Rep Randy Fine (R-FL) says he's absolutely open to striking the citizenship of Melania Trump (née Knavs) and Elon Musk if it turns out they secured their green cards and passports through fraud, as at first blush seems apparent. www.the-independent.com/news/world/a...

One heck of a story about how oil companies face no consequences for their serious violations in Oklahoma. This Oil Company Is Linked to 1,000 Pollution Incidents and Other Violations. Oklahoma Never Punished It. @nickbowlin.bsky.social @readfrontier.bsky.social

691 words about Cheesecake. 434 words about rape.

There was a brand new allegation that the president raped a woman in the 1990s yesterday and it appears to not be on the NYT homepage at all right now

For the fabulously wealthy, paying taxes is pretty much optional. They can borrow against their vast wealth, which is mostly an untaxed capital gain, without paying taxes. When they die, the capital gain goes to zero. And loopholes exist to bypass the estate tax too.

You can do the same thing, buying a house and borrowing against it—ha ha, just kidding, normal people get taxed annually on their wealth via property taxes, the "you can't tax wealth, the economy will collapse!" rule applies solely to the super-rich.

YIKES! It seems @justinjpearson.bsky.social’s TN-9 opponent state senator Brent Taylor has a history of sending unsolicited nude pics to people who are not his wife. (No wonder Trump wants him in congress) www.nashvillescene.com/news/pithint...

POLITICO: ".. The documents show representatives from Google, OpenAI, Meta, Amazon Web Services and Nvidia were 'confirmed' to meet with Abbott’s team, joined by Texas’ head electricity regulator .. to discuss building out the state’s power grid." @politico.com www.politico.com/news/2026/10...

A good summary of the House Judiciary Dems' 50-p report on Trump's history as a violent sexual predator, including a well vetted, under-oath account from Beatrice Keul of how Trump raped her in an Atlantic City hotel room in 1993, after the pair were introduced to one another by Jeffrey Epstein.

At this point, the case that Pete Hegseth is a Russian stooge is pretty strong. And there's no shortage of folks in upper echelons in the Pentagon who are persuaded of that, too.

MOTHER JONES: “THEY WENT TO JARED… Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner used his position to hop in bed with autocrats and sell out America.” And the Hunter Biden hunters are silent. @MarshaBlackburn www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

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

Julie K. Brown at the Miami Herald is still doing the heavy lifting on keeping the story alive. www.miamiherald.com/news/nation-...

One of the most important financial stories out there if you want to know how and why the same five evil guys wind up owning everything.

We need to get money out of politics. Let's start with Elon Musk. Full story in reply.

Kushner took a $50 mn bribe from the Emiratis to orchestrate the firing of Rex Tillerson as secretary of state, according to Matt Cole's new book, Princes and Thieves, out today. To be clear, this is a serious felony, if true.

Just going to leave this inspiring story right here…sweet dreams…

Georgia is one of the main states to watch for Republicans to redo their WI/NC playbook of using the lame duck session to entrench power after losing elections. New reporting on what they might do if they lose: www.ajc.com/politics/202...

We aren’t legacy media but we led the morning with this from @premthakker.bsky.social zeteo.com/p/donald-tru...

Neat how my retirement takes a hit every time finance bros don’t get their favorite fascist

So far, remarkably high turnout by young Black voters in Georgia. Eye-popping chart.

I know there's a lot going on but I feel it should probably be more of an above-the-fold story that members of Congress released a thoroughly documented report directly accusing the president of the United States of being a serial rapist.

The Trump administration's $25bn Polar LNG project on Alaska's North Slope will be turned over to a Kremlin proxy, the Financial Times and New York Times report, quoting former Exxon executives. For Alaska voters, this is the big October surprise as they head for the polls.

it feels truly insane that it’s not

Beatrice Keul, testified that she was introduced by Jeffrey Epstein to Donald J Trump, who then brutally raped her in a hotel room in Atlantic City, NJ, and her claims were deemed credible by a panel of the House Judiciary Committee today. The NYT has decided that this is not reportable news.

Huge headlines around the world. In major US media, unreported. Something's fishy here.

House Dems Report: “A growing body of evidence demonstrates Trump was an active participant in Epstein’s sexual abuse of young women during the 1990s. The DOJ & FBI are doing everything they can to keep the 🇺🇸 people in the dark about it.” The report: democrats-judiciary.house.gov/sites/evo-su...

“covert surveillance inside houses of worship… “interrogations of churches’ staff… “ICE agents hauled off a nun who was wearing her habit and walking down the sidewalk en route to Sunday Mass… “suing a Catholic diocese in New Mexico to seize 14 acres of their land…” www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

Ding ding fucking ding.

Dictator Move of the Day.

“These re-interviews are consequential,” a leaked email seen by 404 Media reads.

60 people have now died in ICE custody since Trump's return to office. Our country is set to spend $268 BILLION on mass deportations and detentions through the end of Trump's term. Instead of death and cruelty, imagine what we could have invested that money in instead?

🚨 A bombshell new House Judiciary Democrats report details allegations from 11 women linking Trump to Jeffrey Epstein, including five who accuse Trump of sexual assault. The report also alleges a sweeping DOJ cover-up. We broke down the explosive findings.

this might rank as one of the most important outcomes of the night if it happens. would give dems the ability to begin to make north carolina a democracy

Beyond disgusted by even more rape allegations against the President of the United States. "In total, more than 25 different women...have independently accused Donald Trump of rape, sexual assault, or other sexual misconduct." Report w/ new details: democrats-judiciary.house.gov/sites/evo-su...

Even though these are national and global layoffs, one should read its timing as Microsoft’s effort to stop WA’s millionaires tax, as right-wingers will blame that tax for these layoffs despite there being no actual connection.

No you see AI won’t replace jobs it will simply make the jobs easier

@marcelias.bsky.social : “Mr. Blanche... we have beaten you and your team in court like a drum. So I hope you don't do what you are threatening or insinuating you might do. But if you do, I will see you in those courtrooms. I will win. And then I will dance on your head for those victories.”

A report released Monday by Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee on President Donald Trump's ties to Jeffrey Epstein included new details from a young Swiss woman raped by Trump in an Atlantic City hotel room in 1993, whose meeting was arranged by Jeffrey Epstein. time.com/article/2026...
