CBS deleted this post and reposted it admitting that their original one was misleading. And the misleading post from CBS was intentionally misleading, not an innocent mistake. CBS continues to lose credibility.

theres a few exceptions like the race where the republican is running on the platform that their opponent was raped as a child but for the most part they are just running on being the party of white people

"The woman, identified only as Maria, is a home care worker who had been on her way to pay rent and pick up a cake for her grandson’s birthday, SEIU said" We're reading about it because she belongs to a union & they're fighting alongside her. #KavanaughStop

“If the person is a U.S. citizen or otherwise lawfully in the United States, that individual will be free to go after the brief encounter.” Justice Brett Kavanaugh

Well played

Corporate profits are at record highs — but revenue from corporate taxes has plummeted thanks to the tax cuts in Trump and Republicans’ big, ugly bill. Meanwhile, workers’ wages are stagnant and their share of the nation’s income is at a record low. Trickle-down economics was always a hoax.

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.

If you paid any federal income tax last year, then you paid more than these profitable corporations. When I say the system is broken, this is what I mean.

New photo of Vivek Ramaswamy's 8th grade teacher protesting Vivek over his latest ad: "SHAME ON YOU, VIVEK! I TAUGHT YOU BETTER!"

Less than ever. Read it and weep (and maybe also vote).

Despicable destruction of a community. Nobody benefited from this insanity and everybody lost.

Tragically, some reporters are headlining the ad’s message and calling it “controversial“ or even “risky”. No. It’s a new low in political attack ads, impugning a well-documented incident of child rape and putting forth the mother who chose the rapist over her own children as a voice to be trusted.

"It may be a club none of its members actually want to be in, but the growing number of people in the US affected by extreme weather disasters are starting to organize into a political force." www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

The highest income pay a lot less. The rest of us pay more.

AWFUL false equivlence NYT headline: "Attack Ad Featuring Candidate’s Mother Turns Ohio Governor’s Race Even Uglier" cc: @markjacob.bsky.social .. you never know how it got so ugly!

“They would just ignore him.” Emiliano Andrade-Covarrubias, a lawful permanent resident, is the seventh person to die in ICE detention in Texas this year. While ICE reports his cause of death to be unknown, his family argues that his medical concerns were ignored. His family deserves answers.

Can’t fool all of the people all of the time

This is what we need nationwide

Remember when egg prices were $6 a dozen? It might not have been for the reasons you thought. In a new story from me and Steve Volk for @politico.com Magazine, we recount the alleged egg price-fixing conspiracy, the settlement with DOJ and what it means for our politics.

Are you in the richest 1%? If not, Trump is costing you.

Republican Rep. Andy Harris incorrectly told a reporter they were breaking the law as the reporter and others recorded an exchange with him last night. Harris had just wrapped up a debate with Democratic challenger Dan Schwartz.

We should tax billionaires and we should also tax multi-millionaires. These two things go pretty well together.

I’m sorry, what? This piece was not a joint publication/ reporting job (as some are). It was @propublica’s alone and the Times followed with a summary. This is so indicative of NYT. If they don’t ignore proper credit, they just go for stolen valor.
