A quote from Martha Crawford @whatashrinkthinks.com

AOC: I want everybody to understand that the cuts to your health care are what’s paying for this. You get screwed over to pay a bunch of thugs in the street that are shooting mothers in the face.

Donald Trump on Venezuela tonight

Now taking bets that he claims the throne of the Holy Roman Empire by midnight

Jerome Powell shall now be known as BIG BALLS POWELL

Jerome Powell just pulled the fire alarm

We have cowered and restrained our collective rage under the imagined imminent threat of “martial law.” Are we not ALREADY LIVING UNDER FEAR OF DEATH AND IMPRISONMENT? We have crossed the Rubicon

600+ people still showed up for Legal Observers training in Minneapolis tonight. In addition to those currently on patrol. This minute. While the vigil is happening in South Mpls.

“They’re walking their daughters” in DC… did he mean DOGS???!?

"WE ARE GOING TO RUN THE COUNTRY" - DJT

Step 1: Violently take Maduro and his wife Step 2: ???????? Step 3: Profits

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts. Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.

I wish Sinéad were here to rip up a picture of Trump on national television

The 3 Ghosts were unsuccessful last night.

I am not prepared for the rage I will feel, seeing that angry rotisserie chicken of a man dousing himself with Christmas excess and gorging himself at our expense in his Florida palace while we huddle around sparse tables in Dickensian dread

This inflation data is a big mess with clear downward bias from methodological assumptions by BLS (essentially assuming zero inflation in Oct)

Demento was awful and glitched hard a few times. His fastball is now a softball. Even maga is having enough of Demento. BTW the inflation #s are fudged. The 2.7% increase assumes 0% inflation in October due to shutdown. So just like tariffs, trade deals and investments in usa. It is all fake.

When we all get imprisoned for posting I’m definitely gonna be going around the yard asking what y’all said that got you locked up & it better be a banger because that’s how we’ll be establishing our hierarchy

Trump didn’t exactly refute the “personality of an alcoholic” allegations tonight

A Christmas message with all the manic energy of one of Hitler’s Nuremberg rallies but none of the nuance or humanity.

Was that speech supposed to he screamed in German?

Was that the most deranged 20 minutes in American political history?

What the absolute [expletive] was that?!?

Somebody get a pulse ox reading on this guy STAT

If there ever was a time for a head to explode on television, this would be it.

Trump sounds like a maniac at some sort of demented open mic

It's one long run on sentence. Did he get into his son's stash?

Is he even breathing between words?

Remember when Presidents did national speeches for emergencies or times where a nation needs to hear from their leader? This angry old man is literally screaming and clearly panicking

Commander in Sleep

He’s going to squeeze his way onto Mount Rushmore one way or the other

In recognizing symptoms of distress, a thought floated across my mind as to what the co-pay might be for a behavioral inpatient stay. And it occurred to me that that was the most American thought ever: “can I afford to address a crushing crisis? Brought on by my inability to afford crises?”

After ousting the BLS director and scrapping the October jobs and inflation reports, Trump is now canceling release of the advance Q3 GDP estimate. Trump doesn't mind turning the lights off on the economy because he’d rather Americans not know how badly it’s doing under him.

Dick Cheney lived long enough to witness the horrors he had unleashed.

JB Pritzker: “President Trump and his bootlickers have torn down the US Department of Education from the inside. Books are being banned. History is being erased. I’m sorry to be vulgar, but Donald Trump and his cronies can fuck all the way off” 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

I don't want AI. I want to stop filling out my entire medical history every time I go to the same doctor

Can anyone confirm that #SNAP benefits are not restored this morning, Sat Nov 1st? I’m looking for reports from people in any state.

friends I really hate to beg but I'm almost entirely out of all food, I rely on snap and I can't go to the food bank until next Wednesday and I can't go hungry that long. I really need food ASAP please. ca venmo PayPal stephaniebri22 #mutualaid #snap #shutdown #transcrowdfund #disabilitysky #food

“Someone” cancelled my family’s flight out of the country at the last second. We got our boarding passes. We checked our bags. Went through security. Then at our gate our reservation ‘disappeared.’

BREAKING: Stephen Miller—both Trump Administration capo and de facto head of DHS, ICE, and DOJ, has just declared that peaceful protesters are "street terrorists." Under an executive order signed by Trump just days ago, that means he is saying that all protesters in America can be arrested on sight.

US Border Patrol raid sweeps in citizens, families as Chicago crackdown intensifies, w/ @reneehickman.bsky.social @kristinacooke.bsky.social www.reuters.com/world/us/us-...

I spoke to a Venezuelan woman who was arrested in this raid and later released with her 4yo son. She said agents broke down their door, pointed guns at them and made sexualized remarks about Venezuelan women. When she returned to her apartment it was boarded up and all her possessions were gone.

The president is sending the military to control American cities and if you're a reporter who's framing that illegal power grab as "pushing the boundaries of constitutionality" or "acting boldly to fight crime" or whatever, please go find another line of work where you won't get us all killed.

It’s not just that the President of the United States posted a video of eleven people being murdered in international waters it’s that the President of the United States ordered the murder of eleven people in international waters so he could post a video of it.

If the uploaded YT video from Robin Westman is authenticated, the Russian note at the top of the church sketch in the notebook is simply a transliteration of “Annunciation from memory.” Not translation; It’s simply using Cyrillic letters to spell those words @msnbc.com @atrupar.com @meidastouch.com

The State of Illinois at this time has received no requests or outreach from the federal government asking if we need assistance, and we have made no requests for federal intervention.

on the one hand I should absolutely put my phone down but on the other hand what if the forces attacking democracy operate on weeping angels logic
