I'll never forgive my fellow Americans for electing this utter piece of shit. They enabled an entire government full of the worst human beings imaginable and most Americans are too ignorant to even understand what they've done.

Google joins presidential bribe club It's a "settlement." WINK WINK.

"If they can arrest James Comey, they can definitely arrest Google CEO Sundar Pichai. But the rest of us now have to live in a country that is much closer to oligarchy, thanks in large part to the quiescence of the tech bros who fashion themselves as defenders of free speech." — @lizdye.bsky.social

Massive immigration raid on Chicago apartment building leaves residents reeling: 'I feel defeated' The Department of Homeland Security said federal agents with Border Patrol, the FBI and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives arrested 37 people in the raid.

My god.

“Watson said she saw agents dragging residents, including kids, out of the building without any clothes on and into U-Haul vans. Kids were separated from their mothers…’It was heartbreaking to watch…seeing kids coming out buck naked and taken from their mothers, it was horrible.’”

He knows it. They know it. They've always known it. Amongst themselves, they joke about it. They tell stories about it. They swap advice on how to deal with it.

But most importantly, to everyone else, they lie about it.

Today, Oct.2nd, is the anniversary of Jamal Khashoggi’s murder by Saudi agents.

LOL

Nice, @mcbride.house.gov.

In Chump's Own Words.......

More pointedly, the pope said, "Someone who says, I'm against abortion, but is in favor of the death penalty is not really pro-life. Someone who says, I'm against abortion but I'm in agreement with the inhuman treatment of immigrants in the United States, I don't know if that's pro-life."

What a line from the Pope! I am so pleased he is carrying on Pope Francis’ advocacy for immigrants.

Folks — this is not a normal government shutdown.

Let me explain the stakes and how we got here.

Mike Johnson on Russ Vought unilaterally firing federal workers: "If you can downsize the scope of government and some of these inefficient program, that is a great benefit to American taxpayers."

I can’t believe I’m watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES

I know we are “used to it” but it is absolutely insane

STEPHANOPOULOS: Hold on a second. Answer the question. As Speaker, do you believe it's appropriate to use American cities as training grounds for the military, calling those people 'the enemy within'?

JOHNSON: I'm not comment on your characterization of what the president said.

S: Those are quotes

Judge Sooknanan has some problems with recent “prosecutorial machinations” in Washington, D.C., cataloguing a list of abuses and excesses she says have exploded in recent weeks ecf.dcd.uscourts.gov/cgi-bin/show...

Crockett: "What assurances do we have if we entered into an agreement with these Republicans that they wouldn't go back on their word and just say, 'Oh yeah, we'll sign off on a rescissions package'"

Elizabeth Warren: "The president said 'I am going to impose a lot more pain on my fellow American citizens. I'm going to impose a lot more pain on people in NY who need to use those tunnels so I can get my way politically.' To me, that is a place to stop & say, then we're ready to fight about this"

Dean: The president is unhinged

Johnson: A lot of folks on your side are too. I don’t control him

Dean: Oh my god, please. That performance in front of the generals.

Johnson: I didn’t see it.

Dean: Our allies are looking elsewhere. Our enemies are laughing.

In cities and towns across Americapeople are slowing down and prioritizing healthtrust and authentic connections
Experts say this isnt just a trend, but a return to timeless values: honestysecurity, and inner peace

Jane Goodall reaches out and touches a small monkey.

Jane Goodall was my first childhood hero, as I loved animals as a kid and was inspired by her story. I still remember the National Geographic specials about her. RIP.

Swear her in.
