As a survivor of the Tulsa Race Massacre, Viola Ford Fletcher bravely shared her story so that we’d never forget this painful part of our history. Michelle and I are grateful for her lifelong work to advance civil rights, and send our love to her family.

This is who she was. Passionate in her beliefs. Fiercely loyal to her friends. Never afraid to let you know exactly where she stood. The best. Fun Fact: I remember arguing with her over which of us hated Piggy the most. I was sure I did. She disagreed. It remains unresolved...

"The Attorney General of the United States has set a new low for this committee," Whitehouse said. Shouldn't doing what Pam Bondi is accusing James Comey of doing be a scandal that would make her have to resign? In her case it's is easily proven that she lied to the committee.

A federal judge didn’t “steal” the Commander-in-Chief’s powers—she ruled that DoD exceeded the limits Congress set. That is the rule of law working as designed. What threatens the Republic isn’t judicial review, but officials who insist they’re above it.

We knew it wasn’t going to work.

If only Kash Patel cared about doing his job and protecting the United States the way he cares about “protecting his GF.” Instead, countries that share intel want nothing to do with us, while he spends millions in taxpayer money to impress a girl. Waste, fraud, abuse.

I just found this video that they put out with the Epstein survivors.

JFC... I would love any of these online keyboard warriors to try, just try, to say any of this shit to an educated woman's face in a public setting. They won't because they are fucking cowards. But hey, keep going online and spreading hate. It's really been working out for us as a gender. 😖

Khanna: "There should be no buildings named after people in this Epstein class. There should be no scholarships named after them. They shouldn't be enjoying perks of being affiliated w/ corporations or universities. Many of the survivors will tell you some of these people still are celebrated"

A HUGE win for James Comey in his criminal case. A federal judge orders the DOJ to turnover ALL OF THE GRAND JURY MATERIALS to Comey's defense team. About to drop a new episode walking through the details of this scathing order on my YouTube channel! storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

If Donald Trump wants to release the Epstein files, he could just release them, instead of green-lighting the House resolution. And it's not as if he cares whether he has statutory authority to do a lot of what he's been doing. But he needs a law for this?

Ah yes, the economic Golden Age of Trump where grandma goes without.

Admitting is the first step. Well done. #leopardsatemyface #Politics #News

Or a business, or just about anything else except being extremely corrupt or doing something illegal.

The first and last lines of Joni Ernst’s legacy as a human on earth will be that she was instrumental in the confirmation of the Sec of Defense most hostile to women serving in military, and she knew that when she voted for him.

@kristenwelker.bsky.social is not the only interviewer guilty of this, but since MTP is the only legacy media show I still watch, this is where I just saw it again, and it's where I feel most free to call it out. Dems get asked why they aren't opening the gov't and the GOP gets policy ?s. Why? 1/4

Speaker Johnson is officially keeping the House in recess again next week. This will be the eighth consecutive week the House has been out of session. The chamber hasn't met since Sept. 19. Adelita Grijalva, who was elected on Sept. 23, has not been sworn in.

Cities need law enforcement officers. Most polls show that even over policed populations want law enforcement in their community (sometimes more), just not officers that are more dangerous than helpful. But cops who flee in the face of accountability are the ones who need to go. This is a win.

It's really tiring not doing shit to reopen the government.

Emergency Press Conference: Update on the government shutdown and health care from Senator Gary Peters.

Tell me more about ‘Sleepy Joe.’

I need you all to know that my mother sent me this. 🤣 That is all.

If this evidence ever sees the light of day, I want prosecutors, judges, and juries to see it, but I have absolutely no interest in viewing any of it.

I’ve never seen an American elected official fight so hard to starve people.

Why are ICE agents being paid during the shutdown, but not air traffic controllers? 🤨

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 94th day out of the last 106. 12 days of work in 106 days. With full pay and benefits. The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown. It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

So the Epstein vote isn't the only reason Mike Johnson should fear Rep. Yassamin Ansari. More of this, please.

incredible photo that's definitely worth at least 1,000 words from Andrew Harnik of Getty

Every accusation is an admission.

Ouch 🚽

ICE and a bloated military budget that can't pass an audit. Even if you support the troops (I certainly do) or are for strong borders (whatever the fuck that means) it doesn't seem that very many people want bloated budgets for things that benefit only a few people.

There are verifiable stories of people impersonating officers, so if a dude in no uniform with no ID grabs you and tries to shove you in an unmarked car in front of your child, you have every right to fight like your life is on the line. To say this is "assaulting" an officer is a joke of a charge.

Wear it with pride 😜

What he said: 💯 🎯

My daughter is at an age where she can't yet go trick-or-treating on her own, at the point she doesn't want me "in costume" behind her.She said, "Dad, you can dress up as something that's like a human, and maybe adults can tell what it is, but not kids." @antodemico.bsky.social I think I nailed it.

The fact that Rand Paul, whom I will disagree with on the almost everything, I can 100% agree with on most of his criticisms of Trump tells you a lot about the Trump regime and the rest of the Republican party. In no way, shape, or form is he any less of a Republican. He's just pro-constitution.

I also think he is full of shit.. 💩 #shitfacejohnston

"What me hurry.... to bring the House into session, seat a duly elected member of the house, fund the government, and stop protecting a pedophile?"

Poverty breeds crime. Like, directly. If you think people losing healthcare, SNAP, housing, at all isn’t going to flip this country over you’re a fool. You will see a spike in crime. Criminology 101.

It’s hard to convey just how much Chicagoans are mobilizing against ICE. Don’t want to downplay the harm, or make it seem like a fair fight. But in neighborhoods across this city, ICE is getting chased by people blowing whistles and shouting. People are running TOWARD ICE to protect their neighbors.
