The president of the United States is a rapist.

Hello, new followers. I track ICE flights and third-country removals at @prospect.org. This is what the ICE Air operation looked like yesterday, Oct. 23, 2026. --88 flights --14 removal stops --3 third-country removal stops --Nearly all adult passengers shackled at the ankles, wrists & waist.

None are so empty as those who are full of themselves. - Benjamin Whichcote

😳 here's pictures taken today of Trump's right and left hands. Both are looking really bad, and he's using makeup on each of them to try to mask it (note how the left one is now looking just as nasty as the right one -- that's new) (Aaron Schwartz/Getty)

I don’t care what side of the aisle you’re on, nobody should support this kind of deception. They created a fake pamphlet to spark trans outrage and sent it to every home in Texas. Then their paid shills continued the outrage on social media. Politics is broken.

JESUS: “I am publicly executed for your sins, as an ultimate sacrifice to defeat death as punishment.” EVANGELICALS: “LIVESTREAM EXECUTIONS! BRING BACK SHOOTING PEOPLE FOR CRIMES!”

Truth…

Elon Musk is trying to buy this Senate seat in Texas. He wants our land, he wants our water, and he wants his own personal U.S. senator. He’s trying to buy Texas. But on November 3rd, we’ll deliver a clear message to the world’s first trillionaire: Texas is not for sale.

Good.

Top of the US charts today in 1979: Herb Alpert’s “Rise” — famously recorded in one take. Grammy Award for Best Pop Instrumental. As Miles Davis said: “You hear three notes and you know it’s Herb Alpert.”

This is just one example of why we need to pay attention to state judicial races as much as our national offices:

It's in the PLAN to destroy AMERICAN DEMOCRACY

The last two years have been a disaster. Americans wanted a Congress and President focused on lowering their costs. Instead, they got a Republican Congress that rubber-stamped Trump’s reckless decisions and corruption every step of the way.

Continued secrecy surrounding the Epstein files, with Trump’s Justice Department still withholding records. A costly, senseless war with Iran that has driven prices even higher.

A $70 billion blank check for ICE and CBP to torment American communities and arrest hardworking immigrants—even after their agents shot and killed American citizens.

A law that is kicking millions of Americans off their health care while giving tax breaks to the wealthy. Millions of taxpayer dollars spent renovating the White House to Trump’s personal liking. Trump’s estimated fortune growing by billions while families struggled with rising costs.

I just want to remind people what nearly two years of Trump’s presidency—with Republicans controlling Congress and backing him every step of the way—have brought us: Sweeping tariffs costing households more than $1,000 a year.

A few months into President Donald Trump’s second term, political appointees at the Department of Homeland Security made an unusual request of its agency focused on cybersecurity: Secretly acquire a voting machine and hack it.

In an interview a political rival basically said that Ken Paxton will be Elon Musk personal senator. And that's after he takes all of Texas's water, best real estate, and whatever all that money he can buy with money scammed from us. Via Paxton like politician in fact we should coin that a paxtonite

Just 10 people have already poured over $1 BILLION into this year’s midterm elections. 90% has gone to Republicans. In the entire 2008 presidential cycle, the last election before Citizens United, total billionaire spending was $16 million. We need to get Big Money out of our democracy.

If this is true and America controls the Strait of Hormuz with Billions of barrels having passed through in the last few months… Why is Trump lifting sanctions on Russia and giving them billions of dollars for their oil? Especially since they are aiding Iran against our soldiers!

Jack Smith should be the next US Attorney General.

Actually, it’s ignorant, racist white people like this who are the real problem. They need to leave the rest of us alone so we can live in peace.
