If you were a journalist or creative that was laid off by the Washington Post and you want to work for an independent, pro democracy news outlet, Democracy Docket is hiring. bit.ly/45Qaw4K
Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche needs to resign.
He got the law wrong about patronizing sex parties with alleged child trafficking. He failed to redact names of victims & pictures of children. AND he moved Ghislaine Maxwell to a minimum-security prison & got her a puppy.
"We'll take our stand for this land & the stranger in our midst..."
Powerful. Brutal. Inspirational. A loving tribute to Renée Good, Alex Pretti & the good people of Minneapolis.
Plus, it name-checks all the villains: the Puppy Killer🐶, Pee-Wee German🇩🇪, the Orange Atrocity🍊💩 & above all: ICE🧊🚫

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.
Stay free
Remember that the legal standard for deadly force is whether the agent reasonably believed that he was in imminent danger of death or serious bodily injury.
That is the only question that matters. And that standard is plainly not met by what we see in the video.
SHOCK CELL PHONE VIDEO: Renee Good's final words to her murderer: “That’s fine dude, I’m not mad at you.”
ICE agent Jonathan Ross after shooting and killing her seconds later: “Fuckin’ bitch.”
Via Alpha News
For those keeping score, Bellingcat, The New York Times Visual Investigation Team, & Washington Post's Visual Forensic team have all published analysis showing the ICE shooter wasn't in the path of Renee Nicole Good’s vehicle when he shot her, contradicting statements by the President & his cronies
This Jack Smith deposition makes one thing abundantly clear:
If Donald Trump wasn’t re-elected, he’d be spending the rest of his life in prison.
And he should be.
BREAKING: WATCH the full 60 Minutes CECOT segment here. This was sent to me anonymously. It appears to be the segment CBS' Bari Weiss killed. www.muellershewrote.com/p/watch-the-...
On tonight’s episode: Pam Bondi lunges at Lindsey Halligan: "You ruined my James Comey revenge!" Halligan yells, “You were the idiot who let the statute of limitations run!” A drunk Jeanine Pirro pushes them apart. Pam snarls at Pirro: “I’m not through with you, Miss Can’t Get a Fucken Indictment!”
To anyone who thinks it’s an “exaggeration” that the rule of law is in danger…
U.S. Senator Mark Kelly is being investigated for the “crime” of telling people not to commit crimes.
We’ve fallen far.
Meiselas: If Trump was just some crappy, scummy billionaire who lived in Florida, do you think I'd give a crap? My issue is this freaking loser, this con artist, this grifter, this scammer has brought his life of scamming, bankrupting and destroying to the American people, who are now suffering.
Twitter implemented a new feature last night that displayed the country an account is in. So many of the ‘America First’ accounts were from foreign countries that they had to disable the feature within hours. 🙄
Kelly: "I never expected after serving 25 years in the Navy flying combat missions over Iraq and Kuwait, flying the Space Shuttle, that now I've got to worry about my personal safety and that of my wife, Gabby Giffords, who was already nearly assassinated, because of something the president said."
NEW: 2020 footage said to be in 2025. A neighbor who keeps reappearing in the same clip, said to be on different days & months. A broadcast from elsewhere suggested as Portland.
How Fox News misled its viewership -- which may have included the president.

He orders extrajudicial killings. He sent troops into our cities. He terrorizes citizens with ICE raids. He raised taxes without congressional approval. He has ruined American farmers and ranchers. He plans to starve the vulnerable. He demolished our house.
Remove him from office.
An unprecedented violation of our civic and Constitutional traditions. Calling every military leader in the world back to the U.S. to hear a wildly inappropriate partisan campaign speech followed by a fascist call to use the military against Americans.
Big picture: Across ABC, YouTube and many social media platforms, Jimmy Kimmel's monologue about free speech in America has reached TENS of millions of people, and the view counts are still rising.
Dear Democrat Politicians,
Please stop sending me requests for money that contain the words “wake up America”. Seriously, we haven’t slept for 10 fycking years! Just stop.
#BREAKING: Judge Breyer has held that the Trump admin. *violated* the Posse Comitatus Act in its military deployments in and around Los Angeles, and has enjoined further use of those troops for law enforcement tasks. The order is stayed through 12 PDT on 9/12:

CNN says the Epstein story is dead based on google searches dropping, as if people need to continually search for the same information, so in order to keep it as a top story OUR job is to type "Epstein files" into google once a day every day.. do it now!
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
As the News Cycle has the memory of a fish - can I point out - Iran and Obama made a successful deal, cost us nothing but the inspectors. Sanctions were lifted. THe nuclear threat was stopped. Then Trump breaks the deal and re-imposes sanctions 2018. and today this is the result. Trump is a moron.
“When fighting for democracy, you never know if there will be another day. Fight everywhere you can, always… Concentrate on defending American rights and values against billionaires and autocrats who want to take them away… Resist on every level, at every opportunity.”

“Fight the authoritarians on everything. If stock market drops, scream about it. Because it’s their fault. When a kid dies of measles—their fault. Attack them every day, on whatever the latest thing is. Turn ‘flood the zone’ against them… Let’s get to work.”

So……
Who’s Dumpys daddy? Is it Putin who needs Iranian weapons for their war against Ukraine? Or does he saddle up with the other evil one Netanyahu who’s genociding Palestine to make way for Kushners big, beautiful Palestinian beachfront resorts.
He’s in a bit of a pickle. Who will he pick?
Raskin: And the moment that somebody in public office begins to act like the master of the people. That is the moment to evict, eject, reject, impeach, try, convict, and start all over again .
A Democratic Mayor arrested.
A Democratic Congresswoman indicted.
A Democratic Senator tackled and detained.
A Democratic State Representative killed.
A Democratic State Representative in critical condition.
We can all see where this is going.
