The USDA is giving the public just three weeks to weigh in on a key step of its attempt to scrap the Roadless Rule, which protects almost 59 million acres of forest land from road construction and timber harvesting.
I hope RFK Jr is in charge of Donald Trump’s health.

It’s important that everyone act as if the federal government is occupied by a group of Nazi sympathizing, neo-Confederate insurrectionists who are opposed to multiracial democracy and at war with the constitution—because that’s exactly what’s happening.
Promise tariffs ⟶ faff around ⟶ announce tariffs ⟶ pause tariffs ⟶ promise deals ⟶ court rules tariffs illegal ⟶ appeal ⟶ court order stayed ⟶ make no deals ⟶ 90 days expires ⟶ delay tariffs again ⟶ announce tariffs again ⟶ appeals court rules tariffs illegal again ⟶ you are here
llegal then. Illegal now. Hopefully, still out of bounds after October 14. Countries taxed by #TrumpTariffs should now ignore his calls and threats, no matter how the puppets on his Supreme Court rule. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Apparently, no one seems particularly bothered, but for the past few days, Trump has been talking repeatedly about being a dictator. If Americans don’t want that, the window to stop him is closing quickly.
#ResistanceRoots Today in history, 2016: San Francisco 49ers quarterback Colin Kaepernick remains seated during the national anthem at an NFL preseason game. His simple act of protest against racial injustice created a controversy that ended his football career. /1
tRump's incompetence knows no limits! "A Social Security whistleblower says hundreds of millions of Americans are at risk after their personal data was recklessly uploaded to a vulnerable cloud server, which one of the most notorious DOGE operatives, “Big Balls,” could access." #Voices4Victory
Sen. Warren on Trump's attempt to fire Fed Governor Lisa Cook: "The illegal attempt to fire Lisa Cook is the latest example of a desperate President searching for a scapegoat ... It's an authoritarian power grab that blatantly violates the Federal Reserve Act, and must be overturned in court."
Dear journalists: The President has not fired Lisa Cook. The President is *trying* to illegally fire her. Your words shape people’s reality. Please be accurate in your reporting.
Updated this piece to reflect that Trump said he has fired Lisa Cook, something the Supreme Court said he does not have authority to do.
Trump is deploying the military into DC and perhaps other cities in order to instigate violence that can trigger the GOP Congress and SCOTUS to suspend civil liberties and possibly elections. If it doesn't work, I'd expect him to recruit GOP paramilitaries like the Oath Keepers within the next year.
Guerrilla actions!
#AveloAirlines wouldn’t admit it, but community protests helped force #AveloAirlines to leave #HumboldtCountyCA.

#Trump: ‘All non-White women in jobs of power or significance must resign by Friday or face burning at the stake.’
Don’t mess with Texas women. While one Democratic lawmaker said this was "corny af”, Reps Venton Jones and Terry Meza dragged their DPS troopers to a gay bar in Dallas. #txlege
Texas Rep. Sheryl Cole (D) said her DPS escort, who “was forced upon” her to track her “every movement” — lost track of her on a trail, blew up and “made a scene” in front of her constituents. This is why Democratic Legislators don't need babysitters. www.statesman.com/news/article...

Racist agenda to Make Slavery Great Again. That includes locking up and controlling Blacks, Brown people like me, Asians and anyone not born on the MAGA Plantation. Includes all women too. Maybe not Ice Barbie, Pam Blondi, Propaganda Barbie and all these other lady MAGAs.
I’d love to know what these world leaders are thinking about this clown 🤡 show.
I wonder that too. A Demo sleepover would’ve been a strong stand and message.
D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser’s statement: "Having American soldiers and airmen patrolling American streets against American citizens isn’t patriotism — it’s a betrayal. It’s not who we are. It’s Un-American."
As a former Texas State Rep, let me be clear: LOCKING Rep. Nicole Collier inside the chamber is beyond outrageous. Forcing elected officials to sign “permission slips” & take police escorts to leave? That’s not procedure. That’s some old Jim Crow playbook.
Texas GOP legislative majority governs the only way they can: bully intimidation, anger and confusion. Go Representative Nicole Collier! #txlege
Today @theguardian.com : Trump claims to have ended six wars and says he thought this would be the easiest one, but it’s a tough one. Ending Russia’s war on Urkraine should certainly earn him his much desired No Bells (or Whistles) Piece Prize. (Comes with bullets.) #TrumpLies #Urkraine #Zelenskyy
EU leaders must play as a team behind Zelenskyy. Strength and force is needed with the Big Beautiful Liar.

#BoycottMeta
Declaring a fake emergency as an excuse to deploy the military to police civilians is one of the most canonical examples of authoritarian takeovers. Overseas, people see clearly what Trump is doing. Here in America most people — especially those with power or influence — are in denial.

“You’ve seen that he doesn’t follow the law. I have talked about the fact that the Nazis in Germany in the 30s tore down a constitutional republic in just 53 days. It does not take much, frankly, and we have a president who seems hell-bent on doing just that.” - Illinois Governor JB Pritzker
The United States government has declared war on people of color in this country. Make no mistake about what is happening.
Rep. Jasmine Crockett clapped back at Gov. Abbott, reminding him Texas law allows breaking quorum. She called Abbott a “weakling” pushed by Trump to force redistricting, saying Texas voters didn’t pick Abbott to play Trump’s pawn in a shady political game. www.rawstory.com/greg-abbott-...
