Happy Halloween, Hudson Valley! Here’s to a night full of candy, costumes and community β€” and to getting and keeping the real clowns out of office.

This sweet guitar player, Joselyn Walsh, is one of the 6 brave protesters indicted in Chicago for protesting ICE, along with Kat Abughazaleh.

Here she is singing a song after the tear gas cleared. The next day, she was hit with a rubber ball & her guitar got a hole in it (see image below).

If I were running the DNC, there would be Democratic Party sponsored food relief banks across the country right now that specifically welcomed anyone regardless of party affiliation.

Along with the food, there could be voter registration and links to runforsomething.net

Live Updates: Inflation Edged Higher in September, as Tariffs Raise Some Prices

Inflation rose yet again in September. Mike Lawler and this administration have done nothing to bring prices down for families. And these reckless tariffs are only going to continue to drive up prices.

🚨ICE posing as sheriff in Hollywood, CA. Governor Newsom is going to see this and he is going to be lit with rage, as he should be. The guy asking questions on video pointing out all the illegal acts they are committing. Let’s make sure he sees what happened tonight. 1/2

This is a U.S. citizen being brutally abducted by ICE while his mom pleads for them to stop and the videographer cries for help. The Chicago police do nothing to stop it.

They will come for everyone, and they’re not even hiding that anymore. If you are not organizing and resisting yet, get started.

Watch this.

Open your eyes to this brutality.

ICE beats up, drags & abducts this disabled visually impaired man.

Now share this.

Everyone must see the brutality of this administration & ask themselves what they are doing to push back.

You have power.

Even sharing this video exerts that power.

Exactly, today is the best I’ve felt in a year. To be surrounded by thousands of good, patriotic, politically moral folks was really inspiring. Onward!

This morning, I was hit in the face by a baton.

I’m going to have a pretty gnarly bruise but we need to remember why this is happening: Trump and ICE are rounding up our neighbors, treating them as subhuman, and shipping them off to labor camps in foreign countries. It has to end.

This is one of the most concise but insightful diagnoses of America's current political crisis that I've ever read.

β€œ.. On closer inspection, however, it turned out that the image was not a photograph of a real event in Portland, but instead a fabrication created by combining two photographs of scenes that unfolded in South America nearly a decade apart ..”

It seems clearβ€”I think to everyone, nowβ€”that a false and illegal invocation of the Insurrection Act is coming before the end of the year. Media outlets should be telling us how they will prepare for this potential Treason. State governments should be telling us. Activists should be developing plans.

TERRORISM EXPERT HERE:

This statement is a clear example of what is known as β€œState Terrorism”: When the dictatorship will order all instruments of its state security & intelligence apparatus against its own citizens to terrorize the population.
