ProPublica obtained records from the Department of Agriculture that detail the 94 million pounds of food, down to the number of eggs, that never reached food banks because of the #Trump administration’s cuts to The Emergency Food Assistance Program. My latest video for @propublica.org.

Oh they’re scared, scared. We’re watching as they totally lose control of the narrative. Millions will show up at the largest peaceful protest in American history, because the vast majority of us know that the Trump regime is dismantling our democracy and America’s founding ideals before our eyes.

Home of the Brave launched a $1 million national ad campaign in support of the peaceful No Kings rallies on Oct. 18th. The ads will run in over 185 local papers and The New York Times, USA Today and The Washington Post calling on Americans to “peacefully protest our false king."

lots of jerking during Trump's handshake photo op with Macron

Here’s how tariffs work. Your costs go up, and that money gets transferred to the wealthy. Whether you’re progressive, liberal, leftist, libertarian, communist, socialist, moderate, democrat, conservative, Christian, atheist, Gen Z, Boomer… we have the same enemy. It’s the oligarchs. No Kings

New — Video shared with me shows ICE officers in DC detaining a man on Friday. Bystander filming asks man for his name. ICE agent lies and says he’s not allowed to speak to him “by law” and another says “We’ve arrested American citizens for being too close…If he gets any closer, put him in cuffs.”

Trump points at UAE official during photo op and says, "A lot of cash. Unlimited cash."

ICE agents blocked an ambulance that was trying to take an injured protester to hospital. "We are still not being allowed to leave by ICE officers.” an EMT said on radio When driver tried to get out, an agent yelled, "DON’T YOU EVER DO THAT AGAIN, I WILL SHOOT YOU" www.wweek.com/news/2025/10...

Make your plans for #NoKings. October 18th. Free speech is action. Please join in. You'll see me at one of the events. www.nokings.org

Considering that Trump has a doctor available all the time for anything, moving him from an annual exam to a 6 month exam is surprising.

This morning I ran the NYC Gaza 5K in Prospect Park for the third time, alongside the Harlem Run Club, to raise money for @unrwausa.bsky.social, which delivers critical humanitarian aid and services to Palestinians in Gaza. I hope you'll join me in donating: unrwausa.org

Horrible. Just awful. Cruel.

in 2011, the president of antifa hired me to give fashion consultancy to the organization. i recommended everyone wear navy suits with tan shoes, dress sneakers, and golf polos with slim chinos. if you arrested everyone today wearing these things, you'd destroy antifa

A diseased population is easier to control

In case anyone missed this Erdoğa said that Trump ended Halkbank’s criminal case after talks w him. He said that Trump told him “The Halkbank problem is finished for us.” Halkbank was helping Iran evade taxes and launder billions. Qatar and now this. The corruption is off the charts

Pediatrics has long endured a workforce shortage. Now the Trump administration’s crackdown on vaccines is turning a difficult profession into an impossible one. @katherinejwu.com spoke with pediatricians about the looming crisis their jobs may face:

I don’t know who needs to hear this but the CDC is being eviscerated right now. America is not going to have any kind of outbreak response capacity after tonight. Americans’ health data is no longer secure. Say goodbye to federal public health in any capacity. It’s a disaster. We won’t recover.

Federal workers being treated like the enemy. Horrible and unfair. www.bostonglobe.com/2025/10/11/m...

#ResistanceRoots Robert Gould Shaw was born on this day in 1837 in Dartmouth, Mass. Shaw commanded the 54th Massachusetts Regiment, one of the North’s first Black regiments. He died leading his troops in an ill-fated assault on Fort Wagner and was buried in a mass grave with the black soldiers. /1

If you’ve never been to a big protest like No Kings before: It feels great to be part of a big gathering of people who want to change things. It sparks joy, and resolve for the long fight ahead. Sometimes there are dance parties. You could be the one who starts the dance party! Just show up!

Something is seriously wrong in Moscow region of russia. The Federal State Enterprise "Scientific Research Center for Rocket and Space Technology" is... smocky.

It's really important to show up for each other in this moment. If you're in the area, I highly recommend that you come out in solidarity today. Meet some people. Make some plans. Do some organizing. Save some democracy.

Them Epstein Files got Little Mikey shook

Looking forward to when the next #NoKings protest in Portland looks like this

This is so important. You never know who may try to escalate things.

Kristi Noem, while governor of South Dakota, supplemented her roughly $130,000 salary by secretly accepting $80,000 donated to a political nonprofit she was affiliated with, records show. She never disclosed this income on federal ethics forms. (Published June)

The idea that everyone has intrinsic rights to life and liberty was a radical break with millennia of human history. It’s the moral foundation of America, Elaine Pagels writes—and it’s worth preserving.

Great ideas here.

What Governor Pritzker is doing is right for his state, but it is vital for the Republic.

SILS is one of the top library schools in the country. Not good.

At Umani Springs, this perfect world unfolds daily. Four babies – Mwana, Lenny, Sulwe, and Zigi – are being raised by their orphan mothers in the wild, but they also enjoy the presence of the same supportive human family that once raised their mothers as orphans. #WildBornBabies

You don't say: Fox & Friends admits “coffee prices are soaring” due to Trump's tariffs www.mediamatters.org/fox-news/fox...

I will not back down. Trump is now calling for the arrest of elected representatives checking his power. What else is left on the path to full-blown authoritarianism?
