“Russia is cheering on this dysfunction...” @katiephang.bsky.social

I’m calling this the Epstein shutdown. As long as the government is shut down they can’t release the files. How bad must the files be for them to do anything and everything to keep us from seeing it?

#ResistanceEarth #BlueEarth This is the kind of leadership we so desperately need. Pope Leo has called on everyone to pressure governments to do more about climate change. The Pope is also taking action by committing to put solar panels on all Vatican buildings. www.cnn.com/2025/10/01/c...

Release the jobs report. And while you’re at it, release the Epstein files.

Sanders: I am not a great fan of the affordable care act. I believe in medicare for all. I think that health care is a human right, but I will be damned if I'm going to see people in Vermont and around this country see a doubling in their premiums.

For the record, undocumented people CANNOT sign up for federal programs!

It’s honestly shocking to me that tech has effectively rolled over and accepted it now costs $100K to hire a foreign worker. The degree of capitulation during his second presidency has been quite stunning.

This is an Epstein shutdown.

CUOMO: I'm not used to seeing naked propaganda on a government website. Are you worried about violating the Hatch Act? TURNER: We're not worried at all. This is about letting the American people know what's going on. C: It's not true. That's why I'm bringing it up. That's why it's propaganda.

#bernie and #AOC today

Hertling: His comments about putting hands back on recruits… We moved away from that 30 years ago because it’s ineffective… You know where it didn’t go away? The Russian army.

Donald Trump shut down the government because he doesn't want you to have healthcare. But this isn’t just on him. Democrats MUST use their leverage to protect our rights, but it can’t end there. Schumer and Jeffries can’t just go on TV or write letters, they need clear demands. We need action now.

The guy who bankrupted six casinos just shut down the government for a SECOND time.

You CANNOT call yourself a patriot while declaring your own people the enemy. That is not strength. That is not America.

Congrats Stephen King! 🥳 Your goal is to terrify. You scare the hell out of em. You nailed it! 🏆

The Justice Department eliminated 275 positions and shuttered its Organized Crime Drug Enforcement Task Forces. The restructuring affects 140 federal employees through elimination or reassignment, marking the largest DOJ reorganization in two decades reut.rs/4nxYuUg

Today, I'm signing legislation to safeguard our elections and the voice of every voter. It's now illegal to use contests or payments to get people to register to vote. And in the 2026 election, voters have the chance to repeal our state's ban on the public financing of elections.

A new KFF study reports: 24 million Americans will see their health care premiums under the Affordable Care Act DOUBLE. Further, 15 million people will be thrown off their health care entirely.   Unacceptable. We can’t subject millions of Americans to this unnecessary suffering.

Some of us were talking about both subjects before it was cool.

Bernie and AOC: If you only have to watch one video to understand the reason why the shutdown is happening, this is that one. #TrumpShutdown

When you see how excited Trump, Russ Vought, and Republicans are about the government shutdown, it becomes pretty obvious the reason why they refused to negotiate a compromise with Democrats is because they wanted this and they completely own this, regardless of their lies.

America so needs to rid themselves of this shackle.

This is not a fight about tax credits. This is a fight over your ability to go to a pharmacy and afford your insulin. We have the chance to protect the health care of millions of Americans. We need to take it.

Have started this and it's already a superb read. Fania here finishes an essay with "So, if you are still, in any reasonable way, ‘pro-Israel’ at the present horrendous moment, please consider backing its civil society rather than its calamitous government. You can no longer support both."

Sad that this still needs repeating. #antisemitism #Manchester @faniaoz-salzberger.bsky.social
