Congratulations!

Why are ICE agents being paid during the shutdown, but not air traffic controllers? 🤨

Backyard Birds - Great Blue Heron perched in my tree. Don’t see this often.

TACO is NOT building a ballroom. He is building a bunker. Booze Allen is not an architecture firm. It’s a defense contractor.

The squeaker of the house.

Couple of regular citizens doing the jobs of our elected officials

I knew a guy who worked on a window project at the WH years ago. The bids took months, each tiny detail was excruciatingly strict, and security background checks for every worker took even longer. No way this gilded ballsroom project is being done according to ANY required protocols.

Kristi Noem's dilemma: What to wear on Halloween when everyday is dress up.

So they didn’t like the ad. Let’s just post Reagan’s 5 min speech against tariffs as it appears on YouTube. Over and over. On all platforms (some of y’all are still on X). *1981 Sherrilyn horrified by 2025 Sherrilyn saying “let’s post Reagan’s speech.” youtu.be/5t5QK03KXPc

Your regular reminder that we desperately need to overturn Citizens United and get big money out of politics. It is among the worst Supreme Court decisions in history. It corrupts our political system every day.

Epstein Ballroom. That's what it is.

Ben Meiselas calls on those with standing to act: seek an injunction to halt Trump’s White House ballroom. Argue fraud—Trump claimed he’d pay and not alter the structure—and use the damage to the East Wing as the emergency basis. Demand discovery now.

omg! "Demolition crews have begun tearing down part of the White House... "Construction teams Monday were demolishing a portion of the East Wing, with a backhoe ripping through the structure..." www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Republicans in charge of Congress have abdicated all responsibility for governing the nation to Trump. There are no checks. There are no balances. No Kings.

It was only eight days ago that 300 federal agents descended on a Chicago apartment complex at 3:00AM on a Tuesday morning, zip tying its residents (some of them CHILDREN) and denying them the opportunity call a lawyer. Don't let the never-ending shit-news-cycle get in your way of remembering that.

EPSTEIN FILES

Insurance rates up $2000. Food benefits cut off. Farmers unable to sell their crops. Skyrocketing national debt. $40 billion to Argentina. America First!

“Swear her in! Swear her in!” #TrumpEpsteinCoverup

What a 🤡🤡🤡 show!

Adelita Grijalva won her election to Congress over two weeks ago, but Mike Johnson still hasn't sworn her in. Why the delay? Perhaps it's because Grijalva would cast the final vote needed to release the Epstein files.

From Epstein to health care cuts, it's all one story. Republicans are running a billionaire protection racket.

It’s sad that some folks only ‘see the light’ when it hits home. We were sent here to represent hundreds of thousands of people, not just our households. It’s time for Republicans to remember their oath and do right by the people they serve.

This.

There definitely have been patterns

Good. This is the way.

Totally unacceptable that Speaker Johnson won’t swear in Adelita Grijalva immediately. He refused to swear her in on Tuesday, and now he's refusing to swear her in tomorrow, though she is in Washington and stands ready.

Remember that MLK said America suffers not just from "the vitriolic words and actions of the bad people but for the appalling silence of the good people."

Damn right — lock him up!!

2022 — a confession:

Well Mr Franklin it turns out we couldn’t keep the Republic

@altmadison.bsky.social I just heard Jeff Tweedy for the first time. New favorite. Enough

The next wannabe governor from Florida was spared prison, had his record sealed, and got not one, but three chances at redemption. Now he’s pushing a D.C. crime bill that would deny those same chances to young adults in the District. That screams “opportunities for me, but not for thee.”

This is extrajudicial execution, without any clear threat to the US, no authorization from Congress, and far beyond even Article II. The military is not the president's personal hit squad. Or wasn't, until now.

There's no excuse for the Vice President of the United States to use a heinous killing as an occasion to baselessly frame political opponents as accomplices to murder while threatening to use the power of the government to attack them. This dangerous rhetoric will only fan the flames.

Another day with a rapist as the President of the United States.

This can't be reposted enough.

My neighbor in Orlando mentioned this EXACT concern to me last night!

If not for the deployment of the military, this would be the biggest story right now. Or at least it should be... "In recent weeks, the Department of Justice (DOJ) has doubled down on its sweeping bid to wrangle private voter data from states — including by threatening legal action."

Let’s get this done. We all agree!

Love this. Preach!

RFK lied to my face. He said he hadn’t fired any scientists. RFK has fired over 3,000 scientists from HHS. It’s shameful. He must resign.

this post will never not make me snort
