Dems have a bill to fund SNAP and feed families through the shutdown. Yesterday, Senate R’s blocked it. It’s needless and cruel to use hungry children as bargaining chips. Previous shutdowns did not cut SNAP. Release the funds.

Republicans want to starve children to pressure Democrats into gutting healthcare. How do we know? Mike Johnson just admitted it.

By “you” I mean most MSM outlets, business leaders, voters who couldn’t be bothered to figure out the actual two sides, those looking for an excuse to vote against Harris, those performing principle by not voting, and everyone who voted for someone they know is vile and racist.

The Pentagon just admitted it. Per Rep. Sara Jacobs (via Annie Grayer of CNN), officials said they "do not need to positively identify individuals on the vessel to do the strikes." No proof. No trial. Just execution. It's murder.

Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg privately met with Attorney General Pam Bondi in March. The reported purpose of the meeting: How to talk to Trump about Meta. That would've come as Meta prepared for a trial in an ongoing FTC antitrust case against them. www.yahoo.com/news/article...

Is it any wonder why so many think the system is rigged?

Is social media dying? How much has Twitter changed as it became X? Which party now dominates the conversation? Using nationally representative ANES data from 2020 & 2024, I map how the U.S. social media landscape has transformed. Here are the key take-aways 🧵 arxiv.org/abs/2510.25417

“This shit is not new, it’s just more overt now." Almost everyone Rolling Stone spoke to for this story asked to use a pseudonym for fear of retribution. More: www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Trump's new nuclear testing thing is incredibly stupid; a great example of throwing away an American strategic advantage out of some combination of ignorance and a fixation on the shallowest appearance of toughness. @radiofreetom.bsky.social explains how:

Another illegal US maritime strike—again in the Pacific. Against a vessel allegedly operated by an unspecified "designated terrorist organization." Four reported fatalities—dubbed w/o ID or evidence "narco-terrorists." There's a word for premeditated killings outside of armed conflict.

This is ugly. But the reason this lady was protesting is even worse. ICE thugs detained two children and their father on their way to school. One child appears to have been beaten in detention, and no one seems to know where the 12-year-old girl is right now. The family had been seeking asylum.

Trump's secret police in action.

All of these ProFa Republicans are liars, thugs, and thieves.

See the woman who is documenting the "arrest" with her cell phone? We all should be prepared to do this for others whenever this happens. It may be the only thing that helps find and free Americans who are being wrongfully detained. And some day, it might be you or me who this happens to.

I believe that Trump is ready to bring the full weight of the government against Americans he perceives as enemies. Why? Because he has one goal: making sure he and his ilk never have to give up power. Watch my speech on President Trump's authoritarian playbook. youtu.be/fnUO0Plcpbo

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

At Menards hardware store in Cicero, IL It's a major hardware chain throughout the Midwest. Look at Trump's masked thugs shattering the truck windows and dragging a man off to an unmarked car. Menards told employees to delete any videos they took of the ICE raid—or they would be fired.

i don't think Platner, who went to a couple of the most expensive prep schools in the country, joined the military to go to college. i am an advocate for level-headed, fact based political discourse, but this is plainly untrue.

A US Drug Enforcement Administration agent said the DEA made “high-level arrests” of 171 Sinaloa Cartel members across New England in August. A Globe investigation found that many of the DEA’s targets were addicts, low-level dealers, shoplifters, and homeless people.

BREAKING: A Virginia judge has denied the GOP’s emergency bid to stop Democrats from advancing their redistricting plan. The case will continue, but for now, Virginia Democrats can keep pushing for a new map. Next hearing: Nov 5.

Excellent statement from one of Abugazelah's opponents in the IL-9 Dem primary.

oh just straight up gutter racism!

His grandfather was a millionaire architect, his father a very successful lawyer. Platner has NEVER needed help to "access higher education." He joined the military & became a Blackwater mercenary because he liked it. People would rather believe in fantasy than struggle with facts.

I have been charged in a federal indictment sought by the Department of Justice. This political prosecution is an attack on all of our First Amendment rights. I’m not backing down, and we’re going to win.

BREAKING: Six people, including congressional candidate Kat Abughazaleh, have been indicted on charges of "Assaulting, resisting, or impeding certain officers or employees" and "Conspiracy to impede or injure officer," in connection w ICE protests at the Broadview ICE facility outside Chicago.

Another quote that had it come from any other president would have been a weeks-long scandal. Instead, it's just Wednesday.
