NEW: In the golf course case, Judge Reyes will hold a hearing Friday or Monday, ordering Associate Attorney General Stanley Woodward to attend. In addition to the show-cause order raised in her Monday opinion, Reyes now wants answers regarding Trump's Truth social post issued later Monday as well.

Can't believe he really said this...

lol. Denmark/Greenland mocking Trump. #DV1 #ProudBlue #Voices4Victory #USDemocracy youtube.com/shorts/kle2B...

What’s happening in Alaska is disgraceful. Trump says he ordered a DOJ suit that could delay certification if the GOP senator narrowly loses. I’m reposting a favorite 2020 Lincoln Project video. Watch closely, share it, and pass it along. Six years later, its message still hits hard. #Midterms2026

Lion…Snake…Giraffe…Bear

Eleven days after Ukraine's Starshield terminals started mysteriously malfunctioning, there is still nobody in Washington who wants to take responsibility, while Trump administration officials continue pointing fingers firmly at SpaceX CEO Elon Musk.

1/2 Corrupt SCOTUS rules against voters again. The Supreme Court just made voting harder for New Hampshire students, letting officials reject student IDs even as supporting proof of identity. Eligible voters could lose their chance to cast a ballot. thehill.com/homenews/cam...

Trump: "Ramaswamy put up a very powerful Ad about a mother saying that her daughter, Acton, is a liar, and much worse. The Press is trying to get him to 'take down the Ad.' Frankly, anybody whose mother spoke about daughter that way would normally lead to the daughter being precluded from serving"

With extreme weather & natural disasters on the rise, Americans should be able to turn to FEMA in moments of distress.   Instead, DHS funds are going to ballrooms, private planes, & political ads. Those are their priorities, not our families’ safety.

“.. more realistic estimate of the country’s proven reserves .. is about one-third of what it has reported, half a dozen experts told The Associated Press.” @apnews.com #Venezuela apnews.com/article/vene...

New SEC filings show that Mark Zuckerberg is preparing to pay California’s billionaire tax without losing control of Meta. So billionaires can afford to pay the tax? And they won't lose control of their companies or flee the state? Don’t fall for billionaires’ propaganda. Vote YES on Prop 40.

Ramaswamy is a sick, morally bankrupt piece of shit exploiting a woman’s rape at age 12 to win an election. He gave her estranged, abusive mother a platform to weaponize her childhood trauma. There is something profoundly fucking wrong with this man. He has no business holding public office. 🤬

Musk And Trump Killed Ukraine Civilians Defended By Starshield SpaceX abruptly implemented a speed cap on Ukraine's vital Starshield service on Oct. 14. Musk suggested Trump restrict Ukraine's Starshield and Trump agreed. Then they both lied about it. kyivindependent.com/musk-asked-t...

".. UnitedHealth and Humana increased the maximum amount an individual would need to pay for medical services in 2027 by 11 per cent and 8 per cent respectively. .. They also both raised the costs for prescription drug coverage by about 30 per cent .." $UNH $HUM

⚡️️What Russia's doing to Ukraine is 'fine,' Trump says. "Russia, frankly, has been fine on Ukraine. They haven't been doing much," Trump said, hours after a Russian drone strike in a public park killed six people, including two children.

DOJ's woeful attempt to disqualify Judge Reyes in the golf course case is rightly DENIED We will see the Trump administration in court bright and early Monday morning on our preliminary injunction motion!

Made a little video about my reporting on “Tommy” from the viral @abdulelsayed.bsky.social town hall

There is much to admire in Abdul El-Sayed's response to the GOP plant in his audience. But one of the most deft things he did was to point out (twice) that our Constitution protects our right to follow *no* religion, thereby casting Christian nationalist Tommy as the actual religious extremist.

Ouch, Tommy had to walk out after that.

🔥 “You voted to cover up the evidence even though you knew 14-year-old girls had been raped because Donald Trump told you to.” Sen. @ossoff.bsky.social savages Mike Collins to his face on the debate stage

A win for our forests and a reminder to keep fighting. Judge Vince Chhabria has temporarily blocked the Forest Service’s planned headquarters move from Washington, D.C., to Salt Lake City, Utah.

According to Reuters it was the Trump White House that ordered Ukraine's Starlink disabled, so Republicans were lying when they denied that. Trump and the GOP work for Russia. It's so embarrassing to be an American these days. www.reuters.com/world/europe...

Donald Trump made a deal with Putin for 36 million barrels of Russian diesel, but that amount won’t move US fuel prices lower. It’ll only fund Putin’s bloody war machine in Ukraine. Putin continues to play Trump like a fiddle.

4% increase in imports from Canada would easily replace the entire physical volume of diesel “negotiated” in the new US-Russia pact.

Of course Kash Patel wants to hand the UFC a NO-BID contract to train FBI agents. The UFC is a sports entertainment business. The FBI already trains agents in defensive tactics. And we’re supposed to believe Dana White, Trump’s buddy, runs the only organization in America qualified to do this.

that's great, but FWIW I already covered this nearly a month ago ;) (Cohn includes a lot of important info about the *legality* of this stunt, however) acasignups.net/26/09/12/tru...

Are you willing to call out r@pe/sexu@l harassment culture? Please read this important thread and get all the way to the bottom. That's the most important part! I really appreciate the fact that men like @drdind.bsky.social are speaking out & are working to make positive change!

The breast cancer center appealed thousands of Blue Cross reimbursements for being too low. At trial, the insurer revealed that it had never considered any of the appeals — and that they were pointless: “An appeal is not available to review an underpayment.” (Published April 2025)

You never know who you are inspiring. This is the true meaning of lifting others up. My kind of people! #Pinks

We’re honestly still taken aback by Elon advising the Pentagon on the future of wars. Didn’t we all see how badly he failed with DOGE?

The American Bar Association laid out the receipts. Big donors get appointments. Big money flows in, investigations disappear, pardons follow, regulations loosen and foreign governments get favorable treatment. The article calls it an “unprecedented pay-to-play culture.” #PayToPlayPresident

BREAKING: Davey Hearn reflecting pool prosecution dismissed WITH PREJUDICE That means the case cannot be brought again  Huge victory for Davey, for us at @democracydefendersfund.org & our legal team colleagues Washington Litigation Group and Steptoe--& for rule of law More to follow!

A win! A D.C. Superior Court judge has permanently barred Jeanine Pirro’s office from prosecuting a former Olympic canoeist over damage to the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool.

My grandparents survived the terrible abuse of the Federal Indian Boarding School Era. That trauma wasn't isolated to the past—it was carried down through my family all the way to me. And there are so many families like my own across Indian Country.

This morning, the Justice Department went after nearly an entire state's federal bench, all at once. The judges had said the government wasn't following court orders. The response was to try to remove the judges. Here's why every American should be paying attention. www.jackhopkinsnow.com

An evergreen concept

Draganfly Drones is promoted as a Saskatoon success story. They are run out of Tampa, Florida with top Trump military appointees on the board. Don Jr is an investor. The PM committed to building a Canadian supply chain for our defence. This stinks. charlieangus.substack.com/p/stop-don-j...

Fellas, we have to talk to our sons while they’re still young. This foundation👇🏽 is the way…
