#NoJusticeNoPeace

I am furious that there has been no justice for Good and Pretti.
Shot dead by federal agents for protesting, and no one held responsible.

And now this.

The Republicans own the whole shutdown.

Remember that and remind everyone else.

Truth:

The Rs are in charge of every branch of government and all the levers of power.

It is THEIR responsibility to keep the government open and functional.

THEY need to figure it out

And they can't, or we wouldn't be here

So my friend texted me that she thinks she knows where he got a pope's outfit for that pic.

I told her it was AI generated.

Silence.

We have no idea how many people don't understand tech and will be fooled by everything they see.

Several generations.

Dick Durbin will not run for reelection in 2026.

He is a good man, and was a good senator, but 80 years old, and no longer up to take on the load of today's politics. Time to pass the torch.

Now, how about @adamkinzinger.bsky.social or @casten.house.gov for #IL senator?

From Josh Marshal at TPM:

"NEW: The National Advisory Committee on Microbiological Criteria for Foods is (or was) an advisory committee housed within the USDA which provides outside expert advice to advance food safety across the US and across different levels of govt. It was ordered disbanded this afternoon.

...I'm told it's a pretty key part of the web of oversight that keeps the food we eat safe and generally not killing us."

Are you keeping up? They fired them all Thursday, then the Dept of Energy frantically called them to hire them back Friday.
The National Nuclear Security Administration.

WTF

@nikatjef
Read the link they attached.

I'm not sure people understand what it means to shut up the CDC et al.

The FDA alerts docs and hospitals when heart and lung machines are exploding *while in use* during bypass surgery.

They notify the medical community when patterns of fungal infections show that equipment isn't being cleaned properly.

When lettuce/carrots are killing people, they notify the public.

Every single thing they do saves American lives.

DAILY.

It doesn't matter how many times I watch these videos.

I am still horrified by my fellow Americans.

Why isn't the #NationalSecurity breach of all our telecommunications a bigger story in the news?

I still am seeing constant coverage of trump's every fart.

While the FBI tells all Americans to switch to encrypted apps for messaging.

A reminder that #JillStein works for Putin.

Her job in every election is to rile up enough people to have an effect on the outcome.

That is why we are seeing her emerge again.

BEWARE.

To anyone in #KaneCounty #IL :

A referendum will be on the Nov 5 ballot for land acquisition and forest preserve improvement.

Please vote YES.

It will cost $35 a year in taxes now, but will reduce your taxes by 2027.

Our natural lands need protection. We are the stewards. Please support the upkeep and maintenance.

"The crimes of a would-be assassin do not obligate us to ignore what Trump would do with the power he is demanding....Republicans can insist that the attempt on Trump’s life demands a swift coronation of the aspiring despot who leads their party, but you are not compelled to obey."

@br00t4c

Oh god. now we're hearing from Kayleigh McEnany again? I can't take it.

I just want to run and hide from The Convicted Felon and his blonde nincompoops.

@w7voa

And the next sentence should have been

"Therefore, the US will withhold all aid to Israel until this concrete plan is communicated, created and implemented."

The more I hear about this Israeli attack on World Central Kitchen workers, the more I think it was intentional. I don't care what Israel says.

It was in a deconflicted area. WCK was coordinating with the IDF. They were so clearly marked as food relief. Israel has precision weapons.

No.

This was intentional. Israel does not want Gazans to have food.

It's time for the world to unite and stop Israel.

They are out of control.
