“Anecdotally we have some concerns about some of the shared transportation equipment being used to commit crimes,” Mayor Muriel Bowser Good thing cars are never used to commit crimes!

Texas A&M is no longer a "university". It's a Vacation Bible School with a football team and parking problems.

Obviously this person is very dangerous.

Loved seeing these two folks Dutch cycling in Boston this morning!

It's impossible to build any more housing in America, but luckily we have the politically easy and physically effortless alternative of just removing a third of the population. This clown is the GOP chair in Tarrant County, Texas, the third largest county in the state.

We can have nice things if we choose to! 160mph through Jersey. Thank you @housedemocrats.bsky.social @democrats.senate.gov and Joe Biden for supporting amtrak.

I am digging this new train! Way to go @amtrak.com - it was worth the wait! Keep the rollout of the new fleet going.

I saw someone on my timeline shaming someone else for posting about college football in a time like this. Folks, if we're going to survive a time like this, we're going to need to avoid burning out from an attitude of 24/7 vigilance and constant outrage. Let people find joy where they can, please.

"A team of independent forensic analysts examined their testimony. The experts called it consistent and credible, saying most of the acts described met the United Nations’ definition of torture." In our name, with our tax dollars. Trump II is an indelible stain on our national honor.

"Zohran Mamdani will be the first mayor of New York City in decades not to own a car" Will be exciting to see if he can implement his vision to pedestrianize areas in the congestion pricing zone and dedicate entire streets as combo busways + active transportation

Watch to the end

Can we for the love of god have a new mayor!!!

There is something deeply broken about an economy that creates trillionaires while people get buried under the cost of living and 42 million go hungry. The ultra-rich should realize that my Billionaires Income Tax, aimed at ensuring they pay their fair share, represents the moderate path forward.

Congestion Relief Programs work! We needed NYC to lead on this in the USA. Because if it couldn't be shown to work in NYC, it wouldn't be viable in any US city. This success story will lead to many more! Bravo NYC! @usa.streetsblog.org

A striking feature of Trump 2.0 is that while elites capitulated immediately, ordinary citizens are using democratic institutions--e.g. the right to trial-by-jury--to the absolute hilt in defence of democracy. Robber barons and sincecured pundits gave in; the citizenry fights back harder than ever.

SANDWICH GUY NOT GUILTY.

“This case, ladies and gentleman of the jury, is about a sandwich.” Closing arguments from the defense in the DC sandwich guy case are now underway.

Populist Dems won. Moderate Dems won. We won in blue states. We won in purple states. Maybe the take is that (a) people think Trump is out of control; and (b) people like Dems when we're taking a stand and fighting for what we believe in - as we have been for the last month.

Normal People Don’t Want This Shit is running away with the vote tonight

i hope to see enterprising democrats announce their intent to retire schumer and gillibrand over the next two years.

Do you rich guys want angry bread riot mobs? Because that's how you get angry bread riot mobs.

The dual state is two-faced twice over: it is characterized by a bifurcation in the law, but also by the facade of normalcy, obscuring the fact of an authoritarian state. Life in the early months of Trump’s second presidency hews to this framework in important respects.

This article quotes the university president saying Lia was on the women's swimming and diving team, but she's not on this year's roster on their athletic department website. The NCAA banned her from being on the team when Trump first took office.

Per @chicagotribune.com, the pajama-pants-guy is a former county prosecutor. And he had some things to say. www.chicagotribune.com/2025/10/25/c...

Ah, locals mention the federal court order here, which also requires agents to wear some identification. Also, quite an image in here: masked, fully-geared-out DHS agents getting screamed at in a residential neighborhood by some dude who is barefoot and in pajama pants.

“The President decides major foreign policy approaches based on his personal anger at tv commercials” is almost too stupid to imagine but it’s literally our reality

They send armed goons to kidnap parents in front of their children and then get mad that we don’t thank them for “keeping us safe.” Hell isn’t hot enough for these assholes.

The New York Times publishes a handy guide to which federal forces are terrorizing us at any moment. This is America, 2025.

Changes to Oklahoma’s curriculum rules make it so teachers aren’t supposed to tell students that the Tulsa Race Massacre of 1921 — a defining incident of racial violence in Oklahoma history — was perpetrated by racists. ➡️ Full story: https://propub.li/3WXTkFm

She’s insisted she’s going to run for another term.

This makes me sick. That’s our House, our history. The fact that it happened today stinks of retribution for Saturday.

That disturbing AI video Trump shared is batshit insane, but the wealth class needs Trump to keep populist anger contained and controlled, so everything is done to normalize it and obscure the obvious insanity. Meanwhile, someone calling for free public transit is covered like the antichrist.

#NoKings Cincinnati

Solidarity from Newark NJ!!

Tifo at the Portland Timbers match tonight celebrates the many nations from which our players come, as ICE assaults immigrants and their allies in the city under the false pretense of an “emergency.”

#NoKings Miami!

Hasan: The great irony is of course that Donald Trump is the son of an immigrant. The grandson of an immigrant and married to an immigrant. In fact two of his three wives were immigrants, proving yet again that immigrants will do the jobs that even Americans are not willing to do.

NASHVILLE — Odessa Kelly : “Don’t let them break your soul. Don’t let them break your spirit… the best education we can give to our children is we stand up for what’s right.” #NoKingsInAmerica 🇺🇸

Take note of all these people turning out for protests in small towns in red states. Remember them the next time you’re inclined to write an area off because “they voted for this.”

You have to understand that there is NO accountability for ICE even in theory. You can't sue an ICE agent. They won't be criminally prosecuted for violating your rights. They won't be fired. THE ONLY WAY TO PROTECT YOURSELF FROM ICE IS TO RUN FROM ICE.

These people couldn’t wait to be violent

When Republicans are pre-butting a pro-democracy rally like No Kings and making shit up left and right to scare people, you know they're losing and in panic mode. Pedal to the floor.

A picture is worth a thousand words

Sign you live in a police state

Does this generation of politicians not know they’re allowed to retire?

Bray is a historian at Rutgers who received death threats after landing on Turning Points USA's Professor Watchlist. As a result, he announced he was moving to Europe. And then this happened. This kind of harassment and abuse of scholars is Charlie Kirk's legacy and it's only getting worse.

We aren't on the verge of an authoritarian takeover. We are in the middle of it. But I worry people don't see the whole scheme. They just pay attention to each new daily outrage. So I went to the Senate floor to explain Trump's plan. Here's a 🧵of the speech. It's important.

The same people who insisted devout Catholic Joe Biden was leading a “war on Christianity” are now cheering Trump on as his armed goons assault clergymen.

Trump's face on a coin? Not only is it illegal for a live person to be on currency, but the founders condemned it as monarchical. When someone proposed putting Geo. Washington's head on a coin in 1792 it was voted down as the "flattery & almost idolatrous practice of Monarchies" It's what KINGS do

"Do you have any idea ... how much of the Joint Terrorism Task Force's resources have had to be reprioritized to fight these domestic terrorists?" When there's another *actual* terrorist attack in America, you're going to hear this Stephen Miller quote replayed so much you'll hear it in your sleep.
