My daughter and I visited the house we lived in when she was a baby, and she was shocked a 29-year-old Navy guy could afford a nice house in a safe neighborhood. That wasn’t crazy in 1996 — but today, a nice house is out of reach for so many young people. That has to change.

Grateful for the Americans standing up for our shared values.

Comey: "I'm grateful the court ended the case against me, which was a prosecution based on malevolence & incompetence... I was inspired by the career people who refused to be part of this travesty. It cost some of them their jobs, but it preserved their integrity, which is beyond price"

Understand that the Halligan thing is 100% Pam Bondi's fuck-up. She could have appointed Halligan Special Attorney and this thing would still be alive. So it's not just that HALLIGAN is an incompetent bigot. It's that Bondi is too.

“Trump taking out his adversaries is nothing new. Relatives of Trump Casino executives who died in a rental helicopter crash in New Jersey, will tell you that, as some of them once did to me personally.”

Zuckerberg is a predator.

Brooke Rollins responds to a Fox & Friends graphic showing farm earnings down 6 percent this year by ranting about Joe Biden

We saw it with big tobacco, we saw it with the fossil fuels industry. When their own internal research showed the harm from their product, the defunded the research and attacked independent researchers coming to the very same conclusions. #ScienceUnderSiege

🚨Teenager goes to lunch in the middle of his school day, gets stopped by ICE, tells ICE he is an American citizen and ICE responds with, “I don’t care.” He was arrested and taken to Portland’s detention center. He was later released. 1/2

Arizona is a measles hotspot right now, and it’s totally preventable. Grateful to Chief Duran and the Phoenix Fire Dept. for stepping up with free vaccine clinics this month and next to keep families safe.

Trump wants to have his political rivals executed. "THERE CAN BE NO OTHER INTERPRETATION OF WHAT HE SAID"

Mark Kelly: "The message he sent a couple days ago was he declared that loyalty to the Constitution is now punishable by death. Those are serious words coming from the president. He's trying to intimidate us. But I'm not going to be intimidated."

Americans are facing an affordability crisis. Don't believe me? Just look at the prices Philadelphians are facing this Thanksgiving: controller.phila.gov/cost-of-than...

Racial profiling is all they do. Lawless.

This time let's not reintegrate the Confederates. It didn't work so well the last time.

Together, let’s flip Tennessee’s 7th Congressional District. The special election is coming up fast voting day is December 2.

It's very bizarre to keep agreeing with MTG and Mitch McConnell.

Good News 🥳🎉

It is amazing that the lawyers for Texas tasked with defending Texas' racial gerrymander are essentially throwing both DOJ and the Governor under the bus.

ICYMI: The GOP is trying to pass Permitting Reform legislation that would gut protections for Tribes and communities to oppose strip mining and oil and gas drilling. These lands have been protected by Tribal treaty rights since the 19th Century. How is this America First?

Hakeem Jeffries was literally voting for a resolution condemning socialism while this meeting was taking place

House Oversight ranking member Robert Garcia is sending a letter to AG Pam Bondi reminding her that the committee has required, under subpoena, that DOJ turn over to the committee all its Jeffrey Epstein files — notably including those tied to ongoing investigations.

Not two weeks after a democratic socialist is elected mayor of New York City, 86 Democratic House members vote to 'condemn socialism.'

Rep. Eugene Vindman: " I want to start by condemning the president for calling for six Democratic members of Congress, all of whom are patriots who served our country to be hanged. It is the kind of thing we expect from a Saudi Crown Prince, not an American President."

This is a load of horseshit. She sat down with Trump's deputy AG and answered his questions for two days. www.politico.com/live-updates...

I was just following orders.

ICE agents in Queens, New York break down a bedroom door and point guns at a mother & her four US citizen children They dragged the mother out by her hair while yelling at the kids to “put your hands up, stupid!” This is tyranny These kids are traumatized It was warrantless and no ID was shown.

Reporting from @kylegriffin1.bsky.social: Sen. Elissa Slotkin tells NBC News that Capitol Police are now with her 24/7. "We've had hundreds and hundreds, if not closer to 1000 threats come in to our phones, our emails" since Trump’s threat. joycevance.substack.com/p/sorry-geor...

🤯

Notice a difference in how Democracy Docket framed Trump's threats vs how legacy media did? This is no accident. They are more interested in normalizing Trump to please their corporate overlords. Democracy Docket is only interested in providing you the truth. Support its work. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

DelBene: Folks are rejecting Republicans and the Trump agenda. It has raised costs for families across the country—food, housing, health care, child care, energy costs—all going up. Trump and Republicans promised to lower costs on day one. It’s a big broken promise. And they don’t even care.

JUST IN: A federal judge says one of the Venezuelan men — illegally deported to El Salvador in March before he was swapped back to Venezuela in a prisoner exchange — is now missing, possibly a victim of the violence he was seeking asylum from. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Child reunites with their father in Elmore County, after a judge ordered the release of four of the eight detainees released so far following last month's FBI and ICE raid in Wilder Idaho

Trump called for members of Congress to be hung for stating that members of the military & the intelligence community shouldn’t follow illegal orders. Read on for details & a discussion of why it’s essential we discuss this, not just push it aside as “politics.” open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

Statement from Rep. Crockett on Threat at D.C. Office

Kelly: "I never expected after serving 25 years in the Navy flying combat missions over Iraq and Kuwait, flying the Space Shuttle, that now I've got to worry about my personal safety and that of my wife, Gabby Giffords, who was already nearly assassinated, because of something the president said."

Remember: The oligarchs who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us so they can become more powerful. They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see where all the wealth and power have gone. Don't fall for it.

So, Congress is on fire 🔥 (or at least the subway) which seems like such a metaphor for the week doesn’t it? ⬇️

Braver than like 90% of reporters for no reason at all.

AOC to @pabloreports.bsky.social : A swastika is one of the clearest symbols of hatred in all of humanity… to remove that designation… indicates a possible collaboration with those very elements, which I think is genuinely frightening to any American.

Coast Guard will no longer classify swastikas, nooses, as hate symbols. The fuck? wapo.st/3Mbd9a6

The truth is simple—justice for survivors is not a partisan issue. For decades, the justice system has failed those abused by Epstein and his associates. Congress has a responsibility to pursue truth, justice, and accountability—wherever that leads. And, we must ensure this never happens again.

Home insurance is in crisis, and Big Oil's lies are to blame. "We’re never going to bend the curve of ever-rising insurance costs without addressing the core driver of higher prices: the worsening climate disasters that Big Oil knowingly made a reality," explains CCI's @iylas.bsky.social.

Unequivocally Yes

REP. RAMIREZ: “Tear gassing a 1 year old 🇺🇸 citizen… Dragging a citizen on her way to work out of her car… Throwing tear gas at a children’s Halloween parade… It’s time to have a serious conversation about defunding ICE.”
