Donald Trump’s America where simply having brown skin means you’re going to be terrorized by ICE thugs, with NO warrant, while running daily errands.

Reminder:
IT DOESN’T HAVE TO BE THIS WAY!

Trump and his vile ilk have got to go.

Proof that the U.S. government social media accounts are in fact white nationalist propaganda accounts, funded by our tax dollars.

You’ve got to see this…

Trump is demolishing the White House – which is far from the worst thing this regime is doing, yet significant nonetheless as it really captures Trump’s authoritarian pretensions. Trump is destroying public goods, because the very concept is utterly alien to him.

The Tea Party never reached the magnitude of No Kings. Yet it was covered as if it represented “real America,” just like MAGA today. Those are not empirical assessments, but articles of faith – ideological claims about the world that are widely shared in the American mainstream discourse.

Stephen Miller's agenda as chief architect behind Trump’s cruelest immigration policies: family separation, Muslim bans & ICE raids? Like Goebbels, Miller wants to dehumanize immigrants to build power through fear. Hold him accountable! #NeverAgainIsNow

Gallego: "It's murder. It's very simple. If this president feels they are doing something illegally, then he should be using the Coast Guard. If this is an act of war, then you use our military and then you come and talk to us first. But this is murder ... it's disgusting."

Canada was caught, red handed, putting up a fraudulent advertisement on Ronald Reagan’s Speech on Tariffs. The Reagan Foundation said that they, “created an ad campaign using selective audio and video of President Ronald Reagan. The ad misrepresents the Presidential Radio Address,” and “did not seek nor receive permission to use and edit the remarks. The Ronald Reagan Presidential Foundation and Institute is reviewing its legal options in this matter.” The sole purpose of this FRAUD was Canada’s hope that the United States Supreme Court will come to their “rescue” on Tariffs that they have used for years to hurt the United States. Now the United States is able to defend itself against high and overbearing Canadian Tariffs (and those from the rest of the World as well!). Ronald Reagan LOVED Tariffs for purposes of National Security and the Economy, but Canada said he didn’t! Their Advertisement was to be taken down, IMMEDIATELY, but they let it run last night during the World Series, knowing that it was a FRAUD. Because of their serious misrepresentation of the facts, and hostile act, I am increasing the Tariff on Canada by 10% over and above what they are paying now. Thank you for your attention to this matter!

The president got his feelings hurt, so we're doing 10% more tariffs on Canada. Joke of an administration.

Oxford Art Show Flips Motel Rooms Into Pop-Up Galleries Artists transform rooms at the Ole Miss Motel in Oxford into single-day art galleries. The event, titled “One Night Stand,” takes place Saturday, Oct. 25.

“They love knowing that other people see their art," Sally Lott McLellan said of the incarcerated men's artworks. "For the timeframe that the art show goes on, they’re ‘free.’ They’re out there. … To them, it means they’re established artists.”

Ezra acts like all of history consists of the time since he wrote his first blog. It's weaponized ignorance.

it's important to remember the people doing this aren't "just following orders," they signed up to do this, they're excited to do it, it's what they want to be doing, and each one of them is personally culpable for the entirety of ICE's conduct

Tear gassing random residential streets is just absolutely psychotic behavior.

The Mellon family just laundered 130 million through the defense department with Trump’s blessing. The Mellon family covered up Epstein funding through the Bank of NY. Y’all know that right?
It’s all tied together. “Pizza Gate” was always the Republicans.

Here's a photo of my friend and colleague, Jorge Bautista, getting shot in the face with a flashbang grenade. The ICE Agent is so afraid of Jorge (who was posing no threat) that he has wet himself. Please share this photo. Everyone needs to know what cowards ICE agents are.

A flash-bang in the face can kill somebody

This is depraved, both legally and literally

Social media post: martinldart If you were pissed off when Michelle Obama planted a vegetable garden, but are fine with Trump bull-dozing the entire East Wing, then you're 100% racist.

Trump's America:

Josh Hawley has announced he's introducing a bill in the Senate to fully fund SNAP during the shutdown.

Just a few months ago when he voted for the biggest cut to the program in history, it was 'big and beautiful.'

Josh Hawley is not confused, he's simply a hypocrite of the highest order.

Five Questions with Doctors Peter Hotez and Michael Mann The War on Science Continues

Here's what you need to know about Trump's war on science & medicine, from two incredible experts, @michaelemann.bsky.social & @peterhotezmdphd.bsky.social joycevance.substack.com/p/five-quest...

This is new video footage of this incident. There’s a lot of misinformation out there, here’s what we know is true.

Good morning and happy Tuesday to everyone. Virginia Giuffre’s posthumous memoir drops today and contains the truth she wanted the world to hear about Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, who groomed her to become a sex slave for Epstein and his wealthy friends. Buy it. Read it. Give her justice.

The president said today that a donor had given the government $130 million to help pay troops during the government shutdown. He declined to name the donor, but described him as a “patriot” and a personal friend. If evenly distributed, the money would pay only about $100 to each service member. But is not yet clear how the money will be used, or whether the donation violates a law prohibiting federal agencies from accepting money in excess of congressional appropriations.

New York Times reports that it is unclear whether having a federal agency accept money in excess of congressional appropriations "violates a law prohibiting federal agencies from accepting money in excess of congressional appropriations." I guess we'll never know!

Coincidence or not, that’s pretty crazy.

With millions at risk of losing SNAP in the coming days, a reminder: hunger doesn't happen in isolation. When food assistance disappears, families use rent money to eat. Then come evictions and homelessness.

Housing, food, healthcare—it's all connected. Cut one thread and the whole thing unravels.

They are preparing for civil unrest because they plan to get so criminal and cruel it will cause civil unrest. They prepare for problem, then cause problem, and act like victims.
