Cast your mind back a few presidents and remind yourself how INSANE this question is.

Terrific

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted. If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged. Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

I mean, look, I'm not a reporter, so who am I to talk? But on a day where the president both just called a woman reporter "Piggy" and is celebrating someone who had people bone saw apart one of my colleagues, I might just be a little ready to defend my colleagues and profession. But that's just me

We're primarying John Fetterman. Last week, Fetterman again sold out working Pennsylvanians. He was the deciding vote for a Republican budget bill that will strip healthcare from over 400,000 Pennsylvanians. We deserve real working class leadership in the Senate, not a Trump-enabling Democrat.

Ted Cruz spotted at the Puerto Vallarta airport after voting to allow himself to sue the DOJ for potentially millions of dollars of your tax money

ICE vs the clergy

At this point we have to assume that if the Epstein files are released they will - end the Trump Presidency - implicate many other prominent Republicans - destroy the careers of AG Bondi and his other defenders This is beginning to feel like the greatest scandal in American history.

We used to call this stupidity. There were smart people and stupid people and we let the smart people do the things they were good at and the stupid people were taken care of and didn't need to worry about what the smart people were doing. But now we let the stupid people think they're smart.

I received this email about Democrats caving to end the shutdown from one of the SNAP recipients I spoke to:

I got back to my office after the vote last night and recorded this. There's no way to sugarcoat what happened. And my fear is that Trump gets stronger, not weaker, because of this acquiescence. I'm angry - like you. But I choose to keep fighting.

The model of holding individual senators responsible is broken here. The retirees clearly agreed to take the fall. Which is why the nos should get no credit for voting no unless they move to oust Schumer

With a “WOW!,” President Trump posts a claim about DOGE and “royalties linked to Obamacare” that originated on a satirical website. That site’s own About section reads: “Everything on this website is fiction… If you believe that it is real, you should have your head examined.”

lol she got his ass and he knows it

I think we need to stop calling it empathy and go back to calling it decency. It isn't a favour you're doing someone else, it's you proving that you aren't a fucking ghoul

There had better be trials. And not just for the low-level thugs carrying out these orders, but for everyone up the chain of command. If we get past this, the solution isn’t to pretend it never happened and invite Stephen Miller to Harvard’s Institute of Politics. It’s trials w real punishments.

SNAP cuts are hurting more than 3.5 million Texans. So Team Talarico volunteers in San Antonio just packed over 16,800 lbs of food at the local food bank — equivalent to 13,480 meals! We will always show up for our neighbors.

I'm one of the four fired employees. I was a writer & producer at Bon Appétit for nearly five years, during which I helped organize our union and sat on our bargaining committee. I am, to my knowledge, the only trans woman in our union and the only trans woman on editorial who doesn't work at Them

Rep. Yassamin Ansari has set up a table and this sign outside Speaker Johnson’s office.

Cool. What would you call the other wing then? www.nytimes.com/2025/11/03/u...

From the top rope

Trump is starving the troops.

So given yesterday: He's going to step up attempts to "impress" people w/golden wall coverings. He's going to resort to even more extreme actions, out of desperation. He--& his--will lie even more than they normally do. He's going to try even more desperately to grift. Just...be aware.

Brad Johnson at The Texan did the cost-per-vote math on this: Rehmet: $1.16 Wambsganns: $43.39 Huffman: $167.61

At this point, anyone—a university, a law firm, a corporation, a Democrat—bending the knee to Trump is doing it because they want to, not because of any political reality.

Every single county in Virginia shifted Blue.

thank you for all the support; the statement from our union is now live here with some more reporting. now that this is public I can confirm that the majority of today’s layoffs were women of color. there are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue.

Since Greg Abbott made Houston remove the rainbow crosswalk. Rainbows are being painted on homes and businesses all over the city.

I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day. certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

People fucking hate this guy. They fucking hate ICE. They fucking hate how much power he has. He is at 63% overall disapproval to 37% approval. That's lower than their poll after January 6th. And this poll was done before he started intentionally starving people. I wish our media would reflect this.

One time. The GOP has won more than 50% of the popular vote <one time> since 1992. And yet, every day, you are bombarded with Takes™️ from Ezra Douthglesias about how deeply unpopular The Democrats and their policy platform are, without any reflection on how the same standard applies to the GOP.

The music cuts off awkwardly before the end, but this is an incredible NYC Halloween costume compilation.

"This fucking sucks" and "all is lost" are two different sentences. Don't say the second when you mean the first.

I know it’s too much to expect them to know their history, but if the American Revolution had a motto, it definitely would not have been “immigrants go home.” It would have been “get your fucking soldiers out of our cities.”

AOC: There was a day before his presidency, and there will be a day after — and it belongs to us.

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.

Did you know that over 1.3M active duty service members and veterans rely on SNAP benefits to feed themselves and their families? Now you know.

Folks, Jordan Wood is running for the U.S. Senate in Maine in 2026. He’s a Democrat. He’s 36 years old. He’s a progressive. His campaign emphasizes anti-corruption, standing up against corporations and wealth, and pro-democracy reform. Check him out… @jordanwood.bsky.social

i really resent the continued assertion that there’s so much anger on both sides, as if the causes of the anger are equally legitimate. we’re angry because masked maniacs are violently snatching our family and neighbors off the street, and they’re angry because we’re calling them out for it.

Trump’s tearing down the East Wing to build himself a $350M ballroom while Americans struggle to afford health care. Senator Ruben Gallego went to the site of the Trump teardown.

10th boat blown up in the Caribbean. 6 people dead this time. Not a single arrest made. Not an ounce recovered. Not a shred of evidence provided.

There are no circumstances where human beings should be without food. There are no qualifications that make someone undeserving of access to food. If you are a human being, you should get food. I don’t care about ability, job status, legal status, or anything else. If people are hungry, feed them.

“oh so you think the east wing being demolished is worse than-“ it’s a synecdoche, man. a visual metaphor. there’s a reason the aliens in Independence Day don’t aim a huge laser at SNAP benefits

If given the chance, I'd lose my legs all over again to serve in our great military. The leader of your party is a five-time draft dodger who has fired more Veterans than any other president in our history. Square that circle then tell me who really hates our military.

"How do you expect to win back men...?" We don't want those men. They are the hot dogs on the floor of humanity and we still have all these nice prepped hamburger patties if someone would just let them cook.

Putting a Democrat with a Nazi tattoo in the Senate normalizes Naziism in our federal politics for a long ass time. All these recent stories about secret Nazi group chats? Anytime that happens going forward will be met with "But Platner." It's not a purity test. Think through the consequences.

Wonder if people are emailing them at [email protected]. Who knows
