“There’s a baby!” Guns drawn. Windows smashed. With a 1 month old in the car. (They did this as he was coming home from an immigration court appointment— which is illegal in Colorado: coloradosun.com/2025/10/01/i...)

I can’t believe I’m watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES I know we are “used to it” but it is absolutely insane

And after 40 minutes of cringe-Thunderous applause from the generals! Just kidding. Total silence. 👀 🦗 🦗

Stephen Miller is a huge hypocrite and an unelected bureaucrat with unchecked power in the world’s most powerful country, and he happens to love inciting political violence. That makes him one of the most powerful and dangerous men in the world

Kudos to the state of Oregon for immediately fighting back against Trump’s authoritarianism. Tyranny is only possible when we submit to it. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/politics-news/oregon-sues-trump-administration-deployment-national-guard-troops-port-rcna234307

China has not bought a single soybean from the U.S. in over 3 months, thanks to Trump's disastrous tariffs. https://www.politico.com/news/2025/09/28/soybeans-sacrificed-in-trumps-china-gamble-00583232?utm_content=politico/magazine/Politics&utm_source=flipboard

🇺🇸🇺🇦🚀 Vance: US authorities are discussing the possibility of supplying NATO Tomahawk missiles for transfer to Kyiv, the final decision is up to Trump.

It’s not just us. The POTUS, getting told exactly what he is, and how he is viewed by the entire globe.

"No single state should have veto power. And, if a member of the Security Council violates the UN Charter, its voting rights should be suspended." Finnish President Alexander Stubb nails it, at #UNGA80 www.presidentti.fi/en/statement...

Some of us do.

He stood in front of the world at the UN today, and every other word out of his mouth was a lie. I’ll say it again, we’ve not been here before. An American President who lies as he breathes. It’s a terrible place to be. Shame on the media & everyone who’s normalized his lying and/or doesn’t care.

Sen. Chris Murphy: "We are quickly turning into a banana republic. POTUS is employing the full power of the federal government—the FCC, the DOJ—in order to punish, lock up, take down off the air all of his political enemies. This is what happens in Iran, Cuba, and China."

The censorship and the violations of freedom of the press by this regime are unprecedented in our modern history.

I don't agree that Putin does not want peace. I think he desperately wants the war to end to save his position after a catastrophic attack on Ukraine. The problem is that in order to achieve this, he must have a "win" in the shape of Ukraine territories and that is not going to happen.

The need to silence your critics only reveals how weak and fragile you are.

Van Hollen: "Those who cave in -- those like ABC who cave in -- what they do is give the bully an even bigger appetite. When they appease they bully, they put all of us at risk."

According to the New York Times, "The text exchange between Mr. Robinson and his partner was reproduced by prosecutors in the charging document." Reproduced? So no one has seen the actual messages? No screen shots? No time stamps? Also, weren't they on Discord and not SMS? 1/

Exactly this

Lavrov: The Russian army never strikes at civil society and the civilian population. Liar. Warmonger. Criminal.

This should scare the sh#t out of us all. She is not joking.

JD Vance's threat to use the power of government to attack his political opponents under the pretext of national security is nothing new. Decades ago, my father and I watched the infamous Joe McCarthy do the same thing. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/personal-history-my-father-and-joe

"This type of language spurs on depraved people, deranged people who who take that as a cue." Right, Speaker Johnson?

The Deputy AG of the United States is conducting a RICO investigation into the woman yelling at Trump in the restaurant. We’ve come a long way from the statute being used to take down the Gambino crime family.

“Starting on Day One, we will end inflation and make America affordable again, to bring down the prices of all goods.” —Donald Trump, August 2024

Education is the enemy of fascism.

it’s almost as though the right wing’s whole campaign against wokeist anti-free speech was a steaming pile of shit all along

Trump threatens to withhold federal funding from NY if NYC elects Mamdani. An impeachable offense for any other president in any other era. In this one it’s just another Monday.

US envoy Keith Kellogg: If Putin was winning, he'd be in Kyiv.If he was winning,he'd be west of the Dnieper River.If he was winning,he'd be on Odesa.If he was winning,he would have changed the government. Russia is,in fact,losing this war.

Charlie Kirk treated gratitude like it’s a hate crime.

Nancy Pelosi’s husband was brutally attacked in an act of political violence. She never called for revenge. The left didn’t seek violence against the right. She’s urging the opposite: calm the rhetoric, listen to our better angels, and stop the slide into chaos.

NEW: The National Guard analyzed its mission and found it is perceived as "leveraging fear, driving a wedge between civilians and the military, and promoting a sense of shame among troops and the military." www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

"We should not have to live in a country where the Government can seize anyone who looks Latino, speaks Spanish, and appears to work a low wage job. Rather than stand idly by while our constitutional freedoms are lost, I dissent." —Justice Sonia Sotomayor

Russia will borrow more than planned this year to cover the rising budget deficit, Finance Minister Anton Siluanov was quoted as saying on Tuesday, though high interest rates, a strong rouble and a shallow capital market are limiting its capacity. www.reuters.com/markets/euro...

Then what happened?

All of Russia's largest oil companies reported a collapse in profits for the first half of 2025, The Moscow Times writes.

🇺🇦 Syrskyi: If we take the Dobropillya direction, the Russians captured 13.5 sq. km, but they lost 25.5 sq. km. In the Pokrovsk direction, their gain was 5 sq. km, while our troops regained control over 26 sq. km. In the North-Slobozhansky direction AFU recaptured 4 sq. km.

Only someone who avoided the draft would want to rename the Department of Defense to the Department of War.

As if there were a genuine offer on the table promising lasting peace in exchange for a simple land concession. There isn't. Putin's goal isn't land—it's the destruction of Ukrainian sovereignty

KASIE HUNT: Over the summer you said, “There’s no vaccine that’s safe and effective”. Do you still believe that? RFK JR: “I never said that.” KASIE HUNT: “Play the clip.” RFK JR (clip): “There’s no vaccine that is safe and effective.” (March 2024) ht: @cwebbonline.com

Lavrov: "For lasting peace, new territorial realities must be recognized under international law." They want international recognition of Russian-occupied Ukrainian territories. If that happens, that will mean completely destruction of existing international law and order.

Background from @lawfaremedia.org on the limits of Title 32, Section 502(f): "If a ... president were to ... ask governors to send unfederalized Guard personnel into a nonconsenting state—as opposed to a non-state jurisdiction like D.C.—that deployment would violate the Constitution."

National Guard deployment during Los Angeles immigration protests illegal, federal judge rules. Judge Charles Breyer finds Trump administration violated a federal law that prohibits military enforcement of domestic laws.

Putin spoke at the Shanghai Cooperation Organization Summit. He blamed the West for the "Ukrainian crisis" and said that "the root causes of the crisis" must be removed in order for peace to come. Looks like Putin has made his choice: he's going to continue the war.

Numbers and maps don’t lie. russia has captured less than 1% of Ukraine’s territory over the last 1000 days—despite suffering over a million casualties. It now occupies less than it did in March 2022. What a pathetic strategic failure!

⚡️ There will be strikes deep into Russia. Forces and means are already prepared, — Zelensky The President also reported that Russian troops suffered the greatest losses precisely in the Donetsk region, while failing to implement any of their strategic objectives.
