It was uplifting to see 500 folks show up to support our Veterans in St. Louis this morning. Very grateful for all who helped us organize it. A big thank you to thank you VoteVets and Fred Wellman, who helped make it a big success. @amberbenge.bsky.social @Stldems.bsky.social @maddow.msnbc.com

Images of US President Donald Trump and the UK’s Prince Andrew with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein were projected onto Windsor Castle near London on Tuesday, where Trump will be staying during his state visit. Police said four people were arrested.

I know I’m naive but it is pretty wild that the president of the United States just publicly declares he and the military killed some guys on a boat, multiple times, and the entirety of Congress doesn’t immediately hit a giant red IMPEACH button

If you are still on Facebook, this page is doxxing Missouri teachers for Charlie Kirk posts. You can report the page.👇🏻

Amazing photo of Windsor Castle taken last night

Release the Epstein files!!!

Why is the right so angry? They control the entire government and they’re still miserable f*cks. Joy Reid nailed it.

Hiding the truth.

Yes, release the Epstein files!!!

Now we know, they have no idea where the shooter is, or even who the shooter is...for that matter. I mean, what could go wrong when you have an FBI Director with no experience...and an idiot president who insisted on firing the most experienced and longest serving experts at the FBI.

A nationwide protest against billionaires is planned on September 20, and we have one in STL, close to Ann Wagners office at Weidman and Manchester. Save the date, & make your signs!

Sunday at 7am ET - Missouri State Rep. Jeremy Dean (D) & @rayreedmo.bsky.social

Ossoff: He never should have been confirmed by the senate and he needs to resign. It is one thing to be a skeptic or a reformer. It is quite another to be a fool…

The head of the CDC who resigned today said on MSNBC, it became obvious to him that RFK Jr believed in Eugenics. The theory was popular and practiced by Hitler. RFK believes that the survival of only the fittest will lead to a stronger race. Hence no more childhood vaccines, no more COVID shots

BREAKING: Kilmar Abrego has been RELEASED from prison and is headed home to Maryland to be with his family. Judge Xinis has an order in place requiring a 72 hour notice if ICE decides to detain and deport him to a third country. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

🚨 Supreme Court allows Trump administration to terminate $783 million in NIH grants linked to DEI initiatives. Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson: “‘There are no fixed rules. We seem to have two: that one, and this [Trump] Administration always wins.’” www.scotusblog.com/2025/08/supr...

Looking forward to John Bolton’s next book “I wish I had said something sooner”. (Working title)

Krishnamoorthi on the FBI raiding Bolton's house: "It looks like it's also an attempt to distract from the other big news of the day, which is the first production of the Epstein files that is required by subpoena from the Oversight Committee and they want to change the conversation."

If you aren’t uncomfortable learning our country’s history, you are learning propaganda.

This is what I tell my friends who don’t understand why I spend time on Bluesky or Substack.

Usually, I am no fan of gerrymandering by either party, but I am tired of fighting with one hand tied behind my back. Tired of bringing balloons to a gun fight. Tired of playing by the rules when one party stopped doing that decades ago. open.substack.com/pub/jesspipe...

Federal agents violently detained a food delivery driver as he emerged from a D.C. coffee shop Saturday morning. The incident captured on video showed the officers throwing him to the ground and beating him before sweeping him away in an unmarked vehicle. wapo.st/45Egtkc

NEW VIDEO: Marc Elias gives his weekly update on what’s happening to our democracy and the court cases you need to watch. This week, we’re giving you the most up to date news on DC’s battle with Trump, SCOTUS’ hearings this fall, a very big voting rights win, and more. 📺 Watch now:

71% of Americans believe Trump knew exactly what Epstein was up to. Trump knows he's screwed bc of it. So screwed in fact, he has to try to shut down voting, gerrymander districts, embarrass a foreign leader, and embarrass US in his meeting with Putin... This is all desperation.

Trump is willing to cut Medicaid but not his golf trips

Excellent Truisms!👇

I know rural America because I live here. I know rural inside and out and I speak on it often because almost no one else does. I have the market on rural politics cornered because not many think it’s worth cornering. But it is. jesspiper.substack.com/p/they-cant-...

Odd, how South Park is covering Kristi Noem and her ICE hooligans more accurately than The New York Times.

Public media has been defunded. Your support keeps journalists on the ground, lifts unheard voices, and connects communities. Help us plan for what’s next. Make a monthly gift today. Stand with public media: n.pr/458sOhq

He is really a brilliant comic.

We must stay involved, no matter how much we feel beaten down by the constant bad news. We are fighting for our lives, and it’s not the time to let the Fascists win. Volunteer, organize, and get involved. open.substack.com/pub/abenge/p...

AOC: "On this point of tax on tips, as one of the only people in this body who has lived off of tips, I want to tell you a little bit about the scam ... the cap on that is $25,000 while you're jacking up taxes on people who make less than $50,000 across the US ... while kicking them off the ACA."

Riley: Don’t tell me you give a shit about the middle class when all you are doing is shitting on the middle class

Poor white MAGA voters will support cuts to Medicaid in order to save on “waste, fraud and abuse” the way many Latino voters supported Trump because he was only going to deport criminals.

They plan to roll back green energy investments. That will spike our utility bills while warming our planet. A double hit only the GOP could conjure.

I obtained this from a community member minutes after arriving on scene following a raid at the Cypress Park Home Depot this morning. they detained day laborers.

I sure as hell have noticed. How about you? 🤨

Brilliant. 10/10. No notes.
