If Brazil can reject Trump, the Broligarchs and right-wing authoritarianism, so can we.

In one day, two politicians - Bolsonaro in Brazil and Vucic in Serbia - with ties to Trump have lost surprise elections thanks to high turnout. The rise of the international far-right is not inevitable.

In a world where you can be anything, be a person who votes in midterm elections! 💚🙏✊

Oh good, we’ve made it to the “advertising discrete partnerships with the CIA” stage of this goatfuck. I remember when Marco was supposed to be the reasonable one.

I don’t understand why farmers need an endless series of welfare payments from the rest of us since Trump took office. Aren’t his policies working for you? You need us to pay you so you will keep voting for the guy who is failing you? Don’t you believe in free market capitalism?

This is Tommy. Tommy had a question about my allegiances. Listen to the end to hear about his.

Fuck this guy

RFK Jr announces a new initiative to kick people off their healthcare coverage but insists it's no big deal because "they don't even know they were enrolled in anything. They never make a claim."

When Ukraine destroys Russian data centers, hoards of aggressive right-wing bots disappear & the internet becomes friendlier. So much of politics is driven by the internet & so much of the internet is driven by Russians who want to hurt us. Shouldn’t we do something about that, given that we know it

A quick reminder that all the deranged right-wing conspiracy theories about James Talarico are to distract from the fact that their candidate, Ken Paxton, is too much of a coward to agree to a debate.

Chris Murphy: "Donald Trump was so fundamentally unprepared for this war that within days of the war starting, our billion dollar air bases and naval bases in the region were obliterated by the Iranians. Every single American should be furious about that."

I’m loving the “well akshually he didn’t REALLY mean let Iran take out Los Angeles and San Diego” excuses today. Cool. Explain the assholes in the crowd who thought it was fucking hilarious. Deplorables wasn’t strong enough.

Donald Trump is not himself the disease of our politics. He’s just the worst symptom. The disease is the system that allows corporations to buy and sell politicians so they can rig it against the rest of us. Money out of politics. Money in your pocket. Medicare for All.

In the past week Trump has banned free press, launched state-run media, attacked the international criminal court, and literally rolled out the red carpet for a communist. Trump is the communist.

Being the undisputed worst POTUS in history is pretty cool, but I think we can do better on this approval rating

Hurting the president’s feelings isn’t a national security threat Thank you for your attention to this matter.

It’s amazing how many Republican senators and senate nominees in close races are suddenly against the Iran War this week after backing it 100% for 7 months. Is there an election coming up soon?

Trump has now refunded $128 billion dollars from his tariffs to corporations. Tariffs he created, made Americans pay for, and then returned right back to his donors. We paid, and his friends cashed in.

ProPublica’s analysis of CDC data found that the rate of deaths involving ectopic pregnancies has nearly doubled. The spike alarmed many experts. One said it should “be a never event.”

Boykin: The Republicans control the entire government. They control the white house. They control the house. They control the senate. They control six of the nine seats on the supreme court. If you're not happy with the way the country is running America, blame the Republicans.

Runaway Ashley can keep running from debating me and answering for her record, but the Hope Florida mess keeps getting worse. Taxpayer funds were misappropriated for political activities. Now taxpayers shelled out nearly $200K for a DeSantis aide’s lawyers. #Angie4FL

🚨 NEWS: Ken Paxton kept taking money from a longtime political ally accused by at least eight men of sexual abuse, even after the allegations became public. The disturbing ties span more than a decade. Receipts below.

🚨 MAJOR NEWS: Reps. Thomas Massie and Ro Khanna say they have now secured commitments for all 218 signatures needed to force a House vote on Epstein Files Transparency Act II.

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…

Big news: The family of Tierra Walker, who died after she couldn't get an abortion, is suing a slate of Texas actors in state court, including AG Ken Paxton. They say the state ban is unconstitutional. This is the first suit of its kind. 19thnews.org/2026/09/texa...

Where is mitch!?!?!

BREAKING: Our banned interview with Kimmel generated 6 million views on YouTube.

oh my god is the catering cart back?

No, not irreversible. But it will almost certainly take more than one Democratic term to fix. Which is why I’ve been so insistent that folks stop the goddamn purity tests and vote responsibly in November. We aren’t looking for perfect candidates. We’re looking for better than Republicans.

I know it’s a long list, but this might be the dumbest thing Trump has ever tweeted. The Fed would love to be able to lower rates, but Trump’s policies (including the moronic one he announces here) are preventing that from happening.

Fetterman is not only a terrible, lazy senator who was supported by his parents until his mid-40s, he’s just a garbage human being. No surprise he ended up as a regular Fox contributor where he feels most at home.

This. Fuck your purity test. Find me a single elected Republican that is better than your least favorite Democratic member of Congress. I’ll wait.

People are falling for the DSA vs Establishment trap again. Didn’t we learn our lesson in 2016 and 2024? It’s the establishment’s job to build a coalition that can win EVERYWHERE. In some places, that means ultra-progressive. In others, it means establishment. The tent is big enough for all of us.

It’s been almost 90 days since the American people have seen or heard from Mitch McConnell. We’re still paying his salary.

Best Twitter riposte of the day.

Starting a pointless trade war with our most reliable partner as a distraction from your failed war in Iran (that you launched as a distraction from your administration covering up the Epstein files) isn’t going to win you any votes.

Your regular reminder that if not for the Trump and Bush tax cuts, federal revenues would keep pace with federal spending indefinitely. Instead, these tax cuts have added at least $10 trillion to the debt. The so called "party of fiscal responsibility" is full of it.

NEW: Just got a lovely email from the Alex Vindman campaign asking us to UNITE behind Angie Nixon and to donate in support of her campaign. Thank you, @avindman.bsky.social! You can contribute here: angienixon.com

SAD: The average American makes enough money in one lifetime to pay for 22 seconds interest on Trump crushing national debt.

The president is making US policy friendlier to North Korea and Russia than Canada and Oman. Are you kidding me?

This just dropped. I wish we lived in a world in which Republicans—yes Republicans—were capable of actually coming around and understanding they need to impeach and remove this man quickly to save the planet. I mean all of us. Their families, my family, their friends, my friends.

Please don't let the people of Puerto Rico get lost in the noise. Keep talking about this. www.reuters.com/pictures/pue...

I don't know who needs to hear this, but an economy controlled by a handful of oligarchs isn't a "free market."

Trump just dismantled this so his blatant corruption and his cronies overseas can operate without consequences or detection. Organized crime is now legal and the US is open for exploitation by foreign and domestic criminals. Don’t expect Rubio to say a word.

“Socialism is a scareword they have hurled at every advance the people have made… socialism is their name for most anything that helps the people. 1952. Truman. This is how stale their desperate fearmongering is. cc: @MarshaBlackburn

The Odyssey made a billion dollars telling the story of a soldier who went to war and desperately wanted to come home. Meanwhile, actual US sailors have been at sea for 200+ days, and some are throwing themselves overboard. BRING. THEM. HOME.

The stakes are high this November - and people from across the country are watching to see if we'll come together to win. I know we will.
