On the year anniversary week of Trump in office for a second time, we seem to have literal death squads patrolling the streets of Democratic-run cities. But sure it was all Trump Derangement Syndrome when some of us were warning about the impending fascism back in 2024. 🤷🏽‍♂️😡

The Trump administration is canceling more than $1.1 billion in grants for energy projects across Washington state, including the Pacific Northwest Hydrogen Hub. That hub will create a clean hydrogen economy across our region.

Pay attention. Something dark might be coming. The murder of Charlie Kirk could have united Americans to confront political violence. Instead, Trump and his anti-democratic radicals look to be readying a campaign to destroy dissent. 1/ Here's what's happening.

ICYMI: For the first time in the Middle East, famine has been officially declared in Gaza under the Integrated Food Security Phase Classification, a system backed by the United Nations, on 22 August 2025.

Yo let’s give it up to @chrisvannini.com for keeping the college football updates coming

Archie Manning is a bad thrower of the ball.

Talerico: When Democrats had a majority in congress, they voted to ban gerrymandering Do you know how many Republicans joined Democrats to ban gerrymandering? Zero. You can spare me both sides rhetoric.

IT IS HAPPENING NOW IN THE WEST BANK: Settlers are invading No Other Land director Hamdan Ballal’s village again and building a new outpost inside the village directly in front of his house.

Some North Carolina Republicans are trying to steal an election for the state’s Supreme Court (by changing the rules AFTER they lost) and disenfranchising thousands of voters. Raise your voice on this latest example of partisan cheating—you can influence the outcome. youtu.be/v9BSe6RnxGA

October 26

I don’t know about you other village elders out there, but this all (including but not limited to DOJ) feels much, much worse than 1973

Trump puts out a post earlier today complaining that Republican Senators aren’t showing up to vote against Biden judicial nominees. Votes were happening, but here is Trump today in Texas with 3 Senators missing votes: Cruz, Hagerty, Cramer.
