upstaging the orange one - GO NEWSOM!

It’s unconscionable that congress and the President do nothing and continue to be paid, while the government workers who keep us safe and people who need food assistance are literally cut off completely.

BREAKING: Federal judge Immergut has permanently blocked Trump from deploying the National Guard in Portland, Oregon. WE WON!!

👏👏

Judge Permanently Blocks National Guard Deployments to Portland for ICE Protests With her temporary block expiring, Judge Karin Immergut said the Trump administration had failed to prove that protesters against the federal immigration crackdown were hampering President Trump’s policies.

And there it is….. Announcement is made that the U.S. House will be out of session AGAIN next week Two full months since their most recent vote

USDA must use the SNAP contingency fund to keep food assistance programs funded during the government shutdown as is required by law and has been done in every other government shutdown in modern history. sign.moveon.org/petitions/st...

If you were looking at a newspaper (or its website) this morning and didn't see this iconic photo, it was an intentional choice to pander.

Whoever made this, you nailed it.

The cost of living in America is way too high. And everyone knows it. (Except for Donald Trump and Republican sycophants in Congress).

Um, do federal prosecutors *really* want to take the position that it's not okay to receive something of value from … Qatar? I can think of 747 reasons why they shouldn't. 🤔

Look at his eyes. He is so frustrated that the attention is not 100% on him. Even in situations like this he cannot control his narcissism.

The administration captured in one picture.

Imagine a judge saying, “You have the funds to feed hungry Americans. This should not be happening,” and the President of the United States replying, “Nah.” Because that’s what’s happening, right before the holidays.

"This should never happen in America." 🔹 Rhode Island District Judge John McConnell #ONEV1 #Pinks 🌸 #Voices4Victory

Something to smile about. 😃

We, truly, are living in the stupidest times. Of all the words to describe Melania Trump, "patriot" is not one that comes quickly to mind.

If the history book need a single photo to summarize the Trump administration, this is that photo.

When I went to Congress, I wrongly considered Nancy Pelosi my political enemy. Over time, I developed immense respect for her, even when we disagreed. She, better than anyone, defended democracy against Trump in his 1st term. She’s an American giant. Well done Madame Speaker.

"He's down there with the Titanic." Donald Trump's rock bottom record low approval numbers are dragging all Republican candidates down with him.

I like my taxes to be used to feed hungry children, not murder innocent fishermen. Cruelty is the Republican Party's oxygen.

Democratic Rep. Yassamin Ansari was outside Mike Johnson's office today holding up a sign that read: "Mike Johnson is starving families and gutting health care to cover up the Epstein files. CHANGE MY MIND."

Remembering today the late German-born American film and theatre director and comedian #MikeNichols (6 November 1931 – 19 November 2014) born #OnThisDay in Berlin. One of 21 people to have won all four of the major American entertainment awards: Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, and Tony

"It’s likely that SNAP recipients are hungry as we sit here," McConnell says. He also says Trump and his allies have admitted to withholding SNAP benefits for "political reasons" rather than to preserve child nutrition programs, which the judge said was a pretext."

McCONNELL said Trump's Truth Social post was essentially an admission of his "intent to defy the court order when he said 'SNAP payments will be given only when the government opens.' As a result "people will go hungry, food pantries will be burdened and … suffering will occur."

Sandwich hurler - NOT guilty. Justice lives.

What an irresponsible waste of time, money, and available court time. Pam Bondi is yet one more incompetent hack is the Trump regime. www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...

Today, Speaker Emeritus Nancy Pelosi announced that she will not seek reelection and is retiring at the end of her term. From her time working with Harvey Milk in San Francisco to her tenure as the first female Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi is the definition of a champion for equality.

This is what a lame duck looks like. The entire country knows it, even the GOP. If they don’t separate themselves from him - they’ll go down on the Trumptanic. 👇

Rep. Chrissy Houlahan called out Speaker Mike Johnson for lying to the American people: He preaches “transparency” while running a shutdown circus. Her message was simple tell the truth or stop pretending you’re leading. The GOP’s moral compass is spinning—and she called it out live.

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

Very Well Said, Adelita…. Adelita Grijalva: "THANK YOU Mike Johnson! By obstructing my swearing-in, you highlighted how corrupt this administration is. People all over the nation wouldn’t have even known about me otherwise."

When you're a sociopath and get angry that someone else's medical emergency, just four feet away, drew focus from your gloating and you forget which lie you were on.

Sen. Rosen: "This is a Republican shutdown...You are in control of the White House, the House, and the Senate. If you went home to a food bank instead of going to Mar-A-Lago...while people are starving, you might see and hear your constituents. You are blind to the suffering."
