Editorial— The Archbishop of Boston should be standing up for his flock and calling-out the abuses of the Trump regime, not scolding one of his pastors for a Nativity display. www.dotnews.com/2025/editori...

Houses are expensive because billionaires gobble up homes and fix the rent or turn them into Airbnbs. The billionaires want you to think immigrants are buying up all the property.

Hey @mbta.com WHY is the Red Line crawling into JFK? If I ever make it to DTX & switch to the Orange line, I might get motion sickness from the transition to such high speeds.

Marjorie Taylor Greene's resigning in time to get a pension is a lesson to everyone. Most Americans don't get *any* pension anymore, but Congress gave itself a pension after only five years of work. Our "representatives" aren't working for us, they are [barely] working for themselves.

The deal to end the shutdown would pave the way for senators to sue over phone searches. Because the provision is retroactive to 2022, it would appear to make eligible the eight lawmakers whose phone records were subpoenaed by investigators for Mr. Smith... www.nytimes.com/2025/11/10/u...

Are you paying attention, @shaheen.senate.gov @hassan.senate.gov @durbin.senate.gov @kaine.senate.gov @sencortezmasto.govpeeps.us

If you’re unhappy with their choice, let them know. 📱202 224-3121 *Angus King from Maine (independent caucuses w/ Dems)), *Tim Kaine (VA) *John Fetterman (PA) *Maggie Hassan (NH) *Jeanne Shaheen (NH) *Catherine Cortez Masto (NV) *Jacky Rosen (NV) *Dick Durbin (IL)

Dear @kaine.senate.gov Resign. Don't vote and then resign - RESIGN NOW. You are no longer a Democrat

This part. Which Dems are getting heat from donors now that business travel is being impacted? Embarrassing.

It should be that simple.

Sanders: That is a totally meaningless gesture. You can get 100 votes here and it won't mean anything because the House is not going to take it up.

It’s this simple

Should be pretty clear that without House commitment on a vote on ACA extensions, it is purely symbolic as part of the Senate deal

I’m voting no on the continuing resolution that would double healthcare premiums for 20 million Americans, kick 15 million people off Medicaid & allow 50,000 Americans to die unnecessarily every year. All to give $1 trillion in tax breaks for billionaires.

FFS, @kaine.senate.gov, that’s already the law, so you got nothing. Your constituents just voted for @abigailspanberger.com and then you fold? Find your spine, please!!

MY Senators know how to #holdthelineforhealthcare! #mapoli

Lead or get out of the way, @schumer.senate.gov. This is your crucible moment. #HoldTheLineforHealthcare

Thank you, @gallego.senate.gov.

What a humiliation for the Democrats it would be to bow down now. It really sounds like they are contemplating an unforced error of mind boggling proportions.

If every @senatedemocrats.bsky.social who is about to capitulate donated their entire campaign accounts to local food banks & mutual aid in their districts, they’d win re-election in a landslide. I’m looking at you, @kaine.senate.gov, @hassan.senate.gov, @ossoff.senate.gov, @warnock.senate.gov

Speaker Johnson has repeatedly said he won’t schedule a vote on extending the Obamacare subsidies. So what good is a Senate deal to end the shutdown that hinges on them promising a vote? It would be pointless.

Any Senate Democrats who vote to cave are feckless, weak-willed and gullible — or even worse. The American people want you to hold the line and keep on fighting. DO NOT FOLD!!!

If we want to stop the kidnappings and these agents require anonymity to commit these actions, then we must remove the masks. So long as we allow masked law enforcement to terrorize people, we cannot be a democracy.

🩸🩸🩸 NEVER FORGET: Instead of honoring our Constitution's key principle of a Peaceful Transfer of Power, POS Donald Trump Abused his Power on Jan 6th by inciting this violent & deadly attack on our country's Capital and should be in prison for life 🩸🩸🩸

Make way for ducklings! The Boston ducklings are back, standing on the right side of history and looking fabulous doing it. We’re all immigrants here, descendants of those who came with courage, not visas.🫶🏻🦆🐥 @jackdaryl.bsky.social

Where are all the liberal millionaires? We need DOLLARS going to food banks right now & they have DOLLARS. Hey #Hollywood, show us what you’re made of and feed the kids. @sagaftra.org

And Trump’s main priority is a gilded ballroom.

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.

Here are the companies destroying the east wing of the White House

The GOP health plan finally got my ass. Insurance co just told me my plan's going away at the end of the year, and from what I can tell there will be *zero* marketplace PPO plans in Oregon next year. If you've got a marketplace plan and you need care out-of-network, you're just fucked.

My dad (95) has an opinion.

It’s evident that the GOP is keeping the government shut down indefinitely to try and force Americans into a broken submission. We will not break. We will persevere.

No words.

Today, the White House Press Secretary told the country that this ridiculous damn ballroom is “the president’s main priority”…not reopening the government, not lowering the cost of groceries, not lowering the cost of housing, not lowering the cost of healthcare….building a ballroom

American Horror Story (2025)

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 81st day out of the last 93. 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.

If you're represented by a Republican, tell them it's time for Mike Johnson to swear in Representative-elect Adelita Grijalva. No more excuses or delays. app.sosha.ai/s/VKWd74l1

BARI Director Dan O'Brien's research refuting the "Broken Windows Theory" was cited in a @nytimes.com piece today. Check it out in the gift article linked below. #ResearchMatters #CivicResearch #Data #Criminology www.nytimes.com/2025/09/29/b...

“Broken Windows” isn’t legit and neither are these troop deployments to our cities. Communities need support & services, not troops, to reduce crime.

Vote yes on California Proposition 50!
