BREAKING: Gavin Newsom just went into Houston, Texas of all places and brought the house down. This part of his speech gives me chills. STAND UP FOR DEMOCRACY!!

Contrast this with the video I just posted of Americans standing in food lines this weekend, in the rain and cold. Don't have to wonder where the SNAP funds are.

WATCH: Long lines outside a Cleveland food bank after the Trump administration cut off SNAP funding during the shutdown.

Someone asked if I have been shadowbanned on here, because they haven’t seen my posts for weeks. I am not shadowbanned, I’ve just been quiet on socials and substack. I’ve focusing on teaching and navigating the fallout from my firing from @washingtonpost.com — it’s been psychologically hard.

The Republicans are going all the way to the Supreme Court to starve hungry children but please tell me again how the shutdown is the fault of the Democrats.

Thank you Sean Duffy!

saw this. had to share.

Newsom: Let’s stand up for the rule of law. Let’s stand up for a system of checks and balances. And let’s stand up for our democracy—for all of us.

His "concept" of a Healthcare Plan is finally revealed. It involves eliminating the Insurance Industry & people purchasing their OWN, MUCH BETTER, HEALTHCARE. Unrelated, note his obsessive envy of Obama, historically rated 1 of our finest presidents, who he still believes was born in Kenya. #sad 🤣

Has anyone confirmed that the $23 billion in contingency funds for SNAP Benefits is still actually there?

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

🚨I can’t tell where this officer who swore to “protect and serve” by way of starvation is being filmed, but I can see he takes great pleasure in depravity. What a disgrace to humanity! Shame!

Trump shutdown.

The path forward is simple and achievable: reopen the government, extend the existing ACA tax credits for one year, and begin bipartisan talks on long-term healthcare affordability. The ball is in Republicans’ court.

SCHUMER is on the floor now making this offer to end the shutdown: Clean CR Bipartisan "minibus" of approps bills 1-year ACA funding extension Bipartisan cmte to negotiate on health care "This is a reasonable offer that reopens the government, deals with health care affordability."

The Sociopath-In-Chief couldn't be bothered to even turn his head in the direction of a man in the midst of a medical emergency who collapsed in his office. Completely incapable of empathy, the EPSTEIN Files can't be released soon enough. 25/47

House Oversight Ranking Member Robert Garcia has requested that Andrew Mountbatten Windsor, the now-former Prince, appear before Congress for a transcribed interview about Jeffrey Epstein.

This guy doesn’t give a damn…about any other human being. He doesn’t even pretend like he does. He…is a suit full of BS…and a little of his own.

Watching RFK jr run away from someone collapsing feels like a harbinger of things to come

BREAKING: SANDWICH GUY ACQUITTED. NOT GUILTY!

A troubled nation breathes a sigh of relief as the Hoagie Hurler case is finally adjudicated. #NotAllHeroesWearCapes

RFK Jr's response to someone collapsing nearby him was to haul ass out of the room as quickly as possible

“Job cuts hit highest October level in 20 years”

JUST IN: Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announces she will not run for reelection for Congress

Text from a friend:

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 94th day out of the last 106. 12 days of work in 106 days. With full pay and benefits. The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown. It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

Trashing air traffic control To protect a child rapist Starving Americans To protect a child rapist Self-immolating Congress To protect a child rapist Crashing healthcare To protect a child rapist It’s not more complex, moral, or dignified. Call them: 202-224-3121 #RemoveTrump #GOPShutdowm

Trump says we are preparing to invade Nigeria. Apparently that’s what voters said they wanted in the exit polls. Trump: “We’re going to do things to Nigeria that Nigeria’s not gonna be happy about. Guns-a-blazin!”

Republicans are throwing a tantrum because Californians stood up to Donald Trump's election-rigging scheme. Cry harder.

ICE dragged this mom out of a PRESCHOOL. I just donated to help and hope you will too.

Don't worry. They're still getting paid.

Jury has its instructions. MUST find Sandwich Guy acted forcibly, which “can” be shown thru attempt/threat to inflict bodily harm. Assault is any attempt/threat to inflict “any physical injury, however small, including touching offensive to a person of reasonable sensibility.”

The utter stupidity of pursuing a criminal trial against someone for throwing a sandwich that bounced off a bullet proof vest pissing away hundreds of thousands of dollars for this joke is the perfect encapsulation of this Administration.

I launched the American Mobilization Project because the fight can’t wait until 2028 or even 2026. AMP channels thousands of small contributions to anti-Trump mobilization all over the country. 1/ A few groups funded by AMP had big wins last night.

Thank you, Republicans! 😍

Woohoo it's here
