Everyday, we open the news and see more people abducted by ICE on the premises of a Home Depot. We call on Home denounce ICE raids on their properties and protect their customers Until then, we will use the power that corporations listen to - our collective wallets. #BoycottHomeDepot

It's time to acknowledge reality:   Our health system is broken. It's time to guarantee good-quality care to every man, woman & child in this country.   Our campaign finance system is broken. It's time to get rid of Citizens United and publicly fund elections.   Let’s do it.

Health insurance costs jumped for workers & employers in 2025. This will get worse if the GOP refuses to extend ACA subsidies. Meanwhile, the seven largest health insurance companies made a combined $71B in profits in 2024. Still not sure we need Medicare for All?

Here’s what’s at stake in the shutdown: If Republicans get their way, 50,000 Americans will die unnecessarily every year. 15 million will lose their health care. 20 million will see their premiums double. All so they can give a trillion dollar tax break to the 1%.

Trump's Big Ugly Bill includes a $39B annual business tax break for millionaires. For that same amount, we could extend the expiring ACA tax credits for a year — and still have $7B left over. Priorities.

$170B for ICE and Border Patrol $40B for Argentina $1B to refurbish Trump's Qatar jet $230M for Trump's DOJ "compensation" $200M for Kristi Noem's jets $98M for Trump's golf outings But no money to lower your healthcare costs.

America's Sleeping Giant roared when police attacked civil rights marchers. And after tens of thousands of young Americans were killed in Vietnam. And when Nixon tried to cover up Watergate. Today it roars once more — at the tyrant in the Oval Office.

Sanders: Saturday, millions of people are going to come out on a No Kings day. Speaker Johnson said this is a hate America rally because people are coming out expressing their concerns.. It’s not a hate America rally, it's a love America rally.

AOC: You're damn right that it's a Democratic priority to keep people from getting poisoned, from dangerous chemicals  You're damn right that it's a Democratic priority to bring down the cost of housing If they want to say that that's a Democratic priority, they're right,

Join us! Let us show that we still believe in the audacity of HOPE! We can continue to turn the tide. Find a No Kings event near you at www.nokings.org. #NoKings #SpeakOut

Nurse: Asking our friends and neighbors[...]to pay more than double for their premiums is going to force people off their health insurance[...]instead of working with Democrats to lower health care cost, Republicans shut down the government and took a vacation.

No money for healthcare, no money for veterans, no money for farmers. But good news: Trump just doubled Argentina’s bailout to $40 billion.

Billionaire tax cuts are a policy choice. Cutting healthcare for millions is a policy choice. Cutting food assistance for children is a policy choice. Taking from the poor and giving to the rich is a policy choice. Make no mistake: Trump and the GOP just chose to do this.

Argentina. Qatar. Trump is selling out America, piece by piece. Where did America First go?

“King Donald The First. F*ck that.” Robert De Niro wants to see you in the streets on October 18 to show the world that America has no kings, and power still belongs to the people: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i... #NoKings

Don’t believe Trump’s lies about undocumented immigrants.

Mr. Trump said "We could have much better health care than we have right now." No kidding. 20+ million will see their premiums double. 15 million thrown off health care entirely. Pres. Trump, in case you didn’t know, this is what the shutdown is about. End your health care cuts.

We need a tax system where everyone pays their fair share. Not a system that benefits one group over another.

DRAIN THE SWAMP

Excited to talk to Political Science Professor Corey Brettschneider @democracyprof.bsky.social on the likely downfall of the Trump dictatorship - only on The Weekend Show, tonight at 8/5pm. @meidastouch.com www.youtube.com/watch?v=c5qt...

Presidents? SCOTUS gives them immunity. Corporations? SCOTUS makes it easier for them to pollute. Billionaires? SCOTUS says they can buy elections. But if you look Latino, speak Spanish, or work at a low wage job, SCOTUS says you can be abducted by masked agents. The legacy of the Roberts court.

According to eyewitnesses, armed ICE agents dragged kids out of their beds in the middle of the night, zip tied them and put them in rented vans while raiding an * entire apartment building* on the South Side of Chicago. www.youtube.com/watch?v=vOXO...

Trump's recent speech made it clear exactly where the enemy is. The enemy isn't abroad... it's you. Listen to the LP Pod to hear the latest on Trump's domestic use of the U.S. Army: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yzaYOj7T8UQ

There’s an off ramp as wide as the world to get out of this. Real bipartisanship and solving a real health care problem for constituents should be the order of the day.

We believe healthcare is a right for every American. But starting today, millions of people will be notified that they are being priced out of their insurance thanks to Republican policies. Enough is enough. The GOP may shut down the government, but we will stand tall for YOU.

WATCH: "They are underwater across the board, and they know it. And that is causing them to double down in public. But it is backfiring. That is why—whether it's a shutdown, whether it's all of this—they want us to blink first. And we have too much to save," says AOC.

Folks — this is not a normal government shutdown. Let me explain the stakes and how we got here.

In a sane country with competent leadership, the 50 highest-ranking Democrats would call a press conference to denounce what just happened as a threat to the republic and demand Trump's immediate impeachment and removal from office. I don't know he could make his intentions more clear.

She told America. We told America. Now, it's here.

This government shut down is all about whether Republicans will get away with raising health care premiums by 75% for 20 million Americans and throwing 15 million people off their health care. We can't allow that to happen.

Look who’s the snowflake now. https://youtu.be/L3UPVLrclAk

We are witnessing the rise of two very separate and distinct Americas: One for the billionaire class. One for everybody else. Our country is not supposed to be run by a handful of wealthy oligarchs while a majority of people struggle to afford the basic necessities. youtu.be/3I_f1DkMddU?...

The function of the American health care system is to make huge profits for the insurance and drug companies. Not acceptable. Our job is to fight for the U.S. to join the rest of the industrialized world and guarantee health care to all as a human right.

Kamala was right, she warned us about this Those Epstein files gotta be really bad, release them. Where's our deep throat?

Freedom is not about saying nice things or agreeing with those in power. It is not flattering the President of the United States. It is the right to express your point of view without government interference. We must not allow anybody to take that freedom away. www.youtube.com/watch?v=bYTY...

🚨 BREAKING: James Comey posts a video statement following his indictment "My family and I have known for years that there are costs to standing up to Donald Trump...But I'm not afraid. And I hope you're not either...And I'm innocent. So let's have a trial and keep the faith."

Ask yourself if this is the kind of country you want to live in

kudos to @adamserwer.bsky.social who wrote the piece that gets at the core of what's been happening over the last ten months. regular people are standing up, at real risk. elites are folding like cheap umbrellas www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Trump's popularity has fallen dramatically, because more and more Americans see that he has failed to deliver the economic results he promised.

The richest man on earth owns X. The second richest man on earth is about to be a major owner of TikTok. The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post. See the problem here?

everything about this @jamellebouie.net video is spot on, but I particularly appreciated the observation that the Trump admin is attempting to create a real-world version of AI slop as part of their propaganda efforts.

Jimmy Kimmel isn't returning to the airwaves because of "thoughtful conversations" with Disney executives. He's back because consumers sent Disney a clear message: selling out our fundamental rights is not an acceptable cost of doing business.

"When fascism comes to America, it will be wrapped in the flag and carrying a cross." Sinclair Lewis

Pete Buttigieg's message to CEOs and companies that Trump targets.

Jasmine Crockett: "The rhetoric that Charlie Kirk continuously put out there was rhetoric that specifically targeted people of color ... I was going to honor somebody who decided that they were going to negatively talk about me… Yeah, I'm not honoring that kind of stuff"

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion. The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion. Our problem isn't a lack of resources. Our problem is ever-expanding inequality.

You can run but you can’t hide, Donald. youtu.be/s5FiW5Bir4Y

AOC: We should be clear about who Charlie Kirk was. A man who believed that the civil rights act that granted black Americans the right to vote was a mistake… His rhetoric and beliefs were ignorant, uneducated, and sought to disenfranchise millions of Americans.
