Ramaswamy has produced an attack ad weaponizing the rape of his opponent, Amy Acton, when she was 12 years old. It features Acton’s mother, who abandoned Acton after she was raped by her step-father, fleeing the state with her husband. Here is the corporate money helping fund that ad.

Oregon after 2 days. The tallies (Friday & Monday) of mailed out ballots that have been RETURNED (Oregon is a vote by mail/drop box - only State: D voters 6084 / Independent 661 / Non-Affiliated 1665 / Republicans 3001.

In 77 years I’ve heard many buzzwords from the reactionary right (oops! that may be a buzzword in its own right): commie sympathizer, pinko, CRT, death panels, unAmerican, woke, “socialized medicine”…an endless list. What I never hear from that sector is WHAT they’re going to do to make lives better

Full circle, with a Geopolitical twist…. A common Ronald Reagan ‘joke’: The 9 most terrifying words in the English language: “I'm from the Government, & I'm here to help” Donald Trump Jan. 13, 2026: “Iranian Patriots, KEEP PROTESTING - HELP IS ON ITS WAY”

I live on the U.S. mainland, as far from Maine as possible. I hope that in Trumps final 2 years he’ll have a Senate that will negate his replacement of Alito or Thomas with a younger carbon copy. But! Platner should not be a part of that equation. Do better Maine Democrats! P.s. Bernie is not a (D)

Fact: Lee H. Oswald attempted to assassinate former Army Major General Edwin Walker 4/63 in Dallas - 7 months b4 the JFK assassination. Walker was an anti-communist, ultra-conservative (he’d be a Trumper today). Oswald saw Walker as a fascist. Oswald used the same Carcano rifle he later used on JFK

New screening question for DOJ prospects (or potential SCOTUS nominees): Which is worse in the eyes of the Law: a) hollering “Hang Mike Pence” outside the U.S. Capitol or b.) posting a picture of seashells seen on a beach walk that read “8647”? Hint: one the above will garner a Presidential Pardon

Ceasefire warms the belly of Dow dummies… But I gotta ask: who amongst the clarity of thought sector (i.e. those who ‘get it’) would rely on: a.) Trump b.) the Iranian Government or c.) Pete Hegseth - as a basis for their Financial/Future/Investment decisions? Up for a Game of “Spot The Looney”

The reality TV audience (me included) 'luvs' a cliffhanger. I'm doubtful that Humanity (the World's population) feels the same when it come to real life. Trump's insane game-show approach to matters of life & death (i.e. Iran) are NOT clever. They are repugnant & reveal that he is a very sick man

The talking points from the Trump-Vance-Noem Axis of Evil: "She was a radical zealot who committed domestic terrorism" She was an “agitator” and part of a broader .... network. As a "domestic terrorist" her death was "of her own making." Renee Good or Ashley Babbitt?

John Kelly's 2020 words about Trump bear themselves out, as true, every day: The depths of his dishonesty is just astounding to me. The dishonesty, the transactional nature of every relationship, though it’s more pathetic than anything else. He is the most flawed person I have ever met in my life

The only guaranteed way to achieve the goals of the loyal American #DoNotCave coalition is to reach a majority D Congress w a D Prez. None of that exists at present. It’s a shitty hand to be dealt, but the fact is Trump/Thune/Johnson are in positions of power. Voters can change that. But not today

I heard that “A statewide caravan” as part of the recall Gov. Kotek movement (from “counties across Oregon”) would meet Oct 18 at the Oregon State Capitol. 1958 (2nd Grade) I learned that Oregon has 36 Counties & I also ‘learnt’ me some ‘rithmetic. Sounds like about 3 people per county showed up.

Good article... it seems like Tyler Robinson was moving away from MAGA and disagreed with Kirk... ...but... a LOT of other evidence suggests that he was something that still fits into the right while also embracing trans rights. The Groyper thing. youtu.be/Wcw02sEslog?...

Photo shows a man whose ancestors were many decades away from having a say in what America is.

Stripping the Endangered Species Act of its current logical definition of “harm” flies in the face of biological principals. Habitat is critical to health and perpetuation of populations.

he’s finally earned his Doctorate of Traitorous Fuckery

Trump cursed Mahomes. Pass it on.

I’m way out here in the PNW…but my thoughts are in far away Pittsburgh this afternoon. After yesterday’s depraved rally in MSG, during which Puerto Rico was slandered, I’m left wondering: “WWRCD”? (What Would Roberto Clemente Do?).

No Nose Hold = Kamala Harris vote. In a bizarro-universe if I were forced to vote for Trump in order to, for example, rescue my loved ones from certain death, It Would Take take a world-class hold on the: Nose, Cerebellum, Anus, Olfactory system, and every other human faculty to carry it out.

You thought shelves were empty in April 2020 (Covid era)... Wait until you see what mass deportation leads to.

You can't make this up. Trump's bibles were made in China and he's selling them at a 1900% markup. apnews.com/article/trum...
