ICE has arrested nearly 75,000 people with no criminal records, data shows

In line to become U.S. citizens, they were asked what country they’re from. If they were from certain countries, they were pulled out of line. Just horrible. The very antithesis of what America is. Every Republican should lose in 2026 bcuz of this. Every single one.👇 www.wgbh.org/news/local/2...

Despite outrage from doctors, the CDC is changing its longtime stance that all babies should be vaccinated at birth. trib.al/GOEMu9G Now the panel is recommending the vaccine—credited with preventing thousands of illnesses—be given only to infants whose mothers test positive or haven’t been tested.

🚨If you live in the shaded area or you know someone who lives in that area PAY ATTENTION🚨 Today is the LAST DAY to vote for @aftynbehn.bsky.social. Polls close at 7pm CT! A vote for Aftyn is a vote to feed kids, fix roads, and fund hospitals. Let’s get it done!!

This isn’t getting enough coverage. Republicans are now saying they will extend ACA premium coverage if access to abortion is reduced

This feels like a good time to remind everyone that the Ring camera is feeding data to “Flock”… an AI surveillance program that works with ICE. Between that and CBP monitoring your car and driving patterns, there is no such thing as privacy anymore:

Mike Johnson claims the Epstein files can’t be released unredacted because they contain intelligence-agency material that falls under national security. ✅ Reality check: Jeffrey Epstein was a civilian, with no government contracts, nothing he did should ever be considered classified.

Seniors hit with 10 percent Medicare Part B cost increase in 2026

I feel like I’m taking crazy pills. There’s no vote required if he wants to release them! The only reason the house was voting was because he refused. This is an obviously cynical ploy and major news outlets are running whole pieces without pointing this out. He could release them tonight.

Trump axes plan to compensate passengers for flight disruptions.

AMERICA TODAY!!! FUCK YOU @Sec_Noem!!! FUCK YOU @ICEgov!!! FUCK YOU @GovRonDeSantis!!! FUCK YOU TO THIS ADMINISTRATION. If you voted for this and are ok with this, please help it make sense. If you are appalled by this, VOTE THE ENABLERS OUT I 2026. www.sun-sentinel.com/2025/11/16/s...

Schumer reached out to leading presidential contenders to try and mute criticism of the deal, calling Josh Shapiro, Andy Beshear, JB Pritzker, and Gavin Newsom While Schumer voted against it, the Dems behind the shutdown deal said the minority leader was aware of their plan. trib.al/ZdLbRJV

Odd that the DoJ is opening an investigation into the Epstein files since they said in July that there was no client list and nothing to release.

#StayReadyCrew I know some folks are on SNAP so I just wanted to put this out here. Trust and believe they’re coming after y’all again. I know it’s hard but please try to get a stash for your pantry and freezer. A little every month makes it more manageable. www.politico.com/news/2025/11...

Trump's name appears the most: more than 1,600 times. couriernewsroom.com/news/we-crea...

Dang. I was hoping we would hear news that he was coming back to SF.

Amendment which strikes section which “allows senators who were legally subpoenaed during the January 6 criminal conspiracy investigation to get millions of dollars deposited into their bank accounts at taxpayer expense” voted down by Republicans

OMG the Cincinnati Children’s hospital Pastor speaks after being detained for 73 days by ICE and he is a legal U.S citizen & they knew it when they took him & they’ve known it for all 73 days! He said the there are a lot of people in there that are U.S citizens & no crimes ever!

This is why you do not make deals with terrorists.

NEW: The US has deported a longtime Oregon firefighter who was arrested by Border Patrol while deployed at a major wildfire in Washington state. José Bertin Cruz-Estrada, separated from his family, is speaking out from Mexico for the first time: “I feel betrayed ... What am I going to do now?"

For the first time all year, Democrats were riding high and the regime was on the ropes. If Senate leadership’s goal was to demobilize and depress rank-and-file Democrats, they could not have played their cards better. This is why we’ve launched the largest primary program that we’ve ever run.

*stares off into the distance*

🚨 NEW: ADP report: U.S. LOST an average of 11,000 jobs per week in October 2025. Let’s compare, shall we: In 2024, the economy ADDED about 2.2 million jobs in 2024 — an average monthly GAIN of 186,000. From steady climb to sudden slide.

Khanna: And then it’s awfully convenient that those eight senators happen to be the ones who aren’t up in 2026—and they’re all consulting Schumer. People are sick of this. That’s why I called on Schumer to step down.

People are very aware of how the Senate “works,” and that’s exactly why they are so angry

Wednesday is Prince spaghetti day ANTHONYYYYYYY

@lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com They folded. For no reason.

Pretty sure it worked in VA, NJ, and NYC

One appeaser, Sen. Angus King, explained his decision with, “Standing up to Donald Trump didn’t work.” Well sure, when you prematurely fold rather than see a fight through, you fail. And why should Trump opponents vote for anyone who thinks standing up to Trump isn’t worth doing?

It is easy for Senate Democrats to disabuse us of that assumption — they just have to publicly make the popular call for new leadership.

I'm sure it'll go better in December

UPDATE: The Senate votes 53-47 to shoot down the Baldwin amendment to extend ACA funds for 1 year. A party-line vote with every Republican rejecting it.

The second special session of 2025 is over, with lawmakers agreeing to set aside up to $162.5 million to pay for New Mexicans' SNAP benefits if the federal government doesn't come through before January. buff.ly/6z5s5Hj

Oh wow. Who could've ever seen this coming? "Speaker Johnson won't guarantee vote in House on ACA subsidies" abcnews.go.com/Politics/liv...

We deserve a Democratic Party that is willing to fight as hard as we are. We need new leadership in this moment and to get there, we need a chorus of support for change. Tell your Democratic senators to call on Senator Schumer to step aside as Minority Leader. It’s time for drastic action.

Even if you don’t get coverage through the Affordable Care Act, it still affects you. When more people are uninsured, hospitals shift unpaid costs onto everyone else. This drives up employer health-plan premiums.

I wrote a bit more about that here: presswatchers.org/2025/11/the-...

Listen Kaine, Hassan, King, Cortez-Masto, Durbin, Shaheen, Rosen, and Fetterman. You're NOT gonna take away my 2025 election joy. We voted in that election for folks to FIGHT for us. That doesn't include YOU. YOU are what we voted AGAINST last Tuesday. So I'm gonna hang on to that.

They found billions for foreign deals but not for your healthcare. Hold them accountable. Flood the lines! 📱 (202) 224-3121

Please then vote Schumer out as Minority Leader. Or else this is just all talk. Put your words into action.

In response to this claim that the "strategy didn't work." The people were on our side. We were building momentum to help save our democracy. We could have won - the premium increase notices were just starting. And giving in now will embolden him. Things will likely get worse.

Tell them to vote "No" unless the ACA subsidies are extended
