CRUELTY. ON PURPOSE! A contractor told NPR that Stephen Miller wanted ICE detention facilities to be CRUEL, not humane. Let that sink in. Deliberate human suffering as government policy. This is monstrous! Hold all those responsible accountable. #USDemocracy www.npr.org/2026/10/08/n...

Matthew Shepard was twenty-one years old. He was gentle and kind. On this night in 1998, he lay tied to a wooden fence for eighteen hours under the bright Wyoming stars. Not for any crime he committed. He lay there, alone and cold, simply for existing as a gay man.

Prop 40 is at best a Pyrrhic victory. The amount of money being spent currently to turn people out to pass Prop 41/42 means those are likely the same people who would pass Prop 39/Prop 43. 41/42/43 are all very bad for the state long term.

Hey, here's a random thought: maybe all of us who are Democrats and progressives should pause attacks on each other for the next three weeks and focus on beating Republicans. I promise our arguments will be so much more interesting in January after a blue tsunami.

A Google billionaire would rather spend $102 million fighting a billionaire tax in California, then contribute his fair share to the tax burden that is entirely on the middle and working classes in this country. #EatTheRich fortune.com/article/how-...

Google co-founder Sergey Brin has now spent $100 million to fight California’s proposed billionaire tax—he could owe $13 billion if he loses | Fortune
The state’s ultrawealthy, including Larry Page and Peter Thiel, have similarly donated to efforts opposing the wealth tax.

I'm begging Democrats to narrate to Americans why their brains are being doused with sick anti-trans hate as billionaire donors massively outspend Democrats.

What if Democrats let Elon Musk and the massive forces of capital buy this election?
It’s not victim-blaming to say that we must blame the villains if we want to make voters heroes.

Pathological liars just can’t stop lying. Trump: “I’m the only president that donated his salary. They pay me $550,000 a year.” The presidential salary is $400,000. JFK and Hoover donated their salaries and didn’t rob the country blind.

Fetterman is garbage. He betrays the people who fought for him when he was at his lowest point - and that fight is the only reason he’s in the senate. Now he’s actively working to raise money for Republican PACs.

The Gap Between the Rich and the Very, Very Rich Is Getting Wider
The 0.1% are worth $28 trillion, or about 15% of the nation’s total wealth. The average wealth for a household in this group is over $200 million.

One of the things to come from GamerGate was the gamification of torturing real, live women...hounding them out of their homes, making them look over their shoulders for years. It was treated as a joke, nbd, the work of a few bad apples--as all terrorism against women is--& that failure leads here.
