The national debt is the highest it’s ever been, after adding $1 trillion in a little under two months. Our elected officials have abdicated their fiscal responsibilities.

🚨WTF: WHY IS NOBODY REPORTING ON THIS? Children were reportedly ZIP-TIED during a multi-agency law enforcement raid in Wilder, Idaho, as 100s of people were detained and police FIRED RUBBER BULLETS. www.newsweek.com/children-zip...

🚨NOW: HUNDREDS of NYers flood Foley Square to demand freedom for immigrants detained & an end to ICE raids. 🚫 NO to ICE! 🚫 NO to criminalization! #ICEOutofNY

Go Gavin.

Even in the movies, scenes of the White House getting blown up by invading aliens or terrorists feel emotionally unsettling. It’s the People’s House after all. So imagine having to witness its destruction in real life…and the culprit is the President.

It's ugly but likely. @walshfreedom.bsky.social

Next week, he will be selling debris from the East Wing on Truth Social.

This is the clearest way to explain it.

Republicans are already scheming to lock in power they can’t win honestly. Prop 50 is how we stop them. It puts redistricting back in our hands, not theirs. A YES vote means fair maps, real representation, and a Congress that answers to voters — not party bosses. VOTE #YesOnProp50

Burn of the Day

Over the past five months we've met with more than a dozen pregnant people in ICE detention, some of whom have been detained and shackled without access to medical care. We're calling for an immediate investigation.

It keeps getting better and better…

🧵 This scene from Bridgeview was just captured on TikTok from multiple angles— An Uber driver picked up a passenger & was immediately surrounded by ICE SRT agents. She says they almost rammed her off the road. One of them approaches with a shield. They point weapons at her and grab her passenger.

Sound familiar?

NEW: Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services just got an email telling furloughed workers to return to work Monday. They will be paid starting Monday, but won’t get backpay for precious furlough days until the shutdown ends.

Voters should pick their representatives, not the other way around. Glad to get the chance to talk to some of the volunteers and organizers doing the hard work to make sure Prop 50 passes. This vote will have critical implications, not just for California, but for our entire country.

I'm old enough to remember when Republicans claimed to believe that the White House was such sacred space that getting a blow job in the Oval Office was grounds to remove a president from office.

Terrifying. An Associated Press investigation found more than 420 bills attacking longstanding public health protections such as vaccines, milk safety and fluoride have been introduced in statehouses across the US so far this year. Around 30 bills in 12 states have already been enacted or adopted.

Post-WWII about 5000 Nazis fled to Argentina to avoid prosecution raising concerns about a repeat under the current administration particularly due to Argentina's absence of U.S. extradition treaties.

What an energizing time yesterday in Virginia - surrounded by people hard at work talking to neighbors and coming together to make sure real change comes through the upcoming election.

We don’t have money to fund public schools, but we do have money to fund private religious or organizations taking field trip trips to Turning Point USA…

the American century of humiliation is in full swing

Oralè Resisters How was your Food bill this week? The sad part is They just don’t care! #NoTacos4Trump #USDemocracy

Don’t let Republicans rig another election‼️ Prop 50 is about fairness and power; giving California voters the final say on congressional maps, not politicians. Your vote isn’t just a choice this time, it’s a defense. Stand up and use it. #YesOnProp50

Good morning. Black shouldered kite hunting, a week or two ago. Much cooler here this morning.

This is Poet. He would have really crushed it as a barista in the early to mid-2010s. Born in the wrong decade smh. 12/10

Jeffries: We have an American president behaving like an organized crime boss, stealing taxpayer dollars in real-time in front of everyone in plain sight. And Republicans have nothing to say about the emerging crime scene at 1600 Pennsylvania avenue.

Once a grifter, always a grifter.

Can’t find anything to object to here.

It's absolutely wild that the folks who screamed "my heritage!!!" when traitor Confederate statues were being taken down are *silent* while the White House is literally being demolished.

Who is this person? 🤷‍♂️

An Idaho mother was brutally beaten and zip-tied by ICE in front of her three U.S. citizen children.
