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

Tesla shareholders approved Elon Musk's $1 trillion pay package.

Meanwhile, millions of Americans live paycheck to paycheck, can't afford to feed their families, and struggle with cuts to the safety net made to finance tax cuts for the super-rich.

American capitalism is off the rails.

This should get a Pulitzer. It's going to be an all-time classic.

Ohio Sen. Jon Husted on fighting to weaken Medicaid: ‘I love doing that kind of stuff’ During a recent radio interview, U.S. Sen. Jon Husted (R-OH) spoke fondly about his vote for President Donald Trump’s budget reconciliation bill, which slashed Medicaid benefits for millions of Americ...

These Vets are protesting outside ICE headquarters. As the people leave the office they are playing the crying and screaming of a child who's mom juts got kidnapping by ICE. Kidnapping by masked men is not ok and @jollygoodginger.bsky.social and crew are making sure they know they are all guilty!

(between images of the Spotify logo that have been crossed out) DON’T STREAM FASCISM Spotify is treating ICE recruitment like just another ad. But when you turn family separation into a marketing pitch, you're not a platform — you're spreading propaganda. • Cancel your Spotify Premium subscription until Spotify removes all ICE ads • Demand Spotify immediately terminate all ICE and DHS advertising contracts. • Urge artists and podcasters to speak out.

Spotify is running ads recruiting more ICE agents to infringe our rights and terrorize our communities, so we’re calling on users to stop paying for or using the app until Spotify stops streaming fascism: indivisible.org/cancel-spoti... #CancelSpotify

No, he doesn’t care.

‘The use of force shocks the conscience’: Judge issues sweeping injunction on Chicago tactics of immigration agents A federal judge in Chicago issued a sweeping injunction that puts more permanent restrictions on the use of force by immigration agents during “Operation Midway Blitz.”

The Constitution protects the right to free speech and the right to peacefully assemble. www.chicagotribune.com/2025/11/06/o...

Tonight, over 240,000 Venezuelans will lose Temporary Protected Status.

The Trump administration is dismantling our core humanitarian protections, leaving hundreds of thousands at risk of detention, deportation, and harm.

Congress must protect TPS holders and pass a pathway to citizenship now.

I live in a very small town and I know what keeps small town grocery stores open:

SNAP.

This is not the country we should be.

The Onion: DHS: ‘Daycare Workers Have Walked Freely in This Country For Far Too Long’

Buried in the Big Beautiful Bill were changes to food assistance that demanded “any future change be cost-neutral. Translation: no more benefit increases, even if food prices skyrocket.”

The result was “institutionalized hunger.”

Tell me more about ‘Sleepy Joe.’

Socialism is what they called public power.

Socialism is what they called social security.

Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.

Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

LAWSUIT WIN: A federal court ruled that the Trump admin violated the 1st Amendment by putting partisan messaging in employees’ out-of-office replies during the govt shutdown.

It's simple: civil servants work for the people, not the president's political agenda.

The Sociopath-In-Chief couldn't be bothered to even turn his head in the direction of a man in the midst of a medical emergency who collapsed in his office. Completely incapable of empathy, the EPSTEIN Files can't be released soon enough.

DON’T LOOK AWAY. This is domestic terror.

If you were looking at a newspaper (or its website) this morning and didn't see this iconic photo, it was an intentional choice to pander.

Well, that certainly cleared that up.

Nothing says ‘fit to lead’ like napping through your own medical endorsement. Get Grandpa Don to bed. 🤦🏽‍♂️

I always find it interesting how the story changes when a lawyer gets to court. They can say anything they want outside of court without accountability but the rules are vastly different in court where you can get seriously penalized for lying.

Wild how propaganda turns empathy into anger and billionaires into “job creators.”
