The parents of Alex Pretti are done being silent. “We are here begging for the Department of Justice to do what is right and hold the men who murdered our son accountable for what they did,” said Susan Pretti, Alex’s mother.

"Even by the standards of this administration, the pursuit of Cassidy Hutchinson may be its nastiest and most repulsive move yet. . . The hounding of Hutchinson has an outsize moral dimension that lays bare the rot at the heart of the administration." harrylitman.substack.com/p/bring-me-t...

He doesn't have a valid passport? Looks like an illegal immigrant to me.

I hate seeing people call each other "fucking idiot" in the comments, but I have to admit ... the odds.

I think it's interesting that all of the political male I'm getting this week from Georgia Republicans carefully omits any hint of which party they belong to.

The political media is visibly chafing at the current situation, where Republicans are glaringly awful, fucking everything up, running deviant candidates everyone hates, and Dems are just being normal & winning. The force is out of balance. They are viscerally eager to go after Dems about something.

Autocrat rule outsted in Serbia. Three more-- in Brazil, Israel and the U.S.-- facing voters over the next ten days. Fingers crossed. www.theguardian.com/world/ng-int...

TIL this was Keisha Lance Bottoms' father. youtu.be/V4hd8IiNjGk?...

You can be sure this is not to protect Mar-A-Lago from the Russians. www.wptv.com/news/palm-be...

A wild story: the CEO of a US energy company whose plans were discussed during the Witkoff-Kushner-Putin negotiations resigns. Why? He learned that his company's main investor is a sanctioned Russian company, not the UAE www.nytimes.com/2026/10/23/u...

This story seems like it should have been held for April 1. www.reuters.com/science/new-...

JUST POSTED: Today at The NYT we are publishing a major investigation into how President Trump used his executive powers to expose millions of Americans to greater cancer risks. A six month-long investigation built on more than 10,000 pages of FOIA records. Read it www.nytimes.com/2026/10/24/c...

JUST POSTED: A Russian energy giant has secretly moved to acquire a position in a massive Alaska gas project. Its part of talks between Witkoff/Kushner & Putin. But CEO of US company resigns after learning of Russian money in the project. A wowzer of a story. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/23/u...

The plain fact of it is thus: the Trump administration wants to re-segregate higher education. It is a racist project straight-up-no-chaser. Accommodating any of this puts you on the wrong side of history, makes you a collaborator in this project. ballsandstrikes.org/law-politics...

The question is: Why did Trump derail peace talks?

At this point you can assume any Republican on any ballot is running for the office of "accomplice."

Ramaswamy seems to have lit himself on fire. Good.

The copy/paste Republican rants about Sharia law and communism seem to have abated for a day or so. What's the next wing nut talking point?

Metaphor police!

This cartoon of mine is shortlisted for the European Cartoon Award. I'm pretty happy with that. Not sure quite what the cartoons were judged on, but the fact it seems to be relevant EVERY SINGLE DAY must help.

This is sad. General Dwight D. Eisenhower’s historic World War II globe was broken when Pete Hegseth’s team dropped it while trying to move it into his office.

A Florida man was found dead in his home during a welfare check in July 2022. Weeks later, one of the officers who discovered his body moved into the home and spent years impersonating him, according to investigators.

It's true that Trump is not on the ballot. But his accomplices are.

Talarico: "We just found out that [Elon Musk] is almost single-handedly bankrolling this effort to install Ken Paxton in the U.S. Senate and defeat this movement...Elon Musk wants our land. He wants our water. He wants his very own personal United States senator. He is trying to buy Texas."

America exports $331 billion in arms and roughly $655 billion in digital services a year. All of it runs on one thing: customers trusting we won't switch them off. Trust is part of the product. open.substack.com/pub/alexande...

PAXTON: hey we're catching a lot of shit for holding our final rally at the alamo, the site of an infamous Texas doomed last stand TRUMP:

Slick Rick Jackson's election strategy is to spend millions of ad dollars painting Atlanta as a hellscape and blaming it all on Keisha Lance Bottoms. Probably works with rural whites who hate cities. Not much more.

Just murdering children.

This is what the short-fingered vulgarian considers "funny". He won't be laughing in 15 days. #AccountabilityIsComing11/3

Who woulda' thought Florida politics could be so swampy? Gov. Ron DeSantis allegedly diverted $10m in taxpayer money to his wife's charity. It's been headline news for months. Now the Florida GOP is suing TV stations, claiming it's a crime to report on records about the scandal.

And the NRA says more guns make us safer.

Dufus Tommy was a Republican party plant. www.thehandbasket.co/p/tommy-teep...

yesterday musk said that companies that "overstate claims about their product" will be banned from advertising on X, today he says that his cars are alive

Note: TikTok - 15% owned by Musk pal Larry Ellison - permanently banned our "Musk" the movie account on the platform. www.hollywoodreporter.com/news/politic...

Trump *himself* filed a financial disclosure form this year that asserted he made over a billion dollars last year. That's not a claim from the fake news, or the crazy liberals. That is Trump's own filing.

This is Tommy. Tommy had a question about my allegiances. Listen to the end to hear about his.

Bleecker Street, the film distributor overseeing the theatrical release of Alex Gibney's documentary Musk, was informed on Friday that the film's TikTok account was subject to "permanent suspension." tinyurl.com/4yd9997x

Some content back up BUT NO administrative access for No Kings organizers Does Meta not think we are paying attention? Pro-democracy state AG's, legislatures & regulators should be all over investigating this--& so should a new pro-democracy Congress THIS IS OUTRAGEOUS

One ridiculous stunt after another. Trump must go.
