In response to this claim that the "strategy didn't work."

The people were on our side. We were building momentum to help save our democracy. We could have won - the premium increase notices were just starting.

And giving in now will embolden him. Things will likely get worse.

It is very weird seeing my friends and family slowly start to realize we're not overreacting.

If I were @schumer.senate.gov, I would not agree to help Republicans fund this regime on the "promise" of an ACA vote at a later date. It didn't work the last time when they promised to fund DC. It won't work this time either. The House won't touch it.

This is the food distribution line at Nellis Air Force Base in Las Vegas 11/7/25. This is what Trump doesn't want you to see.

Senate Dems, do not cave. Ensuring healthcare premiums don’t surge is an 80-20 issue. They want to gut the ACA because their disdain for Obama far outweighs their concern for anyone’s health.

Trump administration will provide partial SNAP benefits following court orders Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison co-led a federal lawsuit over the withholding of SNAP payments.

The headline you’re looking for is “Despite court order, Trump Administration denies 1/2 of SNAP benefits” , @startribune.com

Emphasize the fact that he is denying, rather than providing. And that the law spoke, and he only partially complied

People should not act surprised, especially the right wing and anyone who voted for Trump.

We warned them. They did not listen. And now they choose to forget.

Don't let them.

ICE and CBP Agents Are Scanning Peoples’ Faces on the Street To Verify Citizenship Videos on social media show officers from ICE and CBP using facial recognition technology on people in the field. One expert described the practice as “pure dystopian creep.”

New: Videos show ICE/CBP agents are scanning peoples' faces on the street to verify citizenship. ICE has tool to instantly look up unprecedented number of databases with just a photo

“I’m an American citizen so leave me alone”

“Alright, we just got to verify that”

This angers me to no extent! I am 16 years post surgery and chemo with BRCA1 mutation. BOTH of my male-born children are at much higher risk of breast cancer if either of them got the same mutation.

Fact: MEN are more likely to DIE of breast cancer because they think they can’t get it.

If you work for the Trump/Bondi Justice Department and tell the truth, you will be fired.

Federal judges should take note.

The GOP is literally demanding that Dems agree to a bill that only pays registered Republican government workers who are currently working without pay,

while not providing back pay to people the MAGA assholes think aren’t worthy of pay for their work.

FUCKKKK NOO!!

DEMS, DO NOT BEND AN INCH!!

The answer is yes. Just like Trump’s Azerbaijan hotel was a money laundering front for the Iranian Revolutionary Guard.

The Trump Action Tracker has had an update! Finer-grained domains, easier filtering, better views on a phone, to help make sense of 1600+ actions

This is an amazingly useful analysis of what is happening in US under Trump - and spilling into the rest of the world.

The East Wing Obscenity Trump's ballroom is a tumor on the people's house.

Great essay by @therickwilson.bsky.social on Trump’s grotesque and incredibly arrogant razing of the East Wing.

open.substack.com/pub/lincolns...

Our military is being paid by an anonymous donor.

Our WH East Wing was demolished for a ballroom - paid for by donors.

These aren’t acts of benevolence or patriotism.

This is the oligarchy assuming control, insidiously becoming part of how we function.

Every American should reject it.

YouTube video by Reagan Library President Reagan's Radio Address on Free and Fair Trade on April 25, 1987

So they didn’t like the ad. Let’s just post Reagan’s 5 min speech against tariffs as it appears on YouTube.

Over and over. On all platforms (some of y’all are still on X).

He was wrongfully imprisoned for 43 years. Moments after being released, ICE took him Subramanyam “Subu” Vedam now faces deportation.

After spending 43 years in prison for a crime he didn't commit, evidence hidden by the prosecution reversed his conviction. Rather than finally enjoying freedom, ICE abducted him for deportation

Depraved.

This 4-year-old's heart is failing. A federal grant that might help him was canceled A Cornell University researcher has been developing an artificial heart for children for more than 20 years. Now, his research is on hold and his lab is shut down.

An artificial heart for children with congenital heart defects was almost finished. Families had waited for years it.

Then, Trump canceled billions in grants for universities — including the grant for this device.

The cruelty is endless. www.npr.org/2025/10/09/n...

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

YES. The only way to a deal.

ICE Agents Rappel from Helicopter in Overnight Chicago Raid, Dragging Kids from Beds to U-Hauls Overnight on Tuesday, Sept. 30, federal agents from different agencies raided an apartment building on the South Side of Chicago, pulling men, women and children — some of them allegedly naked — from ...

I always pay attention to what stories People Magazine and other consumer media outlets cover. That's how you can tell that something has broken through the usual political and news bubbles. This horrific Chicago story has broken through. people.com/ice-agents-o...

Raskin: "It's not lost on anyone that shutting the government down allows them not swear in our new colleague, Ms Grijalva from Arizona, who would be the 218th signature to discharge the Epstein files and to put a vote on that on the House floor."

NEW: Sen. Tammy Duckworth is calling for Pete Hegseth to resign.

"If this PR stunt proved anything, it's that the best thing Pete Hegseth can do to strengthen our military is resign in disgrace immediately."

In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists when unprovoked — what would we call it?

If federal agents marched down streets demanding papers — what would we say?

Authoritarianism — let’s not pretend it’s something else when it happens in our American cities.

So far today, Chuck Schumer has said his strategy for preventing Trump sending troops into blue cities is to win over Republican senators (!) while Hakeem Jeffries praised Eric Adams's courage and authenticity (!!) while refusing to endorse Mamdani. Again.

These two gotta go.

I think the most telling part of this entire story is how they specifically separated her from her lawyer before grabbing her. That speaks volumes.

Cuomo could never.
