I love how these folks just assume that all of these people are just sitting around doing nothing Two-thirds of people with SNAP benefits have jobs! The other third are children and people too infirm to work!

Sudan's paramilitary Rapid Support Forces claim they've seized the Sudanese army's last base in El Fasher, Darfur - trapping hundreds of thousands and stoking fears the country could split in two.

Ahem

This video from Portland is a metaphor for what is going on in America. ICE trying so hard to get Americans to cross a line and if they don't, dragging them across the line and violently attacking.

We voted for their farms because we know Democratic policies are better for farmers. Unfortunately, farmers didn’t vote for their farms. And they’ll keep voting Republican.

2025: The real horror show, just in time for Halloween.

Congress basically doesn’t exist at this point

Frank is the son of one of the architects of the Religious Right. He was there when it was born, literally in the same room as people like Falwell. When Exvangelicals offer warnings about what's happening, please listen. We grew up with it. Trump was just their vessel, but CN is far more dangerous.

One factory was contaminated with pigeon feces. At another, pathogens got into purified water used to produce drugs. But when the FDA cites an errant factory, it conceals an important piece of information: the names of drugs made there.

Almost every major news story this week is about how the entire economy is now gambling, scams, bribes and theft.

I’ve voted twice to make independent redistricting the law of the land nationwide, and I would gladly do so again. But I also live in the real world. I’m voting YES on Prop 50. Here’s why: #VoteYESonProp50

Would have loved to see the due-diligence on this one. 🤡 @financialtimes.com $UMAC www.ft.com/content/4ced...

Watch this. Open your eyes to this brutality. ICE beats up, drags & abducts this disabled visually impaired man. Now share this. Everyone must see the brutality of this administration & ask themselves what they are doing to push back. You have power. Even sharing this video exerts that power.

"Mike Johnson has accomplished what open insurrection never could: the methodical, bureaucratic nullification of Congress itself, eliminating its ability to perform oversight over Trump."

My cartoon from January… (didn’t think it would literally come true) ✍️

FDR Memorial, Washington DC. -RIP East Wing-

Perfect metaphor for what he's done to our democracy.

Can someone take out the garbage sitting in the Oval Office. The stench is becoming overwhelming. www.c-span.org/program/whit...

“disturbing that the military is being led under a banner of Christian nationalism...A military leader organizing worship services outside the context of military chaplaincies...should raise concerns abt religious coercion...Establishment Clause was meant to protect against this kind of pressure”

💔 Russian troops shoot six civilians in Donetsk Oblast, one woman survives

If the National Guard is really in D.C. to protect federal property, they should probably have been at 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. two days ago

Carney: But this decades-long process of an ever-closer economic relationship with the United States is now over. And as a consequence, many of our former strengths as a country—more particularly, our economic strengths based on close ties to America—have now become our vulnerabilities…

NEW: The FDA routinely redacts drug names on its factory inspection reports, making it difficult for Americans to learn whether their meds are made at substandard factories. www.propublica.org/article/fda-...

"In the two years since the state started charging a 4% surtax on incomes over $1 million, the effort has created a $5.7 billion windfall, with the surplus being used to fund bridge repairs, bolster literacy programs and address the transportation system’s budget deficit." Taxing the rich works!

This is very good

Is there any indication at all that they did any conservation of this interior or did they literally take the wrecking ball to it all?

Live look at the White House:

The same people who lost their minds over renovations to Cracker Barrel are totally fine with the White House getting bulldozed

Melania Trump working directly with Putin to get eight Ukrainian children freed from Russia downplays the enormity of the crime. Russia kidnapped at least 19,000 children from Ukraine. That number could be significantly higher. www.cnn.com/2025/10/22/p...

Confederates were let totally off the hook, the architects of Vietnam and Iraq suffered no consequences, Wall Street bankers got richer, and the guy who did Jan. 6 got re-elected. The United States is a cautionary tale for what happens when a society gives total impunity to the rich and powerful.

I'm not sure you can get more marie antoinette than taking away food stamps before thanksgiving while you build a gold and marble dance hall so the other crooks can bring bribe you over a badly-cooked (argentinian) steak

Trump has believed, since his first term, that the U.S. treasury is his personal piggy bank (as he did with his personal charity). The entire purpose of his presidency is to funnel as much of it as he can to himself and his family

This is the administration claiming to strip “waste and fraud” from the government

The White House is asking people not to share pictures of the East Wing because it’s even worse today.

What is a good American? trib.al/o67QZyA It’s simple: One who believes in the Constitution, representative government, the rule of law, and certain inalienable rights for all. That’s it. No Jesus. No God. No Christianity. The title “American” is open to all.

A Refresher course in fighting AUTOCRACY! EVEN THOUGH MUCH HAS COME TO FRUITION IT IS NEVER TOO LATE & WE MUST NEVER GIVE UP! (THIS VIDEO IS A YEAR OLD, PRE-PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION 2024): www.youtube.com/watch?v=Dp6P...

Along with the $20 billion U.S. taxpayer bailout to Argentina, the Trump admin announced another $20 billion for Argentina from private banks. But the banks won’t lend the money without a guarantee from the federal government. So it’s a $40B taxpayer bailout. www.wsj.com/finance/arge...

A reminder that any moment of Trump being “pro-Ukraine” is rapidly corrected once Trump has had his latest instructions from the Kremlin. on.ft.com/4ooVl9l

The woman arrested in Fairhope, Alabama for wearing an inflatable penis costume is 61-year-old Jeana Renea Gamble She’s being charged with disorderly conduct and resisting arrest. If you saw the video, you know she wasn’t resisting. Three officers held her down & mounted the appendage:

If you’re waiting on the better angels of tech CEOs, don’t hold your breath.

The GOP Know Nothing, Do Nothing party that touts free speech is now going after citizens for their free speech. substack.com/@resistmaga/...?

Jeffries: "You've got Leavitt, who's sick, she's out of control. I'm not sure if she's just demented, ignorant, a stone cold liar, or all of the above. But the notion that an official WH spokesperson would say that the D Party consists of 'terrorists, violent criminals & undocumented immigrants'..."

heartbroken to learn the pope sympathizes with the poor. how can i continue to believe in god
