My favorite political ad of all time and it's not even close

There is a massive corruption scandal unfolding in the US, with top American executives abandoning a $25 billion gas project over allegations of secret Russian investment and control. ​All of this is happening just as the US administration moves to ease sanctions on Russia. ​

So now Trump is going to sell Alaska back to Russia?!! Turning the clock all the way back to 1867….

Wrong. Oh so wrong, Marco!

The fact that the president's doctors are giving him the dementia test over and over again -- tracking his decline, most likely -- and that the president keeps bragging about having to take that test should be a five-alarm fire.

Two weeks out, Trump's FCC chair is warning TV stations that polls showing Trump & the GOP losing could count as "News Distortion" The First Amendment has no exception for polls the president doesn't like The poll that matters most is Nov 3, & Carr can't keep that one off the air -TN

Disgusting.

"With a seeming flick of a switch, Musk has the power to alter the course of a deadly conflict. " Nobody should have that kind of power www.wsj.com/world/ukrain...

Donald Trump has abandoned the Western order, turning America into a Russian ally, @radiofreetom.bsky.social argues: theatln.tc/fC0XMlGu

Worth noting this, in light of Meta's temporary ban on the 'No Kings' Instagram account

Of all the things that never happened, this is the thing that never happened the most. #16DaysUntilTheBeginningOfTheEND-IfYouVOTE 🗳️ ✅

She will always be remembered as one of the all-time greats.

She absolutely went out of her way to intentionally mislead the viewers in every segment that she was an experienced lawyer who had practiced law. Nobody with half a brain can watch this & think otherwise. She’s a fraud which makes her perfect for a senior Trump appointment. bsky.app/profile/noth...

Building an administration around who is willing to affirm absolute loyalty to you during cable news hits is not a great plan.

Coward.

Apologies Ukraine, apologies NATO, apologies free world. As an American, I once again apologize that we put a cruel, sociopathic madman in the White House who also happens to be a Russian asset. So he’s on Putin’s side. America apologizes. Most of America opposes him.

Nailed it. 🔨

Donald Trump again spitting on the grave of every dead Ukrainian. He’s again spitting on the grave of every American service member killed in his war against Iran. He’s making crystal clear again that he is not on the side of the free world. Tell me again that he’s not a Russian asset. Go ahead.

Think of it this way: the most extreme progressive project in history (the USSR) believed it could create a New Soviet Man, free of decadent beliefs (such as religion, envy, selfishness), with the State as his teacher and mentor - because human nature is just malleable clay. /1

Nothing to see here...just the President of the United States inviting the country he illegally declared war on to "take out" 2 major American cities. If that's not treason, what is? 🤬 Law enforcement won't hold him accountable, but we WILL! The beginning of the end is on November 3rd. #VOTE-BLUE 🌊

His con may well be at the end of its road, but he is the most successful conman in American history.

Ken Paxton has taken over 275 out-of-state trips since taking office. Texans have spent $1.9 million in taxpayer funds on his luxury vacations.

Great ad.

Jack Smith: "Our investigation developed proof beyond a reasonable doubt that President Trump engaged in serious crimes against our nation ... rather than accept his defeat in the 2020 election, he engaged in a criminal scheme to overturn the results and prevent the lawful transfer of power"

Just imagine the amount of squealing, hands thrown up to the heavens, and shirts torn open in righteous indignation if Ukraine, even once (!) responded to Russia’s mass killings and barbaric bombardment of historical heritage by striking the Bolshoi Theatre or the Hermitage…

In a normal administration counterintelligence agents at the FBI would be investigating this photo. In this administration, the FBI director is in the photo.

"His summits are a national hazard precisely because Trump apparently does not understand that he is representing the United States; instead, he seems to think he’s just having a visit with some of the guys in a very cool club of which he’d very much like to be a member."

The trailer for my new film, "Musk," has just been released.

Facebook really doesn't want you to see the new documentary exposing Elon Musk Neither do TikTok or Google or the eX social media site. Since they won't accept paid advertising, let's do some free advertising. Go see Musk in theaters October 9 www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/dig...

THE “WORST OF THE WORST”: A NUN WITH A WORK PERMIT. Sleep peacefully, America. ICE caught Sister Leticia Ugboaja walking to Sunday Mass. She had a valid work permit, attended EVERY required immigration appointment and complied with EVERY condition of her court-ordered protection. 1/4

It has been a brutal and protracted slugfest. But I think we can finally declare a winner in the long-running "Who is the dumbest United States Senator?" competition.

The Republicans are rolling out their October Surprise for the midterms early. They really got us this time. bsky.app/profile/fact...

Anyone surprised? Trump slammed this project through to get it built before anyone could get in the way. All he wants is another thing with his name on it.

Donald Trump is a sick person. You almost feel you can't hold him fully responsible for his deep psychological deformities. I have more contempt for his aides, who, in humoring him, feed his illness and encourage him to do both symbolic and real damage to the nation. www.ms.now/news/trump-f...

Good. Damn good.

The most influential member of the Trump Administration by far - Natalie Harp.

The far-right ideologues and grifters running U.S. foreign policy are the vanguard of a movement that will alter not just America but the world, @anneapplebaum.wsocial.eu reports.

The Kennedy Center was financially stable until Trump took over: "In the fiscal year ending in 2024, when the center was led by President Deborah Rutter and a bipartisan board of trustees, it brought in about $40 million more than it spent" www.theatlantic.com/culture/2026...

He’s a fascist. He’s the most anti-free speech, anti-free press president in American history. He’s also the biggest fucking crybaby who’s ever lived.👇

Apparently it is of no concern to any Republicans that Trump and Bessent are taking in billions of dollars from plundered Venezuelan oil and nobody knows where the money is, where is has been going, if anyone is getting proceeds, with no accounting of any of it made available.

Imagine a Vice President of the United States getting a fact-check Community Note that the heckler was right and you are lying. These people just can’t stop lying.

Texas is delaying its typical September 1 release of maternal mortality data until December 1, conveniently timed to be after the midterm election. Recent reports have shown a sharp rise in ectopic pregnancy deaths after the abortion ban went into effect. www.austinchronicle.com/news/texas-p...

I promise to be different! I promise to be unique! I promise not to repeat things other people say! Trump's vow was....weird. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

Since becoming president again, Trump has promised: -$5000 stimulus checks via "DOGE dividend" -$2000 stimulus checks via "tariff dividend" -$1000+ checks via "savings" from expiring ACA subsidies -$5000 "dividend" if Rs win midterms No checks have been issued www.thebulwark.com/p/trump-magi...

Why do people only supposedly get the $5,000 if Republicans win in November? Republicans control everything and have for 2 years. Why didn’t they do it before? Why don’t they come back into session tomorrow and pass it right now? Because it’s all a lie, like everything else.
