It's that time of year again. Fuzzy catto cocoon time. Warm. Sleep sweet babies. Love you all forever. Hugs 💤💙💤

You’ve probably heard but I have been federally indicted by Trump’s DOJ.

We now have to cover the costs of a campaign *and* a legal battle to preserve our First Amendment rights.

I think this tells you what you need to know about who is blocking food to American families and keeping the government shut down. ⬇️

Neguse: "Does anyone here not believe that with one phone call from Speaker Johnson -- one phone call to the president or the secretary of ag -- that those funds would be released tomorrow? And that families wouldn't go starving by the weekend?"

"To any governors or state legislators out there... if you are in a position where you have the power to redraw your maps... if you have the ability to meet this moment with the urgency that it deserves, I'm calling on you to do exactly what we're doing in California and to fight fire with fire."

Zohran Mamdani is the bright future of the Democratic Party — brimming with excellent ideas about what working families need.

I was delighted to chat with him earlier today.

If you're a New Yorker, don't forget to cast your vote for him by Tuesday, Nov. 4.

HAPPENING NOW: Portland Police Commander Franz Schoening testifies that federal officers on Oct. 18 barraged protesters with crowd control munitions — not because of any violence but because another federal officer accidentally shot tear gas onto the roof of the ICE facility.

Twotone wants to wish YOU a happy International Cat Day!

Trump turned a visit with US troops in Japan into another campaign rally — disgracing the role of Commander in Chief & using our military as political props.

This from the guy who dodged Vietnam and called our troops “suckers and losers.” What a disgrace. www.msnbc.com/rachel-maddo...

This is how our government has been corrupted:

1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office
2) Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor
3) Donors make huge profit
4) Repeat

We must get big money out of politics.

It is the root of our dysfunction.

A president who routinely gives orders attempting to rewrite history, is a president who's planning to commit atrocities.

If Stephen Miller had paid attention in con law, he’d know:
Congress controls the money.
Courts interpret the law.
The president doesn’t get to shout “You’re fired!” at the entire civil service when he loses a budget fight.

Remember: The richest 1% evade over $160 billion in taxes every year.

That amount would fund SNAP for a year with money to spare.

Ask yourself who the real freeloaders are.

My wife just described a couple as “Dilbert skinwalkers” and reader, I jumped for my phone so fast to post this.

Too many Americans either didn’t care or didn’t believe. Hopefully they do now.👇

Letting 42 million Americans go without food this weekend—half of whom are children—is WRONG and a CHOICE.

The funds are there, but the White House is trying to leverage hungry kids for a political agenda. Mr. President, American lives are not a political game, and we are not here to play.

Amazon just announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year.

UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year.

Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M.

This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

Peanut, a ginger and grey lop rabbit is sat on concrete. He is sniffing intently with his head tilted up slightly.

No thoughts here, only floof.

🚨Wow - this will be huge if it bears out. Exit polls show the pro-EU D66 party has WON the Dutch election.

The far-right PVV party of Geeet Wildsrs has lost 12 seats, according to exit polls.

Huge if true.

Pennsylvania has an important Supreme Court race coming up on Tuesday, November 4. If you live in the Keystone State, or know someone who does, vote YES to retain three justices who will protect your fundamental rights and freedoms.

No, I think he knows he's lost this election. He's not running for Mayor anymore. He's running to convince the far right to accept him so he can still be "relevant."

oh just straight up gutter racism!

I'm tired of writing this, but this, and this alone, should be enough to impeach and remove any president.

Breaking on MSNBC:

Two federal prosecutors have been placed on leave at the direction of the White House after filing a sentencing memo seeking 27 months in prison for a pardoned Jan. 6 rioter who brought illegal guns and ammunition to President Obama's house in 2023.

I called my Senators, Lujan and Heinrich and my rep Melanie Stansbury today. Yes we are suffering, but to cave would make it for nothing. We already know from Schumer’s first capitulation that Republicans are liars. They are feeling the pain too and we should not negotiate with insincere people.

Speaker Mike Johnson is perpetually trying to deceive people. He uses his milquetoast speech and persona to mask his determination to ruthlessly cause harm. He wears his “Christianity” on his sleeve as a decoy from his evil intentions. He is not a good person, he just tries to play one on TV.

Republicans flee from truth like vampires from sunlight. This was not a "picnic".
