"If there is one thing that Zach Lahn, the Republican nominee for governor of Iowa, definitely does not want to talk about, it’s his connection to the Koch family." https://www.nytimes.com/2026/10/25/us/politics/zach-lahn-iowa-governor-kansas-kochs.html

Jesse Ventura to Piker: "Here's what pisses me off -- I did 2 tours, 17 months. So did my brother. Southeast Asia. That was at the same time Donald Trump was running and hiding like the coward he is. Why didn't he join us in the Vietnam War? I've heard him talk. He said he should be a general!"

EL-SAYED: I get that the President takes personal offense to my first name. He doesn't mind as much when it's the Saudis who are funding his son-in-law's private equity. Doesn't seem to mind as much when it's the Qataris who are giving them a $400 million private jet…

Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was driving his construction crew to work when an ICE officer shot and killed him in Houston. He wasn’t even the person ICE was looking for. Now Texas voters are leaving their “I Voted” stickers at his memorial. #BlueWaveIn10Days

Criminal Trump, Continues To Bribe Voters,Only If He Wins.......?

Zelenskyy: The most important thing today is that Starlink and Starshield operations have been restored to the speeds we had before the restrictions.

OBAMA: The big trade war he's starting now is with that well-known evil empire: Canada. These are the people who gave us maple syrup and Martin Short.

Obama is awesome 👇

Omg, I love him so much 🤣😍

Obama: "You got the defense sec who is like a laser focused on important matters like the jawline & testosterone level of our troops, and livestreaming executions because that's how he thinks you cultivate that manly warrior spirit. How much time do you think this man spends in front of the mirror?"

OBAMA: When I was president, all these Republicans are all deficits, deficits, debt, debt. You got to do something about it. And now—$40 trillion—Crickets. Somehow deficits only matter when a Democratic president is in office

After the recent Trump rallies, it's a novelty to see a president able to fill a venue again.

🚨BREAKING: On behalf of Mary Peltola's campaign and the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, Elias Law Group has filed to fight DOJ's lawsuit to rig the Alaska Senate election. We will win this case, Mary will win this election, she will be certified and seated.

FBI Director Kash Patel wants a one-year fixed price “sole source contract" with the UFC "to provide defense tactical technical training to special agents." This isn't going to end well. govtribe.com/file/governm...

BREAKING: the court has paused the Trump admin tree removal at East Potomac Golf Links, where we are contesting the dumping of toxic East Wing debris & creating a Trump golf course We raced to court with partners Democracy Forward & Lowell & Assoc, & filed for an emergency hearing--today at 10am!

When Jesus healed the sick, he didn’t ask for a deductible. When he fed the hungry, he didn’t price gouge for a profit. When the Hebrew prophets saw corruption, they spoke truth to power. When I take on this corrupt system, I’m doing it on biblical grounds.

The Trump administration is airing a taxpayer-funded ad in which the president vows to “demolish the deep state” and “drive out the globalists.” The ad ends with the message: “Paid for by the U.S. Government.”

Talking about my struggles with being overweight still makes me uncomfortable, since weight can carry moral judgment in ways that other health challenges don't. But that fear stops too many struggling from getting treatment that could extend their lives.

You know, if you *really* cared about the wellbeing of women in college, instead of carping about the statistically insignificant number of trans athletes in sports minding their own business, you’d be railing against these Cornell fraternity cretins who drugged and gang-raped a passed-out women:

Abbas Araghchi, the Iranian foreign minister: "In 2015, we had a deal, we remained committed to that deal, it was the US that withdrew with zero justification"

The United States is deporting parents without their children, leaving babies behind in America, @caitlindickerson.bsky.social reports. She spoke with the parents who don’t know if they’ll see their kids again, and the caretakers left to watch the children:

Another BIG update in my lawsuit against Todd Blanche: he has now responded to each allegation in the Complaint & it’s obvious I've gotten under his skin! Blanche’s Answer is petty, attacking me for just doing my job. Why this filing moves the case closer to conclusion: youtu.be/dDsuoxktxT4?...

ICE BEHIND THE MASKS HAVE NAMES 2 masked agents threatened to arrest Robert Peck for legally observing them. He sued. “And now, because of a lawsuit, the (ICE) agents have names.” A Hylton 📌Nicholas Lapointe 📌Christopher Semler I hope more people take ICE to court when their rights are violated.

IDK how anyone thinks Paxton is good for Texas. 21 people were murdered in Uvalde, including 19 children. Calling that part of God’s “plan” is beyond grotesque. Some comments reveal more about a politician than any campaign ad ever could. This is one of them.

Ken Paxton keeps dodging debates. So I called his cell to invite him to a debate on Fox News. He didn’t pick up.

They warned us Mamdani would impose Sharia law. Instead, he unleashed the real threat: line dancing in Bryant Park.

Room empties out at the UN as Netanyahu begins his speech.

The Trump admin admitted it made a mistake in illegally deporting this man TWICE, but — like it initially did with Kilmar Abrego Garcia — it's defying a court order & refuses to bring him back. This federal judge is right to hold the admin in contempt. There must be a penalty for flouting the law.

Here is what Democracy Docket is tracking today: Total Active Cases: 197 Active Voting Rights Cases: 160 Active Redistricting Cases:  37 Active Anti-Voting Cases: 78 Active Pro-Voting Cases: 82 Active DOJ Lawsuits: 29 www.democracydocket.com

Actress Susan Sarandon being arrested earlier today for protesting Benjamin Netanyahu’s speech at the United Nations. One is speaking out against genocide, one is committing it. One was arrested, one was not.

DILLEY DETENTION CENTER NUMBER 2 Call it a “staging facility” all you want. The contract says detention. There’s playground equipment behind the fence. And Dilley has already held children far beyond the roughly 20-day Flores limit. Now they’re building “Dilley 2.” We know what this is!

Per his lawyer, Blanche has produced to the judge the unredacted handwritten FBI interview notes of a victim who alleges sexual & physical abuse by Felon Trump. Here's the latest, incl. Blanche’s attempts to get a stay from the appeals court for foreign language documents. youtu.be/IEhnvAhlitw?...

Trump tried to bypass Carney re tariffs + he's trying to interfere with Québec elections! 🤔 didn't the 🤡 say that Canada had nothing Americans needed? Trending on Canadian news tonight. 🤬🤬

BREAKING: SCOTUS, for a third time, rejects efforts to upend Missouri’s congressional map. Criticizing the Eighth Circuit’s actions, the Supreme Court’s order stated, “Given this Court’s two prior orders in this litigation, our conclusion that this was error should come as no surprise.”

Who else is way past impeachment and wants REAL accountability? 🙋‍♀️ I do. Who’s with me? #USDemocracy #RisingBlue

DoorDash spent $1.4M trying to stop Zohran Mamdani from becoming mayor. This week's historic $131.5M enforcement action against DoorDash for underpaying NYC delivery workers shows why. Yet another reminder that the only thing that can beat organized money is organized people.

Thanks to everyone from across Canada and the world who spoke up about changing the name of Trump Avenue in Ottawa. We don't name streets after gangsters and sexual predators. Good work people. www.ctvnews.ca/ottawa/artic...

ICE brutally detain woman's gardener-right in front of her house. 4 goons drag and violently pull man out of truck head-first. Kneel on his back after pinned down to pavement. "I can't breathe! I can't breathe!" he cries out. Incident occurred in Everett, Washington.

LAPD cops working for ICE contractors off duty — while the department fights to keep its moonlighting records hidden. That is the accusation now being leveled directly at LAPD leadership after a judge ordered the records turned over.
