Disgusted with Republicans for putting Americans through this. Their job is to come to the table and discuss, compromise…they have one of the biggest transfer of wealth historically in their bill. Republicans reverse the further deprivation of Americans’ way of living by extending the subsidies.

That day has arrived. The paycheck workers receive today will be several hundred dollars lighter than usual, and it will be the last one they receive until a fractured Congress agrees on a spending package for the current fiscal year. https://cnn.it/3KJ8b40

Thanks, Congress.

SCARBOROUGH: The Nebraska Rural Health Association says at least 6 rural hospitals would have to close bc of the big beautiful bill FLOOD: Here's the deal: Some hospitals that are rural hospitals are going to eventually have to transition from being acute bed hospitals into being an ER model

Opinion from Mark McCormick: Inequality in Kansas and the U.S. threatens to swamp us all. We must look out for one another. #ksleg

The Trump administration said Americans would fill farm jobs vacated by undocumented workers. That's not happening, the Department of Labor now admits.

Republicans Are Trying To Make Government Efforts To Help Poor People Afford Broadband Illegal "Right wing activism organizations posing as consumer rights groups are trying to make it illegal for the federal government to try and help poor, rural Americans afford broadband," is a sentence I just…

Former FBI Director James Comey pleaded not guilty Oct. 8 to charges that he lied to Congress and obstructed a congressional proceeding in 2020.

As Donald Trump sat through a roundtable on "Antifa" that he called for, he was caught falling asleep as his associates talked about supposed criminal activities.

In a damning review, the Parliamentary Budget Office has said Budget 2026 will lead to average income losses across all income groups. http://jrnl.ie/6839245t

Canada vs. America

Trump is threatening to withhold back pay for federal workers furloughed during the shutdown — which goes against a law he signed in 2019, by the way. This should come as no surprise: Trump and his businesses have been accused of stiffing hundreds of their own workers out of pay over the years.

@sarahlongwell25.bsky.social and I start with this clip of me from 2024 on Jimmy Kimmel Live and we talk about how Trump told us for years what he was going to do to the country now.

Kavanaugh search and seizures

1,000+ people currently imprisoned in Louisiana were convicted by split juries — ruled unconstitutional in 2020. Yet the state Supreme Court has declined to grant new trials, and lawmakers have repeatedly denied a reexamination of their cases. With @veritenews.org

i think it is cool that a government run by fanatical bigots is on track to plunge the economy into a mountain and cause a food crisis

I happen to like this idea!

Kristi Noem confronts enemy combatants in the Portland war zone today.

'If this country carries on the way it's going - I will be gone.' In light of Robert Jenrick complaining about not seeing 'another white face' in a Birmingham neighbourhood, caller Simon fears for his mixed-race daughter's safety.

“If capitalism has failed, and socialism has failed, and the only remaining option is some improved version of the drab ‘mixed economy’ that currently exists, then we are living in a perilous ideological vacuum.”

After layoffs, it's unclear how many people are policing civil rights violations inside the Department of Homeland Security, even as the Trump administration ramps up ICE detention.

Via @annabjournalist.bsky.social: Experts say health care worker shortages and actual or potential federal policy changes, including higher tariffs and the possible loss of enhanced Affordable Care Act subsidies, are driving costs up.

“If a foreign adversary snuck into our Federal budget and cut science research and education the way we're cutting it ourselves — strategically undermining America's long-term health, wealth, and security — we would likely consider it an act of war." - Neil deGrasse Tyson

Ford CEO on tariffs: “I mean, it's frustrating 'cause we're the most American auto company, and we export the most, and yet, we have this $2 billion headwind, which prevents me from investing even more in the US.” finance.yahoo.com/news/ford-ce...

What’s Trump on the Reich-ter scale?

Just an FYI: We’re not facing a “government shutdown.” This is a Trump-MAGA Republican shutdown. Call it what it is.

The “America has always been fascist” line of thinking is not only wrong on the merits, it is exactly what Stephen Miller wants you to think

Precisely.

😂🤣😂🤣

Chef’s kiss.

Sad, but true.

Jessica: The guy who drove up to the Mormon church… was a Trump supporter. He had a Trump-Vance flag in his backyard… When the shoe is on the other foot and you can't demonize the left for this one, they say nothing.

America: This has been your F.A.F.O. Moment. Think you can finally see the err of your stupidity and racism?? Those who voted for the Orange 34 x convicted felon have no one to blame but yourselves.

REMEMBER WHEN OUR WORTHLESS PRESS TRASHED KAMALA AND SANEWASHED DONNY'S FASCISM, AND NOW HE'S PRESIDENT? AND OH LOOK — NOW HE'S SENDING THE MILITARY TO WAR AGAINST AMERICA. THANKS, MEDIA! MANY ARE SAYING THANK YOU JEFF TIEDRICH (ME!) FOR WRITING THE GREATEST POST EVER! READ IT HERE: bit.ly/42hqdQG

Congrats to team Europe for winning the Ryder Cup. Historic and well deserved. Our fans were disgraceful. An embarrassment to the US team and the game of golf. No class, dignity or grace…just like their cult leader in the White House.

I mean yes this is funny, but the fact that these unconstitutional stormtroopers are so directionless that they literally stand around waiting for random nonwhite delivery guys to bike past them is just pathetic. No mandate, no mission, no clue. Just racism.

They all are.

Wounded Knee is a dark stain upon our nation’s history. We must remember it for what it truly was, not for what white nationalists would have it be.

"Ultimately, it doesn’t really matter what the indictment says, because Halligan was going to indict Comey no matter what. That’s literally why she’s in the job — to bring the sort of sham charges that the previous US attorney, Eric Siebert, would not."

A message for the 38 percent Happy Friday. There are 403 days until the midterm elections. More tariff troubles, a war criminal honors war crimes and Trump comes for Comey.

It works fine when you’re below the weight limit.

800 detainees are missing after being held in Alligator Alcatraz in July, showing no record of their location in ICE’s database. Other detainees have been mistakenly deported or sent to detention centers thousands of miles away. The cruelty is the point.

“Trump has a shrewd instinct for survival. He must sense that if he does not act now to prevent free and fair elections in 2026, he will lose much of his power—and all of his impunity” @davidfrum.bsky.social www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...
