Homeland Security agents knocked on doors in nine states asking people about voting. Some carried guns. Nurses sued. A federal judge ordered DHS to stop until the polls close. Trump’s regime needed a court order to quit scaring voters. Think about that.

Just to be clear... Prop 40 is a ONE-TIME retroactive tax. It applies ONLY to billionaires and would tax just 5% of their wealth — which grew 30% in 2025. California's billionaires would still be worth $2T+ AFTER the tax. The revenue will fund healthcare for millions of Californians. Vote YES.

It's time for a change. Vote for leaders like @abdulelsayed.bsky.social and @jocelynbenson.bsky.social who will work every day to make this country better.

After the recent Trump rallies, it's a novelty to see a president able to fill a venue again.

Ready for something new. Hungry for something better. Change is in the air.

Have the last 2 years been “amazing” for you and your family?

All these so-called “independent” Republicans will go right back to voting for Johnson as speaker, confirm every Trump nominee, vote with Trump on everything, and continue doing zero oversight on his corrupt regime. A vote for any one of them is a vote to continue all of that.

I keep reading that there have been no public executions in the United States for decades. Not true.

I talked to CNN for a little segment about clippers that just aired

“He's gunna go up to the Upper Peninsula and get a pretty cold welcome.” And the UP said…

James Talarico: The most corrupt politician in Texas, Ken Paxton, is everything that's wrong with this broken, corrupt system. He doesn't serve us. He serves himself. Since taking office, Ken Paxton has increased his net worth by $27 million. Ken Paxton now owns 15 homes.

Kroger just announced the largest layoffs in its history, with plans to cut 3,000 employees as it ramps up use of AI. Reminder that Kroger has spent $12.3B on stock buybacks since 2019 and paid its CEO $14M last year — 417x its median worker's pay. AI is turbo-charging corporate greed.

"The 2.25m barrels of diesel Putin offered Trump will have zero net impact on the world price of diesel. But accepting them will collapse the US-led sanctions regime on Russia—and align Trump with Putin against Ukraine's attacks on Russian energy production..." www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/1...

Still on what would have been deemed unlikely if not unthinkable not so long ago... 👇🏼 #economy #markets #energy

Susan Collins in 1996 vs. Susan Collins in 2026

Not happening, Donald! Just days after claiming it would be a “great discredit” if he didn’t win the Nobel Peace Prize, the prize went to South African anti-apartheid lawyer and human rights judge Navi Pillay.

Wow. We can’t believe this 🥹. Barnes & Noble just put WTF America?! on their Most Anticipated Nonfiction list. We wrote this for this community, and you're the reason it's having this moment before it's even out. Thank you, truly. If you haven't preordered, the link's here 👉 bit.ly/wtf-america-...

"You hired half the Third Reich to staff your office ... If John Lewis were marching today, Mike Collins would be grabbing a billy club" -- here's a supercut of Jon Ossoff SMASHING Mike Collins during tonight's debate

Gas prices have soared since the start of the war with Iran in late February. American car buyers are now seeking out more fuel-efficient cars, like hybrids. But unlike their Japanese and Korean counterparts, most American automakers sell very few hybrid vehicle lines. https://cnn.it/46Z5umF

The midterms are being flooded with dark money & Trump is doing everything he can to suppress the vote. But remember — WE THE PEOPLE outnumber Trump and his billionaire backers. Keep phoning. Keep canvassing. Keep getting out the vote for candidates on the side of working people. It is essential.

We need AI regulation yesterday. The incentive driving the doom scenario is simply greed. I don't take PAC money from OpenAI, or any AI corporation, or any corporation for that matter.

25th Amendment? We can’t even get network news to air it or even mention it. It’s a massive national media coverup to hide the fact the we have an addled president.

NEW AD: Today on House Hunters, Ken Paxton is shopping for a new house. Will he buy the three-story luxury lodge in Oklahoma? The condos at a wellness resort in Utah? The ocean-view property in Hawaii? (Spoiler alert: He won’t take one — he’ll take 15.)

Police have launched an investigation after a toddler pulled a loaded gun from his backpack at Children's World Early Learning Center, a daycare in Canton Township, Michigan.

Jack Smith deserves an apology for these baseless and FALSE accusations of perjury by my Republican colleague.

Even America.gov agrees: Donald Trump drove up your gas prices.

A phenomenal moment in the Senate. Eric Schmitt, R-Mo., claims he has evidence Jack Smith went to a HAWKS game in Atlanta. Smith denies it. Schmitt declares he has busted Jack Smith for perjury. Smith, vexed, says he went to HAWKEYES game in Maryland. WATCH IN FULL, UNINTERRUPTED

In which Eric Schmitt, rumored candidate for VP in an (ugh) JD Vance 2028 presidential run, pre-emptively loses 22 electoral votes in Georgia and Iowa

how fucking nutso is it that Donny considers the revenue that our government takes in to be 'profits' for his personal use? and it's insane that the press just goes along with it. thank you for your attention to today's post, in which I explain just how insane it all is. link is here: bit.ly/4AC7UFc

ProPublica has found multiple cases of women with underlying health conditions who died when they couldn’t access abortions. Tierra Walker, a 37-year-old mother, was told by doctors there was no emergency before preeclampsia killed her. (Published Nov. 2025)

We now have a poll showing Donald Trump a full MoE beneath the Bush Line. Ain’t that something? politicalwire.com/2026/09/21/t...

Trump and Vance to Zelenskyy 18 months ago: You are losing this war. You have no cards. Meanwhile, while Ukraine is kicking a much larger country’s ass who invaded it, Trump and Vance are losing to Iran.

How do we make teaching a sustainable career? We need: 🎒Education budget tied to the defense budget 🎒Teacher minimum wage 🎒Strong teacher unions 🎒Investment in the paraprofessionals that a kid needs to be their best learner and so teachers can focus on teaching

Ken Paxton deletes his tweet referring to Cypress, Texas as “Cyprus” after James Talarico calls him out.

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.

Reminder that Elon's DOGE recommended firing government workers at the... -FDA, which oversees Neuralink -FAA, which oversees SpaceX -USAID, which probed Starlink -CFPB, which oversees Tesla's financing arm and a potential payment platform on X. See what DOGE was really all about?

A minor detail is missing from the headline.

Photos obtained by CBS News reveal widespread damage to buildings and vehicles at multiple U.S. positions across the Middle East following Iranian missile and drone attacks “This is major damage to our bases that hasn’t been communicated to the American public,” one deployed service member told CBS

Bernie Sanders and Steve Bannon are showing how political figures who once wanted nothing to do with one another are joining forces in the face of AI proliferation, Toluse Olorunnipa reports:

Mike DODGERS is too cowardly to show up to debate me.
