I believe in government of the people, by the people, and for the people. Mike Rogers believes in government of the billionaires, by the corporations, and for the special interests.

EPA wants to ax its online archive, which would wipe 10s of 1000s of publicly available environmental resources from the web forever. All part of the Trumpian assault of data. www.dailyclimate.org/the-epa-is-q...

Barack Obama is back on the campaign trail, and he just TORCHED Pete Hegseth. Obama pointed out what we already know: these are not serious people. While Hegseth obsesses over jawlines, testosterone levels, and livestreamed executions, our troops are fighting a war nobody asked for.

The trump “rallyettes” attend to collect $5 bucks for coming to see a babbling brook of a promised $5k after tRUMP wins while Obama’s come to remember a time when a realPOTUS was cheered out of love & respect for him!

If you ask me, this should give us even more incentive to take back control of both houses of Congress. Let's get this investigation underway. You don't get to threaten an entire political party, idiot. #USDemocracy

Writers Guild speaks out about tech platforms squashing the @alexgibneyfilm doc about Elon Musk: “A small handful of billionaires now own virtually every major media company, news outlet, social media platform and are demonstrating how this unchecked concentration threatens democratic discourse.”

I haven’t slept a full night in three weeks ahead of the polls opening in Brazil today. I might be shouting into a void here, but if you can spare a few seconds to send good energy towards our elections today and for the largest country in South America to beat fascism, please do so. 🇧🇷

The lesbian judge overseeing the transgender military ban challenge disclosed threats after Donald Trump called her a “crazed lunatic” for ruling against his public golf course takeover.

Trump is still upset about not winning the Nobel Peace Prize. Now he'd also like a Pulitzer for his writing. The awards committee has a new assignment. Read more here: www.dailykos.com/stories/2026...

"Lord, we pray that you lift up Ken Paxton, a serial adulterer who constantly bears false witness, covets material things-- like houses--and disgraces your holy name with his shameless corruption, so that we may continue not to pay taxes and hate all the same people he does. Glory!"

"In total, since taking office again, Mr. Trump exempted 202 facilities in 39 states and Puerto Rico from clean-air regulations that were going into effect. Some were among the country’s worst industrial polluters, including chemical manufacturers, copper smelters and coal-burning power plants."

Amy Acton and Abdul El-Sayed winning would send a LOUD message that MAGA's bigotry and cruelty no longer works!

How? By enforcing laws intended to protect consumers, workers, the environment and other targets of raw corporate greed. Today, though, far-right plutocrats behind Trump's Project 2025 have turned our national protection agencies into private escort services for corporate predators.

You probably won't believe this, boys and girls, but there was a time when government regulatory officials believed it was their public duty to -- get this -- serve the public!

Truth.

Ronan Farrow reported in a 2023 New Yorker piece that the Pentagon signed a contract to keep Musk from cutting off Ukraine’s battlefield connectivity at will. Colin Kahl described it as a way to lock in service so Musk couldn’t just flip the switch, considering Musk's known antipathy towards Ukraine

A friend in a conservative Christian religion was raped by a peer because he figured if he "took" her virginity she would have to marry him. This is how the entire ruling party in the United States sees rape. They believe men own girls and women. #VOTE #GOPHatesWomen #Ohio #EpsteinFiles

This is one of the reasons I ride old motorcycles. An electromagnetic pulse can’t stop them and neither can an angry trust fund baby with a kill-switch or his fascist friends in positions of power.
