They rely on public exhaustion to push through dirty deals and bury misconduct in the dark. Don't let them off the hook—hit Capitol Hill on these four fronts today:

Force the Full Release of the Unredacted Epstein Files

Kill the Yosemite Luxury Land Giveaway

Stop the 45 Million-Acre Forest Clearcut Rule

Force a Recorded Vote to Impeach Pete Hegseth

Two of thwme letters did not come up. I couldn't access the last 2. Only got 1st 2 done.

That “no fixed date” line made me put my phone down. A toddler doesn’t have a spare year. Rubio does.

Don’t donate your outrage to the algorithm and leave. Pick one race from the map section and tell one person who actually lives there.

Scott can dig the filing. We have to carry it. That’s the deal.

Thank you so much!

Rubio belongs in prison with the rest of the orange blight's regime! Not reviewing their cases after the judge ordered their deportations or arrests illegal is just another way of the regime targeting and oppressing immigrants.

Judy Sherwood's avatar

Yep, Liddle Marco is as smarmy and corrupt as the rest of them. They feed off one another.

Little Marco can be Micro Rubio.

ha ha!!! good one... tx for the chuckles.

Thirty-four days. That’s not a slogan. That’s enough time to text the people who checked out in August and tell them they’re allowed to want this again.

I’m grateful you’re here. Really. Take that feeling and hand it to somebody who thinks they’re the only one still paying attention. They’re not. We aren’t done.

The midterms are coming quickly and I’m in Texas for Talarico!

I would have that judge put an appropriate date and time limit on the decision being discussed.

I believe that Jack Smith was sent to save the nation from the Oligarchs! When he walked into Congress he doubled the amount of Integrity, Ethics and pure Common Sense in the room!

It’s so sad: Jack is an ethical, honest, Constitution-loving public servant doing his job very well. Republicans just can’t handle it, so they make up shit, insult and debase him and want to hang him.

REPUBLICANS. ARE. SHAMELESS. AND. SHAMEFUL. Each and every one of them should be investigated - they’re hiding something they’re scared will come out. So they attack mercilessly. Inexcusable and embarrassing - I’m so glad not to be one.

Jack’s permanently on my hero list.

Joanne Steacie's avatar

Wis, I so agree with you. Republicans are cowards, desperate, stupid and without decency. Jack Smith is a hero to me too.

Julie's avatar

I so agree with you about Jack Smith! So smart, honorable, and unintimidated. I believe he is on the cusp of being able to see all of his diligence and hard work come to fruition.

I'm exceedingly disappointed that Collin's overt corruption hasn't gotten more play in Maine media markets. it's effing OUTRAGEOUS that it isn't a frontpage headline and top of the news story every single day. I keep hearing "but, but, but...Senator Collins does SO much for Maine."

Well, no--she actually does not. She votes with her party 96% of the time; Susie only votes against her party when it doesn't affect the outcome. She does lots of photo ops, giving funds and grants for hospitals and fire departments and then, when we aren't paying attention, supports Trump when he rips away major funding for SNAP and Medicaid. She started out this campaign season still bragging about a sea wall that she helped find funds to repair ELEVEN YEARS AGO.

Susie hasn't held a town hall or any kind of public forum in 25 years. She visits Maine when she's up for re-election...otherwise she stays in Washington DC and she is completely out of touch with the real lives of Mainers. Her ads brag about her "humble beginnings" in The County (Aroostook County, for those not from Maine) where her parents were small business owners and "she picked potatoes" (just as every kid in The County does during the harvest) Well...BFD. that was 50+ years ago and things have changed just "a trifle", Susie. It wouldn't kill you to try holding a town hall and REALLY listen to your constituents, complaints and all...and, oh yeah, stop taking tainted money and making "pay-to-play" deals with worthless companies, howabout???

Thanks for your great investigative work here!

Should Republicans give back the Black family’s money?

Of course they should but we all know they won't - they apparently like "dirty" money.

Which Senate race are you watching closest?

Michigan, Florida, Texas and Maine

The regime told a judge it has “no fixed date” to finish reconsidering 43,000 visa cases. What would you say to Marco Rubio?

Get out while the getting's good, Lil Marco.

Georgia Lyster's avatar

Rubio should do his job and get busy! Leon Black is in the Epstein files and the pervert should be in the dampest darkest dungeon for all time. Not reporting income is a crime. My cat has better morals than the entire Republican Party!

I guess leaving a paper trail wasn't so smart, eh Boss??

Linda Orlick's avatar

TRUMPXHAUSTED! ENOUGH IS ENOUGH LET IT BE OVER!!!!

Joan Makurat's avatar

A blanket decision was made to hold these people on visa cases, a blanket decision can be made to release them.

Each day, I think of the absolute stress and fear people of color face under this regime. Every day life is stressful enough without having to worry if you are going to be brutalized by ICE.

This part about the Leo Garcia Venegas story really struck me: "DHS said it couldn’t even find a record of Leo’s June stop, but insisted it had good reason for doing so." Are they kidding??? So DHS denies detaining him but then says they had good reason to do so, despite just saying they never detained him. Do they really think people are not astute enough to see the bald face lying (and quite idiotic) response here?

We need to make abolishing ICE and holding all, including DHS and the for-profit concentration camps, accountable and a priority.

Joanne Steacie's avatar

Yes, yes, yes!!!!!, Julie

Any candidate that takes money from a crook should give the money back. However, the GOP candidate will never give the Black money back, because they are all crooks.

The race I am watching is the 3rd District in Washington state. It pits the Democratic incumbent, Marie Glusencamp- Perez against her GOP opponent, John Braun, in a very conservative southwest, Wahington state. Trump carried by 10% in 2024. However, his support is waning there, as his endorsement of Braun is considered the kiss of death.

I love this: it summarizes so much of trump’s complaining that it’s just too many individuals to treat like individuals… so ICE, the DOJ, all of the regime just puts all brown people into one category: undesirable, inhuman and deportable. It is literally criminal: ““[T]hose burdens arise from policy decisions independently made by the Executive Branch.” Translation: you made this mess.”

And what a mess it is.
