GOP Rep. John Rose on GOP senators' taxpayer-funded payouts: "I'm calling on senators to disavow this, including Marsha Blackburn, who unfortunately apparently telegraphed she's planning to take advantage of this opportunity to put millions of dollars in her pocket at the expense of the taxpayer"

If you see a MAGA event with American flags just keep asking them “is this part of No Kings?”

Great way to spread awareness as well!

The same #WW2 vets who fought the #German #Nazis are having to fight another #German-rooted #fascist #American whose whole family refused to serve the draft, never mind fight in a war but they are launching their #ICE brigade onto the people

The Cycle of Ignorance (COI) starts very early in the MAGA life. Children are taught that all the woes they experience are due to people of color, immigrants, or LGBTQIA. They would be WINNERS if it weren’t for “those people” holding them back.

It’s an ugly sickness.

KARL: Why is the Defense Secretary afraid to interact with journalists who cover him?

JOHNSON: I reject the premise

KARL: The guy has only had 2 briefings and he basically forced the press out

JOHNSON: I can't remember a Secretary of Defense who has been so transparent and out in the open

I wonder if the attendees recall the movie theater scene from "Inglorious Bastards?"

This is a complete abdication of journalistic responsibility. A president posting something this insane and disgusting should be front and center in the news.

True story, Dr. Benjamin Rush, one of the signers of the Declaration of Independence, is one of my ancestors.
It’s an honor and privilege to carry on in his footsteps.

I was born & raised in the deep south. I grew up watching my uneducated white relatives blame immigrants & black people for the way their lives turned out, rather than their poor life choices.

Their hate is why I'm a Democrat.💙

Any media outlets that don’t address this video of Trump wearing a crown dumping shit on Americans is normalizing it.

As with everything else this authoritarian regime does, you’re either calling it out or normalizing it. There is no third option.

Wow. Lil Marco done fucked up.
Not only all of civil society hates his guts but so will MS13 & the dark gang underworld. These people are insane.

Rubio promised to betray U.S. informants to get Trump’s El Salvador prison deal To secure U.S. access to President Nayib Bukele’s notorious CECOT prison, Rubio agreed to turn over several MS-13 leaders central to a long-running Justice Department investigation.

This is sick. Several of the MS13 gang members Trump traded to Bukele so he could have access to CECOT prison for deportees were actually COOPERATORS with law enforcement. He betrayed them. wapo.st/4nbNiM4

All week the pro-Israel and pro-Trump supporters screamed at us, in unison: why aren’t you celebrating the ceasefire??

Because we knew it wouldn’t last. But even I didn’t think it’d be over in less than a week. What a complete & utter humiliation for Trump, thanks to Netanyahu.

Sanders: Today, October 18th 2025, there are more people out on the streets in more communities all over our country than we have ever seen in American history

Spotify is running ICE ads. I went to cancel on mobile and saw that this isn’t allowed on mobile. They make you cancel on desktop. You think that’s gonna stop me, Spotify? I will erase you and forget you ever existed.

THOU SHALT CANCEL SPOTIFY!!!

This is a long way of saying the Trump admin more than likely conducted an illegal operation based on bad intel and murdered innocent people.

Threads post by gambleganders: Hey, looking for Antifa 800# so I can find a Civil Rights Attorney after my arrest at the Fairhope, AL No Kings protest. Anyone have those digits?

For those asking after the woman who was arrested for wearing a penis costume to a No Kings protest in Fairhope, Alabama, @gambleganders.bsky.social says she was released after being charged with disorderly conduct and resisting arrest.

I told her I bet Bluesky could find her a lawyer!
