This is the thing. Republicans blocked a standalone Dem bill in the House to pay the troops because they thought it would weaken their ability to just get Dems to fold on the clean CR.

hey um @democrats.org you need to make noise about this asap

the gop is going to try their damndest to make it illegal to be a democrat. and this is why as effective as the health care attack is, it cannot be the only thing democrats talk about.

Who voted for weakened military and cronyism?

Reuters photographer Jonathan Ernst noticed that Bondi flipped open a file during the Senate hearing and he zoomed in. Inside were her crib notes for attacking the senators. The GOP now practicing Cliff's Notes Fascism In other words, under oath Bondi was purely a performance.

Agree. Agree. Agree.

CNN: “An older couple making $85K/year will see their yearly insurance premiums jump from $7K to $25,000 — 30% of their income.” 😳#TrumpShutdown #TrumpHealthCareTax This is what Dems are drawing attention to and want fixed. Now, not later.

I just saw someone use the abbreviation “AI;DR” and I’ll be laughing for a while.

One of the lessons I discuss in "On Tyranny": Listen for dangerous words.

Ah yes, white collar employers are desperate to hire 50 something people who have spent their work lives in manual labor.

“Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.” Diary of Anne Frank January 13, 1943

Who could ever have imagined when I played a fictional rebel who joined the Resistance to oppose a criminal Authoritarian & wannabe King, it would be happening in real-life? #TwentyfiveFortyseven

Vance is responding to a purported quote from Joy Reid THAT SHE DIDN’T SAY. Left is Vance quote-tweeting a BS MAGA account. Right is my transcription of the video. She’s talking about HER PARENTS’ EXPERIENCE OF RACISM NOT HERSELF. SHE’S QUOTING HER MOTHER. Vance didn’t listen / doesn’t care.

“I want my beefiest boys on this”

This whole administration is full of vindictive thugs

“Church” people…

Absolutely bizarre. Trump takes credit for a judge blocking HIS OWN PLAN to cut $34 million in funding for counterterrorism in New York.

Shitty move from the “I’m for me first” Caucus

I get that the idea of the Trump administration outlawing the Democratic party is frothingly psychotic even in light of what's happening right now, but also: is it though? What's happening now was unimaginable a month ago. Same with the month before that, and the month before that, and...

Take the good news seriously too

October 18, 2025. Bring flowers. Sing songs. Flood the streets. Nonviolent resistance is the best path forward.

Trump is cutting health insurance funding, slapped a tariff on pharmaceutical imports, and now wants to force you to buy from TrumpRX - a crisis he created to profit from. www.nytimes.com/2025/09/30/h...

The person who did all of these things was called a “tyrant…unfit to be the ruler of a free people” in 1776. Yup. Give it a read…

Which party controls the presidency, congress and the senate? Even add #SCOTUS. That’s who you hold accountable if there’s a shutdown. Just how much money do these billionaires need to be happy? #NoKings #October18

Hatch Act? What Hatch Act?

Tag yourself, I'm furrowed brow guy.

If Congress shuts down and stops working, how will we be able to tell?

coming back to this, what are we even doing with this funding bill negotiation or indeed any budget at all?

On the left we have a call for peaceful protests and on the right we have a call for the execution of a democratically elected Congressperson. This is not a “both sides have a point” situation. The recent faux outrage from the right is obviously performative.

Trump’s biggest problem is that he can’t simply turn the tables on his foes. He was credibly accused of criminal offenses, while his political opponents were not. Though he managed to escape a prison sentence, he is the first former U.S. president to be convicted of a felony trib.al/a7BOu8w

You don’t have to be an “evil genius” anymore. It turns out you can be an evil moron, as long as you’re completely ruthless.

Today’s shameful shadow docket decision from the Supreme Court—allowing Trump to unilaterally cancel $4 billion in aid—is not behavior that any healthy democracy tolerates of its judiciary. It is a sign of constitutional rot that precedes the rule of law’s collapse. slate.com/news-and-pol...

Who needs a Congress when you have a king? 😔 #taxationwithoutrepresentation

I’m guessing 1 and 3 Also, it’s critical media coverage does not normalize this in any way

Trump's tariffs will cost San Diego families $2,400 this year while hurting our cross-border advantage with Mexico. Smart trade policy protects American workers without destroying the partnerships that make our region thrive.

Gahhh. Infuriating! Pedestrians and bikers already have no choice but to walk “defensively.”

we'll know more soon but we know for a fact that trump, the gop, and fox news have described immigrants as "animals" "thugs" "rapists" and murderers and used the most dehumanizing language possible against them. and they've said this repeatedly to a receptive audience that can easily acquire guns.

So when does The Hague do something?
