I’ve had an insanely busy day, but I’m getting around to digging through the Epstein File release. Lot of redactions so far.

One way that the reaction to Rob Reiner's murder mirrors Charlie Kirk's is that the best way to eulogize each of them is to quote their words, and in both cases, doing so pisses off conservatives.

Under U.S. and international law, servicemembers are not required to – nor should they – follow illegal orders. That is not sedition. At the end of the day, we all swore an oath to the Constitution and not a specific President.

Paging @elfreth.house.gov

Impeachment confession

If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

To “my students and to anyone who might listen, I say: Don’t surrender to AI your ability to read, write and think when others once risked their lives and died for the freedom to do so.” www.huffpost.com/entry/histor...

Service members: REMEMBER YOUR OATH!

To Maryland's trans community: Our state would be incomplete without you. We will continue to defend your rights against the Trump Administration.

@elfreth.house.gov it’s time.

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged. Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

mr president sir theres a story coming about how you intervened to help a sex criminal. no sir, not that sex criminal you helped….no not that one either…sir, please stop guessing sex criminals that you helped. ill give you a hint sir, hes a trafficker. no sir, not that trafficker a different one

No.

Follow The 2 Rogers Rule: If neither Steve nor Fred would do it, you shouldn't either. Protect your team. Be a good neighbor. Punch a Nazi. All are great examples of World Kindness Day.

It’s wild to suggest this is a circular firing squad or something when it’s millions of citizen Democrats who hate it versus 47 elected Democrats who conspired to surrender for nothing. We’re not fighting “each other,” we’re fighting you. There’s only a few dozen of you, but you hold all the power.

On Tuesday, Americans sent Democrats a resounding message. “Fight for us” “Fight for working class Americans” “Fight against Trump’s corruption, criminality and cruelty” 5 days later, Democrat Senators sent Americans a resounding message. “Nah”

Never forget who sold us out: Hassan King Cortez-Masto Shaheen Kaine Fetterman Durbin Rosen

I'm the spouse of an air traffic controller and I could not be more livid at the news that Dems might cave. I called and left voicemails for my Dem senators. If my family can hold the fucking line, so can they.

@alsobrooks.senate.gov @vanhollen.senate.gov hold the line! Don’t cave. Called and left messages!

Our tax dollars should fund #SnapBenefits, not ballrooms for pedophiles. Reskeet if you agree.

you can win without billionaires supporting you you can win without party leadership endorsing you you can win unapologetically standing with every persecuted minority pundits say are too politically toxic to touch we could do everything about this process differently if we wanted to

parliamentary systems, and governments that can get dissolved at the moment they lose popular support, are a way to improve this "lie then smash-and-grab" style of governance.

I'm happy that Mamdani won. But I won't let that get in the way of my celebrating Cuomo losing.

The walls run red with ketchup tonight

At this point, anyone—a university, a law firm, a corporation, a Democrat—bending the knee to Trump is doing it because they want to, not because of any political reality.

PSA: The No Kings PAC is not affiliated with and had no role in putting on the 10/18 mobilization. If you get a spammy text from them claiming your donation will be 5x matched, know that it's not from anyone involved in the No Kings protest (and please direct your angry emails to them, not us)

Maryland folks: Community Action Council or Howard County: cac-hc.org Maryland Food Bank: mdfoodbank.org

Did you know that over 1.3M active duty service members and veterans rely on SNAP benefits to feed themselves and their families? Now you know.

I'm sure someone else has already made the connection, but I think part of what's making those photos of the white house being bulldozed so viscerally upsetting is that they look an awful lot like the pentagon did in fall 2001.

@elfreth.house.gov would you consider giving this a boost/repost for visibility? The Howard Community Food bank has an urgent call for donations out.

Why does everyone keep calling it “The Epstein Ballroom?” Please stop repeating “The Epstein Ballroom” because it is not called “The Epstein Ballroom!” Don’t tell the news that it’s called “The Epstein Ballroom” and please don’t repost this!!!!!

This is very good

All of this is gone. No approval. No hearings. Gone.

The president needs your help! He's collecting diarrhea for his plane. He has a plane that's 99% toilet with other people's diarrhea in it and he wears a little crown when he drives it around. Brave patriots please send your loose stool to your favorite diarrhea president for his diarrhea plane.

PROTESTING FOR DEMOCRACY PROTESTING FOR OUR COUNTRY PROTRSTING FOR OUR NEIGHBORS... IT IS ALL AN ACT OF LOVE. AND THAT IS WHAT SCARES MAGA WHEN THEIR NARRATIVE THAT WE HATE AMERICA IS PROVEN AS PLAINLY FALSE #NOKINGS

There are no kings in America, and I don’t intend to bend the knee to one.

DC J6: 1.500 arrests DC No Kings: zero Tell me again which side is violent?

Just a bunch of paid domestic terrorists in Portland, Maine.

If nothing else I find it obscene to turn governmental agencies that are meant to function as institutions in service of the entire American political community into overtly partisan propaganda mouthpieces. It’s just such a visceral degeneration of civic life it drives me insane.

I've never seen and felt as much love for America as we're seeing across the country today.

Democracy dies in silence. …when people are too afraid or don’t care enough to speak up. Not today. MILLIONS of Americans and allies of freedom and democracy, here and around the world, are taking to the streets. Showing their love of country and defiance of tyranny. It’s a beautiful sight.

Most Americans are genuinely good people, regardless of their political affiliation. So when the White House says horrible things to make you hate your neighbor, the White House IS THE PROBLEM.

America has no king, and the guy trying to make himself a king is setting himself and his minions up for a spectacular fall. This is our country, and we’re not gonna let them take it from us.

#NoKings Miami!

The inflatable frog has gone global. Today’s #NoKings #NoTyrants rallies in Japan, Australia, Spain, and Germany.

Are you one of the millions of people heading to a No Kings Day rally today? Be peaceful. Have fun. Build solidarity. Heather and I discuss some things to keep in mind as you hit the streets.
