NEW: There will be no ruling tonight on DOJ's TRO request in U.S. v. California — the Trump administration's case over allegations relating to "likely noncitizen" voting in California — but, after a three-hour hearing today, Judge Carter says a decision will come on Wednesday.

Perhaps one of the most ignorant statements ever uttered. Where shall we begin? How about Arabic numbers?

They think their voters are stupid and uninformed and Faux News makes sure of it. Many are in for rude awakening after the election and will probably blame the Dems.

A new 50-page report released by House Judiciary Committee Democrats includes a trove of evidence regarding allegations of sexual assault, including a new rape allegation from former Miss Switzerland, against Trump that the lawmakers say has been deliberately covered up by the DOJ.

A patriot speaks out on behalf of all of us.

Ebola outbreak in Congo has reached 10,000 confirmed cases, government data showed Tuesday, as health authorities race to slow the spread of the disease in multiple African countries.

CBS deleted this post and reposted it admitting that their original one was misleading. And the misleading post from CBS was intentionally misleading, not an innocent mistake. CBS continues to lose credibility.

A hunting trip to Mongolia furnishes cover for meetings between TrumpJr and Putin sidekick Umar Kremlëv. TrumpJr stood on stage with a wide smile as an auctioneer sold off the chance to join him on a week-long hunting trip in western Mongolia. “Will you beat $225,000? I’m giving you a bargain,” the

Donald Trump Jr. spent time hunting in Mongolia this summer with Russian oligarch Umar Kremlev. ​Reports reveal that Trump Jr. arrived in Mongolia in late August, where he was joined by Kremlev and oligarch Artur Martirosov, who flew in from Kazakhstan. The group spent two

When the next US Congress investigates corruption, Trump's oil-deal-of-the-century with Alejandro Betancourt, the face of Venezuelan corruption, should be top of its list. Two kleptocracies working together. Brilliant essay by @anneapplebaum.wsocial.eu www.theatlantic.com/magazine/202...

Everyone should read these threads I did about industry lobbyists and the EPA and understand them. Take the time to see the unambiguous evidence of what's happening now at this moment inside the EPA. Please retweet them. Please read them. Each one of the threads. It's happening in slow motion.

And of course, here is the story. These documents posted via these threads are a companion of sorts to the story. They also show the kind of work that goes on behind our reporting. You don't just go out to the field. You dig. For months Turn every page, Caro said. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/24/c...

Student anti-corruption protests sweep Vucic out of office in Serbia. People everywhere are sick of corruption. Our turn.

I don't know that there is a definitive line to cross that makes you say, "I live in a police state now" but when masked gunmen can routinely brutalize the public, citizen or immigrant alike, with impunity, you have reached that point.

NEW on @zeteo.com — Venues are *pulling out* of hosting Vivek Ramaswamy for his bus tour across Ohio in the closing days of the election. “We’re getting calls that people don’t want him there,” a top Ohio Republican says. “It’s that damn ad.” From @andrewperez.bsky.social and @swin24.bsky.social:

As turnout in Texas nears 3 million votes, Hispanic turnout is now exceeding presidential levels. More Hispanics have voted than did at this point in the 2024 presidential election. What's driving this huge increase? Young voters.

It's a Klan rally.

THIS SHOULD BE GETTING MORE ATTENTION Wedgewood Polls admitted that the vast majority of its election polls were based on fabricated data. And these major news orgs fell for it: The New York Times, POLITICO, Newsweek, MS NOW, The Hill, The Daily Beast & Breitbart.

* TRUMP ADMINISTRATION'S $8 BILLION IN DIESEL AID FOR FARMERS WILL NOT ARRIVE BEFORE NOVEMBER 3 ELECTION, SAYS ADMINISTRATION OFFICIAL @reuters.com

Several months ago …

This is what the Republican Party was offering the American people last night heading into the midterms.

GREG IP: “.. Trump called ‘tariff’ the most beautiful word in the dictionary. He somehow made it the most hated word in politics.” @wsj.com www.wsj.com/economy/trad...

Ramaswamy has produced an attack ad weaponizing the rape of his opponent, Amy Acton, when she was 12 years old. It features Acton’s mother, who abandoned Acton after she was raped by her step-father, fleeing the state with her husband. Here is the corporate money helping fund that ad.

This is intentional. The cruelty is the point. And anything to punish women for daring to control their fertility.

In case facts still matter — we have abandoned Ukraine in favor of Putin Russia was never a hoax

It looks like it may be worse than just betrayal; it looks like betrayal plus crooked side deals for Trump and cronies.

This ad is 🔥🔥🔥🔥

DDHQ FORECAST UPDATE (10/21): House FL-4: Likely Republican → Lean Republican FL-22: Lean Republican → Tossup MD-1: Safe Republican → Likely Republican Democrats now have a 78% probability of winning the House, and Republicans are favored in fewer than 200 seats.

Ukraine was winning the war, so Trump kneecapped Ukraine to help Russia. I wish it weren’t that simple, but it is. Our president is in bed with our enemies.

Outrageous 😖

Hi I am a LIAR, but seriously these lies are reasonable, no one can say they aren't reasonable lies, that would be scandalous.

JD - I've got 15 free minutes before my son's hockey practice ends, so let me see how many of Trump's enrichment schemes you didn't see that I can remind you of. 1/ First one is easy: Trump has executed over 30,000 stock trades, many on inside information, netting him millions.

everyone knows this but it still has to be said: a president who makes "improving a local good course" a public priority does not care about being a president. the country is his house and he's redecorating with your money.

The most remarkable thing is that Jan Crawford, chief legal correspondent for CBS News, thought that El-Sayed explaining the importance of freedom of religion in the Constitution *proved Tommy's point*, which was that El-Sayed is a terrorist sympathizer. Because he believes in THE CONSTITUTION
