Tomorrow's Coffee With Texas Paul. Hope you can join us in the live chat at 11 am Eastern.

I remember Speaker Johnson said he would always follow the Bible when making his decisions. If I remember correctly, one of those pesky Ten Commandments (number 9, actually) is: “Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor” www.biblegateway.com/passage/?sea...

The year is 2003. 17-year-old Stephen Miller is sitting in the back of a school bus talking about torture, as in “Torture is a celebration of human life and dignity." Miller looks directly into the camera and describes the torturing Iraqis in gruesome detail, as his peers laugh uncomfortably.

www.youtube.com/watch?v=qQPF... Just a tidbit of Ted Cruz. His ambition in life, “to be in a teen fuck film” and rule the world. Canada apologizes profusely.

A 10 day hearing began today in Texas to determine if the GOP's new rigged map will remain in place or be struck down for 2026. The best way to stay informed on what is happening is to subscribe to Democracy Docket, the media outlet I started in 2020, for times like these. hubs.ly/Q03jcjqP0

This is a bailout, no matter what he calls it.

DOJ has sued 8 states for refusing to turn over their full, unreacted voter files. My team has now filed motions to defend those states against this attack on federalism in 6 of those states: ME, MI, MN, NH, OR and PA. I suggest that tomorrow DOJ monitor the docket in the remaining two: CA and NY.

All blue states. What a surprise. I guess all we can do is vote out every single Republican candidate for every office in those states since none of them will speak up or do anything. And the Appropriations Chair Susan Collins.

So is today the day when we’re gonna find out if Mike Johnson is a closeted gay man? Razzledazzlemo on TikTok says that he’s passed on Mikey’s Grindr account info to an investigative journalist, just in case something happens to him. He’s hired a lawyer.

Never gets old.

@darren32359.bsky.social thank you my dear friend for sharing this. This is real facts not fake news!!! PLEASE REPOST THIS . THANK YOU ⚖️🇺🇸⚖️🇺🇸⚖️

ELON AND TRUMP HAVE STOLEN BILLIONS THEY HAVE ROBBED US ALL SUE RABID DRUGGED DREG WILDING NAZI MF ELON!!! ELON IS KILLING BLACK PEOPLE IN MEMPHIS TN STOP GLOBAL GENOCIDE STOP NAZI VANILLA ISIS ELON HAS NAZI PEDOPHILE DNA ELON IS SCUM WHERE ARE THE EPSTEIN RAPE TAPES??

What up America?? Does it bother you that we are not hearing about this? Proof we are weak asf.

Congrats to team Europe for winning the Ryder Cup. Historic and well deserved. Our fans were disgraceful. An embarrassment to the US team and the game of golf. No class, dignity or grace…just like their cult leader in the White House.

What has Yvette Cooper’s proscription of Palestine Action done to this country? Beyond absurd. It’s extreme authoritarianism. These police should be arresting rapists & crooks, not neglecting those duties to spend time arresting citizens standing against genocide. It undermines police and the law.

People, I hope everyone is planning to host or attend a NO KINGS event on Oct 18. Until then, speak out, be visible, bear witness, support independent journalist, get a yard sign, distribute know-your-rights cards, paint rocks, and get creative. Let your neighbors know they are NOT alone!!

Just fuck off with this. How about start the conversation by highlighting how much immigrants contribute to the UK - not least by propping up the NHS and social care system! Also - forced volunteering is not volunteering, it's unpaid labour.

"maximum pressure and pain" share.google/OcJ7pTBGN2Hy... Trump Doesn't Care If You Think He’s Corrupt share.google/JOPDydZVnpXU...

Escalator Sabotage #MusicSky #TurnItUp

Evil did not die. It only reinvented itself.

Mikie Sherrill has been violated. Republicans are pure scum! They want her harassed or killed because they know - she’s going to win!

🚨 This scene comes to us from Iowa. The man recording this atrocious attack on an innocent man makes it clear that he is a combat veteran, and explains that he is going to video their crimes and he is not to be touched: “I will knock you the fuck out.” 1/2

It’s likely that this happened to them, in which case, again, this should be much bigger news. We can’t just disappear thousands of people without notifying anyone www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

Within the legal community, every conceivable alarm bell is ringing. And all of them are too late. America has no meaningful federal law enforcement anymore. It has Trump personal lawyers and a Trump political machine that masquerades as rule of law. There *is* no DOJ or FBI now. Please share.

ILLINOIS!!! Show up and show out at the Broadview ICE facility tomorrow morning. Join us in peacefully protesting for our neighbors. The pressure is mounting — let’s get this inhumane facility shut down. 1930 Beach Street. 7-9 AM.

Before joining Trump’s legal orbit, Halligan followed a conventional legal career path. She went to Holy Family High School in Colorado before earning a degree in political science and broadcast journalism from Regis University in Denver—the same school Erika Kirk, Charlie Kirk’s wife, attended.

Since Lindsey Halligan personally indicted Comey she should personally try the case and not hand it off to someone else. She can show us how competent and qualified she is for this job in front of a jury.

Literally on this date two months ago I tweeted that the US would turn into a police state if the mad king and his cohort were not stopped. They were not stopped. I thought America would have about three months, but it turned out – again – that I was being too optimistic. 🧵

Other countries get it

Trump has illegally leaked Democratic candidate Mikie Sherrill's Social Security number, home address, and parents' address to her Republican opponent.

We can't keep going backwards in the country that's formally a leader in so many areas of medical research climate research etc. but apparently that's what Trump wants and Republicans don't have the spine to stop him

We all grabbed a screenshot of Trump’s post, and now it’s Exhibit A for selective prosecution. Trump lives for revenge, and he’s got his own personal AG carrying out the political hit.

Gavin Newsom: “Masked men. Jumping out of unmarked vehicles. People disappearing. No due process. No oversight. No accountability. People say I’m being hyperbolic. Bullshit. This is happening in America today.”

Commander Adama from Battlestar Galactica said it best: “There’s a reason you separate the military and the police. One fights the enemies of the state, the other serves and protects the people. When the military becomes both, then the enemies of the state tend to become the people.”

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.

www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news... Two of the victims have died. The victims are ICE detainees, the spokesperson said. No ICE officers were hurt in the shooting.

Is the Fourth Reich upon us? 🤔

Happy Taco Tuesday everyone. I've been added to so many awesome packs the past few days I had to make my own. Shout out to some of my fave content creators 💙 @politicsgirl.bsky.social 💙 @jollygoodginger.bsky.social 💙 @kendallyb.bsky.social go.bsky.app/65sqmSd

Fact-checkers working hard to keep up…

So many coverups. Release the Epstein files. Release the Homan tapes. Release the Venezuelan fishing boats evidence.
