Gratified to see widely respected journalist Margaret Sullivan endorse my view that major media must depict Trump’s abuse of power as a “five-alarm fire” – because it is.

Two headlines in the last 24 hours: New York Times: "The New Worst-Case Scenario for Election Officials: Federal Interference" Me: "Republicans have cheated in elections for a long time"

FLASHBACK — Republican Paul Weyrich (co-founder of the Heritage Foundation & ALEC): “I don’t want everybody to vote… our leverage in elections goes up as the voting populace goes down.” They’ve been saying it out loud for years. Please vote. 🗳️ 🇺🇸

If only there were a Nobel Prize for heckling

Exactly! #Pinks #USDemocracy

This week’s installment of my Stop the Presses newsletter recalls the Republicans’ history of cheating in elections. They’ve often gotten away with it. Let’s make sure cheaters don’t prosper this time.

Rep. Jamie Raskin's staff went through Trump's pardons one by one and added up what convicted criminals no longer have to pay back. The total isn't in the millions. www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/trump-fire...

Bill Clinton: "I think Congress made a mistake not protesting turning the Rose Garden into what looks like the entrance to Liberace's bathroom"

The Nobel committee could do the funniest thing in the history of marriage.

FLORIDA VOTER ON FOX: “Everybody on my block is Republican. They told me for the first time they’re voting Blue, straight down.”

“The ass-man-in-chief says his fixation with Ohio’s second-ranking senatorial caboose is just a one-off.”

Bernie's Right.......

It's extremely clear at this point that Todd Blanche has opened this probe for one reason: to block or subvert the real criminal investigation now underway headed by Raúl Torres, the attorney general of New Mexico. The technical term for what Blanche is doing is perverting the course of justice.

The GOP wants you to think of Elon Musk as a victim, but the truth tells a very different story. He fired the people who were investigating him through DOGE and now it’s reported he gave the order to degrade the speed on Ukraine’s Starlink. That deserves investigation and Dems should deliver.

🧵🧵🧵 If you think Putin is a “humanitarian,” vote for Republicans. If you don’t, DON’T.

BREAKING: ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. (AP) — New Mexico sues Jeffrey Epstein's attorney and accountant, accusing them of concealing his sex trafficking operation.

That Vivek Ramaswamy ad drives home the point that Republican politicians think rape – even the rape of children – is no big deal. That disgusting ad is fully consistent with Republicans covering up the Epstein files.

Zelenskyy on Fox & Friends: "I always said we are open to negotiate in any format, any topics, but don't speak about us without us please"

The moment City Council gets it right and passed the ordinance calling for the removal of ICE and the National Guard out of Memphis!

Senator Elizabeth Warren Is Correct.......

He looks like he's running for governor of a Buc-ee’s

Trump’s envoy Steve Witkoff just told Putin he is a humanitarian. This is completely fucking insane.

Thieving Trump Will Pay Folks Who Turn In Fraudsters. We Know Of Many In Trump's Regime.......

🇺🇦 UKRAINE. WILL. SuRVIVE. #ONEV1 #Pinks 🌸 #Voices4Victory

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

The Republicans’ betrayal of Ukraine will leave a permanent stain on American history. It’s not just Trump — it’s the entire Republican Party bowing down to Putin. They could stop this if they wanted to.

“He's gunna go up to the Upper Peninsula and get a pretty cold welcome.” And the UP said…

Peak hypocrisy is when the guy who pardoned the Jan. 6 mob calls on France to get tough on its rioters.

Good for Talarico. As I said a few days ago, the Democrats need to run against Musk. Everyone with a brain knows that he’s the enemy.

Invasion, mass murder, rape, kidnapping of children - all fine

WATCH — @abdulelsayed.bsky.social to ABC: “An ally that takes your money to push you into wars you shouldn’t be fighting is not an ally… I think it’s time for us to realize Israel is not actually our friend.”

We are sensing a pattern

You have created a trump phrase "Thank you for your attention to my dementia"

In America, healthcare and education are treated as luxury goods, and the working class has been brainwashed into defending the very system keeping them broke and sick.

Fair Q

Hey Ambassador Huckabee A) Who attacked her? B) What country are they from? C) What army supports them? D) And with whose tax dollars? A: Israeli Terrorists B: Israel C: The IDF D: ours 🇺🇸 You’re welcome

Elon Musk has spent at least $366 million since July to boost Republicans ahead of the 2026 midterms. That’s just 0.0385% of his total net worth. Oligarchs can rig the system at the expense of everyone else, and only spend pennies doing so. We must get Big Money out of politics.

Newsom: "Trump is ruthless. I'm sorry -- we need to be a little more ruthless. And if you think I'm exaggerating, I woke up this morning & read Trump wants to arrest me. He said on Truth Social. He's not screwing around. He's trying to quite literally rig the election again today in the state of CA"
