But can we cut any more Medicare, Medicaid, SNAP, and other social safety net programs? Think of the munitions we could buy with that money! /s

After brutally arresting Aliya Rahman, an autistic, disabled woman, in Minneapolis, ICE agents told her that "this wouldn’t have happened if I was a ‘normal’ human being."

Donald J Trump Charity for Donald J Trump?
Keep calling it the Trump/Vance administration. JD is complicit with this too. He must accept responsibility for the incompetence and cruelty.

I just woke up from a nap and somehow while I was asleep, everyone on the bus has figured out we are not going to the right place
LEFT: Heartfelt condolences on Rob Reiner's death from a kind, stable person who should have been president.
RIGHT: Obscene gloating over Rob Reiner's death from a delusional sociopath who never should have been president.
He is a gutter person
This is exactly what you do
With presidents who coup
So you mistakenly dismembered a journalist?
Most likely both
I want you to understand what it is like to live in Chicago during this time. Every day my phone buzzes. It is a neighborhood group: four people were kidnapped at the corner drugstore. A friend a mile away sends a Slack message: she was at the scene when masked men assaulted and abducted two people on the street. A plumber working on my pipes is distraught, and I find out that two of his employees were kidnapped that morning. A week later it happens again. An email arrives. Agents with guns have chased a teacher into the school where she works. They did not have a warrant. They dragged her away, ignoring her and her colleagues’ pleas to show proof of her documentation. That evening I stand a few feet from the parents of Rayito de Sol and listen to them describe, with anguish, how good Ms. Diana was to their children. What it is like to have strangers with guns traumatize your kids. For a teacher to hide a three-year-old child for fear they might be killed. How their relatives will no longer leave the house. I hear the pain and fury in their voices, and I wonder who will be next. Understand what it is to pray in Chicago.

I don’t know how many times I’ve watched this video.
I don’t know how we’ve gotten to the point where men in full balaclavas can abduct daycare teachers while they’re watching children.
But I do know that this isn’t sustainable. Abolish ICE. There is no way to reform this.
Thank you, Marc!
This will increase Mamdani's margin of victory by double digits.

"Speaker Johnson, it looks as though the president is currently stabbing you with a knife. Do you have any comment?"
"Well, look, this is the first I'm hearing about it. As you know, I've been really busy not doing my job, so I just don't know enough about this alleged stabbing to make a comment."
Is Mike Johnson talking? If so, he's lying.

Fund SNAP. Reverse the Medicaid cuts. Restore USAID.

If you are affected by the loss of SNAP benefits, your job, or other support, check out www.feedingamerica.org/find-your-lo... to find your local food bank.
One of the most impactful ways to help is by donating money to Feeding America (www.feedingamerica.org )or your local food bank or pantry. Donating money goes a long way.
It is November 1st and the federal government is still shut down. Today or soon, hundreds of thousands of people will miss getting their SNAP benefits and start going hungry.
You can help.
Accidentally opened the X app and now I need a tetanus shot.

Q: Why are my electricity bills going up?
A: You are likely (a) in a region impacted by Trump tariffs and retaliatory price hikes in electricity from Canada, or (b) in a region subsidizing billionaire-owned data farms for AI or crypto mining.
It’s not because of immigrants or drag queens.
Thank you to the organizers of today's wildly successful (and peaceful) "No Kings" rallies. You did an amazing job. And thanks to all the millions of people who showed up to give us faith. And a special shout out to the White House regime and the Speaker of the House for all the free publicity!
Weird to see chants of “USA! USA!” at these rallies that I was assured were “Hate America” rallies.
Whoever came up with the idea of mocking this gratuitously cruel regime with cute, nonthreatening plastic frogs really hit a gold mine. The clever imagery has made it all the way across the Atlantic.
We were there! It was a great turnout!
