OBAMA: When I was president, all these Republicans are all deficits, deficits, debt, debt. You got to do something about it. And now—$40 trillion—Crickets. Somehow deficits only matter when a Democratic president is in office

Our nation is in grave danger. But across America I’m seeing stirrings of a giant backlash. People rising up and hitting the streets. People getting out the vote. Our fight — for democracy, the rule of law, social and economic justice, and decency — is gaining ground. I believe we will win.

Seth Bodnar cannot attack her on policy. Because her platform is popular w/Montanans & he doesn’t actually have policies. So he manufactures outrage. I didn’t see him address Kyle Austin’s racist comments in the debate. Bankhead spoke first, then Austin, then Bodnar. Why didn’t he say anything?

The people who know how to run our military are being driven out. How do people who care to have strong leaders fight this erosion of competence?

I'm a Democrat and glad to find I agree with this Independent! Let's agree that winning does not require policies to make things worse for people. And let's make it happen!

I’m independent but never disagreed with Dem Progressive policies. I do abhor Dem cowards who betray us to woo R’s who always vote to make everything worse for us while working for Billionaires. Try giving voters what we want and win. Dem cowardice betrays decent voters. #VoteDecent

Just when heroes we had been systematically ignoring were about to be memorialized appropriately, this happens. I'm disgusted.

The Navy may change the name of a warship to honor a brave black man who served honorably in the Pearl Harbor attack to the name of a cowardly draft dodger who is so ignorant he didn’t even know what happened at Pearl Harbor, according to his then Chief of Staff accompanying him on the visit

This is unacceptable. People who can't get to farmers' markets deserve to have healthy food, too!

Thou must avoid eating jalapeños, salsa, guacamole, pico de gallo, iceberg lettuce, shredded lettuce, eggs, frozen blueberries, frozen mixed berries, ricotta, requesón, cuajada, tomato bisque soup, super greens, and moringa unless thou wishes to have explosive RFK Jr. diarrhea.

This is what you do when the primary is over, Montana friends!

NEW: Just got a lovely email from the Alex Vindman campaign asking us to UNITE behind Angie Nixon and to donate in support of her campaign. Thank you, @avindman.bsky.social! You can contribute here: angienixon.com

This is not my idea of how to do politics. Are these ersatz independents so desperate to win?

If we had a functional new media in this state, I would suggest asking Tester and O'Brien about this. What piece of shit he turned into.

High time! Too many people have suffered while a legal challenge was struggling to land.

Great news: the courts will have a chance to rein in the abuses at Camp East Montana, the infamous tent camp built on Fort Bliss in El Paso. I have known seasoned veterans of this field who visited the camp and came away saying it was one of the worst ICE detention centers they’d ever been to.

WHITE HOUSE: "The President is simply going to the hospital for his third annual check-up in 13 months. Nothing to see here. And, no, doctors are *definitely not* monitoring him for dementia or putting more IVs in his hands because he's seriously ill. I fact, forget we even said that, OK?"

Truth.

No one has hurt or betrayed or disrespected or disgraced the memory and sacrifice of our fallen troops as well as gold star families more than the treasonous draft dodging orange felon and his MAGA republican cult.

47 has a litmus test for judges. It can't be good to have a bunch of election deniers, who presumably know it's a lie, on the bench!

This is like pulling teeth! What are they hiding?

Journalist Katie Phang is suing the U.S. Justice Department over the Epstein files. Her lawsuit names acting Attorney General Todd Blanche and accuses the DOJ of failing to fully release the documents required under the Epstein Files Transparency Act.

Are they doing it on purpose to help Russia? I really begin to think so. How soon can we get them out of Washington?

Timothy Snyder@timothysnyder.bsky.social

It’s as if the Iran war was fought to sustain the Russian economy. Lifting sanctions for Russians does nothing for Americans. It just makes it easier for Russia to continue its war in Ukraine.

Another woman loses her post in the Trump administration. There are thise with more serious alcohol problems, doing more damage to the national interest, but they are men. When will Patel or Hegseth get his comeuppance?
