ICE can't find people to fill its ranks as a direct result of the pressure we are putting on them. Report ICE, protest ICE, refuse to back down and they will crumble

Poor people in our society can't afford to make good financial decisions. Lack of social safety nets mean they pay for childcare. Working 2 jobs means they eat fast food or prepared food. No money for a new car means old cars that always need repair. Poor Americans can't buy "good boots"

The Worcester District and Superior Courts closed during the morning of Monday, Oct. 6, after a man died from a fall through the atrium to the first floor.

​I call on Governor Abbott to immediately withdraw any support for this decision and refuse to coordinate. There is no reason a President should send military troops into a sovereign state without their knowledge, consent, or cooperation.

This evening, President Trump is ordering 400 members of the Texas National Guard for deployments to Illinois, Oregon, and other locations within the United States. No officials from the federal government called me directly to discuss or coordinate.

The private prison facility in Plymouth, Massachusetts, is the only location in the state still detaining immigrants for ICE. Reports from inside say conditions have been made as bad as possible so people don't fight their deportation. #ICEscream www.facebook.com/share/r/1BBY...

Republicans are cowards. Cowardice lies at the heart of all of their policies and motivations. They are exclusively motivated by fear. They've destroyed the entire country because they're afraid of everything. Boston, by the way, one of the safest cities in America scholars.unh.edu/cgi/viewcont...

These are the crimes that cost our community every day. Mention of DEI costs Worcester nonprofit $2 million in federal funding MassEdCo provides assistance for college applicants and until recently had staff working inside Worcester's high schools. www.telegram.com/story/news/e...

Russ Vought and Trump may want us to think that the shutdown gives them the authority to resurrect DOGE-like cuts and go on a rampage, but the reality is, they were going to go on this rampage either way. From @ddayen.bsky.social: trib.al/EOAnpJE

A bus of Bronx middle schoolers pulled up to the Capitol this morning for a long-planned field trip just a few hours after the government shut down. All Capitol tours were cancelled as the guides can’t work in shutdown. So I escorted them in myself and gave them a personal tour. They were great!

Today marks the 7th anniversary of Jamal Khashoggi’s murder.

Agreed. Thanks James: “The survival of truth. The survival of democracy. The survival of a nation that values freedom over fear, justice over power, and people over profit. The survival of the free peoples of the world over the united and global efforts of dictators, fascists, and kleptocrats.”

It's almost like there aren't any Republican policies that work. But that can't be true, because our President says the Democrats are the problem. Super weird www.npr.org/sections/sho...

This regime thinks they can arrest whomever they want. But guess what? If we don't stand up and stop them, they're 100% correct

A great victory for the people of Worcester. Most of our city councilors have been pressured to do what's best for the people, not this fascist president.

PRITZKER: "It appears that Donald Trump not only has dementia set in,but he is copying tactics of Vladimir Putin by sending troops into cities; there's something genuinely wrong with this man and the 25th Amendment ought to be invoked." Gee, I sure hope something comes of this!. .

Our timeline: Trump posted an AI video of himself promising every American will have access to a miraculous cure (that figures in a conspiracy theory) called a "medbed," while in reality Trump and his people are shutting down the government rather than enable access to real healthcare for Americans.

It's not like Donald Trump just had "a bad night" that happened to be televised. He's like this every single day and it's ALWAYS being televised. Nobody is digging into it though. Weird. I was under the impression there is a decent market for books on this subject. bsky.app/profile/crai...

Buckle up -- the bad news is going to come fast and furious this week www.thecasualanalyst.com/blog-1/category/analysis/k00z9pxl5ow00z87rillkg82pwp6o8

Let's reframe: There's a portion of America that would support Trump no matter what. Inflation could be 20%, unemployment could be 20%, wouldn't matter. But out of the rest, reasonable republicans, independents & Democrats, he's lost virtually all of them.

Videos like this are going underreported, but Federal security forces are breaking up peaceful protests and detaining people for exercising speech they don't like. If you don't stand up and let your voices be heard now you may not have the chance

There is no world in which it is normal for the president to publicly call upon his attorney general to hurry up and prosecute his political foes. It’s like the Watergate tapes but posted on social media. Let’s get a grip on what’s happening here.

The last time Trump negotiated with the Taliban, he let fighters out of prison in exchange for nothing and cut out the Afghan govt, setting up its collapse. Why would anyone think Trump negotiating with the Taliban would yield gains, now that the Taliban’s position is stronger and America’s weaker?

No notes.

Foreign press should treat the Trump administration like you would Putin's, and be as skeptical about American mainstream press as you would Russian mainstream press. Media orgs are being bullied into compliance. As an example, this highly-sanitized headline from @npr www.npr.org/2025/09/20/g...

This is what fascism looks like. The First Amendment is first for a reason
