So the Senate pulled one over on lil Mike Grindr Johnson and the House.

🤭

How will they sabotage the Epstein Transparency Act next?

www.ms.now/news/senate-...
A smartphone screenshot of an ms.now article showing highlighted text from the bill discussion. The excerpt notes that after the House passed the Epstein bill, Senate Majority Leader John Thune suggested the Senate might move forward quickly without amendments. Speaker Johnson pushed back, saying he would insist on changes. The user has highlighted this entire section in blue. Screenshot of the ms.now news article titled, “Senate suddenly passes the Epstein bill just hours after it cleared the House.” A photo of a U.S. senator appears beneath the headline, wearing a suit and glasses while looking down thoughtfully. The background is solid blue with ms.now branding at the top.

Trump’s rolling back food tariffs because of cost-of-living pressure.

But wait—
I thought Americans didn’t pay the tariffs?

Should we check if windmills still cause cancer while we’re at it?

www.wsj.com/economy/trad...
Screenshot of a Wall Street Journal article titled “Trump Implements Major Rollback of Food Tariffs,” published November 14, 2025. The subheadline reads, “President moves to lower duties on beef, coffee and dozens of other goods as cost-of-living concerns rise.” Below the headline is an image of a woman shopping in the coffee aisle at Target, reaching for Starbucks Veranda Blend K-Cups priced at $15.49. The caption under the photo states: “Newly exempted products include many common food items.” The article notes that Trump is rolling back his own previously imposed tariffs in response to rising economic pressure.

Huh.

“What did the Democratic Party get out of the longest government shutdown in history?”

Pick me! I know this one!

• Public embarrassment
• Absolutely zero concessions
• A fresh trauma response every time someone says “compromise”

Bought-off leaders do sell-out things. Learn this lesson.

He should run for office.

Way to go, Sandwich Guy.
A group of law enforcement officers—including police and FBI agents—stand around a young man in a pink shirt and light shorts being handcuffed on a sidewalk at night. A second person appears to be speaking to officers near a blue recycling bin labeled with a city services sticker. The scene is lit by streetlights and a nearby “One Way” sign. The Guardian headline reads: “Man who threw sandwich at US federal agent found not guilty of assault,” with a subheading explaining that the former justice department employee’s lawyers claimed it was a “harmless gesture” during a protest.

Peaceful protest used to be a right — now it’s treated like a crime. I’m furious.

That’s exactly why I made these protest buttons.

threadtheresistance.etsy.com/listing/4364...
Close-up of three protest buttons pinned to a denim jacket. One says “PROTECT AND SERVE WHO?” beside an illustration of the White House, another reads “YOUR BUDGET IS SHOWING” over camo print goggles, and a smaller one says “BOOTS OFF MY BLOCK.” The kind of flair you wear when you’re done pretending this is normal. Grid of anti-militarization protest buttons with slogans like “No Tanks at Farmer’s Market,” “Protect and Serve Who?,” “No Child Should Fear Recess,” and “Your Budget Is Showing.” Basically a bingo card for every way the police state has lost the plot.

JD Vance isn’t just saying Usha should convert.

He’s also saying she’s a sinner until she does.

That’s the Christian nationalist party line — and by repeating it publicly, he’s flashing the “I’m one of you” signal to MAGA Christians.

JD Vance and his wife, Usha, sit side by side in white chairs at a formal event. Vance wears a navy blue suit with a red tie and a small American flag pin, while Usha wears a striking red suit, holding his hand and looking slightly upward with a solemn expression. Behind them are rows of other attendees in formal attire. The Guardian headline reads: “JD Vance repeats comments he wants wife Usha to convert to Christianity.”

This is Ralphy. He was a butterfly and he liked it.

Pit bulls are super scary. 🥹
A smiling woman (me) with wavy pink hair sits cross-legged on the floor in front of a lit fireplace, reading the book Fairy Tale by Stephen King. Beside her lies a large Pit Bull wearing a pastel butterfly costume with colorful spots, resting on a blanket and looking toward the camera. The cozy indoor scene glows with warm firelight.

Two Russian mobsters sentenced to 25 years for plotting to kill Masih Alinejad on US soil.

“She committed the crime of being a woman with a voice.”

Wonder how long before Putin makes the call and Trump picks up the pen.

🔗 www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
Masih Alinejad stands outside a New York courthouse in a light coat and scarf, smiling as she greets a crowd of supporters. Several women surround her, also smiling, some holding phones or papers. This photo was taken on March 18, 2025, after she testified at the trial of two Russian men convicted of plotting to assassinate her at her home. Courthouse buildings and leafless trees are visible in the background under clear daylight.

Jesus. I picked today to watch Annie.

The one from my elder millennial childhood. See me reaching for nostalgia to cope?

Why did I do that today? Slipped my mind they went to the White House… to see FDR… who built the East fucking Wing.

I *sobbed* the whole way through Tomorrow.
Promotional still from the 1982 film Annie showing four characters singing together in a stately White House–style room with chandeliers and a portrait of George Washington in the background. The characters appear joyful, dressed in formal clothing. The film’s logo is visible in the bottom left corner. While the setting resembles a White House interior such as the East Wing or another ceremonial room, this was a movie set rather than the actual location.* *Duh. Thanks ChatGPT. You suck at the one job I give you. But I included it for spite.

What’s happening?

A White House ballroom is being built—not with public funding, but by private megadonors.

It’s a down payment on future influence.These donors are buying proximity, buying protection, and helping solidify a regime known for retaliation, corruption, and authoritarian leanings.

I’m still pissed - and gutted.

The donor list for Trump’s White House ballroom felt overwhelming — like how do we even begin to protest this?

So I broke it down into small, doable actions. If you’re upset too, here’s how you can push back — even in 5-10 min chunks.

Aerial view of the White House and nearby government buildings in Washington, D.C., surrounded by autumn trees. The East Wing area appears demolished, with construction debris and cleared ground visible where the historic structure once stood. The scene is both surreal and heartbreaking against the familiar backdrop of the capital. Graphic titled “The White House Ballroom Donor-Collaborators” in large white and orange text on a blue background. Below, two columns list names of corporations and individuals who funded or supported the ballroom, including: Adelson Family Foundation, Amazon, Apple, Booz Allen Hamilton Inc., Cameron and Tyler Winklevoss, Comcast, Google, Lockheed Martin, Meta Platforms, Microsoft, Palantir Technologies Inc., Stephen A. Schwarzman, T-Mobile, and others. The handle @jfoxtales appears at the bottom in orange text.

“Who the fuck did they think the 17-year-old at the table was?”

Only Melinda Gates met Epstein once and knew enough to walk away. The rest? Willfully blind or worse.

This is a review of Virginia Giuffre’s newly released memoir — and even the review is powerful.

www.theguardian.com/books/2025/o...
Virginia Roberts Giuffre sits solemnly in a white blouse with a bow collar, holding a photo of herself as a teenage girl—an image from the time she was trafficked by Jeffrey Epstein. The Guardian headline below reads: “Nobody’s Girl by Virginia Roberts Giuffre review – a devastating exposé of power, corruption and abuse.” The subhead notes the posthumous memoir reveals the life-wrecking impact of Epstein’s crimes and her transformation into a hero. Review by Emma Brockes, dated Mon 20 Oct 2025.

Oh.

“A ‘blatant violation of the cease‑fire agreement’,” Israel says, after an anti‑tank missile and gunfire hit troops in southern Gaza. Hamas denies responsibility.

Benjamin Netanyahu convenes a security review — the truce is already unravelling. As predicted.

www.wsj.com/world/middle...
Screenshot of a Wall Street Journal article excerpt. It highlights a paragraph reporting that Hamas militants targeted Israeli troops in Gaza with an anti-tank missile and gunfire. The Israeli military claims the attack violated the cease-fire, prompting retaliatory strikes and political pressure on Prime Minister Netanyahu to escalate. Red annotation marks highlight the phrase: “the Israeli military said.”

Ok I just posted this button in my shop *today* and how could I not share it here?! I’m obsessed with this message obviously! You nailed it.

Round pin-back button featuring a lounging green cartoon frog with a content smile, propped on one elbow while resting on an open book. The text “FREE PEOPLE” arches above the frog and “READ FREELY” curves below in bold purple font. Background features a playful rainbow gradient from blue to green to purple with outlined book illustrations scattered throughout, giving a vibrant, whimsical library vibe. Same round button as Image 1, now pinned to the front pocket of a black leather backpack. The design reads “FREE PEOPLE READ FREELY” in bold purple text around the lounging cartoon frog on an open book. The close-up view of the button adds a sense of everyday activism and subtle rebellion, with the message standing out against the dark, textured leather backdrop.

@mcuban.bsky.social reminding me exactly why I made these.

Some people build guillotines out of cardboard, I build them out of sarcasm and resistance merch.
White vinyl sticker showing a detailed guillotine sketch beside the phrase “Billionaire Severance Package — Some Assembly Required.” Ideal for laptops, water bottles, or subtly terrifying your local venture capitalist. Survives most conditions—except moral bankruptcy. Round protest button reading “No One Earns a Billion Dollars” in bright pink and teal on a dark background, with a stick figure lounging on piles of cash. Perfect for when you want to say “eat the rich,” but make it ✨economically literate✨. Available in 3 sizes — because billionaires come in all shapes too.

Her 85th birthday wish wasn’t cake or candles — it was to march. ✊

A woman ordered five “No Kings” shirts from my shop for her mom and friends so they could protest together today. 💙

She even followed up to order four buttons for more friends joining — one in a motorized scooter.
Back view of a Bella + Canvas Heather Blue t-shirt hanging on a rustic wooden ladder. The shirt features a bold circular protest design with a yellow crown crossed out by a red prohibition symbol and the words “DEMOCRACY HAS NO KINGS” in white and navy blue text encircling the image. A small inset shows the shirt’s front with a smaller matching symbol printed on the upper chest. The mockup background is light and minimalist, emphasizing the soft blue color and casual knotted hem styling. Round metal protest button reading “DEMOCRACY HAS NO KINGS” in white and navy blue around a black crown crossed out by a red prohibition symbol.

The military is leaking.

Admiral Holsey, touted as a steady Black leader, will step down as U.S. operations in the Caribbean spiral.

He “raised concerns” — but is being pushed out anyway.

This is how they purge dissent in plain sight.

www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
Admiral Alvin Holsey stands in full Navy uniform, looking stern and focused, under dramatic overhead lighting that creates a spotlight effect. His uniform is decorated with a high number of service ribbons and insignia, and his name tag is visible. The background is dark with rows of circular white lights fading into blur, enhancing the intensity of the moment. The headline reads, “US admiral to retire amid military strikes in Caribbean and tensions with Venezuela.” Subhead: “Alvin Holsey just took over the US southern command late last year for a position that normally lasts three years.”

Trump confirmed he authorized CIA operations in Venezuela — then claimed the country “emptied their prisons” into the U.S.

“We’re looking at land now,” he added.

This is what manufactured crisis looks like.

Screenshot of a Guardian headline reading: “Trump confirms he authorized covert CIA operations in Venezuela.” Subheading says, “Move marks sharp escalation in efforts to pressure Maduro as Trump says US considering land attacks against cartels.” The image shows Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro speaking at a podium with two microphones, wearing a red jacket and gesturing with his hand raised. This marks a major breach in protocol, as U.S. presidents rarely confirm covert CIA actions—especially not during a campaign. The Guardian’s blue and yellow site header is visible at the top.

Look at how Lady Trump has to stand to cover his rotting hand.

What a loser.
Dr. Oz speaks at a White House podium labeled “President of the United States,” flanked by a stone-faced RFK Jr. and a weirdly motionless Donald Trump, who’s standing stiffly with one hand awkwardly tucked out of view like it might be rotting off. Behind them, a chaotic mix of Space Force flags and gaudy gold wall decor makes the room look like Versailles got lost in a Hobby Lobby. Trump watches Oz like a man hoping nobody notices he just made up a number.
