Here’s your weekly reminder to vote, and to vote smart …

The Pennsylvania House passed a bill to allow child sexual abuse survivors to sue their abusers. Eighty Republicans voted against that.

Don’t forget.

 

Last week GOP Representative Thomas Massie did something Congress has avoided doing when he stood on the House floor and publicly named 14 people he says should be investigated and prosecuted as Jeffrey Epstein co-conspirators:

Jes Staley, Leon Black, Les Wexner, David Copperfield, Lapo Elkann, Tom Pritzker, Glenn Dubin, Frédéric Fekkai, Edoardo Teodorani, Jean-Luc Brunel, Daniel Siad, Ramsey Elkholy, Prince Andrew, and Lesley Groff

Massie took those names to the floor of Congress, put them into the public record, and is still pushing.

Massie is backing the Epstein Files Transparency Act II, which would give victims, state attorneys general and members of Congress legal standing to challenge the Justice Department in court over withheld or improperly redacted records. It would also give state and local prosecutors access to unredacted files when they are investigating possible violations of state law. Massie says the DOJ is still withholding more than 3 million Epstein-related files and he’s trying to open another legal path to get at them.

This is what congressional oversight is supposed to look like. Whatever you may think about Massie, he deserves credit for refusing to let this disappear.

But then … Speaker of the Huse, Republican Little Mike’s Johnson has canceled final two weeks of September sessions and plans to stop voting on anything after September 14, leaving DC until after the Midterms in November.

And all because Thomas Massie’s bipartisan push to force action on the unreleased Epstein files is gaining signatures.

Johnson and his GOP band of pedophiles and pedophile protectors were elected to govern, not run from accountability or work to only protect the Rapist In Chief.

Vote Blue.

 

The Republican Governor of Wyoming has asked the State Attorney General to look into the conduct of the Regime’s Department of Justice’s election observers deployed to the state for the recent primary election.

This is the Resistance.

 

While a group pf MAGAts were protesting in Portland recently, about 23 of them parked their cars at a local Fred Meyer’s store parking lot. They unloaded guns and body armor and batons from the January Sixth Collection™ and then carpooled to downtown Portland. To incite racist violence.

Fred Meyers had every single car towed at $1,000 a pop.

That’s the Resistance.

 

United Healthcare Group posted $6.25 billion in profits in the last quarter while also denying 32% of all prior authorization claims.

The made billions while denying one of every three medical requests.

People paid their premiums and United Healthcare Group denied their claims and kept their money.

This is American healthcare and it’s time it stopped.

 

NBC News has reported that Social Security benefits will be cut for tens of millions of retirees in late 2032 unless Congress takes action.

But if Bernie Sander’s Social Security bill is signed into law, Social Security would be solvent for another 75 years, benefits would go up by $2400, 91% of Americans would not pay a penny more in taxes and the wealthy would finally pay their fair share by scrapping the cap on all taxable income.

Vote Blue for change.

 

Cankles has literally done nothing his entire second term except rename things for no reason, enrich himself and his fellow pedophiles and rapists, get us into a war he’s too stupid to get us out of, and spend our money on tributes to himself.

That’s all.

 

Remember the Big Beautiful Bill now known as the Big Beautiful Delay since it doesn’t take effect until after the 2026 Midterms so as not to hurt Republicans who supported before the election? Here are some of the cuts coming after November …

Medicaid work rules.

Flood aid restrictions.

Clean energy credits end.

Student loan changes.

Affordable housing cuts.

Rural hospital funding declines.

The GOP hopes you forget these cuts and vote for them in November.

Spread the word.

Vote Blue for Change.

 

Major John "Alex" Klinner was from Trussville, Alabama. He joined the Air Force through ROTC and flew tankers for eight years, four deployments, 362 combat hours. On March 12 his KC-135 went down in western Iraq and Klinner and five other airmen died. He left his wife, Libby, and three children under three; Alabama lowered its flags; thirteen thousand strangers sent his family more than a million dollars.

On March 18, Cankles and DUI Hire Pete Hegseth stood on the tarmac at Dover Air Force Base as Alex Klinner came home. Pete Hegseth stood there. They knew his name in March. But last weekend, Libby Klinner posted this:

"The Air Force recently told me that because we haven't officially declared war, my kids and I aren't eligible for some benefits. So not only was my husband killed in a war he never wanted to participate in, but now the benefits we're left with are being dictated by semantics and public perceptions. Six months of a war that we can't call a war."

Her husband died under hostile fire in a combat zone but the paperwork won't use the word ‘war’ and this week the Vice President proved Libby right when he said:

"I wouldn't call it a war."

The same week, the Commerce Secretary said there had been no American deaths in it at all even though eighteen Americans are dead. Six of them died on Alex Klinner's plane.

On Thursday, CNN's Kaitlan Collins asked Vance at the White House whether he and the President would personally ensure the Klinner family gets every benefit it is owed and he didn’t even know her name:

"Obviously, our hearts break for every single person who has lost their lives in this operation. We want to be as helpful as we can and make sure she gets everything she is entitled to."

Her name is Libby Klinner. Her husband's name is Alex. The only word this administration won't say is war.

 

People are tired of the politics …

Tired of whether or not a child gets lunch being political.

Tired of whether or not a person gets medicine being political.

Tired of whether or not a family gets to stay housed being political.

Tired of whether or not clean water is worth protecting being political.

It all feels political because this Regime has turned basic human decency, basic human needs, into  something you have to vote for.

Make it stop.

Spread the word for the Midterms that the Regime has already slowed down the United States Postal Service to rig the election so here’s what you need to do:

Vote early and in person.

Mail your ballots at least two weeks before election day.

Use drop boxes to get your ballot in.

And if you live in a rural area where polling places have been closed, offer to drive your friends and neighbors to the polls.

We all must stand together.

 

And lastly … Labor Day is a perfect time to remember that Congress hasn't raised the federal minimum wage in 17 years.

That’s all, except …

Know The Facts and ...

Here's some more information, more facts, of what's happening in this country and what  we want, what we’re getting, and how do we make our needs heard …

Start small … Every Democrat who votes for Jeffries as Speaker deserves a primary in 2028!

Nearly 35 years since measles was eradicated in America Pennsylvania has confirmed two measles-associated deaths; of note is that neither person had received the measles vaccine. One of the deceased was a newborn who contracted the virus before birth; state health officials classified it as a measles-associated death due to positive postmortem test results.

Pennsylvania has reported more than 420 confirmed measles cases across 30 counties this year. Two doses of the MMR [measles, mumps, and rubella] vaccine offer about 97% protection against the virus so people don’t have to start dying from measles again.

Vote Blue to end this anti-vaxxer bull shit and keep people from dying.

A Minneapolis rally organized by Jake Lang—a former GOP candidate for Senate in Florida and January 6 thug who Cankles pardoned—descended into chaos on August 23 when a counter-protester dressed as Spider-Man appeared to punch Lang in the face.

Lang was holding a sign containing an anti-Black racial slur during the rally outside Minneapolis City Hall which was organized in response to the conviction of Shiloh Hendrix, a white woman who was found guilty of disorderly conduct after directing the same slur at an autistic eight-year-old Black boy at a playground in nearby Rochester.

Racists do stick together. So, Lang and his supporters were at City Hall for only a few minutes before the demonstration devolved into violence and they fled the area but video from the event clearly showed a man dressed as Spider-Man, later identified as William Nicholas Love, striking Lang in the face.

Love was among 11 people arrested and has been charged with assault, while Lang was also arrested and charged with inciting a riot.

Lang, who is filled with hatred for nearly everyone, had previously staged anti-immigrant and anti-Muslim protests in Minneapolis, and tried to burn a Pride flag during an anti-LGBTQ+ demonstration and has long been the subject of violent confrontations with counter-protesters.

So there’s that, but there’s this, too:

The Spider-Man footage has since gone viral online and a GoFundMe  for William Nicholas Love’s legal defense has raised almost $90,000 and counting …

Listen up MAGAts …

No matter what he says it’s still the Gulf of Mexico and always will be.

No matter what he says it’s still the John F Kennedy Memorial Center and always will be.

No matter what he says it’s still Lake Ontario and always will be.

No matter what he says it’s still the Department of Defense and always will be.

And lastly, no matter what he says he is still an adjudicated rapist and convicted felon who is in the Epstein Files.

 

In Texas Hood County Constable John Shirley took action last week when he disabled and covered up all three county-owned Flock Safety automated license plate readers. The defiant move came after a unanimous decision by the Hood County Commissioners Court to terminate its contract with the tech company amidst rising citizen pushback and contract performance issues.

In a public statement on social media, Constable Shirley shared photos of the covered devices, telling the surveillance company to ‘come get your garbage out of my county’ and asserting that the protection of everyday privacy must come before indiscriminate data collection.

While law enforcement agencies advocate for Flock Cameras as indispensable tools for locating stolen vehicles, missing persons, and suspects, civil liberties advocates argue they facilitate continuous, warrantless government surveillance.

Big Brother is watching … but not in Hood County thanks to Constable John Shirley.

Pay attention…

You cannot hack a mail-in ballot.

You cannot keep a mail-in ballot in line all day.

You cannot tell a mail-in ballot that the machines aren’t working.

That’s why Cankles’ and the Regime are so desperate to stop mail-in voting.

 

Democrat Alexander Vindman blindsided the GOP after losing his Senate primary to Democratic Socialist Angie Nixon by announcing that he's transferring $250,000 from his war chest to key Democratic races:

“Voters across the country, especially here in Florida, know that nothing is more important than flipping the U.S. Senate. The only way to cut costs for working families, root out corruption in D.C., and finally hold [the Regime] accountable is to deliver a Democratic majority this November. I am proud to invest in Florida and across the country to make sure Democrats win big on Election Day up and down the ballot.”

The money will flow into the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee to boost the campaigns of Senate nominees Charles Booker, Sherrod Brown, Roy Cooper, Abdul El-Sayed, Troy Jackson, Chris Pappas, Mary Peltola, Josh Turek as well as Dan Osborn, who has no formal party affiliation, in Nebraska.

On top of that, Vindman’s defeated campaign has donated an additional $400,000 to the Florida Democratic Party to help win elections across the state, including Angie Nixon's, whom he promised to support.

This is what true patriotism and resistance looks like.

Thank you Alexander Vindman!

 

Nearly 2 out of every 3 hired farm workers in this country were born in Mexico but if they’re taking “our” jobs where are all the American farm workers? Where are all the MAGAts who complained they were losing jobs to Mexican immigrants?

Gary Indiana has been without power for 2 weeks now.

Gary Indiana’s population of 68,000 is 775 Black.

Gary Indiana has eight data centers draining its power grid.

The president has not uttered one word about Gary Indiana.

Pay attention and vote accordingly.

 

There is something deeply funny about billionaires convincing a man making $52K a year that the greatest threat to his freedom is another worker who speaks Spanish and makes $14 an hour.

That immigrant didn’t outsource your job.

That immigrant didn’t buy your hospital.

That immigrant didn’t raise your rent.

That immigrant didn’t eliminate your pension.

You are being pickpocketed while somebody points dramatically at the guy standing next to you.

 

On March 19, 2026, Chinese customs rejected a 22-ton beef shipment from an ArreBeef plant in Argentina after finding it contained Chloramphenicol, a dangerous chemical banned in livestock production since 1995.

And that’s the beef Cankles’ wants Americans eat because he says it will save us money.

 

And if you don’t think your vote matters, think about this:

Your landlord will vote for the party who will help him raise rents.

Your boss will vote so more money goes into his pocket and not yours.

Anti-abortionists who want to take away a woman’s right to choose will vote.

Evangelical Christians who want to use their faith to govern you will vote.

Your racist uncle, brother, neighbor, co-worker will vote.

So CAST A GODDAMNED VOTE!!!

And on a personal note to the people of South Carolina …

If you’re ever feeling like you don’t believe in yourself or can’t achieve your dreams, remember that Darline Graham became a sitting member of Congress while knowing literally zero about anything, and admitting to that, and thinking that one-seventh of the entire population of the US lives in South Carolina.

We can do better than stupid so do the thing in November.
