dude, you got yourself kicked out of two boarding schools, your Harvard application is rumored to have consisted of two words - "Harvard" and "Kennedy" -, your peers there say you were a dealer in college, your roommate reportedly wrote your senior thesis for you, and you failed the NY bar twice

I don’t think we should get used to a man this wealthy, this full of hate and this willing to demonize a small minority having so much power in our economy and in our politics. To defend democracy, we must defeat the oligarchs.

Here's the excerpt I think @kyledcheney.bsky.social meant to append:

The editorial board said using a survivor’s abuse against them crosses a line that should matter to every Ohioan, regardless of party. “We are better than this. We have a responsibility to show it.”

Kind of funny, in an Ancient Greek Hell kind of way, that this guy handed Trump the presidency in 2016, and as a reward Trump is kicking him in the teeth forever. www.nbcnews.com/politics/jus...

“The nonprofit that helped get Cornel West on presidential ballots in 2024 received all of its funding that year through a conservative political network that has been bankrolled by Elon Musk, tax records reviewed by Sludge show.” readsludge.com/2026/10/26/m...

Two former Governors of South Carolina - one from each party - have endorsed Democrat Annie Andrews who is running against Sen. Darline Graham R-SC

interesting

I’m sure this won’t incentivize the absolute worst people in the world to harass their neighbors by calling the fucking gestapo

*MICROSOFT TO OFFER BUYOUTS TO 60,000 WORKERS IN LATEST COST CUT 27% of its workforce!!!!!

If Brazil can reject Trump, the Broligarchs and right-wing authoritarianism, so can we.

Reuters: TRUMP ADMINISTRATION'S FIRING OF PROSECUTOR MAURENE COMEY WAS UNLAWFUL, JUDGE RULES

Judge Furman rules that Maureen Comey's firing violated separation of powers. Orders backpay. Govt's arguments violate 2 centuries of SCOTUS rulings & would "unsettle the equilibrium established by this Nation's constitutional system." storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

From Zelenskyy. Patriot interceptors that could save innocent lives are sitting in European countries for weeks, which they paid for, unable to be transferred to Ukraine because Hegseth refuses to sign off.

Sen. Sanders: I have a suggestion for Trump. Instead of lying and throwing hatred against Abdul and his family, why don't you explain to the American people why you threw 15 million Americans off their healthcare to give $1 trillion in tax breaks to the 1%?

David Jolly: "The problem in this environment is not that I used to be a Republican. It's that Byron Donalds still is one."

Right-aligned pollsters have now released 81 polls into the Senate battlegrounds since Sept 10th. Given all the issues we've had with fake/manipulated polling would assume there would be more interest in learning about what this is. For this stuff is to polling what Fox News is to news. 1/

President Obama Is Freakin Right...

EL-SAYED: I get that the President takes personal offense to my first name. He doesn't mind as much when it's the Saudis who are funding his son-in-law's private equity. Doesn't seem to mind as much when it's the Qataris who are giving them a $400 million private jet…

Lula: "We had to overcome foreign interference through digital platforms, which we will have to regulate. A crime in the digital world must be treated the same as a crime in the real world. We cannot have monstrous companies earning millions... not paying taxes... wanting to steer elections."

Jesse Ventura: “If Donald Trump would have gone in the military, he would have been the guy that wet his bed, cried for his mom, went hysterical, and would be carted out in the middle of the night. The man’s a coward. He’s a bully. All bullies are cowards. That’s why they’re bullies”

what a night

Wow

Lula winning is great for the planet, great for Brazil, and great for people who aren't revanchist assholes everywhere in the world, but let's not forget that it's also going to make some of the worst people on Earth extremely sad and mad. We should enjoy that, as a little treat.

Lula has been reelected president, Brazilian media has now called. An extraordinary comeback for the left-wing politician who trailed by 2 points in round 1 but managed to hold off Flávio Bolsonaro, the former president's son.

Weird how this keeps happening

NEW: Plaintiffs suing to halt Trump closure & renaming of Kennedy Center submit court filing arguing Team Trump is shielding 100s of records showing "Trump’s ongoing, direct management of the Kennedy Center", including Kennedy Ctr staff messages to Natalie Harp & Howard Lutnick

We all knew who Blanche was— he covered up the Epstein files. Republican Senators confirmed him anyway. The corruption of our Justice Department is on them.

Obama: "The one thing that the current president is focused on other than home improvements is enriching himself ... we've got a US ambassador shaking down a donor to pay off her credit card bills. We learned a Venezuelan billionaire wanted a pardon so he paid one of Trump's lawyers $50 million"

OBAMA: When I was president, all these Republicans are all deficits, deficits, debt, debt. You got to do something about it. And now—$40 trillion—Crickets. Somehow deficits only matter when a Democratic president is in office

“He’s got the White House looking like Saddam Hussein opened up a Cheesecake Factory” — Obama

The question is: Why did Trump derail peace talks?

Trump has made more stock trades in his second term than all 535 members of Congress combined.

HOLY SHIT. In a sworn statement yesterday, an ICE agent told a federal judge that an ICE flight to Equatorial Guinea had been cancelled and so couldn't be used to bring Ahmed Soliman back to the United States. The plane just landed in Equatorial Guinea. prospect.org/2026/10/23/t...

🚨BREAKING: Shortly after the Department of Justice (DOJ) sued Alaska to preemptively challenge the results of the state’s U.S. Senate race if the Republican loses, President Donald Trump said he ordered the dangerous lawsuit. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

This has been one of the strangest weeks yet for Trump's health. At rally after rally, he blurted out random noises and seemed visibly confused. Now, he just posted this cryptic message:

😳 WOMAN REPORTER: Do sexual abuse allegations mean nothing to you, sir? TRUMP: Wait. Wait! Wait wait wait. Slow down. Who are you with? REPORTER: NBC, sir. But they are very serious sex abuse allegations TRUMP: Quiet! Isn't she a fresh person? You're a horrible little reporter, aren't you?

NEW AD: Have you seen these anti-Talarico attack ads? Elon Musk paid for nearly all of them. The world's first trillionaire knows if he drags the most corrupt politician in Texas across the finish line, Ken Paxton will owe him everything. Elon Musk: Texas is not for sale.

I don’t think he’s actually going to do this but the weird hovering around the city is weirding me out, for sure. You wonder if Miller has talked himself into the thing they always tell themselves: “We lost last time because we didn’t hit hard enough, we just need to try again and be tougher”

We are seeing a hunger disaster unrolling before our eyes. Since Republicans passed the Big Beautiful Bill, 2 million kids have lost food assistance. These are by far the deepest SNAP cuts in history, and each month, we find out it’s even worse than we thought. The worst is yet to come.

Why is Elon so desperate to stop Democrats from wining power? He told us in 2024. He fears they will put him in jail. What crimes has Musk committed? We do not know. But Musk does. He has spent $500 million to stop Democrats in this election. Will he also commit crimes to steal election?!

it's always the ones you most suspect (stay for the end)

Anyway they don’t want these dogs for war they want to set them on protesters I hope this helps

wait a democrat is polling +3 in montana’s congressional race and he is a smokejumper that looks like this? why has no one told the thirsty masses?
