"The Grift Bubble: A Political Theory of American Collapse" "Those who work against the grifters... may be acting from love, or from law, because they know that these things are real. And so they should also know, in acting thus, that they are the patriots." snyder.substack.com/p/the-grift-...

thelefthook.substack.com/p/the-democr... So, so good!

80 people. Basically, Trump and Hegseth are prolific serial killers. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/13/u...

Helpful tracker!

Seriously, Why, Angus, why? From the Portland Press Herald's story about our protest today in Waterville.

Elm Plaza, Waterville. 3-4pm today. Join us!

Mainers show up today in Waterville at Colby!!

thelefthook.substack.com/p/debunking-... Great hour-long discussion about the economy, the regime's relentless lying, and the importance of telling the truth. Fascinating!

Weds., Nov. 12, 3-4pm in Waterville. Join us!

Many Mainers seem (rightly) quite upset about the capitulation caucus! Here are two opportunities to express yourself, non-violently of course. Brunswick today, Waterville tomorrow.

From Ann Telnaes. "Veterans' Day."

It's Veterans' Day. Don't forget our veterans who are struggling!!

Time to start demanding that all our Dem electeds and candidates call for new party leadership in the House and Senate.

1/2: So the Democratic justification for the Senate vote was what: We couldn’t win, so let’s give in for a meaningless vote down the road? Let’s give vulnerable Dems cover? Let’s help our big donors? #DrawnAndQuartered #PoliticalCartoon #BlueWave #DemocratsCave #Senate #Shutdown #Elections2026

contrarian.substack.com/p/incandesce... Great explainer. 17 minutes. Shame on the capitulation caucus!

contrarian.substack.com/p/incandesce... Ezra Levin speaking to Jen Rubin of The Contrarian, explaining what's so terrible about the capitulation of Angus King and seven other Dems to the GOP. 17 minutes.

And on Nov 12:

Boo effing hoo.

Join us.

Live in Maine? Disappointed in Angus? Join us on Weds. in Waterville.

I keep seeing regular Americans taking more risks every day to fight tyranny, want, and cynicism than I see from the opposition party, and I imagine many of those regular Americans are asking themselves what the value proposition of such an opposition party is, really

agreeing to make a terrible deal while your main opponent is quite literally being boo'd on live tv by an entire stadium of people is the kind of political instinct you'd normally only find in a 3 week old dead goldfish

These 8 Senators sold us out to Trump: Hassan King Cortez-Masto Shaheen Kaine Fetterman Durbin Rosen Understand This Fact: Chuck Schumer is behind this. None of these 8 are up for reelection in 2026. Schumer asked them vote yes—they agreed. He's such a coward that he folded and won't even own it.

Schumer (NY) 202 224-6542 Booker (NJ) 202 224-3224 King (ME) 202 224-5344 Hassan (NH) 202 224-3324 Durbin (IL) 202 224-2152 Ossoff (GA) 202 224-3521 Shaheen (NH) 202 224-2841 Gillibrand (NY) 202 224-4451 Masto (NV) 202 224-3542 Warner (VA) 202 224-2023

This is so utterly on brand for the corporate, Vichy Dems. And so utterly depressing. 💔 Call, call, call.

DO NOT CAVE ! @housedemocrats.bsky.social @democrats.senate.gov @schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social

Asking anyone who's got energy to do so to call their Dem Senators and urge them not to back down on healthcare. 🙏 Your friends who are too sick to work to access healthcare are going to be really fucked otherwise. Being too sick to work means no paycheck to cover now-exorbitant marketplace plans.

John Fetterman, Angus King, Maggie Hassan, Dick Durbin, Jon Ossoff, Jeanne Shaheen, Kirsten Gillibrand, Catherine Cortez Masto, Mark Warner, Cory Booker, and of course Chuck Schumer. Maybe others not top of mind. Not all responsible will publicly vote for the cave - that's not how this works.

I called Schumer’s office: (202) 224-6542 I’m livid.🤬

Call your senators now! ☎️ 202-224-3121 ☎️

looks like senate dems are folding on the shutdown in exchange for a doomed vote 40 days from now and nothing else

I'm hearing the same thing. Dems are nearing a surrender. I'm shocked. Largest protest in history + best election night in years + polling showing we're kicking their ass in public opinion. And now Dems may cave. It ain't over til it's over, so please do call if you've got a Dem senator.

Call the United States Capitol switchboard at (202) 224-3121 and they will connect you with your senator's office. If you're represented by one of the squishier centrists, be sure to make a call. Now.

NOOOOOO!! I just called my "independent" Maine senator's (King's) office to beg him to hold the line, though he has already been voting with the GOP, to my great dismay. HOLD the line @senangusking.bsky.social ! Hold the line!!!

NOOOOOOOOOO

Two dozen hardy Mainers out in the cold and freezing rain in Waterville today, standing for democracy as we do every Sunday from 1-2pm! So proud to be in this fight with all of you! ❤️🖇️

Thank you! Next Tues in Wtvl we'll be at the Elm Plaza Tesla charging station for our usual protest (noon-1pm), with signs thanking/supporting our veterans. More than 100,000 vets live in Maine, more than half of them are 65 & older, btw 115 and 150 are homeless, & 7,000 depend on SNAP benefits!

This child needs to be given a time out and then sent back to school where she can learn about the real world outside of the cult that has completely brainwashed her and deprived her brain of factual information and the capacity to recognize it.

NEWS — The Oregon Department of Human Services has issued 100% of November SNAP benefits, per an alert on their website. I've received reports that the funds have already hit recipients' EBT accounts. www.oregon.gov/odhs/news/Pa...

Good for her! Thank you!
