People need to start highlighting that Miller is actually the shadow President and the one calling the shots. When it was Musk who was doing it, it caused a rift between them so big that after he was out, Musk was bashing Trump claiming he is in the Epstein files.

“No, Speaker Johnson — the No Kings rally on October 18 is not a hate America rally. In fact, it’s quite the contrary: It’s a love America rally.” #NoKings

THIS.

I was back at 26 Federal Plaza today, where an ICE agent violently threw this bereft woman to the ground in front of her kids. She had not touched him. She did not pose any threat. She had to be taken to the hospital. (🎥: Elias Eliahu)

Warren speaks truth.

In the minds of most Americans, we’ve tended to mythologize the Warren Court as most representative of the Supreme Court, when in truth, for most of our history the Court has ruled against minority rights, upheld the power of wealthy white men, and rarely protected the most vulnerable.

🤣🤣🤣🤣

Chilling.

Well, his memory doesn’t go back that far.

Word of the Day is ‘theic’ (19th century), defined as ‘one given to immoderate tea-drinking; a tea drunkard’.

An idea:

much easier to understand the sheer bloody intensity of the civil war when you have a good grasp on just how terrible slavery was.

I refuse to believe we are going to relitigate slavery. SLAVERY. It’s too much.

He had the leaders of the United Kingdom, France, Germany, Italy, Finland, Ukraine, the EU and NATO in the White House and he made them wait while he went to get instructions from Putin ... For forty minutes?!

This is CNN, a channel I really enjoy when I'm in the US. I wonder if American journalists are aware of how completely insane they look to the rest of the world. How utterly detached their narrative is from everyone else's. edition.cnn.com/2025/08/19/p...

I think it’s high time we take back the national narrative. For centuries Americans of all races, genders, religions, and abilities have worked to create a more perfect union, and we should shout from the rooftops that WE are America. Not these idiot white supremacist authoritarians.

Ditto New York

This was an attack on a federal institution. An attack BECAUSE it is Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. This was domestic terrorism. Why isn’t it getting more press coverage? Some coverage, not enough. Domestic. Terrorism.

This day in history, an abuser resigned in disgrace. He will never hold such power again. We won’t let him.

Thread on CDC shooting👇... Good morning. Yesterday, after hours of hiding, trying not to make a sound, we stepped outside and saw massive bullet holes in our office windows. Those weren’t random shots. That was a high-powered weapon no civilian should ever own.

Love it.

Hey folks, Below is a place to submit your photos of Park signs. Supposedly they’ll be whitewashed by September 17. So now is a good time to start taking photos.

FAFO

It's really weird to demand accountability from a NYC mayoral candidate for a deadly NYC shooting rather than the current NYC mayor, an ex-cop who campaigned on a "tough on crime" platform and promptly got indicted for crimes

Universities have lost their dedication to truth and are merely businesses. They are saving nothing with their capitulation.

Palestinian children have been killed at a rate of more than one child per hour during Israel’s war in Gaza. Read the full list of known names of children killed in the war: wapo.st/4o4Tc3k

"The man who is not yet mayor is to blame for a shooting that happened under the watch of an ex-cop mayor who's thrown every available dollar at the NYPD," insists sex pest

Complete disaster.

Trump’s fascistic fantasies about making his enemies suffer aren’t just a distraction. They’re part of the very real authoritarian project he and his administration have been actively carrying out for the past six months.

When I was little, the U.S. military came to our home at gunpoint and took me and my family away. We were imprisoned for years in barbed wire camps simply because we were Japanese American. I have spent my life telling that story, hoping it would never be repeated.

“did you read…?” “surely you read….” Perfect response, Ann Patchett and @parnassusbooks

One of the things about JD Vance is that he is completely 100% aware that what he is doing is evil and has made a deliberate, conscious choice to do evil to get power. He’s not self-deluded or dumb. He hasn’t drunk Kool-Aid. He’s decided to do evil for power.

Good trouble.

The thing about the Epstein disgustingness that strikes me hardest is that hundreds of rich old men raped underage girls and the only person currently in jail for that vile behavior is a woman.

In case I wasn’t clear…

I'm stunned. ICE attorneys not identifying themselves in COURT?

NYC, save the date for our next nationwide day of protest. 📅 Thursday, July 17th 📍 Foley Square ⏰ 5:30pm Let’s make good trouble. Learn more at GoodTroubleNYC.com.

I don’t care what side of the aisle you’re on, the President of the United States even joking about revoking someone’s citizenship should be met with universal condemnation.
