Pennsylvania has an important Supreme Court race coming up on Tuesday, November 4. If you live in the Keystone State, or know someone who does, vote YES to retain three justices who will protect your fundamental rights and freedoms.

Does @johnfetterman.com realize that Republicans have been trying to get rid of ACA entirely? It would not hurt those in Congress because they can fall back to FEHB, unlike small business owners who rely on ACA marketplaces. But sure, keep voting Yea on the CR, Senator. They'd never lie to you. 👍

This video from Portland is a metaphor for what is going on in America. ICE trying so hard to get Americans to cross a line and if they don't, dragging them across the line and violently attacking.

The original guidance is a 404 on the USDA website but it can be retrieved from the Wayback Machine. I’ve downloaded the PDF.

Screenshot of web browser window. Address bar: https://www.usda.gov/sites/default/files/documents/fy2026-usda-lapse-plan.pdf Large message in a reddish brown rectangle, with the last half of the text outlined by an added orange rectangle: == ! Senate Democrats have now voted 12 times to not fund the food stamp program, also known as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP). Bottom line, the well has run dry. At this time, there will be no benefits issued November 01. We are approaching an inflection point for Senate Democrats. They can continue to hold out for healthcare for illegal aliens and gender mutilation procedures or reopen the government so mothers, babies, and the most vulnerable among us can receive critical nutrition assistance. == Below the message: Home > Page Not Found Page Not Found

That plan is now 404, with a big, partisan notice. URL in Alt

These guys get $50k signing bonuses.

Stephen Miller is telling them they have immunity and encouraging them to create chaos.

They get almost no training, many couldn’t pass an open book exam & they’re allowed to hide their faces.

They’re swinging assault rifles around in public.

Abolish ICE

Yay!

Do Members of Congress Get Free Health Care? According to memes, Congressional members and staffers are offered free, no-strings-attached health care, but there's more to the story.

Starting to plan a budget for next year within the confines of the steep ACA subsidy cliff (make a dollar too much and have to pay about $10K more for health insurance). Fun. Not that Senator @johnfetterman.com cares. He gets health insurance subsidized through his job.

From the people that pretend to be Christian, they hit a clergyman directly while protesting.

They’ve gone from attacking marginalized communities to attacking the community in general. Now they are openly attacking religious institutions.

"At this moment in time, of course, the release of the TRUMPSTEIN Files is really the public's main priority."

Trump destroying Eleanor Roosevelt‘s legacy (the east wing) feels a little on the nose.

Absolutely sucks being in Pennsylvania where I'm not represented in the Senate AT ALL. About to get creamed by ACA premium increases and subsidy expirations. Neither Senator cares one iota.

"No planning. No proposals to the National Capital Planning Commission. No opportunity for notice and comment from the public. Just Trump’s whim—and a beloved national symbol tumbles to dust. It’s obscene."

The White House is asking people not to share pictures of the East Wing because it’s even worse today.

Non-permitted demolition of a historical structure.

Yet another reason to insist that there are #NoKings in the US!

BTW I think it is thanks to you that I am now reading @scalzi.com‘s Old Man’s War series. I’m on the third book.

My feelings, exactly.

This is what solidarity looks like. Together, we will win.

This is what democracy looks like. #NoKings

(around an image of the No Kings logo) IT’S OFFICIAL Nearly 7 million people have attended today's peaceful protests, which makes No Kings Day the biggest single-day protest against tyranny in American history! With more than 2,700 lawful and peaceful protests across all 50 states, No Kings Day was 14 times larger than both of Trump's presidential inaugurations (combined).

After a week of ridiculous Republican smears and Trump claiming that “very few people are going to be there,” you just made history. #NoKings
