Exactly. Which is the big one.. If we as the richest nation on the planet… (which most of us will never take part in) can’t take care of our own people, there is literally no reason for a Federal Government whatsoever. They’ve cut off world commerce for farmers, cut social programs for Americans.

If they cave, they will. If they stand firm… it’s all on the Republicans.

Don’t cave on CR. It would be malpractice for Democrats to bail out the corrupt and unlawful GOP regime for ACA alone. Dems should negotiate that separately. GOP will be desperate for it.

There should be no CR without enforceable guarantees that Trump‘s law breaking and impoundments stop.

This has nothing to do with crime. This is an attempt to crush political dissent.

Never before, in our entire 250 year history, has the military or immigration agents been used like this. It's dystopian, illegal, and it should stop.

SCOOP: Top GOP mapmaker Adam Kincaid testified for the first time about his role in Texas' gerrymandered congressional map, revealing that the RNC hired him to draw it. During his testimony, the state repeatedly shielded him from disclosing details about how the map was created.

Oregon AG Rayfield: The first thing that might’ve told you the federal government wasn’t doing so hot was when they started off some of their arguments by talking about Truth Social as their source of facts.

Actually got a comment from the judge: “Is this really how you’re going to move forward?”

NOTABLE -- Pam Bondi refuses to answer direct questions about if the FBI has incriminating photos of Trump with half-naked young women, but instead deflects from them by attacking Sen. Whitehouse

First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out,
Cause I was not a Socialist.

Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out,
Cause I was not a Trade Unionist.

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out,
Because I was not not a Jew!
Then they came after me!

This photo was taken of miners at the end of their shift during the Gilded Age before they were unionized.

A Labor Day reminder of the blood, sweat, and tears that those before us paid to give the working class the basic rights that Trump and his thugs are trying to strip away.

There is no world in which it is normal for the president to publicly call upon his attorney general to hurry up and prosecute his political foes. It’s like the Watergate tapes but posted on social media. Let’s get a grip on what’s happening here.
