I just signed this petition — join me! www.act4icarus.org

Rep. Yassamin Ansari has set up a table and this sign outside Speaker Johnson’s office.

I Love BlueSky! (obviously)

New Name ⬇️ SLEEPY TACO

@captmarkkelly.bsky.social @gallego.senate.gov The Republicans have proven time and time again that they cannot be trusted and that their word means absolutely NOTHING. A “commitment” from them is about as good as a piece of used toilet paper. Don’t be suckers. Stay strong. Do NOT cave! #Pinks

Love it George!!

Just so we’re clear, Trump doesn’t want to do this. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/06/u...

We approve this message.

With the airline PROBLEM happening now, we need a list of the issues we face if Dems cave. They are Serious. WE don’t like being blamed even though many understand the blame is BS.

🔥 @agiftfromtodd.bsky.social : "Y’all get it now?? Do you understand what’s possible? I don't wanna hear no more 'my vote doesn't matter. Nothing ever changes.' Look what happens when you participate. We win everything. There are more of us… for the rest of your damn life, you gotta vote.”

Wow! Thanks for posting this fabulous rendition of one of my favorites

The primary problem w/ AI is that it is so hard to detect. Experts can get it wrong. So… pieces of shite like Mafia Don can simply complain it “is fake”…

🚨 CNBC: "Announced corporate job cuts surging past 1 million so far this year, with 153,000 new layoffs just in October according to Challenger. That is the worst October since 2003."

ICE is a domestic terrorist organization.

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.

Caught lying again.

Texas… it’s not just Grijalva…. #TrumpEpsteinFilesCoverUp

A “clean” CR??? Not. This is just another shake down from the shake-down king. He’s now squeezing air traffic. His minions claim it is “clean” but it has bombs in it!

Let’s not forget that embryos are “lost” during IVF too (same as in abortion), but of course the so-called “Christians” forget this..

This is going to be a shitshow, so we need to remind each other to be patient and kind. TSA has been working without pay. 📌 The FAA announced major restrictions that experts say could lead to thousands of flights being canceled as the government shutdown drags into day 37.

Now THAT’S a Project I can support!! 👊

Some happy peace for today:

Here’s a good one from my Calif cousin:

Truth:

Good catch from the past, but so true!

Zohran Mamdani ran on freezing the rent in NYC. Abigail Spanberger ran on supporting fired federal workers and lowering the cost of living in VA. Mikie Sherrill ran on lowering utility bills in NJ. Ensuring people can afford to live a decent life is the path forward.

ah, perhaps instead of pumping millions into endless factional infighting Dem donors could invest in making local Dem organizations genuine civic spaces that can reach people during and between elections

Oh, you simple-minded, wheezing gargoyle . . . you were very much on the ballot. You are blamed for the shutdown. You are blamed from SNAP shutting down. You are blamed for a bad economy. And numerous people interviewed last night mentioned that seeing the East Wing destroyed motivated them to vote.

This really hasn’t gotten enough attention this week. @wired.com #ICE www.wired.com/story/fbi-wa...

Man @gavinnewsom’s team doesn’t mess around

All the pearl-clutching about Zohran Mamdani--by right-wingers who elected a half-senile old TV star president--is very amusing. For once the shoe is on the other foot.

Mr. "I Don't Take Responsibility At All" thinks the MASSIVE BLUE WAVE was because he wasn't on the ballot, not a Major Referendum on his 2nd Term. Turns out folks prefer feeding the hungry over building expen$ive, tacky Ballrooms. Looking forward to the midterms... 🌊 #AccountabilityIsComing

Good morning to these future governors!

Beshear: Let me be clear. The president has both the funding and the authority to fund snap during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.

If Mamdani started having NYC cops and NYS troopers guard immigrants at their hearings, and LITERALLY ARREST* ICE & CBP thugs who try to kidnap them, Trump would have aneurysm. *ARREST as in physically detain in custody. Not a "strongly worded letter from a judge or senator" but ACTUAL ARREST, k?

That's true. We've got him, Newsom, Pritzer & Jeffries speaking up & out! Obama did a lot for the outcome of this election in a couple states, as well. We've been in dire need of strong leadership and hoping more will start speaking out.

Mamdani: "My message to ICE agents & to everyone across this city is that everyone will be held to the same standard of the law. If you violate it, you must be held accountable. There is sadly a sense growing that certain people are allowed to violate that law, whether they be POTUS or ICE agents."

Was the cheddar sharp?

This potential break, on one of Trump’s two signature policies, would be a major check on the second Trump administration and its unilateral vision of power. So, why now and why in this case? www.huffpost.com/entry/suprem...

Good on them!

Love the handle @AwesomeNewsom

Gavin Newsom is rocking. He's roasting #TraitorTrump like no one has seen before. During these tough times when the chips are down, he's shining like a beacon of hope. A true leader always thinks about the people & never stops fighting for them. 💪💪💪 Democrats Assemble!!

I thought the takeaway from the French Revolution was high food prices are bad.

Hilarious!
