"Some of the most grievous charges ever leveled against a senior U.S. federal official..." www.nytimes.com/2026/10/26/b...

Eight of Ken Paxton’s own top aides turned him in to the FBI. He fired four of them. Texas taxpayers paid $6.6 million for it. Now he wants a promotion to the Senate. Even the Bushes said no thanks. www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/the-bushes...

This morning on BBC Breakfast, Nigel Farage said he had received “zero help from the state” with his security. Yet reports say he had previously received publicly funded protection and was offered a taxpayer-funded package including a bodyguard, a secure car and a trained driver.

OOPS.

Election officials in Alaska are asking a federal judge to "immediately" dismiss the Trump DOJ's lawsuit seeking to block the Senate results, claiming it has "no legal basis." "[T]he United States lacks authority to intervene in state elections at all, much less in support of a favored candidate."

Exactly! #Pinks #USDemocracy

Lock 🔒 him up forever.

Super-rich get ‘double dividend’ from causes and costs of climate crisis, report finds #Climate

Four years in prison for a Zoom call. A grandmother jailed for climbing a motorway gantry. A mask ban where being ill is something you argue in court after arrest. All while the country burns through another drought summer. Where are the climate protests? This is where they went.

Hungarian PM Péter Magyar: "I have just spoken by phone with the leaders of the Students List, who won the elections in Serbia, to congratulate them... I assured them of Hungary’s support. I was delighted to hear how much strength our victory in April had given them during this difficult struggle."

This resurfaces and again, highly credible and under-reported by the big political press: people.com/former-miss-...

Ding ding fucking ding.

Trump’s presidency is a wealth transfer from the bottom to the top

John Pavlovitz Is Right ✅️ But We Must Vote In Overwhelming Numbers, So There's No Doubt...💙

A patriot speaks out on behalf of all of us.

🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨

NEW: The group behind Cornel West's 2024 ballot push was wholly funded through Elon Musk's dark money network, according to Sludge's review of tax documents. readsludge.com/2026/10/26/m...

Huge headlines around the world. In major US media, unreported. Something's fishy here.

Apparently, some Americans come considerably further down the list than others. And the most remarkable part of all this? He said it himself. You literally cannot make this stuff up.

Robert's Right ✅️.......

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...

Lula: "We had to overcome foreign interference through digital platforms, which we will have to regulate. A crime in the digital world must be treated the same as a crime in the real world. We cannot have monstrous companies earning millions... not paying taxes... wanting to steer elections."

House Judiciary Democrats have just released a 50-page report that pulls together years of assault allegations against Trump and his reported connections to Jeffrey Epstein. The report calls for a special counsel to investigate Trump's ties to Epstein.

Monstrous beyond all reckoning. The US is using remote sensing *designed for humanitarian purposes* for the opposite purpose, potentially drowning civilians en masse. Trump hates Somalis. His troops appear to be exploiting the weather to help slaughter them. www.theguardian.com/global-devel...

In the UK we are facing an unprecedented coalition of hostile states, enormously wealthy far-right individuals prepared to spend many hundreds of £millions to swing elections & a media & social media ecosystem which they almost entirely control - we are simply not ready youtu.be/8ap3DObeNEs?...

Since the beginning of Trump’s second term, American democracy has been unwound at frightening speed. Analysis by the V-Dem Institute shows the rate of democratic backsliding in US is faster than we saw in Hungary, India, Russia or Serbia And if we don’t take urgent action it could happen here too

“The case for Rejoin must be a case for Europe as our home: a continent…prepared to take on and defeat Russian imperialism, an economic union which can shelter countries from the storm of a global trade war” A team we want to belong to. Because it strengthens us all. www.arguably.uk/p/europe-is-...

Lula says action must be taken against the US Big Tech billionaires who tried to fix the Brazilian elections Brazil has the 2nd most Social Media users after the USA If Brazil banned US Big Tech and launched their own Social Media it would be a crippling blow to the US Fascists

Two-round electoral systems are very underrated - I’m always saying this

“The powerful can kill one, two, or 100 roses. But they’ll never stop the arrival of spring.” — Lula What an extraordinary victory for Brazil! The Brazilians beat back fascism at the ballot box. We can damn well do it here, too. VOTE!

What Jason Crow says. Indeed, isn't it obvious? How can a self-respecting country cede control over vital military systems in the middle of a war to a foreign drug addict? And how could this not be a defining issue in the midterm election? Yet US corporate media want to simply look the other way.

The Saturday march is significantly louder today, amid Constitutional Court hearings aimed at banning major opposition parties. Expect an even bigger rally tomorrow. The 696th consecutive day of protests in Georgia.

The challenge for the UK and France will be using their veto to block this, because it will heighten the debate about whether either of them should still be UNSC members. By tradition, they almost never use their veto these days, and def not against the US, but Orban as UNSG is intolerable.

What most people don't know: when you fill up a petrol car most of the energy never moves it. Petrol car: 13–21% of the crude oil's energy reaches wheels. Electric car on today's UK grid: 43–45%. Electric car on wind+solar: 77–80%. That's why we don't need to replace fossil energy one for one.

Every country should declare him a pariah and ban his products. He needs to lose everything and live in a cardboard box under a bridge for the rest of his life.

Why do we have to be shy about taxing the super rich? Nobody needs or deserves a billion €$.. FFS It's obscene. It's a failure of gov't and the economic system if it ever happens.

Just to be clear... Prop 40 is a ONE-TIME retroactive tax. It applies ONLY to billionaires and would tax just 5% of their wealth — which grew 30% in 2025. California's billionaires would still be worth $2T+ AFTER the tax. The revenue will fund healthcare for millions of Californians. Vote YES.

The world needed hope right now - and Brazil delivered it. After a wave of pro-American far-right candidates swept Latin America, Lula defied the odds. The world's fourth largest democracy has been saved from far-right authoritarianism. Here's to hope ✊

Absolutely 👇

🇷🇸 DEMOCRACY IS CONTAGIOUS! This surprise shift in Serbia is a lot like the ousting of Orbán. Serbia, too, had a Strongman leader for over a decade. Aleksandar Vučić was endorsed by Putin & his far-right party was autocratic & illiberal. Serbian Voters have turned a page on Serbia's history!! ✊🏻

Nicki Minaj seems like the perfect spokesperson for MAGA Republicans….

Angela Rayner, "We're 10 years on from Brexit, we now need to look at what the next 10 years will look like" "We've seen a 20% reduction in exports with the EU" "That's 16,000 businesses no longer exporting to the EU because of Brexit red tape"

It should have been all over when he said, “find 11,780 votes.”
