Democrats would do well to remember that trusting a party defined by deceit and bad faith isn’t just naïve, it’s dangerous to democracy itself.

Healthcare is a basic human right. Food is basic human right. Education, housing, clean air & water are human rights. Using healthcare and food as leverage should be grounds for removal from office. SNAP, Medicaid and the ACA are worth fighting for. People will die without them.

I recall the orange convicted felon once saying people would stand in long lines begging for food if Kamala Harris became President. Now in 2025 people are seen in Cleveland and other cities standing in long lines for food due to his cruelty. Endless projection. I hate him.

She conducted a social experiment to see if churches would help a hungry baby...and a lot of them flipped her off... www.friendlyatheist.com/p/a-tiktoker...

Russia launched hundreds of drones and missiles targeting thermal power plants and substations across Ukraine. The strikes shut down all state-owned thermal generation, causing widespread blackouts and halting electricity, heating, and water nationwide as winter temperatures drop. #StandWithUkraine

It’s been 45 days since Adelita Grijalva was elected by the people of Arizona. Mike Johnson is still refusing to swear her in because she’s the final vote for the discharge petition to release the Epstein files.

I worked at my local food bank yesterday and want to put a shout out to Costco.They regularly donate one heck of a lot of food to the food banks. Pallets of all kinds of food, fresh included. Yesterday a whole pallet of fresh strawberries.Any damaged pallet even if it's just the wood gets donated

CARTOON OF THE DAY

🔥 @agiftfromtodd.bsky.social : "Y’all get it now?? Do you understand what’s possible? I don't wanna hear no more 'my vote doesn't matter. Nothing ever changes.' Look what happens when you participate. We win everything. There are more of us… for the rest of your damn life, you gotta vote.”

Beshear: Let me be clear. The president has both the funding and the authority to fund snap during a shutdown. In fact, every other president in every other shutdown has done so. People going hungry in this instance is a choice that this president has made.

It’s absurd

Incredible

A win! A federal judge has ruled that the White House must once again provide American Sign Language interpreters during press briefings. The U.S. District Judge Amir Ali emphasized that these briefings inform Americans about critical

Two million votes were cast in New York’s mayoral race with 15 minutes remaining until the polls closed, according to the NYC Board of Elections. It's the first time 2 million New Yorkers voted in local elections since 1969, the board said.

Hell yeah we are!

BREAKING: Three Democratic justices on the Pennsylvania Supreme Court have all won another 10-year term in a retention election. The Court’s 5-2 Democratic majority will remain, giving Democrats the chance to continue using it to protect voting rights. More to come.

A seeming bit of history tonight as Ghazala Hashmi becomes the first Asian American to win statewide office in Virginia - and the first Muslim woman to win statewide office *anywhere* in the United States.

YESSSSSS 🔥🔥🔥

WOOOHOOOO

We’re going to have to get used to this. 2026 and 2028 are likely to look very similar. No matter what side of the aisle you’re on, attempts to prevent US citizens from voting should be a red line for you. We can’t allow terroristic threats to keep us from the polls.

it's time for journos to start asking Johnson meta questions "Speaker, on 5 occasions last week you said 'I haven't seen it' when asked about news events w/big implications for public policy. Do you ever read the news, and do you agree it's problematic for the Speaker to be so woefully uninformed?"

Tomorrow is a big day. The resistance has been nothing short of historic volunteers across Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Virginia, New York, and California have shown up in record numbers. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you. You’re making history and remember, tomorrow there will be more of us.

Fired for defending science and speaking the truth. Dr. George Tidmarsh, head of the FDA’s drug division, says he was placed on administrative leave after questioning the legal basis of a new “rapid approval” program for certain drugs. A longtime industry veteran who joined the agency in

I can’t wait to see Zohran Mamdani whip Andrew Cuomo’s butt on Tuesday. How about you? 😃 www.zohranfornyc.com

Californians, please vote Yes on 50 today if you haven't already. If it comes up with anyone you know, encourage them to do the same. Please

Obama: The weird videos of a U.S. President with a crown on his head flying a fighter jet and dumping poop on protesting citizens… All of that is designed to distract you from the fact that your situation has not gotten better.

Obama: When I think back to a year ago, I remember talking to some people, who would say, this election doesn't matter all that much. That however the next president ended up being, it wasn't going to matter to them. If nothing else, the last nine months should have cured us of that idea.

😂

Obama: As for the president, he has been focused on critical issues like paving over the rose garden so folks don't get mud on their shoes and gold plating the Oval Office and building a ballroom… If you can't visit a doctor, don't worry. He will save you a dance.

Married has over 1500 legal benefits, including right of survivorship and inheritance. It’s more important to be legally married than some people think.

Newsom: "He is not screwing around. He's changing the rules. He's rigging the game because he knows he'll lose if all things are equal. He did not expect California to fight fire with fire."

Want to keep film in Los Angeles and support women crew? The best way to do that is by supporting Women in Media, a nonprofit I’m I’ve had the pleasure of serving for over 6 years! Small contributions make a big impact. Big contributions change lives>> givebutter.com/cameraderie/...

California – this Election Day, vote yes on Prop 50. California’s Prop 50 says that if Republicans are going to abuse the system to try and hang onto power, we’re going to counteract that abuse and create a level playing field in the midterm elections. Make a plan to vote yes on Prop 50.

In Virginia, the governor and attorney general races are especially important. In Pennsylvania, remember to vote YES on the retention of the Supreme Court justices on the ballot. In California, vote YES on Proposition 50.

"Ms. Monahan, 61, paid $439 a month for her coverage in 2025. When she went to shop for next year’s plan, she learned that the monthly cost would jump to $1,059 for the same plan with an annual deductible of $7,100..." Thanks, GOP congress! Thanks, Trump! www.nytimes.com/2025/10/29/h...

Everything is fine

Too many Americans either didn’t care or didn’t believe. Hopefully they do now.👇

The president had a MRI but won't say why. He had bruises on his hands but wouldn't say why. He just had an 'annual medical' even though he already had his annual medical. He got shot in the ear but has never released the medical records relating to it. How is any of this ok?

If you make 130% of the federal poverty level, you qualify for SNAP. A family of four, making $40,560, qualifies for SNAP benefits meaning thousands of Missouri teachers qualify. I’m tired of the bullshit. Most of the people who receive snap benefits work.

Now!

Thinking about Jamaica. Sending thoughts of safety & calm.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 84th day out of the last 96. 12 days of work in over 3 months. With full pay and benefits. The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown. It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

Gallego: "It's murder. It's very simple. If this president feels they are doing something illegally, then he should be using the Coast Guard. If this is an act of war, then you use our military and then you come and talk to us first. But this is murder ... it's disgusting."

It’s more than just bad priorities. It’s about lack of basic decency.

Nothing good will come of this. Our govt should do their job. End of story.
