What war zone? Trump and his thugs are lying again. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

Costumed protesters in Portland defy description of the city as a 'war zone'

Dancing frogs, peacocks and unicorns outside the federal immigration building present a joyful contrast to the Trump administration's portrait of the Oregon city, they say.

@sanders.senate.gov: "No, Speaker Johnson, the #NoKings Rally on October 18th is not a 'hate America' rally. ... It’s a rally of millions of people who believe in American freedom and are not going to allow you and President Trump to turn us into an authoritarian country."

There are reports that the *entire* office of special education at the US Dept of Education has been cut. These hardworking folks ensure kids with disabilities get equal access to a quality education.

America’s children deserve better than this.

It's wild that we've reached a point where the President openly admits to firing people for political reasons, and his OMB director tweets about it like it's a victory. This is page one of the authoritarian playbook, happening in plain sight.

Our job is not to throw 15 million people off health care and double insurance premiums for more than 20 million.

Our job is not to shutter community health centers, nursing homes and rural hospitals.

Our job is to fix a broken system and guarantee health care to all.

I totally agree.
I don’t support ANY stores that allow open carry. www.sun-sentinel.com/2025/10/11/p...

Publix should keep guns out of its stores | Editorial

In the interest of public safety, Publix ought to reconsider its decision to allow shoppers to openly carry firearms.

Consider kindness
Be a good citizen
Do the right thing

Next time you're at an airport or train station
Next time you're at a super market or shopping center
Next time you're at theme park or stadium

Next time you're at a public location with a P.A. system

Ask to page "Jeffrey Epstein" who is lost

#SuperVoter

Glenn Storm @glennstorm.bsky.social · 1d

To add to your vocabulary: "Super Voter"

Political campaigns refer to constituents who consistently vote in every election, and vote in a consistent manner, "Super Voters".

These voters form a reliable foundation to build a campaign upon, and often become a source of voter momentum and volunteers.
