A new report reveals how the Trump administration and members of the president’s family may have been involved in a larger movement in conservative circles to support Andrew and Tristan Tate, right-wing influencers charged with rape, human trafficking and other crimes. https://to.pbs.org/3MzqIAw

Jerome Powell revealed that staffers at the Fed think the government could be overestimating the number of jobs created by 60,000 each month. The true numbers could be closer to a loss of 20,000 jobs a month. trib.al/Hy0ihvh

“Should Schumer stay as senate minority leader?” @aoc.bsky.social : “This is bigger than one person.” (Per CNN Schumer is historically unpopular in the Democratic Party compared to past leaders)

A century ago, a young German woman with MS set out for one of the remotest, most inhospitable islands on Earth, looking for inner freedom. This is what she learned about life: www.themarginalian.org/2024/10/22/d...

Portland ICE facility now.

Hundreds of Portland, Oregon, residents rode their bicycles in the nude to protest U.S. President Donald Trump’s continuous threats to send the National Guard to the city. Stay strong #Portland #BlueCrew #TruthWarriors #Resist #ResistTrump #StrongerTogether #JusticeForAll

LA County declares a state of emergency as a direct result of the federal government’s raids…

Trump just installed Michael Ellis as CIA general counsel, possibly to green light legally dubious CIA ops to do this as an end run around congress.

We are in this together

To note, Google App Store followed suit. What other alert apps will follow?

ICE violence against elderly peaceful protesters

Solidarity for Democracy

We are not the Germany of ‘33 but we must continue to speak up, support those upholding the Constitution, and work collectively to secure a working Democracy that continues into our future.

An unprecedented violation of our civic and Constitutional traditions. Calling every military leader in the world back to the U.S. to hear a wildly inappropriate partisan campaign speech followed by a fascist call to use the military against Americans.

The professionalism that our most senior military commanders exhibited with their silence today despite repeated attempts by Hegseth & Trump begging them to please clap was encouraging, & should be an example to all troops when they try to exploit them for partisan politics. bsky.app/profile/atru...

History will strip the lie bare!

The reality in Portland!

Deeply disturbing

Where are our foundations and standards in this time? Where is our rule of law?

Another horrific arrest of a US citizen, by unidentified supposed ICE, this time in IOWA city where they have already arrested the superintendent of the school district without cause, today!

So many coverups. Release the Epstein files. Release the Homan tapes. Release the Venezuelan fishing boats evidence.

We are a nation of immigrants

I just spoke to NYC Comptroller Brad Lander as he left police custody following his arrest at immigration court. Here’s what he said:

“I know it’s scary and I know that there’s a lot of doubt, but now is the time for us to find our heroism.” @markruffalo.bsky.social hopes to see you in the streets on October 18: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i... #NoKings

Mark Ruffalo on why he's joining the No Kings protests: These things are shocking to us, but they're also bringing us forward together in a way that needs to happen right now -- for a complete reimagining of our democracy. #NoKingsKickoff @markruffalo.bsky.social

Is it important that the media can report the news without government censorship? In the United States, 92% say it is important. www.pewresearch.org/global/2025/...

Overcrowded cells. Unsanitary conditions. Limited access to food and water. These are the conditions that ICE has created at 26 Federal Plaza, which eleven elected officials sought to expose. Instead, they were arrested. They must be released right now — and inspectors let in.

Today I introduced the No Political Enemies Act, with a powerhouse group of co-sponsors, to put in law protections for prosecution or harassment for political speech. Trump is shamelessly exploiting the death of Charlie Kirk to try to destroy his opposition. We cannot let him.

This administration is responsible for the most blatant attacks on the free press in American history. What will be left of the First Amendment when he’s done?

I’m old enough to remember when Bob Iger, whose company recently paid $16 million to settle a meritless Trump lawsuit, and who just indefinitely suspended Jimmy Kimmel under pressure from the Trump administration, was a chair for the **Committee to Protect Journalists** dinner.

Yesterday, Trump was threatening a reporter. Today, he coerced ABC to kick Kimmel off the air. He's also suing NYT & WSJ for reporting the truth. And it's not just media: he's threatening private companies, colleges, Congress—everyone. Enough. NONE OF US should cave. We ALL need to push back.

WTF? Does “the right way” to “practice politics” include lying re factual matters (eg saying Black Women have too little brainpower to be “taken seriously”)? Mourning Kirk’s murder & defending his right to make his wild claims doesn’t excuse praising his political MO www.nytimes.com/2025/09/11/o...
