I like how grassley is reading along to see what integrity looks like

It's the first Monday in October which means the Supreme Court is back in session. Here's my preview of all the cruelty and evil they will visit upon us this term. My *cover story* in @thenation.com :) www.thenation.com/article/soci...

Have yet to see a white person arrested or beat by ICE! But sure, no racism exists.

We need to have a conversation about the fact that Donald Trump has legitimately lost his fucking mind.

They’re there to PROVOKE violence.

Not to mention the $100k+ salary, up to $60k in student loan forgiveness, $50k signing bonus and free healthcare. You gotta pay well for people to sell their souls.

Think the GOP's shutdown-driven health care crisis won't affect you? Think again. If Republicans don't reverse course, average enrollee premiums on California's Health Insurance Exchange are set to skyrocket come January.

Jasmine Crockett: “Stop believing the lies they are putting out there. The only person that is harming you right now is the old white nepo baby that is sitting in the White House that is causing all the destruction, pain, and problems you are enduring”

AOC "I think 'Abolish ICE' is a call to action on several levels. One is the literal interpretation of abolishing ICE, which I support...I don't believe that an agency that systematically & repeatedly violates human rights, I don't think that agency can be reformed. I think it has to be abolished."

A Texas megachurch pastor and GOP leader has been arrested for crimes against children. Not Robert Morris, a different one. Not Josiah Anthony, a different one. Not Luke Cunningham, a different one. Not Tony Evans, a different one. Not Scott Crenshaw, a different one. Not Steve Lawson, a different o

A Chicago citizen confronts the hypocrisy of a fellow Hispanic man working for ICE, shaming him and making a powerful point by asking how his family ended up in the United States.

Chump's Entire RepubliKKKan Regime Is Involved In A Coverup to Protect The Pedophile In Chief.....

Keep taking videos of what ICE is doing. @govpritzker.illinois.gov is right, document what’s happening. This is why they hate journalists so much.

Then these white South Africans can carry their asses to Yuma, AZ and start picking lettuce.

Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.

Violent thugs are terrorizing Americans and they were sent by the White House.

They largely want the studios & sports and don’t care about the news org. In fact, they would love it gone. Why? Because rich men, especially tech men, think they deserve no criticism and also need constant fluffing. They value a mirrortocracy over a meritocracy and welcome a mediocrity.

All the videos we see of ICE/police/military assaulting people on camera are happening because they know they will face no consequences for their actions. They're breaking the law because they believe the law no longer applies to them. What kept them in check before was fear. Now they have none.

i don’t know who needs to hear this but when the news is a shit tornado, you don’t have to stand in it. find your storm shelter — friends, family, pets, TV, music, books, whatever — and escape when you need to, please and thank you.

If a federal judge, appointed by Trump, can call him “simply untethered to facts,” our White House press corps can as well. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

When political commentators can’t even condemn children being zip-tied and traumatized, it tells you how far cruelty has been normalized on the right.

Cartoon from @anntelnaes.bsky.social 😞

I don’t buy for one second that Trump voters didn’t know Project 2025 would be his playbook. They just didn’t think it would touch them. Oops! CNN needs to own its role too, letting Trump lie unchecked and pushing that lazy “both sides” framing between him and Kamala Harris.

So Speaker Johnson gave the congress another week off. Paid of course, while they shut the govt down. The GOP has made it clear they have no interest in compromise with Dems. So they will have to figure how to reopen their govt that they closed. And they get another vacation

The fact that Carroll O'Connor was the total opposite from his Archie Bunker character, he was a Liberal and he believed in equality. What he did in playing Archie Bunker was expose America to its own racism.

When you see fascism on your block, you don't stay silent 📢

If Joe Biden’s “spiritual advisor” had pleaded guilty to sexually abusing a 12 year old girl, Fox would be playing that shit on a loop 24/7.

Would Trump be bailing out farmers with your tax dollars if they predominantly voted for Democrats?

Imagine saying this with zero irony.

Part of the problem is: The dementia is at least partly masked by what an absolute fucking moron he is. It's harder to see deterioration in someone who never functioned at a basic level.

America so needs to rid themselves of this shackle.

California and New York paying taxes to this federal government in 2025 is tantamount to England and France paying taxes to Germany in 1940. The money is going to be used *against* you.

KIMMEL: “That sonofabitch… I never imagined we’d have a president like this, and I hope we never have another president like this again… celebrating hundreds of Americans losing their jobs - he took pleasure in that. The opposite of what a leader is supposed to be.”

"You don’t need to be a mental-health professional to see that something’s very seriously off with Trump—particularly after nearly three years of watching his erratic and abnormal behavior in the White House." www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

ACCURATE AF.

Question: If a POTUS was actually a Russian asset with the specific intent of destroying the military power, market strength, social unity, economic hegemony & global influence of the United States from within, what would that person do DIFFERENTLY than what that asshole is doing right now?

A bus of Bronx middle schoolers pulled up to the Capitol this morning for a long-planned field trip just a few hours after the government shut down. All Capitol tours were cancelled as the guides can’t work in shutdown. So I escorted them in myself and gave them a personal tour. They were great!

Are the reasonable Republicans in the room with you right now, Hakeem?

I can’t believe I’m watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES I know we are “used to it” but it is absolutely insane

If things weren’t bad enough already, Republicans in control of Congress are shutting down the government. Why? Because Donald Trump opposes making health care more affordable for millions of Americans.

When are all the terrified people who know this is wrong but think they can just wait out the next three years going to wake up and take their heads out of the sand?

Jasmine Crockett for Attorney General in 2028.

They will never say or do anything that would shine a negative light on him.

Trump wants US troops to train for war IN AMERICAN CITIES Hegseth says that 'rules" are for pussies and REAL men blow up hospitals if they think an enemy might be inside. And also- why is the left so violent, and stop calling us fascists.
