Norway: "I didn't get the Nobel Prize so I don't want anybody from Norway. I don't want anything to do with Norway…Frankly, Norway sucks. Norway has become a shithouse country, actually."

“SHOVE THAT BALLROOM UP YOUR FAT ASS!”

RFK: "There's five hundred million Arabs in the world. And yet they don't produce science. They don't win the Nobel Prize. They don't win the Fields Prize. They don't win the Wolf Prize. They don't produce literature."

Growth that kills its host isn’t growth. It’s cancer with good PR.

As a former teacher, I never scrubbed in for a gender reassignment surgery, but I did instruct the kids on how to get the window screens off in case of an active shooter…

Never forget

Putin could personally hand Trump a list of war crimes and Trump would probably compliment his handwriting…

⚡️Starshield operations restored to speeds of more than 400 km/h, Ukraine's Defense Ministry says. "We record a speed of more than 400 kilometers per hour, the connection is stable," the ministry said.

Again: Why does Musk have operational control over any *military grade* version of anything. That’s not how DOD contracts work.

New SEC filings show that Mark Zuckerberg is preparing to pay California’s billionaire tax without losing control of Meta. So billionaires can afford to pay the tax? And they won't lose control of their companies or flee the state? Don’t fall for billionaires’ propaganda. Vote YES on Prop 40.

Zelenskyy: “Just imagine, there are Ukrainian children who have never known peace. That’s absolutely horrifying. Many children in Ukraine, including among the fallen, have never lived in peace. We lived in a different time. We understand what it’s like to live without sirens, shelling, and

Let’s go 💙 #Blues

Justice Kagan is right. The Roberts Court has been dividing Americans and bolstering far-right and big-money causes for years, but "court decorum" must have prevented Kagan from stating the obvious -- till now. The situation is so bad that she made the decision to be honest with Americans.

⚡️Ukrainian forces reportedly strike Moscow Oblast weapons plant. Ukrainian forces struck a weapons plant in Serpukhov, Moscow Oblast, overnight on Oct. 22, monitoring channels reported.

Ukraine's 65th Brigade says troops were rotated out after 320 days holding positions near Novoandriivka on the Orikhiv axis. Earlier relief attempts were disrupted by Russian drones and artillery. The soldiers then walked 18 km over three days to reach evacuation, all surviving. #Ukraine

Q: There's a report that FEMA is telling states to prepare to handle disasters on their own. Any reaction? OSSOFF: So the Trump administration is telling folks across the country to prepare to fend for themselves while taxpayer dollars are sent to back Don Jr & Eric's mining interest in Kazakhstan?

🚨 VILE: Vivek Ramaswamy’s new attack ad against Amy Acton features her estranged mother, who stayed married to the man who sexually abused her daughter at age 12, even after his arrest. Now even conservatives are calling the ad disgusting. The horrifying story behind Vivek’s attack:

I can’t wait for this day.

He should not be allowed to have any government contracts--he is operating like a rogue state.

I have a vision😇

YIKES -- Trump loses his shit at a reporter for the third time during this Q&A -- "Wait wait -- Quiet. Quiet!!!! What's wrong with you? Are you a SICK person?"

The GOP Senate Leadership Fund Super PAC paid for this ad going all in on @troyjackson207.bsky.social's family history. My thread on how this is playing on Maine conservative talk radio is here: x.com/Revkin/statu...

With Trump's removal of Starlink, Russians are now hunting cars full of people in Kyiv, using jet drones for which Ukraine's interceptors no longer function to stop. Three people murdered an hour ago in southern Kyiv, with six others injured, three of which are children.

Democrats are preparing to investigate Musk if they win control of the House in November, Politico reports. Potential probes would focus on his DOGE leadership, federal job cuts, alleged data breaches, government contracts and Starlink’s role in Ukraine.

Enten: "Trump's net approval rating -- its all time low! -35 points, the worst he has ever been in the Reuters/Ipsos poll. Among independents he's 54 points underwater. NBC -- worst ever. ABC -- worst ever. Ipsos -- worst ever. Pew -- worst ever."

"Now that the Trump/Putin alliance has been indelibly formalized, denial is no longer a remotely reasonable option" — @davidrlurie.com

Elon Musk has decided the cheapest way to get what he wants is to simply buy a Senator. And there's no one more corrupt — or more willing to be bought — than Ken Paxton.

Zelensky: Ukraine has retaken more territory than Russia captured this fall "The trend this year continues," Zelensky said, "Since the start of fall, our warriors have liberated more territory than the Russians have managed to capture. The same was true at other points this year."

New in PN: Steve Levitsky on the slide into “competitive authoritarianism” "Perhaps the biggest reason the upcoming midterm elections are so critical is because they represent a last chance for voters to stop the American system of government from sliding into full-blown authoritarianism."

RADDATZ: President Trump announced an energy ceasefire. Russia and Ukraine said there was no such thing. Were you involved in that? WRIGHT: This was President Trump encouraging Russia R: But was there ever a ceasefire? W: President Trump is always working to move them in the direction of a deal

It’s the cowardice that gets me. Every damn time.

Asked if he’s seen any White House corruption that makes him squeamish, JD Vance immediately tries to dodge, stammering and claiming he’s "never seen anything like that." Watching JD Vance play totally blind, deaf, and dumb to protect Trump is pathetic cowardice. #momsky#sheshed #momthevote

Ossoff is a punch thrower ànd not a Schumer.

Our “we were owned by right-wing morons” T-shirt has people asking questions that our extended tweet is only going to encourage further.

Ossoff: "You stand here and say you're gonna be a champion for Black Georgians when you elevate to positions of leadership in your political organization people with ties to the Ku Klux Klan."

new kombucha girl just dropped

President Zelenskyy says Ukraine will continue targeting Putin’s Russian bot farm data centers. Good, take them all down.
