This was the front page they chose the day Donald Trump said he'll jail his political opponents if he wins the White House.
A 🧵the @nytimes is failing to warn Americans of the harms & danger of Trump & the impacts of another Republican-manufactured #GovernmentShutdown
Instead today NYT devotes 25% of its #FrontPage to its fashion critic to whitewash the criminal Trump clan

DHS and the DNI position were created in response to September 11th. Protecting Americans from terrorism. Coordinating intelligence. Securing the homeland.

On a list full of all timers, “This is not regime change” is the absolute dumbest bullshit these goons have tried to get the American people to swallow

Check out this perspective from Tom Brady. A little about college football, but mostly it's about mental toughness, competition, and self belief.
"I wouldn't want it any other way."

Would Tom Brady have stayed at Michigan in today’s portal/NIL era? His answer is worth a listen.

The 60 Minutes kill job is a clusterfuck. Other than pulling Jimmy Kimmel, I’ve never seen media observers, producers, investors & advertisers so uniform in their consensus that this was a terrible idea, badly executed.
So much damage to undo. OTOH, do the Ellisons even care?

Damn I was actually excited to watch the World Cup draw but this Trump fealty show is just beyond pathetic…

Van Epps' margin in TN-07 looks like it'll be ~7 in a district Trump won by 22, a 15% swing to Dems:
Republicans are protecting FIFTY districts they won by 15% or less in 2024.
Including 17 districts within 5%.
A win's a win but this was not a good night for GOP midterm vibes

There are many reasons for the Democratic wave in '25 (and even more takes), but this is the big one. Trump is catastrophically failing at the one thing voters elected him to do.
...It's also something Dems have *zero* control over going into the midterms. Worth keeping in mind.

Ah, I see. So some states (run by the Trump regime's allies) should gerrymander. But if other states do it, that's illegal. Just another day of patriotism and impartiality at the US Department of Justice!

12 year olds. 6 year olds. 2 year olds. Forced to "defend" themselves if you can even call it that, against Trump's government lawyers in court.

Good morning. We've got a lot of work to do starting with the elections we need to win today. A reminder why it's so important: the people currently in charge of your government are lying criminal scoundrels
JUST IN: Feds explain how CBP vehicle involved in collision that led to woman being shot & criminally charged was moved from Chicago to Maine and then partially repaired while it was evidence in a criminal case. Doc documentcloud.org/documents/…

Forget "business genius" — there's a reason Wall Street BLACKLISTED this man! Trump's only skill is piling up debt and enriching himself while YOU foot the bill. He's never managed a successful business, and it shows. Now we're all gonna pay the price

Donald Trump's support for child molesters and their enablers is just outrageous. Damning. Shameful. And he's doing it for a bribe! Zhao is paying the Trump family millions of dollars. Could any patriotic American support this? nytimes.com/2025/10/23/techn…

Shout out to @juliewattsTV. Katie Porter is a damn good public servant and I think she'd make a strong Governor for California, but she was not at her best. Watts was unfazed: kept her cool, stayed on point while trying to steer the interview back on track. Journalist doing work.

Leaders eat last. In this era when the American President’s version of “leadership” is 100% about himself and his own interests, it’s easy to forget what real leadership is about.
Thank you @SenatorSlotkin for reminding us what it looks like.
Passing a bipartisan budget is a core function of Congress. Michigan just did it today, after tough, in-person, bipartisan negotiations. Until my Senate colleagues want to do the same — and have some sort of negotiation on the pending health care crisis — I will be withholding my pay for the duration of this shutdown.

Hard to imagine a better argument for eliminating the Electoral College.
By the way, there are over 20 million Trump voters in blue states: Trump does not give a damn about you because you can't help him.

This is why there's a shutdown. Trump's party-line rescissions cancelled billions in bipartisan, approved funding — that's a poison pill for a functional democracy.
