BREAKING: In a stunning announcement, Senator Lisa Murkowski just announced she will vote no on Donald Trump’s SAVE Act. This will likely kill Donald Trump’s last hopes of passing the bill. Let’s go.

@Daily_Press Workers rights are human rights, including the right to collectively bargain / negotiate for a fair contract. Bravo to the City of Newport News for standing up for the public servants such as firefighters, police, and public works employees who serve the city every day.

BREAKING: President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris are set to unveil a series of Supreme Court reforms, including stronger ethical guidelines and term limits for Justices.

Dems should dust off this bad boy.

BREAKING: Donald Trump has fallen asleep during Don Jr’s speech. Looks like Donald Trump was one of the many participating in the 20% drop off in viewership of the Republican National Convention since 2016.

“A focus group yesterday of voters who chose Trump in 2016 and Biden in 2020—and who dread and oppose Trump—was unanimous that Biden could not serve another term. Most of them said any new candidate would beat Trump, and most people they knew would agree.” https://t.co/iFLWd8V47R

So much unity at the RNC. I mean there's Matt Gaetz trolling Kevin McCarthy, who in turn reminds him that he allegedly slept with a 17 year old.

Mitch McConnell gets loudly boo'd after a lifetime of service to destroying democracy for GOP donors. Mike Pence is probably hiding for his life. Amber Rose brutally roasted by Matt Walsh.

Meanwhile the entire (mostly white) crowd yelling "Fight! Fight!"

Such a positive, uplifting message. I think Trump has changed!

J.D. Vance will not unify us.

He is an election-denying MAGA extremist.

Another missed opportunity to bring America together.

I'm sorry but I just can't get over this.

A man DIED while ATTENDING A TRUMP RALLY, catching the bullet intended for Donald Trump, and that sleazy piece of shit hasn't even called the family yet? Are you fucking kidding me?

Neighbors said the Trump shooter had Trump signs outside his home.

John Lennon was killed by his own fan too 👇

Some would love for workers to take Trump at his word & forget what he did as President. But we didn't forget. And Project 2025 shows he'll pick up right where he left off: dissolving unions, gutting worker protections, & defunding whole parts of the government people rely on.

@BidenHQ Who needs no-fault, divorce, right? ….Or healthcare, for that matter.

[Michael Harriot @michaelharriot]

Wait….

The wife of Trump’s VP pick clerked for chief justice John Robert AND Brett Kavanaugh?

I’m sure that won’t matter in a disputed election.

The legal max a person can donate to a candidate is $3300.

But, when billionaires like Elon Musk exploit our broken campaign finance laws to donate $45 million a month to a candidate, we’re no longer a democracy and it’s no longer an election — it’s an oligarchy and an auction.
