No Kings As the president escalates his authoritarian power grab, the NO KINGS non-violent movement continues to rise stronger. We are united once again to remind the world: America has No Kings and the power ...

In two days, be a part of the largest peaceful protest in modern American history.

Join No Kings this Saturday at an event near you to push back on Trump's power grabs and make it clear—we don't do monarchs here. nokings.org

Let's be clear: Trump is CHOOSING to fire as many people as he can get away with.
 
The mass firings have NOTHING to do with the shutdown—and everything to do with Trump trying to break the government as much as is possible and hurt the American people as much as he can.

On the National Mall, ‘Democracy’ drips in daylight Ben Cohen, of Ben & Jerry’s, helped bring a 3,000-pound ice sculpture to the capital as a warning that “democracy is melting away before our very eyes.”

A large ice sculpture of the word “Democracy” was placed on the National Mall on Wednesday morning in direct view of the U.S. Capitol as a vanishing reminder of rapidly eroding rights and an existential threat to the freedom on which America was founded.

Trump team can’t stop exploiting Charlie Kirk’s death The Trump administration continues exploiting the death of right-wing activist Charlie Kirk to wage war against freedom of expression. The State Department ...

Trump world milks Kirk’s death to muzzle dissent. Revoking visas for rude posts is monarchic spite, not liberty. A gaudy medal for a bigot and punishments for speech. This is censorship foreplay by fragile authoritarians.

Holy guacamole, this could be the weirdest story I ever worked on. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/16/s...

“Civilisation is a Ponzi scheme nested inside the ecosystem: it is a business that has never turned a profit, has too many dependents on its books, and is prepared to take everyone down with it when it goes bust”

From my book BEYOND THE PETRI DISH

An emotional minute as the word Democracy melts away in front of the US Capitol Building.

ABOLISH ICE and EXPAND THE SUPREME COURT should be mainstream Democratic promises and talking points.

But timidity and civility will rule the day and screw the rest of us and this country in the end.

This is YOUR reminder to schedule your annual mammogram!
I stopped by the Penn Medicine Mammography van to let you know that early detection saves lives. Talk to your doctor about preventative measures you can take to protect yourself from breast cancer!

Finally, some common sense from Oklahoma education.

Ryan Walters turned classrooms into culture war battlegrounds. Reversing his Bible mandate isn’t “anti-religion,” it’s accepting the fact that the Bible is not a history book!

Schools should teach, not preach.

JD Vance dismisses bipartisan outrage over racist and offensive Young Republican group chat The public release of a Young Republican group chat that included racist language, jokes about rape and flippant commentary on gas chambers has prompted bipartisan calls for those involved to be remov...

Trump is so pathetically criminally corrupt because he has not the intellect to make it WITHOUT crime, Russian Mob money, THOUSANDS of instances of FRAUD, wire fraud, election fraud, and every other form of fraud known to man. This is also why the KGB knew the pedo-prick was their boy to destroy USA

Murdering civilians at sea was a test of the military's loyalty to their False Orange God.
"Will you indiscriminately murder innocent people for me?"
The answer was a deafening "Yes Sir."

Appallingly, our own children have been brainwashed to murder us.

I am sounding the alarm that the GOP is engaged in an all out attack voting rights and free and fair elections. Voter suppression, gerrymandering, and troops in blue cities are just some of the ways they are using to try to rig the rules to keep power in 2026 and beyond.

Pay attention and act!

It should be a litmus test for Democratic presidential primary candidates whether they will restore the White House and DC public properties to exactly the way they were before the Palm Beach lounge lizard decided to turn it into Mar-a-Lago meets 1936 Nuremberg.

We got $20 billion for Argentina though.

Meanwhile, Justice Gorsuch is nodding along to oral arguments at the Supreme Court about how there’s no racism in politics anymore

What's your rewrite? "President Trump on Wednesday issued a document claiming he could grant himself powers not granted to him to snatch up federal funds the Constitution grants Congress jurisdiction over, in a move sure to meet with legal challenges."

And making Congress irrelevant.

"a memorandum expanding his administration’s authority"

The phrasing you're looking for is that he's suspending parts of the Constitution by decree.

"If you want to know who controls you…
look at who you are not allowed to criticize."

AOC: You're damn right that it's a Democratic priority to keep people from getting poisoned, from dangerous chemicals 

You're damn right that it's a Democratic priority to bring down the cost of housing


If they want to say that that's a Democratic priority, they're right,

Reminder that any political party trying to make it harder to vote is sending a clear message: they can't win on their ideas alone.
