Incredible! Mass shootings are now so common in the US that this was the second shooting experienced by two survivors www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Some thoughts on anniversary grief, and some love for those who mourn. open.substack.com/pub/rebeccag...

I hope you’ll join me in sharing these stories and shedding light on a problem that is 💯 preventable. The story of Tierra Walker, 37 year old mom from Texas, whose life could have been saved had she had access to abortion. www.propublica.org/article/texa...

When there is nothing left, there will still be songs like this. Thank god for that, and thank god for Jerry Jeff Walker and Todd Snider. youtu.be/5QdWpab_kFg?...

Seems kinda huge: "Epstein survivors have confirmed with democrats in congress that they participated in a massive Biden-era investigation into Epstein's co-conspirators, but Trump and Pam Bondi closed it."

New Orleans-based Opera Créole and Opera Lafayette's joint poduction of Edmond Dédé’s (1827-1901) opera "Morgiane" is magnificent! 💜🎶🎼👑 #BHM #opera #Classical #BlackComposers

Did anyone ever think the USA would deport Purple Heart recipients. My God💔 My grandpa fought in WWII like many of yours. He was 100% Hispanic and a Purple Heart recipient. When I say he’s rolling over in his grave he’s doing so while 4 of his 7 kids are maga www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

If we said "Alexis Wilkins is suing right-wing commentators who've accused her of being a Mossad agent sent by Israel to stop Kash Patel from releasing the Epstein files," we'd sound nuts. We'd also be reporting straight news. ICYMI @willsommer.bsky.social: www.thebulwark.com/p/kash-patel...

Can't wait till Monday when I'm gonna go find a new workplace to ruin! LFG!

Thanks for watching. Xx

Masked ICE goons in Durango, CO, steal an elderly woman’s phone, grab her by the hair, and throw her down a hill. This was during a peaceful protest over ICE kidnapping a father and two children from a local school. #AbolishICE

Our military is being paid by an anonymous donor. Our WH East Wing was demolished for a ballroom - paid for by donors. These aren’t acts of benevolence or patriotism. This is the oligarchy assuming control, insidiously becoming part of how we function. Every American should reject it.

Team Canada is awesome: N.I.C.E. Agent welcomes US tourists in Canada 🇨🇦🤭💙

#ProudBlue #Pinks #ResistanceUnited Good morning, friends. You possess incredible strength as you confront each day, even in tough times. Your past victories over adversity are a reminder of your resilience. You can overcome this hurdle too. Just stand firm and move forward with determination.

Update: East Wing demolition Day 3. Trump confirmed today the entire East Wing will be torn down, according to NYT. He had previously stated it would not be touched.

They’re not redistricting — they’re preparing the battlefield. If Trump gets 5 extra seats in Congress, he’ll have the votes to declare emergency rule in any city that dares to dissent. #YesOnProp50

I must have written "Trump/Musk/Vought are taking a wrecking ball to America" a dozen times in the last 9 months. Now he's literally doing it. These pictures say everything about Donald Trump's godforsaken reign.

October 18th, 2025 - some thoughts about last week's NO KINGS...and what lies ahead. open.substack.com/pub/rebeccag...

An artificial heart for children with congenital heart defects was almost finished. Families had waited for years it. Then, Trump canceled billions in grants for universities — including the grant for this device. The cruelty is endless. www.npr.org/2025/10/09/n...

I supported NPR. I hope everyone else here does as well, if they can The hosts may not be loud, or brash, or fully on board with your brand of politics But their programming is honest and sincere In today’s day and age, that means a lot

That's about 1200 people just 'disappeared' by our government.

NEW: Judge Beryl Howell granted my motion for expedited review in my FOIA case for the Epstein files, and invited me to file a motion for summary judgment. Which we did, and which you can read here: www.muellershewrote.com/p/new-ive-fi...

'Despicable': ACLU demands court free journalist facing deportation to El Salvador www.rawstory.com/mario-guevar...

On Wednesday, the GOP-controlled House Appropriations Committee voted 34-28 along party lines to advance a funding bill that calls for excluding people living in the states without legal status from #2030Census results that the 14th Amendment says must include “whole number of persons in each state”

Laura Loomer is the one who criticized Charlie Kirk recently and said he "stabbed" Trump in the back. She is very influential and has the ear of Trump and Rubio. Could it be one of her followers took her too literally? Will MAGA and Republicans and corporate media ask her to apologize and reflect?

Here’s my write up on the most racist decision to come out of the Supreme Court in a while. The court approved of Trump’s racial profiling of Latinos with Brett Kavanaugh saying being harassed based on the color of your skin is “common sense.” My latest in @thenation

Wikipedia says the phrase "Your papers, please" is "a cultural metaphor for life in a police state." It's what the U.S. Supreme Court endorsed today: arbitrary stops of people without probable cause.

Contemplating creating THE SUMMER I TURNED PETTY, in which I identify a writing nemesis, passive-aggressively troll them on social media all summer long, then in the fall I apologize, we become friends and bond over Decorative Gourd Season, MFers, along with our mutual hatred of AI.

It would be great if the @nytimes.com would stop printing lies in the newspaper

Massie: Politically, it’s really bad for Republicans. They should just have this vote and put it behind them. 80% of Republicans support releasing these files. So, they are at odds with our base right now—particularly the Maga base.

NEW: Massie tells CNN that there is significant pressure from the White House to BLOCK the release of the Epstein files.

Flooding “blue” cities with soldiers on the pretext of fighting crime would be an unprecedented abuse of power that would violate states’ rights and threaten our most fundamental liberties. And it is illegal. bit.ly/4m6TG77

Been in a funk today but couldn't figure out why, then it dawned on me that I dropped off my first grader at school and returned home to news that someone else's children were murdered at school because a majority of federal lawmakers are morally bankrupt cowards

Welcome to the Trump regime! To all the fascist thugs in law enforcement having a field day sadistically beating down the people you are supposed to protect and serve, we see you. Your reign of terror won't last forever. Sooner or later you will be held accountable like the Nazis were at Nuremberg.

Every day we don’t talk about it, is a win for him. NEVER stop talking about: EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN

South Park strikes again 🤣🤣🤣 #SouthPark #ResistanceReborn youtu.be/vl8G2zLZfck?...

A little melancholy for your Monday.

The terrifying reality is this: we’ve reached the point where NOTHING coming out of this White House can be trusted. It’s no longer about informing the public, but about protecting Trump’s lies. One man’s fragile ego has become a global liability. /End 🧵 #ProudBlue #Voices4Victory

CNN put together a supercut of Pam Bondi being for releasing Epstein files before she suddenly turned against it

Looking for heroes, you say? Let us introduce you to the abortion rights activists who took on Alabama's attorney general—and won. So many lessons here for the post-Roe era. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Why Adelita Grijalva’s Campaign Should Matter to Everyone The special election in AZ-07 isn’t just local. It’s a national referendum on Trump’s cruelty and the power of people-centered politics. www.meidasplus.com/p/why-adelit...

I don't think most Americans realize how hard tariffs are about to hit them. The combination of 1) escalating tariffs, 2) companies slowly passing the cost to consumers, and 3) the repeal of the de minimis exemption in the Big Beautiful Bill, a lot stuff will be more expensive in 2027.

This is serious. Very serious.

REVEALED: we identified the operator of an overtly racist X account, "GlomarResponder," as ICE Assistant Chief Counsel James Rodden, based on an overwhelming number of biographical details matched through publicly available documents, other social media activity, and courtroom observation.

Threatening to shut down media outlets is what dictators do
