Huh: TikTok took down my 8-second video featuring this image of Debbie Brockman — the news producer just detained by Trump’s CBP agents — saying it violates the “joy of TikTok”

Yes. Molly is right. This is the way. The only way.

In Chicago, four vehicles descended and eight ICE agents moved in to kidnap a child. She screams, “I’m 15,” as ICE yanks her from the car and kneels on her neck. This is not about immigration enforcement. It's about terrorizing Americans.

It’s the Feds making Portland look like a war zone— not the protesters. And honestly, these protesters are brilliant. They’re flipping the whole authoritarian cosplay on its ass!

“No, Speaker Johnson — the No Kings rally on October 18 is not a hate America rally. In fact, it’s quite the contrary: It’s a love America rally.” #NoKings

Spoke in Carroll, Iowa today. I met up with Catelyn Drey who recently flipped a red senate seat blue. Rural Democrats are here...we’ve always been here.

And people tell me the libs have no knack for messaging.

I just signed a series of bipartisan bills in Altadena to support wildfire survivors. We're providing tax relief, a survivor-first streamlining of home insurance, higher penalties for looting and responder impersonators in evacuation zones, and help with rebuilding livelihoods.

It’s remarkable to realize Diane Keaton created a signature look and sensibility back in the 1970s and for about half a century continued to be a creative inspiration for how to be yourself in a world that tries so hard to put you in a box. Well done, Diane Keaton. RIP.

Swear-in Rep. Adelita Grijalva! Release the Epstein files!

It has been upsetting watching the establishment hurl itself at Mamdani but I think the other way to read that is that there really is a *better* politics possible and he shows that it is REAL. We could have this. They wouldn't fight it so hard if it wasn't achievable.

Nice recap

Good people need to start outing their ICE family members, neighbors, and community members. They need to be made into pariahs in the places decent Americans gather.

So if Russ Vought and Bob Kennedy were deliberately trying on behalf of an enemy to sicken and kill Americans by destroying the public health structure - what would they be doing differently?

This admin may have the stupidest people ever to work in Government. And we lived through GWB!

Never forget this: The forces rigging our economy, undermining our democracy, polluting our planet, and stoking hatred are counting on you to give up. Cynicism is how they win. Stay clear-eyed and ready for the fight ahead.

It's wild that we've reached a point where the President openly admits to firing people for political reasons, and his OMB director tweets about it like it's a victory. This is page one of the authoritarian playbook, happening in plain sight.

Hey, you idiotic propagandists at the New York Post: God Bless America isn't the national anthem. It's a SHOW TUNE written by Irving Berlin.

Make your plans for #NoKings. October 18th. Free speech is action. Please join in. You'll see me at one of the events. www.nokings.org

Hey Chumpster, The Governor has Another message for you LOSER !

Imagine that

Texas is preparing emergency resources for wildfires and floods. The Texas National Guard should be THERE — not in Illinois. We stand ready to support their return home so they are best positioned for helping Texans respond to any natural disasters.

MAGA being played for fools by fools

Is it just me, or does it seem the press is actually and completely terrified to report about Donald Trump's physical and mental health the way it would have if anyone else were president?

Anti-vax onstage, Pfizer backstage.

I like how they gave the Nobel Prize to someone fighting for democracy in Venezuela, instead of someone sinking fishing boats off their coast.

"It is truly sickening to speak to somebody who raised three boys to go into the Marines because of how much he loved and believed in this country, only to be treated like that." @jacobsoboroff.bsky.social discusses Narciso Barranco, ICE, and more with @timmiller.bsky.social on today's Bulwark Pod

A note and a caution about “planting season.” @visionandjustice

Meiselas: Trump says he’s focusing right now on laying off the Democratic agencies and government employees, whatever that means. Again, completely pathetic behavior, and in normal times, this would be impeachable and/or 25th Amendment territory.

"A WGN creative services department employee was detained by two Border Patrol officers and later released after federal agents swarmed a busy intersection on Chicago’s North Side Friday morning, at the height of rush hour." @wgntv.com wgntv.com/news/operati...

Donald Trump just got a COVID booster at Walter Reed, per the White House physician. Let’s be clear this is the same guy who downplayed the virus, mocked masks, and turned lifesaving vaccines into a political wedge that cost hundreds of thousands of lives.

Steve Liesman joins @stephruhle.bsky.social as Trump's White House buys stakes in more companies: "It creates winners and losers by the government."

This should be every American right now.

Ezra Levin’s message here is perfect. Despite all their best efforts at scaring us, it’s clear the goon squad regime are the ones who are scared. Let’s make it the biggest demonstration in American history. Tell them no f*cking kings. 🗓️October 18 📍Everywhere

Mamdani: This is a shameless act of political retribution. And instead of prosecuting Tish James for doing her job, Donald Trump should be doing his.…

This guy left his job as a TV host to be a full-time TV guest and part-time social media shitposter.

He cannot admit he played himself and American consumers. As Trump likes to say “you don’t have the cards.” China has moved on.

i’ll never get over this

It’s unnerving but I’m starting to like it

You know what fascism looks like? Attorney General Letitia James getting criminally indicted on literal trumped-up charges by the criminal who she fought to hold accountable for the actual crimes he committed and is now using the full power of the US govt to seek vengeance.

Vicious authoritarianism built on a pretext of shameless lies under the cover of scolding Christianity.

Marge Greene yesterday, Loomer today.

Powerful words of truth and solidarity from Council Speaker Adrienne Adams today. We have your back, Tish James.
