Young Democrat: "No kings in America"

Young Republican: "I love Hitler"

Sometimes Fox News inadvertently acts like a news outlet.

Lt. Gen. (Ret.) Mark Hertling: “For the record, there are 17 pages worth of requirements, and the only people that buy this shortened version from Hegseth are truly dummies.”

Dems can keep paying consultants for talking points, keep holding press conferences, and keep pretending like we live in a redeemable timeline—but we live with a co-opted executive branch led by racist, xenophobic idiots who do not believe in law & are empowered by a slavish SCOTUS. https://trib.al/J6F0Q47

This is horrifying. Not surprising. Or unbelievable. It’s just, seeing it out in the light.

Alex Dwyer, Anne KayKaty, Bobby Walker, Joe Maligno, Luke Mosiman, Peter Giunta, Samuel Douglass, Brianna Douglass, and Rachel Hope.

Know their names. Know that they are repugnant trash. Ostracize and ban them from everything.

Young Nazis, not Young Republicans. Literally.

Not even a week in and prosecutors in the Jim Comey case have SEKRITS. I'd give at least a 25% probability that the judge requires this unsealed (there's no sign of permission to sign it under seal). Maybe it's about Trump's fee fees.

CHRIS CHRISTIE (a Republican): “This is no longer the Department of Justice. What it is now is a Capo regime who goes out and executes hits when directed by the Don to do so.”

"We’re talking to the state's attorneys and Attorney General to see how they can go at this because what we want to make sure is that they follow the law," he said: https://www.fox32chicago.com/news/the-tables-will-turn-one-day-pritzker-blasts-ice-cbp-chicago.amp

In honor of breast cancer awareness month: it's really hard to get an accurate statistic but MANY many cancerous lumps are found by romantic partners.

Please, don't be afraid to say something if you feel like you detected a lump in your partner's breast. It's not an insult. It's okay if it's benign and you worried them for 'nothing' because breast cancer treatability is very dependent on stage. Early detection matters so much.

Be brave, if you feel something, say something 🩷

The joy of the day is tempered with deep sorrow. The families of twenty-eight hostages wait for news that their loved ones will be restored to them for burial. 💔

And it is impossible not to think of the many other hostages who were murdered in captivity, and their grieving families.

When Marjorie Taylor Greene is calling out her own party, you know it’s bad.

She says she’s “carving [her] own lane” — and blasting GOP leaders for having no plan as health insurance premiums are set to double if tax credits expire.

“Not a single Republican in leadership talked to us or has given us a plan.” 💥 https://shorturl.at/Ukm9J #press

Pritzker: "If the Constitution means anything -- and I guess we all are questioning that right now -- the Insurrection Act cannot be invoked ... they just want troops on the ground because they want to militarize especially blue cities in blue states."

“‘We could hear them laughing as they were shooting us from the roof, and it was deeply disturbing,’ the Rev. David Black of Chicago told CNN earlier this week in his first interview.” https://people.com/pastor-claims-he-was-praying-when-ice-agents-shot-him-pepper-ball-11828065

One of, perhaps the main reason the Trump regime won't institute the Insurrection Act is that it would essentially stop all political fundraising. The reason the media won't tell you this is that the media depends on that $$ for the ad spend. #politics #media

The incompetence is astounding

"Hundreds of staff fired from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention late Friday have been reinstated, according to the American Federation of Government Employees." https://www.cnn.com/2025/10/12/health/fired-cdc-staffers-reinstated?cid=ios_app

BARTIROMO: What is the function of this Qatar facility? People are wondering if this is an airbase. What are they developing in Idaho?

VANCE: This is largely a fake story

MAGAt’s believe everything their golden God tells them.

Who’s got the majority in the House?

Who’s got the majority in the Senate?

Who’s in the White House?

A convicted felon.

“But there is nothing noble about what Vought is doing. He is a fully competent, utterly committed radical ideologue. He lusts for counter-revolution and radical measures. There is no line he doesn’t feel justified to cross. He does not talk about the conflict with “the Left” in the idiom of democratic politics, but that of war. Vought is at war with large swaths of the population…..”
