Crime is down in San Francisco thanks to California Highway Patrol's ongoing efforts with local partners to seize illicit drugs and remove firearms from our streets. With strong state investments and community partnerships, our work to make our neighborhoods safer and more secure is paying off.

ANOTHER DISASTER AT DOBROPYLIA: RUSSIA NEVER LEARNS The battle began with another, this time quite large effort by the Russians, to breakthrough to their surrounded troops. I’m a little surprised they’re even bothered but they made an effort. At this stage in the war a force of 25 fast bikes, 6

Explosions were heard overnight in Russia’s Saratov and Volgograd regions. Details on the damage and targets are still being clarified.

“If the democrats don’t let us be unchecked lords of America we are going to defund everything they enjoy, like for example continuing to have a society.” Hm. I’m gonna have to go ahead and say, in the spirit of the Founding Fathers, go fuck yourselves.

"In an authoritarian context, all journalism will tend toward propaganda unless it is explicitly formulated as anti-authoritarian. Unless an institution is explicitly designed to counter authoritarianism, it will end up aiding the authoritarians."

One day to the first open public townhalls in 3 years in Platteville, Black River Falls & Stevens Point! Hear how @derrickvanorden and the GOP voted to raise your healthcare premiums & take healthcare away from 15 million people. Join me! I’m doing 7 town halls in 10 days. DVO - none in 3 years.

Supercut of comments from Republicans today alone about the No Kings rallies taking place this weekend. This has to be some of the worst, and most anti-American, coordinated messaging of all time.

Pam Bondi has basically said anyone visiting the US is subject to arrest and incarceration at any point, if law officials deem the individual a “threat”. Bang goes the rest of the international tourism trade.

Innocent people wouldn't do everything in their power to hide the Epstein files.

Mexico just shook up its Supreme Court: judges are now elected by the public, terms cut, salaries capped, and the number reduced.

Back in my day, having a swastika in your congressional office would've been a resigning and/or being expelled kind of offense

Why are you still watching cbs news with bari “I’m only a three” weiss? cbs news is maga propaganda! Stop torturing yourself.

This Supreme Court case in Louisiana is about one thing, and one thing only: reinstituting Jim Crow by way of ensuring that Black Americans are taxed without receiving representation in Congress. Everything else is noise and bluster. This stolen Supreme Court is going to send us back to the 1860s.

My super modern regulatory plan is that any entity named for a thing from Tolkien has to publicly explain why Tolkien wouldn’t immediately throw it into Mount Doom

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

America has no kings. That’s kind of the whole point.

JD Vance said today on the TPUSA podcast that these guys were “just a bunch of kids in a chat room.” bsky.app/profile/blue...

JUST IN: A federal judge in San Francisco has HALTED Trump’s plan to lay off thousands of federal workers during his shutdown, calling it “unlawful” and “politically motivated.” Judge Illston said Trump acted as if “the laws don’t apply to them anymore.”

The fact that No Kings vexes people like Talia Jane is not an important reason to go. But it is nice, and you may have it, as a treat.

Mockler: I have spent all my formative years watching the President talk about the opposition party like they should not exist. His claim to fame in politics was saying that Obama was not born in America.

"Pablo" is picking oranges in Woodlake, CA. He shares, "We fill around 5 bins in a 6 hour work day. The work is very hard on the bodies as they have to go up and down a 16 foot ladder while carrying a sack of oranges that weighs 60lbs-80 lbs." #WeFeedYou

Colorado is scrambling to process 900+ unemployment claims from federal workers during the government shutdown and the food pantry at Buckley Space Force Base has seen demand double

Taylor suggested it was the result of "foul play," like some nefarious Dem operator snuck into his office, pinned the flag on his bulletin board, and nobody noticed. That strains credulity on multiple levels, but Politico quoted Taylor uncritically.

Displayed. Not “found.” Openly and proudly displayed. There is a huge difference between them.

The crowd that’s always trying to prosecute 14 year olds as adults would like you to know that any Republican younger than Chuck Grassley is entitled to a pass for youthful indiscretions.

It appears it want an act of vandalism. I love how Politico found out about it: "POLITICO obtained an image taken during a virtual meeting that shows the flag pinned to what appears to be a cubicle wall behind Angelo Elia, one of Taylor’s staffers" Is Angelo Elia a "young Republican?"

The passive voice used here is not helpful. Try "An American flag altered to include a swastika was prominently displayed in Rep. Dan Taylor's office" See?

Capitol Police called to investigate swastika in GOP congressional office An American flag altered to include an image of a swastika was found in Rep. Dave Taylor’s office. www.politico.com/news/2025/10...

Is brainwashing irreversible? Absolutely appalled at the number of Scots, of my era, who buy the Daily Mail. A retiring editor said that their success resulted from giving people something or someone to hate and boy is that obvious when you talk to their readership.

Boyle: Mike Johnson and House Republicans have decided to do their own version of quiet quitting — they canceled session three weeks ago, they canceled session two weeks ago, and they’ve now canceled it last week and this week. There is clearly no strategy there other than pure, sheer laziness

Nothing says "peace" like firing missiles from your own warships into your own country.

Governor Newsom has issued a response on social media:

BREAKING EXCLUSIVE: Trump may launch missiles from warships into California this Friday and Saturday as part of what is being described as a “vanity parade” and shut down portions of the I-5 during the No Kings protests meidasnews.com/news/exclusi...

SF Chronicle joins the LA Times in confirming MeidasTouch’s reporting

I’m old enough to remember when we had a system of checks & balances that involved Congress, when Congress controlled the purse and legislated, and the president respected the Constitution & rule of law. I’m old enough to remember when a U.S. president wouldn’t want to be King George or a dictator.

There will be so many “I didn’t think it would be THIS bad” takes. And those are the folks who need to look inward and ask why they were OK with it for so long but won’t.
