Fact-check: true 😕

And here you have it.... The Senate Dems who voted to end the shutdown without extending ACA subsidies took in a third of airlines’ PAC-driven election spending last year. levernews.com/airlines-fav...

Tonight was a very bad night.

"After listening to the public comments and discussing the 287(g) MOU with City Council members and the Mayor of Center Line, the City Manager has determined that it is in the City’s best interest to withdraw its MOA with ICE." WE DID IT!! That's the power of the community when we stand together!

This really hasn’t gotten enough attention this week. @wired.com #ICE www.wired.com/story/fbi-wa...

MDR was made aware that Centerline had entered into a 287(g) agreement with ICE. Yesterday, we packed their city council meeting to let them know exactly how we felt about that. www.youtube.com/watch?v=9PyU...

As we stare down the barrel of a prolonged fight to continue SNAP funding, MDR wabts to make sure everyone in our community maintains access to food, because we care about the most vulnerable of our neighbors. macombdefenders.com/food-resourc...

This is the president of the United States taking a break from gold-and-marble interior renovations to say he’ll defy a court order to feed hungry Americans. Nero would be proud.

This week, Texas filed a lawsuit against Tylenol’s parent company, alleging it failed to alert consumers. Later, Kennedy clarified that “the causative association between Tylenol given in pregnancy and perinatal periods is not sufficient to say it definitely causes autism." trib.al/TTCslz7

For those asking why so many of us are focused on the SNAP situation and pushing to get the facts out… 42 million people losing access to food right before the holidays could cause chaos like this country’s never seen before. People deserve to know who’s really responsible.

🤣🤣🤣

This is...alarming.

We had an amazing turnout in Sterling Heights today for our Macomb #NoKings 2.0 rally! Easily several thousand folks showed up to show this corrupt regime that their abuses of power will not stand!

I've got my sign ready! Who's coming with me?

California, this November 4th, the whole country is counting on you. Prop 50 puts our elections back on a level playing field, preserves independent redistricting over the long term, and lets the people decide. So return your ballot today. Vote yes on 50.

If you live in Michigan and want to participate in one of the upcoming No Kings 2.0 rallies, here's a list of every one in the state! There's bound to be one near you!

If you thought he would run this country differently than he ran his many failed businesses, you were sorely mistaken.

ICE’s raids echo Gestapo tactics—fear at dawn, families torn apart, rights ignored. America should never mirror the terror it once vowed to defeat. Compassion, not cruelty, defines true security.

More of this, please.

This evening, President Trump is ordering 400 members of the Texas National Guard for deployments to Illinois, Oregon, and other locations within the United States. No officials from the federal government called me directly to discuss or coordinate.

Bonta: Just minutes before the hearing, we got word that the Texas National Guard has been federalized. We asked the judge to issue a broad order — one that applies to every National Guard unit in every state — stating that none of them can be deployed to Oregon. She issued that order

Oh, this is too good, why didn't I think of this?!

He thinks he’s a king, but America has always been in a No Kings Era! #nokings #visibilitybrigade #taylorswift #powertothepeople @rinokings.bsky.social @dosomethingscne.bsky.social @indivisibleri.bsky.social @indivisiblenorthri.bsky.social @socoresistance.bsky.social @southcountyrising.bsky.social

Noem introduced Border Patrol Chief G. Bovino who claimed the protesters nearby were “an unsafe crowd” and declared “a free arrests zone” to arrest them all after one warning. Bovino: “They’re getting it here as soon as we leave.”

THE PURGE Polls show that Project 2025 didn’t resonate. Voters thought it wasn’t real. Well, now we’re living it and it’s already 47% implemented after only 9 months. Trump’s shutdown is a shortcut: gut the federal workforce, fire career experts, replace them with loyalists. Laid out in P2025. 🧵

so the US government just forced a tech company to delete an app it doesn’t like, which is totally normal stuff www.404media.co/iceblock-own...

History has many painful lessons.

Republicans shut down the government to gut healthcare and bankroll Trump’s illegal power grab. We must hold the GOP accountable for causing chaos just to appease a wannabe king. app.sosha.ai/s/WOTH3n5M

Done. I was also dismayed to see religious rhetoric as the second most prominently displayed statement on the page. Neither partisan propaganda nor religious statements have anything to do with HUD. Take that shit down.

Rieckhoff: A vet on CNN said we haven’t fought to win in 20 years. I said, I was fighting to win. You were fighting to win. Kander: That shit pisses me off. Rieckhoff: He said he meant the generals. Which one? It’s boogeymen—and now cosplay warriors who never served join ICE to bully immigrants.

Priorities.

Being a vegan IRL: The 👎🏻 is your co-workers bring in a pallet of "all butter croissants" and announce that there's tuna salad and egg salad to have with them. The 👍🏻 is being the only one who doesn't get food poisoning from the tuna salad and egg salad that gets left out of the fridge all day

Lawrence: One of the examples you've put out is in Speaker Mike Johnson's Louisiana district, a 60 year old couple earning 82,000 a year. Their health care premiums will rise by almost $20,000 by 300% because of what their congressman is doing.

Republicans own this shutdown period. donald you own this.

😎🌵🪴 keep up

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

NEW: Rachel Maddow drops unseen bodycam footage of feds coordinating the arrest of Newark Mayor Baraka. I REPEAT: the feds ordered his arrest even though he wasn’t breaking any laws. Federal agent: “We are arresting the mayor right now per the Deputy Attorney General of the United States.”

Oregon Governor Tina Kotek in Portland: "I will not be approving utilization of the Oregon national Guard. The President does not have the authority to deploy federal troops on State soil."

They do not have enough popular support. So they are trying to outlaw / silence opposition. And that’s where we are. Pushing back has never mattered more.

If you or anyone you know is wondering what is REALLY going on with the shutdown… Watch every second of this. I Promise it’s worth your time. #TrumpsGovernmentShutdown

Great low-impact cardio workout this morning! Thanks #GrowWithJo! Always thankful to be able to move my body. #fitnesssky #MultipleSclerosis

@abdulelsayed.bsky.social: "The president and HHS Secretary... literally just tried to tell us the most ridiculous shit and expect us to believe it... All of the stuff coming out of this administration is built for the narcissistic consumption of a very, very, very small headed man."

Trump’s tariffs mean you’re now paying a hell of a lot more for groceries.

I truly don't understand why we're not hearing more outrage from *anyone* in Congress or the Senate about this. Or why the Supreme Court isn't stepping in to uphold its rulings on the matter.

David Letterman is right: you can't appease a tyrant.

“I know it’s scary and I know that there’s a lot of doubt, but now is the time for us to find our heroism.” @markruffalo.bsky.social hopes to see you in the streets on October 18: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i... #NoKings
