Sen. DURBIN: We need to support law enforcement and policies that improve—not erode—trust between them and our communities. I will not sit idly by while this President tramples the Constitution.

This emotional speech is a reminder to our elected officials like Gabe Evan's that their actions have real consequences on real people. On their constituents that they swore an oath to protect.

Good. Anyone else?

NEW YORK… ICE puts a photographer in the hospital… Completely out of control

President Teddy Roosevelt: "speak softly and carry a big stick" Hegseth: 'Speak like a complete lunatic and smack yourself in the nuts with a skateboard'

a third moment of calm is essential today

Every US military commentator I've watched today is just tiptoeing around the fact that the king is obviously mad, and is almost certain to order them to do insanely bad things.

🚨🚨🚨 The Broadview Fire Chief just told HLS that the fence they installed without a permit or authorization poses a risk to those the fire department serves; that they removed the fence to preserve the lives of their community. 💥

AOC: When everyone says makes an exception here or makes an exception there, and then before you know it, you have masked agents roaming the streets of this country that do not feel entitled to identify themselves

"'Someone who says I’m against abortion but is in favor of the death penalty is not really pro-life ... Someone who says I’m against abortion but I’m in agreement with the inhuman treatment of immigrants in the United States, I don’t know if that’s pro-life.'" www.ncregister.com/cna/pope-leo...

AOC: "We are here to help people. We are here in the midst of this destruction of the federal government, the federal safety net, a trillion dollars eviscerated from people's health care, medicare, medicaid — with prices skyrocketing and life becoming untenable for Americans."

FUCK THIS DUDE!!!!!! 🩸🩸🩸 I'm going to post this video every day so we never forget what the 34x POS convicted felon who incites political violence, adjudicated rapist & pedophile Trump did 🩸🩸🩸

@chrislhayes.bsky.social reports from Chicago: "Nothing about this city feels like a war zone—to use this city and others like it as a "training ground" is dangerously deranged."

When are all the terrified people who know this is wrong but think they can just wait out the next three years going to wake up and take their heads out of the sand?

Me thinks PHAT BOY needs to shed a few burgers!

⚠️ A growing number of US adults report cognitive disability, with a doubling of reported cognitive impairment in young adults aged 18-39. (The study doesn’t mention COVID, but one hopes that the impact of COVID infection will be a focus of future research.) news.yale.edu/2025/09/24/g...

AOC: I think there's two things that are happening at once: One, there absolutely is an unprecedented abuse of power, destruction of norms, erosion of our government and our democracy in order to prop up an authoritarian style of governance However, they are weaker than they look…

Great question.

“To our enemies: FAFO” (holds for applause that doesn’t come) Cringey awkward moment as Hegseth summons all 🇺🇸 generals to hear him do a one-man show about how strong we are

So after over 8K complains of sexual assault in the military in 2024 alone, Unqualified Pete Hegseth declares his answer: “No more anonymous complains... no more walking on eggshells.” Just like Trump, instead of addressing the problem, he is silencing the victims.

I can’t believe I’m watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES I know we are “used to it” but it is absolutely insane

Kevin Ryan @kevryanforillinois.bsky.social

The president said, in a televised speech, that he's sending his new, less restrained, more violent military into US cities to practice their brutality on immigrants and minorities, to better train them to apply that brutality to other countries. He said this out loud.

“There will be no federal takeover of Portland, Oregon.” 🔥 👀 Damn — @bynum.house.gov is. Not. Playing. Around.

Neguse: "I would challenge anyone to make sense of the rantings and ravings you just heard from the president. These are not serious people tweeting out offensive videos last night on Truth Social ... I think it's important for all of us to acknowledge what we see with our own eyes"

Our "leader" just told our Secterary of Defense, "we should use some of these dangerous cities as training grounds for our military." This should be enough for people of any political view to wake up. Proving yet again, IT'S A CULT!

This is Steven Millers America 👿👎🏽👇🏼💙

Republicans don’t need a single Dem vote to keep the government open. Yet here is the banner at HUD today.

JUDGE McELROY: It’s “yet another case where the administration is saying … I’m going to do what I want to do and not what the law says and make the court make me.” @politico.com #FEMA @kyledcheney.bsky.social www.politico.com/news/2025/09...

This is so scary.

Where have we seen this before?

Absolutely LOVE this‼️ Awesome clapback‼️ 😍🤩👏🙌

Dock pay of Republican members of Congress who are staying away from work in DC, some even vacationing, while they allow a government shutdown and healthcare premiums to rise. MAGA doesn’t even care about its own supporters. And Trump is too busy making nasty videos & putting gold on the walls.

Jayapal: It is a strange and bizarre time when we literally have a president thinking about plating the ballroom in gold—while he’s thrown 15 million Americans off healthcare, fired over 150,000 federal workers, and is threatening to fire even more if we go into a shutdown.

😬 whoopsy. Freudian!
