The founders believed that if a madman became president, members of Congress would serve the country’s interest and remove him from office. That seemed a reliable system to safeguard the republic. Boy, did they screw up.

Same. Hard same

Kristi Noem has done a stunning amount of damage and it’s good she’s gone. But this doesn’t change the fact that we need a complete overhaul of DHS, impartial investigations into the killings of two American citizens, and information on children that were taken from Minnesota.

I want us to understand this in the context of these same people killed affirmative action using Chinese-American plaintiffs because they said helping Black people was discriminatory against Asian Americans and anti-merit. Once again: it was never about that. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

An ICE agent shot and killed Ruben Ray Martinez, a US citizen and San Antonio resident, in March 2025. Then ICE and the Texas Department of Public Safety covered it up. He was 23 years old. I am calling for a full investigation into this shooting, including why there was an 8-month cover up.

Linda Davis, a K-8 special education teacher, was killed today after ICE pursued a driver fleeing a traffic stop in Georgia. Linda Davis is one of many people who have died after coming into contact with ICE. The government doesn't record these deaths, but we do.

Linda Davis, a beloved Savannah teacher, is dead. Her car was hit by a suspect fleeing from ICE. Chatham County, Georgia has a no-chase policy. ICE still chased the suspect through a school zone. ICE agents did not directly kill Linda Davis, but their actions contributed to her death.

He aint lying.

.@PabloReports: What do you make of the White House blaming the police for what happened on January 6th? Lieu: The White House’s statement is batshit crazy.

Many of us are exhausted having worked to learn the truth of our own history on our own, but also having to learn the history of American white people that most white ppl refuse to learn. That is partly why when you say “why are you surprised” it’s so annoying. Believe me, we are not surprised!

Again

Racial profiling is all they do. Lawless.

Whew! Geesus. Megyn. GURL!!!

BREAKING: At least 18 Palestinians have been killed and about 50 others injured in Israeli air strikes across Gaza, medical sources on the ground told Al Jazeera. 🔴 LIVE updates: aje.io/11lhsx

A man who worships himself will eventually demand a temple. When democracy grows weak, a vain man will always try to crown himself. The next President should pledge to dismantle this monument to vanity and turn the White House into what it ought to be, a home for a servant of the people.

Release the Epstein Files, Pam Bondi and the GOP!

The Hoods Are OFF! The GOP Embraces Nazis If Republicans no longer want to be compared to Nazis and racists, then maybe they should stop supporting Nazis and promoting white supremacist talking points. thelefthook.substack.com/p/the-hoods-...

Today as we celebrate Indigenous Peoples’ Day, we honor the tribal communities here in Maryland. Their resilience, culture, and history make our state stronger. Today and every day, we honor those contributions.

I agree!

ICE detained her son—now his mom says he's just disappeared. "He called me panicking," she said. "I said, 'Where are you going?' he did not know and he only had 30 seconds to talk to me." Isai Cabrera has lived in U.S. since he was 7 months old—and is adopted by U.S. citizens.

Trey Reed, a student at Delta State University in Mississippi, was found hanging from a noose. Mississippi police ruled the death a suicide. Now an autopsy reportedly concludes that he suffered extensive blunt force trauma across his body before he died, meaning he was beaten before he was lynched.

Most of the power authoritarians have is freely given. We should not comply with them in advance. Trump is far weaker than he looks. So is the GOP. We should draw them out, drain them at every opportunity, and fight for people’s wellbeing at every turn. We have been sent here to fight for people.

The government is officially shut down. Make no mistake: Republicans control the House, the Senate, and the White House. This is THEIR shutdown. They had every tool to govern and chose chaos instead. The American people are the ones paying the price.

Republicans have the keys to the kingdom. The White House. The Senate. The House. Tonight, they have used their power to shut down the government. The American people, including our patriotic federal workers, will pay the price for Republicans' callousness and incompetence.

I agree with you, Soraya.

Democrats can just stop sending me fundraising texts. I am not giving another cent for them to DO NOTHING. They better get it togethah. Real fast. Do not fund this corrupt government. Do not sign off on any more asinine day of remembrances #Jeffries#Schumer

YES! It's about time! Finally someone reminding lawmakers about the Constitution. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

I so wish Conservatives would realize the irony of so desperately seeking a human kindness that they work tirelessly to withhold from others, a gentleness and decency they so often turn into a punchline. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/the-right-...

Yes, please. And thank you.

America voluntarily destroyed itself in the dumbest way possible. It's so painful and also darkly comic. I mean, it's just remarkable how the most incompetent and reckless people were elected. What else did people expect? All of this could have been avoided. Alas. We're in it, friends.

Yes. Tell us

62 years ago, 250,000 people gathered for the March on Washington. Dr. King's dream changed history through action. The Civil Rights Act, Voting Rights Act…ALL came from people who refused to stay silent. That energy lives in us now. Every vote, every stand we take matters.

Sen Patty Murray (D-WA): “If there are any adults left in the White House, it’s well past time they face reality… We cannot let RFK Jr. burn what’s left of the CDC and our other critical health agencies to the ground—he must be fired.”

Thank you, Amy Sherald.

Dear journalists: The President has not fired Lisa Cook. The President is *trying* to illegally fire her. Your words shape people’s reality. Please be accurate in your reporting.

Say it again for the people in the back with their hands over their ears.

Hey, Literally Every Media Outlet, It's not a Ukraine-Russian war; it's Ukraine defending itself against Russian occupation and annihilation. Thanks.

Last week, ICE arrested a six-year-old Queens public school student at her family's scheduled check-in. This morning, she was deported along with her mother. One of her siblings remains in detention. The cruelty of this federal administration knows no bounds.

Mail-in voting is safe. Period. Trump and Republicans know it. But they also know winning fair and square doesn’t look likely with their horrible policies and broken “promises.” That’s why they’re hell-bent on gutting voting rights. When you can’t win fair, you cheat.

Trump barred using a practice called disparate impact that uses statistical analysis to prove racial discrimination. But his administration is effectively using the same approach to accuse Harvard of reverse discrimination. www.bostonglobe.com/2025/08/18/m...

Cut immigration, cut labor supply, add tariffs on imports… and voilà: higher food prices.
