Socialism is what they called public power.

Socialism is what they called social security.

Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.

Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people.

Fox News credulously reports that "the Saudis now say their investment pledge in the US will be increased to $1 trillion." THE ENTIRE GDP OF SAUDI ARABIA IS $1.1 TRILLION, so this is total nonsense.

The sight of Mohammed bin Salman sitting in the Oval Office should make all Americans want to vomit. It sure does for me.

Swalwell: Kristi Noem and Tom Homan, you should familiarize yourselves with this room. Get to know that witness chair — you’re going to be parked in it for a long time. Accountability is coming.

Khanna: "There should be no buildings named after people in this Epstein class. There should be no scholarships named after them. They shouldn't be enjoying perks of being affiliated w/ corporations or universities. Many of the survivors will tell you some of these people still are celebrated"

I mean, look, I'm not a reporter, so who am I to talk?

But on a day where the president both just called a woman reporter "Piggy" and is celebrating someone who had people bone saw apart one of my colleagues, I might just be a little ready to defend my colleagues and profession.

But that's just me

The White House Intervened on Behalf of Accused Sex Trafficker Andrew Tate During a Federal Investigation Federal authorities were chided for seizing electronic devices from Tate and his brother, and told to return them, records and interviews show. Experts said the intervention was highly inappropriate.

NEW: The White House intervened on behalf of accused sex trafficker Andrew Tate during a federal investigation.

“It was so offensive to what we’re all here to do, to uphold the law and protect the American people,” one official involved said.

CIA concludes Saudi crown prince ordered Jamal Khashoggi’s assassination Audio recordings, intercepted phone calls and other intelligence link Mohammed bin Salman to killing that Saudis say was conducted by rogue elements.

A reminder that seven years ago almost to the day, the CIA determined that Mohammed Bin Salman ordered the killing of @washingtonpost.com journalist Jamal Khashoggi.

I hired and worked with Jamal for a year.

Massive blow to GOP as federal judges strike down Gerrymandered Texas maps Texas’ plan to gerrymander its congressional map in favor of Republicans hit a massive snag on Tuesday as a federal panel of judges struck down the new district map on the grounds that they discriminated against minority groups.The decision was handled down by a panel of three federal judges after a...

A federal court just blocked Texas from rigging elections with racist maps. This is a stunning blow to the GOP's scheme to steal power by silencing minority voters.

If you are about to enroll in Medicare, chances are you, like me, know too little. My advice is to ignore the onslaught of TV commercials & don’t enroll in a Medicare C or advantage plan. Stick with original Medicare & buy a supplemental (or Medigap) policy. Keep your docs & no worry. My 2 cents

Coons on Epstein files: "My hunch is that AG Bondi, having just been ordered on social media by the president to open an investigation into a series of high-profile Dems, will promptly say, 'No, there's an ongoing investigation, we can't disclose any of this,' and the president will back that up."

The image is a tweet from Aaron Rupar (@atrupar) that reads:
“Q: Massie says he's concerned that the Epstein probe you're calling for could be a smokescreen to block the release of more files. Is that the case?
TRUMP: I don't want to talk about it because fake news like you — you're a terrible reporter — they just keep bringing that up to deflect from the tremendous success of the Trump administration.”
Below the text is a screenshot from a Fox News broadcast showing Donald Trump speaking to reporters outdoors at night. The chyron reads:
“BREAKING NEWS — NOW: PRESIDENT TRUMP SPEAKING TO REPORTERS”
and the location marker says:
“PALM BEACH INT’L AIRPORT LIVE 6:50 PM ET.”

It really pisses me off as a New Mexican, when ignorant posters classify NM as a “red” state. For fucks sake we are one of the bluest states in the nation. Our Governor is a Dem. Both are US Senators are Dems. All three of our Congressmen & women are Dems. Stop trashing us because we’re poor.

What kind of country are we to let millions of children starve. And MAGA callls themselves Christians. And what kind of of Halloween is it for kids when they are asking for canned goods. Im beyond disgusted with what is going on in America today.

California – this Election Day, vote yes on Prop 50.

California’s Prop 50 says that if Republicans are going to abuse the system to try and hang onto power, we’re going to counteract that abuse and create a level playing field in the midterm elections.

Make a plan to vote yes on Prop 50.

21% of all New Mexicans depend on SNAP to eat. Our Governor has unlocked 30 million dollars —the first in the nation — to keep children fROM starving for two weeks. She will call a special session to get the additional 80 million to extend SNAP through November. Damn MAGA to hell for starving kids
