NEW: The DOGE operative who gutted USAID -- firing thousands of employees and canceling lifesaving programs -- never actually signed the paperwork that's legally required for him to be employed by the agency.

There's zero doubt these people are going to jail for a long, long time if they ever lose power...which almost guarantees a coup attempt

This is the "out and proud" stage of capitalism, where they harness govt to openly proclaim and empower their desire to destroy people and the planet in their endless, rabid, deranged pursuit of more and more immediate profit.

JUST POSTED: The U.S. Called It Putin’s ‘Slush Fund.’ Now Trump May Drop Sanctions on It. The move would be the latest concession to Moscow by President Trump. A NYT exclusive by Anton Troianovski www.nytimes.com/2026/10/27/u...

The Scene reports here that the “youthful indiscretions” Taylor refers to include unsolicited nude photos sent as recently as 2021 when he was 53.

i am inviting anyone from a legacy media organization to explain to me why the house judiciary dems report on trump’s epstein’s ties and multiple allegations of rape isn’t worthy of extensively reporting on. i’m serious. i want to understand.

I would like to report the owner of Mar-a-Lago who signed an oath under penalty of felony perjury that the White House was his *Florida* voter registration residence Oh wait, he has to be arrested and convicted. darn

LOL, sucker: "Bob Woodward Thought Jeff Bezos Had His Back. Now He Feels Disillusioned."

Why is the modern GOP struggling with a Nazi problem? John Oliver lays out the case in a simple, powerful, hilarious way, connecting the inability of today's Republicans to denounce white supremacy to a long tradition inside the party. WATCH: https://loom.ly/y1gqvds

🚨BREAKING: We have moved for a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction enjoining Trump from continuing to unconstitutionally impose themselves upon election administration procedures that the Constitution and federal law assign to the States.

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.

it feels truly insane that it’s not

A serial rapist was elected twice as President, a fact we don't reckon with nearly enough. Now one of two major political parties has been molded in his image, run for and by violent sexual abusers who hate women.

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...

My pal Danielle Koenig shared that her father Walter Koenig passed away last night at age 90. A performer whose kindness and warmth shone through the screen. He will be well remembered.

NEW: "Donald Trump was an active participant in Jeffrey Epstein’s sexual abuse of young women during the mid-to-late 1990s," per new House Judiciary Dem report. Report has new allegation that Trump raped a 24-year-old and then promised the victim a visa & NYU admission, demanding she stay quiet.

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

"Both top-shelf reporting and top officials in the Trump administration, including Trump himself, have said that Musk made this decision on his own. That would be treason. The traditional way to figure out the truth of such a matter is with a trial." prospect.org/2026/10/26/d...

Not a battle I was expecting, but one I'll gladly watch.

Shout out to Brazil and Serbia. Reminders that an unfair fight can still be won are needed now. Keeping that hope alive is a gift to the world. Thank you.

For two years, student-led protests have raged against Aleksandar Vučić and his corrupt government in Serbia. Today, in parliamentary elections, he was toppled. One of the most sustained protest movements in recent European history has succeeded. Resistance works.

it literally does?

A Lula win is great news for those of us who enjoy breathing air, and will probably save several species from extinction

the idea that empathy is dangerous has been permeating right-wing spaces for a while, but it's not an actual element of their ideology as much as it's a defense mechanism against confronting the reality of their cruelty

Trump is straight up saying during speeches that he wants white people coming to the country but not black. I don’t know what else people need to see.

Khanna: I kind of feel bad for James Carville. It’s like watching an athlete who’s been in ten seasons too long, and you know he’s lost his fastball. Someone has got to just say, “James, you had a great run in 1992. Just enjoy retired life.”

“protein enriched chocolate chip cookie” is kinda the perfect synthesis of the conflicting american male desires to be a spartan warrior and also five years old

This is true. Qatar is widely believed to be the biggest financial backer of the Muslim Brotherhood.

I want to write Hallmark channel movies that are direct prequels to the last two Evil Dead movies using the exact same casts.

The DOJ claimed over 16,000 noncitizen voters in Nevada. Real number? Zero. ZERO. I'd put any claims of "massive" numbers by the DOJ straight into the round file.

Trump says Alaska’s ballot is illegal because people don’t know what “incumbent” means

If still debating whether Donald Trump or Elon Musk willfully crippled Ukraine's missile defense, helping to slay innocent civilians, you are a rube. If the U.S. President had no role, then an oligarch governs national security. If not, the U.S. President serves Russia. Both answers are mortifying.

billionaires bought the news and this is what we get.

An interviewer once asked Charles Schulz if he had ever considered hiring assistants to write/draw Peanuts for him. Schulz laughed and responded “I’d just as soon hire someone to play golf for me!”

The soaring costs of public universities is a political decision. When these schools predominantly served white students, they tended to be free (UC, CCNY, etc.) But as the number of students of color has increased, funding for the public universities has decreased. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/25/b...

this is total gobbledygook? the process to decide who should be certified as the winner is the election, and there is no federal law that says the courts get to decide who that is.
