Here’s the original clip of Ronald Reagan from April 25, 1987, where he delivered a complete and total rebuke against tariffs. Trump's calling Reagan’s words here “FAKE” and “fraudulent.” They’re 100% real. And the original clip is actually far worse for Trump, as much is left out of the ad:

When Tish James walks into a courthouse tomorrow — the target of a political prosecution demanded by a President obsessed with revenge — she does not walk in alone. New York has her back. Grateful to Governor Hochul for bringing us together tonight.

Not simply fascism. Monarchism.

Breaking: The Supreme Court is now officially considering taking up a case overturning same-sex marriage. This is the first time in history the court has considered rolling back this right.

A man was arrested for playing Darth Vader's theme music, "The Imperial March," behind National Guard troops walking through Logan Circle. Now the ACLU is suing on his behalf. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

The government doesn't get to decide if your protest is funny, and the government officials can’t punish you for making them the punchline. May the Force and the First Amendment be with you.

🚨 HS students (US citizens) were gassed and assaulted (reportedly, one student’s face was bloodied) before being taken away in custody by federal agents. There are no rules for ICE. Keep your kids safe.

A Virginia couple has gone to court to try to block Trump from proceeding with the demolition of the East Wing. Charles and Judith Voorhees has filed a motion in Washington federal court, asking a judge to halt any further damage to the White House while the legality of the project is assessed.

wow, which common vaccine was it?

NEW: Colorado AG and gubernatorial candidate Phil Weiser (D) tells 9NEWS he supports Colorado redrawing House maps to create new Dem seats to offset Republican redistricting in red states. Weiser is the most prominent Colo. Democrat to sign on to the effort. #copolitics

Weiser backs a 2026 state constitutional amendment to allow redrawn House districts in 2028. "I want to keep this as a one-time exception, allowing mid-cycle redistricting to match when it's being done, and really do all we can to get back to normalcy." www.9news.com/article/news...

Today, the White House Press Secretary told the country that this ridiculous damn ballroom is “the president’s main priority”…not reopening the government, not lowering the cost of groceries, not lowering the cost of housing, not lowering the cost of healthcare….building a ballroom

🚨BREAKING: A federal judge in Texas dismissed a GOP lawsuit against California’s new congressional redistricting plan ruling that the plaintiff, Rep. Ronny Jackson (R-Texas), had no right to sue over another state’s election laws. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Tedeschi Trucks covers Ray Charles “Let’s Go Get Stoned” live recent release. Leon Russel on keys along with Susan’s strong performance. Trying this streaming service to take a break from Spotify. Sound quality is noticeably better imo. This whole album pops. Feelin Alright is always great.

Glad ICE is getting called out for plate swapping in Illinois, but this has been happening in California from the jump.

BREAKING: Jack Smith is requesting that Congress and the Justice Dept. let him testify in public. In new letters to the House and Senate Judiciary Committees, Smith says he wants to testify "in open hearings" because of "the many mischaracterizations" around his investigations.

Q: Some smugglers have survived these strikes and been sent back to their home countries. If they're terrorists, why not arrest and detain them? TRUMP: *immediately punts question to Hegseth*

Those who question the veracity of Virginia Giuffre's claims fail to answer this basic question: 'Why are two adults traveling the world with someone else's child?'

Q: On the pardon of Changpeng Zhao, Binance has significant business interests with World Liberty Financial, the president family's crypto company. How do you respond to criticisms that this is a corrupt act? LEAVITT: I would respond and say the president is exercising his constitutional authority

Leavitt: "At this moment in time, of course, the ballroom is really the president's main priority."

WOW: The White House says the president's MAIN PRIORITY is his BALLROOM. SNAP is ending. Subsidies for health care are gong to double and in some instances quadruple plan premiums. The government is shut down. The cost of living is through the roof. And his priority is his ballroom.

"Destruction of federal property is a federal crime-18 U.S. Code § 1361 defines it as willfully injuring or committing any depredation of U.S. gov't property-Damage exceeding $1k is a felony w/ a fine-up to 10 yrs in prison or both" Meanwhile-took me forever to get permits to repaint my mailbox.

Amy Wallace says the FBI and DOJ have the list. Twenty abusers. Zero accountability. How long will we tolerate this cover-up? hartmannreport.com/p/trumps-eli...

"The fact that the nomination got this far illustrates how much antisemitic and hateful rhetoric has been normalized, explained away or rewarded by Republicans in power," @katierogersnyt.bsky.social writes of the Ingrassia case. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/21/u...

Jeffries: We have an American president behaving like an organized crime boss, stealing taxpayer dollars in real-time in front of everyone in plain sight. And Republicans have nothing to say about the emerging crime scene at 1600 Pennsylvania avenue.

a live look at the demolition of the White House's East Wing for Trump's ballroom

Here’s what’s at stake in the shutdown: If Republicans get their way, 50,000 Americans will die unnecessarily every year. 15 million will lose their health care. 20 million will see their premiums double. All so they can give a trillion dollar tax break to the 1%.

Mike Johnson doesn't know sh*t

The funniest part is the notion that ranchers and farmers get to set their own prices. They probably got a decent laugh out of that one. 🤡

It's official: North Carolina's Republican-controlled Legislature just passed a new congressional map designed to give the GOP an extra House seat. This is the third state to follow Trump's gerrymandering demand, following Texas and Missouri.

Chris Murphy: "There's a lot of history that has taken place in the East Wing & it was just destroyed without any conversation in the public, without any consent of Congress. It's absolutely illegal. That visual is powerful b/c you're watching destruction of the rule of law as those walls come down"

He did everything he possibly could to overturn the election & stay in power - threatening his VP, Govs & Secs of States, organizing a mob to storm the Capitol. He knew if he ordered a military coup they would’ve refused & he would’ve been tried for treason. That’s why he left.

Trump: "It's awfully strange to make a decision where I'm paying myself. But I was damaged very greatly and any money I would get I would give to charity."

COLLINS: The NYT is reporting your legal team is seeking $230 million from your own DOJ now in response to the investigations into you. Is that something you want? TRUMP: It could be, yeah. I don't even talk to them about it. All I know is they would owe me a lot of money. They rigged the election.

North Carolina moved closer Tuesday to dismantling a historically Black congressional district in a move one of its former representatives described as “blatant discrimination.” www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Ah right of course

I want more people to care that SNAP benefits are being cut off on November 1. 40% of SNAP beneficiaries are children. This is callous and vile.

This is Herman. He learned how to eat corn on the cob today. And within 11 seconds, he became an expert. 13/10 (TT: devonjohnson07)

To recap: •$100M on golf •$172M for jets for ICE Barbie •$230M in DOJ payments to Trump •$250M for a vanity ballroom •$40B to Argentina while our farmers suffer •$117B in annual tax cuts to the super wealthy 1% •$170B ICE budget to round up Americans like Gestapo Meanwhile—no money for food stamps

NEW: Christopher Moynihan, a pardoned Jan. 6 rioter, was arrested Sunday after saying in text messages that he planned to “eliminate” House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries. According to a court filing, Moynihan wrote, “Even if I am hated, he must be eliminated, I will kill him for the future,”

The White House is asking people not to share pictures of the East Wing because it’s even worse today.

So we’re now paying federal taxes so Donald Trump can withdraw them from the Treasury like it’s his own personal bank account? Really?

NEW: AZ AG Kris Mayes and Adelita Grijalva have filed suit asking the court to declare Grijalva a member of the House once she's sworn in, and if Johnson won't do it, to allow someone else to. www.abc15.com/news/state/a...
