WOW: Mississippi Democratic Senate candidate Scott Colom says he went DIRECTLY to Trump's rally and spoke with people waiting in line. Some weren't even there to support Trump. One told him they were attending because there was “nothing else to do” — but planned to VOTE FOR COLOM.

AOC: "As AI begins to encroach in our society, their goal is to take your cognition away from you. AI's goal is to take your thoughts away from you, your ability to think away from you, so that you become dependent on a machine ... reading books is active resistance"

This Saturday, we’re taking action with No Kings in all 50 states to make our voices heard and defend our democracy.

Again: don’t get complacent. Polls look great, but polls don’t vote. Ignore this shit and vote like we’re down by 3%

WSJ wrote a 1,300-word article abt the MS Senate race w/o mentioning Callais once. Definitely worth reading it--it's far better than that Axios ragebait abt MI you're all whining about. But they don't even talk abt how much Trump has fucked over farmers. www.wsj.com/politics/ele...

Democratic turnout this election is going to be off the charts for a midterm. Rage is a powerful motivator.

How is it not news when the president nods off in public meetings and press conferences dozens of times? If you follow independent media, you see it and know about it. But why hasn’t CBS, NBC or ABC showed a montage of it on their evening news? They simply refuse to ever show it.

"A brand new CNN poll shows President Trump at an all time low in his approval rating... look at his net approval rating now with pure independents - it's negative 71 points! I mean, these are the deep depths of the ocean. You never see numbers like these. An 86 point shift away from the president!"

No country needs regime change more than America does.

Insane! #Pinks #USDemocracy

Donald Trump’s economy.

I wrote about a group of Black dads who are building community by meeting up for yoga, and a instructor who randomly drives up to people on the street for on the spot yoga sessions

I think the general consensus of people around the world is that Americans can get fooled by a con man once, but to return him to power a 2nd time after having seen his corruption, incompetence, ignorance, & buffoonery, the problem isn’t just Trump it’s the American people.

Can you guess how much the minimum wage would be today if it kept up with worker productivity over the years?

Name your fav book or book series from childhood.

on this day in 1854 Henry David Thoreau’s “Walden” is first published. “Live in each season as it passes; breathe the air, drink the drink, taste the fruit, and resign yourself to the influence of the earth.” “A man is rich in proportion to the number of things which he can afford to let alone.”

Dear American voter, It is August 6, 2026. Economic growth is slow, prices are up, housing and health care is unaffordable, we are in a war Trump started, we are $39 trillion in debt, corruption in govt is rampant. What are Republicans focused on AGAIN today? Dr. Fauci.

He's done it folks He's crossed 60% disapproval

happy bday English writer/illustrator/conservationist Beatrix Potter, b.1866. “All outward forms of religion are almost useless, and are the causes of endless strife. . . . Believe there is a great power silently working all things for good, behave yourself and never mind the rest.”

How many more soldiers have to die for Trump’s ridiculous war? How many more billions do we have to spend? How many more thousands is it going to cost American families in higher prices? When will Republicans in Congress finally stop acting like neutered cultists?

the World Cup final will be between two teams that Cape Verde played even through 90 minutes

Needs no words from me. Emily Maitlis nails it.

Iran War disaster. Knicks game loss. Hail at Mt. Rushmore on July 3. Sandstorm in DC on July 4. 4-1 World Cup loss. Trump is like a traveling pestilence.

Juneteenth marks the celebration of America's second independence day. Like the people in this photo—Texans celebrating Juneteenth in 1900—we know that progress hasn't made our union perfect. But we can recommit to reaching toward that more perfect union together. Happy Juneteenth.

If you watch the Obama Library, the World Cup, and the Knicks parade this afternoon -- and nothing else -- you can actually see the America we're supposed to be at age 250

All the Iran hawks said that the way to get rid of Iran’s hardline regime, nuclear program, missiles, and support for terrorism was to go to war with Iran. We went to war with Iran. And the hardline regime, nuclear program, missiles and terrorism aid are all still there.

#ObamaAppreciationDay

To recap the Knicks game, Trump: Inconvenienced everyone. Cost businesses money. Got booed. Fell asleep. Jinxed the Knicks.

Dear ABC and @espn.com, Please don't edit out the boos Monday night at MSG. ~ All of us

Happy Orthodox Star Wars Day to all who celebrate. The movie that changed movies forever is 49 years old today!

Q: What was it that made you break with Trump? Trump voter: Just seeing the lies. He put us in a war. He's putting up gold statues of himself. When are people going to wake up? All those stupid rallies I went to...I got rid of my Make America Great Again hat. I can't even believe I wore that hat.

Kudos to the #NAACP for asking black athletes and their parents not to send their athletes to Red State universities. Now tell the NFL players union to do the same to the #Superbowl in Jim Crow state, Tennessee!

The first honest thing he’s said

Let’s all post it and see if they indict all of us.

With so much awful news, here is something to brighten your day:
