This is so sad and what I figured had been happening. I hope everyone who thought Kamala wasn’t good enough is happy. Let’s not make that mistake again.
Writing about Elon Musk’s pay package without leading with this is like profiling John Wayne Gacy’s booming party clown career.
One analytical model shows that, as of November 5th, the dismantling of U.S.A.I.D. has already caused the deaths of 600,000 people, two-thirds of them children. https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/jUzNSc

Did more official numbers get released? Our economy is in trouble and should be for all the unnecessary destruction happening.
* Most October layoffs since 2003
* Most Q4 layoffs since 2008
* Most YTD layoffs since 2020
* Least YTD hiring since 2011
* Least holiday seasonal hiring since 2012

Local elections that matter most.
From the bottom up, guys.
County clerks, secretaries of state, and local election boards run the machinery of democracy.
Win as many of these races as possible, and even a lunatic backed by oligarchy might be removed.

🎃 This Halloween, families are getting tricked by Trump’s economy:
Candy prices are up 11%
Tootsie Rolls are up 34%
Hershey’s packs are up 22%
Trump promised to make life cheaper. Instead, he’s haunted Americans with higher prices. (via @groundwork.bsky.social and @tcfdotorg.bsky.social)

It’s the start of a healthcare crisis that could cause millions to lose coverage or take on new medical debt in 2026.
This is precisely what Democrats have been fighting to prevent.

Trump has made the economy lousy.
I’m at Gatorland in Orlando, and one of the employees told me that park attendance is way down: “The zip line should be packed, but nobody’s buying tickets.”
He says people just aren’t spending money, and guesses that’s because everyone is struggling due to the “lousy economy.”

More lawsuits should be filed. We are not okay with this.
There’s only been one lawsuit filed against the devastating destruction of the White House.
One.
And it’s by Virginia couple, Charles and Judith Voorhees.
Not Congress, not historical (or any) institutions, but a citizen couple.
We continue to be the resistance.

In personal and social media ways, I am hearing more of these stories. This one from CA, but I personally know one from CO and DC and I’ve heard of this happening to far too many in Chicago as well. This is one story, but the House, if it was in DC, could be providing oversight to demand ICE better.
ICE attacked George Retes, a US Army Iraq War Combat Veteran. He was brutally beaten & detained by these masked thugs. They held him for 3 days & they deprived him of medical attention & made him miss his baby's birthday!

Powerful rally today in front of Russell Vought's evil lair (the Office of Management & Budget). Dozens of furloughed and wrongly fired feds showed up to advocate for the programs they staff(ed) -- like Jessica (photo 2), who was fired from the FDA in April. Photo credit Kyle Helson.
