Big trouble here for Scott Jennings. A $72.5 million defamation lawsuit is no small matter, especially when the allegations involve a manipulated video and a fabricated quote. This could get very ugly for him. It’s about time this sort of deception has consequences.

Brazilian judge orders investigation into JD Vance illegally financing Bolsonaro's campaign in Brasil www.washingtonpost.com/world/2026/1...

Shows you how cheaply Ken Paxton could be bought compared to Abbott. His bribe was a kitchen remodel for his girlfriend.

I can't really believe it but it seems to be the case that the Times has not covered a credible accusation of rape against the President of the United States, but has two solid stories on Obama's cheesecake factory quip.

lmao lfgoooo

Why is this not headline news??? www.mediaite.com/media/news/f...

“As I write this, the Washington Post has published at least 4 articles about Obama’s Cheesecake Factory line, and 0 articles about a new allegation of rape against Donald Trump, who has already been found liable for sexual assault.” — @jamisonfoser.bsky.social www.findinggravity.net/more-women-h...

JD’s bigotry is the story here. What a fucking asshole.

“This is the Epstein Administration because there are two types of people in it — people who are in the Epstein files and people who are covering up the Epstein files.” @sarahlongwell25.bsky.social “The Epstein Admin protects the Epstein Class, supported by the Epstein Court.” @dzaia40.bsky.social

Sarah Longwell: "This is the Epstein administration because there are two types of people in it — there are people who are in the Epstein files and there are people who are covering up the Epstein file."

1. Not sure when a new, on-the-record rape allegation against a sitting president isn’t considered news — especially considering Trump was found liable by a jury in a similar case — but it was ignored by most mainstream media outlets

691 words about Cheesecake. 434 words about rape.

the washington free beacon is trying to october surprise abdul by revealing his comms chief used to post bangers

Much easier for the media to lock in on faux Cheesecake Factory outrage than a House Dem report indicating Todd Blanche basically told Ghislaine Maxwell "stop talking" when she was about to discuss a girl that could more closely tie Trump to Epstein

The NYT story does not even include the word rape. Not once.

fyi they are moving the oval office outside today because the weather is gorgeous

RFK Jr is being a racist shitgibbon today, so I'm just going to throw this back into the universe.

A 2025 Nobel Prize winner in chemistry, Omar Yaghi is the son of Palestinian refugees who grew up in Jordan. He just left the US to move to China after raising concerns about rising anti-immigrant sentiment, like the kind shown here. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/china-than...

🚨 A bombshell new House Judiciary Democrats report details allegations from 11 women linking Trump to Jeffrey Epstein, including five who accuse Trump of sexual assault. The report also alleges a sweeping DOJ cover-up. We broke down the explosive findings.

This is a rare moment of bipartisanship. And a reliable indication that Darline Graham is a horrible, inexperienced nepo-candidate.

It’s just so appalling and enraging how casual and commonplace this has become. I’m out of words.

Who do I give to to get this in front of as many Michigan voters as possible?

The truest thing JD Vance has said in a long, long time.

Beyond disgusted by even more rape allegations against the President of the United States. "In total, more than 25 different women...have independently accused Donald Trump of rape, sexual assault, or other sexual misconduct." Report w/ new details: democrats-judiciary.house.gov/sites/evo-su...

Trump is BIG MAD about Obama saying the White House now looks like Saddam opened a Cheesecake Factory: "He's not a smart guy. He's not smart at all ... for you to say it's a Cheesecake Factory, that just shows why you were a lousy president"

El-Sayed on Trump's cognitive tests: "I went to medical school...In my neurology unit, I would have to give that MoCA exam...The only people that you give a MoCA test to are people who you worry may have cognitive deficits. By definition, if you're taking one of those tests, something's wrong."

Republican Shellie Flockhart, who called Iowa Democratic House candidate Sarah Trone Garriott "dangerous" for kids, actually pleaded guilty to endangering kids herself after authorities said she drove drunk with her children in the car in 2017.

The allegations against Donald Trump for sexual assault seem to have a common denominator: He is physically violent and intentionally inflicts pain on his victims. He likes to slam women and girls up against doors and walls as he roughly manhandles them. Donald Trump is a sick and twisted person.

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

In August, President Trump announced he had signed the “biggest oil deal in world history.” ProPublica reviewed the deal and found it gives a small group of people largely handpicked by the Trump administration long-term control of the enterprise.

🖤

See, incumbent has a b in it and many people don’t know that.

This is just pure racism. Republicans objectively are campaigning on little more than bigotry.

Trump is straight up saying during speeches that he wants white people coming to the country but not black. I don’t know what else people need to see.

No, they were middle-aged men wearing powdered wigs, elaborately embroidered hostess jackets, silk hose, and shoes with enormous buckles and substantial heels. In other words, our Constitution was written and signed by drag queens.

Trump admin arrests Colorado priest. Incarcerates him for over a year. Judge orders him released without charges. They release him without the wheelchair he needs -- other prisoners have to bodily carry him out. He's now being tested for latent TB: www.newsfromthestates.com/article/colo...

Writers Guild speaks out about tech platforms squashing the @alexgibneyfilm doc about Elon Musk: “A small handful of billionaires now own virtually every major media company, news outlet, social media platform and are demonstrating how this unchecked concentration threatens democratic discourse.”

"It's great to have the pope's support" -- Melania pretends that she, and not the Vatican, negotiated a limited ceasefire in Ukraine "She's doing better than the professionals," Trump says

After the recent Trump rallies, it's a novelty to see a president able to fill a venue again.
