You what would be fabulous? Having ONE stinkin' day where I do not have to hear about the president, his administration, or his minions. They are an omnipresent storm cloud that blots out the sun.

ONE WEEK FROM TODAY IS NO KINGS #4 (Details at: nokings.org) We must turn up in MASSIVE numbers to show the world we don't support this Administration or a criminal president who has enriched himself to an obscene level at the expense of everyday hardworking Americans! #GettingReadyToDump-tRUMP 🟠💩 👎

When I participate in the Jimmy Fund walk for @danafarber.bsky.social this weekend, I'll be holding many people's names in my heart, chiefly my son's. If you're interested in supporting the walk but haven't got around to it yet, there's still time. danafarber.jimmyfund.org/site/TR?pg=p...

NEW POLL: 53% of Americans support expanding the Supreme Court, including majorities of both Democrats and independents. Two weeks ago, House Dems stood united to keep that option on the table. Happy Constitution Day! law.marquette.edu/poll/

BREAKING Judge Cooper ORDERS the Trump-installed Kennedy Center Board to provide 30 days notice before "any changes," including the main building's "demolition." He declines to call an emergency hearing, but demands a sworn declaration from a Board rep.. Full order embedded here.

A federal judge ordered the Kennedy Center to provide 30 days' notice before major physical changes to the building, including demolition.

Nearly 5.5 million people have lost access to SNAP since H.R. 1 was enacted. FRAC is urging Senators to reject a Farm Bill that fails to reverse these devastating cuts and leaves SNAP costs shifts to states in place. Read more: frac.org/news/farmbil...

Number of elected Republicans condemning the naked plunder of a sovereign nation’s wealth: 0.0.

We had thought the “safety issues” at the Kennedy Center were caused by the Trump administration. It appears that might be the case. In a sworn declaration filed today, a legal observer said she witnessed a forklift carrying fencing drive to the north

OpenAI identified six more incidents of rogue AI agents including one which left a "persona instruction" note saying it wasn't subserviant to anyone www.nytimes.com/2026/09/16/t...

The government is not his plaything. That money is NOT his money.

Quite a recent pattern: - GOP candidate in Fla. marched alongside neo-Nazis - Husted fires aide over Nazi photo - Collins fires aide over swastika images - State Dept hires speechwriter whom DeSantis fired over video with Nazi imagery - Trump rewards Paul Ingrassia, who said he has a “Nazi streak”

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.

Trump Told MAGA To Cheat “Raise your right hand” “I pledge to the greatest president in the history of the United States that loves us so much ... I will do it any way — I don’t care if I’m registered or not, I’m going to try and cheat like hell, like they do.” www.nytimes.com/live/2026/09...

Expand the Court. Impose term limits. Impeach corrupt justices. Enact a binding code of ethics.

This “game” on the White House website, a version of Snake where you play as a white man in a suit and you run around picking up identifiably black, Asian, and Latino men and putting them in orange jumpsuits, might be the most openly white supremacist thing I’ve ever seen the US government produce

"When a bunch of Republican operatives were discovered to have exchanged texts calling black people 'monkeys' and 'watermelon people' and pronouncing 'I love Hitler!' Vance was forgiveness itself."

Florida has spent $1.4 billion earmarked for disaster preparedness on detaining and deporting immigrants. www.miamiherald.com/news/politic...

BREAKING: according to GasBuddy data, the live U.S. national average price of diesel has set a new record: $5.820/gal, surpassing the previous daily $5.819/gal all-time high that occurred June 17, 2022. (9/3/26 3:25pm ET)

This is demonstrably, measurably improving the health of the people who live there. Most notably, it increases the respiratory *& cognitive* health of children. They literally do better in school. If this country really gave a shit about children, this would be at the top of the public-policy list.

How can we, the American people, put a stop to this vanity arch in the nation's capital, which belongs to all of us? I certainly don't think Congress will stop this, nor the courts (because he'll appeal to SCOTUS who'll give him what he wants). www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

ICE hasn’t paid for detainee medical care since October. Advocates call it the ‘death policy’ — my latest, w/ @kolyncheang.bsky.social. Spend some time with it www.sfchronicle.com/politics/art...

It seems like “the criminal president is ignoring court orders to build an ad hoc federal system to reject mail ballots from states he doesn’t like” should be bigger news

That is an incidence rate of… 0.00547% The voter fraud allegations you’ve been sold are blatantly and provably false.

I like that this design appears to show the birth date of liberty as 1776, and its death as 2026

Nationwide, it's clear ICE doesn't care about the health of the people they detain. The lack of accountability is unacceptable. At Delaney Hall and other facilities, people are suffering without proper medical care. They deserve so much better – that's what I'm fighting for.
