PSA: Since AIPAC stooges are now actively ratfucking Democratic candidates like el-Sayed I will make it my mission to do everything I can to make these AIPAC stooges lose in the general election against Republicans.

I don’t think I’ll ever get out the fact that any one of these mega-wealthy oligarchs could make sure we don’t have a single hungry child or unhoused person in our nation—and yet here we are. 15 million children are hungry and food insecure as I write this.

Vile stuff. Perfectly clear that Robert Kennedy Jr. is a fascist and trying to position himself as Trump’s heir apparent. I just want to take this moment to shout out all the post-left contrarian types who embraced him as some kind of independent voice for truth. Good job, losers.

Besides being nakedly racist and bigoted, this is just hilariously wrong on all levels. I mean, Omar Yaghi won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry last year, and he won the Wolf Prize in 2018. And that's just one example.

i am inviting anyone from a legacy media organization to explain to me why the house judiciary dems report on trump’s epstein’s ties and multiple allegations of rape isn’t worthy of extensively reporting on. i’m serious. i want to understand.

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.

Andy Craig@andycraig.bsky.social

I know there's a lot going on but I feel it should probably be more of an above-the-fold story that members of Congress released a thoroughly documented report directly accusing the president of the United States of being a serial rapist.

I was just out braving the Washington DC suburbs, dodging snipers and Islamic radicals, and finally made it to my polling place to vote early for communism, Sharia law, transgender for everyone, and paper straws. I even wrote in Che Guavera as my local mayor.🤡

Trump on DC: "One of my top people got killed waiting for his wife to come out of an office building, bring her home. And this guy comes up and wants the car and shoots him right through the head. Dead."

That this will barely make national news tells us what a sad state our country is in. Sometimes it seems impossible that we can clean all this muck off of us as a country.

Trump: "Anybody reporting Voter Fraud in the past Elections, or the upcoming 2026 Midterm Election, will be paid $1,000,000 upon the arrest and conviction of those that created the Fraud! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP"

I’d love to see the GOP’s internal polling numbers. It could also be they are sending Trump where he can cause the least damage.

THREAD 5: HON RULE PENDING TAKEDOWN Of all 2024 actions to tighten Clean Air Act, arguably most important was the HON rule, covering giant chemical plants like Indorama Port Neches. When these plants have leaks, they are massive in scale. Consider this 2022 incident at Indorama: 152 hours

Congrats to Lula on overcoming Mark Zuckerberg and Donald Trump to defeat Hospital Pervert Jr., even as his opposition literally blocked off roads and turned off bus service during election day. Fascists are scary but they are always, 100% of the time, ultimately gigantic fucking losers.

He claims here that other states have a law saying "somebody with the same name can't run." That is false. In no state is that the law, and it would be unconstitutional. You can have rules about how the ballot is disambiguated, you can't say nobody else with a similar name is allowed to run at all.

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.

Trump and Musk are just stringing Ukraine along and letting Russia attack it with impunity. And the American press is foolishly falling for blue smoke and mirrors, arguing whether Musk or Trump are responsible. Hint, they both are!

It's the lead story on the Columbus (Ohio) Dispatch. www.dispatch.com/videos/news/... Basically: "Trump doesn't get it, acts like a dick"

Total respect for NBC's Monica Alba, who asked Trump exactly the question he needs to answer. By refusing to answer, and attacking her, he has effectively told the world that no, sexual abuse allegations do no mean a thing to him. Imagine if she wasn't there. We'd be the poorer for it.
