Your regular reminder that we desperately need to overturn Citizens United and get big money out of politics. It is among the worst Supreme Court decisions in history. It corrupts our political system every day.

Thou shalt not let Trump “run” for a third term.

“If the West Wing is the mind of the nation, then the East Wing is the heart.” - former First Lady Betty Ford The East Wing is gone. Over a century of American history, reduced to rubble. All to appease the vanity of a corrupt authoritarian.

Absolutely no one spends $350 million on a remodel to a house they plan on leaving in three years. No one!!!

The East Wing was built in 1902 & rebuilt in 1942, long after asbestos was used as a fire retardant. So, I’m sure the White House took steps to prevent a known carcinogen from entering the air during the current willy-nilly demolition. Kidding! These irresponsible assholes don’t care who they kill.

!

A D.C. man has filed a lawsuit claiming he was detained for playing Darth Vader's theme from the "Star Wars" while protesting National Guard troops patrolling the city during President Trump's crime crackdown.

Following a vehicle is not impeding. These proud boy shits don't know the law and they think they can threaten whatever they want and no one can do anything. Newsflash you fascist fucks: you're not immune to prosecution for violating our rights. Justice is coming, you'd better lawyer up.

Tsk Tsk - a typo in a story on “education.”

Damn, since I never use services like Spotify or iTunes, I never get to cancel my subscription in protests. At least I got my jollies off canceling my Paramount+ and Disney.

Take care of what? ICE brings violence, criminality, and war to a peaceful city of Americans trying to live our lives. We are Americans, not a military target.

All of what we are witnessing to day is simply because we didn't issue the adequate punishment for January 6th. He should be in jail not at 1600 but he knew better than all of us that we had no balls to follow through.

Today, the White House Press Secretary told the country that this ridiculous damn ballroom is “the president’s main priority”…not reopening the government, not lowering the cost of groceries, not lowering the cost of housing, not lowering the cost of healthcare….building a ballroom

had a doctor's appointment today. I mentioned the COVID vaccine and she told me new CDC guidelines state the clinic is no longer allowed to offer it. I can still get it at my local Walmart but the clinic treats a lot of low income patients that may be inconvenienced by RFK Jr's fuckery.

“We have no idea what you’re talking about, or what Republican extremist fed you those talking points.” @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social tosses aside Mike Lindell’s *reporter*’s foolishness and explains how Republicans drastically slashed health care to give tax cuts to the rich.

Voters should pick their representatives, not the other way around. Glad to get the chance to talk to some of the volunteers and organizers doing the hard work to make sure Prop 50 passes. This vote will have critical implications, not just for California, but for our entire country.

Republicans can reopen the government at any time. Don't take away people's health coverage and Dems will be thrilled to reopen the government. federalnewsnetwork.com/government-s...

JUST IN: U.S. national debt hits $38 trillion for the first time

California is doing its part, let's see what other states and big cities can do. Let's go America.

Here is the source - which used government docs for their reporting: popular.info/p/ice-boosts...

The US government: Well, we might have zip-tied children and/or shot them with rubber bullets, but not the young ones! (not a joke or an exaggeration)

There was at least one kid that said a gun was pointed at him and they threatened to “blow his mom’s head off”

Brown and black youths are aged up for any mistreatment; 30 year old white Nazis are just kids who don’t know better.

The speaker of the house is a liar. I know that's not a new thing, I'm looking at you Newt. But now it's blatant, and even celebrated amongst the "right."

It was the easiest, one question, open book test in American history. And we are all suffering due to their failure. I will never forget, and never forgive the people who did this to us.

i will never understand how 77 million Americans thought empowering this was a good idea. our country was so lucky to survive his first term and he's much worse now.

Yeah, it was literally the New Yorker cartoon.

I still can't get over the Star Trek actors that speak truth to power. Unlike star wars having only the great Mar Camel.

Trump is rigging maps to build a Congress that serves only him, not the people. @AOC knows the power to stop him is in California’s hands—Prop 50 is how we fight back and win. #YesOnProp50

Updating my LEGO White House

Well, I'm pretty sure we reached 3.5% last Saturday. That means I can exhale, and focus on what's in front of me for a day. Hope in little pieces is better than no hope at all.

WE TOLD YOU SO! Did Kash Patel really think they would accept him? He was born in New York but MAGA still say.. 'Get out of my country!' as Kash Patel dares to celebrate Diwali www.rawstory.com/kash-patel-2...

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

We made the local news paper.

Trump spilled 1,600+ convicted criminals—many of them violent—back onto the streets; then declared via executive order that his political rivals were "terrorists"; then told his fans that anyone identified as a terrorist could be summarily murdered.... this is *exactly* what he thought would happen.

I want more people to care that SNAP benefits are being cut off on November 1. 40% of SNAP beneficiaries are children. This is callous and vile.

#Epstein #EpsteinFiles Even amongst the right wing, there has been much vitriol aimed at Pam Bondi and Kash Patel regarding the Epstein Files. However, it doesn't seem to compute in their brains that Bondi and Kash ONLY act on Trump's orders.

Raskin details how he tried to get unanimous consent today to force Johnson to swear in Adelita Grijalva, but the Acting Speaker Haridopolos "scurried out of the room"

So Trump bulldozed a third of the White House complex. And they’re trying to keep the photos off limits.

Precisely! The Real Reason For The Shutdown!
