It’s Saturday! Today, maybe, is all about recharging. To have a chill day. Or; to take a breather. Or; to keep it low-key. Or; to take a day to reset. A slow day is a good day. Put your rest mode: ON! Enjoy it. Let’s go! Be careful. Be safe. Be shiny. Be glimmer. Be you to the full. Take no shit.

This is fucking insane. It reads like a bad spy novel. The corruption is almost cartoonish at this point. www.vanityfair.com/story/jared-...

Trump summons a conclave of MAGA Republican Catholic bishops to the Oval Office to demonstrate their fealty to him and to bless his election campaign. The Vatican is not amused. Expect early retirement for many of them.

This ad is 🔥🔥🔥🔥

Lowest approval since Truman is pretty fucking impressive. I think we can do better, though.

Brian Kilmeade is not putting up with Rachel Campos-Duffy’s propaganda. “It would be the biggest mistake of his administration to work with Russia. That is the modern Hitler of our generation.”

I just realized I forgot to post this: Here’s part 2 of my AI and National Security series: This part is focused on strategic risks, threats we aren’t yet measuring, and risk mitigation. Unlocked for everyone. www.patreon.com/AWHSBlog/pos...

Shit! 😳 Let’s make this nationwide.

MAGA, I ask again: Do you ever get tired of defending this petulant, whiny beta male?

Hawaii enacted a law that could neuter Citizens United. Montana could soon follow suit via a ballot referendum. Here's what you should know about the plans to get Big Money out of politics — and how they could be replicated where you live.

Someone please tell Natalie to keep the incoherent ranting to 500 characters or less.

New at Strength In Numbers this morning: Despite claims from some pundits and Republican strategists of biased and "fake" polling data, the polls and fundamentals basically agree on the blue wave: www.gelliottmorris.com/p/2026-10-04...

Many states have engaged in wrongful purging and there are just days left until those same states close voter registration. Please stay fierce and keep checking! www.dontgetpurged.org

I think we all saw that coming

Trump and his family are profiting off of war while American families pay the price. op: nathancjun via IG

Like everything else Trump “fixes,” the reflecting pool (along with the war in Iran, gas prices, beef prices, and mortgage rates) is in exponentially worse shape than when he started.

holy shit -- turns out Jack Smith went to a Hawkeyes game in Maryland but Schmitt's team is so reckless they concocted a conspiracy theory that Smith was actually in Atlanta seeing a Hawks game and colluding with Fani Willis. Klobuchar points out to Schmitt, "you have your teams wrong."

Way too close, but thankfully someone was paying attention and alerted the police before this got really bad. They reportedly tried to call RAF Fairford to report 3 suspicious vans, but couldn’t get an answer from the base.

Sounds like the hackers got more than we've been told. I want to know if they got the Epstein files. www.rawstory.com/hackers-fbi-...

I have some thoughts on AI and national security. I started writing this prior to the panic over the weekend, but it seemed important to finish part 1 quickly in light of the chaos. Unlocked for everyone: www.patreon.com/AWHSBlog/pos...

When the public finally learns the full accounting of the damage done in this war, it’ll probably be too late to hold anyone in the Trump administration accountable. But this is insane. And they’re lying to the American people.

Diesel hit $6 a gallon this week—the highest in average price AAA has ever recorded. Mainers can't take it anymore. Susan Collins allowed this to happen, and she's got to go.

Today's Kinzinger Report is out (link in reply) and we cover: - Republicans are fleeing Trump's own midterm convention - DHS agents are hunting voter fraud that doesn't exist - Whistleblower says ICE handed out badges before background checks - The White House is lawyering up for a midterm loss

Today's Kinzinger Report is out and we cover: - Fox fires Maria Bartiromo for leaking to the White House - The DOJ fires the prosecutor who tried to hold an ICE agent accountable - The Missouri Supreme Court throws out Trump's gerrymander - House Republicans cancel the rest of September

The Pentagon influencer scandal keeps getting bigger. More partisan online personalities. More government jobs. More taxpayer money. Who hired them, what are they being paid to do, and are military officers violating the UCMJ? This deserves answers.

The Founders didn’t build America around one religion. They knew government had no business deciding who was “American enough” based on faith. That wasn’t a footnote to the founding—it was part of the bargain. In 2026, we really shouldn’t need the reminder. Yet here we are. Share it. #Midterm2026

You can either tell the truth or you can work for Trump. You can’t do both.

Trump may disagree with Pirro, but there are apparently limits to how much she’s willing to lie to propagate his narrative. If DOJ had any evidence, even circumstantial, they would be charging people.

This is obscene. Trump orders safe conduct for Alexei Mordashov's $500 mn superyacht, Nord. Mordashov is a key Kremlin henchman who has expanded his fortune building bombs Putin dropped on hospitals and nurseries in Ukraine. He is a war criminal. But Trump just loves him because of his ostentation.

It takes me 2.5 minutes to explain why it’s a lie that we gave all the weapons to Ukraine that we needed for Iran. But the lie can be said in one sentence. We’re at a disadvantage when reality is nuanced. But the truth is essential

Trump’s DOJ is making it possible to buy a gun online and have it delivered directly to your doorstep. A company called GrabAGun stands to reap big profits. You’ll never guess who owns it. youtube.com/shorts/bKu4c...

Periodic reminder that Ukraine is one of our best allies. Between the intelligence sharing, capability sharing (drones, counter drone systems), and the fact they’re degrading the capability of one of our primary adversaries, anyone rooting against them looks even dumber now.

These fucking morons are trying to blame BIDEN for the Strategic Petroleum Reserves being at record lows. You can’t make this shit up.

Sending ICE Agents to intimidate voters at polling places, declaring martial law to try to delay or cancel the election, seizing ballots-As he gets more desperate, there's nothing he won't do to try to save his pathetic orange ass. ALL states should preemptively prepare to defend Democracy! 🇺🇸 ✊

THIS 👇 HERE TOO.......

The most important thing to remember about Trump’s press conference last night is that the war in Iran is still out of control, gas prices are still through the roof, and the administration is still hiding the Epstein files from the American people.

Remember back in 2020 when we found out about Trump's secret bank account in China, and that China's biggest state-controlled bank had rented out three floors in Trump Tower? I sure do. Interesting timing given his lies about China interfering in the 2020 election. www.nytimes.com/2020/10/20/u...

Says the guy who, after losing in a free & fair election, incited an insurrection against his own country: the very definition of treason. #ImpeachConvictRemoveImprison

1. If I may toot my own horn here, when the history of 21st Century science fiction literature is written, the my contribution to it will be as the one who made humor in science fiction marketable again. When I started out, I was literally told it was difficult/impossible to sell SF as humor...

Cartoonists Are The Only Real Journalists Left In The USA.

So ICE has thugs wearing “media” vests and masks filming protesters, something that is totally normal in a democracy www.ctinsider.com/news/article...

🤣🤣🤣 Perfect answer

I'm glad that Graham Platner is out. But it is so disturbing to contemplate that the man who was *twice* elected president makes Platner look like an amateur when it comes to serial sexual assaults.

This is an insane security failure. Thankfully, Macron was not harmed, but these videos are nuts.

More ships attacked. Folks have to understand that Iran really has no incentive to negotiate in good faith - they know Trump wants this war to end, and they have all the leverage. They’re going to take what money they can get and drag out the political pain for Trump as long as possible.
