No one on the Supreme Court should be able to take a billionaire’s money. Clarence Thomas did it for 20 years. Impeach him. Repost if you agree. 👇

MAGA grandma threatens to call police on Black woman—says "faking" being handicapped. Woman is disabled U.S. Marine veteran. "That's typical of you people!" she yells. "You act so entitled!" "You should thank me for my service," woman retorts. "I don't thank you for nothing!" "You're a liar!" The same exact thing happened to this woman just 2 weeks ago. She was harassed over parking in a handicap spot by an old white man—that time when she was trying to vote early. "If you saw my last video, you know I handled that situation calmly, respectfully, and without a single curse word," she explained. "But after reading all the comments telling me I was too nice... well, let's just say this lady got the response I should've given that man last week." Invisible disabilities are still disabilities—you cannot look at somebody and decide whether they are "disabled enough." Incident occurred in the accessible parking area outside Costco Wholesale in Katy, Texas. Felicia Bratcher doesn’t have an account on this platform—so posting first full length and credited video here to help raise awareness.
MAGA grandpa attacks Black woman U.S. Marine veteran—trying to cast her early vote. Accuses her of faking being handicapped. "I am 100% disabled," she says. "And I served in the Marine Corps as well." "Handicap isn't how someone looks." "I'm also a Gold Star Family because my husband and I were dual military." Woman's car is brand new and still has temporary tags. Permanent registration is designated for ISA disabled plates—something police can verify. But because he didn't see a placard hanging in the window, he told her, "You don't look disabled." Invisible disabilities are still disabilities—you cannot look at somebody and decide whether they are "disabled enough." Incident occurred at Tompkins High School in Katy, Texas.

I’ll be posting this every single day: SPREAD THIS FAR AND WIDE: Trump’s Big, Ugly Bill was designed to leave Americans feeling the pain long after Republicans passed it. When the worst cuts hit, don’t suddenly blame Democrats. REPUBLICANS WROTE IT. REPUBLICANS PASSED IT. REPUBLICANS OWN IT. Don’t let them rewrite history.

Stephen Miller is an extremist who has spent his whole career treating the Constitution as an obstacle, and now Donald Trump has made him White House Chief of Staff. Other than Trump himself, Miller may be the most dangerous man in America. Miller said the administration was actively looking at suspending habeas corpus, which would let the government seize people, detain them, and deport them with no judge, no hearing, and no lawyer.  Miller is the man behind the policy that tore children from their parents at the border.  Miller once went on national television and declared that the president's powers "will not be questioned." Miller has spent years operating in the shadows with no one to answer to. That ends in January. Democrats will hold the gavels. Miller will answer to Congress, under oath, for what he's done and what he's planning. Or he will suffer the consequences. We will defend the Constitution with everything we have. nbcnews.com/politics/donald-…

Vivek Ramaswamy was the match. JD Vance was the gasoline. By endorsing Vivek’s campaign ad, Vance may have ignited something MAGA can’t contain. The cracks are widening, the infighting is escalating, and the coalition may be starting to collapse from within.

The Washington Post just exposed Trump ally Laura Loomer. Financial records reveal that Loomer and her company received more than $60,000. Sources allege she was paid to push false political messaging online without disclosing who was funding it. And these are the same people who accuse ordinary Americans of being PAID PROTESTERS. FOLLOW THE MONEY. ALWAYS.

Mike Johnson has spent his time as Speaker of the House acting like his job is to serve Donald Trump rather than the American people.   And in doing so, he has made a mockery of the very institution he was elected to lead.   Congress is not an extension of the White House. It is a coequal branch of government, with the constitutional authority and responsibility to hold the president accountable.   But Mike Johnson apparently missed that civics lesson.   Rather than exercise that authority, he has spent his speakership surrendering it to Donald Trump at every opportunity.   Well, that changes now.   Democrats will use the full weight and power of Congress to investigate abuses of power, follow the money, expose corruption, and hold accountable anyone who has used public office to enrich themselves at the expense of the American people.   Mike Johnson may have forgotten who Congress works for.   We haven't.
Mike Johnson: Democrats will turn every committee of Congress into an investigative body. They’ll go after Trump's family, the cabinet, his donors, and friends.

🚨 BREAKING: UKRAINE SAYS NEPTUNE MISSILES STRUCK A RUSSIAN FACTORY SUPPLYING ISKANDER MISSILE COMPONENTS. Ukraine's military says it hit the Proton-Electrotex defense-electronics plant in Oryol, Russia, overnight November 6–7. A fire broke out. Explosions were reported. THE TARGET MATTERS MORE THAN THE FLAMES. According to Ukraine's General Staff, the factory produces electronic components used in Russia's Iskander-M ballistic missiles and Kover cruise missiles. This is reportedly the second strike on the facility in roughly two weeks. Ukraine is targeting the supply chain behind Russian missiles, not just the weapons themselves. The extent of production damage remains unknown. THE OBJECTIVE: DISRUPT RUSSIA'S ABILITY TO BUILD THE MISSILES IT USES AGAINST UKRAINE. Watch the reported strike footage. 👇

For generations, First Nations, Inuit, and Métis peoples have answered the call to serve in the Canadian Armed Forces. They defended a country that did not always defend them, and came home to a country that did not always honour their service. On Indigenous Veterans Day, we honour those who fought, those who wear the uniform today, and those who never came home.
Remembrance lives in the stories we share.    Today, on Indigenous Veterans Day, we honour Walter John James Williams, all Indigenous Veterans, and the families and communities ensuring their legacies are never forgotten.    Lest we forget 🇨🇦

The thing I keep returning to after watching the Musk documentary is not the fraud, not the lies about self-driving cars, not the staged battery swap in 2013 or the “flying car” demo in October. It is the question of how a person becomes this. You lie, the market rewards the lie, you lie bigger, the market rewards you bigger, the people around you who could stop you get fired or leave, and after about fifteen years of this you no longer know you are lying. You believe you are correct, and “correct” in your head now means correct about the shape of the future, about who should run things, about which humans matter. That is the god complex, which is a trained response to a market that would not say no.

BREAKING: “YOU'RE NOT HIS LAWYER!” Democrat Robert Garcia RIPS Trump's Attorney General Todd Blanche for offering Stephen Miller the entire Justice Department as his personal legal defense team! Rep. Robert Garcia fired back at Blanche's astonishing declaration that he and the entire Justice Department would serve as Stephen Miller's lawyers when Democrats begin investigating the incoming White House chief of staff. ““Todd Blanche is not Stephen Miller's lawyer. He's not the lawyer of the president,” Garcia told MS NOW. “At the end of the day, he's the lawyer for the Department of Justice and the people of this country.” Blanche had rushed to Miller's defense on Laura Ingraham's Fox News show after Garcia warned the architect of Trump's brutal immigration crackdown that he should “lawyer up.” “Stephen Miller has a lawyer. It's me. It's me and the entire Department of Justice,” Blanche declared. And Garcia has another bone to pick with Trump's attorney general. He accused Blanche of lacking the courage to appear before the Oversight Committee, despite months of requests and assurances from Republican Chairman James Comer that he would testify. “What is Todd Blanche afraid of?” Garcia demanded, accusing him of helping lead a White House cover-up involving the Jeffrey Epstein files and abandoning survivors seeking justice. “He doesn't want to answer questions because he's scared to,” Garcia said. The confrontation comes as Democrats prepare to take control of Congress in January and launch investigations into Miller's conduct and the administration's immigration enforcement operations. Blanche may think he can put the entire Justice Department at Miller's disposal, but Garcia has made it clear that the incoming Democratic majority intends to hold both men accountable. And unlike the Republican-led oversight committees in Congress, Democrats aren't going to be satisfied with Blanche's deflection and excuses. Time for leadership, Democrats!

These powerful words from Senator-elect @jamestalarico of Texas should be REQUIRED LISTENING for every conservative, religious extremist, and anyone who weaponizes faith to justify cruelty. Not Islam. Not Christianity. Not Judaism. Not Hinduism. No religion teaches us to abandon our neighbors, demonize the vulnerable, or strip struggling families of their healthcare. MAGA's strongest support came from deeply religious red states, yet so many of this administration's policies contradict the very Christian values its supporters claim to defend. You cannot preach love while practicing cruelty. You cannot claim to follow God while turning your back on the vulnerable. James Talarico articulated this contradiction brilliantly. A MUST-LISTEN message that transcends politics, religion, and borders! #JamesTalarico I #Midterms26

We should never forget how the "pro-life party," who lectured us on Biden's age, forced this clearly incapacitated man back into the Senate to vote on things he didn't understand so they could cut food assistance for poor people.

Ted Lieu is correct! Todd Blanche is supposed to be serving the American people, not serving as Trump’s personal attorney. 🤬 After he is investigated, he should be disbarred. Release the Epstein files, Blanche.
