Sixty-five years ago today, four first-graders desegregated New Orleans's public schools: Ruby Bridges at William Frantz Elementary School, and Leona Tate, Tessie Provost, and Gail Etienne at McDonogh 19 Elementary School. They faced violent mobs and threats to their lives. They were 6 years old. 🗃

There is ZERO reason for this aside from cruelty. Shame on the Illinois State Police. You should be protecting the people. @govpritzker.illinois.gov WTF IS THIS.

This is a better answer than I gave on The Source to @kaitlancollins.bsky.social last night.

ADMINISTRATIVE ORDER BY THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR: ORDERED: That under the authority contained in O.C.G.A. § 15-18-5, Peter J. Skandalakis, Executive Director, Prosecuting Attorneys' Council of Georgia, or his designee, is hereby appointed to act as District Attorney rat, fortre time pea d beal in i o prostition, a master ta n, arrest or Gran Jury proceedings, whichever comes first, until all appeals are exhausted, the following case, to wit: State v.

This 14h day of November 2025. Peter J. Skandalakis, Executive Director

BREAKING: Pete Skandalakis, executive director of the Prosecuting Attorneys’ Council of Georgia, has appointed himself to prosecute the case against Trump and others in Fulton County.

The move follows a court ruling that disqualified Fani Willis from pursuing the case.

PSA: There is no Republican health care plan.

Imagine being one of the Epstein survivors.

First Epstein got a sweetheart deal.
Then Ghislaine Maxwell got hers.

Now, survivors' families are calling for justice...to release all the files. But the GOP won’t do it.

We stand with survivors. #ReleaseTheFiles

I was asked today on ABC News my thoughts about the Epstein files.

I had one answer: Focus on the survivors and give them answers.

If the Democrats had a hair on their ass they would start a nationwide campaign where they had commercials showing all the Republicans convicted of sex scandals plus the emails with they’re not like us playing in the background.

Agreed!

YES: Rep. Jasmine Crockett calls for all 50 states to ABOLISH voting machines owned by Dominion, which is now owned by a MAGA election-denying Trump supporter.

Earnest post: there is increasingly direct evidence that Trump participated in child sex trafficking or at least knew about it.

He should resign, be impeached and removed from office, and prosecuted.

Even if you don’t think that WILL happen it’s important to say publicly that it SHOULD happen.

JD's family has spent $35M on vacations.

Kash Patel used a $60M FBI jet to go on a date.

Trump spent $98M to golf for 24% of the days of this term.

ALL WITH OUR TAX DOLLARS.

But you think a single mom getting $6 a day for SNAP is the problem?

We can no longer have milquetoast Senators who don’t truly represent us. The American dream is dying as people are getting poorer, sicker and have fewer opportunities-while MAGA takes away our rights and gives our money to billionaires

If you can’t fight for us, you don’t deserve our votes

Period

What was the damn point of the shutdown? People missed paychecks, families went without SNAP, and Democrats walked away with nothing.

This isn’t about moderates versus the far left. It’s about who’s actually fighting for people who are struggling.

She nails where so many of us are right now.

There is no excusing this. It’s a huge setback. But we must regroup, expose the cruelty of Trump’s actions, and never stop fighting for the right of healthcare for every American. 2/2

What just happened on the Senate floor was a disgrace.

In the same chamber where the nation watched Senator McCain show courage in saving the ACA, now we see a vote that will lead to millions losing healthcare. 1/2

Hi, Jean. My friend is a Nigerian prince who needs to urgently retrieve $1,000,000 from an abandoned trust from his father.

If you can wire $5,000 today, you will be entitled to 35% of the trust. Please reply at your earliest convenience.

🚨 💰 WOW — @SenatorHagerty & @MarshaBlackburn snuck a provision into the spending bill that would let them sue the government for $500,000 because Jack Smith looked into their phone records around Trump’s insurrection.

The Republican grifting is endless. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/10/u...

We're debating on the government funding package right now and every single Republican voted against a Democratic amendment to pass a clean, one-year extension of the ACA tax credits.

Republicans just don't care about your health care.

The President wouldn't last five minutes as an air traffic controller, and after everything they've been through - and the way this administration has treated them from Day One - he has no business shitting on them now.

Good morning to everyone but especially to Lady Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss, whose judgement against Rudy Giuliani for defaming them and turning their lives upside down cannot be pardoned away by the president

Equatorial Guinea is routinely ranked as one of the most corrupt countries in the world. It has been ruled by the same person since 1982 - for 45 years. Despite the title of President, he rules with near-absolute power.

The Trump admin just deposited $7.5 million in his government's bank account.

Let’s be clear: Chuck Schumer is the one ending this shutdown, no matter how the votes read.

Chuck Schumer is claiming that he’s voting no, while letting other Senators (Fetterman, Kaine, King, etc) do HIS dirty work.

He must be removed from his leadership & primaried for the sake of this country

We’re not going to “fix the Democrats’ brand” by doing TikToks or launching pods. The brand is a direct reflection of our elected officials. If we want to purge our weak branding, we have to purge the weak Dems. I’m looking forward to a robust primary cycle and new Democrats who know how to fight.

Senator Murray Statement on Government Funding Vote: “The Fight for Health Care Does Not End Tonight—This is the MAGA Health Care Hike” | United States Senate Committee on Appropriations United States Senate Committee on Appropriations

I voted NO. As long as there is still any time left to reverse the MAGA health care hike, I believe we should do everything we can to force Republicans to the negotiating table.

The fight for health care does not end tonight.

80% of Democratic voters want a new leader in the Senate.

Does that matter at all to Democratic senators?

“This was a very very bad vote”

YouTube video by Washington Post Sen. John McCain's 'thumbs down' vote against repealing Obamacare: An oral history

In 2017, three Republicans stood up to their caucus to preserve landmark ACA legislation for millions of Americans. Tonight, eight democrats killed it.

@walshfreedom.bsky.social God bless you!! You fucking get us!! THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU SAID ON MSNBC!!! PLEASE KEEP SPEAKING OUR TRUTH! God love you!! (When a former Repub “gets” you more than your own party!!)

👇🏽

Any deal that counts on GOP being good faith partners in governance misunderstands the modern Republican Party. Idiotic and out of touch!
