Face the Nation anchor checks Mike Johnson’s shutdown spin in real time #TrumpShutdown

What’s the big hurry for dictatorship? Trump’s UN speech warned the world. His Quantico speech warned the generals. Now his silence speaks louder than words. “When the general is weak and without authority, there will be disorder in the ranks.” —Sun Tzu www.mind-war.com/p/the-big-hu...

Oregon AG Rayfield: The first thing that might’ve told you the federal government wasn’t doing so hot was when they started off some of their arguments by talking about Truth Social as their source of facts. Actually got a comment from the judge: “Is this really how you’re going to move forward?”

A WILD ONE: A man broke his leg during an arrest by ICE at a car wash south of L.A. ICE has held him under 24/7 guard at a hospital, registering him under a pseudonym, for *37 days* without telling him why. A judge has ordered his immediate release. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

🟥 Blindspot for the Right: Words that Trump’s Department of Energy is reportedly telling staff not to say, per Politico:

This is bully language. The present administration if full of serial rapists, molesters, and abusers. They believe that is what alpha males look like. Men who are so scared that we will discover how weak and lame they are that they beat up and intimidate women whenever they can.

JD Vance is a bitter queen

"Has she ever said THANK YOU???" Sounds Familiar 🤡

MAGA has a real issue with American Citizens that have Spanish as their natural language. What ever happened to Freedom and Justice For All?

Nope absolutely never

Chicago journalists are doing a helluva job staying on top of the ICE incursion here.

Absolutely outrageous. 🤬

The Pentagon is ordering journalists to sign a gag pledge—even with respect to gathering unclassified information. Here are the facts. #Pentagon #Journalism #FreeSpeech #FirstAmendment #Democracy #BreakingNews #NewsExplained

Great article by David R. Lurie in @atrupar.com Public Notice: Lessons from a Red Scare www.publicnotice.co/p/emma-goldm...

Excuse me? ‘Not strictly true’ ― it is a flat-out lie! It is a flat-out lie!” she said as Dokoupil struggled to get a word in. “There is nothing in Medicaid, nothing in Medicare, that permits one undocumented immigrant to get one dollar of assistance! None!” www.huffpost.com/entry/elizab...

DOKOUPIL: Republicans says what you're really fighting for is taxpayer dollars for illegal aliens. I know that's not strictly true-- ELIZABETH WARREN: Excuse me, not strictly true? It is a flat out lie!

Robert Morris "served as a faith adviser to President Donald Trump."

Great video by @cheeefsgirl on Instagram. Hard to say more without spoilers... Excellent material for schools. Strangely, it can’t be shared on Facebook 🤔 Take a look and let me know if you think this is deliberate censorship by #Meta #Facebook #FB?

Jack Daniels in service of Data centers for AI stops 45 years of helping local ranchers & farmers feed their livestock. Decades of neighbors helping neighbors. JD had to get rid of it, farmers took & transported free. Now they lose there herds & Musk & Meta gets more brobible.com/culture/arti...

Jesus spent most of his time healing the sick. Today, we have politicians in Congress with “Christ-follower” in their Twitter bios — but they’re trying to kick the sick off their healthcare. And they’re willing to shut down the government to do it.

Block this bot who's trying to blame Democrats for failing to release the Epstein files. bsky.app/profile/bles...

So when do Americans get to end the subsidies for millionaires and billionaires grazing their cattle for free on public lands this cost the American taxpayer billions of dollars every year

🙏 💚

First they shut down the government. Then they tampered with federal workers’ emails to shift the blame. This is corruption in broad daylight.

I just signed into law clear guardrails for intoxicating hemp products in California. For too long, predatory manufacturers have exploited loopholes to market these items to children. That stops today.

HIGHER ED EXTORTION: Trump offers “compact” to top universities—including Vanderbilt. Grants in exchange for: fewer foreign students, conservative gender policies, protected GOP ideology & speech limits on staff. Will Vandy to submit to bullying for a bag of cash? www.nytimes.com/2025/10/02/u...

What do you say, Mike Johnson? Let the American people see who’s lying to them. If you won’t take the challenge, that means the liar is you.

Today, I sat for a deposition in Mike Flynn’s defamation lawsuit against me. But he doesn’t want a trial, he wants silence—a mode that I do not possess. All of us must stop being afraid of confrontation—it is the only way to effectively use our power. www.mind-war.com/p/power-and-...

UPDATE: Bessent asked on CNBC if he could justify the $20 billion bailout for Argentina, which benefits "wealthy Americans" with "interests down there" Bessent says it is "false" that he is helping wealthy Americans. FACT: The bailout benefits Bessent's friend, hedge fund billionaire Rob Citrone.

We can all see Trump's cognitive decline is getting worse by the day. That is why JD Vance is in the media more. Trump's handlers are grooming him to take over. But who is really running the government right now?! It's likely Stephen Miller.

Such a good article. Glenn explains why trump's speech was a disaster. Take a moment to read👇 “I don’t think anything could have galvanized the view among our military leadership of that Donald Trump is dangerously unfit.”

Anthony Tata isn’t a footnote...he’s a fuse. The man who called Obama a “terrorist” now reshapes the DoD.😡👇 www.jackhopkinsnow.com

Republicans aren’t punishing Democrats, they’re gutting their own voters’ health care. ACA tax credits keep millions covered. Red states rely on them MORE, 17M people vs 7M in blue states. Red states: 8.5% of residents Blue states: 3.2% of residents

Europe must take a more aggressive approach with Russia by shooting down drones that enter European airspace and boarding shadow fleet ships illicitly transporting oil to deprive Moscow of war revenue, French President Emmanuel Macron said on Thursday. https://to.pbs.org/3W6Nm4Z

IF ANY CALIFORNIA UNIVERSITY SIGNS THIS RADICAL AGREEMENT, THEY'LL LOSE BILLIONS IN STATE FUNDING — INCLUDING CAL GRANTS — INSTANTLY. CALIFORNIA WILL NOT BANKROLL SCHOOLS THAT SELL OUT THEIR STUDENTS, PROFESSORS, RESEARCHERS, AND SURRENDER ACADEMIC FREEDOM.

Meiselas: You’re saying to Donald Trump, to Senator Thune, to JD Vance: show up at the Capitol. We’re going to do this in front of the press and address these issues before the American people, correct? Jeffries: That’s my position—and we’ll even let Mike Johnson into the meeting as well.

Tenney: "Everything the Democrats say the Republicans are they're projecting. They're authoritarians -- that's what communism and socialism leads to -- and if you disagree with them, they silence you."

"Paramount Officially Acquiring The Free Press and Making Bari Weiss CBS News Editor in Chief." Yes a person who tried to get college professors fired for expressing concern for Palestinian Christians and Muslims will head CBS news. Turn the channel.

She called it. The media blew it by letting a serial liar off the hook

PM of Albania having a good laugh with President of Azerbaijan and Macron about Trump repeatedly claiming that he ended the war between their two countries which were not at war with each other.

“More turmoil at Virginia US attorney's office following Comey indictment: 2 top prosecutors fired, sources say” 10/2/25 abcnews.go.com/Politics/tur...

This is so indefensibly insane: Speaker Johnson is refusing to seat Congresswoman-elect Adelita Grijalva because she'll be the 218th vote to release the Epstein files. Johnson swore in Rep Walkinshaw (VA) w/in 24 hours. Johnson is abandoning his job to instead protect a convicted child sex predator
