🚨 “They put black people in one van and immigrants an another… Trucks and military style vans were used to separate children from their parents.” THIS. IS. HAPPENING. People need to see this. We all need to see it. Nobody gets a pass here. Please share with your networks. 1/2

Apple agreed with the Trump admin’s demands that they remove apps that helped people track ICE agents from the Apple Store: www.nytimes.com/2025/10/02/u...

“ABC7 spoke to Pertissue Fisher, a woman who lives in the building. She said ICE agents took everyone in the building, including her, and asked questions later….’They was bringing the kids down, too, had them zip tied to each other.’” It can’t happen here, you say. But it is happening.

I always pay attention to what stories People Magazine and other consumer media outlets cover. That's how you can tell that something has broken through the usual political and news bubbles. This horrific Chicago story has broken through. people.com/ice-agents-o...

This was always the plan. Project 2025 was Donald Trump's blueprint to seize unchecked power within the federal government and restrict Americans' freedoms. And he is implementing it right in front of our eyes.

BREAKING: The director of the presidential library and museum in Abilene, Kansas, said he was suddenly told to resign or be fired. He refused to give the Trump administration a historic sword from the museum’s collection.

BREAKING: Our client Mario Guevara, an Emmy-winning journalist detained by ICE in retaliation for livestreaming law enforcement activity, will be deported tomorrow to El Salvador. Mario and his family are being punished for his reporting. This cruelty is meant to stifle our free press.

BREAKING: Governor Pritzker calls for the removal of Donald Trump as President by invoking the 25th amendment. EVERY governor should stand behind the Illinois governor. Governor Pritzker also cited health concerns for the president. He is clearly not well. youtu.be/Dt4mrxNWQWs?...

I am so sick of John Thune’s lying ass. Republicans want 7 more weeks to do NOTHING and then do this shut down shit all over again right before Thanksgiving.

Welcome to the Trump Government Shutdown 2.0 Our job: Keep reminding people the GQP controls both chambers & POTUS so they’re too incompetent to govern The economy is shitty Grocery prices are ridiculous Military on our streets Loss of constitutional rights Tariffs are taxes

Welcome to the panopticon.

We need to pull the plug on 98% of AI.

Some good news. London is meeting legal limits for toxic NO2 pollution for the first time – almost 200 years earlier than predicted – following the Mayor’s "world leading air pollution policies," City Hall announces. The Ultra Low Emissions Zone - and similar policies - really do work.

BREAKING: The full Fifth Circuit will be rehearing the challenge to Trump’s Alien Enemies Act out of the Northern District of Texas known as W.M.M. v. Trump en banc — putting off Supreme Court review. Previous discussion at Law Dork: www.lawdork.com/p/bondi-doj-...

Pew Research showing Democratic approval of their Congressional leadership now resembles Republican approval of their Congressional leadership in 2014, which historians might remember as the year before Donald Trump took over that party www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/...

You probably think Democrats are doing nothing right now, right? Would you believe me if I said that they are doing a 24 hour live stream about the effects of losing healthcare and the shutdown on every day people with personal testimonies? www.youtube.com/watch?v=2dm-... 1/2

BREAKING: A second Trump-appointed U.S. attorney has been disqualified after a federal judge ruled her appointment invalid. Sigal Chattah is out as US attorney in Nevada, just like Alina Habba in NJ: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Here's what the Democrats have been doing despite the long odds the American people put them in: www.wsj.com/opinion/chuc...

In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists when unprovoked — what would we call it? If federal agents marched down streets demanding papers — what would we say? Authoritarianism — let’s not pretend it’s something else when it happens in our American cities.

Latino US citizen unjustly detained not once, but TWICE. More Kavanaugh Stops in action👇🏽

EXCLUSIVE: Vulnerable Republican Rob Wittman was caught fundraising at an expensive D.C. restaurant instead of doing his job to stop a government shutdown. He also claimed Republicans were working today, but they weren’t on the floor.

I hope it's clear to everyone now that Trump really is going for it - he's trying to become a dictator. I don't know if he'll succeed, but he's working to install himself as an autocrat unaccountable to voters. And he's weaponizing the military against Americans who oppose him as part of that effort

Some *BIG* news for two major Arizona races: Republican Rep. David Schweikert will run for governor rather than seek reelection to his swing House seat.

Data from The Downballot shows that Donald Trump carried David Schweikert's House district 51-48 last year. Joe Biden took Arizona's 1st District, which is based in northeastern Phoenix and Scottsdale, 50-49 in 2020.

can you imagine sitting in that audience as a three-star flag officer — decades in the service, multiple post-grad degrees and a virtually unequaled level of command expertise — and being forced to watch this dunderheaded dry drunk give an off-brand jordan belfort seminar?

There is no bailout that will solve this problem. It took decades to create the markets for beans and months to devastate the markets for beans. NY Times: China Bought $12.6 Billion in U.S. Soybeans Last Year. [52% of exports] Now, It’s $0.

Kansas Republicans are moving forward with plans to gerrymander Democratic Rep. Sharice Davids' #KS03: The Sunflower State Journal reports that GOP leaders are circulating a petition to call the legislature into a special session. They need 2/3rds in each chamber.

The Democrats are poised to take back full control of the state of Virginia right now. That could change if we're not careful. Let's make sure to give our three candidates our full support! www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...

Indie director Barbara Marques has been kidnapped by ICE. She is legally married to a U.S. citizen & was at a green card mtg when she was abducted and prevented from seeing her lawyer. Her husband Tucker May does not know where she is. Please spread the word so he can find her /1

Check it out, by @mrwilliamjones.bsky.social. This week's Congressional Hispanic Caucus roundup, with the spotlight on newly elected, Rep. Adelina Grijalva from Arizona.

trump's numbers on economic policy are worse than bush/obama's during the financial crisis

The deciding Epstein vote and they won’t swear her in smh

From @mrwilliamjones.bsky.social www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...

When Rep. Raul Grijalva died, all eyes turned to his daughter, Adelita Grijalva. The family is very influential in southern Arizona and she immediately became the frontrunner in a contested primary. She won and now she can carry on the progressive family legacy! www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...

Grijalva: I was looking at the example of now-Representative Walkinshaw from Virginia, who was elected two weeks ago Tuesday. The following Wednesday—less than 24 hours later—he was sworn in, with unofficial results. So for me, apparently the rules have now changed in just two weeks.

BREAKING: Missouri Attorney General Catherine Hanaway (R) rejects a referendum that sought to let voters weigh in on the GOP’s extreme gerrymander, escalating the state’s power grab into a direct attack on Missourians’ constitutional rights.

NEW: The Supreme Court’s 6-3 ruling injects new uncertainty into shutdown talks and gives Trump the upper hand in a generational battle over the power of the purse. w/ @joshgerstein.bsky.social www.politico.com/news/2025/09...

The rule of law is dead in this nation. It's now what the king wishes.

Democrat Adelita Grijalva has easily won the special election for #AZ07, but her margin of victory may not be known for several days in a state where much of the vote is cast before E-Day. She leads 71-28 with AP estimating 80% counted: Harris carried this Tucson-based district by a 60-38 margin.

Susan, I hope I look as good as you at 102!

With most votes tallied in special election for Georgia's 21st Senate District, Republican Jason Dickerson beats Democrat Debra Shigley 61-39. Trump carried this seat 67-33, so Shigley improved 11% on Kamala Harris' margin here.

Bobby Cain, died yesterday, at the age of 85 in Nashville. Cain never sought the spotlight. He was a teenager thrust into history’s storm. But his quiet courage carved a path for others and his story remains a vital, part of America’s civil rights legacy. open.substack.com/pub/advocacy...
