Damn good question.
I emailed Patrick Healy, assistant managing editor for standards and trust at NYT, to ask why their story about a House report with new details of rape allegations against the President of the United States included neither those details, nor a single use of the word "rape." archive.is/1s9AM

In August, President Trump announced he had signed the “biggest oil deal in world history.” ProPublica reviewed the deal and found it gives a small group of people largely handpicked by the Trump administration long-term control of the enterprise.

Trump-friendly oligarchs are buying up major media with the regime's help. They control CNN, CBS, Fox, TikTok, Meta, X and major local TV chains. Yet Mike Johnson is still claiming liberal bias. The real media conspiracy is the corporate consensus to normalize Johnson and other right-wing radicals.
Mike Johnson offers a conspiracy theory to explain away his party's dire polling: "I believe there's a concerted effort between Democrats and the mainstream media that's openly biased in their favor to discourage the Republican side"

X is owned by Musk. TikTok is blocking the Musk movie account. Meta blocked the No Kings account. This is why Democracy Docket is not built on SubStack or any third-party platform that could one day turn against it. It costs more to operate but is worth it. Subscribe now. demdock.com/4w6emld

Really unpopular things: -data centers -overt bigotry -CSAM -billionaires trying to buy elections -Hitler salutes -stealing people’s personal data -South African Apartheid -causing the deaths of hundreds of thousands, possibly millions, of children Fighting against Elon Musk is a political winner
X is the platform of choice for these smears. Musk himself pushed this conspiracy from his own account three times. Democrats need to go to war against Musk because he's already attacking them. He's deeply unpopular. And, as we saw in Wisconsin, voters recoil when he becomes an issue in a race.

Ramaswamy made his money through a scam. That's not success; it’s corruption. This election is the big chance in our lifetime to do something about the people who think politics is just there to enable ever bigger personal grifts.

Let me see if I understand this . . . 1. The U.S. is at war with Iran. 2. Russia is helping Iran in that war. 3. The U.S. is now giving Russia money that it can use to help Iran destroy U.S. bases and kill U.S. troops. Donald is smart & patriotic like that.
The first Russian diesel cargo heading for the US left St Petersburg on September 22, two weeks *before* Trump announced the deal with Putin, Windward reports. The Greek-flagged tanker Minerva Zen carrying 275,000 barrels of diesel/gasoil is due at the US East Coast around 11–12 October.

Even if you are callous enough to agree with the US purchasing diesel fuel from Russia and funding Putin's slaughter of innocent Ukrainian children, it's unclear that this ploy would actually work. Russian diesel production is down 30% this year and Brent crude still costs over $100 per barrel
This is completely outrageous and disgusting. This must immediately be blocked by Congress and Trump should be impeached for this. The US is now funding Putin’s war machine as he murders civilians including children. We are lost as a country.

Trump’s deal to buy Russian diesel from Putin just weeks before the midterms funnels money directly into Russia’s war machine. Trump is now facing calls for Congress to block the deal and impeach him. Meanwhile, energy analysts say it’s unlikely to even make a dent in fuel prices.

With our blowtorch start to October, it's now a near-lock that 2026 will finish as both Colorado's and Denver's hottest years on record. #COwx
This is both Colorado’s and Denver’s hottest start to a year on record (Jan-Sept), and it’s not even close. Statewide temps so far in 2026 are 1.6° warmer than 2012, a blowout for warmest year-to-date on record. The influence of a warming climate is clear on the chart below.

🚨 South Korea has shipped 176,000 tons of fuel to Russia, mostly diesel, using sanctioned Russian shadow fleet tankers in July and August 2026. This is why the South Korean government created a fake scandal attacking Zelensky over North Korean POWs. www.theguardian.com/world/2026/o...
