Can you think of a single movie in which there is a video from the government denouncing its political opponents playing on a loop in public spaces in which that government was the good guy?

All of the credit for the destruction of the CDC and the health and safety of the United States goes to the Republican Congress and the MAGA voters who elected them.

If they ever realize what they have done, it will be far too late.

"The original #NoKings protest was 250 years ago. We've had democracy since then. Now we have a would-be king who wants to take it away—King Donald the First. Fuck that. Stand up and be counted in the nationwide No Kings protest on October 18."

Never forget this: The forces rigging our economy, undermining our democracy, polluting our planet, and stoking hatred are counting on you to give up. Cynicism is how they win. Stay clear-eyed and ready for the fight ahead.

Roy Cooper's website gives you a lot more information about him along with opportunities to volunteer. Pitch in a few bucks if you can to help him win a U.S. Senate seat for North Carolina. You can also follow him on @roycoopernc.bsky.social.

ICE secretly kidnap autistic boy during bathroom break—never notify parents.

Mother reported him missing a week ago—turns out ICE had him detained the whole time.

He was helping sell fruit and asked to go to the restroom—by the time she was done helping a customer he was gone.

In Chicago, four vehicles descended and eight ICE agents moved in to kidnap a child.

She screams, “I’m 15,” as ICE yanks her from the car and kneels on her neck.

This is not about immigration enforcement.

It's about terrorizing Americans.

Everyone was fired up and ready for Roy!

Had a great time hosting @roycoopernc.bsky.social at our home in Cary last night. Thanks to all the friends who came out to get behind this critical race for our state. I’m proud to support Governor Cooper for the US Senate and hope you will too.

Letitia James is being indicted for saving $50/month on a loan?

Gee, I wonder how much loan money Donald Trump saved when he got more than $270 million in debt forgiven after he failed to repay loans on his Chicago skyscraper development . . .

The grand jury indictment against New York AG Letitia James accuses her of receiving a lower-cost loan on a home she purchased.

James saved only about $50 a month with lower interest rate, the indictment alleges.
