This! And this is exactly the right tone and information to share every time someone blames the US electorate for where we are right now... every time someone says how devastated they are that he won the election. We can't change it now, but we CAN protect 2026 & acknowledging the truth matters!
electiontruthalliance.org and smartelections.us . They’ve been doing the work. The analysis aligns with the weird feeling we all had on election night.
🚨 A bombshell new House Judiciary Democrats report details allegations from 11 women linking Trump to Jeffrey Epstein, including five who accuse Trump of sexual assault.
The report also alleges a sweeping DOJ cover-up.
We broke down the explosive findings.
NEW: At least 18 voting centers in Alaska Native communities have not opened despite early voting having already started in the state last week.
“There is no legal excuse for the failure to open these sites,” one state senator wrote to the Alaska elections chief.
For some reason DOJ is asking for a protective order regarding polygraphs in the Brian Cole case (the accused pipe bomber).
It may have to do with his attempt to graymail DOJ over the Shauni Kerkhoff part of the investigation.

Trump admin arrests Colorado priest.
Incarcerates him for over a year.
Judge orders him released without charges.
They release him without the wheelchair he needs -- other prisoners have to bodily carry him out.
He's now being tested for latent TB:

The governor of Bahia calls out the election sabotage, which has been reported in at least 10 states now, and demands extended voting hours. This is a shit show
JUST POSTED: Today at The NYT we are publishing a major investigation into how President Trump used his executive powers to expose millions of Americans to greater cancer risks.
A six month-long investigation built on more than 10,000 pages of FOIA records. Read it

Corrupt SCOTUS rules against voters again.
The Supreme Court just made voting harder for New Hampshire students, letting officials reject student IDs even as supporting proof of identity. Eligible voters could lose their chance to cast a ballot.

Some government websites in Europe and elsewhere went offline on October 21 after vulnerabilities in PHP, a widely used programming language, were uncovered using AI. Raphael Satter explains why.
Expensive gas behind ‘nearly 90%’ of rise in UK electricity bills, new analysis from @nesta_uk in @CarbonBrief

MAJOR UPDATE: Shortly after this published, I obtained another document confirming this will be a removal flight only. If carried out, it would be the largest third-country removal to Africa so far: 25 people to Eq. Guinea, 30 to Burundi + 100 to Central African Rep.

SCOOP: I've obtained documents showing an ICE flight is scheduled to land Thursday or Friday in Equatorial Guinea -- where Ahmed Soliman is still imprisoned and seriously ill, despite a federal judge ordering his return to the US more two weeks ago. prospect.org/2026/10/21/i...
🇩🇪 For the first time, the Bundeswehr has acknowledged the threat of Russian sabotage against German troops in Germany as "significant."
This is the second-highest threat level on the country's armed forces' internal scale, reports Süddeutsche Zeitung.
I have appreciated Stephanie Rhule's perspective on the economy and our world going all the way back to early days at Bloomberg! I'm sure this will be a worthwhile read.
Stephanie Ruhle is publishing a book about her journey from Wall Street to TV. "The New Rules: Work, Life, Money and the Power of Minding Your Business" comes out in March. You can pre-order it now.

Huge follow-up reporting to my scoop: The Guardian confirmed America Next—the conservative nonprofit founded by Bobby Jindal that was offering students $ to disrupt El-Sayed events—paid a firm registered to Tommy Teepell’s dad Timmy $250k for “canvassing and influencer marketing” against El-Sayed.
🚨 What we're tracking today:
1. Moscow-tied communist groups catalyzed France's protests.
2. Russian satellite moves away from target, for now.
3. Romania: drones it downed were likely Russian.
4. Midterm risks remain ELEVATED.

Siding with Putin should be a bridge too far for any patriotic American.
As should supporting Bibi’s atrocities in Gaza.
As should letting the oligarchs buy our federal government and prey on the working class.
These aren’t policy differences.
They are betrayals of our history and our values.
🚨 Britain’s top Army general, Sir Roly Walker, warns that citizens must prepare for the possibility of war and make sacrifices for national defense.
He says the military will need the public’s support to “take the fight to the enemy.”
Watch:
If lefties continue to makebelieve what actual Dems are actually doing based off Beutler posts rather than learning what they are doing and magnifying it, they are the ones protecting corruption.
If Dems don't seize hold of the "corruption" theme, Republicans will. And because Dems continue to protect the Republican brand, voters will conclude, not unfairly, that both parties are as bad as each other. Either you're strongly anti-corruption or you're corrupt. No middle ground on this issue.
SCOOP: 'Tommy' from the now-viral exchange with Abdul El-Sayed is Thomas Teepell, a former staffer for Republican Senator Josh Hawley with close ties to Christian Nationalist Sean Feucht. He's the son of a former Bobby Jindal staffer whose consultant work was instrumental in getting Hawley elected.
In early 2025, I assumed the Trump regime would delete the Department of Justice’s press releases and other statements related to more than 1,000 Jan. 6 cases.
So I downloaded them. We’ve now made them available to the public with a search tool.
They can’t erase history.

Again: Elon (with Trump’s permission) throttling Ukraine via Starlink to help Putin kill Ukrainians.
Building Starlink into essential systems is handing Elon supervillain-level powers.

I mean, does he have the raise the Russian flag over what's left of the White House for the media to get their sh!t together on who he works for. We live in the upside down. This is nuts.
Nobody in the White House has the balls to accept responsibility for endangering the lives of not just Ukrainians, but all those who work in the country.
More officials are now pointing fingers towards the White House.

A GOP-linked super PAC is boosting a socialist in Ohio to peel votes from Sherrod Brown.
@jimswift.bsky.social on this deceptive direct mail campaign:
“Suddenly, the people who spend all year warning you about socialism would like you to consider a socialist. How thoughtful.”
The guy who wrote Trump’s crypto law was on the payroll of the company it regulates. When the law passed, they made him CEO.
This is how the White House operates now. Trump set the example and everyone underneath him is keeping up. Watch my full analysis below:

Midweek update. This is the week when trusting the USA was shown to be a catastrophe. The second part has a detailed primer on the Starlink/Starshield sabotage of Ukraine. This is US being a fully fledged Putin ally and will cause many Ukrainian deaths phillipspobrien.substack.com/p/midweek-up...
I called Trump’s deal with Putin “a deepening betrayal” on Monday. Now it’s clear he’s a despicable traitor with blood on his hands as Ukraine’s civilian deaths mount—and who’s making all of us less safe. www.americaamerica.news/p/another-be...
Let me be specific: Donald Trump is an f-ing traitor. He is in cahoots with Putin and Russia to break our democratic ally, Ukraine, which makes all of us less safe. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/14/w...
In this @phillipspobrien.bsky.social makes the excellent point, that Starlink dependency is as much as a threat to the US as it is globally. A malevolent operator, making political donations in the hundreds of millions, could easily use the on/off switch to impact domestic political opponents.

Like my friend @rokhanna.bsky.social says here, Congress has a constitutional right to assess the damage of the Iran War. Denying a Member of Congress even a briefing with military officials is a full blown cover up.

Putin has not funded disruption and chaos across Europe and the UK solely to weaken his enemies. He also knows that disruption and chaos favour the far right. And the far right loves Putin. It will abandon Ukraine and build him a highway into Europe.

a big part of ossoff's rhetorical success is it doesnt contain the compromise and caveats that are a baked-in part of democratic party rhetoric. theres no pretending that his opponent is just misguided or will be pulled back from the edge by "the good republicans."
ossoff is saying "fuck this guy"
Putin has put on a masterclass of manipulating the ignorance & avarice of Trump & Co. these last few weeks. The hayseed who thinks he’s getting cheaper diesel for his tractor has no idea the price he’s gonna pay in the long run. Democracy has lost this round to an obese grifter.
THIS! Always ask yourself who benefits or will benefit when tRUmp does anything. Iran was always about this.... and a way to make the US military much weaker.
Not for free right? So, let's do the math. 500,000 metric tons of diesel is about $500 million. A million worth $1 billion dollars. This looks an aid program for Russia and an effective disabling of US sanctions. This strengthens the Kremlin and is a threat to US, allied interests.
