When you walk to the edge of all the light you have and take that first step into the darkness of the unknown, one of two things will happen. You will be taught how to fly 🦅or you will step on solid ground. 🌎 DO NOT MESSAGE ME. You will be blocked.
The president had his DOJ seizing ballots while he is trying to force Republicans to enact new voter suppression laws. Our democracy is in danger.

Zelensky to Trump in August: We have developed amazing, inexpensive drone interceptors that shoot down Iranian Shaheds that we can provide you in case you are ever in another conflict with Iran.
Trump: No we’re good. We’re the US - you have nothing we need. You have no cards.
JUST IN: Democrats flip a seat in the New Hampshire state House.
Dem Bobbi Boudman has won today’s special election, NHJournal reports.
(Boudman was the Dem nominee in 2024 & lost by 14%; Trump won here by 9%.)
This is Dems’ third legislative flip so far this year, after Texas and Arkansas.
Schatz: We don’t know for sure, but the likely bombing of an elementary school with one of our Tomahawk missiles is not a one-off mistake. It is the result of a change in policy so that the United States has way looser rules of engagement — way more tolerance for civilian harm.
This is clearly fine with the GOP.
They hate me because I fight. They attack me because I win.
I will do everything I can to protect free and fair elections. I will never back down.
🔵 Democrats flip another seat in the New Hampshire State House.
Democrat Bobbi Boudman wins a special election in a Trump+9 district, after losing the same seat by 14 points in 2024. A 13-point Democratic overperformance.
You can judge a family by the company it keeps.
Another statue of Trump and Epstein appeared at the National Mall. This one is in the style of Jack and Rose from the Titanic movie.
This press conference gave me chills. And not the good kind.
It’s not the Save America Act, it’s the Stop Americans Voting Act.
QUESTION: What the hell does “no men in women’s sports” have to do with voting?
ANSWER: Absolutely nothing. Republicans are trying to force Dems into bad optics.
If you think Jake Lang's career is over simply because he was caught secretly texting what he believed to be a 15 year old girl you're forgetting these people willfully elected Jeffrey Epstein's best friend as President of the United States
13 is middle school
Holy shit - this would be very, very bad:
"The databases, called “Numident” and the “Master Death File,” include records for more than 500 million living and dead Americans, including Social Security numbers, places and dates of birth, citizenship, race and ethnicity, and parents’ names."
Marco Rubio is corrupt as fuck.
Pete Hegseth accused Iran of "indiscriminate targeting."
Dude, you killed 168 people, many of them children, when you sloppily bombed a girls school.
And when you assassinated the country's former Supreme Leader, you also killed the current Supreme Leader's wife. Way to win hearts and minds, Pete!
WATCH: “Bill fails for lack of motion”
Jody Barrett’s abortion death penalty bill dies, failing to even get a motion to be heard from his own Republican supermajority
Not something you see every day. Impressive stuff, Jody! 😬
The Trump administration is gearing up to kick an estimated six million more people off of food assistance programs — including nearly two million children.
The move would save just $1 billion a year, while Trump spends upwards of $1 billion per *day* on his new forever war.
Priorities.
Marco Rubio's BFF is an accused foreign agent and money launderer. His trial is about to start — and Rubio is on the witness list.
My @vanityfair.com story on the legal bomb that's poised to go off in Trumpland.

🚨🚨 Dozens of documents detailing FBI interviews with an Epstein victim who accused Donald Trump of sexually abusing her as a 13-year-old are being kept under wraps.
ROGAN: "It just seems so insane based on what he ran on. I mean, this is why a lot of people feel betrayed. He ran on no more wars and these stupid, senseless wars. And then we have one that we can't even really clearly define why we did it."
(From home of the brave)
Weirdos
UPDATE: The Rep. Jody Barrett & Sen. Mark Pody abortion death penalty bill FAILED in the house
There are seven American dead from Iranian drones. We told Ukraine “no” when they offered us their drone defense in August that we’re now begging for.
Unacceptable
It was a lie, not an opinion. A blatant and obvious lie. Something he knew was a lie. And not just another one of the hundreds of lies he tells every day - a lie about the killing of at least 175 people, mostly girls who were attending school. bsky.app/profile/acyn...
Cult
trump just told the world that Iran somehow fired U.S. Tomahawk missiles at a girls’ school.
It’s either staggering incompetence or a blatant lie about a potential war crime.
I wrote about why this could finally topple his presidency. Read it here:

BREAKING: As many as 150 U.S. troops have been wounded in the war with Iran, according to sources familiar—far higher than the Pentagon’s publicly disclosed figure of just 8 seriously wounded troops. The true toll of this war is already far worse than the public has been told. (Reuters)
Speaker Johnson could call the House back and vote to fund TSA today.
Let’s be clear: long lines at the airports are a direct result of Republicans insisting ICE be able to defy court orders, kidnap and murder people and face zero consequences.
