BREAKING: Donald Trump holds an impromptu press conference to dispute the claim made by Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez that Stephen Miller was "4' 10" tall, telling reporters "As you can clearly see, Stephen Miller is NOT short at all... he's fun-sized!".

DHS secretary #KristiNoem visited “War Ravaged” Portland this morning.

Will Fox run video of her visiting Gov. Kotek to show Portland is NOT “burning to the ground” every day?

I wanna know if she'll meet with the #AntiFascistFrog!

I see Trump's using a Halloween themed AI video to scare us about Russ Vought illegally impounding money.
Needs #MoreCowbell Donny!

Now here's something that really scares them. #ReleasetheEpsteinFiles

Pete Hegseth thinks people will see him as General Patton from the movie, but I see him as Chris Farley from the SNL skit of a motivational speaker.

"My name is Matt Foley, I am 35 years old, I am divorced, and I live in a van down by the river."

Pete Hegseth in front of a flag saying "The military has been forced by foolish and reckless politicians to focus on the wrong things."

That #Medbed @maddow.msnbc.com just mentioned? It reminds me of the 2013 movie Elysium, starring Matt Damon & Jodie Foster, where the elites kept advanced health care for themselves.
I rewatched it & saw parallels to GOP cutting healthcare to millions this week.
Look the DHS troops deporting folks.

I’m one of the Americans who will lose affordable healthcare in months. Please hold the line!

Barack Obama @barackobama.bsky.social · 12d

Republicans would rather shut down the government than help millions of Americans afford health care. This article tells some of their stories, and is a good reminder of what’s at stake.

These people have found their health care at the center of a shutdown showdown

Small business owners, self-employed people and early retirees are among the 24 million Americans who could lose the tax credit

We know what Trump wants in #Portland & who he wants to be.

He's not the Emperor. #ICE are like Stormtroopers, mask wearing incompetent lackeys we're meant to fear.

Trump is authorizing the troops to use "Full Force, if necessary" against the people in #Portland because #Epstein files.

Will the military give him the show of force that he wants? Like his parade?

Good for the Mayor! I'm glad ICE didn't slam him to the ground like they did to Kat Abughazaleh at a peaceful protest at the #ICE facility in Broadview, #Illinois, West of #Chicago on Sept 19, 2025
We don't know who did this brutal move. Wearing a mask, no name badge.
