Argentina gets $20 billion, Qatar gets an airbase in Iowa, while our soldiers are being fed by food banks. Orgs like Army Emergency Relief are stepping in amidst Trump’s shutdown, and you can make a donation at any of the links in this thread:

Now they’re indicting Letitia James…the woman who finally held Trump’s feet to the fire. You can smell the revenge all the way from Mar-a-Lago. This isn’t justice…it’s payback wrapped in paperwork. And every American with a brain knows it.

NEW: A MAGA X account often shared by Senator Mike Lee and House Republicans like Nancy Mace--that often alleges Democrats encourage voting fraud-- is run by a man who not only has never stepped foot in the US, he also illegally donated to an American campaign.

McGovern: Republicans love to advocate for more work requirements for poor people… Let's have a work requirement for Republicans to show up to congress and do your god damn job.

The White House Antifa Roundtable is one of the best displays I’ve seen of this-is-how-bad-it’s-gotten — just a sewer of open fascism, dementia, morons and freaks, and incoherent rage.

Peter Thiel’s favorite blogger “says he’s considering leaving the U.S. because the Trump administration is failing to kill democracy to his liking and he fears political retribution from Democrats if they regain power.”

sfstandard.com/2025/10/07/c...

Citing fear of Democratic ‘vengeance,’ Curtis Yarvin says he may flee the U.S.

The far-right blogger doesn’t think the Trump administration has done enough to dismantle democratic institutions.

Stephen Miller said the quiet part out loud. Trump has “plenary authority,” then suddenly went silent. Their plan wasn’t to be public yet. Clearly, someone hit the panic button in his earpiece.

It gets weirder: CNN uploaded the interview with the “plenary authority” comment edited out.

So cool that whenever someone asks the president, “did you eat the Lindbergh baby” he’s like, “no but I’d be allowed to, I have the right to, I might do it later”

Portland is so peaceful Republicans had to go all the way to South America to find photos from years ago for their bad memes.

Robert Mackey @robertmackey.bsky.social · 5d

The Oregon Republican Party tried to help Donald Trump make the case for military intervention in Portland with an image of a fiery protest — but since Portland is calm, they had to fabricate one by merging old photos of police in Ecuador and protesters in Brazil www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Why isn't Pam Bondi releasing the Epstein Files?

Over 80% of Americans want them released. Its the only thing that a majority of this country agrees on.

CNN: “An older couple making $85K/year will see their yearly insurance premiums jump from $7K to $25,000 — 30% of their income.” 😳#TrumpShutdown #TrumpHealthCareTax

This is what Dems are drawing attention to and want fixed. Now, not later.
