Jeffries can’t be the guy to lead us. Just can’t. But sequence is everything. Job One is to clean the GOP’s clock. Job Two is to clean our own house.

... a Trump Truth Social post last night made things a whole lot worse. He reiterated that the golf course will be closed starting Nov. 15 "to renovate and rebuild," prompting Judge Reyes to put DOJ No. 3 Stan Woodward on notice and to order him to appear in person at the next hearing to explain.

One of the best reflections on the mass mobilizations that took place against ICE in Minneapolis this winter. A must read. "Many of us will spend the rest of our lives reflecting back on what happened and the kind of people we became in these few short months. We will never be the same again."

Iran, Iraq, Syria, Lebanon - yeah, real tongue twisters there. Not straightforward easy to pronounce English names like Connecticut, Massachusetts, Illinois and Arkansas.

The hours. The uncomfortable conversations. The doubts. The late nights. The skipped bedtimes & the time away from family. In Serbia, students organized for nearly two years. They walked town to town, knocked doors, & had real conversations with their neighbors. They won. Thread 2/5🧵

If we start having the hard conversations, knocking doors... If we step outside our party lines. That's how they did it. That's how we do it too. I know so many of you are tired. I am too... Students in Belgrade are dancing in the streets because they didn't give up on each other. Thread 5/5🧵

Here’s another example of abuse. Same as the Dana Bash clip, he attacks her for not giving him time to speak, then gaslights her about what’s in his lawsuit. I bet a lot of women recognize this behavior.

It is short and so I assume they are looking into things but it is... interesting... that the NYT piece on the new House Dems report on Trump ties to Epstein simply does not mention the brand new rape allegation and says whatever this is instead www.nytimes.com/2026/10/26/u...

CBS deleted this post and reposted it admitting that their original one was misleading. And the misleading post from CBS was intentionally misleading, not an innocent mistake. CBS continues to lose credibility.
