Lots of opportunities for Republicans to somehow fumble this and reclaim all blame for the shutdown.

Last night was a vote to invoke cloture on a motion to proceed to consideration of a CR that still expires on November 21st, by its terms.

Lots of work and lots of votes between that and reopening.

The resistance to fascism is alive & well. The resistance to cruelty is alive & well. The resistance to golden bathrooms & ballrooms is alive & well. The resistance to a madman who singlehandedly fucked up the economy for middle class/working class Americans is alive & well.

For example, the Dems should say "The government is shut down because Republicans are asking Democrats to provide bipartisan cover for a constitutional crime spree—something they can’t in good conscience do." Always read @brianbeutler.bsky.social .

Here’s the thing. Today’s right doesn’t believe in the Constitution or the rule of law. Today’s right embraces authoritarianism, they’re fine with fascism, bcuz they long for a strongman. Which is why I’m no longer part of the right, and why today’s right is utterly un-American.

I can’t believe I’m watching interviews of city mayors talking about how they are coordinating with other mayors to discuss how to protect their residents FROM THE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES

I know we are “used to it” but it is absolutely insane

My take as well.

Wake up America!
I hope it's clear to everyone now that Trump really is going for it - he's trying to become a dictator. I don't know if he'll succeed, but he's working to install himself as an autocrat unaccountable to voters. And he's weaponizing the military against Americans who oppose him as part of that effort

The Department of Homeland Security is under fire after releasing a video of immigration raids spliced with Pokémon imagery and set to the franchise’s iconic theme song — a stunt critics blasted as “ICE propaganda for kids” and that has already drawn calls for Nintendo to intervene.
“Gotta Catch ’Em All”: DHS Sparks Outrage With Pokémon-Themed ICE Raid Propaganda
The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) thought it had found a clever hook for its latest immigration crackdown campaign. But what it unleashed instead was a public relations disaster. On Monday,…

Trump posts a deranged message to Pam Bondi pressuring her to prosecute his political enemies after a U.S. attorney quit because he refused to fabricate charges: “We can’t delay any longer, it’s killing our reputation and credibility.”

No laughing matter
I see a lot of Democrats laughing off the Antifa 'domestic terrorists' designation. You're forgetting MAGA blames "Antifa" for everything including January 6th. Perhaps next 'No Kings Day' they decide it was organized by 'Antifa.' They don't need proof to ruin your life.

Why are we not hearing this from republicans?
A new report from the Yale School of Public Health Humanitarian Lab shows Russia is holding kidnapped Ukrainian children at more than 200 sites where they are being forced into“re-education programs” and even subjected to military training.

We need to find these kids and bring them home.

The words from Gov Cox of Utah are the words they should be coming from the president of the United States.

Will the media hold him, and people like Nancy Mace accountable for their false accusations?

Trump critics have claimed that in his lewd drawing of a naked girl for Jeffrey Epstein, he used his signature to represent pubic hair. In fact, the girl was too young to have any pubic hair. Three Pinocchios.

What if every legitimate news outlet resolved to share lies by politicians only if they immediately corrected the lies? What if they stopped letting lies go unchallenged?
The media’s failure to defend the truth is giving a free ride to fascism.

Exactly
Rand Paul: "It might be ironic if in the end the protectionist flavor of the day - the tariffs we're putting on - brought together our enemies & ultimately led to the collapse of the reserve currency of the world... if you put a 50% tariff on Indian goods, India will become closer to China & Russia"

This “explicit” is a weird editorial choice. The constitution gives the president no power over this at all. It’s not ambiguous.

Of this I have no doubt.
NEWS: Walgreens just got taken over by private equity.
 
Private equity has a record of running companies into the ground.
 
Walgreens could be the latest victim: closing more stores, service plummeting, workers losing their jobs, and eventually bankruptcy.
