On Tom Homan's bribe.

On Donald Trump's new luxury plane.

On January 6th pardons.

On illegal strikes in the Caribbean.

On Epstein.

The stonewalling was staggering.

Dems are launching an investigation into a recent Chicago immigration raid where people, US citizens included, were violently pulled from their beds in the middle of the night & children were zip-tied, separated from their parents.

This is appalling & there must be accountability.

How about telling us how someone who isn’t a governor yet can do that.

That was one dumb comment.

DR OZ: If you're sitting at home as an able-bodied person on Medicaid & on average you'll watch 6.1 hours of TV or leisure time at home, you actually don't want that. Opiate use skyrockets


CNBC: There are a lot of people who are on Medicaid who are there actually as caregivers, so they are working

71.5% of ICE detainees have no criminal convictions, according to government data.

Don’t fall for Trump’s lies about targeting the “worst of the worst.”

As Trump's regime terrorizes communities to fill up detention centers, remember that some of his biggest donors are private prison corporations.

Stephen Miller Lays Out the Plan in Public The White House aide equates opposition to Trump’s agenda with terrorism—and pushes for the use of state power to suppress it.

Stephen Miller is portraying opposition to Donald Trump in any form, including by judges issuing legal rulings, as an illegal rebellion, Jonathan Chait argues:

NEWS: U.S. manufacturing contracted in September for the seventh straight month, as factories felt the devastating impact of Donald Trump’s tariffs.

Over the weekend Georgia's resistance nearly stormed the oligarch controlled kremlin friendly fascist presidential palace, breaking down its gates, as thousands of brave people in Tbilisi took the streets and fought off waves of fascist police forces. #3E #GeorgiaProtests

Those who have tasted freedom will never surrender to tyranny, Georgia will oust all the fascists. #3E #GeorgiaProtests

THUNE ADMITS IT: The democrats created affordable healthcare and the GOP wants to take it away. 💥

Journalist Edward R. Murrow used his platform on CBS to criticize the witch hunts led by Senator Joseph McCarthy in the 1950s.

What would you stop being able to afford if your premiums went up by $1,000?

Your insurance? Groceries? Rent?

The image is an X post by Aaron Rupar (@atrupar ) on X.com, quoting Trump: "The problem with Vietnam, we, you know, we stopped fighting to win. We would've won easy. We would've won Afghanistan easy. We would've won every war easy. But we got politically correct. 'Oh, let's take it easy.' We're not politically correct anymore, just so you understand." The post includes a photo of Trump speaking to an audience in Navy uniforms.

Trump dodged the Vietnam draft and made a disastrous deal with the Taliban in Afghanistan.

Jeffries: "Republicans enacted permanent tax breaks for the wealthy, well-off, and well-connected. Permanent tax breaks. And now the nerve of these people to say to us that 'we do not have the time or inclination to address the ACA tax credits for working-class Americans'"

Trump’s new IRS ‘CEO’: The head of Social Security The Trump administration on Monday found its seventh leader for the Internal Revenue Service since the start of President Donald Trump’s second term: the head of the Social Security Administration.

If he tries to run his same chaotic playbook at the IRS, it could spell disaster for American taxpayers.

Ex-special counsel John Durham undercut case against James Comey in interview with prosecutors: Sources John Durham, who investigated the Russia probe, told prosecutors probing James Comey that had been unable to uncover evidence supporting charges against him, sources say.

NEW: "No career prosecutor was willing to present the case to a grand jury on Halligan's behalf." lol WONDER WHY! abcnews.go.com/US/special-c...

'Judge April M. Perry of Federal District Court in Northern Illinois, a Biden appointee, pressed Trump administration lawyers for more information about National Guard assignments in the, describing herself as “very troubled by the lack of answers.”'
