A 34 count white wealthy felon became president then proceeded to pardon all his felon buddies. It isn't an administration it is a crime syndicate. The US is being run by criminals and pedophiles, disguised as "Christians". They are fleecing America as they let people starve.

Chicago Alderman, Andre Vasquez, pulls out a whistle from around his neck and asks fellow Chicago citizens to join the Whistle Brigade that patrols streets and sends whistles to warn neighborhoods of the presence of ICE.

"Everyone asks what did they do in 1930s Germany? They did things like this."

They LITERALLY campaigned on making children go hungry as a political statement and they can't figure out why they lost.

Word on the Hill: Gary Peters, Jeanne Shaheen, and other centrist Democrats want to end the shutdown. Every poll shows Republicans are losing this fight. Secure the ACA subsidies. We do not capitulate to a fascist tyrant and especially not when we’re winning you morons. Blow up their fucking phones.

Meanwhile, back in the real world . . .

The Trump/Johnson government shutdown has entered its 36th day, breaking the record set during Donald Trump’s first term for the longest government shutdown in U.S. history. Well done, Republicans! No wonder you were routed last night.

Johnson: When we go into the midterms, we’re very bullish on the outcome. We have an extraordinary record to run on. The first nine months of this Congress and this administration, arguably the most productive of all time.

PHILLIP: Republicans are saying that Chuck Schumer is afraid of you. Is he?

AOC: I don't think so. Sen. Schumer and I have worked together. I think Republicans are afraid of me and they project their fear onto him. So they're just telling on themselves when they say that.

Voters might not be happy with the Democratic Party, but this election proves that they know good Democratic candidates and messaging when they see them, and they’ll show up.

Grow this energy for 2026!

FUN FACT:

My favorite part of tonight's election results is that all three of the major trump endorsements (Ciattarelli, Miyares, and Cuomo) LOST bigly.

And trump handed out 53 down-ballot endorsements in New Jersey and Virginia. THEY ALL LOST.

Every. Last. One.

This reminds me of Rudy Giuliani describing the guy who patted him on the back once at Shop Rite years ago as a brutal attack that felt like he had been shot.

If Democrats brush off a Nazi tattoo as an innocent mistake, they're abandoning the ability to make effective arguments against Nazis across the aisle. It'd be an unforced error that would taint the party for generations, and rightly so.

Obama: I believe in an America where we don't fear each other. But look out for each other. And if we want that story to continue. If we believe in that better story. We need leaders who believe in it too.

Just to put a smile on your face, let's remember when Senator Mark Kelly sent his twin Scott a gorilla suit on an ISS resupply (which blew up in 2015), then sent him a SECOND gorilla suit, which Scott used to scare the hell out of British astronaut Tim Peake.

I admire the determination to a gag.

a room with a sign that says euronews at the bottom

Alt: A camera on the ISS captures a man (British astronaut Tim Peake) swimming wildly out of control through microgravity, while pursued by gorilla (actually Scott Kelly in a gorilla suit). There's a soft-sided storage container that Tim has to shove aside to get through a connector. It's a comical effect.

All talk and no action. Get off your ass and get other D senators to fight back with every trick in the book. Think like how the Rs would be fighting back. If you’re not up to it, resign and let someone else do the fighting.

The President wants to use the military to crack down on Americans who are exercising their 1st Amendment rights to oppose him. I can’t think of a better reason to insist on exercising those rights.
