More than 2,000 employees could be cut from the Department of the Interior during the ongoing federal government shutdown if the Trump administration gets its way.

Great! According to this body mass index chart, I'm officially a Sasquatch!

Nothing says “alpha male” like lashing out over a tweet you don’t understand that still manages to hurt your feelings

The future of alligator alkkkatraz?

People claiming that the Epstein Ballroom™ is really just a cover for a bunker has me fondly recalling what Hitler did in his.

I don’t really think the framers intended for a president to have the power to slap a tariff on products from a particular country because he didn’t like a TV commercial they ran about him, but I suppose it is presently up to the Supreme Ct to decide how far the Mad King can go.

When the president is destroying national landmarks, murdering fishermen, raising prices because he's angry over a Reagan video, and kidnapping parents in front of their crying children is probably not an ideal time to have a lazy, completely incompetent legislative branch perpetually on vacation.

NEWS: Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes and Rep.-Elect Adelita Grijalva have SUED the U.S. House of Representatives in federal court in Washington, D.C. over Speaker Mike Johnson’s refusal to swear in Grijalva. Grijalva would be the 218th vote for the Epstein Files discharge petition.

I.C.E. is stockpiling weapons of war because the federal government is waging war on our neighbors and friends. The President of the United States has repeatedly referred to them as vermin and “the enemy within.” This is America’s future. Dark days ahead. 🇺🇸

The White House is asking people not to share pictures of the East Wing because it’s even worse today.

Listen, we can’t send this guy enough of our money. Most trustworthy investment ever.

ICE fired shots again, hitting a civilian and a U.S. marshal. DHS, once again, is claiming the man rammed ICE with his car. Let’s see how long before that version of events unravels. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

We can't ignore how much #Lyingtriciamclaughlin is trying to cover up that an ICE agent shot multiple people while using a gun to break a window Discount cartoon villains running our govt. Mini 4'10" Goebbels, Gnome barbie and BS blondi. Welcome to the Temu Dictatorship. youtu.be/xmTvv95QdhE

ICE agents have been filming and publicly releasing the footage of their arrests - please, ICE, continue recording and sharing your illegal kidnappings. I'm sure this will not in any way come back at these agents when the heads of DHS claim they never gave these orders youtube.com/shorts/iFhpc...

Fuck Peter theil, he's literally an evil mad scientist stealing money from our tax dollars to fund his friend Jim O'Neill's testing on "rejuvenation technology". Who are the test subjects? Us, if Jim O'Neill gets his way - Jim was just added to the HHS Dept by RFK Jr. youtube.com/shorts/SsuKX...

Join the General Strike US and prepare your community to strike back! 3.5% @generalstrikeus.bsky.social

How do we move on to strikes and effective tools for political change now that we know that millions of people across the country are in agreement? We can't just pat ourselves on the back for doing a big protest, we need to prepare for the next step.

Some of the best signs in DC for #nokingsday

Los Angeles came out in droves. #NoKings

This should be Time Magazine’s 2025 Photo of the Year:

Do you know what a group of frogs is called? AN ARMY

Hell yes, Pittsburgh. Love Yinz. No Kings.

#A_NewHope ✊

This is a blatant attempt to silence and isolate us. He’s stopping the trains, closing the freeways and firing live rounds into California. We will not be intimidated. We will not be silenced. #NoKings

No kid should ever have to protest or advocate for their friends’ basic humanity. But they’re standing up at No Kings anyway.

So no terrorism then?

ultimately, zohran mamdani is a reminder that politicians can be younger than 80 years old

I have absolutely no pity nor sympathy for Mitch McConnell, he’s one of the most evil corrupt beings on the planet who destroyed our Supreme Court and led this country to the disastrous train wreck we are in today.

Ronald Reagan said it. #NoKings tomorrow 10/18

It’s painfully clear. By refusing to swear in Adelita Grijalva, Speaker Johnson’s covering up Jeffrey Epstein’s global sex-trafficking ring. Hey GOP: Bring back the House, cancel your health care cuts, reopen the government and release the files.

Make it make sense. [Cartoon by Adam Zyglis]

Cuomo had better learn how to say “Mayor Mamdani” correctly, because he got smoked last night.🔥

An ICE agent, who is being arrested for drunk driving and nearly killing his little kids & others, tries to stop the arrest by racially profiling the officers arresting him. Amazing to watch the courtesy given to him as he is belligerent and uncooperative

Mike Johnson has now had the House adjourned for 74 out of the last 86 days. They have worked 12 days in 3 months. Epstein Shutdown.

If anyone's wondering how this is possible, the answer is these strike teams are moving terrifyingly fast. Grab first, ask questions later. We were about 8-15 minutes behind them today for several hours. They're jumping out of vans, chasing people across lawns, taking them from bus stops, etc

"Admiral Holsey had raised concerns about the mission and the attacks on the alleged drug boats" Trump is mass-murdering on the open sea. Illegal & immoral. Reps & enablers are 100% responsible for all of Trump's actions. He has no immunity from unofficial acts & others have none at all.

This sounds familiar.

Maybe Johnson should be working for his constituents right now. I don't know what he's doing. I keep seeing his political stunt videos. He should be in his office. He should be working or in the district for his constituents.

Swearing in isn’t some ceremony. You aren’t a member of Congress until it happens. He knows that. No phones, no staff, nothing. I had to escort her into the Capitol on Wed bc Capitol police must treat her as a public visitor until she’s sworn in. And solo visitors aren’t allowed during shutdown!

Pritzker: "Stephen Miller is clearly ordering people to break the law. So he should know that yeah, it may be three years from now that he is held accountable, but I think it's important for them to know that whatever they do now, it's not like we're going to forget."
