Independent C-SPAN caller to Rep. Mark Alford: "You're taking credit for $50b that you just gave to the hospital industry. That's after you took away $150b. You don't take credit for just giving back a little bit of money after taking away so much. So quit lying. It just makes you look horrible."

Me to @chrislhayes.bsky.social on the Comey and James and (probably imminent) Bolton prosecutions "It doesn’t matter what your politics are. If you say he’s stupid, which he is, if you say he is wrong, which he is, if you say he’s a criminal or sleezy, which he is ... then you’re his enemy.”

Did Farage ever sue the Mail on Sunday? This threat was issued in June 2025, but I can find no further reference to events after that.

Children that were kidnapped by invading Russian barbarians, not displaced.

It does, but Hegseth is claiming he misspoke. He issued a clarification that it will just be a joint training base (similar to how we do with Singapore and NATO nations) that’s fully under US control. Not sure why he announced it as a literal Qatari air base, other than he’s a complete dunce.

Trump is going to continue to do everything in his power to try to incite violence somewhere. If Portland and Chicago don’t work, he’ll probably go to New York. He’s looking for a reason to invoke the Insurrection Act.

To be completely fair to him, he’s drunk - hard to be a good leader when you’re sloshed. It’s even harder to be a good leader when you have absolutely no leadership qualities to speak of… so he’s double fucked. And yes, nobody should sign that.

Amazing what happens when you give the guy a plane

I don’t know who needs to hear this but the CDC is being eviscerated right now. America is not going to have any kind of outbreak response capacity after tonight. Americans’ health data is no longer secure. Say goodbye to federal public health in any capacity. It’s a disaster. We won’t recover.

Three cheers for MIT. When the White House tried to buy obedience with funding strings...MIT said, “Hell No!” Merit over mandates. Freedom over control. Finally...an institution with the guts to tell power where to shove its politics.

The campaign against “antifa” is about establishing a beachhead for further attacks on speech and assembly rights. We see that today in the effort to preemptively label No Kings protesters as “terrorists.”

Ever since I finished Question Time, Reform have massively been on the attack. Including a rant from Richard Tice entirely designed to distract from Reform and Russia. Everyone should know about Nathan Gill, the bribes from Russia and the link to Reform.

The Trump administration 'does science' like the Salem witch hunters 'did science'..

I had no idea who Rep. Salud Carbajal was until I saw this video. after looking him up, all I can say is…he’s one of us

We need something like a “Fascistpedia” to keep track of those who collaborated with the regime. Later, they'll be scurrying to hide their cowardice and moral rot. A permanent record will guarantee enduring shame. Let’s give them their own museum.

Standing up to fascism used to be a patriotic thing. Now it’s being framed as a “Hate America” thing. It’s not America we hate. It’s an authoritarian government. Hence, #NoKings events. Oct 18 is a day of peaceful protest against dictatorship.

Trump: 'Vaccines for me but not not for thee..'

Standing up to fascism is always the right choice. Rejecting censorship is always the right choice. Fighting for marginalized and vulnerable communities is always the right choice. A Wyoming librarian refused to purge books with LGBTQ+ content and was fired for it. She won a $700,000 settlement

Good to blame Farage for the dull-arsed, ruinous, tedious failure of Brexit. Not that good to keep punishing us for that failure, rather than looking to swiftly boost our prosperity by asking to rejoin the Single Market and Customs Union. But yes. It’s a start. www.thetimes.com/article/8875...

Michael Wolff: I've seen the pictures of Trump with Epstein's girls. Here's what's in them.

*Cries in American* 😭

I knew Fox News was theater. I just didn't realize it was a repertory theater that recycles actors for different roles. You'd think a company that had to pay $787,000,000 for deceiving its viewers would be a little more careful about blatantly continuing the practice.

Remember all of the ghouls who denied this was happening and did everything they could to make the problem worse from JK Rowling to Wes Streeting. The NHS who did a stitch up report to hide the growing number of suicides from trans youth on the waitlists. They should never be forgiven.

This is that "plenary" authority Stephen Miller was referring to in the now edited CNN interview. Arguing that the president's deployment of troops is unreviewable by the courts is arguing that his power is plenary.

In a democracy based on freedom and the rule of law, we don’t jail public officials—or anyone—because of policy disagreements. We need everyone to repudiate this nonsense because a president cannot act as a prosecutor, judge, jury and dictator.

This is NOT making Chicago safer. And this must NOT be what America is.👇

Johnson and Lauer are stalling. If Grijalva isn’t sworn in, it gives them time to pressure one of the 4 Republicans who signed the discharge petition to flip. The reason they’re working this hard to shield the Epstein files is because Trump’s name is all over them. RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES

How to negotiate with Putin: First, make sure he knows he can't win From @radek-sikorski.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2025/10/09/o...

We look back on people & organizations that stayed “neutral” or “above politics” under fascism as key collaborators in helping the regime to cause so much suffering to so many.

I sometimes worry I exaggerate the collective madness of our media but the people who cheered Brexit, Boris Johnson & Liz Truss's mini-budget are now applauding Kemi Badenoch's speech. 'Parallell universe' doesn't come close. I suppose her not falling over is a win of sorts for them at the moment.

Organisation? Antifa? Anti fascism? A idea. An ideology of opposing fascism with no membership, no leadership, no boards of directors, no voters or electors?! This this pure fascism. Gaslighting the nation.

“Senior military leaders should have stepped in to prevent Trump from turning addresses at Fort Bragg and Norfolk into political rallies; the silence of the Army and Navy secretaries, the Joint Chiefs of Staff, and some top generals and admirals is appalling…” www.theatlantic.com/newsletters/...

More water bills rises announced today, on top of those already planned. Privatisation without competition, arguably the worst of both worlds

Its true.

What Governor Pritzker is doing is right for his state, but it is vital for the Republic.

Remember this post? The Wall Street Journal just confirmed it was meant to be a DM to Pam Bondi. www.yahoo.com/news/article...

GOV. PRITZKER: “This is a convicted felon threatening to jail me? He’s an unhinged, insecure wannabe dictator. Come and get me.”

Most of Dem Senators did not attack Bondi yesterday as they should have. Among other things they should have said, "You're lying again, Ms. Bondi" and "That's a bald-faced lie, Ms. Bondi." The rapid rise of authoritarianism is no place for etiquette.

🚨 A vital new report 🚨 Clear evidence of how the UK Govt has been CAPTURED by O&G interests Time for MPs to challenge this in Parliament @labourlewis.bsky.social @mpwatch.bsky.social @zackpolanski.bsky.social @adrianramsay.bsky.social @dalevince.com @fionaharvey.bsky.social

Keep talking about this because people still don’t know how bad this is.
