Now seems like a swell time to point out that Frontline just released this excellent 11-minute mini-documentary about what happened inside CECOT.

Montana is leading the way in combatting Citizens United. Our state must follow!
Text SIGN PVDLWG to 50409 — You may know that in Montana local organizers have drafted and submitted a constitutional initiative for voters to consider in 2026. It would decline to grant to all corporations the power to spend in elections.
Called the Transparent Election Initiative, it wouldn’t overturn Citizens United — it would negate its consequences. HUGE.
The Citizens United decision is enormously unpopular. Some 75 percent of Americans disapprove of it. And we have the ability to help make Citizens United irrelevant in our state!
I’m asking you to use your authority to help rid the nation of Citizens United. Please look into pursuing a “Montana Initiative” in our state through the legislature. Your constituents would be thrilled, and you’ll see it receive huge support.
This is so important for our democracy. Dark money in politics is destroying everything we hold dear. You can help stop it. Please do. Thanks.

HAPPENING NOW: Portland Police Commander Franz Schoening testifies that federal officers on Oct. 18 barraged protesters with crowd control munitions — not because of any violence but because another federal officer accidentally shot tear gas onto the roof of the ICE facility.

“Despite the administration’s stated focus on countering antisemitism, it has largely ignored right-wing antisemitism.” I’m shocked… shocked, I say!” #notinourname
When anti-Semites claim to be fighting anti-Semitism they trivialize a very real problem and thereby deliberately make it worse. Attacking universities was always about spreading anti-Semitism, not combatting it.

As the government shutdown begins, remember that one of the biggest deficit drivers of the past 20 years are Republican tax cuts for the wealthy & corporations. The issue isn't programs that help millions of Americans, it's giveaways to the rich.
