This is joy. This is fuel to keep on. Let it cycle for three or four minutes and then go make the world a little better.

If you are too young to really remember the Obama years, conservatives were like this every single day. He really did just break their brains.

My original statement continues to age like a fine wine or whine.

Many things that have happened recently make it clear conservatives are trying to make talking about your abuse not worth the trouble. Their good old days.

One party is anti-rape and one party is pro-rape, so prominent coverage of rape accusations of one party’s leader would be biased. The job of the press is to be objective. Or: Voters already knew Trump was a rapist, it’s baked in. The job of the press is novelty to influence electoral outcomes.

I emailed Patrick Healy, assistant managing editor for standards and trust at NYT, to ask why their story about a House report with new details of rape allegations against the President of the United States included neither those details, nor a single use of the word "rape." archive.is/1s9AM

There's so much else wrong with this stupid lawsuit but on this specific point: despite being "busy" with "lives" and "jobs," Alaskans were able to spell M-U-R-K-O-W-S-K-I when they reelected her to the Senate as a write-in candidate in 2010 after she lost the GOP primary.

You’ll notice the American state media treated Hunter Biden’s laptop, the lies spread about him by GOPers and his selling of paintings as more of a earth shattering story than criminal slumlord committing treason by taking billions of dollars in bribes whilst shaping US foreign policy. Disgusting.

the actual reason is that the media likes Trump and wants to help him. They didn't like Hillary and they didn't like Biden and wanted to hurt them. That explains why Hillary's emails was covered as a nuclear-level scandal and "Trump is a violent rapist who is best friends with Jeff Epstein" isn't

this is something Dems can just hammer on for the next two years televised hearings every week about Epstein, Epstein, Epstein make the drumbeat so loud the media doesn’t have a choice in covering it

Trump’s “only real, authentic pleasure is in cruelty…It is that cruelty, and the delight it brings them, that binds his most ardent supporters to him, in shared scorn for those they hate and fear: immigrants, black voters, feminists and treasonous white men…” www.nytimes.com/2026/10/25/o...

In 2020, Ken Paxton’s office spent more than 22,000 hours on voter fraud cases. The result was 16 prosecutions. “That’s 16 cases in a state of 17 million registered voters,” Marc Elias says. The rules for voting keep changing. Follow us so nothing catches you off guard.

🚨 BREAKING: Travis County judge granted Gina Hinojosa's request to inspect Greg Abbott's unredacted Musk emails. Judge Mauzy set Thursday 10 AM as the DEADLINE for Abbott to let her see them. Abbott tried to keep them hidden, calling them "intimate and embarrassing."

“The choice is not particularly nuanced. Stick with the Republicans who have chosen cruelty, chaos & corruption. Or vote in Democrats who recognize the crisis…can hold the criminals accountable & are motivated to pursue a more equitable & affordable future.” www.americaamerica.news/p/showing-tr...

The Times is a maddening mix of good work and work that's complicit. The news side of the Post is trying to hang on to standards and is sometimes better than the Times. This is a decent story. wapo.st/4eBsLiD

Democrats need to emphasize to the voters how much Trumpites now sound like Mafia arsonists

Just when you thought that things couldn’t get anymore weird, they do something like this 👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽

Trump’s presidency is a wealth transfer from the bottom to the top

I'm also disappointed in our reporters. In the UK, in Scotland, I'm pretty sure they'd start booing at this point. Get a little spine.

I mean this is obviously HEINOUS but it's also so, so wrong, I can't understand it. Where does he think "algebra" came from? Has he heard of Avicenna? The history of math and science is full of Arabic scholars! en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...

This is like when he swore no one with autism could have a job, create music, write literature. The whole world is only the people he's met personally, and even those personal experiences are so colored by his biases that I'm not sure he's ever known anybody.

Ever heard someone say "protest doesn't change anything"? Brazil and Serbia just proved them wrong. 🇧🇷 🇷🇸

Our Department of Justice Inequity has no response?

“DOJ lawsuits are press releases with government captions at the top.” @marcelias.bsky.social hits the nail on the head.

Bolsonaro just learned the hard way that Trump's loyalty has the shelf life of warm shrimp.

The fact that Trump keeps claiming voter fraud in the 2026 midterms before a single vote has been counted is wild to me. Reminds me of how he won all seven swing states in 2024. If you and I were planning to cheat, we’d say, “Let’s do five, not seven. It’ll seem more believable.”
