A Pair of Billionaire Preachers Built the Most Powerful Political Machine in Texas. That’s Just the Start. Tim Dunn and Farris Wilks are poised to take their Christian nationalist agenda nationwide.

Like the Koch brothers and other conservative billionaires, Dunn and Wilks want to slash regulations and taxes.

Their endgame, however, is more radical: not just to limit the government but also to steer it toward Christian rule.

More Than 170 U.S. Citizens Have Been Held by Immigration Agents. They’ve Been Kicked, Dragged and Detained for Days. The government does not track how often immigration agents grab citizens. So ProPublica did. Our tally — almost certainly incomplete — includes people who were held for days without a lawyer. And near...

Americans have been dragged, tackled, beaten, tased and shot by immigration agents.

They’ve had their necks kneeled on.

They’ve been held outside in the rain while in their underwear.

At least three citizens were pregnant when agents detained them.

Thank you Congressman Neguse for laying it plain.

RIPPING US OFF: FBI Director Kash Patel met his girlfriend at Penn State this past weekend to watch a wrestling match—but his travel to the university stadium appears to have been on the American public’s dime...again.

Their intentions are clear we have to stand against every move they make to turn Trump into a tyrant, from military in the streets to desecrating our history.

The government has killed 32 people in 7 strikes with no evidence they were traffickers. The admiral leading the mission quit. If we had proof, they’d face a court, not a drone.

The law still applies, even to suspected drug traffickers, and right now, the Administration’s story isn’t adding up.

Artillery Shell Detonated Over Interstate 5 During Marines’ Celebration, California Officials Say

We love our Marines and owe a debt of gratitude to Camp Pendleton, but next time, the Vice President and the White House shouldn’t be so reckless with people’s lives for their vanity projects.

Finally came across video of an arrest at a #NoKings event yesterday. 🙄

California, this November 4th, the whole country is counting on you.

Prop 50 puts our elections back on a level playing field, preserves independent redistricting over the long term, and lets the people decide.

So return your ballot today. Vote yes on 50.

“No, Speaker Johnson — the No Kings rally on October 18 is not a hate America rally. In fact, it’s quite the contrary: It’s a love America rally.” #NoKings

Mark Kelly: “lf you are undocumented in our country, you cannot get healthcare from the Affordable Care Act exchange. You are not eligible for Medicare. You are not eligible for Medicaid. They’re just making that up. They just like to blame brown people.”

Republicans cheer and engineer shutdowns because shutdowns erode people's faith in government, and that benefits the corporations and billionaires who want to push government of the way, so they can amass more power and wealth.

Republicans can mock Democrats all they want, but the numbers don’t lie.

By a 17 point margin, Americans blame the GOP for the shutdown. And Americans overwhelmingly back extending ACA subsidies—71% in WaPo, 78% in the KFF poll.

We are fast becoming a banana republic, with two standards of justice. If you oppose the leader, you go to jail just for speech. If you're a loyalist, you get immunity for your crimes.

That's what happens in Iran - not the United States. This is a decision moment for America.

In a moment like this, when tensions are high, part of the job of the president is to remind us of the ties that bind us together.

Trump’s Biggest COVER UP Just Got BRUTALLY EXPOSED FBI bribery sting buried by Trump’s DOJ finally comes to light.

The new ICE song by Jesse Welles nails it.

ICE isn’t recruiting heroes, it’s recruiting the bitter, the rejected, the ones desperate for a badge to cover their failures.

Losers with power become the most dangerous kind.

It's going to take all of us to fight back against Republican redistricting efforts in Texas. I'm so proud of the Democrats in the state legislature. They have shown immense courage and are putting up one hell of a fight.

The body language alone speaks VOLUMES.

Gerrymandering undermines the power of marginalized communities by manipulating district boundaries to weaken their collective voice. For Black, Latino, Indigenous, immigrant, low-income, and other disenfranchised groups, this often means remaining unheard in the places where decisions are made.

What the DOJ Is Doing Behind the Scenes Read more here.

Please pay attention.👇

We cannot afford to leave our democracy in the hands of a process that requires this DOJ to act in good faith. We must act now to harden our election systems. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/what...

So much for that “line.”

Crockett: Earlier someone was talking about cities being hellholes. Los Angeles contributes almost 20 billion in taxes. That’s more than all states in this country except for four.

I just left the Everglades Immigrant Interment Camp. No, I’m not using their ridiculous name. It was a very tough to witness humans in those cages. Every Floridian should be ashamed that our taxpayer money is being used for this.

FBI launches criminal investigations of John Brennan, James Comey: DOJ sources

We’re approaching the show trial stage of authoritarian takeover

The most alarming step on the road to fascism, empowering unfettered ICE agents and expanding their ranks. No one is safe, especially in my minority-majority state of NM.

Warnock: If I'm honest, there are days when I have to ask people of my faith tradition as a Christian, are we reading the same book? 

The book I know says I was hungry and you fed me. I was sick, I was in prison and you visited me, I was a stranger and you welcomed me….
