Democrats should be drawing up legislation right now, this very minute, to bar Trump from helping himself to $230 million in taxpayer funds from DOJ. Challenge Republicans to hold a vote on it. Push this so hard in the media that every GOP Senate and House candidate is pressed to comment on it.

NEW: 200+ Chicago-area clergy — Protestants, Catholics, and evangelicals — have signed a letter decrying ICE's efforts and voicing a willingness to put their "bodies on the line" for migrants.

"What Kristi Noem and her ICE agents are doing is immoral," they write. religionnews.com/2025/10/21/a...

I don’t think there’s much evidence that those who are unclear about this distinction are ready to abandon America to Trump’s fascist tendencies. If anything, they are less likely to surrender to him.

(There might be a few out there saying, “We’re fascist now. Run for the hills,” but that’s rare.)

Whether it’s Bill Clinton letting a donor sleep in the Lincoln bedroom or Donald Trump completely demolishing the east wing of the White House, neither president showed proper respect for our nation’s most sacred building.

“This is not about drugs, it’s not about Venezuela, it’s not about anything else but this new assertion by the president that the U.S. military will kill anyone he points at, for any reason he deems sufficient.”

Very true and very scary comment by Tom Nichols.

You don’t have to be fit to work for ICE. You just have to be wiling to be an ICEhole.

I appreciate those former Republicans who understood how far their party has gone off the rails.

The arder step is to publicly align with the only other party that has the potential to stop Trump. They may not agree with the Democrats on everything, but joining them will make a difference.

While splitting this hair accurately may have some value, the real issue seems to be that we have a fascist president in the US.

Using the term to describe him and his administration is appropriate, and concerns about fascism coming to the country more widely are not unfounded.

Moskowitz: We need $30 billion to extend, obviously, these healthcare subsidies, which allow Americans—Americans, not illegal—Americans, citizens, to afford healthcare.

And the president’s like, “We don’t have $30 billion, but I am going to send $40 billion to my dear friend in Argentina.”
Soros didn't pay for it. He didn't "look at the signs." We aren't leftist radicals.

He's full of that stuff he dumped out of his fake airplane in that recent video.
He sounds like a broken record.
A delusional one at that.

Remember April 2009 when about 250,000 people took to America’s streets in Tea Party rallies and the media was like “oh man, the Dems are in trouble?” Approximately 28X as many people took to the streets to protest Trump yesterday. Didn’t even make the NYT front page.
In April of 2009 I observed the Tea Party rally in Salem. As this front page story says, there were a couple hundred people there. This past weekend in Salem there were roughly 2-3000 people at the Hands Off rally. Yet the Tea Party coverage seemed to take that event far more seriously.
That phony scheme has become increasingly popular in all kinds of media — asking the creators to pay to have their work seen or distributed.

To anyone who is tempted, you only want to deal with people who think your work has enough value that they’ll earn money by selling it, not by charging you.

Got buried in the news this weekend, but President Jesus said the F word on CNN at like 2pm in the afternoon. The next day he posted a poop-filled scat video, but tell Me more about the dignity of the office of the presidency.

And if you think Trump’s ICE will only be sent to terrorize immigrants, you have not been paying attention.
“.. They describe the legions of masked immigration officers operating in near-total anonymity on the orders of the president as the crossing of a line that had long set the United States apart from the world’s most repressive regimes.”

When do you think Trump and Republicans will realize they drove up No Kings protest attendance by calling it a “hate America rally”?

She nails it🔥
