Never thought I would live to see the day that something like this would go on in America.

Trump news at a glance: Funding for Democratic states frozen as president uses shutdown to punish opponents The vice-president said the administration would be forced to resort to layoffs if the shutdown lasts more than a few days. Key US politics stories from Wednesday 1 October at a glance

The fuhrer’s regime froze $26 billion for Democratic-leaning states, following through on a threat to use the government shutdown to target Democratic priorities.

Because, you know, he cares about every American.

Petty little f*ck.

Jack Ciattarelli’s campaign got their hands on Mikie Sherrill’s unredacted military records illegally.

Sherrills statement on the shutdown:
Sherrill Slams Republican Government Shutdown
Washington Republicans have once again shown they're willing to turn their backs on the American people in order to blindly follow Donald Trump's demands. Instead of working with Democrats to lower costs, protect health care, and support working people, Washington Republicans bent the knee to Donald Trump, shutting down the government in the process.
New Jersey families and the American people deserve far better. Washington Republicans must come to the table immediately to find a bipartisan consensus on a plan that reopens the government, keeps costs from rising even higher, and extends critical healthcare tax credits that working families rely on.

@mikiesherrill.bsky.social is standing firm against the Republican cruel Big Ugly budget scheme to rip away healthcare & drive up costs for millions of us.

While Republicans stand for billionaires, Mikie is fighting for NJ families to keep their coverage & to lower costs.

My 2 cents:

Mike Johnson is a religious zealot.
There are LOTS like him in the highest echelons of gvt.
They all have Dominionist leanings.
This is no longer about political ideology, but about RELIGIOUS ideology.
They are DESPERATE we become a theocracy of THEIR beliefs.
NOTHING. ELSE. MATTERS.

🎧 The Trump regime illegally leaked Mikie Sherrill's unredacted military file to Jack Ciattarelli’s ally, putting her private information at risk.

Opinion | This Is What Autocrats Dread

Great Read!

From the Jim Crow South to the 2023 Polish victory over autocratic rule, history teaches and inspires.

Authoritarians are not invincible. When countered by a sustained, unified, HOPEFUL opposition, autocratic movements CAN be defeated!

Massive immigration raid on Chicago apartment building leaves residents reeling: 'I feel defeated' The Department of Homeland Security said federal agents with Border Patrol, the FBI and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives arrested 37 people in the raid.

From the story:

…he was left tied up outside the building for nearly 3 hours before agents let him go.

β€œI asked why they were holding me … an American citizen. They said I had to wait until they looked me up. I asked if they had a warrant & I asked for a lawyer. They never brought one.”
