The Ramaswamy ad has pushed the largest newspaper in Ohio, the Cleveland Plain Dealer, to reverse its position on endorsements. "A candidate who uses childhood sexual abuse as a weapon against the person who endured it has crossed a line that Ohioans should defend, whatever their party."

When I heard that protester in Mississippi told that man to "shove that ballroom up your fat ass!" I felt that in my soul.

A trust owned by Texas AG Ken Paxton and his wife, state Sen. Angela Paxton, invested in a company led by a convicted fraudster. The firm and its affiliates later sent the trust 15 payments totaling $83K before and during the AG’s impeachment trial. w/ @texastribune.org

propublica.orgKen Paxton’s Trust Gave a $600,000 Infusion to a Convicted Fraudster’s CompanyThe blind trust’s investment in Wildcatter offers a new, unreported look at the attorney general’s financial ties with the very type of business executives whose prosecutions he typically celebrates.

If still debating whether Donald Trump or Elon Musk willfully crippled Ukraine's missile defense, helping to slay innocent civilians, you are a rube. If the U.S. President had no role, then an oligarch governs national security. If not, the U.S. President serves Russia. Both answers are mortifying.

Absolutely disgusting, but what can we expect from an adjudicated rapist and a congenital liar?

Q: Amy Acton's stepfather was indicted for rape. Now that you know all that, sir, do you change your mind about the ad? Trump: No. I don't care

OBAMA: "Trump is focused on enriching himself & his family/friends. A Venezuelan billionaire wanted a pardon, so he paid a Trump lawyers $50 million — and lo & behold! The pardon falls out of the sky... We’ve never seen a president straight-up grifting on your dime like this."

TikTok investor Jeff Yass avoided paying $1 billion in taxes while largely escaping public scrutiny. He then poured that money into campaigns to cut taxes and support election deniers. From the ProPublica archives:

Whether the explanation is screen calibration or something else, encouraging people to double-check their ballots is common sense. Review your selections, check the paper record, and alert a poll worker if anything looks wrong before casting your ballot. Why would anyone be against that?

OHIO GUV: Republican Vivek Ramaswamy is airing a disgusting ad featuring Amy Acton’s estranged mother who stayed with her second husband after he was indicted for sexually abusing young Amy. Trump immediately defended the mother.

Good thing Amy Acton's rapist stepfather is dead because he'd be speaking at the next trump rally in Ohio.

🚨 WOW! Brett Meiselas absolutely RIPS into Trump: "This is someone impeached for an extortion scheme. And now he's extorting the American people." "He is a PREDATOR. He is now being a predator against the American people."

Acyn@acyn.bsky.social

Brett Meiselas: This is why you don’t put a criminal into office in the first place. This is why we arrest criminals. This is why they go to prison, so that they can’t commit more crimes. Instead, we put a fraudster into office. What do you think he’s going to do? He’s going to commit fraud.

When asked about Vivek’s ad against Amy Acton, Vance says he is “disgusted.” Not disgusted by the ad, but disgusted by Republicans who objected to the ad. bsky.app/profile/atru...

WOW -- Vance *defends* Vivek's reprehensible ad 👇 Q: Ramaswamy's campaign put out a controversial ad featuring his opponent's mother. Some Republicans are backing away. Do you think it was appropriate? JD VANCE: Well, I'll be honest. Whether the ad was appropriate or not is not really my concern.

even by normal oppo standards this story is bonkers — basically vivek and co (and acton’s shitty mother) are accusing acton of fabricating horrific stories of child sexual abuse that are clearly documented in court records

This was slimy Vivek telling a Republican voter before the Iowa caucus how she needed to vote for him because that was the only way to save Trump’s life.

Tons of my patients have answered this SCREENING correctly. The ones who couldn’t got referred for thorough evaluations.

Trump: "The first question is easy. You have a lion, a snake, a bear, and a giraffe. And they say, 'which is the giraffe?' So that's always the question they show ... when they get into those last questions -- see the fake news? There's not a person there that could answer."

New Yorkers have waited their entire lives for tonight: when the Knicks championship banner will be raised into the rafters of Madison Square Garden. What a testament to the incredible 2025-26 Knicks and the city that stood alongside them every step of the way. LGK.

The candidate with the atypical name who is without American values and decency and who should lose his citizenship is Vivek Ramaswamy - a pile of feces with hair gel

Apparently someone used the term shylock last night in a blatantly anti-Semitic way at a political rally but the ADL doesn’t want to say who it was. For some reason.
