Under the Government Employee Fair Treatment Act of 2019, furloughed federal workers must receive back pay once funding is approved. It’s not optional, it’s the law. I’m not asking for a favor — I’m demanding what I’m legally owed. #FederalWorkers #BackPay

YouTube video by Adam Mockler Pam Bondi LEFT STUNNED after Epstein BLOW UP

Bondi showed up to the Oversight Committee with zero answers and endless deflection. Instead of honesty, she attacked — a classic Trump-era tactic. Grown adults in power should be accountable, not evasive. 🎥 Watch:

"WE WILL NOT GO QUIETLY INTO THE NIGHT WE WILL NOT VANISH WITHOUT A FIGHT"

🔥 We’re not backing down — not now, not ever. 💪 #StandTogether #KeepFighting

Border Patrol called anti-ICE protester ‘B****’ before shooting her: lawyer Lawyer says video shows agents provoked clash before firing, fueling scrutiny of federal use of deadly force.

Violence isn’t the answer — but neither is sending masked, unbadged agents into communities under false pretenses. People lash out when they feel powerless. If our government acted with transparency and humanity, we wouldn’t be here. #Accountability

I just love her!! She can probably a little too progressive for me, but overall we share the same ideals.

She nailed it!

John Oliver: "If ICE can bother some guys at a roofing job, bystanders can bother ICE at their state-sanctioned kidnapping job."

Same.

I'm so sick of the casualness of their constant lying.

Medicaid Coverage Supports Rural Patients, Hospitals, and Communities | AHA One in seven Americans live in rural areas and rely on rural hospitals and health systems for the health and well-being of their communities. Many in Congress are currently considering cuts to the Med...

💙 Cutting Medicaid isn’t just a budget choice — it’s a life-and-death decision. Rural hospitals will close, patients will lose access, and even big hospitals will struggle to care for those most in need. Healthcare shouldn’t depend on your ZIP code. #ProtectMedicaid #HealthCareForAll

Trump says he's open to health care deal but government must reopen first President Donald Trump cracked the door slightly to negotiations with Democrats on the health care subsidies they’ve made central to the shutdown fight, then abruptly closed it Monday, leaving the two...

As a federal employee, I know what’s at stake. This shutdown is about leverage — if priorities aren’t in the CR now, there’s no guarantee they’ll ever be. Ending the shutdown without real commitments just rewards bad-faith tactics. #DoYourJob #StopTheShutdown

Exactly 💯

Trump to deploy Texas National Guard troops to Chicago, Pritzker says President Donald Trump plans to deploy 400 members of the Texas National Guard to Illinois, Oregon and other states, Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker said.

Trump now wants to send Texas National Guard troops into Illinois — and tried the same with California to Oregon. This isn’t border security, it’s creeping authoritarianism. Our states aren’t battlefields. We must reject this militarization of America. 🇺🇸 #DemocracyUnderThreat

Texas proudly invading Illinois.

It’s hard to describe the level of potential constitutional crisis here.

No corruption here, folks! Totally normal stuff the deputy director of the CIA(Michael Ellis) just demoted the acting general counsel and decided to make himself the top lawyer while still being the No. 2 in charge.

Yes, very weird. 🤷🏼‍♂️

Trump news at a glance: President mulls use of insurrection act as national guard deployment faces legal issues The president threatened the use of emergency powers after a federal judge temporarily halted national guard deployment in Portland. Key US politics stories from 6 October at a glance

Trump mulling the Insurrection Act to unleash troops — but there’s no uprising, just Americans peacefully voicing concerns. This isn’t leadership, it’s authoritarian overreach. We must stand together and stop this dangerous slide before it’s too late. 🇺🇸 #DemocracyMatters

The view from an ANTIFA landing craft June 6th 1944

In order for the United States to become a party to the International Criminal Court and have our officials be subject to trial at The Hague, the US Senate would need to ratify the Rome statute by a two-thirds vote. Let’s start running on that.

House Oversight Ranking Member Robert Garcia has sent a letter to Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick — after Lutnick called Jeffrey Epstein the 'greatest blackmailer ever' — urging him to testify before the panel about his knowledge of Epstein and his crimes.

So Speaker Johnson gave the congress another week off. Paid of course, while they shut the govt down.

The GOP has made it clear they have no interest in compromise with Dems. So they will have to figure how to reopen their govt that they closed.

And they get another vacation

This shit is dystopian. Blackhawk helicopters, zip-tied kids, and racial segregation vans.

ICE is terrorizing communities.

Judge Says DOJ May Be Vindictively Punishing Abrego Garcia for Challenging Removal to El Salvador Read more here.

🚨BREAKING: A federal judge in Nashville ruled that the Department of Justice’s criminal case against Maryland man Kilmar Abrego Garcia may be a form of punishment against him for legally challenging his abrupt removal to an El Salvador megaprison earlier this year.

Is “radical-left” violence really on the rise in America? The killing of Charlie Kirk is part of a grim pattern of political violence. This is what the data show

Claims of “radical-left violence surging” don’t hold up — data show most politically motivated violence comes from the right. The left isn’t fueling a wave of violence. Check the facts. (via The Economist)

Federal Agents Handcuff Chicago Alderperson At Hospital ER In another incident caught on video Friday, federal agents inside a car randomly threw tear gas into a Logan Square street while people — including a 2-year-old — were outside nearby.

Federal agents are overtly abusing their power to try to intimidate advocates and elected officials. We need ICE out of Illinois immediately and justice for people like Ald. Jessie Fuentes who are defending their communities.

Donald Trump Threatens Flag Burners with Made-Up Punishment Flag burning is protected by the First Amendment, despite Trump’s executive order criminalizing it.

Trump’s claim that flag burning should carry “one year in prison” is a made-up punishment. The Supreme Court has long held that flag burning is protected speech under the First Amendment — no one can just invent jail time for dissent.
