Where’s Pete Townsend when you need him?

Kushner deploys an army of lawyers to stop publication of Matthew Cole’s book, “Princes & Thieves,” which reveals treasonous levels of corruption, including a billion-dollar slush fund from Middle Eastern govternments to manipulate U.S. foreign policy. @nataliekorach.bsky.social reports:

Our taxpayer dollars have funded this white supremacist trillionaire who is using his winnings—some half a billion dollars—to try and shove Republican candidates down our throats and avoid investigation and prosecution. www.americaamerica.news/p/how-long-c...

Obama: "You got the defense sec who is like a laser focused on important matters like the jawline & testosterone level of our troops, and livestreaming executions because that's how he thinks you cultivate that manly warrior spirit. How much time do you think this man spends in front of the mirror?"

“A small handful of billionaires now own virtually every major media company, news outlet, and social media platform and are demonstrating how this unchecked concentration over our news and media threatens democratic discourse.”

First Orban and now Vucic conceded electoral defeat, de facto turning out to be more committed to democracy than Trump and lots of his followers.

This is one of the most holy sh*t stories I’ve ever read in my life. www.vanityfair.com/story/jared-...

The fact that the president's doctors are giving him the dementia test over and over again -- tracking his decline, most likely -- and that the president keeps bragging about having to take that test should be a five-alarm fire.

Looking for Peltola to beat the aggregate Dans to shut down the DC meddling.

Elon Musk has spent over $180 million on the Texas senate race. “There is something deeply wrong with a political system that allows one trillionaire to buy his own personal U.S. Senator,” James Talarico said. www.americaamerica.news/p/how-long-c...

MASSIVE Protests in Tel Aviv AGAINST Netanyahu. So based on the way Dems who speak out against Israel’s policies here are labeled as antisemitic, are Jewish people living in Israel who don’t support Netanyahu antisemitic?

Bolsonaro-friendly mayors appear to be sabotaging public transport on Election Day. Buses aren’t running in Lula-friendly areas, flights and ferries mysteriously canceled. Traffic lights have gone out and people’s power cut in Salvador, indigenous people’s travel restricted

This seems like a big deal

Today marks the deadliest mass shooting in Maine’s history. In 2023, a gunman armed with a Ruger AR-10 rifle and high-capacity magazines opened fire in a bowling alley and a bar in Lewiston. Eighteen people were killed, including four deaf people, and 13 others were wounded.

US Energy Secretary Chris Wright says investors could buy idle sanctioned tankers and return them to legal trade. That fleet funds Russia's war. euromaidanpress.com/2026/10/22/f...

Trump and Todd Blanche are far more sympathetic to Epstein and Maxwell than to the survivors of their abuse. And now Vivek — followed byTrump and Vance — embraces the enabler of abuse and attacks the survivor. MAGA: Making Abuse Great Again.

Mrs. Miller complains that Dems want to [checks her highlighted passage] prosecute those who committed federal crimes

* March 2025: FBI agents pulled from child exploitation cases to flag Trump. * May: Bondi briefs Trump. * July: DOJ closes Epstein matter. * August: Trump’s name confirmed redacted. * Oct. 2026: Emails reportedly reveal White House edited DOJ memo.

In 2020, Jared Kushner was senior advisor to the president of the United States, a full-time employee of the United States government, and was subject to numerous disclosure requirements and ethical restrictions under the Ethics in Government Act of 1978.

We better hear about this 10x as much as we heard about Hunter Biden's stupid laptop.

Protestors have gathered at the Alex Pretti Memorial for tonight's march demanding justice for all victims of police and ICE violence.

Okay but giraffes are really hard. Only genius-level people like our president can spot a giraffe

A man has been charged with threatening an Australian lawmaker’s staff with nunchucks days after another legislator was critically injured when a man repeatedly hit her with a car.

I said that this was a Russian trope at the time in testimony to Congress and am glad to see this excellent documentation of Russia’s use of Vance’s vocal chords.

Two weeks ago, @jimacosta.bsky.social broke the story about DHS potentially using a military-grade “heat ray.” I joined him to discuss the risks. Today, CNN reports the Pentagon authorized DHS to test it. Having worked at DHS and the Pentagon, I find this horrific and deeply concerning.

Every bit of this 👇

988,000 people bought into Trump’s crypto scam. Maybe start there.

Glad to see CNN reporting on this. @jimacosta.bsky.social and I raised concerns about DHS potentially using a military-grade “heat ray.” After 20+ years in national security, I find this deeply troubling. A weapon designed to inflict intense pain. Against civilians? Why does DHS need this?

Not ideal when you can crack open the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders and find that every member of the administration is in there somewhere.

Ukraine was winning the war, so Trump kneecapped Ukraine to help Russia. I wish it weren’t that simple, but it is. Our president is in bed with our enemies.

☠️☠️☠️ In exclusive interviews with MS NOW, military family members said that after a hasty and traumatic evacuation from Naval Support Activity Bahrain in March, they have been living out of hotels and short-term rentals and face running out of money. www.ms.now/news/militar...

I know I use the word “traitor” a lot, and it feels inadequate to describe what Hegseth has done. He is an abomination.

Adjusted for inflation, this is ten times the value of Fall's bribe in the Teapot Dome scandal.

the routine, pay for play pardons are all by themselves one of the worst corruption scandals in american history!

Girls! Stop fighting. You're both pretty..

Russia has resumed diesel exports to Türkiye and Brazil after Trump lifted sanctions on Russian fuel supplies, Reuters reports. The deal gives Moscow another source of revenue to sustain its war against Ukraine, even as Russia continues to face domestic fuel shortages. buff.ly/yOqgLH7

If you think a test for dementia is an IQ test, you have dementia. If you don't realize you have been given a test for dementia because your physician suspects you have dementia, you have dementia. If you think being able to tell a giraffe from a whale makes you a genius . . . you have dementia.

My brain cannot process this level of corruption. She was being paid $50 million to engineer a pardon from Trump *while working at the Justice Department* as a "Special Government Employee." And it worked. He got the pardon, and she got the money. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/20/u...

Republican Senator Thom Tillis: “Putin is playing President Trump like a fiddle. And history is not going to look good on an America that failed to rise up and defend the Western world.”

Are hallucinations a stage of dementia? Asking for an enemy...

We are sensing a pattern

“Trump and Putin have teamed up to murder Ukrainians” is a better headline. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

As far as I know, Trump hasn’t had a single comment or post offering condolences to our Canadian friends after the tragic incident at a military base in Alberta. Such a runt of man. We can do so much better. VOTE Blue.

If this is accurate, Elon lied about not having control over Starshield, and he lied about the administration making the decision. More importantly, why is a private citizen even *able* to make decisions that could hinder US military operations?
