‘Flagrantly Unconstitutional’: Letitia James Slams DOJ’s Political Prosecution, Asks Judge to Toss Charges Read more here.

🚨BREAKING: New York Attorney General Letitia James (D) Friday asked a federal judge to dismiss the felony charges against her, arguing that President Donald Trump and his political appointees at the Department of Justice (DOJ) are selectively and vindictively prosecuting her.

This has not gotten much attention, but it should.

Virginia under Youngkin returned to an insanely harsh system where people convicted of any felony lose their voting rights FOR LIFE.

Dems' win this week mean they'll get to advance a constitutional amendment to end lifetime disenfranchisement.

Trump yesterday: They have this new word called
"affordability" and [Republicans] don't talk about it enough. Democrats did.

Trump today: I don't want to hear about the affordability.

EXPOSED: ICE agents grabbed a father by the neck in Fitchburg, Massachusetts — sending him into a violent seizure while his arms locked around his toddler.

“He’s having a seizure and they’re trying to rip the baby out of his hands!”

Agents then handcuffed him before putting him in an ambulance.

NYC's next mayor is a democratic socialist. What does that mean? Democratic socialism doesn't have a one-size-fits-all definition. But its proponents emphasize a stronger role for the government over the economy to benefit the public.

DEMOCRATS JUST SWEPT VIRGINIA RACES

It's impossible to overstate how much of what ICE is doing on the ground reflects this completely preposterous conflation of hostile *speech* and hostile *conduct.*

The First Amendment protects—or, at least, is supposed to protect—the former up and until it's a "true threat," which none of this is.

Screenshot of a paragraph from a document discussing Department of Homeland Security (DHS) rules about DNA evidence. It explains that DHS may require, request, or accept DNA or DNA test results to determine eligibility for immigration and naturalization benefits. The text gives an example that DHS may request DNA evidence to prove or disprove an individual’s biological sex when it affects eligibility. The phrase “biological sex” is highlighted in green.

New proposed DHS rule will potentially require DNA testing for immigrants to prove their sex assigned at birth.

Absolutely infuriating. And NOT a business decision.

"There are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue."

Damn, what a coincidence. All these news orgs keep laying off the same types of people while a bilious, rapey, leather-faced buffoon provides them cover and shakes them down for money to build a library named for a man who does not read.

why it's almost like there's a concerted assault on informed consensus by extraction class owned media conglomerates to replace what was left of U.S. political journalism with lazy controversy hounding infotainment and right wing and corporatist agitprop

"AND you know largely when you talk about SNAP, you're talking about largely Democrats..."

"Out of 30 states tRuMp carried in 2024, 25 of them are more reliant on SNAP than the national average."

Paxlovid from Pfizer costs $15 to make and now retails for $1500.

Insane

US strikes on alleged drug boats violate law, UN human rights chief says Volker Türk said the strikes were "unacceptable" and urged Washington to halt them immediately.

A timeline of US attacks off South America and what Congress has had to say In less than two months, President Donald Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth say, the U.S. military has killed at least 61 people in strikes against drug-smuggling vessels off the South American...

US military has killed at least 61 people in Caribbean Sea & eastern Pacific Ocean. Attacks have occurred without any legal investigation or declaration of war from Congress. Lawmakers have raised questions about the lack of hard evidence to justify the killings.

Share this video. Every American needs to see it.

Trump's masked forces seize this blind US citizen, Quinn Haberl & brutalize him. Then they called this guy who was simply dancing outside their facility, a rioter. The Trump administration is corrupt & violent.
Tell everyone:
Vote blue this Nov. 4🧵

Adelita Grijalva now holds the record for longest delay between winng a special Congressional election and being sworn into office.

Why the delay from Mike Johnson?

Perhaps it's because Grijalva would cast the final vote needed to release the Epstein files.

The videos and stories of people not being able to feed their children, grandchildren, or themselves break my heart and crush my soul. If you don’t feel the same way or are indifferent to it, I don’t have any use for you and neither does humanity. #FundSnapNow

'Happy Halloween!': DHS spokeswoman responds to report of immigration agents wearing horror masks in L.A. The story by a local news site featured images posted to social media showing what the outlet says were agents in unmarked cars donning Chucky and Momo masks.

ICE wearing Halloween masks in LA because they think it’s funny to terrorize children while they are trick or treating. Real men don’t harass and bully children. These people are really sick.

Slap this quote on the side of Air Force One, the White House, your front lawn, everywhere. We should hear this on every media outlet and echoing through the streets.

Q: What do you call it when many people in multiple events are deliberately killed on the open seas outside of a declaration of war?

A: Murder. Mass murder. Crimes against humanity.

Mike Johnson is letting the House stay home while the government is shut down. Here’s the kicker:

Members of Congress will still be paid on Nov. 1 unless they personally ask not to. I’ve done that. But our staff won’t get a dime. What kind of boss pays him or herself while their team goes unpaid?

“A screenshot of a webpage from fns.usda.gov showing a warning message in a brown box. The message claims Senate Democrats voted 12 times not to fund the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), states there will be no benefits issued November 1, and accuses them of holding out for healthcare for illegal immigrants and gender-related procedures. The USDA Food and Nutrition Service logo appears at the bottom, along with a blue ‘Menu’ button.”

The official USDA site is blaming trans people for SNAP benefits expiring.

Rich media, poor democracy

Imagine what would have happened if Biden or Obama sent masked goons into deep red neighborhoods in Texas or Florida and they started grabbing people off the street and teargassing anyone who objected

it's important to remember the people doing this aren't "just following orders," they signed up to do this, they're excited to do it, it's what they want to be doing, and each one of them is personally culpable for the entirety of ICE's conduct

Did anyone spot moving vans outside the White House recently that could have been used to remove precious, historic furniture, mantel pieces, fixtures, chandeliers, lamps, and portraits from the East Wing to safety?

Absolutely outrageous!! 🤬
