Miami just canceled its November election & pushed it to 2026. No public vote, just canceled. Mayor Suarez & Joe Carollo get to stick around an extra year. This feels like a power grab. If one city can delay elections for “participation,” what’s to stop others from doing it to silence opposition?

Arbeit Macht Frei

Contrary to popular opinion, not every insane, corrupt, maniacal thing they do is calculated to distract us from a thing you think is more important. They aren’t usually playing 4-D chess here. The majority of time it is just because they’re insane, corrupt and maniacal.

Lawrence O'Donnell has been reporting in a way that is the verbal equivalent of kicking someone in the balls — and then doing it again, just for good measure. That's the kind of reporting we need. Not this candy-ass, sugar-coated BS so many others are putting out. #LawrenceGetsIt

Well that was quick

Emil Bove was Donald Trump’s personal lawyer and at the Department of Justice, he has served as Trump’s chief enforcer. Most importantly to Trump, Bove is also a true believer in the Big Lie, which is exactly why Trump wants him on the 3rd Circuit. Paige and I discuss. youtube.com/watch?v=kCb9...

Yes, I agree — it would be terrible. Please do NOT share this information!!!

The best way to reduce the cost of Medicaid is to name and shame big employers that pay their full time employees so little, they qualify for Medicaid

While vaccine policy is being unraveled at ACIP, let’s not lose sight of what vaccines have already done. ✨Millions of lives saved. ✨Diseases wiped out. ✨Generations protected. We made an infographic to show just how much the world owes to vaccines. #VaccinesSaveLives

Be fair, Aaron. Pete Kegseth is an expert in getting bombed.

To help put Mamdani's win in perspective: NYC has a population greater than all but 12 US states ( 8.48 million puts it ahead of Washington, and just behind Virginia): States w/lower populations than NYC are highlighted in red. Source: www.reddit.com/r/MapPorn/co...

If you’re zip-tying grandmas protesting losing health care maybe you’re not the good guys in the story?

And then this shit just came out. When you’re making over $700k a year, gaining $12k is nothing. It’s a nice vacation, redoing the garage, giving a niece/nephew a car. When you’re making $23k a year, losing $1600 is “are we paying for food or for the house or for medical bills” territory.

Mr. Trump, Had I conceived a prize for Buffoonery or the loud squawking of a gilded jackass, you’d be thrice adorned. But Peace? That I gave to Mr. Obama, bearer of hope. I remain your indifferent servant, Alfred Nobel #BlueCrew #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice #Trump #Obama #Iran #Israel #Peace

Regret voting to confirm RFK Jr., Senator?? HE LIED. Which is par for the course for your party. Don't get yer knickers in a twist now. You had a chance to stop it and you didn't. And you being a "medical doctor" makes that WORSE. Pffft 🖕. www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...

KELLY: Does HHS's vaccine webpage reflects the department's view on covid vaccines? RFK JR: I haven't seen the website KELLY: It's kind of troubling that you're unaware of what your own department's website states. It says they're safe and effective.

SCHRIER: Have you ever treated measles? RFK JR: No SCHRIER: Well I have. Let me tell you how miserable these kids is. The great thing is there's a vaccine to prevent it ... they only work if you actually give them

Mitch McConnell has a net worth of up to $52 million, and has had high quality government-financed healthcare for decades. Losing your healthcare, losing your loved ones, losing your life, isn’t something people should be told “get over it.”

VEASEY: You've credited the 12 steps in your recovery. What's step 4? RFK JR: Making a fearless inventory VEASEY: Of ourselves. Do you remember step 12? RFK JR: We try to help other addicts VEASEY: Does cutting off treatment from people still suffering align with step 4 or step 12?

Why do they lie about EVERYthing? They seem to think we're not gonna find out...

NEW VIDEO: A key provision of the GOP’s budget bill that sought to limit judicial power is dead under Senate rules following a challenge from Democrats. Paige and I explain. www.youtube.com/watch?v=OJYC...

Damn right!!!

So, where are you?

While the country braces for the possibility of attacks from Iranian sleeper cells, we can all rest easy knowing that Trump’s put this 22 year old former part-time grocery clerk and landscaper, in charge of terrorism prevention. He’s got zero experience. NEVER worked in counter-terrorism. SMDH
