Duckworth: "Let's make it clear -- the President of the United States essentially just declared war on a major city in his own nation. This is not normal. This is not acceptable behavior."
Robert Reich shouldn't apologize that his new book "Coming Up Short" is #1 on the New York Times Non-Fiction Bestseller list.
"Essential reading for understanding this moment in American history.” - Molly Jong-Fast
Trump has always been jealous of Obama. Obama is younger, smarter, more popular, more handsome, and much more competent. That and Trump's a blatant racist.
Scott Jennings Does not care.
CNN does not care
The MAGA/QAnon 77 million Voters do not care.
The Republican House & Senate do not care.
The right wing SCOTUS does not care.
The Billionaires do not care.
Wall Street Corporations do not care.
The Project 2025 Christian White Nationalists do not care.
Setmayer: It really is something that I just cannot tolerate. When Trump supporters are trying act as though Trump supports and backs the blue. No he doesn't.
He did not defend the constitution. And he violated his oath of office. You know who said that? You did after January 6th
No, JD, belonging in America does not depend on how many generations of your family have lived here. The values of this country matter - deeply - to who we are and what it means to be American.
Jennings: They should go to work
Roginsky: So should congress. Why did they abandon the house to not vote on the Epstein files?
Jennings: It was the August recess
Roginsky: It was not the August recess. They left early.
Wow. A group of top scholars at Harvard just sent a letter to its president, Alan Garber, warning against surrendering to Trump.
Signatories include Steven Levitsky, Dani Rodrik, Ryan Enos, Theda Skocpol, and Steven Walt.
Someone forwarded it to me. Read it here:
NEW: Republicans confirm former Trump lawyer Emil Bove to lifetime appeals court perch
The vote is 50-49.
He's confirmed with only GOP votes.
Democrats + Murkowski + Collins vote NO.
(Hagerty missed the vote.)

Emil Bove should be in jail for crimes against our democracy, and his confirmation underscores the GOP’s full dissent into criminal conspiracy against the rule of law. A true rebuilding includes stripping this man of any titles, honors, or scraps of power.

The laws of war don’t just apply when it’s convenient.
Hamas is a brutal terrorist organization. But Netanyahu doesn’t get a pass. He is responsible for the pervasive starvation and famine, which is morally repugnant.
Feed Gaza.
Senate Republicans just voted to confirm Trump lackey Emil Bove to a lifetime judicial appointment.
The vote was 50-49. Sens. Susan Collins and Lisa Murkowski joined all Democrats in voting against Bove.
Several whistleblowers accused Bove of misconduct at the Justice Dept.
Phang: We hear this a lot from Republicans, “Oh, well, they came here illegally.” He went to a port of entry. He made an appointment, showed up for that appointment, had a future court hearing scheduled, and was also applying for Temporary Protected Status (TPS). What more was he supposed to do?
Americans pay taxes globally. That means if you live abroad, you pay your US taxes and you also file an FBAR with the department of treasury which lists all of your assets held domestically or abroad. To deny the right to vote would result in taxation without representation.
Trump didn't break with Epstein over being a sex predator and a pedophile. All that was fine. It's because Maxwell "stole" Virginia Giuffre from him. Disgusting.
You cannot undo laws of nature by changing the laws of the United States. You can only choose to kill people with your ignorance. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/29/c...
My God. Giuffre was brave enough to come forward against Epstein and died by suicide last year. And Trump is pissed at Epstein because… he hired her away from him? This man is a morally repugnant, empathetically empty ass.
Trump: People were taken out of the spa, hired by Epstein… I told him we don’t want you taking our people, whether it’s spa or not spa. He did it again, I said out of here.
Reporter: Was one of the stolen people Virginia Giuffre?
Trump: I think so. He stole her.
Social Security is a promise: if you work hard and pay in, you can retire with dignity. These cuts are a betrayal of seniors who count on Social Security to cover everyday living expenses.
The Trump Administration keeps claiming they’re the “most transparent” Administration in history.
But no matter how many times they say it, it doesn’t make it true.
Why are they covering up the Epstein files? Release them now.
NBC News' @jacobsoboroff.bsky.social reports on ICE raids taking place in Manhattan where federal agents arrest people they say are in the country illegally, but are at the facility to attend mandatory immigration court hearings.

NYC fell victim to the worst active shooting in recent memory. We are reminded yet again that the US remains the only industrialized country confronting a never-ending nightmare of mass shootings.
Gun violence is not an inevitability. It is a policy choice that we, as a society, must stop making.
And will they still employ the people who argue the other side or is there now a religious litmus test for civil service employment.
THE US IS NO LONGER A CONSTITUTIONAL REPUBLIC.
