Jeffries: "The effort to mischaracterize the rallies that are gonna take place all across the country is part of the continued right-wing disinformation machine that is failing to persuade the American people."

Major news outlets are standing together and refusing to sign. ABC News, CBS News, CNN, Fox News, and NBC News have all rejected a new Pentagon policy that would impose unprecedented restrictions on news gathering.

President Trump is trying to rule like a king. Terrorizing our communities. America doesn't belong to kings or dictators, but to us. On Oct. 18, we rise. To protect each other, our families, our futures. Which side of history will you be on? #NoKings #Voterizer social.fieldteam6.org/s/jGb0W6qh

Vance downplays group chat messages: β€˜Kids do stupid things, especially young boys.’ The vice president called the texts "edgy, offensive jokes."

last i checked these young republicans were like 25 years old. but this is a classic case of infantilization to diminish the significance of the offense. www.yahoo.com/news/article...

Let Portland be the blueprint.
Stay peaceful. Stay joyful. Stay respectful.
They want anger and violence.
But they have no idea how to respond to kindness and joy.
It throws them completely off balanceβ€”so let’s give them that on 10/18. #Pinks #MomSky #NoKings

Los Angeles County declares state of emergency over immigration raids Los Angeles County officials voted on Tuesday to declare a state of emergency over ongoing federal immigration raids.

To be clear:

LA County has declared a state of emergency BECAUSE OF the federal government.

The Feds, LA County is (correctly) saying, have CAUSED the emergency.

This is a striking political moment of internal collapse. Local govts feeling compelled to protect their ppl from … their own govt.

Every year, 20,000 Ohioans file for bankruptcy because of medical debt. Even those with insurance are struggling. One in four Ohioans with employer coverage still can’t afford their medical bills.

Let’s be clear: the Republican shutdown continues because the Republican Speaker dares not bring back the House to face an Epstein vote they would lose and a divided caucus with vulnerables who want to extend Affordable Care credits and MAGAloons who won’t.

NO. It's fundamentally inappropriate for the @dscc.bsky.social to form a fundraising committee with Janet Mills. What happened to staying OUT of the primaries?

The people behind the inflated protests are performing a monumental service to democracy & peace in the US. The Regime wants riots, but these animal characters are not only an effective protest, grabbing attention & mocking ICE, they seem to reduce the risk of violent protests. It's perfect.

Chris Christie: β€œThie is no longer, the Department of Justice, is no longer the premier prosecuting office in America. What it is now is a capo regime who goes out and executes hits when directed by the Don to do so. That’s what it is.”
