I rarely quote myself.

However... if ever there was a time to repeat myself. Now seems like the time to do it.

I hope you've been building your communities so that we can survive what's coming.

And it is coming.

We're getting dangerously close to 47, declaring martial law.

When he does. Make sure you know who your people are.

Stay in your group where there is safety. Safety in numbers is a real thing.

Be prepared. It's going to be scary. But be prepared.

Newsom: I cannot wait for all the punditry. Historic victories all across the United States of America. Proposition 50 winning by double digits. A new governor of New Jersey, a new governor in Virginia.

I’ll end as I began: thank you for giving a damn.

"According to the document, which solicits information from interested contractors.., companies hired by ICE will be given bundles of information on 10,000 immigrants at a time to locate.."

"...ICE is considering “monetary bonuses” paid out based on performance."

There is nothing right about this.

The thing about Johnson not swearing in Grijalva is that’s it a test for 2026.

If you think they will accept an outcome they don’t like, they will just Grijalva it.

So what’s the plan when the GOP says “we ain’t leaving, fuck you, make us.”

Because that IS what they are going to say.

It may seem impossible to have hope in these turbulent days

But America has been through much worse, and recovered-every time

The Civil War
The Great Depression
World Wars I and II
The Civil Rights era

So don’t give up
Stay engaged
Support one another

We will get through this

And we will win

Obama: I believe in an America where we don't fear each other. But look out for each other. And if we want that story to continue. If we believe in that better story. We need leaders who believe in it too.

A deeply disturbing plan, but one thing important to clarify here is that these contracts would be for skiptracing, i.e. establishing locations, and NOT for carrying out arrests.

So this would not see private contractors grabbing people — although it could mean contractors surveilling immigrants.

“Under the plan, bounty hunters may receive “monetary bonuses” depending on how successfully they track down their targets — and how many immigrants they then report to ICE.”

Or ICE could just fund the Klan directly.

Make no mistake. That stunt was planned, not fake spontaneity. This is their announcement of an impending divorce. This is so JD can reincarnate for the 5 or 6 time in THIS lifetime, and declare himself the First Divorced VP in history, even if it isn't true.

Okay -- let's forget about everything except one fact: More than half of the people who rely on SNAP are children.

It doesn't matter in this regard what political affiliation their parents are. Tuberville is making a conscious decision to intentionally harm children.

Christopher Webb @cwebbonline.com · 15h

Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-AL) actually told the press that Democrats would be the ones hurt most by losing SNAP.

To be fair, since he lives in Florida instead of the state he represents, maybe he doesn’t realize 752,000 Alabamians rely on SNAP—14.6% of the state’s population.

After whatever happened in Butler, PA, when Trump got to the hospital, the first thing he said to aides was, "How is it playing? How does it look on TV?"

Are those the words of a man who had just survived a real assassination attempt?

Now Norah is interviewing Trump for @60minutes.bsky.social?That's going to be interesting....

It’s far too early to say, but a segment on last week’s show isn’t encouraging.

www.cnn.com/2025/10/31/p...

People who know Obama say he has been surprised and appalled in how many of the rich people who now form his social circle have made concessions to Trump. He's
reaching out to business and other institutional leaders, urging them not to bend to the current administration even if it
helps their bottom lines.

The days of thinking our government’s job is to protect us from extreme suffering are over, at least for now while we are under this regime.

We need to keep pushing back and demand that our tax dollars are appropriated as intended. Let’s keep supporting each other through it to the other side.
