This report is genuinely overwhelming, in terms of the evidence both against Trump and of a ham-fisted cover-up. Including one instance in which Ghislaine Maxwell was actually about to mention one of Trump's young accusers and Todd Blanche told her to stop talking. The media response is "yawn."

I know there's a lot going on but I feel it should probably be more of an above-the-fold story that members of Congress released a thoroughly documented report directly accusing the president of the United States of being a serial rapist.

This is a pro-solar PAC that is strategically spending to take out vocal opponents of clean energy. They are racking up quite the record. Their CEO will be on Volts this week.

Hundreds of thousands of children were literally killed due to Elon Musk’s actions. Yet you will still see people treating him like just any public figure, buying Teslas, etc. The world is a dark place. Especially the parts that treat the rich as inherently more valuable than everyone else.

Stephen Miller claims Somali-Americans in Minnesota are "buying Mercedes, buying BMWs, they buy a nice house, all their kids fly first class all over the world" (This is a lie!)

You know, Elon, if you just paid your taxes, we could give those kids food and healthcare, things far more valuable than stock in a government-welfare-dependent company that is bound to go bankrupt eventually.

People are starting to get antsy about wanting to go back to Twitter, and here’s the thing about doing good ethical things that most other people aren’t doing: you have to keep doing them, to keep being ethical.

“Raises question”? We need use better terms to characterize inscrutable business models propped up only by ego & bluster that targets axe-body spray retail investors chasing the big win.

In early 2025, I assumed the Trump regime would delete the Department of Justice’s press releases and other statements related to more than 1,000 Jan. 6 cases. So I downloaded them. We’ve now made them available to the public with a search tool. They can’t erase history. jan6memoryproject.org

Under-appreciated thing about younger candidates (and yes, younger is relative when Congress is world's most powerful assisted living facility) is that they have more energy. And when they're other than standard white dude, they've likely had to exert it toward excelling.

Trump should stick to talking about Capone. Russia refining capacity is down about 50% since the start of the war. That would be gasoline, jet fuel and diesel. In the first eight months of 2026, a Russian refinery was hit on average once every three days.

How about artificial human growth hormones and muscle mass?

At a time when the most influential leaders of the U.S. need to stand up loudly and clearly for the rule of law, they are leading the charge in the opposite direction. But not Jack Smith. Kudos to him for continuing to be a much needed voice of clarity.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Jack Smith: "History teaches that the rule of law is rarely destroyed all at once. It's often weakened by attacks on the institutions and the public servants sworn to uphold it. Since January 2025, we have witnessed precisely such an effort."

I would like to see more men talking about how to and peer pressuring each other into calling out misogyny and rape culture. Going against social norms is hard, and it helps to share tips and support.
