No more donations to the DNC for this weak, helpless representation. It is time to elect people who are prepared to meet this moment.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

It's been two weeks since Adelita Grijalva was elected and Mike Johnson has still refused to seat her, unlike in past cases where he swore in new members within 24 hours.

There cannot be one set of rules for Rs and another for Ds.

Also, release the damn Epstein files already.

Someone should start asking why we’re hearing and seeing Stephen Miller so much all of a sudden.

Burbank Airport will have no air traffic controllers Monday evening, FAA warns Burbank Airport is bracing for impacted operations as air traffic controllers begin to call out in greater numbers due to the government shutdown.

Thanks, Donald Trump!

Burbank Airport has ZERO air traffic controllers from 4:15pm to 10pm today because of YOUR government shutdown.

β€œWe are home now. We marched from the park to ICE, very peaceful crowd. We were standing around ICE pushed us down, sprayed us with chemical and I was hit in the head with a projectile. This was so unprovoked. People have to know that the Feds are attacking people with NO provocation whatsoever.”

ICE is made up of men who have failed the human test and have nothing of value to offer this nation.

Adults with decency and options and possibilities don’t do this shit.

Also AOC is beautiful, and it seems he’s had a chip on his shoulder since he started balding in his teens. Handsome men can rock baldness. He is not one of those men.

Report Potential Wrongdoing Under the Trump Administration Whistleblowers play a vital role in helping Congress conduct our constitutionally mandated oversight responsibilities. If you have knowledge of corporate or government corruption and abuses of power; insights into the crimes of Jeffrey Epstein and his associates; or information regarding potential wrongdoing or waste, fraud, and abuse of taxpayer dollars, your disclosure can make a difference.

The Hatch Act is clear: federal employees cannot use government resources to promote or attack a political party.

This is tough. After 2016, people rushed out to buy 'Hillbilly Elegy' to try and understand and reach out to the Trump voters. Here we are, 9 years later, and that chinless shapeshifter is the VP of a far worse version of Trump. They can join the fight, but should not expect to be embraced.

Another effort to track ICE raids was just taken offline People over Papers was removed by Padlet, the platform it was built on, yesterday.

Identifying public officials isn't "doxing." People have the right to know who is working for their government. Nor, for that matter, is it "radical left-wing terrorism." So it's frustrating to see platforms caving to these bad faith characterizations. www.technologyreview.com/2025/10/06/1...

It should never have allowed to go on after he ordered those ridiculous Trump bibles. The passivity of the masses has to stop.

Stephen Miller Lays Out the Plan in Public The White House aide equates opposition to Trump’s agenda with terrorismβ€”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:

Why we can’t allow Trump to ban that other f-word | Will Bunch The column the Trump regime wants to ban: America has to call out surging fascism in order to defeat it.

The reason Trump, Vance and Miller want to make it un-American and maybe even illegal to mention "fascism" or make comparisons to Nazis is because they are aggressively doing fascism, with Gestapo tactics in the streets of Chicago

ICE is hog tying protesters in Portland and removing them on Dollies.

This is dangerous and could cause serious injury.

The Department of Homeland Security thinks it’s a joke.

They’ve shared this video with the tagline β€œRefuse to Walk? We’ll give you a ride”.

Stay strong Portland.

This is a breathtaking abuse of the law and power by the President of the United States.

America is on the brink of martial law.

Do not be silent.

This video of Chicagoans intervening to save a man from being abducted off the streets by ICE is making the rounds on Instagram.

Community action works.
