Damning new report from @democrats-judiciary.house.gov that details how Trump may have been a co-conspirator in Jeffrey Epstein’s conspiracy to traffic and abuse young women in the 1990s, including five women who directly accuse Trump of rape or sexual assault in Epstein’s close company or presence.
President Donald Trump suggested Saturday that he would brush off Georgia's requests for federal help if Sen. Jon Ossoff (D-GA) wins reelection, then conceded he probably shouldn't have said so.
Pundits are saying that Latin America is destined to have a conservative wave. In a momentous election, the Brazilians have proved those pundits wrong. Congratulations Lula and congratulations Brazil!
🟡 SCOOP: Elon Musk makes $1 billion investment in Ellison’s Skydance, providing a much-needed financial injection as the company looks to cut costs and bolster its stock price.

With the election looming, the GOP is calling in the big guns. Which means having a megachurch freak named Timmy dispatch an army of walleyed 23yo home-school casualties with YouTube diction to opposing candidates' rallies, where they will demand those candidates reject and denounce the WNBA.
Watch out: going out to eat at your favorite restaurant could become even more expensive.
The Trump administration might approve a merger between Sysco and Restaurant Depot — threatening higher supply costs for small businesses and higher prices for you.
My heart is so full.
Thank y’all for coming to see me and Senator @sanders.senate.gov today.
I can’t wait to be your Senator come November.

Unacceptable. Meta took down the No Kings Instagram today and kept it offline for well over an hour.
Censoring free speech to appease Donald Trump?
We the people deserve answers, but regardless, we will not be silenced.
a lot of people get very little political news or political news only from very biased right wing sources
most Americans can't even name their senators
if nobody's screaming about impeachment tens of millions of folks really assume nothing is wrong
Israeli settlers attacked a Jewish American journalist in broad daylight, and Israeli soldiers did nothing. She said from her hospital bed, "Sadly, none of them will be prosecuted. I am sure of it.” @premthakker.bsky.social asks, "Are we going to let her be right?"
I have reached the limits of my ability to put words to pure evil.
Once again, Israel burned another family in Gaza alive. But the image of the four-year-old daughter in the family watching the rest of her family die in the flames will haunt me for the rest of my life.
But will it haunt Israel?
This is a fascist nightmare.
Politicized law enforcement and deliberate targeting of an elected official who has been critical of the regime.
Everyone involved needs to be identified and prosecuted. Trump needs to be impeached and removed from office and put on trial for his various crimes.
And yet, every single Democratic member of Congress and every progressive organization (except @indivisible.org) still uses X as their primary method of breaking news.
The pro-democracy movement really needs to boycott X.
Musk has funneled more than $276 million into Republican groups and his PAC since July, building a huge turnout operation for the midterms. “The staggering amount of money makes Mr. Musk, the richest person in the world, by far the largest known donor in the midterms”

According to a new NYT investigation, at least 44 governors, 70 US senators, and 185 House members have faced violent threats over the past two years. Their staff and families as well. A key source of this danger is Donald Trump, as I documented earlier this year. www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
THIS IS AN ABSOLUTE FUCKING FIVE ALARM FIRE. The President is weaponizing DOJ to go after an opposition leader. It's a massive completely unjustified abuse of power by his secret police to shut down dissent and we won't stand for it. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/12/u...
The raid on @ilhanmn.bsky.social / @repilhan.bsky.social's home today is a clear abuse of power.
Trump and his MAGA loyalists will stop at nothing to try to intimidate critics.
Relative got a $500 check from US Treasury and a shocking letter full of lies signed by Trump and ending with "May God bless you". Basically a pre-electoral bribe. News reports say they're sending almost a million of these. Full text in alt below. (I told him to cash it quick before it bounces.)
The Army announced last year that it had enough of a model of armored vehicle and that any more deliveries would be “excess.” But Congress found a way to keep funding alive for the vehicle, and executives at the company found a way to flood key members of Congress with donations. buff.ly/nbAEUVa
If you're in these states, *TODAY* is deadline to register to vote.

Even if you think you've registered: doesn't hurt to check!
And there's a lot happening across them. A thread with stakes on each. ⬇️
We know that Trump will replace Hegseth with someone who will continue the mass murders.
Trump is the responsible party here. He could have stopped this bloodshed long ago.
The president must be impeached and removed for this. There is no other way.
@congressmanraja.bsky.social
I've called for Pete Hegseth's resignation because he has shown he is completely incompetent, and his political purge of military leadership is making our country less secure.
I believe the votes to impeach him may already be there.
I don’t trust the mainstream media, but I feel like the primary alternate model, getting the news from the posts of a 14 year-old Romanian schizophrenic shitposter named “G00n3R the Swamp Pervert,” is not necessarily a superior alternative.
Breaking: The Texas Tribune has identified the ICE agent who witnesses say fired through an open van window and killed 52-year-old Lorenzo Salgado Araujo in Houston nearly three months ago.
BREAKING: Israel snatched an American teen from his West Bank home in the middle of the night — just days before his birthday and during his critical national exams.
He's now been held for 3 months, with no charges.
Netanyahu just came to the US for the *eighth* time since Trump took office.
Today, Marist's midnight poll drop is from Ohio:
Sherrod Brown leads Sen. Husted 51% to 43%.
Amy Acton leads Vivek Ramaswamy 50% to 44%.
A key stat: 50% *strongly disapprove* of Trump, in Ohio. maristpoll.marist.edu/polls/midter...
Trump is selling nuclear tech to Saudi Arabia despite reported US intelligence that the Saudis still want a bomb—while the Trumps have taken billions in bribes from the Saudis. This is Trump corruption at the expense of US national security. Stop the deal.
HATCH ACT VIOLATION: We filed another complaint alleging that Trump's second TV ad violated the Hatch Act by using government funds for political propaganda.
This is an illegal misuse of our taxpayer dollars. Trump must be stopped.
Talking about my struggles with being overweight still makes me uncomfortable, since weight can carry moral judgment in ways that other health challenges don't.
But that fear stops too many struggling from getting treatment that could extend their lives.
