Durbin: "What has taken place since January 20, 2025, would make even President Nixon recoil. This is your legacy, AG Bondi."

These people are evil. Never stop saying so. Don’t be intimidated into shutting up.

I hope John Fetterman watched the Pam Bondi hearing today and felt good about his vote to confirm her.

They’re really excelling at selecting woefully underqualified individuals. The Justice Department has appointed retired Marine Corps Colonel Daren K. Margolin as the new head of its immigration court system.

Herschel Walker has been confirmed as the U.S. Bahamas Ambassador. It’s been reported that just as soon as Herschel learns to to tie his own shoes without help, he will begin a program teaching young people to tie theirs.

Here’s video of the incident

Um, ICE just coldly shot an unarmed PRIEST in the head w a pepper ball when he (and everyone around him) clearly posed no threat. For the crime of … complaining about government policy. Core 1A speech. With cameras rolling, they’re sniping priests for sport.

Grijalva: The frustration for me is that it seems as if Speaker Johnson is not willing to swear me in because our politics are a little different, or because I’m going to be the 218th signer—he can just continue to drag this along with no end in sight. That is not a foundation of our democracy.

This morning, Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson signed an executive order establishing “ICE-free zones.” “That means that city property and unwilling private businesses will no longer serve as grounds for these raids,” Johnson said to applause.

ABOLISH ICE ABOLISH ICE ABOLISH ICE ABOLISH HOMELAND SECURITY ABOLISH HOMELAND SECURITY ABOLISH HOMELAND SECURITY

Love this man. #Hero #Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson:

This is not going to end well. Sooner or later an American citizen is going to get killed.

Urgent: ICE is Lying to the American Public open.substack.com/pub/aaronpar...

By all means, indict Jack Smith on bullshit allegations and give him the trial that SCOTUS denied him. Poke the bear, Donnie. See what happens.

Pritzker is right. They want to normalize troops in cities so they can steal every election just like Putin does.

ICE will reportedly hire contractors to surveil social media platforms 24/7 to target people for deportations. The information would then be funneled into an existing ICE database built by Palantir (founded by Trump ally Peter Thiel). "The party of small government,” folks.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

Sen. Ruben Gallego says the impacts of the shutdown pale in comparison to the calamity that would ensue if the Obamacare subsidies expire: “If we don’t get ACA tax credit extensions, over 100,000 Arizonans are going to double their premiums on their health insurance. That’s painful and permanent.”

Stephen Miller just said the quiet part out loud claiming that Trump has plenary authority when it comes to deploying troops. (Plenary means full authority.) After making the statement, he froze completely, like a deer in headlights. The video is worth watching.

Sen. PADILLA: This Justice Department fired a 15-year career prosecutor who put away sex traffickers and transnational terrorists. She was marched out of her office. Why? Because she had the audacity to remind Border Patrol that it should follow court orders.

"My mind always goes back to Loretta Lynch getting on the plane with Bill Clinton, who wasn't even president at the time, and this becoming the most world-shattering scandal." Bondi has dinner with Trump the night before the Comey indictment? Eh. @samsteindc.bsky.social and @eggerdc.bsky.social:

"Look, the President clearly has some kind of dementia" should be how Democrats begin every single comment to reporters these days.

Remember when we had air traffic controllers?

Think about this: at nearly the same time, Pam Bondi was refusing to answer whether the FBI had images of Trump and young girls obtained from Jeffrey Epstein’s safe, and Mike Johnson was refusing to answer when he would swear in Adelita Grijalva, who would be the 218th vote for the Epstein petition.

WATCH: Did the FBI find those photographs? 😶 #pambondi #donaldtrump #epstein

Phang: How are these Epstein victims supposed to feel about closure when you see Blanche meeting with Maxwell and then giving her a minimum-security camp move? And now, conversations allegedly that Trump is going to have with the DOJ about pardoning Ghislaine Maxwell. It is an abomination

AG Bondi, here’s that correction you requested.

BEST BIG CITY IN THE US 9 YEARS IN A ROW. While critics try to paint Chicago as something to fear, the rest of the world knows the truth — this is the best big city in America.

Someone should start asking why we’re hearing and seeing Stephen Miller so much all of a sudden.

You can’t fix stupid and this man is an idiot!

Leavitt: “You guys are framing this like the president wants to do the exact thing he says he wants to do.”

A staggering sum of money raised by Roy Cooper in #NCSen. He’ll need every penny of it to flip this seat, but I am confident he will do so…and his place at the top of the ticket might yield a few down-ballot surprises in the process. www.politico.com/news/2025/10...

This is the Epstein files shutdown.

“.. The referrals did not come from the OIG,” one of these people said, using shorthand for the office of the inspector general. “It took people there by surprise.” @reuters.com www.reuters.com/world/us/tru...

I forget-- who controls the White House, Senate, and House?

I fear if things don’t change right now, this image is going to come back to haunt us

This strikes me as pretty bad

Because They Gave Their Souls Willingly To The Chumpster.......

In fairness, Donald *has* transformed the Oval Office into the lobby of a Caesars Palace in Las Vegas.

Mike Johnson says he'll swear in @adelitaforcongress.bsky.social as soon as she wants. Okay, so how about today?

Here are the 10 states that will see the highest premium increases for families that lose tax credits if Republicans refuse to act. West Virginia 387% Wyoming 382% Alaska 346% Tennessee 320% Mississippi 314% Texas 289% South Carolina 285% Alabama 284% South Dakota 235% North Dakota 234%

Durbin: "What's happening in Illinois is outrageous. To think they're going to federalize the Texas National Guard and send them into my state is not only necessary, it's almost criminal."

The complete and total bullshit about this is that it should have been the FIRST question asked of Johnson. It is a disgrace that he was not asked about this before he ended his press conference. Unbelievable that he continues to get away with this. bsky.app/profile/atru...

Thanks to Trump’s tariffs on China, U.S. soybean farmers have lost their biggest customer and are grappling with higher prices for farming equipment. Now, Trump has said he will bail out farmers — supposedly with the tariff revenue that caused the crisis to begin with. Hello?

“.. there is the question of how the bond market will react to tariff revenue being redirected away from lowering the deficit.” @barrons.com www.barrons.com/articles/tru...
