People in the replies acting like the current Cuban regime isn't authoritarian are irritating. The recent Cuban asylum seekers that Trump is deporting aren't wealthy plantation owners. Be serious.

there are people serving life sentences right now on thinner evidence than we have for "donald trump was jeffrey epstein's partner in serial rape" democrats-judiciary.house.gov/media-center...

i hope if nothing else, the media ignoring this finally stops people from saying "the reason the media doesn't run drumbeat scandal coverage on trump the way they did on Clinton is because Dems don't make a big deal of it like Republicans do"

691 words about Cheesecake. 434 words about rape.

the markets have essentially become a gauge for how much corruption the government in power is going to let the business class get away with

Interesting as well that what prompts this from Matt is the Brazilian elections where the development of “rooting interests” was preceded by a MAGA inspired coup attempt and alliance of international capital undermining democracy

NEW: "Donald Trump was an active participant in Jeffrey Epstein’s sexual abuse of young women during the mid-to-late 1990s," per new House Judiciary Dem report. Report has new allegation that Trump raped a 24-year-old and then promised the victim a visa & NYU admission, demanding she stay quiet.

the DOJ is basically acting as if the president’s delusions are true

If you really want to give people a scare, you might have to go as dang GAS PRICES this year!

How did DC lose Home Rule in the first place? In the I870s, Black elected officials began shaping public policy in DC, mandating equal pay for white and Black teachers and more. In retaliation, Congress began shrinking the role of DC’s locally elected government.

Been reading about a lot of very bad but entirely ordinary people throughout history for the next season of Past Lives (Everyday Villains). This guy is utterly typical. 1) Doesn't think he's doing anything wrong. 2) Permission structure in a system of hierarchical authority. 3) Benefits materially.

This one is especially funny. He talks about a nonprofit that trains women and LGBT people how to be welders. But he sees a trans flag at the welding school and suddenly the welding is a “professional-class insurgency” alienating the working class

Brazil going the way of South Korea. Basically around the world women are desperately trying to keep power out of the hands of incredibly stupid fascistic grifters while men keep trying to hand it over. Men are an embarrassing cringe gender.

Remember when Media & Political Elite promised US that Trump was tapping into “economic anxiety” not racism?

A personality disorder?

If the "Constitution" allows this then it is a bad Constitution and it should be changed

has mmfa or someone like that compiled a comparison of airtime and front page headlines given to hunter biden vs jared kushner, given that kushner's alleged corruption is about 1000x larger, you would expect it to receive more coverage than Hunter's, right?

The deeper reason Trump, Vance, and Ramaswamy are backing the vile rape ad is they think MAGA politics—the cruelty, the depravity, the viciousness—is still ascendant. They think doing this esesentially puts Trump on the ballot. Me and @jimswift.bsky.social on this: newrepublic.com/article/2169...

The New York Times wrote articles that were like "the impossible-to-characterize elusive politics of Elon Musk / he's lost interest in politics" right before he became *literally the largest GOP donor in history* the next election cycle. Twice. Two times!

This is what the Republican Party unambiguously is; whether you choose to support it is up to you

republicans’ closing message could not be clearer: they are the party of pedophile rapists

this is very good

Your takeaway from the Israeli statement should be to remember that the 3.4 million Palestinians of the West Bank live under a permanent and unaccountable military-security state that has existed for nearly sixty years, and that every major political party in Israel is committed to maintaining it.

Pedocon theory remains undefeated. There's a constituency for this.

The world’s richest man, a vast recipient of our tax dollars, is personally intervening in a war on behalf of Russia’s murderous dictatorship. Every public contract with firms he controls should be severed on national security grounds. This is legal & easy to do—> www.congress.gov/crs_external...

Q: The president is coming back to Georgia on Saturday-- OSSOFF: Good. It will remind Georgians of the president's failure

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...

there’s no middle ground position on this. either musk is forcibly rooted out of government infrastructure or every war proceeds at the whims and dictates of a generational buffoon

Pedocon theory strikes again in a new, innovative form of disgusting abuse in the Ohio governor's race.

yes. conservatives looked at the american experiment in mass, high quality education over the course of the 20th century and concluded that it was a failure that threatened to overturn existing hierarchies of status.

Your Harry Potter dollars funded this.

A 56-year-old Mexican man held at a federal immigration facility in Laredo was found dead in his cell Saturday morning. His family says the center would not give him medicine for diabetes, high blood pressure and a heart condition. He is the 7th person to die in ICE custody in Texas this year.

SCOOP: 'Tommy' from the now-viral exchange with Abdul El-Sayed is Thomas Teepell, a former staffer for Republican Senator Josh Hawley with close ties to Christian Nationalist Sean Feucht. He's the son of a former Bobby Jindal staffer whose consultant work was instrumental in getting Hawley elected.

Did Hill Dickinson really boo Martinez coming off with a head injury? Embarrassing

YOUR LOSER PRIORS: intellectually lazy, completely non-viable in the real world, laughable MY NOBLE PRIORS: confirmed easily and often, rigorously examined, a model for all to follow

They started on illegal immigrants, expanded it to legal immigrants, now are going after naturalized citizens. If you are not one of those groups, you are just somewhere further down the chain, but they will get to eliminating your rights eventually too.

"the attack on citizenship itself is both the very essence of the Trump movement and its most dangerous feature. From birtherism to the stolen-election myth, Trumpism can be understood as the notion that some Americans are not really Americans"

The kinda shit I'm on rn.

Trump's continued attacks on @repilhan.bsky.social the Somali American community, & our Muslim neighbors are a heinous attempt to distract from his complete & utter failure as president. Every American should be chilled to the bone: these are the actions of a dictatorship not a democracy.

Just thinking about this as the state harasses Ilhan Omar over 40 year old paperwork.
