No indication yet from major media that the FBI has any interest whatsoever in investigating this apparent attempted assassination of a well-known judge openly targeted on social media by the far-right activist—Harmeet Dhillon—currently calling herself Assistant Attorney General of the United States

Lolz. Truth! 😹

I keep hearing people preach that going third party will fix this country. The two parties would ally against any third that would pop up. We need to change it by forcing the Democratic party to become as progressive as we want. We have the formula, Kat is hopefully proving that. Mamdani did.

Pritzker went on CNN and replied to Noem’s “People on the streets are clapping as we do our work.” Pritzker said:  “They’re not, they’re booing her on the street and they’re booing ice and CBP... they’re picking up people who are brown and black and then checking their credentials.” -Jason Easley

Republicans want things like this to happen more. Death cult.

Here’s what we know about the lynching Trey Reed: 1) he was hit on the back of the head, and had multiple contusions. 2) he was strangled manually and then hung from the tree 3) he had an altercation with 4 white students in defense of his sister, who had posted something about Charlie Kirk

Thou shalt not shut down your entire government just to protect billionaire pedophiles.

NEVER FORGET: Any U.S. Congress or state & local Government member NOT speaking out AGAINST these CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY by ICE & their co-conspirators is JUST as COMPLICIT. YOU WILL BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE BY THE PEOPLE!

So Mike Johnson just told members of the House to stay home until 10/14. He *really* doesn’t want to swear in Grijalva and face that vote on the Epstein files. This *also* means the government will be shut down for another ten days at least.

BREAKING: A federal judge has temporarily blocked Trump from deploying the National Guard in Portland, ruling he overstepped his authority and violated state sovereignty. The court said Trump’s move lacked any “colorable basis” and was not justified by conditions on the ground.

If your coping mechanism for authoritarianism is "I'm not an immigrant, so this won't happen to me" – you're NOT fucking coping.

Yes they do.

Motion to start referring to tariffs as "the war on Christmas"

…and “mainstream” or “moderate” Republicans say nothing. I used to think it was cowardice, but they have gone along with so much that it is now clear they support it all.

I visited the apartment building ICE raided on Tuesday today. Story to come, but you can walk right in. Half of the apartments have no doors on them. Children's stuff abandoned in some flats. *Citizen* residents told me they were arrested and held for hours in zipties. This is America

This happened during the shutdown

Spot on.

Elon Musk’s Twitter feed is the farthest-right, most hateful and disinformation-forward social media feed I’ve seen of any person who doesn’t openly identify as a member of a hate group. It’s toxic at a level that in any other era would have led to *anyone* in business ceasing all dealings with him.

Fascist says what?

BRAVO!

He was here LEGALLY. Another shining example of why you should never take republican positions or talking points at their face value.

“Call it ‘order’ if you want, but what I see is a cop assaulting an unarmed civilian. In 1933 Germany, ‘police brutality’ wasn’t a concept either—just state-sanctioned violence. Portland is the warning: this is how democracy dies.”

It’s the Epstein files shutdown.

Republicans will not care, or notice this until it happens, and when it does it'll be the Democrats fault.

Doublethink.

what most people want at this moment is a fix for fascism that keeps the tone and power imbalances in tact and that's not gonna work

This just so happens to be what most farmers voted for.

Here’s what we know about the 2024 election: A MASSIVE number of ballots (substantially more than the margin of the election) were undercount DEM ballots in the seven swing states. Meaning the entire ballot was voted Dem, but the top slot for POTUS was counted as blank. Now you can believe

Governor Pritzker on Trump’s craziness: "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."

Donald Trump and Pete Hegseth wish to use the US armed forces against Americans. We found multiple experts in Moscow and Pyongyang who endorsed this approach.

NEW—US Department of Education sent out standard Out of Office language to employees on Wednesday in light of shutdown. Later yesterday, workers tell me they found someone had updated their auto-responses without consent to a new one blaming Democrats. Version of original on left, updated on right:

How humiliating

TRUTH AMERICA 👇

This is so indefensibly insane: Speaker Johnson is refusing to seat Congresswoman-elect Adelita Grijalva because she'll be the 218th vote to release the Epstein files. Johnson swore in Rep Walkinshaw (VA) w/in 24 hours. Johnson is abandoning his job to instead protect a convicted child sex predator

It’s depressing to realize people I used to consider friends have become people whom I would not tell where Anne Frank was hiding. Not mine

Tim Walz: "My god, we've got the White House threatening investigations and jail time because an escalator stopped? Walk up the damn stairs!"

Epstein.

Republicans control the White House, Senate, and House. This government shutdown is on them.

Trump’s Big Beautiful Bill just raised health insurance rates by an average of $2,000 a year for middle class Minnesotans. He’s prioritizing the pocketbooks of the wealthy - leaving rural communities, middle class families, and small businesses out in the dust.
