The world joined us and said, “No Kings.”

The most reckless, stupid administration E-V-E-R. Nothing comes close.

When this story broke earlier today Republicans claimed it was probably fake news since it was reported by the NYT. Now multiple media outlets have confirmed it, including Fox. Hegseth and Vance are complete morons for pulling this dumb stunt.

We love our Marines and owe a debt of gratitude to Camp Pendleton, but next time, the Vice President and the White House shouldn’t be so reckless with people’s lives for their vanity projects. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/19/u...

This is what solidarity looks like. Together, we will win.

@thedailybeast.bsky.social Scientists have raised the alarm about loss of coral reefs due to climate change for years. The canary in the coal mine is now upon us as corals die in massive numbers. www.sciencenews.org/article/cora...

Let me get this straight: the party that defends dark money, which by definition can come from overseas since the donor is kept secret, is complaining about foreign influence?

This is your regular reminder that executive orders are not royal decrees. Because America has no king.

Just so I am keeping everything straight…the government can’t tell you to wear a mask because FREEDOM!!!!, but it can decide you are a “terrorist” and send you to a foreign gulag without due process and throw away the key. That right?

Sounds an awful lot like Trump’s El Salvador slave dungeon!

This is not a prison. CECOT is a torture/concentration/death camp. No one in there is ever expected to return to society. The US has so far sent 238+10 men to this hellscape. Why? Seemingly for existing while brown + having random tattoos. 75 percent have no criminal record. Being them home!

"'This is not just an NC problem. This is an existential threat to democracy...I worry this is honing a playbook to be used in the future, that people in power hold on to power by selectively challenging election outcomes they don’t like'" - Justice Allison Riggs www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

💥 BREAKING: Levi Strauss shareholders voted today to reject a proposal calling on the company to cease / abolish all DEI efforts (tally TBD). LEVI Board: “Diversity and inclusion principles are critical in ensuring that our products reflect and are relevant to our diverse global consumer base.”

One of the most shocking things I have read for a while: t.co/lg46ijHLDF

🚨 Meteorologists are sounding the alarm: severe weather forecasts are already slipping due to staffing cuts at the National Weather Service. Lives are on the line. 📉 Forecast quality down ⏱️ Lead times shorter ⚠️ Systems stretched thin Call Congress now—demand they fully restore NOAA.

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

Now we know why Trump is supporting Putin over Zelensky. You won't be surprised. www.yahoo.com/news/kremlin...

Q: "How do you respond to Governor Newsom?" Sen. Van Hollen: "I think Americans are tired of elected officials or politicians who are all finger to the wind...Anybody who can't stand up for the Constitution and the right of due process doesn't deserve to lead."

The GOP's new family values takes 'creepy' to a whole new level www.alternet.org/gop-babies/

In exactly one weeks time, it will be 3 years since the last defenders of Mariupol were ordered to surrender to the russian invaders. I was separated from my comrades after 4 days of interrogation and handed over to the secret service. What followed was 4 months of torture. Fuck russia.

Over 200 alleged gang members have been deported to the El Salvador prison system. They've already made mistakes. Here are the conditions: www.cnn.com/2025/03/17/a...

You will be shocked at how Russia disseminates propaganda to the masses: www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/201...

"On Tyranny" is a #1 NYT bestseller again. I wish the moment were different. But I’m glad the book is useful. And grateful for all the kind words about putting the 20 lessons to work. snyder.substack.com/p/twenty-les...

Booker: "This isn't just about Mr. Garcia. This is about every American understanding that this president is making an assault on the due process rights that are afforded to people in our country ... you cannot disappear people off American streets."

The U.S is the wealthiest country in the history of the world. We should not have the highest rate of child poverty of nearly every major country on earth. We should have the lowest.   It's time to end this international embarrassment & create an economy that works for all.

A strong trade union movement improves the standard of living for all people. There is a reason why we are the only major country not to guarantee health care for all or have paid family and medical leave. We must grow the trade union movement in the United States.

It’s clear: Trump and Musk want to make it harder and harder for the elderly and disabled to utilize Social Security. They don’t care how much pain they cause. Their ultimate goal is to make Social Security dysfunctional, to privatize it and to let Wall Street take it over.

Netanyahu loves Trump's plan to force 2 million people from Gaza & turn it into a billionaires’ Riviera. He calls it "voluntary migration.” It's not voluntary if you bomb & starve those who stay. It’s ethnic cleansing. It's a war crime. No more military aid to Netanyahu.

Can anyone in Congress PLEASE write a bill(s) that gives immediate severance pay & food/housing/medical relief to the thousands of government workers who had their entire world slashed to bits through DOGE heartless firings? 😒

McGovern: "How is any company supposed to forecast for their future, build a plant, hire workers, if they have no idea what the hell this president is gonna do in his next tweet? ... I need a neck brace to be able to get through all this."

Things are going great for Mike Johnson in the House www.notus.org/congress/tru...

Are you a woman who changed your name when you got married? Congress is considering a bill that could make it much harder for you to vote. Call your rep—this is not a drill. indivisible.org/resource/cal...

Justice Ketanji Brown-Jackson just wrote a perfect Epitaph for the Roberts Court.
