It was a bit overcast in LA, and no Aurora Borealis, but this is literally what my eyes awoke to this morning.

20 to 24 years old unemployment is at 9.4%! - Ruhle, MSNBC No president wants a lot of young people with nothing to do but protest you.

I'm not saying there aren't plans, but Trump's most recent potential policies include: - 50-year mortgage - No insurance health care - Invading *checks notes* Venezuela - Getting nothing from China trade - Lying about affordability - Blocking SNAP at all costs - Inflationary stimulus checks FFS

I see the Dems' strategy now. The Senate will pass ACA credits, etc. And Mike Johnson will block it in the house. They will then drag house Republicans for this and the affordability issue through to the 2026 elections. The #1 & #2 issues. Winning the house can neutralize Trump.

Unbelieveable.....he is a wrecking ball to logic and sensibity. His policies spin like weather vane in a storm.

Was this a strategic move by the Dem Senators? Being the party that reopened the government knowing the GOP will never have a house vote and carrying that betrayal of needy Americans into 2026 along with Trump's horrible economy.

What is not a mystery to me is why the Democrats in the Senate folded. Since Citizen's United, our politics has been heavily influenced by the rich. Musk's blatant interference is the most stark example. They caved not for their constituents but for the donors. They got paid, and we got played.

This is a desperate lie from a pathetic president. 1- He won't do it as he didn't send DOGE checks. 2 - He can't do it as it would be a socialist move, and MAGA would revolt. 3 - He shouldn't do it as it will drive the same inflation as Biden, but it would be to save his presidency and not lives

His disdain for the less fortunate or weak is like Hilter's.

📣 Save Democracy Plan for 2028 The state of CA pays approximately 0.6 % of CA Dems to move temporarily to specific areas in Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania to flip the Electoral College (2024 results). Pennsylvania 19 EV w/120,267 Michigan 15 EV w/80,104 Wisconsin 10 EV w/29,398

With all his aggressive actions and distractions, Yam has whiffed affordability pitch. He is now back on his heels again, like his first term, lying while defending why nothing gets done in his administration. I suppose we will have many "Affordability Weeks" coming. FFS

Why does anyone entertain Trump ideas, his track record is horrible: - COVID-19 will go away before Easter - DOGE - Shutting USAID - Tariffs - Eliminating due process - Kidnapping citizens - $75B for ICE - Bombing Iran - Exploding Venezuelan boats - Shutting th Government - Not funding SNAP

I've seen this in varying forms in social media recently, and I'd have to say it is one of the more authentic observations I read recently. So true.

In the most circuitous route imaginable, Yam has landed on Universal Health Care. It's precious...

I wonder how red states would feel about a "California First" policy that leveled tariffs on the fresh food and vegetables we grow to feed 66% of the nation?

Why is the media pretending it's all ok? Where the F is Jake Tapper, now?

Oh,... look at that. Yam is taking a lot of hits.

LOL....they can't save themselves no matter how hard they try. This administration is hated "like no one can believe!"

I could hear the cheers coming from Irvine as their district will be separated from Huntington Beach, who will now have a gay House Rep.😁

There is the cult, and then there are the cult enablers. This is what the enablers saw: “Lame duck status is going to come even faster now, Trump cannot turn out the vote unless he is on the ballot, and that is never happening again.” The cult, however, will see it as Trump tells them to see it.

Congratulations CA you've finally let go of your altruism and single issue issues and passed Prop 50. Now, let's fight! Build coalitions, peacefully protest, and starve the oligarchs by not buying from them.

I'd like to thank Greg Abbott for instigating the passing of CA Prop 50. Best of luck, Greg, and remember everything Trump touches dies.

Big Beautiful Blue Wave!

"I fear all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve." - Republicans after this day is over. The sleeping Blue & Independents have awoken from 2024 and are coming politically for the president. He can't build that bunker under the east wing fast enough.

I've lived my whole life in California, and I've never had the joy of: - dress in layers - start the car early to warm the engine - shovel driveways or salt sidewalks - clear roofs - keep a mudroom - drain outdoor hoses - learn to walk carefully on ice Have I missed out?

Couldn't find the money for SNAP on Friday, but it can apparently on Wednesday, and 9 of the top 10 SNAP states voted for him.... Louisiana Oklahoma Alabama West Virginia Mississippi Kentucky Arkansas Pennsylvania Tennessee

This is the sequence: - Republicans working with Democrats - The Tea Party working against Democrats - Trump working against Republicans - Trump+MAGA defeat Republicans - MAGA fascists vs the US & Canada

Americans have a "Trump Card" to stop this tyranny. It also works on politicians, businesses, and oligarchs, and we don't have to wait until the next election. We saw it work against Musk, these people's decisions are driven by money...our money. They are our puppets. Use the boycott!

MORE: Taxes to fund SNAP and Medicaid LESS: Golf trips, Ballrooms, ICE Agents

Republicans are getting their war in America. It's just not the violent one they wanted, and they are going to regret it; Trump, MAGA, and Christian Nationalism. What is working: - Mass peaceful protests (No Kings) - Suing the administration (Posse comitatus, Due Process) - Coalitions (Prop 50)

CA Prop 50 has deeper meaning than redistricting. Newsom is showing Democrats that coalitions bring political power that ultimately creates the changes needed. Not altruism or single issue voting.

Dr. Schill called out as a liar by the judge as he loses his case against TBN. U.S. Bankruptcy Judge Scott Everett, per Deadline, criticized McGraw for “not being forthright”.

This is what winning looks like!

He just now says he is opposed....and lies about it.

His tariffs are literally digging us into a hole...all the way to China....

Can anyone explain MAGA's loving the Nazis while supporting Israel at all costs conundrum to me, please?

Sure, Halloween is filled with monsters. But it's nothing like the Epstein Files

Just leaving this here... The Führerbunker was the final section of a larger underground complex beneath the Reich Chancellery, built in 1936 and expanded in 1944. It served as Hitler’s last headquarters during his final months, and it’s where he spent his last days before his death in April 1945.

Remember the threats to close institutions during the shutdown..it didn't happen. Fascists want you to believe they are in control, and their vision is the only vision of the future. Fight this! Well, Trump/MAGA aren't in complete control, and they can't out last a defiant population. R.E.S.I.S.T

Is this the "effective social media" that Micuck Johnhson was talking about last week? Blatant unsubstantiated lies about his perceived enemies. FFS, what an ahole the president is. And I'm a Giants fan

It was reaffirming to hear Snyder tell the audience at writersblocpresents in LA how frustrating "Both Sides" reporting has become. How media treats it like two teams playing. As if both teams are playing by the same rules and it's about a contest of parties. Rs are ignoring laws & constitution.

Thanks, SCOTUS. Your decision on immunity is working g out well.

The red pill wears off, and then you're left wanting for what you lost.

I listened to Timothy Synder last night at writersbloc in LA. One takeaway: live your life as a discipline, and do not allow tyranny to change what you do daily. The chaos is meant to force the fascist's vision of the US as the only vision of your future. Do not accept it, wear them down.

If we coexist with alien life on earth, it is likely they are not hostile, or we would have known it by now. Aliens probably avoid and study us as we would other animals in the wild. Avoid the dangerous ones because they will innately try to kill you or trap them and study them alive (zoos) or dead.

He is literally digging a hole...to China....

I've spent a lot of time in France and they do like to do things their way. A 9:30a heist is considerate and socially graceful.

Special shout out to Antifa's Inflatable Guard Portland Division. Great work this last week. They are hopping mad.

I am beginning to think I might actually get a check from Soros before getting a DOGE or tariffs check.

I understand Faceplant Guy will also get a check from Soros, so there is that.
