy before the Senate Judiciary Committee which allows the FBI to hire agents who have engaged in bestiality and it barely gets noticed because there are 50 other things happening from these clowns each day that are worse.
Ossoff: Blanche is a joke and a hack. These folks are not just corrupt, they're clowns. Here you have a Kremlin connected Russian oligarch giving massive cash gifts to the president's son…
Sen. Kennedy: "Why would you even get into bestiality?"
Patel: "We are not into bestiality, but a lot of these individuals…"
Sen. Kennedy: "But you changed the qualifications and mentioned bestiality!"
Ken Paxton’s office helped bury records involving hundreds of lab animals, including at least 100 dogs subjected to painful testing. Now, Meidas News has obtained disturbing photos and video of what he fought to keep hidden.
@timmiller.bsky.social: "Abdul El-Sayed does not say that he's a socialist…Republicans are gonna try to turn him into a socialist…I find it very galling that all this is happening while Donald Trump is running the country as a MAGA socialist."
"The guy who went on Jake Tapper last night is not winning re-election in a R+5 district in a blue-wave year. He will run and lose and that will be the end of it....The stain on Trump and Johnson, however, will remain."
A 60 Minutes probe into Epstein's banking, with Wyden already interviewed, vanished right after Sharyn Alfonsi got pushed out under Bari Weiss.
Wyden released a sweeping Senate report alleging several of the largest banks of having “been willing to turn a blind eye” to Epstein’s financial activity.
The American Dream has become an American Nightmare.
It’s too expensive to buy a home.
It’s too expensive to get married and have kids.
It’s too expensive to retire comfortably.
The top 1% put the American Dream behind a paywall.
"That last line, in particular, stood out to me as I watched Trump’s speech. Because if you removed 'foreign actors' from it, you would have an apt description of . . . Donald Trump." lnk.thebulwark.com/4hjbQU4
