It’s not just about affordability. Maybe for the first time since 1974, voters say their main concern heading into the midterms is corruption in government. Great to see.

Richard, a Georgia truck driver and three-time Trump voter, has finally caught on. He says he’s voting for Ossoff after Trump’s war sent diesel costs soaring. “It pisses me off. We just want someone in office who’ll stand up for us.”

Talarico: I've heard credible reports that Ken Paxton has a serious medical condition that causes clinical levels of cowardice. People are concerned. He has asked for proof of life from me. I'm asking for proof of spine from him.

The United States is now officially allied with Vladimir Putin and Russia. We will fund Russia’s genocidal war machine in exchange for Putin helping Trump and the Republican Party in the midterms. One of the most shameful and disgusting days in the history of this Republic.

A BFD. As people get ready to fill their heating oil tanks for the winter, they learn it will cost 80% more than last year. Your early Christmas Gift from Trump and the Republican Party is that your Christmas present budget will now go to their friends in the oil business.

Ted Nugent is having some buyer's remorse. Turns out "owning the libs" feels a little different when the policies you voted for start hitting your own interests.

The most Republican thing ever is to claim you suddenly care about affordability by giving a speech at a yacht club.

WE CAN WIN KANSAS. ICYMI— This debate 🔥 Adam Hamilton won over the crowd. Incumbent Republican Roger Marshall did his best, and still got booed, jeered and heckled by the people he represents.

Virginia AG Jay Jones calls out Republican officials who are too afraid to stand up to Trump: “Your loyalty and your obligation runs to your state and to the people who you represent, not to the president.”

The Pentagon has never received a passing grade on a comprehensive financial audit. One thing is clear: Vast sums are funneled into costly weapon systems that chronically come in over budget.

Essential reading on the consequences of El Niño. Its impacts on staple crops, rice in particular, will land on top of fertiliser shortages and low US harvests due to drought. “A sufficiently large El Niño is not a weather anomaly at all. It is going to be a global food shock on a 12 month fuse.”

4hunger.orgScorched Harvest: The Strongest El Niño Ever Forecast, the Crops in Its Path, and the Hunger It Will Leave BehindHow 3.6 degrees of warm water in the tropical Pacific is about to redraw the map of global hunger and why, this time, no one in power can claim they were not warned.

Calling North Korea "unthreatening and respectful" when they send missiles, shells, and troops to kill Ukrainians is a special kind of lunacy.

When did all this daily drama, mania, insanity and lunacy start? Oh yeah, it was January 20, 2025. Every day more corruption, threats, arrests, firings, shootings, indictments, scandals, and power grabs. The other guy was old. This guy is an old, psychotic, malignant narcissist.

Trump, sitting next to Zelenskyy: "In one day, we could knock down every single bridge in Iran. There's not a thing they can do about it ... if we have to, we'll take them out. They have desalinization plants. We'll take them out if we have to ... maybe we'll take over Kharg island."

Oh hey i was reminded of something. Anthony Fauci came to the White House AT THE INVITATION OF TRUMP. Trump is mad because a million people died under his watch so he’s blaming fauci vs accept responsibility. Just like Iran, and just like the reflective pool. Always someone else’s fault

Jon Cooper@joncooper-us.bsky.social

Trump’s name went up on the Kennedy Center in broad daylight. Removing it? Full scaffolding plus a giant curtain to hide the humiliation from the public. Nothing screams “strong leader” like draping theater curtains over your own petty rejection. Fragile ego on full display. 😂
