It looks like Lindsey Halligan misled a grand jury, prosecutorial conduct equivalent to committing perjury, in order to manufacture an indictment against James Comey for…

wait for it…

perjury.

I can’t believe they called prop 50 the moment polls closed. That tells you something. Most of these races were called within 45 minutes. It’s a BLOWOUT, y’all. THAT is what we call a MANDATE.

Strange how my FB & IG feeds are suddenly filled with sponsored religious propaganda "explaining" why SNAP is so bad, or claiming the No Kings rallies were just elderly "Q-Tips" as they called them, who have dimentia. Sounds like we're hitting some pressure points! 🤔 #NoKings #FDJT #FightFacism

The president just gathered the highest ranking officers in the military to tell them that he may order them to kill American citizens -- and that they better follow his orders. All in response to a series of crises that have no basis in reality.

I don't know how to yell any louder.

This is the playbook, folks.

If you're not paying attention now and doing something about it, then you're going to have to sit down the rest of your life because democracy is being taken away.

Do not be quiet in this moment.

ICE threw me and other protestors to the ground on Friday because we dared to stand up for our neighbors. I’m okay, but our communities aren’t.

We can't afford apathy or inaction from our leaders right now. Abolishing ICE is a moral necessity.

The other day, a successful immigrant with a good job voluntarily left the U.S. out of fear of being deported.

Samuel Kangethe boarded a flight to Kenya on Sunday. NPR was with him during his last two days in the U.S. Here’s his story: www.npr.org/2025/08/19/n...

This isn't "goodbye" my dear friend, it's just "see you later" for now... and hopefully a very short "see you later" at that!

Trump threatened Norway with tariffs over Nobel Peace Prize.

It's weird for a POTUS to be calling a foreign finance minister directly. Presidents speak to presidents (PMs, Kings/Queens).
Trump told Norwegian minister he wants Nobel Prize, newspaper says
When U.S. President Donald Trump called Norway's finance minister last month to discuss tariffs, he also told him he wanted the Nobel Peace Prize, Norwegian business daily Dagens Naeringsliv reported on Thursday.

It’s an act of self deportation, knowing the surge of immigration crackdowns across the U.S. could come for him next.

The distance between what is in happening Gaza, fully backed with US dollars and political support, and the reaction of American politicians who by and large just don’t seem to care or support it is just completely brain-breaking.
