President Donald Trump delivered his rally speech in Tennessee Saturday to entire sections of empty seats at the F&M; Bank Arena in Clarksville, new video and photos of the rally revealed.

Nobody in the U.S. Senate is more responsible for the overturning of Roe v. Wade than Susan Collins. In November, we will defeat her.

Here’s the very simple truth. We should ban all Gerrymandering. Until then, to unilaterally disarm is political suicide and malpractice.

A reminder while Republicans bitch about Dems finishing the redistricting fight they started: they have full control of gov’t— they can pass a law banning gerrymandering any time they want. They won’t. Republicans aren’t mad gerrymandering exists; they’re mad that they’re not the only ones using it.

"We need a government that works for all of us," the senator wrote in a searing X post.

The March 15, 2025, killing of Ruben Ray Martinez drew almost no public attention. But Martinez is now the first known American citizen shot to death by federal immigration agents during President Trump’s second term. https://wapo.st/4lbpGYC

If Dems win the Supreme Court races in Pennsylvania in 9 days, it’s extremely likely the GOP can’t get a majority on that court until 2029. The GOP really wants to have this majority during the 2028 presidential race. Can’t put the stakes any more clearly than that. boltsmag.org/pennsylvania...

Nothing to see here!

Very normal freedom things happening in the US of A.

MSNBC fired Matthew Dowd and yet Fox News is just going to let this guy stay.

Progressive activists are still mad from Democrats’ caving back in March.

Sending troops to Chicago could cost $1.6 million per day, four times as much as housing the city's homeless — plus it's illegal, experts say.

Schumer is out of his fucking mind. www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...

Good morning to everyone especially this truth seeker!

World's richest 1% gains $33 trillion since 2015 while inequality widens, per Axios.

The Senate’s version of Donald Trump’s tax cut bill will cost the bottom 20% of taxpayers an average of $560 a year while giving an average boost of $6,055 to those at the top end, per Bloomberg.

the Senate's small-state ultra-bias is never more maddening than when one senator uses it to get benefits for her 740,000 constituents while openly acknowledging the bill she's supporting will harm the nation's 339 million other residents.

The US senate just declared war on the American public. A bill that destroys Medicaid while cutting taxes for the wealthiest at a time when we already have record income and wealth inequality is societal suicide.

Republicans pulled an all-nighter to: -strip healthcare away from 17 million Americans -take food assistance away from 3 million Americans -eliminate school meal access for 18+ million kids -send energy costs soaring -add $3.3 trillion to national debt -raise health care premiums for seniors

And... Senate Republicans have passed Trump's "Big, Beautiful Bill," which kicks ~12M people off of health insurance to give tax cuts to the rich. It passed 50-50, with JD Vance breaking a tie. 3 GOPers voted no: Tillis, Collins, Paul www.huffpost.com/entry/senate... w/ @delaneyrules.bsky.social

The GOP plan is very simple. Starve the poor, and give billions to the rich.

Eric Adams is running on the "End Antisemitism" line. That makes it literally his signature issue. Surely he should know the specifics better, right? Right?

You’d think that single one of these establishment Dems attacking Zohran would be able cite a single, specific example of this alleged anti-Semitic speech. But every time it’s vague statements about how they’re “scared” or they allude to some mythical comment out in the ether.

Asked what specifically Zohran Mamdani has said that's antisemitic, Eric Adams doesn't provide a single example. "A little research and you'll be able to find it," Adams says.

Zohran Mamdani says billioniaires shouldn't exist 'in a moment of such inequality' https://gothamist.com/news/zohran-mamdani-says-billioniaires-shouldnt-exist-in-a-moment-of-such-inequality

NYC mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani said Sunday that billionaires shouldn’t exist

Quick note to everyone pretending that Zohran Mamdani somehow favors communism, here’s the Republican president literally saying on camera that he wishes America were more like Communist China.

Christ on a bike

Trump’s attacks on Iran were based on vibes, not new intel, two administration officials tell Rolling Stone. “There is no intel,” one of the sources says. “The intelligence assessments have not really changed”

He just dropped $280,000,000 worth of artillery in a war that’s not ours, but our grandparents have to live on Ramen noodles because America can’t afford Meals on Wheels anymore. Make it make sense.

Beyond parody.

If people really find this to be such an easy conclusion, then Congressional authority should be easy to get. So why don’t they insist on a vote? They know this isn’t “progressive” resistance. They want to marginalize it as such because on top of this war being ILLEGAL, it’s also deeply unpopular.

really sums up the media’s coverage of the Trump presidency

The same idiots saying LAW & ORDER today were celebrating this

Sure why not

I can't believe any Democrat would THINK of allying with Elon Musk. I won't take money from the guy who does a Hitler salute. It's really that simple.
