my message: Christians did this in 1943. They did it in part because they were fed scripted/scriptural lies about protecting their communities and that poison slowly became "popular" and forced, so that an honest man couldn't stand up. /anti-Christian Trump-Miller /the censoring of Rusty Bowers

293 days since Renée Good mowed down gangland-style by masked men, before a long string of others. The Vikings have more "wins" than the DA. To be frank, nothing is going to change until "law enforcemeat" officer takes some kid of the Court for a ride and drops them off somewhere, right?

Trump & enablers' fear of accountability is ⬆️⬆️ So are their dirty tricks to avoid it. "Over the next wk, we will face the political equivalent of the fog of war" Lies, schemes & fear mongering will worsen. Stay focused. 7 days. Final stretch VOTE early. Tell everyone you can to do it iwillvote.com

That's NOT a prescription. Rather, it's simple an historical observation that conservatives "don't care" (in various ways) about human rights until their own start to get roundly violated, then they start to sing their praises.

Putin out today with verbal cover/encouragement of Trump orbit's self-enrichment schemes and transparent effort to stick-it to our NATO allies.

This new report today with my NYT colleague Anton Troianovski follows up on our earlier reporting this month on the Lukoil deal that would bring financial benefits to business partners of the Witkoff and Trump families. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/03/u...

Who's in Bob's Blender This Week? It's him. I guess RFK, Jr. couldn't get a reservation at Cheesecake factory, so he blew himself up for His Deceiver. But he's put lives at risk, so he's gotta go. He's gotta go.

Lil’ Marco serves up some pastries from Saddam Insane’s Bakery, as per Barack Obama’s quip about all the gold in the Oral Office at the Whore House.

Trump is going to have to take five laps around a NASCAR track in the beast to undo the damage of the Cheesecake quip. (you can bet he's _pissed_ about that)

2-cents: this is why "issue politics" is not the whole answer. you have to 'campaign' on rw bullshit, not in the ordinary sense but, yes, head-on, with a _long-term_ campaign, so that when the appeal hits the ear, it's ... not standalone. u don't fight to "win", unless u can, u fight to neutralize.

To 'The Forgotten Man' of the Peninsula, the GOP comes this cycle to promise... a tortilla, pollution, broccoli, "Lake America", a piece of ass for whiteness Evangelicals to call "patriot", and one other thing: a kind of racism that will never pay for groceries but for billionaires to get rich on.

Trump says he examined Jon Husted’s ass to groans but then says Nikki Minaj has a nice ass to cheers

Democratic leaders can certainly think it's unfair that Republicans have a propaganda media operation that sends their messages out 24/7 to tens of millions of people every day. But simply saying it's unfair does nothing. You must build in response.

One Way to Prepare for Disasters Re-upping for the 'highly agentic' Ramaswamy campaign. [I crack myself up. Sorry, Daniel - I'm not a serious person.]

When thinking of disasters, we too often focus on the individual level (prepping, insurance) or the state (early warning systems, mitigation infrastructure). But we overlook the role of our social networks in helping us survive and thrive www.youtube.com/watch?v=p4oY...

Message sent, message received: 1. America is a faithless ally, as long as all of MAGA is not stamped out 2. Imagine your "AI future", your factory, your car, your air-traffic, your farming equipment, your electric grid - all able to be shut-off or impaired by a Class-B shareowner.

Thread 🧵: the fraudulent transgender mailers have a connection back to Dallas, Texas, where a local Republican megadonor used a similar playbook years ago when he funded a fake BLM group to send letters to wealthy white parents that were designed to discredit the BLM movement.

The Fall Campaign is A Fraud on the Public Everyone is expecting Operation Make the Rubble Bounce, the next hapless mega-escalation of the illegal war to extend all Bibi's wars. Voters should get a say. Yet the GOP is fraudulently hiding their plans in various ways (except from their brokers?).

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth told U.S. troops and Pentagon civilians they cannot use inside information to gamble on military operations.

hear, hear - the digital age is coming to a grinding halt, ya'll just don't want to hear it because [insert mojo du jour]

More and more services getting pushy about 'is this you', apparently baffled that I have multiple browsers that connect through multiple connection points, and I use a vpn. 2FA, passkeys, biometrics, wtf else can I do? (not an advice request, just a finger to the sky)

Sex has gotten better in our lifetimes. I could explain, but perhaps it would be better to demonstrate.

Social media loves talking about how everything is getting worse. But what’s something that you’ve seen get _better_ in your lifetime?

🚨 NEW: The mother featured in Vivek Ramaswamy’s $4 MILLION attack ad against Amy Acton was found “not credible” by a court in an animal neglect case involving newborn kittens left in a 120°F car. Two kittens died. The disturbing details Ramaswamy’s ad leaves out:

What we’ve learned is that ‘space travel’ has quickly become like a utility and should be regulated like one.

wait till farmers in Nebraska find out that JD “Vance” knew all along that Trump was positioned against the economy after the mid-terms, when he’s going to ‘accelerate’ taking the ship down with him ...

All that money and he still can’t buy a plane ticket to Paris, the city of lights, to honeymoon with his new wife, whoever that might be for kids #16-20.

"She's a ghost" Stinky is headed to Mississippi to stink up the place, a last-minute afterthought on the "Let's Talk Dirty to White Evangelicals Tour".

Since Cindy won't debate me, figured I'd go straight to the top. President Trump, name the time and place — I’m ready.

The ancient Greeks didn't have the concept of Crassus, mostly because he was a Roman; but legend tells the story that they disposed of him by pouring gold down his throat, something that Ayn Rand didn't know about.

Priming Trump's corruption pump, golden ears for all the redHat Senators... It's really something, to go all last-minute dirty on it.

Steve Rattner@steverattner.bsky.social

Elon Musk gave $158 million to the GOP’s Senate super PAC in a last-ditch effort to head off Democratic momentum. That’s 58% of everything it raised last quarter.
