Torment myself to catch the American crown: & from that torment I will free myself, Or hew my way out with a bloody axe & a rusty chainsaw. Why, I can smile, and murder whiles I smile, & cry 'Content' to that which grieves my heart, & wet my cheeks with artificial tears, & frame my face...

From Zelenskyy. Patriot interceptors that could save innocent lives are sitting in European countries for weeks, which they paid for, unable to be transferred to Ukraine because Hegseth refuses to sign off.

Nobody should have this much power

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?

Not even a concept of a plan

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

ICE assaulted a US citizen, dragging him from his vehicle in front of his family and one-year-old daughter who were also inside the car in Donna Texas on Thursday morning.

JUST POSTED: A Russian energy giant has secretly moved to acquire a position in a massive Alaska gas project. Its part of talks between Witkoff/Kushner & Putin. But CEO of US company resigns after learning of Russian money in the project. A wowzer of a story. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/23/u...

😳 WOMAN REPORTER: Do sexual abuse allegations mean nothing to you, sir? TRUMP: Wait. Wait! Wait wait wait. Slow down. Who are you with? REPORTER: NBC, sir. But they are very serious sex abuse allegations TRUMP: Quiet! Isn't she a fresh person? You're a horrible little reporter, aren't you?

Tommy Tuberville pledged in 2020 to donate his Senate salary to Alabama veterans & families. An investigation found no evidence he did. The pledge is worth roughly $1 million. Asked about it, he had staff remove him, then called the media socialists and communists. www.huffpost.com/entry/tommy-...

Solid metaphor for the entire administration, honestly

Didn’t he promise money to farmers yesterday?

The pedo party

My next door neighbor is a teacher. She works hard, works after school. We live in a community with lots of resources, she still buys more supplies. Teachers are tired. They want kids to read and be good people. They want to be able to use the bathroom, to be paid a fair salary, treated decently

Trump is headed to Kansas because he knows farmers are pissed off. I think that is wonderful. He should go campaign EVERYWHERE people are pissed off. He makes them even angrier, and far more likely to vote out Republicans when he does…because he is stupid.

If you’re unclear Amanpour’s exit from CNN after 43 years has to do with the Ellison takeover and her coverage of Israel/Gaza you’re not paying attention. Fascism is taking hold in 🇺🇸, as the Trump-friendly pro-Israel oligarchs buy up the outlets.

Still nothing.

“Trump and Putin have teamed up to murder Ukrainians” is a better headline. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

When people tell me they “don’t do politics,” I get it. It’s not pretty and it can be totally exhausting. But here’s the thing: billionaires and giant corporations are certainly doing politics — and they’re going to keep doing it regardless of how you feel.
