CBS News said Thune told reporters "the deal is coming together" and "we'll see kind of where the votes are"

this does not sound like he is super confident that he has a deal for the votes

What a game from PC - overtime proved to be too much for them but they had it back and forth all game - this is going to be a fun team to watch - let’s hope the team learned from that and performs to their best - Edwards, Sellers & Vakks are what this team needs this season - let’s go Friars #pcbb

Frey got about the same vote share he did last election in the first rank and we're waiting to see if the Don't Rank Frey campaign is going to get enough transfers between the candidates in 2-4 positions to knock him out of office. That will require the vast majority of votes to go to Fateh

I went to the grocery store today for the first time in a few weeks for a big grocery shop & holy shit everything’s so expensive & shrinkflation is back. I have no idea how some people are going to afford to eat & the holidays are going to be very bleak this year for many -my heart hurts for them

Oh now you KNOW everyone knows the release of information is coming soon - this is a good thing but very late in coming
King Charles III has officially initiated the removal of all royal titles from his brother, Prince Andrew. The unprecedented move comes after Andrew has been under continued scrutiny for his ties to Jeffrey Epstein.

Now that’s how you frame it
Donald Trump has chosen to allow SNAP funding to lapse for millions on November 1st, for the first time in American history.

Why not all 3 - a trifecta of brain melt

The issue of the SNAP benefits not being paid due to the shut down really highlights how much the GOP has villainized poverty. The number 40 million gets tossed around a lot without any acknowledgment of the fact that 1 in 8 Americans means children & elderly & disabled people. It’s disgusting

They are gonna start killing people now, aren’t they? This feels like Govt sanctioned death squads will emerge
🚨BIG changes happening -- ICE leadership is being purged tonight. The old guard, which prioritized targeted enforcement operations aimed at people with criminal records, is being replaced with Border Patrol and Gregory Bovino's "Midway Blitz" style.

Think things are bad now? It'll get worse.

Wonder if it’s going to be SNAP or the air
Traffic controllers that end up blowing up the shutdown?…. Gosh are there any
MORE levers they can pull at this point??
It's really impressive to watch how little they've got and how bad they're flailing.

When the visual representation lines up with the psychological aspect of this administration, the penny drops & people get it —Trump feels obligated to no one & nothing
im sorry but if you think “normies” dont care about the white house being demolished for a half billion dollar golden vanity ballroom as the economy implodes then you just arent as plugged in as you think you are
October 24, 2025 at 1:22 PM
@schnorkles.bsky.social any read on what this is all about? I can’t imagine that they would take this issue up with everything else going on unless they are hell bent on turning most of the public against them

The most important detail is right in the first paragraph for people who understand how this administration operates – the White House said – not provided evidence for, not showed receipts, simply said, & it’s treated as if every other lie they have told doesn’t exist & that they have credibility.

They are moving as fast as they can because they know his days are numbered - he’s not well
People have said the ballroom is a sign that he won't leave, but imo it is the opposite a screwed-up way way to quickly secure a legacy in the only way he can process.

People are pissed and showing up to protest - singing and dancing and cheering

Watching the media, this weekend, giving some pushback to GOP talking points/lies when they involve people other than Trump has me curious whether they will revert to more normal style of reporting on politics when Trump staggers off to his eternal reward or is both sides-ing here to stay??

Go Portland!! This is actually the perfect antidote to the narrative that Portland is war torn

Everything starts breaking down when you pepper spray the priests. Tale as old as time.
NEW: I spoke to clergy and faith leaders who've joined protests at the Chicago-area ICE facility.

Three say they've been shot with pepper balls, sometimes while praying.

All say ICE is also violating their religious freedom, and one is arguing it in court. religionnews.com/2025/10/07/i...
