SNAP benefits expire in one week.

ICE in Portland: “Dear God, they’re Jazzercising in formation! Light ‘em up!”

The campaign against “antifa” is about establishing a beachhead for further attacks on speech and assembly rights. We see that today in the effort to preemptively label No Kings protesters as “terrorists.”

This is so indefensibly insane: Speaker Johnson is refusing to seat Congresswoman-elect Adelita Grijalva because she'll be the 218th vote to release the Epstein files. Johnson swore in Rep Walkinshaw (VA) w/in 24 hours. Johnson is abandoning his job to instead protect a convicted child sex predator

The US is going to bailout Argentina with your tariff money. Let that sink in

Secretary Pete Hegseth's new facial hair grooming standards are discriminatory against troops who can't shave for religious reasons and Black and Brown people, who are more likely to have skin conditions that make shaving difficult and painful.

And he's the enemy...

The GOP SHUTDOWN of the federal government will: 🚨Skyrocket costs 🚨Screw up essential services 🚨Abandon disaster victims 🚨Make everyday life even WORSE for Americans This is America after nine months of Donald Trump.

Ronald Reagan–appointed U.S. District Judge William Young: “ICE goes masked for a single reason — to terrorize Americans into quiescence… To us, masks are associated with cowardly desperados and the despised Ku Klux Klan. In all our history we have never tolerated an armed, masked secret police.”

Google's YouTube will pay Trump $24.5m for suspending his account re J6. $22m of it will go to constructing the $200m WH ballroom. Meta will pay $25m over FB & IG Trump J6 suspensions. X paid $10m, which Trump called 'a big discount.'

FYI. If the Govt shuts down, everyone stays in town including the president but you’re just bored with nothing to do because it’s all messaging and negotiations. GREAT TIME TO RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES

the president of the united states wants to use the american military to kill american citizens on american soil. that's the whole story!

“To us, masks are associated with cowardly desperados and the despised Ku Klux Klan. In all our history we have never tolerated an armed masked secret police.” - Judge William Young, September 30, 2025

I’m still processing what happened this morning. Is it now the administration’s position that the U.S. military does not observe or adhere to the laws of war?

Perfect

THEY CLOSED PUBLIC POOLS RATHER THAN SWIM WITH BLACK PEOPLE YOU ARE DEALING WITH THE SAME GROUP OF PEOPLE AS THE FOLKS WHO DID THIS PLEASE WAKE THE FUCK UP

It’s official: AIPAC is trying to buy my election to keep me out of Congress. Apparently, I’m a “dangerous detractor”... by believing Palestinians (like myself and my family) deserve basic human rights. But we’re not going to let AIPAC win.

One person having the power to upend entire industries and economic sectors on a whim every day that puts companies out of business and workers out of jobs with no legislative input is an autocracy, regardless of whether that person initially acquired power through an election.

Since every Republican in Congress is repeating their false talking point over & over that “Democrats want to shut down the govt to give free healthcare to illegal aliens,” it would be helpful if some Democrats in Congress could address that argument with facts at some point.

Oregon AG Rayfield: I know for a fact, from talking to cities across Oregon, that if you pick up the phone and ask, “What could be helpful?” the answer would not be the United States military.

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.

CEO pay is up 1,094% since 1978, while worker pay is up just 26%. Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?

79. American citizen.

"Mona" was pruning citrus trees in CAs Central Valley. It was over 100° on this day. She sat down, putting an ice water bottle on her head to cool off a little. She is glad she's able to rest & cool off when she needs it, thanks to the CA heat laws the UFW fought for. #WeFeedYou

It’s a fact. Data from three decades of political violence reveals that right-wing terror attacks outnumber attacks from the left. And it’s not even close!

Trump just ordered the military into Portland, and he’s giving them the green light to use lethal force on American citizens. Authoritarianism is an abstract concept but Trump is making its impacts real and tangible. Let’s be real about it: This is the beginning of dictatorship in America.

Unfortunately we’re in an unprecedented era of rich people finding out that everyone hates them and making it a problem for all of us

Andy McCarthy: "The indictment almost fails as an indictment in that it doesn't give you notice of what Comey has actually done. But factually there's nothing there. So this smacks of wanting to put Comey through the process, which is what lawfare is."

Czech Republic President reposted this on Instagram 👇🏽

Because this administration thinks everyone believes the rules only matter when it helps “your side” (like they do), they are counting on Comey’s unpopularity to normalize this. Don’t let it. Whatever you think of him or his actions in the past, etc. this indictment is dangerous and an outrage.

I miss my 50-year streak of not knowing who the Secretary of Health is or anything about them.

The Department of Homeland Security has issued a burn book. www.dhs.gov/news/2025/09...

No matter what this meeting is about, Pete will always be a National Guardsman assigned to a Civil Affairs unit who got a bunch of crusader tattoos in his 40s because he wants you to think he's a cool, war-criming operator instead of an extremely online wife-beating loser

Lots of tech folks went. He was constantly at events sucking up to them www.politico.com/news/2025/09...

Braids are a great way to keep your hair out of your face, especially when ICE teargasses you. Also they don’t get caught in a respirator. 10/10 would recommend.

The irony is that Trumpworld is obsessed with energy.

Only an administration intent on committing war crimes in the present and future would stoop to calling Wounded Knee a "battle" rather than what it truly was: a massacre of over 250 Lakotas, mainly women, children, and the elderly. 1/

The wounded knee thing is really Trumpism distilled to its essence. It’s not enough to be able crush people who can’t fully defend themselves, it’s not enough to actually crush them, you also have to love and admire those who do the crushing otherwise the Trumpists’ delicate feelings are injured
