I need some car repairs and we are having a hard time getting the parts in — it seems tariffs are playing a big part in the mess. Here is a response from a mechanic 👇🏻

The National Archives released a mostly unredacted version of Rep. Mikie Sherrill's military records to an ally of Jack Ciattarelli, her GOP opponent in the NJ governor's race. The disclosure potentially violates several U.S. privacy laws. www.cbsnews.com/news/nationa...

CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1965: 20-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio in 1990: 75-1 CEO-to-worker pay ratio today: 280-to-1 Trickle-down economics was always a sham. Nothing has ever trickled down.

South Park isn't just a cartoon anymore; it's now a documentary.

What about the rest of us?????

Blue states to write welfare checks for millionaire farmers that voted for Trump.

I mean, you knew it was coming

I have become more sympathetic to the idea that saying you can’t hold Trump voters morally culpable for Trump regime actions is patronizing. It partakes of an old and to my mind destructive left wing habit: to think of conservative white voters as not quite adults.

I'm a reporter not a political strategist, but one answer to the question of "What can the opposition do?" is "Use the extraordinary investigative powers members of Congress have even when in the minority to get new information courts and journalists can't get."

If a government tells you that you can’t call it authoritarian, it’s authoritarian.

Mahmoud Khalil is a legal resident who was unjustly detained for nonviolent protests in support of Gaza. As he continues his ongoing legal fight with the Trump administration, we stand with him against the abuses of our immigration system.

Trump and Secretary Noem are abusing their power to create fear, trauma, and terror in our immigrant communities. @salinas.house.gov and I introduced a resolution to make it clear that our communities are suffering at the hands of an out-of-control Administration and their terror force—ICE.

Republicans enacted the largest health care cut in history this summer, denying 15 million Americans coverage. Now, the GOP wants to inflict even more pain on your family because they'd rather shut down the federal government next Tuesday than stop insurance premium spikes by as much as 75%.

One week ago, I voted for a budget that would keep our government open, protect healthcare for millions of Americans, & lower costs. Republicans blocked that budget & senselessly left town. If Republicans keep refusing to do their jobs, they will cause the government to shut down in 5️⃣ days.

I call bullshit. They are just making shit up now and while we are at it there are legitimate questions about Tyler Robinson now as well. Starting with he didn't have a rifle when he went up the stairs to the roof and he didn't have one when he jumped off the roof.

If only we’d known in 2015 that we could just turn off the escalator.

When the Right lies about the Left, it's called "Free Speech" but when the Left tells the truth about the Right, it's called "Inciting Violence."

Can't help but notice that the media breathlessly reporting on the messages that shooters write on their bullets seems to have been followed by a surge of shooters writing messages on bullets

BREAKING: A federal judge has ordered the University of South Dakota to reinstate a professor who posted criticism of Charlie Kirk on his Facebook page the day of the shooting, finding the action likely violated the First Amendment. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

a Reichstag fire, but one of them every week

I guess I just don’t understand why an anti-ICE sniper would aim at immigrants… And why are so many people engraving bullets these days? I have questions.

Speaking of voices under attack…can we be just as loud about Black journalists and comedians who are silenced, even by our so-called liberal outlets. • Joy Reid • Don Lemon • Melissa Harris-Perry • Tiffany Cross • Jemele Hill • Marc Lamont Hill • Karen Attiah • Amber Ruffin

Odd, how we can’t afford to give Americans healthcare, but we can afford to drop $200,000,000,000 on Argentina with a moment’s notice.

At what point do we start disbelieving positive numbers because we’re so sure the government is cooking the books to make the boss happy?

Semi-regular reminder that a sane country would have already impeached and removed. But then again a sane country wouldn’t have elected a maniac criminal twice in the first place.

What the last 9 months have been for us Federal employees under the Doge-bags.

He doesn't believe in democracy (his words). He wants the US to be a bunch of techno-facist feudal states.

"Yeah, it was clearly illegal, but what are going to do?" becoming the defining legal mantra of the Trump era. All of this conditioned by SCOTUS refusing to act with any sort of urgency until the damage is done *except* when Trump asks them to jump in to facilitate the damage.

These motherfuckers have the gall to go on TV, repeatedly talk about how we are in a fascist country, and then email us afterwards saying the only way out is to give them money personally.

The fascists have, are and will continue to cause great damage. I am clear eyed but they are NOT invincible if people ACTUALLY stop being ridiculous and take regular and concerted action.

Not true at all. Talk to immigrants. There is a reason millions and millions of people over the years have put their lives on the line to get into this country.

Italy has moved me to tears for 3 days straight. Bravo ❤️

Literally what my book is about. The ultimate cost of borders is the nation itself.

I actually think it's off base for the descriptor of these angry young white men who think violence is cool and/or funny to be "non-political." They are making rape jokes and saying racist things and wanting to sow chaos. That's literally the Alex Jones, Steve Bannon playbook.

The richest man on earth owns X. The second richest man on earth is about to be a major owner of TikTok. The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post. See the problem here?

Good job, mate. Top notch. www.thecrimson.com/article/2025...

Is this supposed to be a threat? They did this exact thing while the government was open

The raging misogyny was always a tell that SV was never the liberal nirvana people keep proclaiming it was/is. But who listens to women, eh?

if you dont stop calling us nazis we will have the secret police disappear you to a slave labor camp

He really is that obnoxious grad student who stays in the program for one or two semesters, wants to do military history, argues with every single woman on the faculty, takes gender and Black history courses just to be a troll and finally leaves because he ‘was being censored’

One of the arguments for Dems caving is that the GOP will use a shutdown as an excuse for cutting spending and... buddy, what are you even talking about? For months now the Trump admin has simply disregarded the law, ripping everything apart and stealing personal data. It's already happening.

Billionaires, lawyers, college presidents you can stand up for the rest of us anytime….. I know it might be inconvenient but this guy is driving us into a ditch

Charleston quite famously wanted to enforce it's fugitive slave laws in Boston

i really wish our law enforcement and media werent telegraphing to mass shooters that messages written on bullets will be breathlessly and uncritically publicized with no further examination

I don’t know if Heritage and their spin-off the Oversight Project will succeed in influencing the FBI. I don’t know that unconfirmed reports of the FBI’s plans make trans people any less safe than they were already. But this is a dangerous, even extremist proposal. newrepublic.com/article/2008...

I looked into the group and the guy pushing the FBI to create a new designation of “transgender ideology–inspired violence and extremism”—itself a political project, meant to conflate the fact of trans people’s existence with extremism.

No more Chobani yogurt for me!!! 😡 #BoycottChobani www.usatoday.com/story/money/...

NEW: A Senate report has shocking new detail on how DOGE—which is very much still active, even as government agencies deny it even exists—put Social Security at up to 65% risk of a catastrophic data breach, per agency estimates, as well as viscerally disgusting detail on its sleeping arrangements.
