“We’re making a freaking fortune.” Not families paying 40% more for gas. Not truckers paying $6.28 for diesel. Not parents worried about keeping the lights on. Big Oil is making a fortune. You’re paying for it. And Trump doesn’t give a damn. His words.

This is what Trump said about high gas prices. He couldn't care less.

Our staff has a clause in our union contract to prevent interference in endorsements, and allowing the business side of the paper to interfere with editorial direction is a big ethical no-no in our profession that would’ve led several of us to resign in protest.

Q: Polls show government corruption has shot to the top in concerns this election. Why do you think that is? Trump: Corruption is one of the biggest things. Q: There have also been some allegations— Trump: Jeffrey Epstein is all Democrat corruption.

Trump: "I'm studying his body. I've never studied the body of a man before. It's not my thing. Nothing wrong with it, of course. But it's never been my thing. But I looked at his ass. I said, 'His ass, shit, it's like a pile of muscle.' Then I looked at his legs and I said, 'Man, his feet are big.'"

I don’t understand why farmers need an endless series of welfare payments from the rest of us since Trump took office. Aren’t his policies working for you? You need us to pay you so you will keep voting for the guy who is failing you? Don’t you believe in free market capitalism?

Most billionaire wealth isn't in yachts or jewelry — that's just a few percent of it. Most is productive business capital: companies that employ people, build things, and fund research. Tax that wealth and you're taxing the businesses that employ us all. Cato's Adam Michel explains.

Man, Andrew Feinberg can eat a bag of rat penises. Comparing the current shitshow to the economic boom Biden had teed up (with inflation back under control) is some ridiculous bullshit.

Look at the shabby state and increasingly authoritarian trajectory of the country and ask yourself if we can endure 2 more years of a lawless Trump administration wreaking havoc with no check from Congress, then vote accordingly. This is not the time for a protest vote or purity politics.

As ballots arrive this week, I would like to remind my fellow Washingtonians to please use a drop box if you can, and get it done early. Yes, very few of our races are all that competitive, but we have some critical ballot measures.

You’re claiming to defend the Bill of Rights while demanding that the government ban an entire religion. The irony is staggering. The First Amendment protects Muslims, Christians, atheists and everyone else. Religious freedom isn't reserved for people who share your beliefs.

My latest @npr.org story: If you have to use the U.S. Postal Service to return a mail-in ballot, USPS recommends mailing it at least a week before your state's deadline. And if you're mailing close to Election Day, stop by a post office to ask for a postmark to make sure it gets one on the same day
