I'll summarize this: Mamdani asked NYers to keep air conditioning at 78 degrees. A wave criticism hit online. A MSNBC broadcast pointed out the US Department of Energy recommends that 78 degree figure. Immediately after, the US Department of Energy deleted 6,000 web pages related to energy saving.

Based on this Virginia ruling, the Tennessee and Florida maps should both also be shot down. If not, Virginia should just pull a Tennessee and change the rules to ram it though the legislature. 🤷‍♂️

Speaker Johnson, we are calling on you to bring the House back to DC IMMEDIATELY! The Cabinet needs to invoke the 25th Amendment. But Congress can’t just sit on its hands and wait for that to happen when the President is threatening to commit war crimes TONIGHT.

Folks, @markey.senate.gov is on record. Please call your Senators and ask if they agree with Markey and let us know how they respond. It’s all hands on deck to pressure Congress today. The man threatened a genocide. This cannot stand.

Senator Ed Markey@markey.senate.gov

Completely unstable and perilous. The House must bring up impeachment articles, and the Senate needs to remove a president who wants to commit war crimes. We cannot sit idly by as Donald Trump threatens to end an entire civilization.

"You can't have guns. You can't walk in with guns," the president said in response to a question from PBS News' Liz Landers. Jan 27, 2026 1:44 PM EST That's it. That's the whole ballgame.

Is there any evidence, besides a single tweet and photo of a plane aisle, that Ted Cruz is fleeing Texas right before another major winter storm? I'd like to shout from the rooftops, but that's pretty flimsy so far.

So, how many will wake up now? Or will it still be a "hoax?"

“He raped me.” “Donald J Trump had raped her along with Jeffrey Epstein.” “She was found with her head ‘blown off’… there was no way it was a suicide.” Now we’re starting to see why Trump was hiding the Epstein files, and it probably gets much worse.

Start sending messages now for the (hopefully) December vote. Simple like, “I look forward to your yes vote to pass the extension of ACA premium subsidies that roughly 3/4ths of the country support.” Use/share this spreadsheet (bit.ly/Nokings) as a resource to hold Congress accountable to the vote.

Many Americans are hurting right now because of the shutdown, but caving to Republicans won’t end the hurt. Trump and his lapdogs continue to assert that they alone have the power to slash whatever programs they don’t like. Deals with this regime are meaningless.

Yes, Mr. President: You’re right. We do have “the worst health care” of any major country. Despite spending twice as much per capita, we are the only major country not to guarantee health care to all as a human right. The solution: Medicare for All.

Caving on a deal that doesn’t fix health care is, and always has been, a giant betrayal of the American people. Hold the line. Save health care. I’m a NO on anything that doesn’t extend ACA subsidies.

Also this would certainly help to ameliorate the current housing crisis in the city (PS: No one's moving)

You laugh, but this is how the exododus went extinct

Someday there will be a reckoning for the serial killings that the US government is engaged in on the oceans. Another admin should not refuse to extradite indicted officials to Intl Criminal Courts and senior military officers “just following orders” should not be exempted.

I feel like I say this every year but I really need people to hear it. Halloween is the best American holiday. Just kids outside welcomed into their world, marching around together, showing off their costumes to the elderly, parents meeting parents, neighbors catching up with neighbors.

It's hard to overstate how fully engaged Chicago and the surrounding suburbs are in this ICE madness. There are neighborhood watch alerts, spontaneous crowds gathering outside schools at pick up & drop off plus madly blowing whistles and honking car horns, this city is fighting back and hard.

Trump: “I don't think we're gonna ask for a declaration of war. I think we're just gonna kill people. Okay? We're gonna kill them. They're gonna be, like, dead.” What. The. Fuck?

The tyrant tears the People's house down to raise a hall of mirrors. This is not a remodel, it’s an assault. The unmasking of a king. Our country is asleep while the echo of a republic bleeds out beneath the ballroom floor. These images should enrage every patriotic American.

In a coordinated move, multiple federal agencies joined BlueSky yesterday and turned to trolling the opposition. Our Assessment on Democratic Decline warns of this autocratic practice: attacking the free press and narrowing the space in which factual reporting can safely operate without retaliation.

An ICE agent arrested for drunk driving with his kids in the car tries to stop the arrest by racially profiling the officers (“Are you Haitian?”) These are the agents Stephen Miller & Kristi Noem are hiring to carry out their cruel immigration policies

James Talarico: I don’t see politics as left vs. right. I see it as top vs. bottom. The billionaires are hurting all of us. They’re closing our schools, gutting our health care, raising our taxes... I hope to build a movement across divides to take power back for working people

It is mass resignation time at DOJ. Don‘t be complicit. These goons are largely incompetent and the authoritarian takeover will fail if they have to run things on their own.
