I do not know what form our resistance will take over the next several years. It may well be, though, that we will be called upon to stand up for our fellow Americans, in ways large and small. We are likely going to have to be loud. Never be afraid to become ungovernable.

What’s that I hear, Florida? You’re lowering the child labor laws to “allow” 14-17 year olds to work overnight in the fields, on a school night? And you don’t have to even pay minimum wage or give them meal breaks. It will be kids from poor families.

In case facts still matter

Per Jennfer Welch: Elon Musk will be remembered as the richest man who killed the poorest people. And you have to wonder about the seemingly bottomless greed and depravity.

If the people of Nebraska are willing to cheer for San Diego or Los Angeles getting bombed, then I’m absolutely fine with every farmer in Nebraska going bankrupt and losing their farms. These are the people who are funding your welfare-you are literally biting the hands that feed you.

Season of the witch: Kansas Republicans party through the midterms like it’s 1692 kansasreflector.com/2026/10/19/s... Anyone else embarrassed by their state? I guess they couldn't find any immigrant families to accuse of eating household pets.

You know how desperate Republicans are? I saw an ad last night featuring Rand Paul trying to stump for Roger Marshall. Rand Paul? I guess he’s the best they can do, having lost all the bots from the Russian data farms

Question for the soybean farmers: what are you planting next year (assuming you’re planting anything) since Trump wrecked your markets? Yeah, China has signed 20-year contracts with Brazil. So, what’s the plan?

Hope to see you all at the No Kings protest this Saturday. And remember to VOTE!

BREAKING: We just filed a Hatch Act complaint over the outrageous raid on Ilhan Omar's home Officials can't use criminal power to affect an election. This is the textbook case @democracydefendersfund.org & @rwpusa.bsky.social👇

Please take this viral! 🙏

If people didn’t “deserve” relief from their crushing student loan repayments, why do farmers and ranchers deserve it? They didn’t *need* that new combine, right? And they were already counting on getting government subsidies, right? I miss the days when we used to subsidize education.

For the Kansans here:

MAGAt farmers seem to have thought that, after all the migrant workers were deported, Black people would come work their fields? Outrageous. Like so many other things, they failed to really understand current events. No one is rushing to fill those $10/hr 11-hour days in 100F heat.

The people screaming Democrats are communists want the government to steer industry, wall off trade, hand out checks, punish dissenters, pick economic winners and losers, and call the whole thing “free-market capitalism.”

No kidding

Mike Rogers wants to put a data center in your backyard because he's getting rich off of them.

Families across the country – including in Minnesota – are facing rising health insurance premiums after the Trump administration let the health care premium tax credits expire.

MAGAts are the dumbest people in the world. Welfare was invented for white people. They thought cutting SNAP & USAID would punish Blacks & Latinos. Instead, it’s closed markets for farmers & ranchers, and cut their neighbors’ off from food security. Racism is at the root of this mindset.

The people I really feel sorry for are the kids of rural MAGAts. The kids are not responsible for their parents’ votes. But they’re getting painted with the same brush. I suspect most of them will be going no contact with those parents as soon as possible.

It's inconceivable to me how someone who lost in a free & fair election can incite an angry mob to attack his own government, (the very definition of treason) & be allowed to run for any office ever again.

MI Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed unloaded on Trump over soaring gas prices and the war: “When you’re the president of the United States and people are struggling with gas, you don’t sit there and talk about your new helipad or your drapes in a ballroom.” “You actually go and do your damn job.”

Let me help you remember how dumb MAGAts are. Bud Light pisses them off, so they buy cases of it and film themselves shooting them up. Keurig makes them mad, so they film themselves throwing the machines off roofs. They don’t even understand a boycott is done BEFORE you buy the targeted goods.

Got a joke for you all. Why did the truckers do a convoy to Washington D. C. during the Biden presidency? Because they could still AFFORD it back then. Now they’ve gotten what they voted for.

They lied during their Senate confirmation hearings. They should be impeached; lying constitutes perjury and/or high crimes and misdemeanors.

For those who have forgotten the past 40 years: Tax cuts for the rich ...don’t trickle down Boosting military spending ...doesn’t bring peace Slashing regulations ...doesn’t create jobs Folks, we’ve seen this all before.

🙋‍♀️ seriously..

I requested this report last August. It makes clear what we already knew: the Trump Administration’s Alligator Alcatraz jail is horrific. “Does not align with standards for humane treatment” is an understatement. It's shameful.

Your regular reminder: If the Russians stop fighting, the war ends. If the Ukrainians stop fighting, their land will be occupied, their leaders will be killed, their history and language will be erased, their children will be kidnapped to serve Russia.

Mike Rogers helped architect legislation to EXPAND the opioid epidemic. Why? He took money from big pharma. Corporate, captured, and cowardly.
