No Kings. October 18. Everywhere. Nonviolent mass mobilization is the way

I disagree with much of this @wsj.com editorial, but this is spot-on. www.wsj.com/opinion/dona...

Donald Trump is pursuing retribution the right way. by Ezra Klein

Real saying the quiet part loud here

…

This is real:

im sorry but if you are wrong about ai and “misspend a couple of hundred billion dollars” you are going to have to forfeit the rest of the money youre hoarding back to us

Jimmy Kimmel on his show last night called Trump’s escalator sleuths Magatha Christie. 😂

Irony died yesterday

Along with the utterly unwarranted violence against the woman, note the trauma of the girl who tries to come to her aid

And what is the response of Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries to Trump's fascist week? They begged to meet Trump to make a budget deal--only to have Trump embarrass them by cancelling the meeting after agreeing to it. We desperately need NEW LEADERS!

🧵🧵🧵 Two decades ago, writer Laurence Britt listed 14 defining characteristics of fascism. In this thread, I match them up with actions of Trump and his regime. Spoiler alert: MAGA is 14-for-14. 1. Powerful and continuing nationalism

"People are made differently. The human consciousness compensates for the feeling of guilt; if it didn’t, people would constantly be throwing themselves onto dry land like dolphins. "

People of DC: The ABC station in the nation's capital, Sinclair-owned WJLA, was afraid to run this segment tonight. Let them know what you think about this. With minimal online skills can find their contact info.

Stand with Jimmy Kimmel and push back on Sinclair’s propaganda machine.

And, there we go. 1 million by 1 am on the East Coast.

ProPublica identified 155 counties in the Deep South with private schools that opened as likely segregation academies. One in Amite County, Mississippi, has never — over nearly 30 years of surveys — reported enrolling more than one Black student. (Published Dec. 2024)

I love the premise of this show “Doc,” which debuted last year, where a doctor is in a car crash and suffers a brain injury that wipes out memories of the past 8 years. Everything before 2016 is crystal clear, but after … Can’t see why they’re calling it a tragedy.

This is how Disney can go from being the Villain’s sidekick to the hero of this story.

A really great piece by my favorite tech journalist:

Wow. That is deeply dishonest, Peter Baker, particularly without identifying how in the tank he is.

Absolutely critical for putting the events of the last 48 hours into context

@msnbc.com , you’re dead to me for sucking up to Republicans and their lionization of Kirk. They’re literally doing what they accused us of: exploiting his murder. In your wall to wall coverage today, you’re complicit in it, too.

New: Zelenskyy will press Donald Trump to impose sanctions on Russia when they meet next week in New York and urges allies to "stop wasting time". "Everyone is looking to the US," Ze told journalists in Kyiv, saying pressure should be applied to Slovakia & Hungary www.theguardian.com/world/2025/s...

“Send the interns” was a battlecry during the Bush 43 years - have college kids record the briefings and maybe challenge the podium lies but experienced investigative reporters stay away and work sources Any serious newsroom should do this with Hegseth’s Pentagon

In the oral argument in the immunity case, Trump's lawyer's answer to the question, "What would be the check on the President just using his officers to break the law?" was, "People will not follow illegal orders." We're about to find out whether that's true.

“The deification of a podcaster” This Charlie Kirk/ Starbucks nonsense is beyond. It’s happening all over. Good grief. Here’s some good background from @blockclubchi.bsky.social: bsky.app/profile/bloc...

Trump releases video of a 3rd boat blown up in international waters. He again claims it was a drug boat and the 3 killed were gang members. And again we’ll all just have to take his word for it. taskandpurpose.com/news/us-thir...

Should be impeached and removed from office for this alone

If MAGA is making the argument Kimmel deserves to be fired for saying something incorrect and thus violating FCC guidelines, well then, so be it. You also have to cancel Watters, Gutfeld, and Ingraham, who all said without evidence that Kirk's killer was the far left and incited a lot of hate.

Corporal Ivanov: private, have you hit your “amplifying divisions in the U.S.” quota for today? Private Propaganda: yes, sir. societal divisions are up 37% thanks to our #KimmelLied botnet. Ivanov: you fool! they’ve raised it to 42%!

Disney learned nothing from Andor.

I’m in.

not since the McCarthy era or the Red Scare has the government launched such a mammoth campaign of oppression and censorship. This un-American, anti-democratic crusade is fundamental at odds with our Constitutional system. As formidable as it may be, the response must be just as formidable.

SCOOP by @anthonycormier.bsky.social & Zach Mider Bessent once agreed to occupy 2 different houses as his “principal residence” at the same time, mortgage documents show — the same kind of contradictory pledges thatTrump has been using to try to oust Lisa Cook. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

I made this in jest because I’m finding it hard to believe that a text message exchange would sound like a Jane Austen novel written by a cop. Completely Believable Text Message Theater - sound up.

Laura Loomer has discovered that conspiracy theories have real-world consequences. All the leopards in the mosh pit at this point, eating each others' faces.

Fellow Dems, higher prices/inflation/tariffs are the most important basket of issues to voters and the place where Trump performs the worst. Opposing them simply must become central to everything we do. A memo to the family 👇 www.hopiumchronicles.com/p/some-refle...
