Good evening friends and neighbors, Our travels this weekend took us to Dover's Crosstown Trails and a very active colony of beavers. We first came across a freshly felled tree nearly 12 inches across which was impressive on its own. As we followed the markings and downed limbs, we eventually spotted the beavers working. They were cutting and gathering wood, shaping channels, and moving branches through the water to build and reinforce their dams.

NEW: @propublica.org investigated the Chicago apartment raid where kids were zip-tied and citizens detained for hours. They find:

- NONE of the arrested were criminally charged
- NO evidence the building was "filled with TdA terrorists."
- ZERO legitimate reason for DHS to rappel from a Blackhawk.

Rep. Sibilia November 9th Update: Shutdown, Act 181, and Consolidated/Fidium complaints
Dear friends and neighbors, As we observe Veterans Day this coming week, I want to recognize those who have served our country and the families who have stood beside them. We are grateful. The federal government remains shut down in what is now the longest shutdown in U.S. history. For many, this feels like political theater, but the impacts on our neighbors are real.

Rep. Sibilia: November 2nd Community Update
Dear friends and neighbors, I want to start close to home. When things feel uncertain at the national level, Vermont communities continue to do what we always do. We take care of one another. The new community pantry at the Dover Free Library is an example of that spirit in action. Anyone who needs food is welcome to take what they need, and neighbors who are able can quietly contribute unexpired items.

The U.S. President posting an AI video of himself as “King Trump,” dumping shit on protesters shows his contempt for democracy. In a democracy, dissent is protected.

This is a fascist action. Fascist actions include dehumanizing dissenters.

Every elected Republican staying silent is complicit.

Sibilia: Disgust Isn’t Enough
Statement on Reported Misconduct by Young Republican Leaders The messages revealed by POLITICO this week are appalling — not just offensive, but dehumanizing. Leaders of Young Republican groups reportedly joked about gas chambers, slavery, rape, and Hitler, and used racist, antisemitic, and misogynistic language. That kind of rhetoric obscures everything good about public service. According to POLITICO, Vermont Senator Sam Douglass participated in those conversations, and his wife was quoted using an antisemitic slur.

For the first time in history, renewables generated more electricity than coal. The world is moving fast to build the clean energy economy, lower costs, and create jobs. U.S. policy is slowing that progress. The world is not waiting for us. messaging-custom-newsletters.nytimes.com/dynamic/rend...

Dear friends and neighbors, I hope this finds you well and that you are able to enjoy some of the early fall colors. This is one of my favorite times of year in Vermont. Many of you have told me you are worried about rising political rhetoric and violence. This month, President Trump signed an order trying to classify Antifa as a domestic terrorist organization, though it is unclear if that is legally possible.

Names NY, LA & Chicago but skips red‑state murder hotspots: Memphis, St. Louis, New Orleans. Also ignored Jan. 6 D.C. violence that he fomented, and that he pardoned and freed 100s of convicted rioters.

It’s not about crime; it’s about seizing power. #resist

Women are also the kind of people that lead our troops, are lethal to our enemies and run our towns, state and country ✌🏼🇺🇸 💪🏼
You are unfit to lead U.S. troops. Resign.
