What a good pic catch!

“He’s got the White House looking like Saddam Hussein opened up a Cheesecake Factory” — Obama

1) How can one individual have so much money that they can give a half billion dollars to a campaign? 2) How can any democratic political system allow any one party to accept this much money from one donor? 3) How terrified and desperate are both Musk and Trump right now?

Trump has made more stock trades in his second term than all 535 members of Congress combined.

A wild story: the CEO of a US energy company whose plans were discussed during the Witkoff-Kushner-Putin negotiations resigns. Why? He learned that his company's main investor is a sanctioned Russian company, not the UAE www.nytimes.com/2026/10/23/u...

The question is: Why did Trump derail peace talks?

🚨 NEW: Mary Peltola reacts to the Trump DOJ's lawsuit targeting Alaska's election results, calling it a “desperate attempt to silence Alaskans.” “This is exactly the kind of corruption that Alaskans are sick and tired of.”

Kushner also failed to disclose himself as an agent of a foreign government, having been paid nearly $2 billion in total by foreign leaders. trib.al/JC1elLM

Elizabeth Warren Is 💯% Correct...

BREAKING: The hepatitis B vaccine trial in Guinea-Bissau "will not move forward," the lead researcher says. “The solution is clear here: Take the money and vaccinate as many kids as you can,” @pauloffit.bsky.social told me: www.theguardian.com/world/2026/o...

If Democrats do take control of the Senate and House, I am REALLY not interested in a revenge tour of investigations. We don't have time for more of that mess. We need to get our house back in order and working for the people.

Outstanding. More of this, please. Elon Musk is a white nationalist troll using the billions he made off government contracts to destroy this nation. Light. Him. Up.

7th person dead in ICE custody this year in Texas alone: "His daughter said her dad had a heart condition, diabetes and high blood pressure. He had medicine with him when he was detained, but she said staff at the center wouldn’t 'give him his medications'...” www.texastribune.org/2026/10/18/m...

Gov. Greg Abbott has raised about $9 million from data center-related donors since July 2025, which accounts for about 13% of the donations he’s taken in during that time.

Interviews with suburban women in Texas, who tend to outvote men, reveal a combination of apathy toward GOP Attorney General Ken Paxton’s candidacy and an active shift by some conservatives toward his Democratic opponent.

#ResistanceUnited #ProudBlue #ONEV1 #DV1 🗣Texas! Look at two Senate candidates, @jamestalarico.bsky.social and his opponent, and ask, Who has the legislative record to support you? Who has a moral compass and represents Texas Values? Texans, please show your values.

Imagine if, four years after invading Iraq, we controlled only 20% of it and had suffered 1.3 million casualties. Would anyone call that “winning”? Of course not. But when it’s Russia, we’re supposed to believe Putin holds all the cards.

Zelenskyy on Trump: "I hope that he will change his decisions, because I think it's all mistakes. It will not help us and it will not help the United States. But it's not my choice. And I hope he will change his attitude to Putin ... we can't compare me and Putin. He's the aggressor."

Greg Abbott has renewed his border "emergency" 69 times. Crossings fell from 180,000 a month to about 8,000. The emergency didn't. Neither did the no-bid contracts: $5M+ since 2025, rifles included. Some emergencies just pay well. Why? #GOPCorruption #DV1 #ProudBlue #Voices4Victory #USDemocracy

NEW: The order to throttle Starlink (Starshield) came from the White House to the Pentagon. I still think Elon was involved, though. He’s currently a Pentagon employee as well www.reuters.com/world/europe...

This is about Ilhan Omar. But it's also about control, intimidation, & authoritarianism. The message is: we can do this to a member of Congress; no foreign-born American is safe. The administration is using fear as a tactic to discourage people from voicing opposition.

This is a great, heartfelt post from a guy I truly admire. I think it speaks to what many of us are feeling.

UNEARTHED: Ken Paxton caught on video partying with fugitives in Dubai. The fugitives were charged with healthcare fraud and helped bankroll Paxton’s campaign.

We have to vote for SANITY in a few weeks. Doing business with Putin, stealing our pay for self promoting ads, searching a lawmaker's home without cause, and a public execution?? it is only Monday! Enough! It is indeed time to flip some tables.

In the last 24 hours, Trump’s DOJ raided Ilhan Omar’s home over paperwork her dad filed when she was a child, oil passed $107, Russia shredded Trump’s “ceasefire” within hours, and the MAGA hit job on Talarico imploded. And that’s just the start.

Showing live executions for adults, teens and kids to see will produce mental health trauma in them! MAGA and Trump are out of control in their attempt to destroy our way of life!

LOL Ukraine hit a Russian data center and Russian bot activity immediately dropped to practically zero. Elon is mad hahahahahaha

Elect Candidates who will protect Social Security Republicans want to Raise the Retirement Age. Republicans want to Privitize Social Security. In five years, Congress will have to either take action or allow a 22% Social Security benefit cut to go into effect. go.bsky.app/42Pdf3e
