This televised execution thing is really horrifying. And probably the best we can hope for is for no one to watch and make it a total ratings failure. Trump is doing murder porn for attention, and he should not succeed at that. If people watch, he'll do it again.

Senate Judiciary Democrats are asking Chair Chuck Grassley to apologize to Jack Smith on the behalf of his GOP committee members — especially for Republican Eric Schmitt. The letter also demands Grassley turn over the underlying records Schmitt used during the hearing.

Putin celebrated his 74th birthday with former German Chancellor Gerhard Schröder. No wonder he wanted Schröder representing the EU in peace talks. The man would sell out Ukraine and the entire EU.

This afternoon in Marble Hill, a New Yorker was shot by an ICE agent in a residential neighborhood. Early reports indicate agents surrounded him and a 5-year-old child in his car before firing multiple rounds. We believe the child was physically unharmed.

This is an unconscionable and incredibly serious situation. I have called the President; when we speak I will demand that he ends all ICE enforcement actions in our city. I will not stand by while ICE agents terrorize our communities.

Our thoughts are with the injured New Yorker and his family tonight. We are praying for his recovery.

Get ICE out of our neighborhoods. Get ICE out of our hospitals. Get ICE off our streets. Get ICE away from our children.

Abolish ICE.

Trump is sending Americans $500 checks with a letter blaming Biden for supposedly overcharging them for Obamacare. But as @citizencohn.bsky.social explains on MS NOW, there was no overcharge, and Trump is repackaging money meant to help run the ACA as a personal refund.

Here's the problem, though: when it came down to it it, when Tillis had his moment to make a choice and do the right (or wrong) thing, he chose the cowardly path and did the WRONG THING - repeatedly! In the end, we are defined by our ACTIONS, so that's who Tillis is. bluevirginia.us/2026/10/wedn...
"Sen. Thom Tillis on President Trump's Cabinet:

— Pete Hegseth is "the biggest regret of my career."
— Says he should have stopped RFK Jr. from becoming health secretary.
— Tulsi Gabbard won't be challenging anyone "for president of her local Mensa chapter. "
— Kristi Noem is a dog murderer
