They're the ones making our neighborhoods unsafe. They're the danger to our children. They're the threat to law and order.

NEW — I dug into the story of ICE abducting a 13-year-old boy in Massachusetts and moving him 500 miles across state lines without notifying his mother, local cop's complicity, and how the federal government's justification for such cruelty is already falling apart:

Guess we have to go with “Kings”, then? 🤡

"You will only get paid if you kiss His Majesty's ring" is an interesting hill to die on, but I say go for it.

Is it typical that multiple Governors and Senators openly say that the President has dementia?

It's been 22 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. At what point will political reporters start calling this a constitutional crisis?

He would rather shut down our government than have you see the truth. It's not complicated.

This deserves more attention. North Carolina wiped out $6.5 Billion in medical debt for 2.5 million residents. Less than 1/3 of what we paid to bail out Argentina. www.carolinajournal.com/nc-program-w...

Boom! Who’s winning the shutdown debate? THE ACA. More Republicans than Democrats use the ACA marketplace. So the GOP’s base is relying on the same program their party is causing premiums to skyrocket. 45% of ACA marketplace enrollees are Republicans, and most live in GOP-held districts.

“Dozens of prominent artists and cultural organizations will participate in a series of artistic demonstrations to protest what authoritarian overreach by the Trump administration. The protests, known as Fall of Freedom, will take place on the weekend of Nov. 21...” www.nytimes.com/2025/10/14/a...

Trump didn’t light the fire overnight. He’s been turning up the heat slowly, hoping we won’t notice until we’re already cooked.

You gently run your hand through the rack. You can feel it—pure cotton, rich wool, Irish linen. The plump buttonholes are handsewn; the buttons attached with a firm shank. You flip the price tag over. It's affordable You buy the jacket and go home, which is only 15 mins away. Your apt is $600/month

I suppose this story makes my newsletter from last night even more timely joycevance.substack.com/p/are-we-the...

COLLINS: The Dept of Energy just canceled $1b for a hydrogen hub that covers Montana. Is that taking away good-paying jobs? SHEEHY: Of course it is. We want govt to be open C: But the Energy Secretary says he would've pulled that funding even if govt was open S: ... Well, that's unfortunate

NEWS The highest court in Australia has affirmed the government’s decision to ban Candace Owens from entering Australia. In 2024, the Australian government said that Candace Owens did not pass the “character test” to receive a visa.

Q: Politico reported on a group chat of young Republicans. Does this just reflect some bad apples? HOCHUL: Some bad apples? These are the future of the GOP. This is so vile it's hard to find the words to put into context ... there's gotta be consequences ... this bullshit has to stop.

It's really not about politics anymore. The apparatus of the Republican Party has simply become a haven for bad people. www.politico.com/news/2025/10...

ICE on Walgreens Property in Chicago grabbing another BLACK citizen! This isn’t about deporting criminals.

Trump is stooping so low that he’s gutting the federal Office of Special Education. Attacking students with disabilities is wrong. Every child in America deserves a fair shot at success.

That's twenty-seven flat-out murders. That's twenty-seven lives taken without even a semblance of a legal justification under domestic or international law. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/14/u...

Meiselas: MAGA Mike Johnson was being questioned about the shutdown during this disastrous press conference he held. He literally says, “I don’t have any strategy." Then Rep. Lisa McClain jumps in, apparently realizing Mike Johnson had just blown it and she completely unravels on camera.

ARIZONA AG: “.. Arizona’s right to a full delegation, and the right of the residents of CD 7 to representation from the person they recently voted for, are not up for debate ..” @politico.com #AZ07 www.politico.com/live-updates...

Well done!

Sad, but true. 💥

ICYMI: “And now, a response from the leader of the frog resistance...” 🐸 🎵 #Colbert

This is not just funny, it's smart. We need more of this mockery that shows these thugs that we see their despicable fascism and give them the respect that they deserve.

Buh-bye

As the Trump shutdown drags into its third week, it's clear Republicans are so committed to raising people's health care costs that they're willing to hold the country hostage to do it.

Billionaire tax cuts are a policy choice. Cutting healthcare for millions is a policy choice. Cutting food assistance for children is a policy choice. Taking from the poor and giving to the rich is a policy choice. Make no mistake: Trump and the GOP just chose to do this.

And they say the perfect cartoon doesn’t exist.

Millions came out for the last #NoKings protests. These will be even bigger. They want to scare people into not showing up. Show up. Exercise your Constitutional rights. Be in community with all those who believe in democracy.

War torn Portland. I am

That @JoeBiden put out this magnanimous & gracious statement AFTER all the horrible, dishonest things Trump said about Biden today, says so much about who Joe Biden is as a person. And reminds us all once again of what an utterly horrible, small, bad, & insecure person Trump is.

"I'm not ignoring facts anymore." Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene Donald Trump's dam is breaking. MTG is, albeit somewhat indirectly, saying publicly that the emperor is naked.

The Portland Frog army has now infiltrated Tulsa, OK and they’ve made an unlikely alliance with the T-Rex infantry and Sharks on Hoverboards mercenary forces. This is truly terrifying.

Things to do in the future: 1. Putting them all on trial for crimes against humanity at the Hague 2. Totally reforming entire government to root out corruption and abuse of power so this bullshit never happens again 3. At some point you’d imagine, brunch

Latisha James's rousing message to the administration.

Did Republicans give Biden and the Democrats credit for freeing more than 100 Israeli hostages? No? Yeah, thought so. Israel is playing Trump and MAGA right now. The entire world knows it except Trump and MAGA.

🚨BEST TROLL EVER!! Our guts still hurt!! 🤣

Train got in on time, which means I’m back in NYC to talk to @maddow.msnbc.com about No Kings! Nokings.org

Obama: "When you see an administration suggest that ordinary street crime is an insurrection or a terrorist act, that is a genuine effort to weaken how we have understood democracy."
