“The billionaires… the billionaires…”

Ramaswamy has produced an attack ad weaponizing the rape of his opponent, Amy Acton, when she was 12 years old. It features Acton’s mother, who abandoned Acton after she was raped by her step-father, fleeing the state with her husband. Here is the corporate money helping fund that ad.

Manhattan NY, Who is she?

We are sensing a pattern

Meta took down the No Kings organizing page today - the biggest day of protest this fall. They provided zero explanation. It stayed down for the entire afternoon until most of the protests were done. Outrageous. Put this on the January investigation list.

With the help of Republican officials, ICE has quietly arrested hundreds of people in Florida per day. Watch the latest dispatch from journalist Amanda Moore (@noturtlesoup17.bsky.social) out of southwest Florida:

This is happening all over rural America. We need to wake up, people. There's no Greg Bovino in his Nazi coat to blow whistles it. It's daily Gestapo-type terror, aided by the banality of evil local cops www.sltrib.com/news/2026/10...

More great reporting from @philinvestigates.com

Friendly reminder: This mess was created by Republicans. Abandoning ship won’t make us forget their role in Trump’s corruption. @alsobrooks.senate.gov

well well well, if it isn’t the consequences of his own actions

this is absolutely incredible, and it's something everyone who stares solely at the errors column will completely overlook at season's end

Upwards of 200,00 people may have lost their jobs today; or will in the upcoming days. There is a palpable sense of fear among the Haitian community right now. They need your support.

The job of the AG is to enforce the law Todd Blanche fired a career pardon attorney for refusing to rubber stamp Trump's agenda & then sent US Marshals to her door If the Senate confirms Blanche, it won’t be confirming an AG, it will be confirming Trump’s personal attorney -TN

Rep. Seth Magaziner: "ICE agents shot and killed two more innocent people in broad daylight. In both cases, the people they killed weren't even the people they were looking for. In both cases, they shot and killed people who were on their way to work in front of their families."

Rep. Yassamin Ansari: "The president's paramilitary secret police force continues to roam American streets and murder people in broad daylight in cold blood…It is not a mistake. ICE agents are completely out of control, and that is on purpose. That is their mission."

FFS. LG thought he could outlast Trump and then claim he didn't say "Mr. Pres, you're not far behind God". Stop pretending this asshole has any more morals than an alley cat because he was nice to you. Hitler had a fucking dog. Here's LG from people who are not deceived:

Guys I can’t keep doing this independently. I need a job. If you know of a place—advocacy, OSINT org, think tank, left media, etc—where I could take this work in-house, pls let me know. I admire the folks making independent work for them, but I am collapsing under the weight and the lack of impact.

Lorenzo Salgado Araujo lived in the United States for 35 years, built a small business, and achieved his dream of building a home for his family. Yesterday, on his way to work, ICE shot and killed him. @adriancarrasquillo.bsky.social talked to his sons about who their father was.

Read the full story:

ICE is engaged in a very large escalation nationwide, with the agency claiming to be hitting record arrest numbers amid the return of quotas. This has gotten very little attention from the media because ICE learned lessons from the chaotic disasters of Kristi Noem’s tenure. Keep a watch.

You can’t make this shit up.

“'I’ve never experienced anything like this in my entire life,' the congresswoman said, fighting back tears. "She described the way people were laying down inside as “like sardines.” “'It is frightening in there,' she said. 'It is disgusting'..." azmirror.com/2026/04/10/i...

Legacy media is failing democracy. Rather than just complain, I did something about. Six years ago I started Democracy Docket from scratch. Now it has more than 400,000 subscribers. But to help protect democracy, it needs to grow and scale. Subscribing now. bit.ly/4qmEiFz

Marc Haynes’ wonderful ROGER MOORE story.

Independent media can be part of the solution but the problem is that only the politically engaged will find it. Lower engaged people will keep consuming legacy media for the most part unaware of what's happening and they'll get moved to the right. And it will help the fascists win elections.

@hillaryclinton.bsky.social: "I don't understand why it's so difficult for the press to have a consistent narrative about how dangerous Trump is."

Massie goes full beast mode today. Gets on the house floor, shreds the DOJ and starts naming names from the Epstein files.

Get on the damn bridge! 🗣️

Donald Trump will HATE this ad when he sees it during the Olympic hockey final. Let’s win gold. And then win back our country. LFG USA 🏅🔥🇺🇲

OK, who made this? 😂

The greatest thing on the internet today.

“They started beating me right away when they arrested me” apnews.com/article/immi...

ICE told nurses this Minneapolis man “purposefully ran headfirst into a brick wall.” What actually happened is that they pulled him from a car, beat him so viciously with a steel baton that he had 8 skull fractures, 5 life-threatening brain hemorrhages, and couldn’t remember he had a daughter.

Army veteran Ian Austin has been released. Ian was one of the protesters in Minnesota arrested by federal agents for taking part in an anti-ICE demonstration at a church. Ian was featured in a viral Mother Jones video last week. Senior reporter Julia Lurie spoke with him and his lawyer yesterday.

There's a lot more in the story, including the account of a Maryland mother of four deported to Vietnam on an Omni plane in November. "I felt like I was less than an animal." Please read it. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

In response to the killing of two U.S. citizens by federal immigration officers, Apple CEO Tim Cook sent a note to his staff praising Trump for “his openness to engaging on issues that matter to us all”
