Alaska’s Public Schools Serve as Emergency Shelters. Those Buildings Are Also in Crisis. Across hundreds of Alaskan communities, public schools are often the safest buildings where people can take shelter during disasters. After decades of state neglect, however, some have become emergenc...

In Alaska, public schools are the “last place of refuge,” the state’s emergency management director said. They’re often the only structures tall enough to avoid flooding and large enough to house hundreds of people.

But they’re also falling apart.

Apparently, one of the jurors in the sandwich case raised a fist as she walked out of the courtroom and passed the defense table ✊

Jury finds D.C. ‘sandwich guy’ not guilty of assaulting officer Sean C. Dunn admitted he flung the hoagie at a federal agent. His attorneys called it a “harmless gesture” of protest as Trump commandeered D.C. police.

Not only was Sandwich Guy acquitted.

He was acquitted on a misdemeanor after Jeanine Pirro failed to get an indictment for a felony assault charge out of a grand jury. www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...

The Shutdown of U.S.A.I.D. Has Already Killed Hundreds of Thousands The short documentary “Rovina’s Choice” tells the story of what goes when aid goes.

One analytical model shows that, as of November 5th, the dismantling of U.S.A.I.D. has already caused the deaths of 600,000 people, two-thirds of them children. https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/jUzNSc

Sub Guy DC's Sean Dunn After Beating the Wrap

I can’t wait for Trump to try to fine Subway University over this!

📌Tonight is a complete repudiation of Trump's failing administration.
Right now there is sheer panic among the Congressional serfs in the GOP, who have sacrificed themselves at the golden altar of their mad, unpopular, and hateful orange king.

The PEOPLE have spoken and are coming for THEM.

The DC Sandwich Thrower''s trial started today.

His lawyers say it's retaliation since the CBP agent hit with the sandwich was not injured.

The federal agent who shot Rev. David Black with a pepper ball at point-blank range faces zero charges.

A sandwich gets more accountability than a cop.

An ICE agent’s worst nightmare:

The woman in this video had just had kidney surgery.

A lot of the people you see arguing against food assistance are actually on food assistance. They work at Walmart or a convenience store and think they are deserving, but others are not.

This is projection and the way that the 1% keep poor people pitted against poor people so they don’t look up.

When we launched this campaign, we said we wanted to knock on one million doors across the five boroughs by the June primary.

Some people laughed. You got to work. We hit 1.6 million.

In the general, we said let's do it again. Another million.

We just passed three.

Nancy Pelosi: "He's just a vile creature, the worst THING on the face of the earth." All the pearl clutchers can shut it. Trump has said worse and I’m glad he gets a taste of his own medicine.

I second the motion on the floor!

Trump’s immigration raids continue through Halloween in Chicago and Los Angeles In Chicago suburb, protesters confronted ICE agents, whom Evanston mayor said ‘assaulted’ residents

“Illinois children should not be robbed of their innocence,” Pritzker wrote. “Please let children be children for one holiday, free from intimidation and fear.”

"Noem said...: “No, we’re absolutely not willing to put on pause any work that we will do to keep communities safe.”

You mean traumatized

For One Day at Least, Long Live the King King Charles III shows us—but, really, congressional Republicans—what actual accountability looks like when it comes to Jeffrey Epstein.

"As Virginia Giuffre’s brother said, “An ordinary American girl from an ordinary American family brought down a British prince with her truth and extraordinary courage.” If only the truth and courage of this American girl could prevail here in the United States!"

Billboards outside US Southern Command urge troops not to 'break the law’ in Caribbean strikes “Don’t let them make you break the law,” reads a billboard along the road to U.S. Southern Command, one of several set up by veterans.

"The new billboards are designed to inform troops of legal resources … 'The [Southern Command] strikes … represent the most blatantly illegal act that this administration has had the military carry out.'"

“They were careless people, Tom and Daisy- they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.”

Trump moves to block public servants from loan forgiveness based on ideology Those who work with undocumented immigrants, provide gender transition care for minors or publicly protest could be blocked from student loan forgiveness under a new rule.

No, Mr. President.

You do not have the right to take away student debt forgiveness from teachers, nurses, veterans and other public servants if they do not show loyalty to your right-wing political agenda.

This is a democracy, not a dictatorship. Rescind this illegal rule.

Best 3 minutes you will spend on the internet today.

Legit jump scare!

Earlier this month, the Administration publicly stated it had billions in funding to continue SNAP during the Republican shutdown.

Then Trump decided he'd rather let millions of Americans starve.

Today, two federal courts reminded him that it's not his choice.

It’s the law.

yes yes yes yes yesssss

REV. BLACK (who was shot in the head with a pepper ball): “If this is what they’re doing to pastors, journalists, teachers, mothers, and the elderly gathered to sing and pray outside ICE facilities… what might they be doing to our neighbors who are behind those walls?”
