Border Patrol chief Gregory Bovino arrives at the Federal Building in Chicago's Loop this morning. #OnAssignment for @blockclubchi.bsky.social

This dark time should wake us up to the bankruptcy of the corporate Democratic party. It should mark the birth of the people’s Democratic party. Zohran Mamdani and others like him are its future. https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2025/oct/28/zohran-mamdani-democratic-party

Jonathan Karl breaks news in "Retribution" — reprinting the calendar page where Mike Pence kept notes from the heated conversation he had with Trump on the morning of Jan. 6. Trump to Pence: "You'll go down as a wimp ... I made a big mistake 5 years ago." tinyurl.com/bdub2m7u

Hours before this he was bragging about how he supposedly aced a cognitive exam.

Our new health insurance premium feels more like a shakedown‼️ Thank you, @politicsgirl.bsky.social , for sharing your story. You’re right—there are millions like you. Our new premium is over $3K/month for a family of three. Could we scrape it together? Maybe. Should we have to? No. 1/2

Jeffries: They got out of town in September and have refused to come back. So Mike Johnson has resorted to holding these daily press conferences, which are like a Republican family reunion—featuring crazy aunts and uncles talking gibberish to the American people. It’s an embarrassment.

Our presidents should serve all the states, not just the ones that voted for them.

Hell yeah! 🚨 NEW: 22 states, DC, and 3 governors just filed a legal challenge over a $5 billion “contingency fund” meant to keep SNAP benefits going.

With Donald Trump's government shutdown halting SNAP food benefits, California is stepping up. We've fast-tracked $80 million to food banks across the state and deployed hundreds of California National Guard service members to help make sure Californians in need don't go hungry.

ICE thrives on fear & lies but the law is clear: no signed warrant, no entry. Across America, people are standing up, filming raids, refusing to open doors, & protecting each other. This isn’t just one city’s fight: it’s everyone’s. Know your rights. Stay ready. Stand together.

“I haven’t been watching it too much, the World Series. I’m disappointed they didn’t put Pete Rose in.” -Dear Leader forgetting that Pete passed last year and hadn’t played since the ‘80’s…

Lights are on but nobody is home. We have a broken Roomba for President.

Play this when Taco goes! It will b one helluva party when Taco is out! #eminem #byebyetrump

A judge blasted Border Patrol boss Greg Bovino for violating her order to stop using excessive force. “Kids dressed in Halloween costumes walking to a parade do not pose an immediate threat to the safety of a law enforcement officer,” the judge said. blockclubchi.co/4qukilG

Why would Trump provide evidence of his claims? Then you wouldn't be outraged and distracted enough to forget about the Epstein files.

Epstein ballroom

Trump hates that people are calling it the “Epstein Ballroom”. We’re about to make him very upset. 🏴‍☠️

New Yorkers, @handsoffnyc.bsky.social is doing some really great work to prepare for the Trump regime’s escalation in the city. Join their citywide call on Wednesday (10/29) at 7pm to learn how to protect yourself and neighbors from ICE, secure the elections, and join the growing resistance in NYC.

Oregon and Washington joined a multi-state lawsuit on Tuesday seeking to force the Trump administration to continue funding the federal food assistance program as the government shutdown continues.

BREAKING: A federal judge in San Francisco has indefinitely blocked the Trump administration from firing federal workers during the government shutdown.

We live in an episode of Veep

Jack Ciattarelli campaigned on cutting the healthcare benefits of public service retirees. Teachers and other public service employees beware.

Dear Lisa Murkowski Dear Bill Cassidy Dear John Thune Dear Susan Collins Dear Thom Tillis Dear Joni Ernst Dear Shelley Moore Capito Dear Mitch McConnell Dear James Lankford What in the actual fresh fuck are you doing? He's knocking down the White House & giving bombs to #ICEstapo #GOPCowards #GOP

"The judge then ordered Mr. Bovino to appear at the federal courthouse at the end of every weekday to personally provide her with a report on the day’s arrests and incidents..." !! www.nytimes.com/2025/10/28/u...

I can’t 🥺💔

Dave Matthews speaking truth to power! I really appreciate that Dave Matthews is becoming more vocal at his concerts and on the band's page about the crazy stuff happening these days with this ridiculous and treasonous administration.

We need to start talking about the fact that Mike Johnson has basically abolished the House of Representatives. He has made himself irrelevant and pointless, shrinking the speakership so much that his role has become a pathetic echo of what it used to be. How sad.

Minor quibble with the word "appeared" but this is otherwise an accurate description of a thing that happened yesterday. If one of your loved ones did this you would be having hard conversations about giving another family member power of attorney over their bank accounts.

Not only is the rate of ICE unlawfully attacking & detaining U.S. citizens for no reason escalating every day, so are the injuries & the number of senior citizens on the receiving end. This senior citizen was returning from a marathon team training run. These power hungry thugs are out of control.

NEW: An NYPD camera points directly into their bedroom. They’re suing the city over it. It’s the first suit to take on the NYPD’s massive surveillance network, the largest in the world, that police use to track and profile millions of New Yorkers every day theintercept.com/2025/10/28/n...

Trump being guided through a room by the Japanese PM

BREAKING: An ICE agent pointed a gun at a protester and said, “Bang, bang. You’re dead, liberal.” The man he threatened was a U.S. citizen — and a military veteran. (Source: Federal Court Filing)

Complete disregard for human life

2 Arnoldo Bazan, a standout football and soccer player at Alief Hastings High in Houston, now bears the scars of an arrest that should never have happened. To anyone claiming ICE doesn’t target U.S. citizens, have the courage to say it to his face.

1/2 ICE agents violently tackled a father and his teenage son on their way to school—sending the 16-year-old, a U.S. citizen and star athlete, to the hospital with back and neck injuries. “I was just going to school,” he cried. “I’m underage!”

Nice to see the fraudster has really humbled himself and evolved🤔🙃

Lofgren: Now, instead of the president weighing in, we’ve got him doing weird little dances as he lands in Asia, and he’s missing in action. The Senate is refusing to negotiate across party lines, and the House of Representatives isn’t even meeting. I mean, I’ve never seen anything like this.

No matter how hard Trump tries to distract you, he can never silence Virginia Giuffre's story. We are joined by Virginia Giuffre's family and co-author to ensure her Epstein story is never forgotten. Watch the episode here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BJKPTymLsj8

Breaking news: In the dumbest of dumbest moves, at a time when SNAP is ending and the government remains shut down, Texas AG sues Tylenol in an attempt to kiss Trump’s ass. Fixed it for you WAPO.

“I was going to school!” 16 year old citizen assaulted by Trump’s masked goons in unmarked cars and clothes. (“beaten, choked, subjected to racial slurs”) More: www.houstonchronicle.com/news/houston...

So Argentina gets a $40 billion bailout from our tax dollars but devastated small towns here at home — nothing.
