“One more question, sir. You wrote a book about the former president's cognitive issues, but the current president posted that the former president was executed in 2020 and replaced by a mindless, soulless robot with cancer. What am I missing here?”

Happen to be in SF this weekend. Beautiful view of our next supermax prison. #Alcatraz

Proof this guy is full of SITH.

I made a video featuring every incredible American who shared protest pics—because YOU are the heartbeat of democracy.💙 You carry the spirit of our founding fathers and the fire of freedom. 🇺🇸 Thank you for showing up, speaking out, and getting in good trouble.👏🏻 Keep going!🔥 @maddow.msnbc.com

@50501movement.bsky.social Congress, do your job! Listen to the people! #Phoenix

@50501movement.bsky.social I don’t want my tax dollars going to gulags in El Salvador. I don’t want my personal data in the hands of Trump and Musk. I don’t want to pay higher prices because of Trump’s tariffs. I don’t want an autocracy. I want a Democracy! Phoenix, AZ

@handsoffnow.bsky.social This is what Democracy looks like. Hands off our rights, our freedoms, our jobs! Phoenix, AZ

@50501movement.bsky.social Thousands protesting in Phoenix

@50501movement.bsky.social Making our voices heard in Phoenix

Mona Charen in the Bulwark: “We are outsourcing torture and murder. What kind of president, what kind of political party, can look at that with satisfaction?”

Only in Canada!

Great turnout at the Sedona AZ #HandsOff march and rally. At least 1000 people were there and AZ AG @krismayes.bsky.social spoke about how she and the other 22 Dem AGs are helping to save us from the lunacy.

This isn't just donalds doing. The Republicans in Congress own this. They had the ability to stop him and they didn't. This isn't donalds economy, this is the republican economy.

This mess?

The many triumphed over the money in Wisconsin's Supreme Court election yesterday. Congratulations to Judge Susan Crawford, to the people of Wisconsin, and to everyone fighting for a just and free America. Let's keep going.

so my favorite dive bar in WI passed up showing tonight’s Bucks game so they could show live poll results. when the election was called for Crawford, the whole bar started chanting, “Fuck El*n”. the bartender pulled out the good stuff and handed out free shots to us all—an absolutely electric nite

BREAKING NEWS: Susan Crawford WINS the Wisconsin Supreme Court election DEFEATING Elon Musk puppet Brad Schimel! Congratulations Judge Crawford!

Musk spending is now well past $26 million in Wisconsin (20m to his groups, 3m to WisGOP, 3m in $1m checks, plus untold millions in $100-per-petition-signature bribes). He tried to buy the election just like he bought he White House and like he bought kneepad Brad Schimel. The resistance won. Big.

The agriculture and food policy reporter for Canada’s Globe and Mail traveled across the US and Canada to report on the impact of tariffs for the agriculture sector. She learned tariffs will be devastating for farmers and producers, but nobody wanted to talk about it.

Washington Business Journal reports major apartment development for Rosslyn is on hold because of federal workforce cuts and tariffs. Jobs that could have been. Apartments that could have been built but for the Trump wrecking ball destroying our economy.

If Oct. 7 had never happened, Trump would right now be pulling funding from Columbia and Harvard because of DEI policies or admissions requirements or what research they were doing or all of the above. The right hates universities and that’s it.

Hour 6 of the marathon speech by US Senator Cory Booker (D-New Jersey) in Congress, a very emotional moment as he reads a letter from a constituent with Parkinson's Disease.

OAG reports 320,000 seats have been removed by airlines operating between Canada and the US through October and future bookings have “collapsed.” They are down 70% in every month through the end of September. OAG estimates Sept 2025 will be down 167,000 scheduled flights.

We spent nearly 8 minutes this morning trying to set the record straight on a number of health matters. I’d expect the Surgeon General or NIH Director to do this, but since they’re not, here it is in 4 clips. #medsky

In the past I’ve heard from colleagues that research posting and discovery was better on Twitter. New data from Altmetric suggests the tide has turned.

I was elected in 2010 with Kristie Noem. She used to be kind, compassionate, and put her faith above any personal gain. She like so many others, is now broken

Susan Rice is great. She said, “Having this conversation in a non-secure setting is either stupid, lazy, or a sign that they just don’t care and want to evade the Federal Records Act.”

Substantial jump in the % of people who think they'll have lower income in the next 6 months

They’re not going to get out of this by playing semantics. Sending detailed information about an upcoming military strike on unclassified channels (and even to the wrong guy) is wrong, reckless, and obviously a threat to American troops.

Meiselas: Steve Witkoff, was allegedly in Moscow while he was on this group chat. Do you believe the Russians now have all of that information and potentially more? Rice: Well, yes—the Russians have whatever Witkoff was doing or saying on his personal cell phone. The Russians undoubtedly have it.
