this makes more sense when you learn the author has moved to NYC to now do her dumb podcast from there and is getting praise from ol hasan

this is only true if you woke up in 2024 and Trump 1 and the entire Republican Party across the last half century and more didn't exist but it's an excerpt from an interior designer and podcaster turned political commentator so this is the level of commentary we deserve I guess

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.

Same guy who said it's NEVER acceptable to use that word btw

“.. Musk and David Ellison’s father, Oracle founder Larry Ellison, have long been close, and it is in part the elder Ellison’s money — and connections — that made Paramount’s takeover of Warner Bros. possible.” @semafor.com $SKYD www.semafor.com/article/10/2...

Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine is calling for Vivek Ramaswamy, the Republican he endorsed to succeed him as governor, to stop airing an ad that features the estranged mother of Ramaswamy’s Democratic opponent, Amy Acton.

BRENNAN: Nidal Hasan is in a wheelchair. Doesn't the administration risk livestreaming this and making him a martyr? Couldn't this be a risk to the homeland? MARKWAYNE MULLIN: No one has to watch it B: Well then why are you livestreaming it? MULLIN: The president is restoring American values

NEW: A private equity executive took a top Pentagon job last year. Then a consulting firm he’d kept ties to starting winning major defense contracts - including a no-bid, quarter-billion dollar deal to advise his office.

Kimberly Guilfoyle was preparing for her congressional hearing to become U.S. ambassador to Greece when she reached out to a Trump donor with an urgent request: She needed $100,000 that she said she owed American Express—in a way that wouldn't leave a paper trail.

I want new investment and good-paying jobs right here in South Carolina — but not at your expense. Darline Graham says data centers are a must. I say South Carolinians should come first. That’s why I launched DataCenterDarline.com today. See for yourself and follow the money.

Funny how Drop Site sent its book-length hit piece on Jackson supposedly selling out to AIPAC two hours after this thread. That won't stop those guys, though. Ryan Grim wants Jackson to lose so he can shove Graham Platner down everyone's throat for six years straight.

But Kamala Harris campaigning with Liz Cheney to prevent Trump 2.0 from ever happening was an unpardonable sin according to the very people backpedaling to excuse this shit.

For months, Florida GOP gubernatorial nominee Byron Donalds wanted anyone who would listen to know that he was endorsed by President Trump. That moment appears to be over.

“.. he was completely inaudible because a pool microphone was not there to capture his statements. .. ‘So maybe this is one example of it backfiring just a little bit,’ Newsmax anchor Bianca de la Garza said .. @thehill.com

If questioned whether the DSA is a danger to the Democratic Party, any room for doubt was erased by the organization's choice to platform Hasan Piker while he's actively dragging down our party's chances of winning crucial races, including the Michigan Senate race. This was free media for the GOP.

#FunFact: President Biden & VP Harris banned the sale of these bombs. Trump reversed that policy the moment he took office.

Your regular reminder: If the Russians stop fighting, the war ends. If the Ukrainians stop fighting, their land will be occupied, their leaders will be killed, their history and language will be erased, their children will be kidnapped to serve Russia.

For the first time in their lives the Trumps actually have decent positive cash flow. And yet they're still on the Moscow dole. 🤔🤔 www.nytimes.com/2026/09/14/u...

Look at this photo we found from Donald Trump Jr.’s lavish Bahamas wedding. Can you spot the Russian oligarch close to Putin who bankrolled the event? 🧵

Democrats are not advocating for a Jim Crow-like set of policies against trans people! It is not real! This is a delusion you have absorbed from the internet.

BREAKING: Prosecutor Joe diGenova, who led the “grand conspiracy” probe of Trump targets, resigns without charging anyone.

Here is a guest on Tucker Carlson’s podcast saying that algebra is a conspiracy by the Jews to turn people into “good little goy slaves.” I wish I was joking.

The Trump admin is illegally using Social Security data to verify addresses for mail-in ballots, despite a court order telling them to stop. Social Security is charged with maintaining accurate earnings and benefits, NOT WITH KEEPING HOME ADDRESSES.

This is pretty fucking wild. I had assumed in a worst case scenario he would target blue zip codes and toss ballots based on technicalities but this is even worse than I imagined.

1. Keith Sonderling, Trump’s nominee for Labor Secretary, traveled to China in 2015 to pitch investments in a Florida real estate project. During these events, Chinese nationals were promised green cards and access to “America’s Comprehensive Welfare”

We told ya this would happen, @bradlander.bsky.social

When Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth polled top commanders in 2025 about cutting a program meant to protect civilians from harm during military operations, they all said it should be kept intact. Hegseth gutted the program anyway.
