Murphy: "If we want to win the argument nationally on the economy, then we've got to break our addiction to incremental economic change. And we've got to talk about big, bold ideas that reorder power in this country."

Today, I convened a group of former military generals and veterans to hear perspectives on deploying troops in American cities. Their commitment is to our nation. That’s why they’re speaking out against what the President's doing as uncalled-for, unprecedented, and un-American.

Homan: "If the hateful rhetoric continues, there will be bloodshed. People are going to die ... there is going to be more bloodshed unless this hateful rhetoric stops."

Did President Putin say anything about *your* involvement with children, dear?

Definitely not America First.

Arizona Attorney General threatens to sue Speaker Johnson over Grijalva swearing-in www.msnbc.com/the-last-wor...

Colorado is scrambling to process 900+ unemployment claims from federal workers during the government shutdown and the food pantry at Buckley Space Force Base has seen demand double

ICYMI — PELOSI: “Shut up. I did not refuse the National Guard. The President didn’t send it. Why are you coming here with Republican talking points as if you’re a serious journalist?” (The unserious questioner is Alison Steinberg, who works for Mike Lindell — the my pillow guy)

Donald Trump and JD Vance can find money to launch missiles over the I-5 during a government shutdown, but not a dime for Americans’ health care.

Two class-action lawsuits accuse Bank of America and Bank of New York of maintaining relationships with Jeffrey Epstein and failing to report suspicious activities until after his death. The suits allege his trafficking operation wouldn’t have existed without the special treatment provided to him.

😂

Sanders: Saturday, millions of people are going to come out on a No Kings day. Speaker Johnson said this is a hate America rally because people are coming out expressing their concerns.. It’s not a hate America rally, it's a love America rally.

There’s a common feeling across the U.S. right now, a sense of helplessness. Many people want to do more but feel like they can’t. Remember: every action you take pushes the resistance forward.

Medicare payment to doctors are paused due to the shutdown.

Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Senator Bernie Sanders are doing a Town Hall on CNN this Wednesday, October 15, 2025, at 9:00 PM (Eastern Time)

There’s literally no woman in this world gives a fuck what Kid Rock has to say about how women look. Bruh…. 😂😂

Ballot mailed! And why aren’t more blue states doing the same?

I am sounding the alarm that the GOP is engaged in an all out attack voting rights and free and fair elections. Voter suppression, gerrymandering, and troops in blue cities are just some of the ways they are using to try to rig the rules to keep power in 2026 and beyond. Pay attention and act!

Calling for gas chambers. Expressing love for Hitler. Endorsing rape. Using racist slurs. I'm demanding Rep. James Comer open a House Oversight Committee investigation into these shocking, deeply offensive messages that were exchanged by Young Republican leaders from across the country.

open.substack.com/pub/aaronpar... Well, of course he did. And, ugh.

Maybe it's time for the pathetic and cowardly Democratic Leadership to FINALLY ENDORSE ZOHRAN MAMDANI?

Missouri Secretary of State Erects New Hurdle for ‘People’s Veto’ of GOP Gerrymander www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Take note of this too: lost in the shuffle of the daily chaos of the regime, the NSPM-7 was signed quietly in the oval. It basically reclassifies dissent as "terrorism". THIS is a problem.

This…………..this is just Republicans cheating Changing the rules in their favor to rig elections “A Government of the People, by the people, for the People.” - Abraham Lincoln Gettysburg Address 1863 @marcelias.bsky.social @democracydocket.com @eliaslawgroup.bsky.social @democracyforward.org

When leadership hides, the reason is no good Supreme Court reverses lower court rulings while hiding behind the shadow docket Congressional Rs hide from press and negotiations, hide on vacation, then hide from constituents The administration hides their intentions Trump hides from accountability

Jeffries: "The effort to mischaracterize the rallies that are gonna take place all across the country is part of the continued right-wing disinformation machine that is failing to persuade the American people."

HOT! Hot! An old friend of mine has a wife that works in intelligence and he is very well connected. I send him the video below. He texted this response. They are now threatening everybody.

What the fuck are we doing?

Republicans are grooming a young generation to grow up to become degenerate psychopaths who indulge in racism, cruelty and anti semitism for fun. Look at what they made you give.

Democrats want to play it safe in Maine’s white-hot Senate race. That’s a mistake. An absurd amount of energy is spent trying to avoid primaries, when, in fact, Democrats should want more of them.

‼️ this was a striking moment, to me Louisiana was basically like 'here come these Black people always asking for more' and Justice Jackson was like, 'that's not what the fuck they're asking for, they're saying: stop discriminating against us'

Good Morning.

WTF

Any one of us could be in the next apartment building that ICE raids in the middle of the night. Any one of us could be on the next boat that Trump bombs on a whim. Any one of us could be detained for hours despite being a U.S. citizen. Authoritarianism hurts all of us.

Speaker Mike Johnson and Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries will debate Wednesday on C-SPAN. The yet-to-be-scheduled showdown will take place on “Ceasefire,” hosted by our Dasha Burns.

[email protected]l on Trump saying he should "beg for help": "Well, I would beg him to remove ICE, to get Kristi Noem the hell out of our state." Pritzker joins @timmiller.bsky.social in the latest Bulwark Podcast:

A federal judge on Wednesday said at the beginning of a court hearing that she will likely block the Trump administration from laying off thousands of federal workers amid a partial government shutdown.

Make your plans for #NoKings. This Saturday, October 18th. Free speech is action. Protestors believe that action has meaning. Protestors are exercising the rights enshrined in the Constitution. For me, protest is about love of country. I'll be there. Please join in. www.nokings.org

Public health should never be politicized.   In the wake of the federal government abandoning science for conspiracy theories, it's up to governors to step up.   Proud to join my colleagues in the Governors Public Health Alliance to keep communities safe and put our people first.

to me it just proves Clearance Thomas thinks he is white not a black man at all.

This Supreme Court case in Louisiana is about one thing, and one thing only: reinstituting Jim Crow by way of ensuring that Black Americans are taxed without receiving representation in Congress. Everything else is noise and bluster. This stolen Supreme Court is going to send us back to the 1860s.

👇NAMI is maintaining a list government health services impacted by the shutdown. The NAMI HelpLine is available M-F, 10 a.m. – 10 p.m. ET. Call 800-950-6264, text “NAMI” to 62640, or email [email protected]. If you are in a crisis, call or text 988 or chat online at 988Lifeline.org.

The most powerful force in American politics today is anti-establishment rage at a system that’s rigged against most people. Democrats should ignore the carping of corporate-backed Wall Street Democrats and embrace Zohran Mamdani and other young progressives as the future of the party.

There's always been a fight over the true story of America. I believe deeply in the story that says we’re all created equal, and that if we can treat each other with decency and respect, all of us will be better off. I talk about this and more on the final episode of WTF with Marc Maron. Watch now:
