I really like that third pillar Simon has added in particular "threats to democracy, their rising and dangerous authoritarianism and traitorous abandonment of the American creed - particularly as we head into the many No Kings Day events across the country on October 18. This we already know and have been talking about: "is in clear physical and cognitive decline, and despite their information superiority his powers to persuade are ebbing.” I’ve been thinking this as well: "In essence the 2026 general election has begun, and we are seeing how extraordinarily out of position the Republicans are right now, how defensive they are.” As usual we have our work cut out for us. We must work together. This video is shorter than most of them after a day before get together. That orange guy is weak, weak, weak. WE are strong. Keep up the good fight against him. “We’re seeing a weakening of the United States all around the world through the buffonish behavior of our leader and the tariffs which have angered every government in the entire world through his getting humiliated repeatedly by Vladimir Putin looking like a chump and an idiot tht he is in the way that he’s bent the knee to Vladimir Putin again and again and again.” No more quotes; just listen. Simon is on fire as we all should be. - Dems Are Forcing Trump To Take Responsibility For The Harm He Is Doing To The Country (New Video And Analysis)

For those of you who have been watching what’s going on with the Colorado River, in particular the Little Colorado, this article is an excellent read. Think about this, most definitely food for thought: "That leads to other conflicts, most notably between the Upper and Lower Basins and between the states within each basin, over who should bear the brunt of the necessary cuts in consumption of at least 2 million to 4 million acre-feet per year. The states have until mid-November to come up with a post-2026 plan, though it’s not clear what will happen if they miss the deadline.” Solutions are presented here. Read to see what you think of them (there are 9) with other input. - Limiting the Colorado River conflict

This is a contrarian op ed by Jen Rubin. This includes quotes from that orange guy who thinks he’s king. She speaks of the military who were drawn back to Quantico to listen to those two unhinged speeches by incompetent Hegseth and that orange guy. Think about this statement for a minute: "Some likely left more convinced than ever that Trump is nuts and Hegseth is a joke.” Hearing the orange menace say, "'America is under invasion from within…no different than a foreign enemy, but more difficult in any ways because they don’t wear uniforms” would deeply disgust senior officers steeped in Constitutional norms and a sense of duty.’” Jen speaks of the people in Portland who have stood up to that convicted felon. Well written, most definitely worth reading. - Undaunted

This is great news IMO. The byline says it all. This is a discussion with Katie Phang and Adam Klasfeld. Judge has called for an evidentiary hearing. This is the video is a bit less than 30 minutes. Katie reads, “To prove this theory of actual vindictiveness, a defendant like Abrego Garcia can get a dismissal through the presentation of ‘objective evidence that a prosecutor acted in order to punish a defendant for standing on his legal rights. If a defendant presents evidence of the likelihood of vindictiveness then the district court must allow discovery and an evidentiary hearing on that issue.” Let that sink in. Guess where the clip Abrego used came from? Just watch the rest of this. Blanche IMO is screwed as is this current corrupt administration. - Judge finds Todd Blanche’s ‘confession’ may prove Abrego’s vindictive prosecution

ICE is at it again with no due process. This really angers me. THEY should be locked up. So should that guy in the Oval Office who is causing this mess, plus the fact that he IS a convicted felon. - Immigration Agents Handcuff Democratic Lawmaker at Hospital E.R.

One I missed yesterday, a Greg Sargent op-ed. Interesting byline. I swear those at the top are full of it and not that bright. All this will come back to BITE the GOP in the White House as well as in both houses of Congress. That orange one & Voight are really dumb. SMH. Let this sink in: “[T]his sadistic little game is also going to hurt real, live human beings.” This will help Dems, already is. And I’m laughing hard at those fools in the White House. - GOPer Quietly Admits Trump Cuts to Blue States Will Hurt MAGA Voters

Just proof that the GOP is lying about the shutdown. Just want to make sure y’all know the truth. We need to make sure to expose all the GOP lies. This is from SNOPES. - Democrats didn’t shut down government to fund care for ‘illegal aliens.’ Here’s context
