A 2025 Nobel Prize winner in chemistry, Omar Yaghi is the son of Palestinian refugees who grew up in Jordan. He just left the US to move to China after raising concerns about rising anti-immigrant sentiment, like the kind shown here. donmoynihan.substack.com/p/china-than...

Beyond disgusted by even more rape allegations against the President of the United States. "In total, more than 25 different women...have independently accused Donald Trump of rape, sexual assault, or other sexual misconduct." Report w/ new details: democrats-judiciary.house.gov/sites/evo-su...

After the first round elections, Congressman André Janones created a WhatsApp channel titled “Lula’s Army.” It ballooned to 10 million people following his commands on how to behave online to counteract Meta’s far-right-favouring algorithms. The right knows how to use socials. We must learn, too.

I'm going to try to do this cleanly. Today's right wing governments are networked to each other. Those networks are well-documented. You can read about them in books. Following the elections in one node of that network is good practice for understanding the U.S. node.

"Nobody trying to stop billionaires from being taxed has proposed anything to save MLKCH or any other lifeline hospital serving millions of poor people." I think the discourse around Prop 40 has lost the point that if we don't pass it our community hospitals are totally and utterly fucked.

This is great news. But everyone needs to vote like pro democracy candidates are 10 points behind. Do not take your foot off the gas.

Holy moly…the apple doesn’t fall to far from the tree but Jared is really trying to one up his dad. Looking forward to the congressional subpoenas.

The tax wouldn’t impact any of their lives, in the slightest while helping millions. If they’d simply paid taxes in the first place, maybe we wouldn’t be here. Their greed is gross.

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.

British Adventurer Karl Bushby left Chile with the goal of walking an unbroken path back to his childhood home in England. Now, 28 years later, his Goliath Expedition is coming to a close. n.pr/4iwVaJ0

This week, NIH advisors rebuked RFK for harming #NIH and US science. Sheryl Gay Stolberg reported it. Then RFK posted calling her sources anonymous or corrupt. I'll say this hoping it does good: I'm an NIH scientist, I'm not anonymous, and RFK Jr is destroying NIH. More in attachment:

“Ms. Habba finalized her deal days after the company was registered, while she was still serving as U.S. attorney in New Jersey.” www.nytimes.com/2026/10/20/u...

🇺🇦❗️️A medical facility was hit in Kyiv for the second time (!) in a day! This time, a hospital in the Holosiivskyi district was hit by the attack, and in the morning there was an attack in the Solomyanskyi district.

Ted Cruz's former intern and organizer for the largest conservative youth summit in Texas has just confirmed he voted for James Talarico.

Once again, Trump is alone on a thought island. Putin started the war, putin could easily end the war. He doesn’t want to. Zelensky ONLY wants peace. #trumpisarussianasset

I saw the Musk documentary today. It's very compelling and made me even more angry at Elon, Trump, Ellison, and all the oligarchs trying to steal our country from us. We need to show them what democracy looks like.

Republicans giddily allowed President Bill Clinton’s assault weapons ban to expire in 2004. After which, mass shootings exploded. This is America.

Ukrainian strikes on Russian refineries had no impact on US diesel prices, ISW data shows. Diesel stayed below $4/gallon until the US–Israeli attack on Iran on Feb 28, then soared to $6.53 by Sep 21. #Trump nevertheless blamed Ukraine and demanded it halt refinery strikes.

NEW: Many Americans are struggling to afford basic necessities. 60% say they don't have enough income to lead the life they want, 53% say they don't have enough rainy day funds, and 27% say they can't pay all of their monthly bills in full. www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/...

Betting is ruining sports

‼️ Reuters: Many delegates left when Russian Finance Minister Anton Siluanov began speaking at the International Monetary and Financial Committee meeting in Bangkok. A European diplomat told Reuters: “The Ukraine war is existential for us in Europe. We cannot normalize relations with Russia.”

1,000 years from now, teachers will struggle to explain to their students how at this time in history, we found literally the most despicable human being in America and made him the most powerful person in the world

Russia is a terrorist state. #trumpisarussianasset

The Bicco Bike Bus is a large group bike designed to allow one adult driver to easily transport ten children with only pedal power. Used in the Netherlands to get to school, it is an original way to offer kids fun and exercise Original post

The reality is, all these fake MAGA tough guys from Trump on down are just whiny crybabies and perpetual victims.

The AFI Latin American Film Festival drew record attendance as diverse audiences gathered to celebrate culture and community through film.

In case you missed it.. And want a deep dive into dub deviance...I made this mix for @residentadvisor.bsky.social recently ... ra.co/podcast/1071 From Basic Channel to Burial, JK Flesh to Yabby You, Andy Stott to Ghost dubs, Techno Animal to K-Wata etc...

Andy Harris is the biggest Md embarrassment.

Just so you understand the scale of betrayal: first, our "partners" didn't warn Ukraine about the incoming ballistic missiles, so the air raid alert wasn't activated before impact, robbing people of their chance to survive. ​Then, Starlink was restricted to stop working at speeds above 100 mph.

Can we normalize on @bsky.app NOT retweeting 💩 from X? Be like @atrupar.com , post clips etc.

Blood on the GOP hands

The most corrupt and unethical president in US history by far.

Seven bipartisan US senators say Trump’s decision to allow Russian diesel imports runs directly counter to a 2022 law banning Russian energy imports. They say the administration failed to consult Congress or provide the explanation required by statute. #US

Navi Pillay — the 2026 Nobel Peace Prize laureate and a former International Criminal Court judge — happened to be at the Nuremberg Court in Germany when she learned that she had won the Nobel.

The MAGA regime recently killed the largest ancient 250 year old “Grandmother” Cottonwood tree in Arizona’s indigenous territory just to expand the orange felon’s fucking wall. I’ll never forgive anyone who chose this evil.

The Russians are barbarians and should be treated as such, not as people to negotiate new business deals with to benefit corrupt oligarchs in the US.

OTD, twenty years ago, Anna Politkovskaya was murdered in Moscow. A journalist and human rights defender, she exposed corruption and grave human rights abuses through her reporting, despite repeated threats and attempts on her life.

wow -- Fox Business is now treating Trump's completely made up economic boasts as though they are factual. Note the citation here -- "The White House" Reminder that the entire US economy is about $32t. If we really had $21t flowing in, you'd notice it Fox thinks their viewers are really dumb

And they voted for him anyway 😕
