Same.

If your government thinks the Pope “doesn’t know what he’s talking about” when he defends migrants’ dignity, the world should see the warning sign. The US is no longer leading on human rights. It’s suppressing them.

Republicans getting ousted for becoming the party of fascism... 👍🏻

😂

The DC Sandwich Thrower''s trial started today. His lawyers say it's retaliation since the CBP agent hit with the sandwich was not injured. The federal agent who shot Rev. David Black with a pepper ball at point-blank range faces zero charges. A sandwich gets more accountability than a cop.

Zohran Mamdani, the 34-year-old progressive with a commanding lead in the New York City mayoral race, has placed universal child care at the center of his campaign, returning to it again and again as one of a few key policies that could redefine what City Hall delivers.

The far right want you to believe that immigration causes an explosion of crime. It's simply untrue. Crime has gone down - and crucially, we are a markedly less violent society than we once were.

Wow!

🚨 Our veterans spent months, sometimes years away from their families and friends to protect our country, our homeland. To see the angst they feel now, knowing what has been destroyed by this administration is worse than sickening or tragic — it is an abomination. They deserve SO MUCH BETTER! 💔 1/2

Without our poll workers and election officials, democracy could not happen. Thank you all!!

Cuomo, the man who resigned in disgrace after a state attorney general’s report found that he had sexually harassed nearly a dozen women, was asked if he had any regrets. He said he regretted not being better at social media.

Truth

Americans are soundly rejecting Trump’s out-of-control deportation agenda. Huge opening here for @democrats.org to go on offense with an affirmative case for immigration.

😮 Go, Georgia!!!

Snapshot of tonight: •Mamdani wins NYC Mayor •CA passes Prop 50 Redistricting •Maine votes NO on voter ID laws, YES on red flag laws •VA Dems Sweep statewides & pick up 10+ seats in House •Cincy reelects Mayor Pureval, beats JD Vance’s brother 78-21 Embrace victory tonight. Get to work tomorrow.❤️✊🏽

And they’re calling it—Abigail Spanberger has defeated Winsome Earle Sears & will be the first woman to ever serve as governor in the state of Virginia. Supermoon is high & bright tonight y’all, a sign of new things to come. 💙

Zohran is New York’s next Mayor. I’m so unbelievably proud of @votersoftomorrow.org’s New York City chapter who organized every single Gen Zer they could find to defeat Andrew Cuomo.

The backlog of defendants deemed unfit for trial keeps growing — average wait times for a specialized state facility have almost doubled. Even with more money and new programs, only a few are receiving the help they need each month. From @themarshallproject.org:

We've got reporters and producers out in the field today as federal immigration agents start amassing in the Bay Area. Follow us for more updates.

I will be following this case. Outrageous behavior by the National Guard!

YESSSSS!!

Virginia folks! Deadline for registering to vote is TOMORROW, Oct. 24!

Trump’s most loyal voting block, farmers, are not onboard with his latest betrayal, and they’re starting to speak out about his plan to artificially lower beef prices by importing beef from Argentina.

Two instances of our nations house being destroyed by our enemies.

Thanks to John Roberts, Trump gets to pay himself hundreds of millions in taxpayer dollars because, according to Roberts, the president controls all executive branch personnel and all of their decisions—and there’s probably nothing anyone can do about it.

Merkley: "What we've seen is that democracies no longer die bc men w/guns go in and take it over. Instead, it's electeds who erode the separation of power. If you have a rubber-stamp Congress & courts that deliver more power to the executive, suddenly you have an authoritarian state. It's here now."

The Oregon National Guard general says if they were to be deployed, they would be instructed under his leadership to protect the protesters and not ICE

🚨🚨🚨Chicago - NOW!🚨🚨🚨 1/2

🚨There goes the last of Governor Pritzker’s fucks. 🪦 He took that threat of being arrested to heart… and the people of Chicago are marching in the streets because the Chicago mayor and their governor have their backs. ✊🏼 1/2

Well this is big news for the wild world of renewable energy.

This $20 billion taxpayer-funded bailout is a life raft NOT ONLY for foreign crypto-scammer Milei, but also for Bessent’s bestie, hedge-fund manager Rob Citrone. “In early September, days before Bessent’s announcement, Citrone purchased more Argentine bonds.” open.substack.com/pub/populari...

Well I would hope so since she did nothing wrong. Although is this the point where he cries to #CorruptSCOTUS so they will say she must go because they are in the #EpsteinFiles also so they have to give him free passes for life? #ReleaseTheEpsteinFiles #orangepedo

A mainstream outlet finally does more than repeat the official BS statement from ICE about the shooting of Silvero Villegas-Gonzalez. This man's death should be a national scandal. Grateful for indy journalists who questioned the official narrative that corporate outlets mindlessly echoed last week.

I feel sorry for the judges who have to read the drivel written by Trump's lawyers.

Go, MO!! If the lawsuits don't stop the new map, maybe this petition will.

Yet somehow Donald Trump and JD Vance get upset when people on the left refer to them as fascists-and then blame those people when violence ensues

Understanding the complaint Maurene Comey has filed against DOJ, why it’s important for the Justice Department and beyond. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

Rooting for Abigail Spanberger... and I know my friends and relatives in VA will work around the clock to get her elected!! So important.

With a huge government funding deadline looming in 15 days, we’re reminding our Democratic senators that we expect them to hold their ground — not roll over like last time. Demand that your senators fight like hell against handing Trump a blank check: indivisible.org/campaign/car...

This…

Some personal news: I've been fired from the Washington Post in the aftermath of the Charlie Kirk shooting. Thread incoming. substack.com/@karenattiah...

JD Vance was supposed to go to NY in remembrance of 9/11, but instead he's going to Utah. I guess he thinks the death of one white nationalist is more important than the thousands of lives lost on 9/11. www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

As a parent, aunt, uncle, grandparent, human being—if you don’t feel for this young woman and see the injustice here, you’re dead inside. Deported to Guatemala. She’s an honor student, a track star. She doesn’t even speak Spanish. And this isn’t the worst story out there, not by a long shot.

“ILLEGALS” MY ASS! Green card holder Rami Othmane speaks out after being snatched off the street by ICE while driving to the grocery store. He’s a documented immigrant and the husband of Dr Wafaa Alrashid, chief of staff at a local hospital. He was locked in detention for 13 days.

Trump’s immigration blitz has reportedly extended to firefighters tackling a wildfire.

No wonder they are obsessed with pedophile rings. Their politicians are involved in them.

Dobbs was a warning shot, and LGBTQ+ people recognized it as such. Now comes the reckoning....
