American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

The optics of Trump building a ballroom that 99.9% of Americans will never set foot in while millions line up for food banks are worth more than any policy paper or economic proposal. This image is a visceral punch in the mouth that needs no words. It should haunt the GOP for a generation.

A terrific AFP fact check uses reverse image searches to expose how a White House video took scenes from Florida, Texas, South Carolina and Nebraska and lied that they showed "Chicago is in chaos."

7/ Democrats need to stand for something right now. And what need, to vote for this budget, is pretty simple and reasonable:
Don't cut people's health care just to pay for a billionaire tax cut.
Don't fund Trump's growing authoritarianism without checks on his corruption.

It looks like Trump's hand picked Supreme Court isn't going to stop him from rescinding money that Congress already agreed to use.
How can Democrats agree to a Republican budget that lets Trump delete the parts of it he doesn't like?

‼️Beyond the anger, I feel such utter sadness at the corruption in this country's leadership that uses corruption to ensure they stay in power so they can do more corruption to stay in power.
The National Archives under the Trump administration released @mikiesherrill.bsky.social full, unredacted Navy personnel file to Jack Ciattarelli's campaign.
This is an unprecedented and illegal weaponization of the National Archives and private, personal records to attack a political opponent.

The murder of Charlie Kirk could have united Americans to confront political violence. Instead, Trump and his anti-democratic radicals look to be readying a campaign to destroy dissent.

Of course, many reports of ICE thugs grabbing American citizens, brutalizing them & throwing them into detention ignoring their pleas that they are citizens. One can imagine this from Kavanaugh: “There is no problem requiring Jews to wear yellow stars. It’s just to identify them. No harm no foul”
This is a paragraph Brett Kavanaugh wrote on his little computer and then sent out into the world:

Bottom line: The final text of the EU-US trade deal delivers $5,000 less to the average American household than the handshake agreement Trump boasted of on August 5.
Text of the US-EU trade deal is out: www.whitehouse.gov/briefings-st...
The most important thing is what's not there. Trump had boasted "They gave me $600 billion, and that’s a gift." But guess what? They didn't. He didn't get a penny.

The left better start figuring out how to weaponize today's decision rather than just (rightfully) criticizing it.
- Go back into Judge Kaczmaryk's court to dissolve all of his nationwide orders.
- Pass gun bans and insist any order applies only to plaintiffs.

If the feds’ objective is to “liberate” Los Angeles and California from its democratically elected leadership, then this not a peacekeeping mission but a program of invasion.
Kristi Noem: "We are not going away. We are staying here to liberate the city from the socialists and the burdensome leadership that this governor and that this mayor have placed on this country and what they have tried to insert into the city."
