Well I’m glad you could find a way to make money off your party completing its journey into full blown fascism, a journey it began before you even ran for office and chose to be a part of them. Are you going to pretend to be outraged by their cuts to healthcare funding YOU VOTED AGAINST?
Massive thanks to Illinois State , WGLT and Dirksen center for hosting a screening last night of “The Last Republican” (available on YouTube now). Over 1300 people attended, and it was amazing to come home! Bloomington/Normal is the best! Courtesy WGLT for the picture

LOL so typical of this fraud. He spends his time in Congress voting against helping starving kids, then makes himself look like a hero for making a blog post about teenagers trying to fix the problems he and the rest of his party of psychopaths created.
Hey everyone, happy Sunday. Are you ready for some good news? In honor of September being Hunger Action Month, today I wrote on my Substack about two kids in South Florida who have made it their mission to innovate new ways to solve food insecurity in their communities. Link below!
Ah yes your fond memories of the years you spent fighting side-by-side, blocking everything Obama ever tried to do to help your country and ushering in this national nightmare. You can follow him to hell.
Lindsey Graham and I had a complicated relationship. 🧵 Before Trump, we were friends. We traveled together on congressional trips around the world, including visiting Syrian refugee camps where we met children whose lives had been shattered by war. (Cont..)
I think Mamdani’s proponents and opponents both make too big a deal out of him. I like him. I think he’s good for Democrats in New York. I think he’d be bad for them in some other parts of the country. And that’s fine. He knows to stay in his lane. He won’t be endorsing anyone in Iowa or Texas.
NEWS: In a stunning upset, Mamdani-backed Darializa Avila Chevalier will defeat five-term incumbent Adriano Espaillat in the NY-13 congressional primary. With victories by Lander, Valdez, and now Avila Chevalier, Mamdani went 3-for-3 with his endorsements in New York City's Democratic primaries.
Yes they can eliminate the filibuster and actually pass all their progressive legislation and let Republicans pass their own legislation and then answer to the voters for it. The filibuster stops Democrats from bringing progress and protects Republicans from the consequences of their own extremism.
“Is there anything Democrats can do to break free of a deeply polarized political system in which parties are constantly winning and then losing office as voters reflexively turn against those in power?” Thomas Edsall asks.
“Sanders' office did not immediately respond to a request for comment.” Of course not, he’s incapable of acknowledging Black voters even exist. And Black voters see it. They view Sanders, his movement, and DSA as racist. Who could blame them? He can’t even put out a statement condemning the ruling.
Listening to this Republican fraudster pretend he’s bothered by yesterday’s Supreme Court ruling after he voted against a ban on gerrymandering and claimed Democrats forced him to do it is revolting. Kinzinger helped cause this tyranny. And now he pretends to be a good guy.
You asked for breaking news coverage. Here it is. Check out the new show and let me know what you think. www.adamkinzinger.com/p/breaking-n...

The upside of getting fired by Trump is that you’re probably about to lose your status as the worst in history to ever hold that position
Donald Trump has fired attorney general Pam Bondi, dismissing a loyalist who reshaped the justice department, but still failed to please a president fixated on prosecuting political enemies and frustrated with the politically explosive release of the Epstein files
One couldn’t be more wrong about the meaning of a song. This is up there with thinking “Born in the USA” is patriotic or “Every Breath You Take” is a love song. I’d be embarrassed for Moby, if he wasn’t so insufferable and trashing something so many queer people took strength from.
Kinks guitarist Dave Davies hits back at Moby for calling 1970 single Lola ‘gross and transphobic’
Well I’d say it seems to have been a great career move for you. By the way, some of us still remember you voted against healthcare reform, voted against voting rights, voted against banning gerrymandering, and blamed Biden for Trump surrendering to the Taliban.
“How does it feel to be a pariah within your own party?” A question I’m still living with today because I refused to compromise my values. "The Last Republican" is available now for FREE on YouTube. Head to the link in my reply to watch.
So what happens next time when it’s real cops looking for a real missing child but someone lawfully refuses entry because they’re afraid it’s ICE? Real cops and their unions need to loudly condemn this or accept the public can’t trust them and shouldn’t cooperate with them.
Columbia University says federal immigration agents entered a residence hall under the guise of searching for a missing person and then arrested Ellie Aghayeva, a student from Azerbaijan. n.pr/3OAlkhD
