You know what's truly terrifying about House of Dynamite? Imagining this scenario playing out under the current administration.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

Honestly I feel like at this point, the Onion has a responsibility to stop doing Satire and just become a real journalistic organization. Since there don't seem to be any good ones left.

I'm genuinely baffled by the amount of hate "trunk or treat" gets online.

I don't think I will ever understand the people who follow the social media accounts of random ass families. Like... why? The whole idea that a family can make money because tens of thousands of people are watching their lives is so fucking weird.

ICE are terrorists. This is senseless, callous, vicious political violence.

You know what the message of today should be? The message of every day until November 2026?

National work stoppage until the Trump Regime resigns and we hold a new election.

A line has been crossed and it's long past time we demand a new government. One that abides by the constitution.

At this point the Epstein files are the real distraction. A distraction from the Fall of American Democracy.
October 7, 2025 at 3:36 AM
Okay maybe it's just me, but I don't give a flying fuck about the Epstein files anymore. Why are people saying "oh it's a distraction"? Invading American cities is a way bigger scandal than anything that could be in those files. What's happening in Chicago/Portland is way more important and urgent.

Turning the military on citizens.

Attempting to rig elections.

Toying with the idea of declaring martial law.

Attacking political enemies and punishing those who speak out.

If this were happening in another country, what would you call it?

Judge Diane Goodstein crossed the Trump administration last month. Yesterday, her home burned, her husband was injured and it's being investigated for arson.

@govpritzker.illinois.gov owns every arrest and act of violence against protesters this morning. He is aiding and abetting Operation Midway Blitz by allowing state cops to do this. He tells us to film ICE. His cops have shoved me around for filming this morning.

Let's remember this come primary time. Pritzker is all talk and no courage.

State, county, and local law enforcement have been working together and coordinating to ensure public safety around the Broadview ICE facility, and to protect people’s ability to peacefully exercise their constitutional rights.

The US is deporting a journalist today

Mario Guevara was live streaming ICE atrocities

They grabbed him

Detained him for 100 Days and are sending him to El Salvador without letting him say goodbye to his family

The ACLU confirmed he was working in the US legally

They’re attacking the free press

He has, by far, the most skilled media team in politics. Every single video I've seen is like watching an SNL Digital short or something.
The biggest sporting event in the world is happening in our backyard. But most New Yorkers will be priced out of watching it live.

My mom called me last night about the Kimmel firing, saying "This is how Hitler got started!" I quickly responded, "By firing the late night tv hosts?"

Turns out, mom was right.

A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say.

This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand.

All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.

This Audra Winter saga is just... It's a cautionary tale of the danger of over-praising your children. We do them a disservice if we don't, at some point in their life, teach them how to receive and accept constructive criticism. Especially gifted kids.

I feel like I'm an eccentric but kind rich person born in a poor person's body. If I had money there would be so many things I'd be doing. I'd be a patron of the arts, for one. Just handing out money for people to make stuff. But I'd also like, bribe my way onto the sets of shows I like.

Really happy that The Pitt won the emmy. I'm a fan of Severance and I don't think there's any argument to be made that either show is really "better" than the other, but The Pitt has a much more important and topical message in centering traumatized,struggling healthcare workers.

Seth Meyers did way better than most Democratic politicians. Say "it was bad that this happened" but say nothing else about Charlie Kirk who was an unrepentant bigot and a hateful person. Focus on the situation, not the victim. The victim deserves zero attention.
