The only reason I can think of for this news not being absolutely everywhere is that large media orgs don’t want to be seen as putting their thumbs on the scales a week before election day. And that’s cowardly as shit.
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...
Trump now claims 🇨🇦 “willing to give us anything at this moment”, but he's the one, fearing a big loss in Maine, to just axe tariffs on a number of products. Collins already claiming she helped convince him of this. 🇨🇦 didn't initiate any of this. This is Trump's TACO www.reuters.com/world/us/tru...

NEW: Trump is a Russian asset. And the UK government is finally waking from its decade-long slumber Read this. And order a wind-up radio. broligarchy.substack.com/p/the-dark-t...
Pretty good indication that tech oligarchs have too much power and are a real existential threat to freedom of thought, and accountability.
It seems Elon is successfully squashing the @alexgibneyfilm documentary about him. We can confirm showtimes in the Nashville area have disappeared. www.showbiz411.com/2026/10/23/c...
So much stupid here. First, the idea that a megalomaniac unilaterally renaming oceans is a bridge too far, but he can rename lakes, gulfs, states and performing centres. Second, that tech bros hold that much power that this is even decided in this idiotic theatre of the absurd.

Outright illegality, bribery, another 'perfect phone call' if you will, and the media don't even bother because he has so normalized abhorrent behaviour that America just expects it. A decade of zero accountability.
Trump: "If you elected a Republican House and Senate on November 3, you're gonna get $5,000. And if we lose, you get nothing. You're gonna get nothing! If we lose, you get nothing. Make it a lot easier vote."
Trump of course has to go, but this kind of poison will remain infecting the information sphere long after. When they say 'serious resources', it's just Big Money phishing to justify bigotry. And the bigotry, fear, ignorance is the key to manipulating power.
CBS Boss Bari Weiss Has Committed ‘Serious Resources’ to Try to Link Abdul El-Sayed With Muslim Brotherhood: Report
The idiotic idea that involuntary complex gender surgery is taking place inside of a school day remains a political position taken seriously is enough to tell you how far down the abyss the US has travelled. The more flagrant their actual crimes, the more delusional their positions are to hide them.
Ashley Hinson claims Josh Turek supports "allowing kids to change their gender at school and not tell their parents"
Consumed by petty vengeance, his enemies live rent free in what is otherwise empty space in his head. He has tried desperately all of those things, but like everything else he claims, it amounts to delusional mutterings from a broken shameless POS. The world awaits the 'have you no decency moment'.
Trump: "Honestly, I could've done numbers on Hillary Clinton. I could've done numbers on Bill Clinton. I could've done numbers on Barack Hussein Obama. Still could. I still could. I could do big numbers if I wanted to. Go after them. Criminally. Destroy their reputations."

After years of championing "free speech," Texas lawmakers have enabled a dramatic rise of censorship in Texas universities, banning concepts, canceling courses and closing departments seen as "woke," and even using AI bots as censors. All in the name of freedom. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/1...
Every day is a new low in 🇺🇸. It's a cesspool of criminality, stupidity & rank racist hate. It's unsustainable & being driven into both economic & cultural bankruptcy. Its hegemony in tatters, & its president reduced to schoolyard insults while throngs of the stupid clap. It took less than a decade.

“These for-profit facilities offering MRI and surgical services take in much more funding from the province than they pay out in value to #Ontarians,” says @alonghurst.bsky.social. “And [this does not] lead to shorter diagnostic and surgical wait times...” www.thesudburystar.com/news/private...
Good trouble voices like Elias and others are drowned out by the criminal syndicate, the MAGA knuckle draggers, a complacent media & a Dem elite that simply has no fight or commitment to the ideas ppl like Elias are breaking their backs to uphold. If Ds win in NOV, what will they have won?
You’ve likely seen the news: The U.S. Supreme Court Friday greenlit a flawed Trump administration database for purging voters from the rolls. Almost as troubling: Plenty of major news outlets were eager to downplay the decision’s importance. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

There are no moral obstacles to conservative lying when it comes to advancing one of their deluded positions. This is truly disgusting stuff and Fox is a cancer.
A couple went on a Fox News podcast and claimed the state of #Massachusetts took away their teen because they won't help the teen transition. But it's actually because the father was charged with beating and threatening to kill the teen and the mother was charged with witness intimidation.
This is pure projection again: Trump came in caused chaos, said gov was a swampy mess, that only he could fix, that saving the republic or taking it back needed him and that he would be a dictator on day one. And it has definitely been insane. Trumpies are such little twits.
DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin: "The only way you can take a republic country like the United States and turn it into a communist country is by causing chaos on purpose and then saying, 'hey look, government is a mess. You need us, the communist country, to rule you.' It's insane."
This is what living in a autocratic state looks like. The 1st amendment is now meaningless...perhaps all of them are.....except for the 2nd, as long as you have the correct melanin levels & party affiliation.
BREAKING: Jimmy Kimmel says his interview with Texas Senate candidate James Talarico will NOT air on ABC due to threats from Trump’s FCC. The interview will instead be posted to YouTube.

Donald Trump did NOTHING for New York after 9/11. He was never at Ground Zero. He sent no construction crews. And there's no evidence he donated a single penny to help As we mourned our family, our friends, our city, Trump's only "contribution" was to brag that he had the tallest building downtown
Trump claims that after 9/11, "I went down, I was building a building in New York, and I went down there very shortly thereafter -- the following day, you couldn't go down the same day -- and we worked long and hard"

I've been Black long enough to have at least some built-in 'yup, people be racist, and yet we move' defense systems But ngl shit can still sometimes be...jarring! Like seeing this, openly and shamelessly, and knowing Gorsuch had him in his chambers, and that he helps pick federal judges. Sickening!

Perfectly embodies the famous Arendt quote, "power invariably replaces all first-rate talents, regardless of their sympathies, with those crackpots and fools whose lack of intelligence and creativity is still the best guarantee of their loyalty"
He might be a corrupt useless slug, but he tried to help me steal the 2020 election so you probably should vote for him.

An advocacy group is lobbying the Saskatchewan government to implement a policy for universities, expanding the definition of antisemitism to include “undue criticism of Israel,” “opposition to Zionism” and “colonial narratives.” zurl.co/BKhkE
Perhaps the ugliest sign after a decade of Trump is the return of this. There is so much wrong in America, but this revives the ugliest and most enduring sin of America. Far from scrubbing it from their history books, they are reviving it.

What a great story about a great human being. 💔 RIP Dolly
This girl I used to waitress with in Austin, we moved to New York together in 2003 on a literal Greyhound bus. Shared a fifth floor walk-up studio that, when it rained, had more leaks in the ceiling than we had pots and pans. We used to get drunk and smoke off the fire escape and do “sad-offs.”

The depressing thing about the US isn't Trump really. He's just a grotesque. It's the complete failure of all the things liberals believe in: Congress, the judiciary, the press, voters themselves, all persistently unwilling or unable to stop him. It's the failure of an entire society.
And yet still farm counties will vote Republican. They always do.
