For those that don't know. A sanctuary city is a policy refusing to hold individuals past their scheduled release date without a judicial warrant and not illegally held in jail past release date to be picked up by ICE.

Senate Democrats demand Judiciary Committee chairman Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-IA) share records from last week's botched questioning by Sen. Eric Schmitt (R-MO) of former Special Counsel Jack Smith Schmitt apparently still hasn't shared the materials he was using to seek to trap Smith. Memo to Grassley: "Republican Members asking a witness about documents that had not been shared with Democratic Members or their staff is a particularly egregious breach of these rules, a breach that has not yet been rectified as these records still have not been produced to Committee Democrats"

A racist woman in Connecticut called a black man an unhinged “N” word after she allegedly cut him off in traffic & then threw stuff at him from her car & when he threw stuff back she called the cops on him trying to get him in trouble. She also called him the “N” word again.

Trump is willing to start a civil war to stay in power.
NEW: As Colorado’s Tina Peters reportedly meets with President Trump to discuss an election “plan,” her attorney says the plan involves seizing ballots nationwide and discusses strategy for a potential civil war

A brother on Facebook keeps sharing this, and it keeps getting removed🤔. If you know him, please tag him here. I simply wanted to tidy it up and repost it. With election season approaching, people deserve to see this record again. Let's settle the claim: "#Democrats have done nothing for Black Americans." Are Democrats perfect NO, and Black Americans have every right to demand more. Still, "nothing" requires ignoring generations of laws, policies, and results that Black activists, organizers, and leaders forced into existence. The record: Truman: desegregated the armed forces (1948). #JFK : created affirmative action for federal contractors and signed the Equal Pay Act. #LBJ: signed the #CivilRightsAct, #VotingRightsAct, Fair Housing Act, #Medicare and #Medicaid, Head Start, the Economic Opportunity Act, and major education funding laws. #JimmyCarter: signed the Community Reinvestment Act, pushing banks to lend fairly in Black communities. #BillClinton: signed the Family and Medical Leave Act, Motor Voter law, Violence Against Women Act, and expanded the Earned Income Tax Credit. #BarackObama: signed the Affordable Care Act (cutting the Black uninsured rate by more than half), the Fair Sentencing Act, the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act, and Dodd-Frank. He appointed 62 Black #federaljudges, named the first Black attorney general, and nominated the first Black woman as deputy AG-equivalent leadership roles across government. He commuted more sentences than the six prior presidents combined. #JoeBiden: signed the American Rescue Plan (cutting child poverty to record lows), the Infrastructure Law, the Emmett Till Antilynching Act, and the Inflation Reduction Act. His administration delivered $17 billion to #HBCU’s, tripled SBA lending to Black-owned businesses, and confirmed 235 federal judges - including 66 Black judges and 40 #Blackwomen, more than any administration in history. He made #Juneteenth a federal holiday, selected #KamalaHarris as the first Black woman vice president, and nominated #KetanjiBrownJackson as the first Black woman on the Supreme Court. So when someone says "Democrats have done nothing," ask them which part they think doesn't exist: the Civil Rights Act? Medicare and Medicaid? The Fair Sentencing Act? The first Black VP? The first Black woman on the Supreme Court? The first Black President Black voters examine the whole record - civil rights, healthcare, education, courts, business, and economic opportunity. Democrats still owe Black America more, and accountability continues. "Nothing" is still false. What’s crazy I’m missing stuff! I'm putting the record back up. Read it, save it, share it - and bring the receipts.

Former Republican Gov. of South Carolina David Beasley, who has supported Trump in the past, says the president is “tearing this country apart” with divisive rhetoric: “The lack of civility in this nation is going down by the minute, and I don’t think people in America can take it much more.”

Some Texas voters opened their phones to a political text asking, “Are you white?” The messages target James Talarico and trace back to an attack site paid for by the outside group AMERIPAC. Read more: thegrio.com/2026/10/07/texas…

Ken Paxton likely just got his app vendor kicked off the App Store. They clearly lied when they submitted their app. Check out the nutrition label. They claim they don’t capture/track any data on personal devices. apps.apple.com/us/app/right-… #txlege

Sen. Thom Tillis says he expects there will be pressure on Mike Johnson to not seat the new Congress if Democrats win
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The outgoing Speaker has no role in seating the new House. Per the 20th Amendment terms end at noon Jan. 3; the Clerk prepares the roll of members-elect from state certificates under 2 U.S.C. § 26 and members-elect elect the Speaker. constitution.congress.gov/constitution/a… law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/2/… protectdemocracy.org/work/how-does-…

Hey @SenThomTillis, Read a civics book. Mike Johnson does not seat the next Congress. He is no longer speaker. The clerk calls the role of the members certified by each independent state. Those members first elect a new speaker, who then swears in and seats the members. The idea that slimy little Johnson can stop a duly elected Congress is nothing more than a fascists wet dream.
