I voted YES on Prop 50 because we cannot let anyone silence the will of the people. California is fighting fire with fire and standing up for democracy everywhere. Vote yes on Prop 50 by mail or in person on Election Day, this Tuesday, November 4.

A long-deranged and deeply depraved man with a pronouncedly and acceleratingly deteriorating mind announces that he intends to play with the large arsenal of nuclear weapons he controls. But it's okay, because he's not seeking a third term.

"A nuclear war cannot be won and must never be fought" - Ronald Reagan

Mockler: I’m 23 years old, and Gen Zers have spent all of our formative years living in a political system that’s purely dysfunctional. People in my generation see the president posting memes online rather than actually negotiating with the other side.

You’ve probably heard but I have been federally indicted by Trump’s DOJ. We now have to cover the costs of a campaign *and* a legal battle to preserve our First Amendment rights. Help us win this fight by chipping in at katforillinois.com/legal

Still awaiting my George $oros payment for showing up at #NoKINGS_Day & staying until noon. Somebody slipped this 20 under my door, but something about it seems fake.

The President wants to use the military to crack down on Americans who are exercising their 1st Amendment rights to oppose him. I can’t think of a better reason to insist on exercising those rights.

Clearing up those "had a stroke" rumors with some impeccable StrokePosting™. Masterful gambit sir!

I don’t know what cartoon tomfoolery physics just occurred but somehow my chair just decked me in my forehead. Somehow it’s only mildly annoying instead of utterly infuriating. If I was any less patient and chill, I’d smash the dang thing with a hammer. Anyway, how y’all doing?

Pennsylvania has an important Supreme Court race coming up on Tuesday, November 4. If you live in the Keystone State, or know someone who does, vote YES to retain three justices who will protect your fundamental rights and freedoms.

This is so fucked up.

Even Grok gets it. Federal workers aren’t living large, they’re just surviving. Like most Americans they’re one missed paycheck away from the edge. When rent, food, and gas eat your whole check, there’s nothing left to save. PS- this dude’s a jerk.

Over the next few weeks, millions of Americans are going to receive notices that their healthcare costs are set to explode in 2026. Many more will log onto online insurance marketplaces only to find that they’ve been priced out of the coverage they rely on.

The president had a MRI but won't say why. He had bruises on his hands but wouldn't say why. He just had an 'annual medical' even though he already had his annual medical. He got shot in the ear but has never released the medical records relating to it. How is any of this ok?

Nat. Guard Members Will Refuse Chicago Deployment. Will More Join Them?

California is preparing to send its own state observers to watch over federal monitors from President Donald Trump’s Department of Justice. The move underscores a growing standoff between state election officials and a federal government many voting rights advocates say is weaponizing oversight.

I can’t qWHITE figure out what’s wrong here.

🚨BREAKING: A group of Staten Island voters filed a lawsuit in state court Monday arguing New York’s 2024 congressional map dilutes the voting power of Black and Latino residents in violation of state law. My law firm represents the plaintiffs. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

@vanhollen.senate.gov This bill is crap. It's censorship, period. It allows discrimination against the entire LGBTQ+ community. The conditions are vague, broad, and entirely without merit. I need you to stop this bill before real harm is done to innocent people just because they exist.

@kim.senate.gov this is the wrong move and I think you should listen to impacted communities and reconsider

I have a very bad feeling about this...

The squeaker of the house.

His plan to go after the midterms is clear

Donald Trump is telling his DOJ to prosecute people involved in defeating him in 2020. He will claim the 2025 California referendum was fraudulent. He is going to try to impose voter ID and ban mail-in and early voting for 2026. I will do everything I can in the courtroom and in public to stop him.

might be one of the funniest videos i’ve ever seen

Gee, I can’t imagine why…

Gallego: "It's murder. It's very simple. If this president feels they are doing something illegally, then he should be using the Coast Guard. If this is an act of war, then you use our military and then you come and talk to us first. But this is murder ... it's disgusting."

it's hard to Nazi what's going on here

The people in Arizona’s 7th congressional district have been without representation in Congress for over 7 months. Mike Johnson continues to deny them representation because their duly elected representative has pledged to sign the petition to release the Epstein files.

Color me shocked. They’re ALL such goddamn hypocrites.

pretty funny that he waited just long enough for it to not matter anymore and also for it to damage the house minority leader completely forever

This is their playbook for the midterms. Intimidation and harassment - if we are lucky it will only be that. Because their full playbook is most likely much worse but this is the warmup act.

🚨‼️As of yesterday KOSA is at 64 cosponsors with @vanhollen.senate.gov + @kim.senate.gov - who claim to support LGTBQ+ rights but are clearly okay with supporting legislation that’ll censor us off the internet- newly signed on. You know what to do: www.stopkosa.com

Merkley: "What we've seen is that democracies no longer die bc men w/guns go in and take it over. Instead, it's electeds who erode the separation of power. If you have a rubber-stamp Congress & courts that deliver more power to the executive, suddenly you have an authoritarian state. It's here now."

It's not just what Andrew Cuomo is saying—it's who's funding him. The single largest donor to a pro-Cuomo SuperPAC is Airbnb cofounder/board member Joe Gebbia, who promotes vile and racist messages about immigrants.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 80th day out of the last 92. The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown. It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

Detestable, and something VA Dems need to crack down on immediately. Dear Leader isn't the only one with the ability to coerce UVA.

NYT Confirms: Trump will DEMOLISH the ENTIRE East Wing of the White House. The Times says the East Wing is expected to be fully torn down by the weekend to make room for Trump's ballroom for billionaires — despite the fact that Trump pledged the White House would not be touched.
