No Kings' Day protesting is as American as apple pie. What's not American is bailing out Argentina with 20 billion dollars while military members wait in line at food banks.

NEW: Jim Jordan wants to question Jack Smith about his search of Mar-a-Lago, but Merrick Garland executed that search months before Jack Smith was even appointed. One of several lies in this letter demanding Jack Smith's testimony. judiciary.house.gov/sites/evo-su...

I see that this small-minded puritanical pixie is laser-focused on getting the government reopened and the troops paid.

If Mike Johnson is refusing to call the House back into session during the shutdown, then we’ll do the work right here the Bronx. The New York Essential plan is being eliminated entirely next year due to the GOP healthcare cuts. People’s lives are at stake. And that’s why we’re fighting back.

Our nation’s story can’t be told without the story of the Indigenous people who first called this land home. On Indigenous Peoples Day, we honor their histories, contributions, and resilience. We must continue to work towards a future rooted in justice and equality.

The Oct. 18th "No Kings Day of Peaceful Action" has now surpassed 2,500 community events across all 50 states, per No Kings organizers. All of these events were "organized by average Americans across personal, political, and geographic demographics."

Obama: "When you see an administration suggest that ordinary street crime is an insurrection or a terrorist act, that is a genuine effort to weaken how we have understood democracy."

Saturday is going to be huge, boisterous and joyful: “It doesn’t matter if you’ve never protested before. This is a place for you if you believe we don’t do kings in this country.” - @ezralevin.bsky.social to @maddow.msnbc.com Please join us on No Kings Day: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i... #NoKings

Be there. Saturday, October 18th. www.nokings.org

Translation: they gave him a plane and filled his family’s pockets

Please, please participate in an event near you!!

On this date, Matthew Shephard died 27 years ago. He was beaten, tortured, and left for dead on fence for being gay. Please keep him and his wonderful mother Judy in your thoughts. And let's all work for a world where such horrific things do not happen to anyone. ❤️🏳️‍🌈

This weekend, Trump said “the Biden FBI” placed 274 agents in the January 6 insurrectionist mob. He wrote “If this is so, which it is, a lot of very good people will be owed big apologies.” But it ISN’T so: TRUMP was still POTUS until January 20. It was the TRUMP FBI. Oops. Never mind. 👑 😳😵‍💫😎😟

😢😢😢

This is insane! Why the masks?!!!

More costumes! More seniors playing the ukulele! More group dance! It makes clear how insane Trump and his sycophants are.

🤷🏽‍♂️ 🇺🇸 💰

BREAKING: Friday night massacre underway at CDC. Doznes of "disease detectives," high-level scientists, entire Washington staff and editors of the MMWR (Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report) have all been RIFed and received the following notice:

Amazing what happens when you give the guy a plane

Congratulations to new Nobel Peace Prize laureate María Corina Machado for her courageous struggle to bring democracy to Venezuela.

Thou shalt not shoot pastors in the head with smoke bombs. I shouldn’t have to say this.

This is insane!

Kristi Noem, while governor of South Dakota, supplemented her roughly $130,000 salary by secretly accepting $80,000 donated to a political nonprofit she was affiliated with, records show. She never disclosed this income on federal ethics forms. (Published June)

Indicting your political enemies because they’re your enemies, not because they’ve committed crimes, is unAmerican.

Johnson and Lauer are stalling. If Grijalva isn’t sworn in, it gives them time to pressure one of the 4 Republicans who signed the discharge petition to flip. The reason they’re working this hard to shield the Epstein files is because Trump’s name is all over them. RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES

My choice for the Nobel Peace Prize this year: Chef José Andrés and the World Central Kitchen.

So they weren’t peaceful tourists? I’m losing the plot. (Also, that means he pardoned Antifa, in case anyone cares)

20 paragraphs down in the NBC News story that broke the information that the administration is considering invoking the Insurrection Act is the report that Stephen Miller is driving the issue.

it’s all just a grift

Apart from helping Comey's selective prosecution defense, this also means the president of the United States uses direct messages on Truth Social to communicate with cabinet officials. I didn't know that, but we can be sure intelligence agencies all over the planet already did.

Just like shutting down USAID, mindlessly cancelling grants en masse has some pretty fucking real consequences

I tried all day to join antifa. I was thwarted! •No website. •No email. •No Substack. •No Instagram. •No LinkedIn •No TikTok •Not even a lousy Facebook page. I wonder if Pam Bondi can help me find them.

Hey Bible boy: "For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me." Matthew 25:35-36

Mike Johnson’s abrupt closure of the House had more to do with stalling a congressional investigation into Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking operation than previously reported, and it appears to have been a direct response to the Treasury’s surrender of Epstein’s financial records.

It's been over 9 months since the Palisades and Eaton Fires tore through Los Angeles. We asked for federal support, but we haven’t heard a word from the White House. Not a single offer. Is this what leadership looks like? Abandoning the American people when they call for help?

I'll say his name... David Rose, HERO! RIP 🩵💔 @cwabadger.bsky.social @chantingcrow.bsky.social @jillyelli.bsky.social @habsmtlcanadiens.bsky.social @oceanlvr4ever.bsky.social @mimiwegs.bsky.social @docent1.bsky.social @chaserbaybe.bsky.social @stretch18.bsky.social @notdontrmp.bsky.social

We would like to thank Kristi Noem for bringing cameras with her everywhere and collecting evidence for her future trial at The Hague.

Anyone disagree that they were right about everything? BOTH OF THEM! Please vote accordingly in the Special Elections in November and in the midterms next year! 🗳️💙

I wouldn’t advise anyone in Portland to walk your dog near this building.

This is Adelita Grijalva. She was elected to Congress two weeks ago, officially making her the final vote needed to force the release of the Epstein files. She has still not been sworn in because Mike Johnson refuses to do so.
