CBS REPORTER: “Undocumented immigrants are not eligible for the health care subsidies. Can you clarify what you’re talking about?” TRUMP: *compares heart sizes, rambles about immigration, makes it clear the talking point is a lie* (parroted by Burchett)

🚨🚨🚨 The Broadview Fire Chief just told HLS that the fence they installed without a permit or authorization poses a risk to those the fire department serves; that they removed the fence to preserve the lives of their community. 💥

Hours before the government shutdown, Donald Trump posted another racist AI video mocking Hakeem Jeffries.

🚩 they’re always trying to flip the script.

This morning, my House Democratic colleagues showed up to work ready to pass a budget that protects health care, invests in our public schools, and lowers costs for hardworking families.    If only the House GOP could say the same...

😵‍💫 he wasn’t hired for his competence 🍸

The thing GOP members of Congress is that Russ Vought’s promises are worth a whole lot less than their institutional powers, and trading the latter for the former is a bad deal

Pete Hegseth says overweight military leaders should resign. Shouldn’t that include Fat Satan?

The illegal release of my records to Jack's campaign ally is now under federal investigation. Jack needs to cooperate fully with investigators and reveal the full extent of his campaign’s participation in this illegal action. www.politico.com/news/2025/09...

The president said, in a televised speech, that he's sending his new, less restrained, more violent military into US cities to practice their brutality on immigrants and minorities, to better train them to apply that brutality to other countries. He said this out loud.

He wants to dictate what the press can say. What a university can teach. Whom a company can employ. And to whom the law shall apply. He who wants all this is not a president, But strives to be a dictator. And all who succumb are not citizens, But subjects.

Mike Johnson cancels votes, locks doors to U.S. House as he has refuses bipartisan negotiations to keep the gov't open

"The point is that voters are hungry for authenticity, for leaders who understand their lives, and for a Democratic Party that fights as hard as the stakes demand." Read @mallorymcmorrow.bsky.social's op-ed on Meidas+. 👉 www.meidasplus.com/p/dont-let-a...

God, I hope this is true 🤣 “You have until Wednesday to swear her (Adelita Grijalva) in…or I will release your Grindr profile and your IP address. I bring receipts, bitch!” RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES

Senator @jeffyarbro.bsky.social (an attorney): “Deploying military units to take part in policing Tennessee citizens violates the Tennessee Constitution… We either have the rule of law or we don’t.” @govbilllee open.substack.com/pub/tnsenate...

IT’S OFFICIAL: We now have more protests planned for October 18 than there were back in June. It’s not even October yet but you’ve already put 2,100 events on the No Kings map. We hope to see you at the largest day of peaceful protest in American history: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i... #NoKings

Make no mistake - the ONLY reason Mike Johnson is delaying #AdelitaGrijalva from taking office is because United States Speaker of the House Johnson is *protecting Trump and pedophiles* named in the #EpsteinFiles. Let that sink in. #Voices4Victory

(solemnly) You've had mail.

Grateful to Annie Farmer, a Long Beach resident, and Epstein survivor for sharing her story. She was only 16. We must release the files and ensure justice for all the victims. Release the files now!

The government of the United States, which is controlled by Donald Trump in the presidency, Republicans in the Senate, and Republicans in the House, will shut down in a few hours. It is the first shutdown since the last time Trump was president and he shut down the government.

BREAKING: This is Donald Trump's Shutdown. Rep. Greg Casar: “There are more mentions of Donald Trump in the Epstein Files than there are House Republicans here in Washington D.C. today.”

75% 🤬 I’m not alone, but we pay over $19K/year for insurance through the ACA for my daughter, my wife, and myself. Like millions of other Americans, we are bracing ourselves to be priced out. We don’t need to just save healthcare. We need to make it better and affordable. #DonaldTrumpsShutdown

portland update: this just crossed the street in front of me holding a bright yellow sign that said WELCOME TO HELL

Don’t believe a word the liars have to say. This fight is about the healthcare of the American people.

Republicans don’t need a single democratic vote to fund their regime. Here’s why. Please share widely.

THEY CLOSED PUBLIC POOLS RATHER THAN SWIM WITH BLACK PEOPLE YOU ARE DEALING WITH THE SAME GROUP OF PEOPLE AS THE FOLKS WHO DID THIS PLEASE WAKE THE FUCK UP

NEW YORK… ICE puts a photographer in the hospital… Completely out of control

There’s more… It was a set up.

NEW: Rachel Maddow drops unseen bodycam footage of feds coordinating the arrest of Newark Mayor Baraka. I REPEAT: the feds ordered his arrest even though he wasn’t breaking any laws. Federal agent: “We are arresting the mayor right now per the Deputy Attorney General of the United States.”

To summarize, they made every flag officer travel to VA to hear the drunk and the draft dodger tell them war crimes are not only permitted but highly encouraged, bullying and harassment are back in style, no fatties or beards are allowed, and if you're a woman in a combat role, get another job.

When the Commander-in-Chief calls the people he swore to protect the enemy, it’s no longer leadership, it’s a blueprint for his impeachment.👇

"I am proud to shut down the government .... I will take the mantle. I will be the one to shut it down." —Donald Trump, Dec. 11, 2018

I thought republicans were the “Save The Children” party. Quite the opposite, it turns out. #EpsteinCoverUp

😬 whoopsy. Freudian!

Is it time YET to file articles of impeachment as Trump is declaring war on American cities as well as stripping away our Healthcare‼️

If you didn’t vote for this you should probably call your reps. All it will take are a couple civilian deaths to create flashpoint in a major city.

The coordinated Hatch Act violations by the White House confirm the lawlessness of this administration. They believe they can ignore the law and Constitution with impunity and the lawless Supreme Court will sign off on it.

I was told government interference or ownership in businesses is communism. However, it actually is fascism - The merging of corporate and state power.

If any other president in all of history said the military should use American cities as a training ground he would be removed from office that same day. The hardest thing to tolerate in all this is how relatively silent elected democrats are. It’s ridiculous.

This passage nearly broke me.

"We are asking the Department of War to deploy to our cities" should be a statement that ends any Governor's political career.

Dear lord this footnote about Kari Lake: her "brazen disinterest in the unambiguous statutory obligations implicates her competence to implement the President’s directives in a manner consistent with fundamental tenets of administrative law."

Clarence Thomas received over $20 million in gifts from Harlan Crow. This included 38 luxury trips costing over $500,000 each, a home for Thomas's mother, tuition for his nephew, and interest-free loans. Should he be criminally charged with bribery? Yes or No??

One person having the power to upend entire industries and economic sectors on a whim every day that puts companies out of business and workers out of jobs with no legislative input is an autocracy, regardless of whether that person initially acquired power through an election.

Look at what the United States Government is citing in the birthright citizenship case. Non-expert legal scholarship and work done hastily in service of their political goals.

This is a sneak preview of election season, 2026. They will try to incite enough civil unrest to cancel elections and maintain their control. They are testing us to see what they can get away with. What they can get us used to. This is not normal. Don't look away.

Trump and his FBI lie about the Michigan shooter (he was MAGA). Dems won't fight back. No fact checking? Trump is on the verge of labeling anyone who opposes him as Antifa and having us arrested. Trump is using our military against American citizens peacefully protesting.

It's not called entrapment when you accept a bribe, it's called corruption. Trump aide Homan accepted $50,000 in bribery sting operation, sources say www.reuters.com/world/us/tru...

Q: Did the president ask the DOJ to close the Homan investigation and does he have to return the $50,000 LEAVITT: Mr. Homan never took the $50,000, so you should get your facts straight ... you had FBI agents going undercover to try and entrap one of the president's top allies and supporters
