nyt website currently resembles one of those mock covers people made before 2016 election: economy floundering, war in the middle east, scandal-plagued cabinet sec, brazen corruption....

Congressmen Jamie Raskin said today that. Trump is mentioned in the totality of the Epstein files 1 million times - not a typo

Friends from Minneapolis reporting to me that things are at the point where folks are being hidden in other people's houses and we are in the "again" part of "never again" which the "never" was supposed to preclude

Khanna: There were two rounds of redactions. There was the original FBI redactions… and they did a second round of redactions at the DOJ. What they’re showing members now is the unredacted version of the DOJ’s redactions—not the original FBI redactions. They’re in blatant violation of the law.

this is actually really nice to hear

ICE is upset that ICE isn't welcome in restaurants after ICE ordered food at a restaurant, ate it, then arrested restaurant employees, and ICE believes this is someone else's fault, do I have that right?

As @skyeperryman.bsky.social says: We need to connect the dots. At the heart of the power grab in MN is a power grab to take our nation away from the people.

Skye joined @theweekendmsnow.bsky.social to explain how the admin's strategy is headed straight for our elections.

Holy shit. This speaks volumes about the midterms ahead.

"They say they're coming to save us from some evil? They're talking about our neighbors who take care of us ... Alex was murdered while he was helping. Mr Rogers said look for the helpers, & right now the helpers have a target on our forehead ... Mr Rogers would be here right now too, so I'm here."

This is 10th-grader Arnoldo Bazan.

A citizen.

Immigration agents grabbed him and put him in a chokehold.

"We're from the United States bro!' he screamed.

Agents took and sold his phone

And when he finally got home hours later, his shirt was ripped, he neck had angry, red welts, and he sobbed.

When you succumb to the cynicism, you are helping Trump. He wants you to think that all is lost, that he is all powerful, and that there is nothing we can do.

The fight for democracy is hard, but it is worth having. We have shown we can stand tall. We have shown we can win.

Protests mounting against ICE in various parts of D.C. tonight. In the middle of the U Street corridor, occupying the intersection with 14th Street: “Remember Renee Good,” one of the many signs here reads.

This is so important to realize.

probably not a great sign that Trump's assistant AG for civil rights uses a slur for people with disabilities

The Plan That Foretold Trump’s 2025 Reviewing Project 2025’s year of successes and shortcomings

A year ago, it wasn’t clear whether Project 2025 would amount to much. Today, it’s become the Trump era’s most effective policy initiative. In The Atlantic Daily, @dgraham.bsky.social reviews how Project 2025 transformed 2025:

CNN: Breaking news… this is big, we have learned that the justice department's case against former FBI director Jim Comey and the New York attorney general have both been dismissed

I just feel it necessary to explain that if this one line were true, what he’s saying is American consumers are paying a tax out of their own pockets to keep the global economy from collapsing.

LISA McCLAIN: Voter turnout from Republicans was not high. But I think part of that reason is because Republicans for the most part are happy with what's happening

TAPPER: Using that argument, your voters could be so happy that Democrats retake the House next year

This guy is so fuckin dumb.

One hour left, Virginia! The polls close at 7 PM, but if you’re in line at 7, you can still vote. Stay in line and make your voice heard.

And everyone who screamed about Hunter is silent.

Endless corruption.

People need to volunteer for local rescues and see what it is like to deal with medical bills from unvaccinated puppies and dogs.

GOP’s refusal to swear in Rep-elect Adelita Grijalva is a continuation of Jan. 6 and GOP’s rejection of democracy The GOP is anti-democracy party

GOP’s refusal to swear in Rep-elect Adelita Grijalva is a continuation of Jan. 6 and GOP’s rejection of democracy. This is not just about blocking the release of the Jeffrey Epstein file. It's also about GOP becoming increasingly hostile to democracy deanobeidallah.substack.com/p/gops-refus...

Government Shutdown: Funding Bill Blocked For 12th Time The government shutdown began at midnight on Oct. 1 as Democrats and Republicans appeared to be nowhere close to reaching a funding deal.

On day 22 of the Trump Shutdown, Senate Republicans are holding show votes, the House GOP won’t show up for work and Trump wants to see shows in his new ballroom.

In 10 days, more than 24 million working Americans will see their healthcare costs double and GOP leadership is living in la la land.

North Carolina lawmakers pass new map designed to give GOP an extra House seat North Carolina becomes the third state where Republicans have heeded Trump's call and approved new district lines ahead of next year's midterms.

North Carolina is just the latest state to approve a new gerrymandered House map, backed by Trump, aimed at protecting the Republican majority.

Prop 50 is California’s answer to level the playing field. #YESonProp50

WATCH - SIGNS SUPERCUT: Trump claims the signs and protests are funded by rich donors. Trump is lying. 👇🏽
