As long as this administration is allowed to run unchecked—mostly, but not only, by Republican politicians and voters—we will continue to have a secret police force in America. Is this what The Greatest Generation and others who battled fascism gave their lives to protect?

Why are we trusting Elon Musk, Mark Zuckerberg, Peter Theil and other billionaire with our collective future? Have we learned nothing from the first year of Trump 2.0?

Good answer anywhere in America.

In a world where fewer and fewer people concern themselves with the plight of others, the loss of Rob Reiner, who cared deeply about humanitarian causes, feels that much more devastating. RIP: 1947-1925. [Selfie: July 2022, NYC]

Habba had one qualification: fealty to Donald Trump. Good riddance. Sadly, I don't think we should expect someone any better qualified.

Not only is ICE snatching hard working people who are trying to earn a living, they’re taking their money too? A witness recorded ICE agents taking a cash box from a taco stand in La Puente during an operation where four people were arrested.

The NYT: "A Fraudster Pardoned by Trump Gets 37 Years for Running Ponzi Scheme" We're now in double digits in the number of people Trump has pardoned who are heading back to prison for committing new crimes. Who could have predicted that?

What is the over/under for the number of days until Ms. Bondi is disbarred?

Name them.

Shaheen is completely out of touch with politics in the Era of Trump. Just as Democrats finally seemed to be getting off the matt, she and the other seven Senators who voted to end the shutdown without getting anything in return cut the legs right from under her party. Congratulations, Senator.

This is how Trump celebrating Democrats caving on the budget deal: x.com/kyledcheney/...

Thye are disgraceful

Can't we all finally agreed that Republicans will never offer a healthcare plan that helps anyone but their donors? Come on, this is just common sense, isn't it?

While the Trump DOJ fights to stop paying SNAP benefit and end health insurance for millions, the super rich are getting even more tax breaks that we knew. Are all those who voted for Trump and Republican winning yet? www.nytimes.com/2025/11/08/b...

What he said: 💯 🎯

anyone surprised?

An estimated 15.7 million workers use SNAP. It’s a lifeline for those in low-wage jobs. Meanwhile, CEOs are paid 280x as much as the typical worker. Don’t be angry at workers for using food stamps. Be angry at the corporations paying them so little that they need them.

We all know Johnson takes his marching orders from Trump. Does Trump have ANY incentive to cut a deal with Democrats to re-open the government? Hell, since opening the government will inevitably lead to a vote on releasing the Epstein Files, Trump must be pulling for Senate Dems to hold fast.

Can't wait for my wife and I to get our $200 checks, too.

Republicans have decided not to feed Americans in need of food assistance. Do not let them tell us otherwise. They refuse to use emergency funds to feed children, women, and men. This is today's MAGA Republican. Talk about this with your family and friends, because the corporate media will not #SNAP

Spot on.

people chant "we stand with you!" as Letitia James tries to speak outside a courthouse in Virginia

Pritzker on Fox: "He's challenging the integrity of the next election by sending troops into our cities. It isn't about fighting crime. He said he's going after the worst of the worst. That's not what they're doing. They are literally after black and brown people because of the color of their skin."

So they didn’t like the ad. Let’s just post Reagan’s 5 min speech against tariffs as it appears on YouTube. Over and over. On all platforms (some of y’all are still on X). *1981 Sherrilyn horrified by 2025 Sherrilyn saying “let’s post Reagan’s speech.” youtu.be/5t5QK03KXPc

If Mr. Art of the Deal really wanted to end the shutdown and cared about federal workers, programs and services, he would be negotiating instead of building a ballroom. And if he’s too busy with the ballroom, he could allow Thune to do it since Mike Johnson is a useless fool.

Ronny Jackson is a joke.

A Sure Bet: Flunky Mike Johnson will allow the Epstein Files to be released before the Republicans ever let Jack Smith testify. #JackSmith #Resist #EpsteinFiles #Trump

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.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 79th day out of the last 91. The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown. It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

American institutions don't crumble. But they can be destroyed.

Two days ago, he took a shit on the American people. Today, he began demolishing the People’s House. That’s all he does. He shits on people, and he destroys things. Bcuz he’s a horrible person. I blame him a lot for the death & destruction he’s caused. I blame his enablers & his appeasers even more.

The Treasury Department instructed employees not to share to share photos of the demolition of parts of the White House’s East Wing

This is revolting.

@secnoem.govpeeps.us this was last night in Portland. No fires in sight or wars in progress unless you count the one you & your fascist regime have BROUGHT to PDX, allowing ICE to target & brutalize peaceful, lawful citizens, shooting pepper bullets at priests who are standing up for your “enemies.”

Honestly, is anyone really surprised? The entire cabinet is one big gang of grifters and thieves.

Gov. Pritzker: Nice job.

Kash was begging for a Community Note

I forget-- who controls the White House, Senate, and House?

Sooner or later—most likely sooner—one of these masked agents is going to pull the trigger and it won't be a rubber bullets. These "agents" are already breaking the law on a daily basis. When do any of the state attorneys general step in and issue arrest warrants for these criminals?

"unconstitutional DEI principles" "unconstitutional DEI principles" "unconstitutional DEI principles" "unconstitutional DEI principles" "unconstitutional DEI principles" "unconstitutional DEI principles" UNCONSTITUTIONAL DEI PRINCIPLES????

This how things work in an authoritarian regime. The courts can no longer be trusted.

He knows it. They know it. They've always known it. Amongst themselves, they joke about it. They tell stories about it. They swap advice on how to deal with it. But most importantly, to everyone else, they lie about it.

Are we in another tech bubble? No question. It's not if, but when it will burst. Anyone out there confident this regime will be able to handle it, especially after Powell’s term ends and Trump installs a flunky? The big boys who really run the country will be just fine, The rest of us, not so much.

Yup, I think this has been obvious from the start. Don;t understand why farmer don't get this. It's not like Trump didn't screw them in his first term.

And after 40 minutes of cringe-Thunderous applause from the generals! Just kidding. Total silence. 👀 🦗 🦗
