You have been doing very well Ali keep it up

The Vought Doctrine: Make it hurt It’s day five and counting of a budget impasse in Washington, but critics say characterizing this moment as a government “shutdown” is misleading. For months, Donald Trump and his budget director Russell Vought have taken a sledgehammer to the federal bureaucracy and are now using this moment to gut agencies and programs that benefit working and middle-class Americans, while conveniently keeping in place everything that benefits the wealthy. 

Russell Vought is not only Pres. Trump’s budget director but also an author of Project 2025, and he’s seizing this government shutdown moment to pursue his ideological drive to gut federal agencies and programs that benefit Americans. #Velshi

Chicago Alderperson handcuffed by federal agents speaks out as ICE escalates tactics Since returning to office, President Trump has sought to reshape Immigration and Customs Enforcement to fit his mass deportation agenda. ICE insists agents use a “minimal amount of force” when making arrests, but video footage shows otherwise. Now with Trump ordering federal deployments into Chicago against the wishes of local officials, Chicago Alderperson Jessie Fuentes says, “This is not about safety or security. This is about sowing division. This is about control.”

"What we are seeing is a clear escalation of ICE agents choosing to abuse individuals physically and abuse their constitutional rights," says Chicago Alderperson @jessiefuentes.bsky.social after being detained by ICE herself for defending the rights of a detained, injured constituent. #Velshi

YouTube video by MSNBC ‘Americans are angry’: Democrats rally across the country

"Perhaps if more Democratic leaders could meet the people where they are and emulate what millions of people are doing, by protesting across the country, that would feel authentic,” says Ali Velshi. “Right now Americans are angry and they want change.” youtu.be/g_NOgxtWnZo

Cute dog but enough already.

I dream if American finding the guts to fight Martino and remove him from office

The Dems should go overseas or into Canada

Senate Democrats urge U.S. to stop funding GHF, resume support for U.N. food distribution in Gaza as more starve Senate Democrats told the secretary of state they have "grave concerns" about the U.S. role in financing GHF, the main group distributing aid in Gaza.

Families in Gaza are starving to death. Meanwhile, Trump & Netanyahu are using US taxpayer dollars to replace international aid orgs in Gaza with mercenaries — leading to even more deaths.

ENOUGH.

I led 20 Senators in calling on Trump to stop supporting this barbarity:

RANDY BLYTHE: "Thank You OZZY. We Love You" - Metal Injection "Ozzy got to say goodbye, & he got to do it on HIS terms, with HIS band."

😭 As the world mourns the loss of Ozzy Osbourne, Randy Blythe shared a deeply personal message reflecting on Osbourne's impact — not just as a musical icon, but as a human being. metalinjection.net/news/randy-b...

Not seens IS. Fight the hell back. Americans are so dumb and weak.

The Administration Wants Military Women to Know Their Place Pete Hegseth seems to be on a mission to erase women from the top ranks of the U.S. armed forces.

"At this point, women have been cleared out of all of the military’s top jobs."

The Big Bad Bill ends Federal tax credits for residential rooftop solar but if you install it by December 31, 2025 you can still get the 30% rebate for the project cost!

Not really an overstatement to say that the test of a free society is whether or not comedians can make fun of the country's leader on TV without repurcussions.

Thus country is a sick cesspool

We’re one more revelation away from MAGA telling us that sexually abusing teenage girls is good, actually.

And yet overall approval basically unchanged. Once you get down to the low 40’s people’s approval isn’t really being driven by issues.

Why State Department employees say Rubio is a ‘mute accessory to Trump’ Important new reporting from Puck’s Julia Ioffe reveals what America's bruised diplomats really think of their boss, Secretary of State Marco Rubio. With the Trump administration’s cuts hitting the State Department, employees at Foggy Bottom say Rubio has become “the disappearing Secretary of State” and “a mute accessory to Trump.” Ioffe discusses who is being promoted up the ranks, including one “MAGA toddler” now leading HR at State.

@juliaioffe.bsky.social's new reporting for Puck News reveals what State Dept. employees really think of Sec. Marco Rubio: nothing more than ‘a mute accessory to Trump.’ But that may be the Trump Admin’s ultimate goal. #Velshi
