Ahead of tomorrow’s storm:
California has pre-positioned resources — including dozers, hand crews, rescue swimmers, and helicopters — in Ventura, Los Angeles, and San Bernardino counties to respond to potential debris flows and mudslides.

You know, Letitia James must be squeaky clean if all they could find to harass her with was buying a home that her relative lives in.

For real.

If you were loud for Jimmy Kimmel, crank it up for Letitia James.
Authoritarian bullies count on silence to get away with it; make some noise and have her back!

Stay Weird Portland! 🔥 Today Portland had an emergency naked bike ride to the ICE facility. IN THE RAIN.

It was around 50°. Thousands were fully nude, half nude, or wearing costumes.

Portland is VERY dedicated to exposing the absurdities of injustice.

Here are some photos & videos. 🧵👇🏼

In town near me, a 13 yo was abducted by ICE and sent to a facility in Virginia. He is sleeping on a concrete floor with an aluminum sheet for a blanket, and is being held with adults. He calls his mother crying. I can’t imagine how traumatized this child is. 1/

Truly disgusting

ICE detained an autistic 5 year old girl in Leominster, Mass

Grateful to have @emilyslist.bsky.social by my side in this campaign. Now more than ever, we need leaders with backbone who will cut through the BS and deliver for families.

And there’s nothing that Donald Trump hates more than facing down a strong, powerful woman. 💪🏻

After installing a makeup studio at the Pentagon, ‘tough guy’, Whiskey Pete Kegseth decided he needed a little more help looking masculine so he got some Botox shot into his big ‘manly’ head.
Word is he’s quite full of himself even though he can’t even do one pull up.

CBP agents knocked on an El Paso home at 7:15 a.m.

The owner asked to secure his Rottweiler, Chop, in the bathroom.

While he got his ID, agents opened the door and shot Chop.

The family tried to save him as he bled out on the kitchen floor.

Let’s be honest: there have already been several bizarre moments from Trump this morning alone that would justify invoking the 25th Amendment.

He is a seriously unwell individual.

CBS reporter Edward R. Murrow embodied what a journalist should be: someone who holds power to account instead of capitulating to it.

Over 70 years later, his segment denouncing Joe McCarthy’s congressional witch hunts rings truer than ever.

The future of the Democratic Party must be rooted in investing in the American people — not Wall St., corporations, and consultants.

Otherwise, Trumpism will continue to use cynicism, racism, and distrust to divide America.

Vote YES on November 4 to keep the Court independent and democracy intact. 🔥
