Black Kos Tuesday: Rest In Peace and Power, Mrs. Viola Ford Fletcher Commentary by Black Kos Editor Chitown Kev @chitownkev.bsky.social www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...

Ding dong, DOGE is dead. Donald Trump invited an unelected, erratic, and unaccountable billionaire to comb through our personal data and hack our government to pieces. DOGE was an unlawful utter disaster, and that’s why we sued. #DOGE #Connecticut

Major good news updates!! There is so much chaos in this world, so start your day off with some good news. My good news? Our Epstein coverage reached 10s of millions of Americans. We uplifted the voices of the survivors, and I am so proud of our work. Let me know your good news!

I love the smell of MAGA infighting in the morning. 😈

The anti-transgender rhetoric in Congress must STOP! I joined @mcbride.house.gov in urging Speaker Johnson to condemn and correct the rise in dehumanizing rhetoric against our trans neighbors.

In times like these, joy is resistance. Community is the one thing they can’t take from us. When we come together, listen deeply, and choose hope, we build the future New Mexicans deserve.

I like how Joe Biden never fired artillery rounds over an interstate.

For Tolkien fans, a timely passage for No Kings Eve, from WH Auden’s review of Lord of the Rings.

The government said they aren’t releasing SNAP benefits in November — but ALDI is helping families out. Their Thanksgiving meal bundle feeds 10 people for just $40! 🦃 Available now through Christmas Eve, it includes 21 items (like a 14-lb turkey + sides). Share this with everyone!

A reminder for today, because No Kings & also WrestleDream #NoKingsButBrodyKing #FDT

The government is shut down because Trump and the Republicans are hellbent on taking health care away from you. And they won’t even come to the table to talk to us about it. This is not about politics. It's about people. Let’s break it down:

He's really trying his best!

I sure am happy that hockey season is back.

This is Eeyore. He led a sheriff's deputy to his grandma after she fell during their walk. We are awarding him the incredibly rare 15/10 (FB: OkaloosaSheriff)

There are a whole lot of municipal elections this week, as well as a primary for the US House in TN-07. We have AT LEAST two mayoral seats we can flip, so don’t sleep on this one. Here’s the breakdown: Mon Oct 6 - MD & MA Tue Oct 7 - AK, AL, FL, IA, MA, NH, NC, & TN Wed Oct 8 - MA Sat Oct 11 - LA

Fixed this for you, Speaker Johnson. #GovernmentShutdown #MikeJohnson #TrumpShutdown

It’s up and it’s the best and worst thing we’ve ever done. 🤼▶️ youtu.be/FdsyVBRAubk?...

Oop! 🫢

Gentle reminder that every branch of government right now has a Republican majority: Republican majority Congress Republican majority SCOTUS Republican majority Executive Branch Just in case you forgot lol

Congratulations, Chunk! You deserve it! Fat Bear Champ!

A cute timeline cleanse 💜

Anyone who blames democrats for this is just an unserious person. Well then again, Joni Ernst did say when asked about health care "we're all gonna die anyway"

President Trump and Congressional Republicans just shut down the government because they refused to stop your health care costs from rising. Let me be clear: Republicans are in charge of the White House, House, and Senate. This is their shutdown.

The government has shut down so I will refuse to pay taxes for the time it is out of service. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
