This is fascism.

BREAKING: An FBI agent has been fired for refusing to arrest and perp walk James Comey. HERO.

"If more and more polls continue to look like the Washington Post poll, then that really does create pressure on Republicans. And I was heartened by Jeffries expanding the message."

AMERICAN SOYBEAN ASSOCIATION PRESIDENT: “We need access to markets (rather than a bailout), including China…” But Trump’s trade war is killing them

Senator Ernst hilariously says Trump is who will rescue farmers from the pain he is causing them 🧑‍🌾 🤷🏼

The least surprising news of the day.

Oh. Election denier and right winger Pizzagate TPUSA hack Jack Posobiec appears to have voted illegally - living in Maryland but voting in Pennsylvania. From Jacqueline Sweet at @slate.com and @marisakabas.bsky.social at The Handbasket: slate.com/news-and-pol...

KEILAR: A Post poll shows more Americans are blaming Republicans for the shutdown. Does that give you pause? MARSHALL: I discount that poll altogether K: Why? M: There are so many other polls that say the opposite K: Which one? M: I don't have them at my fingertips. That's a very biased poll

REPORTER: Do you commit to doing something to address the ACA subsidies so that insurance premiums don't spike for Americans? MIKE JOHNSON: Republicans commit to continuing the work we've already been doing (That's a no)

Sen. @ossoff.senate.gov on rural hospital closures: “We’re the wealthiest country in the world. Every community—rural, suburban, urban, Black, white, rich, poor—deserves world-class healthcare. That’s the bare minimum.”

Fox News's Chad Pergram: “How can you say that they take no pleasure in this and then in the next minute say, ‘Oh, they're just having fun trolling people?’”

Is his plan to bomb the remaining hostages?

Harry Enten: "Who do Americans blame more for the shutdown? They blame Republicans. The New York Times -- by 7 points they blame Republicans. Marist -- blame Trump and Republicans by 12 points. How about Washington Post? By a 17 point margin."

This was posted by the President of the United States—a job once held by Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln and FDR. Meantime, has the price of groceries or housing gone down for your family? How’s your kid’s job search going in the Trump economy?

Illinois State Police, acting on behalf of ICE, engaged in violent behavior against faith leaders, community members, and peaceful protestors at the Broadview, IL ICE facility this morning.

It’s all so depressing

Actress Lily Tomlin is joining Jane Fonda in relaunching The Committee for the First Amendment, an organization founded in the 1940s to defend free speech against fascism. Fonda’s dad was a member of the committee in 1947.

They will let him tell one ridiculous lie after another without pushback. He will demand that before agreeing to come on.

At supermarket this morning, asking my regular checkout woman how her husband is doing after his stroke, been home for 3months. Poor thing, he passed away. You never know how crap things are for others. So booked a plasma donation straight away. #GiveBlood

BREAKING: Apple has REMOVED the ICEBlock app from the App Store due to “objectionable content.” More billionaires bending the knee.

Gov is shutdown. Let’s see who picks it up this time 🤣

#80stop30 (29) Random order. 1981. youtu.be/pHCdS7O248g?...

CBS's John Dickerson has the best commentaries.

💔

Holy hell. DHS just openly stated that its agents use “reasonable suspicion” to make ARRESTS. This is blatantly unconstitutional. The Supreme Court is clear that you need probable cause to arrest someone, as opposed to stop them to ask them a question or two. This is huge b/c…

The thing that bothers me so much is not the “we have to enforce our borders and laws.” We do. It’s the giddy joy and celebration they have at the misery of people far less fortunate. Always punching down

🚨 “They put black people in one van and immigrants an another… Trucks and military style vans were used to separate children from their parents.” THIS. IS. HAPPENING. People need to see this. We all need to see it. Nobody gets a pass here. Please share with your networks. 1/2

Sanders: I am not a great fan of the affordable care act. I believe in medicare for all. I think that health care is a human right, but I will be damned if I'm going to see people in Vermont and around this country see a doubling in their premiums.

Tim Walz: "My god, we've got the White House threatening investigations and jail time because an escalator stopped? Walk up the damn stairs!"

www.axios.com/2025/10/02/g... The majority will vote about Kitchen Table Issues Look at Independents Look at the General public And wait till they get there Healthcare Insurance hikes And Utility hikes Vote them out Vote YES for Prop 50 California

Journalist Mario Guevara is being deported because the American government punishes reporters to protect its own power. We should all be outraged. freedom.press/issues/mario...

🚨Resources will need to be shared moving forward. Also, those who can donate to food banks or to facilities (shelters/low-imcome schools) directly, please consider doing so. feedingamericaaction.org/fy26-governm...

I am never going to forget this shit! youtube.com/shorts/R0A0G...

A Border Patrol Goon who deported thousands of undocumented immigrants was discovered to be undocumented himself.

Yesterday, we asked Illinois residents to contact their elected officials to ask them to stand up to ICE and join us for a press conference at Broadview this Friday morning. Guess what? It’s working. An alderperson just called me to let me know a constituent emailed her and she will be attending.

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen to Fox & Friends host Lawrence Jones: "In New Hampshire we do not provide health insurance for illegal immigrants, we have never done that, and you are just wrong."

It’s a shame that the September jobs report has been canceled. I’m sure it would have shown us how everything is going perfectly.

💯💯👊🏻

BREAKING: Our client Mario Guevara, an Emmy-winning journalist detained by ICE in retaliation for livestreaming law enforcement activity, will be deported tomorrow to El Salvador. Mario and his family are being punished for his reporting. This cruelty is meant to stifle our free press.

New protest card: SHOW ME THE MONEY! (17 TRILLION?)

The current state of shutdown politics

If you’re watching us from outside the United States, it’s pretty much as bad as it looks.

I never thought I’d say this, but I agree with MTG 100%. And for the record, I’m not paid for any of my opinions. Never have been, never will be.
