BREAKING: Sen. Chris Murphy on the MAGA Shutdown plus Oregon’s Attorney General questions whether Trump is playing with a full deck. om/live/PXW8Up8e8wU?feature=share

🙏 💚

So…let me see if I have this right. The federal government is gonna shut down in 30hrs, and the party that controls the ENTIRE federal government is trying to blame the party that controls NONE of the federal government for the looming shutdown?

Unconscionable. Unlawful. Un f-ing American. WWJD?

When will we learn that it’s angry young men witj ACCESS to weapons, not ideological bias that is the ROOT cause in all of these?

Fascinating how last week the NFL was practically canonizing a guy who said some pretty vile things about POC’s and this week they invited one to headline the SB halftime show 🥴🤨

People, people, people! The problem isn’t his ideological leanings - it’s troubled young men with ACCESS to GUNS! Church Attacker Is Said to Have Held a Grudge Against Mormons www.nytimes.com/2025/09/29/u...

Perfect - Generals can arrest them both - let’s have ourselves a good ol COUP!!

Republicans control the House, Senate and White House. If the government shuts down, it’s because they chose to shut it down rather than pass a budget that protects our health care and keeps costs from rising. Join us Tuesday in DC - see the rally details here: https://bit.ly/42faIIX #GOPshutdown

History is like science and free speech. It doesn't exist for you to agree or disagree with it, it exists for you to listen to it.

Pat Bagley. Brilliant, as always.

Unfortunately, Donald Trump lying about Portland being a war zone isn't insanity. It is a carefully calculated lie invented by Stephen Miller, cynically intended to provide a pretext for seizing authoritarian power. It isn't random madness, it's calculated fascism.

It's odd that Republicans can do the mental gymnastics to link Tylenol to autism, but not link gun deaths to guns.

This is your daily reminder—not that any is needed—that Trump is an absolute fucking moron.

Every single one of these clips was taken today in downtown Portland. Portland doesn’t want or need a federal takeover. If Trump insists on sending federal “resources” he can start with funding health care, bridges, affordable housing, and wildfire protection to name a few.

We can win the fight for universal health care. Medicare for All will guarantee health care for every American – no matter what.

PRESIDENT TRUMP, IF YOU HAVE TIME TO MEET WITH PUTIN IN ALASKA, YOU HAVE TIME TO MEET WITH DEMOCRATIC LEADERS IN WASHINGTON. COME TO THE TABLE & NEGOTIATE! SHOW YOUR SKILLS & FIGURE OUT HOW TO PROTECT AMERICANS’ HEALTHCARE & KEEP GOVERNMENT OPEN. THANKS FOR YOUR ATTENTION, SIR!

Yikes! Great analogy!!

Yep, c’mon kids - help us de-shame the shift from MAGA to ‘this is NOT who we are! C’mon Dad, you taught me better than this’

Me too! Proudly woke. Go ahead, arrest me for that!

JUST NOW AT THE UN…

"Free speech is not about whether someone else agrees or disagrees; it's about whether you are able to do it." --Jasmine Crockett, just now to Chris Hayes.

It shouldn’t be considered far left to believe in decency & democracy.

All in for this idea!!

Sick. Sick. Sick!!!

This ought to be engraved somewhere.

Seriously sick, deranged, unlawful and inhumane

And oh, btw, the most common use of Tylenol during pregnancy isn’t pain - it’s FEVER - which is incredibly dangerous to both Mom and fetus.

Corrupt, callous conniver

This. Is. Not. US! I will never accept this as our new ‘normal’!

He doesn’t want us to be able to treat all the headaches he’s giving us??

Without. Scientific. Evidence. Unflippinbelievable!

The FDA statement ends with a paragraph undermining its own warning. They signal parents to avoid acetaminophen. Except sometimes. And then: No “causal relationship… established” with ADHD or autism AND Alternatives to acetaminophen have “well-documented adverse impacts.”

💯

Tylenol, schmylenol. Raise your hand if your mom smoked and drank while she was pregnant with you (basically anyone Gen X or older).
