Free speech! and Sovereignty! mean that the US President can block anyone, in any country, from uttering a word he does not approve. That all nations must kneel in apology for any criticism of him. Conservative and Liberal Americans reject dictatorship and the poison it brings to us all.

It has been enormously difficult to see our members at American Families United go through forced family separation. Here's the story of Jenni and her husband. "Mexican father, reflecting a trend, leaves family of 19 years and self-deports due to threat of arrest." abcnews.go.com/US/mexican-f...

Outraged by the Jan. 6 Capitol riot, a wilderness survival trainer spent years undercover climbing the ranks of right-wing militias. He didn’t tell police or the FBI. He didn’t tell family or friends. The one person he told was ProPublica reporter @josh-kaplan.bsky.social. (Published January)

In my entire life, I've never seen any President actively ask the Supreme Court to intervene so that they don't have to feed hungry people. It's truly obscene, I don't care what party or religion you belong to. It's foul and inexcusable.

We should be proud of our capital city! We are blessed to have such a beautiful design. Let's cherish it more! youtu.be/UqETk3RxiJA?...

💥 Democracy boot camp: cardio, core, and confrontation. No excuses left. 🏃‍♀️✊

@sanders.senate.gov: "We have already had 15 Republicans in the Senate defy Trump and say, 'Release the SNAP funds.' So I think that if we had held firm, it would be the Republicans who would yield. That was not the position of these 8 Democrats."

Although not as nationally famous as Zohran Mamdani, Seattle also has a progressive candidate focused on public transit, affordable housing, child care, and stronger renter protections. She’s also taking on a well-known corporate Democrat—incumbent Bruce Harrell.

Tapper: Angus King said standing up to Donald Trump didn't work. Sanders: Maybe Angus didn't notice the elections on Tuesday. I thought that they worked pretty well.

“After a year spent organizing to try to convince the Democratic Party to unify and oppose this regime, here’s where I am: The time for convincing is over. We need new leadership.” - @ezralevin.bsky.social Demand that your Dem senators call on Schumer to step aside: indivisible.org/resource/cal...

RFK Jr: "President Trump is revising the dietary guidelines which is gonna dramatically change the food culture in this country."

Ingraham: "Why are people saying they are anxious about the economy?" Trump: "I don't know that they are saying that. I think the polls are fake. We have the greatest economy we've ever had."

After leukemia treatments failed, Alyssa, at age 13, was told she would die. Then, doctors tried an experimental gene-edited therapy. She became the 1st human to try the treatment made possible by U.S. federal funding. Now 16, she’s cancer-free. RESEARCH SAVES LIVES

I’m going to rant and rave A LOT about how there are (almost certainly) going to be major cuts to state provided HCBS. (Home and Community Based Services, separate from mandated Long Term Services/Supports) Why not give ya a quick breakdown of what some of those community focused programs are!?

Here’s how a 50-year mortgage would work

Friends - The Government might be shutdown. But we are not, nor is 9/11 Cancer! Today we travel back to the Hill for 30 plus meetings tomorrow on H.R1410 the WTCHP Corrections Act of 2025. We now have 99 cosponsors and when/if they reopen we will force this lifesaving legislation on their plate!

“The richest man in the world, who has no interiority and no ability to understand art, also owns a giant machine for creating and distributing an endless amount of soulless simulacra and kitsch” is basically the plot of like a Kundera novel or possibly a Fellini film and that’s very funny to me

This is a very quick break down of what happened in the Senate over the weekend. While I'm more than disappointed that they just took the L on ACA help, it is good to see SNAP & furloughed feds catch a much needed break. Call your reps. Hit @resist.bot. We're not out of the woods yet. Stay loud.

"If Democrats didn't exist, it would be necessary for Republicans to invent them." -- Elie Voltaire.

Voters are feeling the rising costs of health care and want Congress to make lowering prices a top priority, but both parties are locked in a battle over the status quo — preserving expanded subsidies under the Affordable Care Act. kffhealthnews.org/news/article...

Trump mentions a "couple of mistakes" in personnel who he "got rid of"

Not many people are talking about the children being harmed by #ICELawlessness but it's important to talk about. What's happening to these kids is being paid for by our tax dollars. We're paying for the torture of children. I know this is beyond grim, but we must let people know about this!

Tim Kaine on backlash he's getting: "I got the first good night's sleep last night that I've gotten since Oct 1, b/c I wasn't worried about being able to look Capitol Police in the eye when I walked in, or what a furloughed fed worker would say to me at church, or what somebody would say about SNAP"

🚨This 16 year old was living a normal life until this administration took over the country. ICE is the enemy of humanity, decency, integrity, and all that used to represent this country. Meanwhile, Trump is building a private army, one that will be more ruthless and violent. 1/2

MSNBC is going to have a bunch of Dem operatives on to lie to Dem voters. All of it is WWF.

New York AG James said she's received complaints of stores in her state refusing EBT cards and has already sent out several cease and desist letters. Stores are not allowed to refuse SNAP benefits. If this happens to you, call the AG's hotline to report at 1-800-771-7755.

📌 Kamala is not playing 🔥🐥

Missouri State Rep. John Voss (R-Cape Girardeau) tells This Week in Missouri Politics that his focus on next session is dealing with negative consequences and "additional burdens" of the One Big Beautiful Bill. "The One Big Beautiful Bill is putting some additional burdens on the state."

"Hundreds of billions of dollars in new breaks for big businesses and investors... contributing hundreds of billions of dollars to the federal deficit, on top of the trillions that the legislation signed by Trump in July is already adding to the deficit..." www.nytimes.com/2025/11/08/b...

I spoke to CNN about how demoralizing it was to watch Stanford leadership stay silent while contrarians on campus launched unscientific attacks to stifle Stanford researchers. Now, those attacks have gone nationwide and much of MAHA leadership have ties to Stanford. www.cnn.com/2025/11/08/p...

I think what we are witnessing is the end of this version of capitalism as we know it. Companies and their own intersts are eating each other alive. Health insurance demands higher monthly premiums. The airlines are now admitting their dependence on the government to simply function. 🧵 ...

ICE = Secret Police

There’s ONE area where prices are down: promised “rebate” checks. $̶5̶0̶0̶0̶ —> $2000

Shut us down for good reason. Open back up without any of those reasons having been fixed. You want us to have confidence in you? You want us to think YOU can lead US? Don’t get me wrong, it’s good to have a chance to be back.. but our pain produced nothing in return.

Just spent 40 days falling behind on all my bills, thinking it would be worth it because Trump would be politically crippled and restrained moving forward. Instead, our leadership has empowered him even more and effectively ended the ACA. No Dem who supports Schumer as leader gets my support again.

This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful. Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened. This is exactly what’s wrong with Democratic Party leadership and why we need more people in Congress who will actually hold the line.

BREAKING President Trump has granted a pardon to a slew of Trump world figures, including Rudy Giuliani, Mark Meadows, and Sidney Powell, for their efforts to overturn the 2020 election.
