GOP: I can't believe Dems are trying to stop us from taking away your healthcare. Just for that, no food for you.

Today's rush hour resistance message HEY GOP: NO HEALTHCARE, NO DEAL! The weather cooperated, the atmosphere was positive and supportive, the music kept everyone moving, and the turnout was great! Each and everyone a hero of American democracy. We need healthcare not a #TrumpShutdown

Sincerity and clarity.

Triple gold stars for the perfect turn of phrase!

Just a reminder that anthropogenic climate change is not a hoax, to use the word of a well-known dotard.

I'd say that King Charles taking Andrew's titles and evicting him from his royal home means Charles found the fire within the smoke. It is a lovely and appropriate time to release the Epstein files and discover who else is a pedophile.

Spot on.

As of today, we're in Dr. Strangelove territory. #Nukes #BeginTestingNukesImmediately

Never in the history of the US has any president openly and repeatedly called for the investigation, arrest & prosecution of his political opponents. While many continue to shrug these things off and normalize them, I will never stop pointing out that this is what autocrats do.

America First? Nope. It’s 100% Trump First.

Democrats in Congress: Stay strong in pursuit of Medicaid, affordable ACA health care and the release of the Epstein files! #Shutdown

Musk is a self-serving racist pig. I think he should drop any pretense of any goal outside of white supremacy.

Mike Johnson's "know nothing" schtick is getting old. Time for the press to push harder. Or even just push.

🫢 😳 😧 🤢 🤮 😡 I have an even worse feeling about THIS:

This is so fucked up.

Whoa.

Let's just call it what it is: the Trump-Epstein Shutdown.

It's Tuesday, Oct. 28. Time to release the unredacted Epstein files! Thank you for your attention to this matter.

ROLLING STONE: “The current Congress has dropped the pretense of public service altogether… Congress enjoys ultraluxe health care as it fights to gut yours.” @RepTimBurchett @MarshaBlackburn why don’t you care about anyone but yourselves? www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

It's time to release the unredacted Epstein files.

Did you know that over 1.3M active duty service members and veterans rely on SNAP benefits to feed themselves and their families? Now you know.

Argentina's President Milei got a sweet handout from Trump to the tune of $20-40 Billion that enabled him to win the midterm elections this week. This will tighten his grip on the populist/authoritarian/"libertarian" brand of government he heads. Who will bail out the United States? Billionaires?

Agreed…. These pansies should get a life!!!

OK. Question for the people smarter than me. Is there any legal process that could move the immigration courts OUT of the executive branch and into the judicial branch?

Turn on the sound and listen to this farmer's words, directly from him.

Hilarious.

Please sir I am just a small soybean farmer and a common man

He orders extrajudicial killings. He sent troops into our cities. He terrorizes citizens with ICE raids. He raised taxes without congressional approval. He has ruined American farmers and ranchers. He plans to starve the vulnerable. He demolished our house. Remove him from office.

Beautiful young stars, not the Hollywood kind.

The Constitution gives the "power of the purse" to Congress. Trump is perverting constitutional authority. This is not how our republic should work.

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."

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.

Idahoans deserve everything they get from their actions. But the vulnerable people, young and old, don't.

Start using those paper clips, kids.

White beaked dolphins breach beside our boat in the North Atlantic as snowcapped peaks of Arctic fjords rise into clouds.

Once again.

Good morning. It's been 31 days since Adelita Grijalva was elected by the people of Arizona's seventh congressional district to represent them in Congress. Mike Johnson still refuses to swear her in.

Attorney General Letitia James has launched a government portal for submitting videos and photos of ICE agents suspected of criminal activity

Trump's ballroom ain't bringin' down the price of groceries or the cost of healthcare. Trump literally cares more about Argentina than Americans.

Well said.

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 80th day out of the last 92. The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown. It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

Learn a little real history, folks! (It's in the context below the image.)
