What is amazing is that you know every single MAGA member behind the scenes wants to move far beyond Comey shit, but their King on his deathbed desperately wants his enemies to pay a price for...announcing an investigation into Hillary Clinton
Depending on how you count, the charges Trump has filed against Comey have been declined 5X: Lying abt leaking to Richman: Declined in 2019, EDVA declined, then Halligan charged 8647: USSS declined to charge, then charged in EDNC Yahoo: declined by John Durham 2017, then again by Barr in 2020

"Fox News hosts are professional propagandists. I think they looked at Zacharia as someone who was not capable of covering for Donald Trump when he gets in trouble, someone who wouldn’t be able to lash out at the media for daring to cover him, and they helped her off stage because of that."
Vote against Republicans, America. It's clear as day what is going on with them. Have you ever been envious of Russia or China or north korea? Because that's where these guys want to take America. Have fun traveling the world. Vote against Republicans
Nobody's shocked that Jason Miller is the one posting Bolsonaro's refusal to concede. Trumpworld isn't just watching Brazil, they're coordinating. Same playbook, same people, different country. The authoritarian network is global, and it's poison.

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

He is remarkably consistent in supporting alleged perpetrators and enablers of sexual violence and attacking their victims
Trump: "Ramaswamy put up a very powerful Ad about a mother saying that her daughter, Acton, is a liar, and much worse. The Press is trying to get him to 'take down the Ad.' Frankly, anybody whose mother spoke about daughter that way would normally lead to the daughter being precluded from serving"

nobody stopped Musk before he broke the state monopoly on violence, so now either he goes or the nation-state does
Ukraine says the abrupt throttling of US-funded Starshield grounded dozens of drones mid-flight, costing one unit $1M+, and halted some strikes for three days (New York Times) Main Link | Techmeme Permalink
The world, but more specifically North America, took their eyes off the road when it comes to these billionaires like Elon Bezos Zuckerberg etc. These guys are in a race to control everything that they can. We need to revisit the rules to prevent these egos from taking us all down. #usa
Saw the new Musk documentary and it's simply not possible to hate him enough

the routine, pay for play pardons are all by themselves one of the worst corruption scandals in american history!
My brain cannot process this level of corruption. She was being paid $50 million to engineer a pardon from Trump *while working at the Justice Department* as a "Special Government Employee." And it worked. He got the pardon, and she got the money. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/20/u...

They're weirdly pressing two kinds of white supremacist lies at once -- some non-white immigrants are poverty-wracked criminals who are eating our dogs and cats, but other non-white immigrants are rich elites who are buying up mansions and flying first class. Pick a fucking lane, you clowns.
Stephen Miller claims Somali-Americans in Minnesota are "buying Mercedes, buying BMWs, they buy a nice house, all their kids fly first class all over the world" (This is a lie!)

This is quite possibly the most vile, despicable political attack ad I have ever seen. tiffinohio.net/posts/acton-...
Is still absolutely bananas that an American president has gone against America's historical position, and his own governments position, to side with Vladimir Putin in taking down another country. And it's been widely believed that he is compromised by Russia. Save yourself America
Donald Trump recently struck a deal to import Russian diesel fuel into the U.S. and exempted Russia from a sanctions bill passed by Congress. On Radio Atlantic, @jonlemire.bsky.social and @shustry.bsky.social discuss what’s behind the moves:

Republicans aren't even saying that their economic plan hasn't done what it's supposed to. This is the plan. While everyone struggles with high costs, Republicans see this as one of the greatest economies ever. Vote them out because their impression of success doesn't fit 95% of the population
Hassett claims that high mortgage rates and rising inflation is "hardly enough to overpower all the good news that we're seeing"
Costs are through the roof, and all of America's allies are being forced to walk away from them not by choice. And this guy in his Robo diaper is hoarding all the money for his family, and trying to get golf courses built and renovated. Anyone voting Republican are completely brainwashed.
Trump: "The Department of Interior wants to take a terrible and very unsafe golf course, and make it into a great, safe, and prestigious golf course ... They do not need an approval. Work is scheduled to begin IMMEDIATELY!"
Two out of three people know that Donald Trump and his family are using their position in the government to make themselves money. This should be an automatic lose. Donald Trump should honestly be resigning if he loses the House and Senate.
Washington Post has released series of new polling this morning Perhaps this is the most striking finding:

Ossoff: "It's the most corrupt administration of all time & everybody knows it. While the crook president & his crook family rake in billions from all over the world, you pay more for everything... they lied us into war & spent most of the last year covering up for the world's most famous pedophile"
