For the love of America.

@sanders.senate.gov: "No, Speaker Johnson, the #NoKings Rally on October 18th is not a 'hate America' rally. ... It’s a rally of millions of people who believe in American freedom and are not going to allow you and President Trump to turn us into an authoritarian country."

About this Qatar base being built in Idaho…..

Legit question:

Are we going to be seeing fighter jets with Qatar insignia flying over our neighborhoods in the future?

Just asking for 75 million friends.

Tweet from Fred Wellman: “Weird. I was told it’s a war zone.”
Below is a Time Out Chicago post showing a scenic city skyline at sunset with the text: “Chicago has been voted the Best Big City in the U.S. for the ninth consecutive year.”

FINAL: Mariners 3, Tigers 2

The Seattle Mariners are headed to the ALCS for the first time since 2001 and will face Toronto after Jorge Polanco walked off Detroit in the 15th inning. It was the longest winner-takes-all playoff game in MLB history. Amazing night, amazing series.

We're all in one sinking boat or another in this GOP healthcare disaster. The difference is that the people of Idaho overwhelmingly voted for the Trump regime and nearly every state MAGA Rep too.

This devastating national failure is owned by the Republicans, not "Congress people."

The Trump administration has been spreading anti-vaccine propaganda for months. Tonight, Trump's physician announced he just received a flu shot and a COVID booster.

Illegally firing the CDC experts while he gets the latest COVID vaccine is really beyond the pale.

Americans have been telling themselves they will not live on their knees for generations going back to our Founding.

We’re gonna be testing that claim in the coming months.

😭 I'm so glad you made this video today! ICE - for all time - should be shunned by decent society. Everything ICE is doing is illegal and we cannot just stand by and let it keep happening.

The elected Dems must stop acting as though this is another normal administration. Fight fire with fire!

Samira Ahmed @samiraahmed.bsky.social · 1d

At the very least, the very least, I'd elected Dems to stop saying shit like, "with all due respect to the Speaker." Or, "our friends across the aisle."

Words matter. I don't care if it's petty. They're destroying democracy, stop acting like anything requires normalcy or decorum.

Be a petty bitch.

I think so too. Labeling the No Kings protests as terrorists... is a sign they are getting desperate. Americans really do not know how our government works, but they do understand the freedom to petition our government and peacefully assemble. Desperate men do desperate things.
