The CFPB is one of the most staunch financial watchdogs for the American people. The agency has returned at least $20B to the victims of financial fraud and abuse since 2011. It's no longer protecting consumers now...BECAUSE THIS REGIME DOESN'T WANT IT TO!

Breaking: Capitol Police have been called after a Republican congressional office was just caught displaying a swastika. This comes one day after group chat messages were leaked of young GOP officials saying “I love Hitler” and calling to put Democrats in “gas chambers.”

Solid advice.

ICE is as incompetent as the Russian army.

Keep Posting This. 🖕the 🍊 💩!

The secret power of a people’s movement is that it’s random. It’s neighbors protecting immigrants from ICE. It’s millions canceling Disney+. It’s a man throwing a sandwich. It’s inflatable frogs dancing. Dictators struggle to fight a movement, because they can’t do what they want most—control us.

Huge congrats to Eric Trump on the release of his new book — critics are calling it “deeply personal” and “unintentionally hilarious.” Eric said, "My father is so proud of me."

Here’s my message to Speaker Mike Johnson on the 15th day of this shutdown, from his very own podium.

EXCLUSIVE: Capitol Police are investigating a swastika found in GOP Rep. Dave Taylor’s office. “The content of that image does not reflect the values or standards of this office, my staff, or myself, and I condemn it in the strongest terms," Taylor said in a statement.

There have been plenty of jokes about Republicans forgetting who was president in 2020, but the party’s habit of forgetting about the Jan. 6 attack is far less funny. Speaker Mike Johnson, I’m looking in your direction. www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

A devastating flood tore through Kipnuk; five months earlier, federal funding meant to help the village withstand disasters was abruptly cut. Lee Zeldin revoked the grant, citing a new push to eliminate what he called “wasteful DEI grants.”

First off, that Portland Bike Ride is an annual event, which means that it happens every year. Secondly, I find it extremely hilarious that tiny little man here is scared of naked people while protecting actual pedophiles. 🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️

Bring as many American flags to No Kings as you can.

“Dozens of prominent artists and cultural organizations will participate in a series of artistic demonstrations to protest what authoritarian overreach by the Trump administration. The protests, known as Fall of Freedom, will take place on the weekend of Nov. 21...” www.nytimes.com/2025/10/14/a...

Trump says that, with his illegal mass layoffs, he’s closing “Democrat programs.” But programs like Social Security, education for children with disabilities, & clean water enforcement work for all Americans. If you want to repeal them, send a bill to Congress; if not, hands off.

Instead of working to reopen the government, Trump is using his spare time to go after his political enemies. We need to speak up.

Jeffries: "I remind all of these corrupt individuals, these sycophants -- the statute of limitations is five years. The American people want accountability, deserve accountability, and will get accountability."
