New Executive Order coming soon: "Lies must now be officially referred to as "imperfect rhetoric".

Q: Why are you scapegoating immigrants for the issues you're supposed to be solving as the vice president? JD VANCE: To the extent my rhetoric has been imperfect, that's on me

The Supreme Court burns to the ground in Albania, Parliament and the Department of Education has been stormed, the Prime Minister is in hiding and the country is effectively in the hands of the rebels. Albania rejects blatant corruption and their country being sold.

Jones: I've been told I'm too young to understand politics. Too young to understand why some neighborhoods get parks while others get police tape… But they never said I was too young to inherit the debt…. too young to inherit the consequences of decisions I never got to make

Trump has done so many unspeakable horrible things. Things completely devoid of decency, lacking any kind of morality. It's hard to keep up. But what he did to the Ukrainian people, the Ukrainian soldiers fighting for the citizens of Ukraine has got to be right up there near the top.

Reminds me of another one his favorites: " And when you're a star, they let you do it. You can do anything. Grab 'em by the pussy. You can do anything."

Trump: "I didn't go to Congress. Remember Sleepy Joe? 'Oh, if they would give me approval in Congress!' You're not gonna get approval. You just do it. You're the president."

When someone would rather spend time with sausages and pancakes than you:

MS NOW reports that Georgia Republican gubernatorial candidate Rick Jackson said he was too busy to meet with Vance because he was at a "breakfast meet and greet" 😆

This is the real Trump Derangement Syndrome. Their faces are turning yellow. Chicken cowardice yellow.

Emmer with some epic copium: "What's happening right now is money being around where it is most efficient. People say, 'Oh, they're cutting the string on this candidate.' No, that's not true. Perhaps that candidate is stable. Perhaps that candidate is doing what he or she needs to do to win."

This entire thread should disgust every single American. What they did is beyond immoral...but of course if you took every single person in Trump's orbit you wouldn't be able to find even one single speck of decency.

WOW. Kristi Noem and Elon Musk, among others, "chose to turn the power of the federal government against a singular employee with an impeccable record of public service. ... The attacks against Ms. Comans were based entirely on false information" and many officials "knew [they] were untrue."

Still over here trying to figure out why @nbcsnl.bsky.social thought it was a good idea to have that pig Shane Gillis host an episode.He was hired as a cast member on SNL in 2019 then got fired 5 days later when podcast clips surfaced where he was laughing it up over racial slurs &offensive jokes.

It's going to be glorious when President Zelenskyy wins the next Nobel Peace Prize.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Wow — listen to these new comments from Trump. Thanking Putin, trashing Zelenskyy, characterizing Russia as eager for peace and Ukraine as intransigent. The mask is totally off.

Oh. So sickasshole Hegseth is going to air a live execution now. Seems like we're completely up to our necks in a brutal regime. I guess we're too busy with drinking pumpkin lattes and apple cider donuts to do anything about it. Ah well, we're all fucked. And yes Im feeling quite negative about it

Maybe it's just me but a lot of the troops in front of him look like they're almost just jogging....and I assume they're doing this so they don't lap him and make it any more embarrassing for him.

Another great article from Amanda Marcotte. Worth the time to read.

Amanda Marcotte@amandamarcotte.bsky.social

Hegseth doubles down on his vision of a military staffed only with people like him: White. Male. Evangelical. Straight. The problem is that there just aren’t that many of them. And he’s supposed to be fighting a war. www.salon.com/2026/10/07/p...

If anyone needs any more proof that the Trump mafia is turning our country into some kind of dicto-fascist-oligarchy here ya go.

so this guy Steven Chung says that we can no longer believe our own ears and eyes.... i suppose next he'll tell us that what we see here is not a slovenly excuse for a man, but a buff hottie.

Can you imagine if this happened here with RFK jr in charge? 🤢

⚡️Plague death triggers quarantine, mask mandates in Russia's Irkutsk region in Siberia. The measures come after Darya Shipilova, a lab technician at the Irkutsk Anti-Plague Research Institute in Shelekhov, died after reportedly contracting plague on Oct. 2.

The president of the United States says he feels sorry for men who gang raped a woman . I can't believe he can fall any lower than this but it's only Friday. Piggish old narcissistic billionaire pedophile rapist.

Headquarters@headquartersnews.bsky.social

Trump defends the men in the Cornell gang rape case, saying he “feels bad” for them and they won't get a “fair shake”

I am not religious but I wholeheartedly agree with Pope Leo. He gets it. A shame the oaf in the WH doesn't possess the skill to understand this.

Andrea Junker@strandjunker.com

“There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity.” — Pope Leo (This non-religious artist is nodding enthusiastically!)

I have a "plan" to ride a unicorn and have the tooth fairy over for tea. The odds of my plan happening are greater than whatever lie he's peddling now.

Exclusive: President Trump will announce a Minnesota company’s plan to build a $15 billion steel mill in Iowa, as he looks to counter voter frustration with the economy ahead of the midterm elections.
