Shut it down. He’s the president. His party controls Congress and the Senate. Let’s see how this masterful play of making everything go to shit on his watch pans out. For the love of god, Democrats better stand fucking firm.

The president is posting AI-generated meme content of congressional Democrats 26 hours before a government shutdown.

Pritzker: "People of Illinois, we need your help. Get our your cell phones, record and narrate what you see. Put it on social media. Peacefully ask for badge numbers and identification. Speak up for your neighbors. We need to let the world know that this is happening and that we won't stand for it."

Blue cities should tear up the roads in front of ICE facilities and then start decades of community engagement and input sessions to rebuild them. Let's harness our core competencies.

why not opt-in? just ask permission first if this is truly a positive feature then surely copyright holders will be happy to participate and have their work included if asked just ask permission first

It is important to see this sort of straight talking, precisely because of the executive order last week that conflated criticism of the government with terrorism.

A victim of the shooting at the ICE facility is UNCONSCIOUS, in critical care, may not survive, his wife is about to give birth, and ICE IS KEEPING HIM SHACKLED TO HIS HOSPITAL BED: I just unlocked a new level of rage. www.npr.org/2025/09/27/n...

Wow, incredible. They are extraordinary cowards.

He wants to dictate what the press can say. What a university can teach. Whom a company can employ. And to whom the law shall apply. He who wants all this is not a president, But strives to be a dictator. And all who succumb are not citizens, But subjects.

Oregon’s Senator Ron Wyden is demanding the Treasury Department turn over the records of financial dealings between Jeffrey Epstein and Donald Trump, among others. He’s also authored legislation to force this. Anybody think this may have something to do with why Trump is now targeting Portland?

Well lookee here!

One of Trump’s own former attorneys….

These “officers” are running roughshod over the Constitution and the rights of all people. They are in effect the criminals.

Now armed federal agents are walking around the Bean and the Gold Coast. This is all peacocking, a show for no other purpose than intimidation. And they don't have the guts to even show their faces. blockclubchicago.org/2025/09/28/a...

I guess pointing out hypocrisy doesn’t matter anymore, but the same people who voted for DOGE and emptying the swamp and kicking out the fat cat elites, etc. are perfectly fine with a real estate developer using taxpayer money to slap gold on everything

BREAKING: Oregon & Portland just sued President Trump to block his order sending federal troops into the city. The plaintiffs call the deployment “patently unlawful” and say it violates the U.S. Constitution and the Posse Comitatus Act.

At this point, any Democrat who votes to keep this government open without extracting very serious concessions — RFK’s resignation, ICE rollback, Epstein Files release, etc — will absolutely face a primary challenger who will set fundraising records.

We have to stop dehumanizing ICE agents while they are doing their important job of dehumanizing us

Joe Biden had a lot more power at his disposal than he wielded. The next Democratic president can’t make that mistake. The GOP and the corporate interests it represents should be made to utterly rue the Trump presidency.

As the US Marshals Service prepared for Donald Trump’s expected pardon of January 6 defendants, officials went to unusual lengths to facilitate the defendants’ travel home from the DC jail, newly obtained records show.

Trump is ordering the military to use “full force” against an American city, while the Supreme Court declares him the Sun King and Congress hides under a pile of coats. The checks and balances only work when the institutions aren’t run by utter cowards and the complicit

It’s no coincidence Trump has ordered military to Portland shortly after the City of Portland’s press release stating it will issue a land use violation to the Portland ICE facility #DefundICE #Voices4Victory #ProudBlue www.portland.gov/mayor/keith-...

Hegseth fires general officers and JAGs, cracks down on dissenting views in military, orders killing civilians at sea without legal rationale, calls generals to Quantico to demand loyalty. Trump deploys troops to U.S. cities. "What are Trump and Hegseth up to? It's a mystery!"

begging democrats to fight right now like portland is as important as jimmy kimmel

Fleeing immoderately from suspicion of involvement, Musk crosses over to implying he knew enough of what was up on that island to “REFUSE” but told no one and did nothing to protect the victims.

The President of the United States claims to have authorized the military to use lethal force on US citizens, and there’s not a single Republican who has the balls to tell him that’s both illegal and morally wrong.

And if that doesn't get everyone to stop talking about the Epstein files, inflation, and bad job numbers, there's always the option of starting a war with Venezuela

War-ravaged Portland

Supreme Court rules 6-3 that congressional appropriations are optional: www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/24p...

The rules have changed. Mike Johnson wants to wait until the official results come in October 14th to swear in Grijalva.

Brilliant businessman accidentally gives employees 7-month paid vacation.

Swalwell: It's an awful day for what's supposed to be a free country. This is a mad king picking off each of his political enemies.

Trump gets humiliated at the UN, Kimmel returns, he drops further in the polls and just goes fucking crazy at the White House today. Insane new tariffs, Comey, war against his domestic opponents, shutting down the government. He is losing it, and it’s getting dangerous out there.

Odd, how we can’t afford to give Americans healthcare, but we can afford to drop $200,000,000,000 on Argentina with a moment’s notice.

NEW Quinnipiac poll of registered U.S. voters: • Half now say Israel is committing genocide in Gaza • Only 47% see backing Israel as a U.S. interest, down from 69% in 2023 • 60% oppose more military aid to Israel • 58% favor UN recognition of a Palestinian state www.haaretz.com/us-news/2025...

Americans are about to pay out the nose for more IKEA stuff - specifically kitchens and upholstered furniture.

Not even 20 minutes later and I guess we’re doing 50% tariffs on IKEA for some reason. He’s a man with a plan to make life more expensive and he can’t be stopped.

Listen, he is nuts on so many levels and everybody knows it including the entire GOP leadership and what is left of non cooked military brass and people just need to pressure them in every front to say so.

We cannot wait for the markets or the midterms.

Trump just signed a an EO that allows the full power or the federal government to go after extremist groups. Stephen Miller predictably went on a rant about Antifa, but not a *single* reporter asked if they’d be going after right wing extremists too. Shameful.

Discovery is going to be fantastic, though. We all saw this abuse of power coming. Multiple prosecutors (even Trump appointed ones) tried to stop the administration from making this mistake because there’s no case.

The regime moved to prosecute one of its political opponents today after forcing out a lawyer who would not agree to their demands

He talks about moving a World Cup game out of Chicago because it has high crime, which is interesting because there is no game slated for Chicago. But Dallas has a World Cup game, and Dallas has a higher violent crime rate than Chicago, and Dallas has a Republican mayor … oh, OK, I see it now.

Whether it’s Barack Obama wearing a tan suit in front of reporters or an ICE agent brutally attacking a mother in front of her children, both sides have subjected our most vulnerable citizens to disturbing images.
