MAMDANI: I don't look to Andrew Cuomo for leadership

COLLINS: The Dept of Energy just canceled $1b for a hydrogen hub that covers Montana. Is that taking away good-paying jobs?

SHEEHY: Of course it is. We want govt to be open

C: But the Energy Secretary says he would've pulled that funding even if govt was open

S: ... Well, that's unfortunate

Kavanaugh really, really wants a time limit on remedies for racial discrimination. I really, really want a time limit on racial discrimination in America. But guess what

She's running for governor of Texas.

She's running for us. She's not running to keep the billionaires in power. (Greg Abbott is, tho.)

NO KINGS Top 10 Rally Reminders Lead with Love, Not Anger. Focus your energy on what you stand for, not what you stand against. Anger fades; compassion lasts. Look Out for One Another. Offer water, a smile, or friendly chat to someone nearby. Check on families, elders, and people with mobility needs. Smile and Greet Others. Say hello, wave, or share a word of encouragement. Small acts of friendliness build community trust and lower tension. Celebrate Families and Kids. Keep the atmosphere family-friendly, and invite children to join in with chants and songs-joyful ways to express civic pride. Lift Your Voice with Positivity. Joy is contagious. The more you smile, sing, and stay grounded, the safer and stronger everyone around you feels. Keep It Clean and Respectful. Leave our rally space as beautiful as you found it-or better. Treat it with respect, care, and gratitude for peace. Make Your Sign Speak Peace. Choose messages that uplift-creative, clever, values-based signs draw attention without aggression or profanity. Be Mindful of Words & Tone. Speak with kindness, even when disagreeing. Avoid insults, sarcasm, or chants that demean others. Model Nonviolence in Every Action. If confronted, breathe, stay calm, and step back. Do not engage or argue, alert a Guardian in an orange vest. Carry Joy Beyond the Rally. After the event, share stories, photos, and reflections that highlight unity and courage-show the world what peaceful power looks like.

Love your babies? Go vaccinate them. Don’t listen to RFK Jr. The brain worm is winning.

Winning! 😬

This current regime obviously doesn't train them as a normal federal officer would have been trained in previous administrations. I believe many of these are off the street proud boys. 🫤

Congrats Mike!
Great team of Young Republicans you’ve got there.
I don’t think it’s broadcast enough that Young Republicans have embraced rape, gas chambers and Jim Crow values.

This deserves more attention. North Carolina wiped out $6.5 Billion in medical debt for 2.5 million residents. Less than 1/3 of what we paid to bail out Argentina.

Florida Congressman Cory Mills ordered to stay away from former girlfriend She filed for the restraining order when she says Mills began threatening to share nude photos and videos with others, and allegedly threatened her future boyfriends.

I don't recall a member of Congress facing a restraining order involving a former girlfriend - for allegedly threatening to release nude photos and videos of her, but maybe someone has the receipts. Rep. Cory Mills R-FL in hot water again. www.wesh.com/article/flor...

Who thinks BLUE states should STOP sending our hard-earned taxpayer dollars to the federal government to subsidize RED states?

The Right’s Favorite Magic Trick: Turning Old News Into New Scandal John Solomon’s “discovery” about Jan 6 phone records isn’t a scoop — it’s a rerun dressed as revelation.

John Solomon didn’t stumble onto a secret — he recycled one. The Jan 6 committee’s phone-metadata subpoenas were public and reported years ago. This is how the right keeps the outrage machine humming: rename oversight as spying, erase timelines, and sell déjà vu.

WE SAVED ARGENTINA INSTEAD

This Supreme Court case in Louisiana is about one thing, and one thing only: reinstituting Jim Crow by way of ensuring that Black Americans are taxed without receiving representation in Congress.

Everything else is noise and bluster.

This stolen Supreme Court is going to send us back to the 1860s.

Listen to this nurse: when families can’t afford food or rent, doubling their health premiums will push them off insurance. Communities will suffer. People will die.

And what did Republicans do?
They shut down the government and took a vacation. #TrumpsShutdownDragsOn

Illegal snatch n traffic by ICE Gestapo! They r committing crimes like they will never be held accountable, but Taco’s reign of terror is already crumbling. These dumb fvcks aren’t even paying attention 2 what is happening on The Hill! #arrestice

He would rather shut down our government than have you see the truth. It's not complicated.

Seems like a good summary.

Donald Trump is NEVER winning the Nobel Peace Prize and he is NEVER getting into Heaven.

Inside FDA, career staffers describe how political pressure is influencing their work Current and former FDA staff said the level of involvement of political officials in nitty-gritty regulatory matters is unprecedented.

This is not how science is supposed to work: @lizzylawrence.bsky.social interviews #FDA staffers on how the agency is being asked to investigate issues of interest to Health Secretary Kennedy. “It’s like the tail wagging the dog.... Go find data to support this." www.statnews.com/2025/10/14/f...

Pretending to the world that you are the president of peace while waging war at home is diabolical.

Maybe Mike meant "stood on" Capitol Police?
