None of this is normal

Pour one out for every professional political pundit, writer, consultant whatever that has spent the last decade trying to pretend that the Trump phenomenon was about trade or opiates and not a big chunk of white america losing its mind over having a black president bsky.app/profile/kyle...

This is the way.

F*ck ICE.

🚨HOLY CRAP. An ICE whistleblower just revealed a secret memo authorizing ICE officers to break into homes without a judicial warrant, which DHS's own legal training materials say is unconstitutional!

ICE then hid the memo from the public, passing it along by word of mouth and private conversation.

Any Democratic votes to fund DHS later this month as Minneapolis is being terrorized by DHS is going to be a major slap in the face to Americans living here. Demand major reforms or shut the government down.

Congress must:
✅ Make federal officers liable under §1983
✅ No exceptions. No carve-outs.

❗ THE DEMAND

Congress must:
✅ Make federal officers liable under §1983
✅ No exceptions. No carve-outs.

If they won’t:

🛑 DEFUND & DISMANTLE ICE

⏰ ACT NOW

The federal funding deadline
expires January 2026

Accountability delayed
= accountability denied

📣 CALL. EMAIL. DEMAND ACTION.

🚨 WHY IT MATTERS

The Supreme Court gutted Bivens, creating:
• Federal agents above the law
• Victims with no real remedy
• Oversight with no consequences

That’s not democracy.
That’s immunity.

⚖️ TWO-TIER JUSTICE SYSTEM ⚖️

Did you know this?

👮‍♂️ State & Local Police
✔️ Can be sued personally
✔️ Law: 42 U.S.C. § 1983

🕶️ Federal Agents (ICE • DHS • FBI)
❌ Usually cannot be sued
❌ Shielded by weakened Bivens doctrine

Same power.
No accountability.

Trump vetoes bill to fund Arkansas Valley Conduit in Colorado President Trump vetoed a bill to fund a pipeline project to bring clean drinking water to communities on the Eastern Plains between Pueblo and Lamar.

NEW: Trump used his first veto to block a unanimously approved Colorado drinking water project.

Lauren Boebert, whose district the pipeline project is in, slammed Trump, suggesting it was retaliation for her signing the discharge petition to release the Epstein files www.9news.com/article/news...

Turns out elections still matter, organizing still works, and Republicans don’t automatically get whatever they want just because they say so. Congrats to Democrats in Iowa for showing up and blocking a supermajority.

BREAKING: A family singing troupe has fled the country on foot in order not to play the Kennedy Center!

Ex FTC chair Lina Khan to @ivehaditpodcast.bsky.social on Paramount & Netflix vying for Warners: “Both of these deals look illegal — what’s striking is in the Trump administration, everything is up for sale… maybe they’ll look the other way in terms of what he and his family get.”

WTF?

While 42 million Americans are wondering how to feed their families during a shutdown, our Vice President thought it was the perfect time for a cringeworthy Halloween post.

So the Vice President’s Halloween message is: "Trick-or-treat… just don’t expect the treat part!"

✔️ The Senate GOP has the power right now to end the shutdown without Democrats.
❌ They’re just choosing not to use it.
✅ Verdict: Anyone blaming Democrats is lying.

It's not hard to find this information. Thank you for coming to my TED talk and your attention to this matter.

As I sit here in a polling center, waiting for voters to come in and vote, I did a little research:

It only takes 51 Senators to end the filibuster and reopen the government.

Republicans have 53. If they wanted to stop this shutdown, they could — right now.

A lot of trolls out tonight on various platforms about the new lawsuit my firm filed in New York.

I told you we fight hard.
I told you Trump doesn't scare us.
And remember, I told you we usually win.

The USDA has funding set aside to keep food assistance programs running during emergencies.

Trump just won’t release it.

440,000 Minnesotans - and millions more Americans - will pay the price.

“Dysfunctional government” doesn’t even begin to describe this.

1.4 million civilian federal employees didn’t get a paycheck. And the part no one’s talking about: even if the government reopens tomorrow, we’ll be right back on the edge by November 21—the next shutdown deadline.

Chaos on repeat.

Lawyers allege cover-up after fed shoots at man during D.C. traffic stop Neither D.C. police nor the Department of Homeland Security have explained why the Homeland Security agent fired his weapon.

BREAKING: A Department of Homeland Security officer shot at an unarmed black man during a traffic stop in DC, and the DC police officer said he was told by superiors not to mention the shooting in his incident report. 1/ www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...

We all need to fight Trump's plan for voter suppression and election subversion. We need to recognize that it has multiple dimensions. We need to educate ourselves and our communities and then take action.

“Forget about the polls. Go into the last eight days of this election assuming you are five points behind.”

Marc Lobliner post on X: "Why the hell are we giving food stamps to 40 million people? Does anyone work anymore?"

SNAP isn't about "people who don't work." It's about people who don't get paid enough to live.

Of the 40 or so million people who rely on food stamps:

* Two-thirds are children, seniors, or disabled

* Most working-age adults who receive SNAP are employed—but in jobs that pay poverty wages

The GOP in Congress are worse than useless. They are craven enablers of murder.
