Our voting rights are under attack! 200,000+ comments have been submitted to the Election Assistance Commission (EAC) urging them to increase the documentation requirements for Americans to register to vote! This makes it harder for new voters to exercise their rights. voice.regulations.gov

If you live in: South Dakota Louisiana West Virginia Wyoming Tennessee Mississippi Alaska Call your right wing Senator and ask them why they're pushing to increase their constituents healthcare prices so much.

Most of the power authoritarians have is freely given. We should not comply with them in advance. Trump is far weaker than he looks. So is the GOP. We should draw them out, drain them at every opportunity, and fight for people’s wellbeing at every turn. We have been sent here to fight for people.

Pam got it right. All the way right.

Watch @markwarner.bsky.social set the record straight

Can we speed this up

We’re very excited to welcome @adamrose.bsky.social as our new deputy director of advocacy on the @freedom.press team! He’ll primarily focus on protecting local press freedom, so reach out if you’re a journalist who needs help.

The GOP controls the House and the Senate, owning both. The Democrats have pursued them exhaustively to avoid a shutdown to save Americans from the disaster that awaits us- #ProudBlue #DemVoice1 #DV1 #Pinks The GOP is officially THE ENEMY WITHIN. www.axios.com/2025/09/30/s...

I’m glad somebody has the cojones to tell the truth!

Our vision to become the epicenter of the quantum ecosystem is becoming a reality, Illinois.

We’re headed for the first shutdown since the last time Trump was in office. The framing of trying to give Medicaid to illegals is absolute nonsense. The average family of four is paying up to *$1500* a month on the insurance marketplace. Dems wanted to help. GOP refused.

Buttu also notes that while Trump met with Netanyahu before announcing the plan, Palestinians were not consulted. Buttu asks, “Why is it that Palestinians have been forced to negotiate an end to their genocide?”

AOC: "This is a fight over your ability to go to the pharmacy and afford insulin. We're not talking about just 15 or 20% increase in people's premiums...we are talking about a doubling of monthly health care premiums, not even including your deductible!"

In a 161- page blistering ruling, a federal judge determined that the Trump administration’s policy to detain and deport foreign scholars over pro-Palestinian views violates the US constitution and was designed to “intentionally” chill free speech rights. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

CHICAGO / SUBURBS If you want to know what it's looked like at the ICE facility in Broadview (Chicago), this brilliant photo essay from @almacampos.bsky.social & @pgoyette.bsky.social at @southsideweekly.bsky.social is a very good place to start.

#ProudBlue Just under 6 hours til midnight. What exactly are the RethugliKKKans doing to avoid a government shutdown? The convicted felon wants a shutdown and the GOP is going to give him exactly what he wants. The American people lose yet again.

BREAKING: A federal judge ruled that Trump loyalist Sigal Chattah has been unlawfully serving as Nevada’s U.S. Attorney since July. Chattah and her office are now barred from prosecuting cases — the second Trump-appointed U.S. Attorney disqualified within 2 months after Alina Habba in NJ.

Fantastic progress being made by Camden Council team in the pedestrianisation of Camden High Street. Removing the traffic has made it so much safer - and now the street is being made welcoming and fun.

Did you remember to explain how serious bone spurs are, Donald?

Yet RFK Jr doesn’t want pregnant people to get vaccinated. He doesn’t want to prevent these hospitalizations.

We don't tend to describe these assaults as "human rights abuses by the government" but that's what they are. The fundamental human right not to be subjected to arbitrary violence by the state is violated every time an ICE agent just hauls off and body slams someone

She is us. A young woman working two jobs, caring for her mother, calculating survival down to the dollar. She does everything right, yet it’s never enough. She is the bottom 99% proof that the struggle isn’t hers alone. It’s ours. And together, we deserve better. My newest article.

The blacklisting of the 1940s and 1950s comprised both public and private efforts. Counterattack began publishing just a few months before the first Hollywood blacklist began in the midst of a House Un-American Activities Committee investigation. Senator Joseph McCarthy announced his dubious list…

Use this video to explain the shutdown 😂

Gregory Bovino, commander-at-large of the U.S. #BorderPatrol, claims a @wbez.org/@chicago.suntimes.com report about his comments Sunday in downtown #Chicago was "grossly inaccurate" and taken out of context.

That's because Israeli citizens aren't allowed to pick their leader. They vote for the parties that form the government, and then the government picks the leader for them after it does enough deal making to form a majority.

Good news: “Longtime Pentagon reporter Helene Cooper said that she can't find any military officials who attended the meeting in Virginia with President Donald Trump and Secretary Pete Hegseth and liked what they heard.”

AOC: I think there's two things that are happening at once: One, there absolutely is an unprecedented abuse of power, destruction of norms, erosion of our government and our democracy in order to prop up an authoritarian style of governance However, they are weaker than they look…

Democrats Stand For Healthcare: Democrats are fighting for the American people – ensuring all Americans have access to affordable, high-quality healthcare while Republicans gut Medicaid, decimate rural hospitals and allow ACA tax credits to expire. #DonaldTrumpsShutdown

US farmers are saying they "just need temporary help, until things get better." Here's the thing. US farm exports- which are mostly soy- CANNOT get better. Other countries expanded their soy industries to fill China's demand. We've walled ourselves out of the global market, folks. This is it.

Federal agents arrested Southwest Side organizers as they filmed ICE activity, officials said. blockclubchi.co/3KNoJYg

The Democratic bill addresses the Republican healthcare crisis by reversing catastrophic healthcare cuts and permanently extending ACA tax credits. Meanwhile, Republicans would rather shut the government down than keep healthcare affordable. #DonaldTrumpsShutdown
