The DNC Resolutions Committee has passed my resolution to hold Trump Administration officials legally accountable for their crimes. Assuming the whole packet passes on Friday, it will become the official position of the national Democratic Party.

Massachusetts folks, you know it's nominating papers season. Outside Market Basket was a guy with papers for three R folks and one D. I've never seen that before. Have you? #mapoli

hey, just checking in on this one again

Donald Trump must fire Kristi Noem immediately. Or Democrats will initiate impeachment proceedings against her in the House. We can do this the easy way or the hard way.

BREAKING: The two federal immigration agents who fired on Minneapolis protester Alex Pretti are identified in government records as Border Patrol agent Jesus Ochoa and Customs and Border Protection officer Raymundo Gutierrez.

Another @NPR bothsiderism piece interviewing a former police chief who repeatedly said violent threats come from both sides. Numbers would have been responsible journalism. If 10000 (as said) reports and 9987 were from one side and 13 the other, is it really "the same"? But npr didnt ask.

When the Melania movie doesn’t get nominated for any film awards how much will the movie tariffs be? Maybe he can get FIFA to give her an award.

Just kinda seems like refusing to tell us which ICE agents murdered Alex Pretti undercuts the idea that they’re wearing masks to protect themselves — rather than to be able to kill people with impunity.

Man, I bet the NRA is going to be furious when they hear that jack-booted thugs from the federal government executed a law-abiding citizen for exercising his Second Amendment right to carry a handgun. Any second now, I'm sure. He was a white guy, if that helps? Hello? NRA?

This guy went to work today, put a mask on, kidnapped a 5 year old child, and then used him as bait so both he and his father could be sent behind bars

Dear House and Senate Democrats: If you don't have the courage to use every tool to stop Trump--including impeachment--you are part of the problem. Please resign--or at least don't run for re-election--and allow a fighter to take your seat.

Kay Tee reposted

History is screaming: The world needs to stand up to Trump now. Appeasement will only embolden him to attack more countries! Will the world learn from history--or will they allow Trump to repeat it?!

Watch the woman with a little girl in her lap running from this chaos around 0:09 second mark. I really cannot believe this is happening in America. 🥲

Trump's thugs are going hog wild and tossing gas around in one of the busiest commercial districts in Minneapolis, just a mile or so from where I live. Complete insanity. (vid via Ford Fischer on X)

Garcia: If you are a whistleblower at the FBI, at the DOJ, if you worked hard to put the files together and are seeing your work now being hidden by your own DOJ, contact the oversight committee. We have whistleblower protections.

IDK who needs to hear this, but you can tell whatever streaming platform you use to NOT play a particular artist. Let's take a *totally random* example... I'll pick Nicki Minaj. Just tell it not to play her and it won't! You also could totally at random choose Kid Rock or Village People.

Trump on Friday had his name posted on the wall of the Kennedy Center. Obviously Trump had the letters made for his name to be put on the Kennedy Center before Thursday's vote. The vote was a charade to cover for what Trump had already planned to do.

Never. Trust. Republicans.

Senate Republicans just slipped a clause into the shutdown bill that could pay themselves up to $500,000 each. They blocked help for families’ health care—but made sure their own payday was covered. Priorities. www.dailykos.com/stories/2025...

I assume the neverending spam email in Kaine's name will stop now, since hell will freeze over before I ever donate a dollar in his name. Or any of the Vichy 8.

Tim Kaine on backlash he's getting: "I got the first good night's sleep last night that I've gotten since Oct 1, b/c I wasn't worried about being able to look Capitol Police in the eye when I walked in, or what a furloughed fed worker would say to me at church, or what somebody would say about SNAP"

Clearly some ppl still need to hear this: It is a good thing to shun nazis & their enablers. You don't have to put on a swastika to be an enabler or sympathizer & it doesn't change the harm they cause. They are at your table because you made room for them to be there.

Instead, "Christian" Nationalists let food rot while also denying people food.

WWJD about SNAP John 6:10-12 Jesus then took the loaves, gave thanks, and distributed to those who were seated as much as they wanted. He did the same with the fish. When they had all had enough to eat, He said to his disciples, “Gather the pieces that are left over. Let nothing be wasted.”

NJ friend who's longterm unemployed & covered by #ACA, JUST under financial threshold for very lowcost payment- $35/mo. Come 1/26 that same coverage will be $245/mo, a SIX HUNDRED PERCENT increase. This is what Republicans wanted.

If you/someone you know obtains health insurance via the #ACA, it's the first (mostly, looking at you early Idaho) day of Open Enrollment Period. Please check out my friend @charlesgaba.com' extensive, extremely well-done guide to ACA OEP. You'll be glad you did.

📣 This is the longest thread I’ve ever posted, but it includes vitally important information for anyone enrolling in healthcare coverage via the ACA exchanges starting TODAY. Of course you could just visit the link & read the blog post instead, but that doesn’t include the fun GIFs.

Trying to blame the Dems cutting off SNAP (while sitting on billons of available contingency funds) as his boss bulldozes the WH to build a ball room like Saddam's palace, sends $40 billion to bail out Argentines, and eats "gold adorned" brownies in Korea is not gonna work.

The president had a MRI but won't say why. He had bruises on his hands but wouldn't say why. He just had an 'annual medical' even though he already had his annual medical. He got shot in the ear but has never released the medical records relating to it. How is any of this ok?

I have seen a ton of well-meaning posts suggesting instead of candy folks hand out Mac n cheese cups, ramen and packaged minimuffins to 'kids who need it'. And I'm asking you to reconsider... (1/4)

(2) If you want to share your absolutely well-meaning generosity of spirit and treasure, have a separate bin where the parents/chaperones are waiting and fill THAT with helpful items (not ramen- anyone who NEEDS food is already eating plenty of that). (3/4)

(3) Look for your local food bank or little free pantry and donate money or food. We ALL want to help our neighbors. But kids deserve not to have it pointed out to them on the once-a-year sugar frenzy. When you think about it, candy is DEFINITELY not on their family's grocery list. (4/4)

(1) ALL KIDS deserve the traditional Trick-or-Treat experience. It is not my job to gatekeep the Reeses anymore than it is to gatekeep the cake mix in the grocery store for SNAP recipients, or make sure poor kids only get a cheese sandwich instead of a hot school lunch. (2/4)

Like the 5 people on the corner near my house, I suspect there were many pop-up protests; I’ve seen a lot of pictures of people on roadsides, on highway overpasses, etc.

I have no idea but I would not be surprise if that 7 million estimate ended up being an undercount.
