Obama: When he was asked to give the trump administration a grade, he said they deserved an A. These are the same folks who put secret war plans in a group chat. You don't think there's anything they could be doing better? No room for improvement?

Hello, New Jersey! There’s a lot at stake in this election, and I’m here tonight to talk about why @mikiesherrill.bsky.social should be your next Governor. Watch live:

Fetterman is not up for election until 2028. Lots of elections to get through before then.

It's scary how cute Park Slope was tonight.

Happy Halloween, NYC.

Powell: "Higher tariffs are pushing up prices in some categories of goods, resulting in higher overall inflation."

If you’re a New Jersey commuter like me, transpo issues alone should be enough to get you voting for Mikie Sherrill.

This is how you break the supply chain and cause inflation and a recession.

Sherrill 54%-44% (+10) YouGov
Sherrill 51%-43% (+8) Quinnipiac

This is good, but when people talk about this I want to emphasize: we have not run out of money for SNAP. The money is there, it has been allotted and saved specifically for this instance. Trump refuses to release the billions of dollars that Americans have already allotted to continue food stamps!

World Central Kitchen | First Alert: WCK Relief Team Serving Meals to Federal Workers During Government Shutdown World Central Kitchen’s Relief Team is serving hot meals to furloughed federal workers in Washington, D.C., as the U.S. government shutdown nears its fourth week.

Pretty remarkable that World Central Kitchen, known for its humanitarian relief efforts around the world, is setting up aid centers for furloughed federal workers in DC

"According to his running club, the man, who is a U.S. citizen, was returning from a team run when agents pulled him out of his vehicle, tackled him to the ground and kneeled on top of him, allegedly breaking six ribs and causing internal bleeding"

After voting to kick 36,854 of her OWN constituents off of their health care, Nicole Malliotakis is now shutting down the government to jack up health insurance costs for 22 million Americans.

She’s betraying her constituents and the American people in fealty to Donald Trump.

Shameful.

Pick-Up Cuts by Trump’s U.S.P.S. Could Disenfranchise Mail Voters Read about the fight for democracy from activists, elected officials, legal experts and others.

Nearly 104,000 mail-in ballots were rejected in 2024 because they arrived too late. A new USPS policy initiated under Trump’s first Postmaster General could lead to millions more being rejected in 2026 — and it’s Trump’s rural voters who’ll be impacted most.

Gov. Hochul says she'll fast-track $30M for SNAP users affected by government shutdown Governor Kathy Hochul announced on Monday that she is fast-tracking $30 million to support more than 16 million meals.

It looks like Democratic governors are stepping up for Americans where Trump and the GOP are abandoning them.

PAYCHECK $0.00

A single dad holding back tears on national TV because his federal paycheck can’t cover food and rent, while Trump’s building a $350 million ballroom at the White House.

Is America great yet?

This is several days old. But amidst so much else id missed it. That’s a stunning number. No wonder they about-faced. Reminder of the power of consumers in oligarch era, not subject to the same kind of targeting.

Here is the video or Ronald Reagan saying church and state must remain separate.
