I’m not a political journalist, so was gladly surprised at the community I found here last night. To Americans anxious about the upcoming elections, a key thing we learned in Brazil that might help you: DO NOT engage with the far-right online. Don’t share rage bait. Amplify your people. Ignore them.

Not a big story, it's just the Attorney General working with an imprisoned pedophile to help cover up the pedophile President's crimes conducted with his best friend for 15 years, a pedophile who the President sent, as a birthday card, a drawing of a naked adolescent girl.
This report is genuinely overwhelming, in terms of the evidence both against Trump and of a ham-fisted cover-up. Including one instance in which Ghislaine Maxwell was actually about to mention one of Trump's young accusers and Todd Blanche told her to stop talking. The media response is "yawn."

BBC's Highly respected Panaroma, Investigative Journalist report (2017), not shown in the USA. Describes coke fuelled parties in the 90's with 4 old men and 40 girls aged 14 and up. Donald bragged about screwing 2 at a time, the morning after, to his 'friends'. www.youtube.com/watch?v=sB0I...

A new survey of 1,000 American adults found that the strongest supporters of transgender sports bans are not the people who admire women most: they are the people who hold the most hostile views about women. www.helenwebberley.com/news/transge...

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: www.newsfromthestates.com/article/colo...

WHISKEY TANGO FOXTROT @tcmtv.bsky.social! Why did you cut @eddiemuller.bsky.social from tonight’s Noir Alley? #NoirAlley #TCMParty #TheHouseOnTelegraphHill
Pro tip for nosey snoopers: you don’t need to steal a newspaper clipping from a scrapbook. You can just check the newspaper archives now that you know the article title and date. In those pre-internet days you have to go to the public library, no biggie. #NoirAlley #TheHouseOnTelegraphHill #TCMparty

This is garbage. It's very easy to say: "My opponent is a creep who wants to inspect your children's genitalia. I think government should mind its own fucking business." Makes me sick that Turek doesn't have the guts or the interest in fighting for the underdogs here.
Josh Turek of Iowa, Democrat, comes out with one of the worst anti-trans ads yet. Not only is it an anti-sports ad, it proposes a ban on federal funding for gender affirming care. That would hit all medicaid and medicare patients, and any ACA federally-subsidized plans as well. Horrific.

About 2 million kids have lost SNAP since deep cuts were enacted last year. The ripple effects: Kids losing SNAP also lose automatic enrollment for free meals at school. And as more kids lose SNAP, their schools may be forced to drop Community Eligibility.

Speaking of German expressionism. #TCMParty
In 1975, director William Friedkin conducted a lengthy interview with the legendary German-American filmmaker Fritz Lang. Lang’s recount of his 1933 meeting with NAZI Minister of Propaganda Joseph Goebbels begins at 30:40, it’s absolutely riveting. #Filmsky youtu.be/gLxozC7Ioug?...
