Pennsylvania has an important Supreme Court race coming up on Tuesday, November 4. If you live in the Keystone State, or know someone who does, vote YES to retain three justices who will protect your fundamental rights and freedoms.

For New Yorkers who work the night shift, it can be nearly impossible to participate in political life of our city.

So tonight we’re bringing this campaign to them — starting with taxi drivers waiting at LaGuardia.

I’m sharing this again because Alma still hasn’t been released, and neither has Rodney Taylor.

ICE is targeting disabled people and counting on society not caring because they see us as expendable.

They also grabbed and dragged a disabled blind man in Portland last week.
Disabled People are Being Mistreated in ICE Detention Facilities
Why is no one talking about it? Where's the media? Where's the public outcry? Another example of the pervasive nature of ableism and how society views disabled people as expendable.

Remember when Trump and Hegseth announced plans for a National Guard quick reaction force this summer? @taskandpurpose.com has the latest details. Thousands of troops would be involved.

New: Videos show ICE/CBP agents are scanning peoples' faces on the street to verify citizenship. ICE has tool to instantly look up unprecedented number of databases with just a photo

“I’m an American citizen so leave me alone”

“Alright, we just got to verify that”

ICE and CBP Agents Are Scanning Peoples’ Faces on the Street To Verify Citizenship
Videos on social media show officers from ICE and CBP using facial recognition technology on people in the field. One expert described the practice as “pure dystopian creep.”

Federal food assistance is set to stop November 1 if lawmakers are unable to solve the government shutdown. That means the supply of food through the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) to low-income Native Americans will begin running out without help from alternative sources.

Didn't he say something idiotic recently about NASA or his thing about going to the moon - that safety shouldn't stand in the way of progress? Or was that some other unqualified, incompetent middle aged white guy in this regime?

" All three cite the same thing for this sour economic outlook — President Donald Trump’s policies, which have reduced federal employment and increased tariffs, both of which have hit Virginia uniquely hard..."

Virginia’s GDP growth drops from 6.2% to 1.7%. Three new economic reports issue warnings about why and what comes next.
The reports also suggest the state may be losing high-wage jobs but gaining lower-wage jobs.

World Central Kitchen is feeding furloughed NASA and Defense workers in D.C. Chef José Andrés is a legend and a treasure. His team usually serves war and disaster zones and they’re already heading to Jamaica. Remember who’s stepping up and who isn’t, because It’s not MAGA.
Stop lying. And illegally pushing your propaganda.
You go, girl 🐸🐸🐸🐸!!!
Way to go! I love using vintage stamps too, but they can be SOOO big, lol.

It was a real treat to talk with @gregsargent.bsky.social on his great podcast about Trump and the politicization of federal disaster aid. I hope folks will give it a listen.
When Trump denied disaster aid to Maryland, he apparently thought he was punishing a blue state. But the afflicted areas are Garrett and Allegany counties. Western Maryland is Appalachia. Those counties are deep in Trump country.
