Clark: So what are we doing here today? You have already voted to dismantle medicaid, the largest health care program in America. A program that covers 40% of all births in this country. 40% of children in this country. 40% of disabled people in this country.

Just back from seeing old friend Steve Earle perform next door in Montclair. Grizzled, sure, but sounding better than ever, 50 years down the road. He closed with City of Immigrants -- about as good an answer as I've heard to the MAGA blood and soil fascists. Listen. www.youtube.com/watch?v=75H8...

This was not only predictable, it was predicted.
New: The FBI is quietly urging ICE agents to properly ID themselves in the field.
In a bulletin to law enforcement last month, it warned of criminals posing as ICE to rob, rape, kidnap—a problem it says now demands national coordination to confront.

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.
The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.
Read that back.
When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

Last night, the National Guard chased children who were out enjoying Halloween in Navy Yard.
There is no valid reason for armed soldiers to terrorize children like this. End Trump’s occupation of DC. National Guard out NOW.
