The White House is asking people not to share pictures of the East Wing because it’s even worse today.

these are a different set of republican racist texts than the previous set of republican racist and nazi texts

Many people are outraged that Trump is demolishing part of the White House. But of course Trump can't do it without help. It's ACECO LLC of Silver Spring MD ("full-service demolition") that is tearing down the People's House. You can call them and let them know how you feel. 1/

Whatever you think of the White House as a building or a symbol, the fact is that the image of it being torn apart on a whim two days after 7 million people hit the streets against autocracy is going to make a HUGE amount of people really, really angry, and that's an energy that should be harnessed.

The Democrats need to get a hell of a lot of cameras on the White House and plaster the photos everywhere. It's not just the brazen symbol of a megalomaniac destroying national heritage; it's happening during a government shutdown when ordinary people aren't getting paid. Make every American see it.

btw if wic gets cut and you’re short on formula, do not water down your baby’s formula. ask for help and trust people will show up to make sure your baby stays fed. let me know and i’ll make sure of it.

A visual analogy of what Trump is doing to our democracy.

so the ceasefire is done for, israel has resumed attacking gaza fully after claiming the idf was attacked by anti-tank fire, which hamas strenuously denies any knowledge of. they sought out whatever flimsy excuse they could now that they have the hostages back.

Police just detained two protesters. One dressed as the Statue of the Liberty.

If anyone's wondering how this is possible, the answer is these strike teams are moving terrifyingly fast. Grab first, ask questions later. We were about 8-15 minutes behind them today for several hours. They're jumping out of vans, chasing people across lawns, taking them from bus stops, etc

When the Nazi group chat ruins your talking points

Anyways if you’re in nyc, Oct. 25th is the last day to register to vote. If you want to give me a birthday gift, please go register and then vote. Early voting starts on Oct. 25th

Old enough to remember when scenes like this would have been unthinkable in America. (It was 9 months ago)

Please be conscious if you protest this weekend that there are feds at the protest. They look like you and they sound like you, not like Steve Buscemi in that one clip with the skateboard. Thinking you can spot them is self delusion. Nobody you haven’t met needs to know your last name.

A mom in Houston reported her 15-year-old son with autism missing. She spent 6 days terrified, searching for him. The whole time, Houston police knew exactly where he was since they helped ICE place him in a refugee facility. This is beyond cruel. www.houstonchronicle.com/news/houston...

ICE agents blocked an ambulance that was trying to take an injured protester to hospital. "We are still not being allowed to leave by ICE officers.” an EMT said on radio When driver tried to get out, an agent yelled, "DON’T YOU EVER DO THAT AGAIN, I WILL SHOOT YOU" www.wweek.com/news/2025/10...

For those who don’t intimately understand how news works and why Bari Weiss’s unearned elevation to head of CBS News matters, I’d recommend watching this in entirety. Also, will forever point out irony of how an admitted DEI hire thinks her hire was meritorious while Black people’s aren’t.

Amazing

This heartfelt and meaningful statement by Portland resident and author Cristina Breshears on another social media platform bears reposting here. I don't think the intent is to idealize Portland but to remind all of us what is important and why. (Posted here with permission.)

Salvation Army seen feeding ICE today. For anyone who doesn't already know about their bigotry, here is more, No need to give them your money this Christmas, or ever.

My publisher’s been very patient. I’m not doing everything I said I’d do to promote this book (out in a few weeks) because I’m an organizer in a city under federal attack. My days are full and emotionally exhausting. Any help getting the word out means a lot. It's a book people need right now.

"even if it's AI, it's at least true" hard to overstate the damage this stuff is doing to people's brains. we're gonna be cleaning the slop out of archives for decades

guards ignore—but are trained—that withdrawal is a life threatening condition, and ignoring someone in withdrawal is both deliberate and indifferent the fact that they were *wrong* about this person’s emergency doesn’t make their conduct any less deliberate or indifferent

Manly men brutalize, terrorize a teen girl

I was already a hard AI-skeptic but this cements my long suspicion that there is no feasible path to anything close to return on invested capital for these data centers. Tech would need 15 to 25 times current AI revenues within the next 2-3 years just to break even. Not financially viable.

Religious leaders here are not mincing words. They have repeatedly used the word "evil." "Detention and deportation are acts that wound the body of Christ, and deny the dignity of God's people."

The elimination of USAID is a moral atrocity and all involved made a choice to enable, and then lie about, ending the lives of some of the most vulnerable people in the world.

"When you strike The Frog with pepper balls, it [splits into a swarm of frogs or calls up all the other frogs in the land]." There's some debate over the text. 🤣🐺

aaand we are officially in the hide-your-neighbors stage

George was just trying to get to work. ICE pepper-sprayed him, dragged him from his car, locked him in a detention center, and placed him on suicide watch. He even missed his young daughter’s birthday in the process. This man is a veteran and American citizen. Don't look away.

Wen should direct more attention to incidents like these because Americans are more likely to respond to brutality to pets than to brutality to human beings.

EL PASO — a family says ICE showed up at their house looking for migrants and shot and KILLED THEIR DOG, then didn’t help them as the agent ran away and was not identified. kfoxtv.com/news/local/e...

Cooked as a country when art can’t be made because we have to take into account the fee-fees of Klan members.

Here are 10 practical tips, based on Retana’s advice, for talking to kids about ICE raids and helping them cope with fear and uncertainty. Each point is presented in english y español. The full guide: lataco.com/kids-ice-tal... By Erick Galindo

I'm sorry but it's just wild we are in the middle of a government shutdown and the House Republicans are REFUSING TO SHOW UP FOR WORK so they can protect billionaire pedophiles and billionaire tax breaks.

The following is REAL footage from Portland, 2025. Viewer discretion is advised.

🔥 DEMOCRATS FIGHTING BACK! Rep. McGovern (D-MA) flips the script: You want work requirements? Start by showing up to work. Millions could lose healthcare while Republicans skip out. "DO YOUR GODDAMN JOB!"

When you accurately report the news.

Kavanaugh stop

It cannot be made clearer. If you continue to support the Harry Potter franchise in any way, you are directly funding the removal of trans people's human rights in the UK.

I might end up talking about this graph all day. I think one thing Dems need to realize is that "Americans" are not buying into the "cities on fire" lies of this admin. It's JUST Republicans. So if you're a governor of a solidly blue state, or a blue-city mayor, the national story is NOT YOURS.

a thing to keep in mind, moving forward, is that if you're ditching this shithole, don't tell us about it on social media until you're safely on the other side

Indie director Barbara Marques has been kidnapped by ICE. She is legally married to a U.S. citizen & was at a green card mtg when she was abducted and prevented from seeing her lawyer. Her husband Tucker May does not know where she is. Please spread the word so he can find her /1

I prefer governments that don’t try to “take the freedom of speech away.”

Dolly Parton’s sister, Freida Parton, is asking for people to pray for her sister’s health.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

Some folks have reported experiencing extended nausea and dizziness since being tear gassed in Brighton Park on Saturday. General reminder to seek medical care even if you think you can tough it out—document it all and start a paper trail. You never know if you may need it.

“We are home now. We marched from the park to ICE, very peaceful crowd. We were standing around ICE pushed us down, sprayed us with chemical and I was hit in the head with a projectile. This was so unprovoked. People have to know that the Feds are attacking people with NO provocation whatsoever.”
