1. JD Vance dismissed Tuesday's election as “a couple of elections in blue states” But there were contests nationwide, including in purple & red states And voters everywhere rejected the MAGA agenda Let's review popular.info/p/six-election-…

You read that headline right. The FBI is saying what we’ve been saying for months. Masked agents in our communities who don’t identify themselves is creating a trust and safety issue. It has to stop.

They know what they have done. They know there will be consequences. This is why the 2026 mid-terms are so critical. This is also why they will stop at nothing to win.

….and what it looks like to win real gains for Black communities in a moment like this. Essence captured the urgency of the conversation in this piece. READ ➡️ essence.com/news/black-leade…

👀 Scoop: IRS Direct File, the free government-backed program that let you file your taxes for free, is dead. IRS wrote to state tax agencies saying it would not be operational this coming tax season, per records I've obtained. IRS Direct File: 2023-2025.

The truth laid bare in my Op-Ed below: Taxpayers, donors, & the homeless have been betrayed by "advocacy organizations" % elite philanthropic foundations that claim to be helping. Our 1st clue was the numbers: we’ve poured 300% more public funding into homelessness programs over the last 12 years—under the federal Housing First mandate—yet homelessness rose by nearly 35%. Our 2nd clue came from the streets themselves: thousands say they are either told help is coming but it never arrives, or they’re offered drug paraphernalia but not a path to recovery and self-reliance. The Homeless Industrial Complex has been exposed in The Infiltrated report. We must now ensure that every elected official has this report in hand— and that, as voters, we hold electeds accountable to tying funding to real reductions in homelessness, not to padding the salaries of people who pretend to care.

Why are ICE agents being paid during the shutdown, but not air traffic controllers? 🤨

Not enough people are talking about this: Even before Trump cut off SNAP funding, he and Republicans in Congress made the biggest cuts to food assistance in U.S. history.

My modest proposal for @ZohranKMamdani is to spearhead a city version of this bill that California almost passed a decade ago. Change NYC’s Business Corporation Tax so small businesses that pay workers well get a tax break & big corporations that fleece workers get a tax hike.

Make data centers illegal.

50% of workers can't afford healthcare. People are using buy now, pay later apps to go into debt to buy groceries. GoFundMe has 250k pages for medical bills and 40k for tuition. … and Elon Musk gets a $1 trillion pay out. And people think moms getting SNAP are the problem.

JUST IN: Trump administration appeals order to pay states full SNAP benefits for November.

Another day, another video of ICE unlawfully demanding that a U.S. citizen “prove” their citizenship in the Chicago area. Reminder: In Illinois, U.S. citizens are not required to carry ID. Demanding proof of citizenship… or detaining anyone for not having it… is illegal.

CA is spending $17 million on private security to keep people who need housing out of vacant homes. The hypocrisy is out of control. We need to make sure our resources are used to help people find their way into homes, not keep them out.

WAKE UP AMERICA! The GOP is now blocking elections AND blocking the swearing in of Democratic candidates. This is all set up for 2026 and 2028. If we don't stop this now this will be our future.

Sounds like the perfect storyline for a documentary. Extra Pickles and the Gestapo.

THAT IS IT! THE CRUSTS ARE COMING OFF NEXT TIME! :)

You say that now, but one day meal team six could assault you with a deli weapon and…we will see who’s laughing. Probably you, but still.

The prosecutors said that Sandwich guy was the wurst of the wurst, but the jury said he's an American gyro.
