Do you see the people sling? Slinging the subs of angry men. It is the sandwich of a people Who will not be slaves again! When the mustard in your heart Echoes the mustard in your wrap There is a fight about to start When ICE agents come! Sean Dunn, thank you for your service! 🫡

Police in Delhi are responding to peaceful protests with seemingly unnecessary or excessive force & have wrongfully detained thousands of people. The Modi government should stop throwing protesters in jail & instead engage with them on the right to vote & fair elections. www.hrw.org/news/2026/10...

This is what Republican oligarch PAC money is being spent on in Texas. A call to action for racist scumbags. I think this might backfire - SMS messages like this are gonna get me to the early voting sites as soon as they open to vote Talarico!

Well I just got one of these today. I live in Texas and I couldn't believe this shit. I can't wait to vote for Talarico. I sure as hell didn't click their link, that's a cookie I definitely will abstain from. Like, its just right out in the open now isn't it?

Absolutely disgusting. Even objectivists shouldn't want this. Robbing your workers and the government is looting. Pay workers according to their value, not what you can force them to accept.

The amount of Amazon workers relying on SNAP and Medicaid has nearly tripled since 2020. — while Amazon’s annual profits soared by over 550%. It’s the same story everywhere: corporate profits are at record highs, while workers’ share of the economy is at a record low. We must unrig the system.

20th century reenactment village: People would drive in gasoline powered cars to this gathering place called Pizza Hut. At that time, meat was still harvested from animals. They even had a dish called the "meat lovers" which assembled several different animals on a circle made from wheat paste.

The most powerful rising force in American politics today is anti-establishment fury at a rigged economic system. Corporate Democrats refuse to see how big money has corrupted America. They — and their billionaire donors — are some of the biggest enablers of Trump's neo-fascism.

Did you vote for making cancer patients get back to work or die, because they are freeloaders? If so, then you're the one who's really sick. Making death panels that they feared an actual reality.

Appalling cruelty — and all to fund more tax cuts for the rich.

Is this all so that he can have medical evacuation on standby now that he's seen Mitch and Lindsey bite the dust, or is it because his swollen ankles are too risky to walk on grass?

200 years ago, my ancestor signed the Texas Declaration of Independence. He wrote: “Any duty that would advance the cause of Texas I feel anxious and ever ready to perform…” As I accept your nomination for the US Senate, I make that same commitment to you.

Agent assisted coding is hard. I have trouble getting the right amount of control. It's like I'm used to walking everywhere I go, but then I ride a horse. Faster, but I have to learn how to control this other entity. Sometimes it just gallops off and I'm thinking "Whoa! Whoa big fella."

Pregnant? 🤰 Leading evidence-based health orgs recommend 4 vaccines during your pregnancy: 💉 Flu 💉 COVID 💉 RSV (around 32-36 weeks) 💉 Tdap (around 27-36 weeks) Trusted groups like ACOG & American Academy of Pediatrics endorse these vaccines because they help protect both moms and babies

RFK Jr. was told to tone down his anti-vaccine rhetoric ahead of the midterms, but guess that doesn’t extend to censorship. A COVID vaccine study showing reduced hospitalizations, slated for MMWR publication, was stopped by Dr Jay. 💚 to those who spoke out about this. Science won't be silenced.

washingtonpost.comCDC won’t publish report showing covid shots cut likelihood of hospital visitsThe report, which had cleared the agency’s scientific-review process, had been delayed. It now won’t be published at all, people familiar with the decision told The Post.

They laughed at me last year when I implemented my investment strategy of "hide all my money under a sack of potatoes" but who is laughing now? Well, not me because being right is hard to celebrate when people are getting killed, but also not them.

Let this sink in for a minute. Vermont is under attack by a real life cartoon character with real lives at stake. It's like "home alone" was a training video, except we know they don't have time to watch a feature film before graduation.

The global reproductive rights organization Ipas will be receiving "multi millions" from TED's Audacious Project. This is the first time the project has funded an organization that works specifically in abortion access and care since the initiative was developed in 2018.

goodgoodgood.coTED makes multi-million-dollar investment to boost safe abortion in 10 countriesThis is the first time TED’s Audacious Project has invested in an organization specifically focused on abortion access and care.

Remember the days when Republicans were terrified of government death panels deciding who should get a medical treatment? Now imagine that for real, but the decision is made by AI slop.

Isn't it very strange that the people who were terrified about the long term risks of vaccines don't seem to be worried about the long term risks of GLP-1 and weight loss drugs? Oh, i see. It allows oligarchs to make more money on the backs of their employees.

Let's tinker with your metabolism so you'll be able to work faster. When are the amphetamines being distributed? This isn't a knock against anyone who has a medical need for this drug. It's about questioning why this particular drug is being targeted for discounts.

I give you the Democrats response to the State of the Union. Just a low drone. Where was Jasmine Crockett? Where was Chris Murphy? Where was Al Green? I want a speech about putting bodies on the gears. Trump makes me sick at heart, not mildly concerned.

I have nothing against Spanberger. She gave a James Madison speech when we needed Patrick Henry or Sam Adams. If you want to rally people in affordability, just look at Sanders and AOC. The moderate approach got us Trump in the first place.

The people of Minnesota have issued a call that is being answered by every state that ICE tries to oppress. The same call that the people of Massachusetts once issued to all the colonies. The call that the people of Alabama made for freedom. Maine is answering the call. www.wmtw.com/article/port...

wmtw.comAnti-ICE protesters march through Portland after gathering in Monument SquareThe protest was held Friday, when dozens of Maine businesses were closed as part of a nationwide demonstration against U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement operations.

I am now in favor of the golden ballroom that replaces the East Wing. It will be an excellent venue for war crimes tribunals, and then it can stand as a memorial for all future Presidents to contemplate as they look out the window.

ICE operates without accountability. More funding is a blank check to continue the disastrous and deadly actions we've seen in Minnesota, including reported violence against people with disabilities. Join us in telling the Senate: no more tax dollars for ICE and CBP! act.nilc.org/page/93101

act.nilc.orgTell Congress: No More Tax Dollars for ICE & CBPUrge your representatives to reject more money for ICE detention.

The DHS $64.4 billion bill passed, with seven Democrats voting in its favor. They were Representatives Henry Cuellar (Texas), Tom Suozzi (New York), Vicente Gonzalez (Texas), Laura Gillen (New York), Marie Gluesenkamp Perez (Washington), Jared Golden (Maine), and Don Davis (North Carolina).

“In apparent blissful ignorance of the country’s ICE-induced bedlam, several House Democrats voted alongside nearly every Republican member to give more money to the immigration agency.” newrepublic.com/post/205604/...

When something as odious as this gets said, you can't wait for the chair to recognize you. You can't sit passively and let it go unchallenged. Why didn't the Democrats in the committee shout "Hear, hear!" and pound the table in solidarity?

JUST IN: #ICE is mad that they can’t use the public restrooms in Minnesota without being confronted by people who are protecting their city.🤷🏾‍♀️
