Trump & co said the quiet part out loud today: these BOGUS lawsuits are about subverting elections & itโs because heโs scared of YOUR vote Suing now bc your guy might lose later? Like all their election shenanigans: sow chaos & cling to power It's not going to work -TN

Official US policy is that Ukraine is a strategic partner, and Russia is an adversarial threat to US interests. Trump himself formalised it in Feb 2026. It was still the case when Starlink went down. If a US citizen harms allies and assists adversaries in a war, that's treason.

โDonald Trumpโs treachery was predictable and predicted. Even so, watching him throwing a financial lifeline to Putin as the monstrous mob boss murders Ukrainians is sick-making stuff. The presidentโs โOctober Supriseโ was a stab in the back.โ charliesykes.substack.com/p/russia-rus...

Well then start contempt proceedings now
This judge is not fucking around ๐ฅ Trump bulldozed ahead with cutting down hundreds of trees at the historic East Potomac Golf Links, despite a federal judgeโs warning. She ordered work stopped & warned: โIf that order is violated by as so much as two seconds, there will be contempt proceedings.โ

The @houstonchronicle.com posted this video and it's pretty jarring. No matter that he was fleeing, law enforcement officers may not use deadly force on someone who poses no significant risk of death or serious injury to others. Deliberately hitting someone with a car is a use of deadly force.
Harris County TX. He's hospitalized: "ICE claimed the man ran in front of the agents' vehicle and was struck. However, the surveillance video appears to show the SUV veering left through empty parking spaces before running the man over..." abc7.com/story/ice-ru...

"If any of the defense secretaries under Presidents Biden, Obama, or Bush had gotten this degree and range of pushback from top uniformed personnel, there would be immediate congressional hearings, calls for resignations, and talks of impeachment."

If Dems take back the House, Hakeem Jeffries must not become Speaker. The Dem Party, the entire country, needs a Speaker who will meet this moment. By meeting with Jared Kushner, Jeffries proved he cannot meet this moment. Give this a read.๐ socialcontractwithjoewalsh.substack.com/p/hakeem-jef...

Trump is set on destroying our country and leaving us all bankrupt
So, 47 is importing 300,000 tons of cut rate ground beef & ranchers are pissed off but the best part? He wonโt say from where this meat is coming. ๐คข iowacapitaldispatch.com/2026/08/21/b...

As if assaulting people and shooting people in the streets wasnโt enough. Now, theyโre spending $20 million of YOUR taxpayer dollars on painful electric shock gloves for their masked, lawless goons. ICE must be stopped.

Yale is on the verge of cutting a deal with Trump to change its admission procedures. Reminder for any school dealing with Trump's extortion: You can't appease a tyrant. Surrendering to authoritarianism only invites more of it.

GOP picking on Fauci while this is happening?? What is RFK JR doing?
I'm old enough to remember when polio put my friends into iron lungs. We dutifully lined up at school to get vaccinated. We eradicated the disease. We protected the common good and saved lives. What RFK Jr. is doing to public health in America is a disgrace.

Remember Harlan Crow, the GOP megadonor who took Clarence Thomas on luxury vacations? He just loaned three statues to be displayed in Trump's paved-over Rose Garden. What will he ask for in return? www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
Yes! Every state should do this to protect the integrity of our elections @abigailspanberger.com
Sending ICE Agents to intimidate voters at polling places, declaring martial law to try to delay or cancel the election, seizing ballots-As he gets more desperate, there's nothing he won't do to try to save his pathetic orange ass. ALL states should preemptively prepare to defend Democracy! ๐บ๐ธ โ
