Voters want a Democratic Party that fights back against the forces that have rigged the system and made their lives more difficult.

A party that comforts the afflicted and afflicts the comfortable —not a party that buckles and capitulates.

When will party leadership learn this lesson?

Way to keep the caucus together chuck.

Senate Dems, do not cave. Ensuring healthcare premiums don’t surge is an 80-20 issue. They want to gut the ACA because their disdain for Obama far outweighs their concern for anyone’s health.

So to cap their horrible week, Senate Republicans refused a deal to reopen the government in exchange for just helping people with health insurance and now the president wants the Supreme Court to say he doesn’t have to obey the law and feed the hungry.

Amazing.

They want you to leave your phones at home so you can’t take video of them. If you leave your phone at home, take a go-pro with you. Cameras out, America!

I had a run in with ICE snatching a man out of his car while walking my children to school this morning in NW DC

I asked a neighbor to continue walking my kids to school and I turned back to document and confront the ICE agents.

I am in contact with @dcmigrantmutualaid.org with the full video.

This is officially one of the strangest pictures in American history, and I do not doubt that it will be considered iconic a hundred years from now.

100% serious here.

The AI bubble popped, the Fed hit panic mode, and Trumpomics is back from the dead—this ain’t a recession, it’s a rerun. 📉💀 #inflation #AIBubbleBurst #QuantitativeEasingAgain #TrumpEconomyFail TikTok video by This Aged Poorly

After those results, the Democratic response to GOP pressure to cave on the shutdown should simply be

Can’t wait for the corporate media to call sweeping dem election results a “problem for the left.”

CNN Speaker Johnson I don’t know montage

So CBS is just going to be Fox Lite?

“Shame on you!”

Tweet from Ella Devi: canvassing for @ZohranKMamdani in the east village today and the actor who plays dr. strugis in young sheldon is in my canvassing group!! Photo of Ella with another canvasser and Wallace Shawn

On the other site, an 18-year-old Zohran canvasser described the legendary Wallace Shawn as "the actor who plays Dr. Sturgis on Young Sheldon" which is honestly adorable

Community resistance prevailed in Evanston, Illinois, where residents mobilized instantly. They shouted down and overwhelmed ICE GOONS ✊

OBAMA: “Is the economy working better for you? Because it sure has gotten better for Trump & his family… his billionaire friends, finance bros, well-connected corporations have seen their tax bill go down… But for ordinary families, costs have gone UP."

Outside Chicago—

State police and sheriff's officers at Broadview detention center are out in riot gear.

A large Halloween demo is being prevented from doing a Jericho walk through the intersection.

Arrests of protesters ongoing. Troopers have also assaulted multiple reporters already.

The thing about Johnson not swearing in Grijalva is that’s it a test for 2026.

If you think they will accept an outcome they don’t like, they will just Grijalva it.

So what’s the plan when the GOP says “we ain’t leaving, fuck you, make us.”

Because that IS what they are going to say.

Obama: When I think back to a year ago, I remember talking to some people, who would say, this election doesn't matter all that much. That however the next president ended up being, it wasn't going to matter to them. If nothing else, the last nine months should have cured us of that idea.

I’m just going to say it…

It’s pretty damn validating to hear Barack Obama say the same things we’ve been shouting for months, and longer.

Cool optics bro

NBC's new poll say the most important issue for deciding who to support for Congress is: "Protecting constitutional rights/protecting democracy."

Huge shoutout to Barack Obama — finally saying what we’ve been shouting for years. This fight for democracy, truth, and decency Thank you for always standing up for the good fight. 🙌🏽🙌🏽

OBAMA: “It’s like every day is Halloween… I will admit it’s even worse than I expected — but I did warn y’all. Check the tape.”

Nice To See President Obama out
Campaigning for 2 Democratic
Governor's. He's Still Brings IT........

Obama: It is not as if we didn't see some of this coming. I will admit it is worse than even I expected, but I did warn you all. I did. You can run the tape.

You can’t see it, but this is my surprised face.

Obama: The weird videos of a U.S. President with a crown on his head flying a fighter jet and dumping poop on protesting citizens… All of that is designed to distract you from the fact that your situation has not gotten better.
