Seriously, who is running the country?

Feds Tell Faith Leaders 'No More Prayer' Outside Broadview Facility In a possible violation of the First Amendment, federal officials instructed demonstrators to stop holding religious gatherings outside the immigration processing facility in suburban Broadview after ...

“Federal authorities told demonstrators Friday that there would be ‘no more prayer’ in front of or inside the Broadview ICE facility, in a move that mystified local leaders and raised legal questions.” blockclubchicago.org/2025/11/07/f...

this country is dead from inside. just horrific cruelty.

An official accounting of Trump’s golf and customer service time It remains the case that President Trump doesn't particularly seem to like the White House. During his first time in office, there was reporting to this effect; in 2017, he allegedly told members of h...

Over the almost 40 days the government has been shut down, Trump:
- spent all or part of nine days overseas
- spent all or part of ten days at Trump Org properties, and
- likely played golf on six days.

Federal agents forbidding faith leaders from praying sounds like a violation of religious freedom.

But then I remember that “religious” means “white Christian identity politics,” and “freedom” means “Christian nationalists’ unrestricted ability to impose their beliefs on others.”

A tweet from Mike Nellis (@MikeNellis) reads: “Dr. Oz linking obesity to dementia while Trump’s slumped over at his desk is absolutely a choice...” Below is a photo from C-SPAN showing Dr. Oz speaking at the White House podium while Trump sits at the Resolute Desk, leaning back in his chair with eyes closed, surrounded by officials. The C-SPAN chyron reads: “TRUMP ANNOUNCES DEAL WITH PHARMACEUTICAL FIRMS FOR LOWER WEIGHT LOSS DRUG COSTS.”

The 2025 writers are trolling us.

The easiest political layup for Democrats in recent memory. That’s even compared to a lot of other easy layups.

We are under occupation by terrorists who are employed by our federal government.

US President yesterday: "I don't want to hear about affordability."
I learned long ago - document, document, document. 💁‍♀️

(Federal family though, so no Thanksgiving dinner for us this year because Trump is in the Epstein Files & 2025 is all fun.😠)

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 95th day out of the last 107.

12 days of work in 107 days.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

The AP tracked down details of some of the people killed in President Trump's military strikes on drug smugglers he describes as narco-terrorists.

They were, with one exception, not high-level criminals. One was a fisherman. One was a bus driver; another a taxi driver.

We should have updated jobs numbers today.

But Trump’s government shutdown is leaving us in the dark about our economy.

And he won’t release the already prepared jobs numbers from September.

Trump needs to release this critical data NOW.

“He’s having a seizure and they’re trying to rip the baby out of her hands”

When official sources of information dry up or become unreliable, rumors and conspiracy theories take their place. That does not always bode well for whoever is in power.

Trump isn’t meeting with Democrats for we have no bribes for him. He can’t make any money from the meeting.

Politico: Judge orders Trump administration to pay full SNAP benefits: The Trump administration is appealing the decision, which requires officials to send the money to millions of food stamp recipients by Friday.

This judge ordered the Trump Administration to release all its SNAP funding by Friday because, in his own words, "Children are immediately at risk of going hungry."

How sick do you have to be to appeal that order?

Our President straight up wants kids to starve.

If Musk meets all the benchmarks of his new $1 trillion pay package from Tesla he will be paid $274 MILLION EVERY DAY FOR THE NEXT 10 YEARS

This is his part-time job

The raw dynamism just leaps out of that image

To put this in scale, Elon Musk's salary from Tesla alone could fund the SNAP program for the entire country into 2034.

Trump literally could not care less if you live or die.

The guy's a mob boss. That's his ethic, that's his personality, that's his value system.

Rapid Response 47 @RapidResponse47 · 2m You can thank demented losers like @PattyMurray and @SenatorCantwell for this completely unnecessary, avoidable mess. They are truly sick.

your hard-earned tax dollars are paying for a White House social media account that calls duty elected senators "demented losers."

it's totally unacceptable and a disgrace.

🚨🚨🚨 The jury has reached a verdict. Sean Dunn, aka the DC Sandwich Guy, has been found NOT GUILTY of assault.

"Israel attacked first."

This admission undercuts the Trump administration's collective self-defense justification for joining Israel's military campaign against Iran over the summer.

Q: Do you have a statement on Nancy Pelosi's retirement?

TRUMP: I think she's an evil woman. I think she was a tremendous liability for the country.

Statement from The NewsGuild of New York and Condé United on illegal firing of four union leaders who demanded answers about this week’s layoffs at Teen Vogue, other brands Late Wednesday night, Condé Nast’s VP of Labor Relations notified the Guild that the Company was immediately terminating four Condé United leaders for engaging in the protected concerted activity of gathering in their 1 World Trade Center office to demand answers on this week’s abrupt layoffs at multiple brands including WIRED and the consolidation at Teen Vogue. These egregious terminations are a flagrant breach of the Just Cause terms of our contract and an unprecedented violation of their federally protected rights as union members to participate in a collective action. Through these illegal terminations, Condé Nast management is attempting to intimidate and silence our members' advocacy for the courageous cultural and political journalism of Teen Vogue, as well as diverting attention away from the obvious lack of corporate leadership at the company. Condé United members illegally fired are: Alma Avalle: Writer, digital producer at Bon Appetit; NewsGuild of New York first vice president, trans activist, and union leader Jake Lahut: Wired senior reporter covering the Trump White House Jasper Lo: Senior fact checker at The New Yorker and US Army veteran: outgoing first vice chair of The New Yorker Union Ben Dewey: Videographer at Condé Nast Entertainment, former vice chair of the CNE unit “Management’s attempt at union-busting, using intimidation and grossly illegal tactics to try to suppress protected union activity, will not stand,” said Susan DeCarava, president of The NewsGuild of New York. “The NewsGuild of New York has zero tolerance for bad bosses who harass, target and disrespect our fellow Guild members. We represent nearly 6,000 media workers across the tri-state area and we stand firmly in solidarity, ready to fight for the rights of our members illegally fired from their jobs at …

Breaking News: Late last night Conde Nast illegally fired 4 union organizers who asked company execs to explain the downsizing of Teen Vogue and continued layoffs. We’ve filed a grievance.
