The House takes 2 months off & finally reports back to work & promptly spends the next week filing censure motions against each other & attending black tie dinners w/Saudis while the clock counts down for 24 million people to have their health insurance premiums spike in 42 days.

Every single Republican president in my lifetime has crashed the goddamn economy. Trump’s the first to do it twice.

You may not be able to afford rent and groceries, and your health insurance may be about to skyrocket in 42 days, but the good news is that the Saudis got F-35s, nuclear tech, and security guarantees after putting hundreds of millions in Trump’s pocket.

In a civilized country, Trump's treatment of women reporters would drop his approvals so low that he'd be forced to leave office.

NEW: Epstein survivors release the most powerful PSA I have ever seen. Make this go viral so every member of the House of Representatives sees it.

Homeland Security is not protecting us. It’s terrorizing us.

The one and only

... why would they need immunity? do they think they're committing crimes?

ICE is still being paid. Congress is still being paid. Private jets are still being bought. The White House is still being renovated. In the most prosperous country in the history of the world... This.👇

agreeing to make a terrible deal while your main opponent is quite literally being boo'd on live tv by an entire stadium of people is the kind of political instinct you'd normally only find in a 3 week old dead goldfish

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person. The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person. People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives. And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

I don't know what will happen in NYC tonight, but I do know that regardless of outcome, any number of public figures, celebrities, politicians and institutions that oppose Mamdani have done so with a level of rhetorical ugliness, racism, and dishonesty that should neither be forgotten nor forgiven.

We have an ignorant electorate who doesn't take the time to actually understand the issues and policies that impact them.

📍 𝐇𝐎𝐔𝐒𝐓𝐎𝐍, 𝐓𝐄𝐗𝐀𝐒: A U.S.-born teenager says masked immigration agents beat and choked him, hurled slurs like “border-hopper,” and dragged him from a car — despite identifying himself as a citizen. #AbuseofPowerWatch

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.

Our military is being paid by an anonymous donor. Our WH East Wing was demolished for a ballroom - paid for by donors. These aren’t acts of benevolence or patriotism. This is the oligarchy assuming control, insidiously becoming part of how we function. Every American should reject it.

The war on Christmas has begun

ICE is stockpiling arms, including chemical weapons, guided missile warheads and explosive components. The spending dwarfs anything we've ever seen in the agency - a 700% increase. The President is building an army to attack his own country.

Donald Trump broke a promise and then ruined something? Well, I never.

Well, you can finally cross “I’ve seen a handcuffed, inflatable penis” off your bucket list

Mike Johnson has now had the House adjourned for 73 out of the last 85 days. Epstein Shutdown.

I don't think Mike Johnson is built to be on tv this much and I think he is losing his mind

“Americans have been dragged, tackled, beaten, tased and shot by immigration agents. They’ve had their necks kneeled on. They’ve been held outside in the rain while in their underwear. At least three citizens were pregnant when agents detained them.“

I am sounding the alarm that the GOP is engaged in an all out attack voting rights and free and fair elections. Voter suppression, gerrymandering, and troops in blue cities are just some of the ways they are using to try to rig the rules to keep power in 2026 and beyond. Pay attention and act!

They know the history. They’re lying. They know they’re lying. We know they’re lying. And they know that we know that they’re lying.

Masked agents snatching people at work, church, their child’s daycare. A return of family separations. States are lining up to run their own detention centers. Anti-immigrant animus is now being paired with unprecedented funding, manpower, and technology. We report from inside the American gulag.

As @willbunch.bsky.social said - "Shutdown crisis gives Dems a chance to take stand against tyranny". Will they??

“Musk’s data centers will probably bring in only a few hundred jobs to Memphis while consuming millions of gallons of water a day and more electricity than is needed to power all the city’s homes.” 1/2 www.wsj.com/tech/elon-mu...

Yeah, he keeps telling us about this $17 Trillion. Can somebody ask him where it is? I know MSM is just catching up on the zip tied children story. Now that P Diddy is finally sentenced maybe NBC Nightly News can cover this?

The Conservative Men Who Are Scared of Cities have escalated to gassing civilians for being rude to them.

ICE is running around Chicago harassing people for not being white. Just a year ago, that was illegal in the United States and now it’s commonplace. That’s not making America great again.

I cannot emphasize enough that this administration shouldn’t get 𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘭𝘦 𝘷𝘰𝘵𝘦 from the Dems until they start obeying the law. Not. One. Optics matter: if you want people to turn out next election despite troops in the streets, then show them it matters. Do your goddamn jobs and hold the line.

“ABC7 spoke to Pertissue Fisher, a woman who lives in the building. She said ICE agents took everyone in the building, including her, and asked questions later….’They was bringing the kids down, too, had them zip tied to each other.’” It can’t happen here, you say. But it is happening.

For the price of a $400 million jet/bribe, you too can get your very own US security guarantee

Hillary Clinton referred to SOME Trump supporters as”deplorable,” and the political media had a meltdown. Trump refers to all Democrats as anti-American radical communists and “the enemy within,” and it’s no big deal. His reckless and dangerous demonization has been fully normalized.

Word from the meeting last night is that Speaker kept bringing up “health care for illegal aliens,” seemingly unaware that Medicaid and Medicare and Affordable Care coverage are by law NOT available to anyone here illegally.

I did it. I added some Keystone Cops music to this:

We saw this years ago. His first term was an example of why he went bankrupt 6 times. This term is a vendeta against all that didn't bow down to him when he lost in 2020, which is most of the world. His cult has a hard time seeing that even though they are suffering.

I think the Trump admin assumed no one would try to find out who the people on the boats they blew up really were

And we know the concessions: 1. Have to happen before Trump signs anything, and 2. Cannot be directly related to funding because SCOTUS has already intimated that Trump doesn’t have to spend congressionally appropriated funds.

The same guy telling you Portland is war-ravaged, told you Mexico was going to pay for the wall and people were eating your pets in Ohio.

Just 2 gun rights advocates sitting behind a wall of bulletproof glass while enjoying a memorial for a gun rights advocate who got murdered by a gun.

I think you're right. I don't know that it'll be effective, but it's very much a political positioning strategy. When the shutdown happens, they can make a decent case to the media that it's not because of them. It's an old play, but it's also how this stuff is supposed to work.
