Anyone smear their feces on the Capitol walls today? Beat up any cops with flag poles? Use mace or bear spray on them? At least tell me someone constructed makeshift gallows and threatened to hang the vice president? No? I hate to be the bearer of bad news. Y’all suck at political discourse.

So no terrorism then?

Wisdom from Schoolhouse Rock.

Jeffries: "What's hateful is what happened on January 6. That was a Hate America Rally sponsored by Donald Trump and his sycophants who incited a violent mob to storm the Capitol. That is what hate looks like. What you will see this weekend is what patriotism looks like."

Surprise! The Republican Trump is persecuting, er prosecuting, might actually be guilty.

Pritzker: Illinois is not a place you can conquer and our people are not your subjects

So that court order for ICE to reduce its violence really slapped them down, eh?

I’m pretty sure this will make FOTUS very upset

Demagogic president seizes money to pay standing army, arrogating to himself legislative power, while his cronies keep Congress out of session is honestly more or less exactly how the Founders thought this would end

Trump can simply give $40 billion in US tax money to his pals in Argentina, openly admit it is for the intended purpose of keeping the MAGA allied right wing government in power, and pocket billions for himself. The US has no laws anymore and that's your money they are stealing.

The dominant business plan these days seems to be let’s turn everyone into slaves, who famously never revolt

Emerging from the darkness of this era will require us to acknowledge that the previous status quo, including many institutions that may have served us well in another era, have been failing for my entire lifetime.

POLITICO: “.. They referred to Black people as monkeys and ‘the watermelon people’ and mused about putting their political opponents in gas chambers. They talked about raping their enemies .. and lauded Republicans who they believed support slavery. @politico.com www.politico.com/news/2025/10...

My focus group disapproved of Donald Trump's language and behavior, but all agreed you vote for the policy, not the person. Here are the things they said a Democrat would have to do—from the way they dress to the way they talk—in order to inspire them to vote for them.

There were at least two ceasefires under Biden! In which more than five times as many living Israeli hostages were released in exchange for 240 Palestinians! Has everyone forgotten this?

I have never been a supporter of Donald Trump, but if Democrats cannot stop him from taking away my healthcare subsidies, I will have no choice but to continue voting for him and/or his anointed offspring in all future elections.

#RepublicanPartyOfPedophilia That’s them….

The chairman of the Nobel Peace Prize confirms that Donald Trump does not meet the moral and ethical standards associated with the award, citing a lack of courage and integrity a trait that defines MAGA.

Shows need to wrap plot better if we are only going to get 8 episodes every 3-4 years.

Donald Trump is not a king — and his administration is not above the law. Today, the court confirmed what we all know: there is no credible evidence of a rebellion in the state of Illinois. And no place for the National Guard in the streets of American cities like Chicago.

My choice for the Nobel Peace Prize this year: Chef José Andrés and the World Central Kitchen.

You've probably heard how a high percentage of #Nobel laureates are immigrants. The US in particular has benefited from the influx of bright minds. @jennaahart.bsky.social ran the data for this century's Nobel prizewinners — and shows more than 30% immigrated. 🧪 www.nature.com/articles/d41...

We’re watching an entire political party actively protect the single most infamous sex-trafficking operation of our time. This isn’t just silence—it’s complicity at the highest level.

Even though New York, Washington, Colorado, and Maryland can’t redistrict in time for 2026 — they need to be laying the groundwork to draw new maps for ‘28. SCOTUS could give the GOP up to 19 new seats by striking down the VRA. We can’t be caught off guard. We need to be ready to cancel them out.

Country fans are upset with Zach Bryan after he criticized ICE in a song. But don't let it be known that Willie Nelson, Waylon Jennings, Kris Kristofferson, and Johnny Cash all despised fascism and leaned heavily to the left.

If a candidate tells you what would happen if the other nominee is elected - and it happens just like she said - by definition you cannot say she ran a bad campaign. She ran on the truth. And folks should ask themselves why the truth was not enough for them. - From the years 2016 and 2024

Should IL National Guard deploy to Texas to protect girls from Ghislane's outside days?

What do Los Angeles, DC, Chicago, and Portland have in common? They’re all cities where violent crime has plummeted over the last two years.

As basic question from an ex-police reporter: Can some of our journalists detail the training regimen all these new federal agents receive? The lethal incompetence involving use of force and perameters of the 4A suggests they are just handed guns, masks and badges and told to go fuck people up.

This footnote to Illinois and Chicago's lawsuit against Trump is an important reminder: * There is no Department of War or Secretary of War, which are make-believe names for the actual agencies created by Congress. Doc storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

TREASONOUS! ALL OF THEM!

If we make people work to 90, it adds eleventy quarthillion dollars. If we make them work to 100, it's twoteen brazilian!

It’s boiling in October because you’re using ChatGPT to write your emails, Janice.

Repubs a decade ago: Obama wore a tan suit!!! Dems are unfit to lead!! Repubs now: It's perfectly legal to use the military to kill Dems!!

I kind of can’t believe this Bari Weiss quote is even real, and yet www.nytimes.com/2025/10/06/b...

71.5% of ICE detainees have no criminal convictions, according to government data. Don’t fall for Trump’s lies about targeting the “worst of the worst.” As Trump's regime terrorizes communities to fill up detention centers, remember that some of his biggest donors are private prison corporations.

History will not remember him as a king, or a savior. History will remember him as a small, ugly, sick man who happened to seize great power, who wielded it recklessly, & who left behind a trail of destruction, corruption & cowardice unmatched in American history. - Rick Wilson, The Lincoln Project
