Lamont Mealy, a mentally ill man, was locked in solitary confinement in a Maryland prison. Guards shut off water to his cell. A fellow prisoner says guards taunted him. He died of dehydration after 8 days. His family's lawsuit asserts officials covered it up.

Almost every major news story this week is about how the entire economy is now gambling, scams, bribes and theft.

When idiot Ron Schneider was born in 1963, the infant mortality rate was 29/1,000. It is now close to 5/1,000. So, no, children were NOT healthier when he was a kid. And he was, clearly, dropped on his head.

"nearly half..." ??? it's an open book test. www.nbcnews.com/politics/imm...

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

Could they just leave this guy alone? The Trump administration has informed a federal judge in Maryland that it plans to deport Kilmar Abrego Garcia to Liberia as soon as October 31.

🚨U.S. inflation rises to 3% in September as prices increase at the fastest rate since January. The White House says they will likely not release October’s inflation data next month, blaming the shutdown.

"Government" isn't shutdown. The Trump administration continues to destroy the White House, kidnap people, and take bribes. The only thing "shutdown" is the branch of government that could stop Trump (Congress), which is odd because Republican-controlled Congress is too craven to do that anyway.

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:

Here are the companies destroying the east wing of the White House

With all the things currently going wrong in this country, Democrats are *insanely* incompetent if they can't work this into ads. Mention a problem. Play this Leavitt clip. Mention another problem. Play this Leavitt clip again. Mention another problem. Play this Leavitt clip again, etc., etc.

Trina having to tell Jordan to back off is wild. It just lets you know how obvious she and Curtis have been #GH

Some have asked, and the answer is yes, Paige can fight #tar38

The second-longest government shutdown in U.S. history has federal operations stalled, impacting millions of Americans across the country, and Republicans are feeling the heat. So, what is the path out of this logjam? Here’s what you need to know and why it matters.

I keep thinking about the GOP insistence that we couldn’t remove monuments to treasonous confederates because of their historical importance.

They know the East Wing demolition is bad optics for them that’s why so many have suddenly “come to life” on this platform today armed w/inaccurate talking points about earlier renovations at the WH.

On Threads, the usual suspects are telling ppl about to lose SNAP benefits to just start a garden. As a gardener, I had to laugh. You need at LEAST an acre of land to feed a family of 4. Start-up costs are enormous. But yes, subsistence farming on the balcony of your rental apartment is the answer

well that just about said it all

Jane Elliott is such a great actress. Her speech before leaving the Q home was everything #GH

Not sure having your brand associated with destroying the White House is the best look

It is now more important to donate to our local food banks. They are going to take on the weight of what this administration has caused.

With SNAP benefits probably ending for millions of people it’s crucial to donate what you can to your local food banks. People will be relying on them for so much and they need our support.

Are they still doing the get rid of mayor Laura storyline or is that over with? What about Sidwell getting Sonny's piers? #GH

Jordan just doesn't know how to back off😮‍💨 I want to root for her, but I get Portia's annoyance with her #GH

Really liking new Michael. Those scenes with Dante were great #GH

MAGA: there wasn’t even a mishap with the artillery over I-5 you lying libtard Marines: halted exercise after firing 6 155 mm rounds because one prematurely detonated over the highway MAGA: DIDN’T HAPPEN NERDS Marines: we’ve opened an investigation and believe a fuze failed

7 million people joined together & marched in the USA No Kings Protest making it the largest in American history!

BREAKING: A court ordered the Department of Defense to stop censoring educational materials discussing race and gender in schools on military bases. Books removed from the schools must be returned to the shelves immediately.

The president of the United States posted a video of him defecating on the American people. Many in my profession normalized it. This is a big reason why we are where we are.

Quite the truth bomb.

“We found over 35 cases in which the judges have specifically said what the government is providing…false information. It might be intentionally false information, including false sworn declarations time and again," says Ryan Goodman, law professor at New York University.

Epstein isn't going away. Just ask Prince Andrew.

We love our Marines and owe a debt of gratitude to Camp Pendleton, but next time, the Vice President and the White House shouldn’t be so reckless with people’s lives for their vanity projects. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/19/u...

OK, so our "Secretary of War" currently has two big priorities: (1) murdering innocent fishermen in the Caribbean, and (2) endangering the lives of commuters in Southern California. Perhaps, we are seeing one of the downsides to having a drunk TV talk show chatterbox running our military.

Today’s robbery of the Louvre involves jewels of “inestimable value”, according to France’s interior minister. (apnews.com/article/fran...)

I’m absolutely exhausted in the best possible way. I love us. We did it! #NoKings

She was arrested for holding sign that said Dick tator, while wearing an inflatable penis.

🚨 NEWS: Colombian President Gustavo Petro accuses U.S. government officials of murder and violating Colombia’s sovereignty and says the Trump-ordered strike of a boat in the Caribbean killed a fisherman named Alejandro Carranza.

This is what democracy looks like. #NoKings

So proud of everyone! The NYPD confirmed that rallies across the city have ended with no arrests. It’s getting harder and harder for Trump to sell his propaganda.

Are we sure these and His and Hers private jets for Kristi and Corey?

Ohh that's RICH @ohhthatsrich.bsky.social

MSNBC captured the crowd from the Boston "No Kings" rally:

We have a right to dissent, and we will use it.

Our federal tax dollars are being used to fund a network of government social media accounts that pump out disinformation 24/7. Even during a government shutdown. It’s definitely not essential work.
