Vivek Ramaswamy’s ad targeting Amy Acton’s childhood sexual abuse backfired. It prompted Ohio’s largest newspaper, The Plain Dealer, to reverse its policy on political endorsements and endorse Acton for governor.

Corporate profits are at record highs — but revenue from corporate taxes has plummeted thanks to the tax cuts in Trump and Republicans’ big, ugly bill. Meanwhile, workers’ wages are stagnant and their share of the nation’s income is at a record low. Trickle-down economics was always a hoax.

In his acceptance speech, Lula says he will work to regulate digital platforms in Brazil. “Digital crimes must be dealt with like real-life crimes.” This comes after Meta directly interfered with the Brazilian elections, favouring Flávio Bolsonaro.

yup.

thehandbasket.coRepublicans don’t have a Nazi problem—they are the Nazi problemA spate of recent revelations have shown the ideologies and their adherents are one and the same.

This week’s main story is about how more and more white nationalists, antisemites, and Nazi sympathizers seem to be integrating into the Republican Party, how some of them are currently running for office, and how old you can be for JD Vance to consider you “a very young boy.”

I think the lesson from Lula is not never talk about the opposition; it's articulate a positive vision that's basically, We Can Just Do Things. That's why Mamdani-ism is so popular - voters have an intrinsic sense that their electeds have agency they're not using

Key lessons from Brazil Amplify our people. Ignore the opposition. Use the tools owned by fascists to defeat the fascists? Meet the people where they are. May need to reconsider my staunch position of boycotting Meta for the reason. Thoughts?

I’m not a political journalist, so was gladly surprised at the community I found here last night. To Americans anxious about the upcoming elections, a key thing we learned in Brazil that might help you: DO NOT engage with the far-right online. Don’t share rage bait. Amplify your people. Ignore them.

Jeffries & Schumer are "whiskey dick." Good intensions, but not firm enough to get the job done. Why? Because Project 2025 was out 7 months before this presidency, and they came to DC in Jan 2025 with NOTHING! No plan other than to react after the fact. That's NOT leadership.

What is NOT clear is if Hakeem Jeffries will be Speaker of the House. We don't want him. He wasn't there for us when we needed him to stand up & be strong & we don't trust him to do that now, at this late date

I’m not impressed with HK’s answer. I want STRONG DECISIVE POWER! I want my country back & better. I want EVERY CRIMINAL SOB to be held accountable! I want a PLAN IN PLACE before 1/3/27. (There better be one!) Because we know what’s going to be going on from 11/4/26 until the change of power!

Trump on high gas prices: I don't give a damn. We're making a freaking fortune.

“We’re making a fricking fortune,” Trump said. Who’s the we? “We” is he…the Trump family…billionaire cronies profiting off of the corruption and crime…oil execs who gave him millions. This is the “we” who Trump cares about—always has, always will. www.americaamerica.news/p/showing-tr...

americaamerica.newsShowing Trump Who “We the People” AreWhile Donald Trump serves himself, his family and his cronies, Americans can soon make clear that “we” are more powerful than “he”
