You can't expect the New York Times to give any attention to a story about the president being credibly accused of violent rape when the story breaks so close to an election. It's not like we're talking about something *really* important, like email security protocols.

A former Miss Switzerland beauty pageant contestant has accused President Donald Trump of sexually assaulting her at New York's Plaza Hotel in 1993, according to her account to Congress. Trump has denied the allegations.

Off the charts Trump family corruption. Kushner got Billions of foreign funds, while spearheading foreign policy. And the Hunter Biden hunters are silent. @MarshaBlackburn

Did brain worm just rat on no brain?

Seeing how little coverage that house report that added another rape accusation to Trump's tally got today, I looked back on just the front page Benghazi stories (there were many, many more inside over these months).

Pretty sure when Bessent walked into Cheesecake Factory, his first, unfiltered thought was, "Jeez, this does remind me of the Oval Office!"

Trump in Mississippi: "I'm here because Cindy is doing great" (He's there because Cindy is not doing great)

“covert surveillance inside houses of worship… “interrogations of churches’ staff… “ICE agents hauled off a nun who was wearing her habit and walking down the sidewalk en route to Sunday Mass… “suing a Catholic diocese in New Mexico to seize 14 acres of their land…” www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

Obama’s Cheesecake Factory line clearly didn’t bother him at all 😬

It was everybody business when the Republicans were on Hunter Biden for weeks and weeks.. Of course it’s our business to know who, what, where, this 20 year old is getting so much money from? They Investigated Hunter, time to Investigate Barron Trump..

This is what putting South Carolina first looks like. I’m honored to have the support of two former governors — Republican David Beasley and Democrat Jim Hodges. We may not agree on everything, but we share a belief that matters most: S.C. deserves leaders who will always put its people first.

Kavanaugh stops in action: ICE tackled a non-verbal kid near his school, left him with injuries requiring surgery, and then left the scene when they realized he wasn't the person they were looking for www.independent.com/2026/10/23/i...

At the end of lecture this morning I told my students it was none of my business who they voted for, but it was absolutely my business that they voted. "It is, quite literally, the least you can do." They seemed to appreciate it. One young woman even started clapping.

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

Abdul punches back and doesn't take shit. He isn't a weak centrist nothing. People want fighters.

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

New in PN: Ramaswamy discovers that voters have their limits "This is the nature of today’s right-wing bubble, whose residents are not only acculturated to a particular political style — cruel, often hateful — but become convinced it’s the only effective way to do politics, & any other way is weak"

Like father like son

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.

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.

asked if Trump directed him to sue Alaska, Blanche says "I will not talk about communications I have with the president" (So, yes, Trump did)

They have nothing.

wow -- a squirming Mike Rogers gets flustered as Kristen Welker points out that while he attacks El-Sayed over the Muslim Brotherhood, *Rogers himself* defended the Muslim Brotherhood during the same period of time that El-Sayed did!

Are any of Republicans responding to this from their fainting couches today?

BRENNAN: The DOJ lawsuit demands the Alaska result not be certified if voters are confused. The confusion is defined as Sen. Sullivan not winning. BLANCHE: That's not what it says BRENNAN: I'm quoting from it. You are telling them not to certify it. What right does the federal govt have?

Obama: "Imagine the power duo of Abdul and Elissa. You got a Muslim man, a Jewish woman, fighting for you in the US senate. That's something, Michigan, you can be proud of!"

💯

“And then they use their laser guns on them and they go PEW PEW PEW and then the robot fighters come in and“

Obama in Michigan: "He is focused on home renovations. He should be on HGTV! ... He's got the White House looking like Saddam Hussein opened a Cheesecake Factory"

Obama: "You got the defense sec who is like a laser focused on important matters like the jawline & testosterone level of our troops, and livestreaming executions because that's how he thinks you cultivate that manly warrior spirit. How much time do you think this man spends in front of the mirror?"

"In total, since taking office again, Mr. Trump exempted 202 facilities in 39 states & Puerto Rico from clean-air regulations that were going into effect. Some were among the country’s worst industrial polluters, including chemical manufacturers, copper smelters & coal-burning power plants." MAHA!

Elon...

This admission alone is an impeachable offense

Bill Clinton: "I think Congress made a mistake not protesting turning the Rose Garden into what looks like the entrance to Liberace's bathroom"

Alaskans have had enough of the same, tired story – DC politicians selling us out to corporate greed. It’s time for a new one. I’m fighting to pass term limits, ban congressional stock trading, and crack down on illegal price gouging.

Raskin: “Donald Trump, he's now out of the closet. I mean, he's absolutely a collaborator with Vladimir Putin and Erdogan and, you know, the other despots of the world against democracy and human rights.”
