One of the unacknowledged advantages of this awful era is that it's revealing for all to see the putrid connections between great wealth and great power. The intentions of the oligarchs are fully exposed and more blatant than ever. But remember: We outnumber the oligarchs.

Wow!

Americans can never forget that Trump and his GOP cronies put all their energy into withholding SNAP and starving Americans. They have stopped at nothing to make their constituents go hungry during a shutdown they refuse to end. The GOP doesn't deserve any seats in our government. Vote them out.

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.

Reminder to all that Modern Animal (app based veterinary chain popping up all over the country) is funded by Peter Thiel. Please don't use that vet!

BREAKING: A federal judge in Oregon just issued a permanent injunction barring the Trump admin from deploying the National Guard to the streets of Portland.

This is how hard the regime is trying to starve people.

They finally abided by the court.

Other state's should take note. State's can do something about this.

This is how the GOP governs.

Excellent observation

Nuremburg trials is the moderate position

Brother Warnock lays it plain.

The worst bit I have seen about the reduced air traffic story was a quote by an official that air traffic controllers have reduced capacity because most of them are working second jobs so they can get by during the shutdown.

NEW: Judge Ellis will be issuing a preliminary injunction against federal agents in Chicago - a more permanent version of her earlier temporary restraining order.

LOL. Mike Johnson can't obstruct everything.

The establishment is not worried that Zohran Mamdani's policies will fail. It is worried that they will succeed and prove the entire system is based on lies.

A good point made in this video. He tells them the are going to end up in The Hauge. When this is over we need to make sure the US is a signatory to the ICC and find a way to make an exception to hand over all of these criminals.

BREAKING: A federal judge finds the Trump admin "did not comply" with his order to fund SNAP benefits. Judge John McConnell has verbally ordered the admin to *fully fund* SNAP benefits for the month of November — by tomorrow.

More good news!

Last year after the election, I reflected: "When we fight, we win—but sometimes the fight takes awhile." Last night, we saw Democratic victories across our nation. I am so proud of these enthusiastic, principled, inspirational leaders who will continue to fight for our nation, ideals, and progress.

Check this out. Someone finally reached "too cheap to meter" and it sure wasn't nuclear.

Glad to hear this SCOTUS tariff case is not going well for the orange menace.

I guess the plan to have Mike Johnson lie in shutdown press conferences every day for 3 weeks didn’t work out.

The lesson of history is that tyrants cannot be appeased. Appeasement only feeds their insatiable hunger for power. Tyrants prey on people who feel unsafe and vulnerable. But without mass submission, a tyrant is powerless. Remember this.

A federal judge permanently blocked Trump administration from withholding transportation funds over immigration enforcement cooperation, calling the conditions imposed on 20 states including Illinois "arbitrary and capricious."

Of course the risk of doing radical mid-decade gerrymandering for Rs in midterms always was that they weakened a lot of formerly safe Repub districts by moving R voters into Dem districts, which would backfire spectacularly if you have a blue wave scenario - making it a tsunami.

Mamdani: “We won because we insisted that no longer would politics be something that is done to us. Now, it is something that we do.”

Been waiting for this one all night. Knock me over with a feather.
