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

So readers: We've offered today a small overview of thousands of documents NYT collected as part of reporting for this story--just a tiny fraction shared here What is clear? Documentation matters. Transparency matters Accountability matters. Thanks for reading www.nytimes.com/2026/10/24/c...

This is just pure racism. Republicans objectively are campaigning on little more than bigotry.

Is this the justification/rationale for tech accelerationism??? If the “Antichrist’s arrival is a necessary precursor to the 2d Coming of Christ,” then “[s]hould we even be looking to delay the end of the world? Maybe we shld just accelerate, put the pedal to the floor &… get it all over with…” 1/

Why should we believe the guy who lied about not doing this?

Trump says Alaska’s ballot is illegal because people don’t know what “incumbent” means

Trump says he "certainly" will do business with Russia after the war ends

Once again, the White House, Musk and the Kremlin all in lock-step that Ukraine must be destroyed.

New in PN: In defense of empathy "Being aware of other people’s feelings, sensitive to them, and able to put yourself in another person’s shoes is pretty much essential for humans to function as a community. But the current conservative project has zero room for that sort of thing."

“He’s got the White House looking like Saddam Hussein opened up a Cheesecake Factory” — Obama

The Trump administration has signed an oil deal with a Venezuelan energy baron who has faced money-laundering investigations in three countries. ProPublica reviewed a copy of the 18-page agreement.

Remember: Wealth cannot be separated from power. We're seeing in real time how the extreme concentration of wealth is distorting our politics, rigging markets, and granting unprecedented power to a handful of people. Taxing the rich isn't just an economic issue, it's a defense of our democracy.

The allegations in the Jared story have a known true core, which was exposed in the (failed) Tom Barrack prosecution none of you know about. The prosecution was a referral from Mueller, but Barr tried to sabotage it, as he did all other referrals in summer 2019. emptywheel.net/2026/10/23/j...

El-Sayed: "We had a little debate. Or I had a debate and he just pointed at me and said, 'He's Muslim.'"

NYT has a great article (by @emmbadger.bsky.social) showing the 1924 vision of two slender, widely-spaced columns that the govt has been citing to argue that Congress *already* approved his Trump's Arch. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/23/u...

They’re not alleging fraud or misconduct. They’re preemptively suing to block certification based on an outcome they haven’t accepted yet. It’s no longer a hypothetical talking point. The Justice Department is officially Trump’s election interference machine.

This is so fucking disgusting. Imagine having a billion dollars and deciding that instead of curing disease you will torture dogs.

Very valuable and very sober analysis www.publicnotice.co/p/trump-puti...

Solid metaphor for the entire administration, honestly

Trump: "Ramaswamy put up a very powerful Ad about a mother saying that her daughter, Acton, is a liar, and much worse. The Press is trying to get him to 'take down the Ad.' Frankly, anybody whose mother spoke about daughter that way would normally lead to the daughter being precluded from serving"

Ukraine was winning the war, so Trump kneecapped Ukraine to help Russia. I wish it weren’t that simple, but it is. Our president is in bed with our enemies.

Ramaswamy has produced an attack ad weaponizing the rape of his opponent, Amy Acton, when she was 12 years old. It features Acton’s mother, who abandoned Acton after she was raped by her step-father, fleeing the state with her husband. Here is the corporate money helping fund that ad.

Musk’s wealth is a threat to democracy—not just in the U.S. but everywhere. He’s probably the greatest threat to the free world today.

Elon Musk threatens Congress.

NEW: On Wednesday, JD Vance, the most prominent Catholic in American politics, defended a $4 million ad that calls a survivor of childhood sexual abuse a liar. He told Republicans to “stop whining” about it.

Ohio Democratic gubernatorial nominee Amy Acton spoke to CNN’s Lauren Fox as backlash grows against her opponent, Vivek Ramaswamy, whose campaign put out a controversial ad featuring her estranged mother. Read more: https://cnn.it/4zNbefC

I do not like this JD Vance I do not like his arrogant stance I do not like his manky beard It makes his eyeliner look really weird I do not like his fancy ties He lies and lies and lies and lies He’s a hollow man in a suit and pants I do not like this JD Vance

988,000 people bought into Trump’s crypto scam. Maybe start there.

My brain cannot process this level of corruption. She was being paid $50 million to engineer a pardon from Trump *while working at the Justice Department* as a "Special Government Employee." And it worked. He got the pardon, and she got the money. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/20/u...

Clueless.

IRS refuses to publish report. Ahead of the midterm elections, the Trump regime is withholding detailed information that illustrates how King Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act hurt millions of Americans. The data from the IRS was originally scheduled to be released in July & updated in September.

We have a crazy situation where if you get a tiny amount of benefits you have to show them your bank accounts to prove you are not scamming the system. But the people with all the power to scam the system, who are, don't have to prove a thing. It needs to change.

Of course Bari Weiss has pushed CBS reporters to pursue the James Talarico was in a mental hospital and Abdul El-Sayed is tied to the Muslim Brotherhoid stories. Of course she has. www.semafor.com/article/10/1...

SCOOP: 'Tommy' from the now-viral exchange with Abdul El-Sayed is Thomas Teepell, a former staffer for Republican Senator Josh Hawley with close ties to Christian Nationalist Sean Feucht. He's the son of a former Bobby Jindal staffer whose consultant work was instrumental in getting Hawley elected.

the second el-sayed chose to treat tommy as an equal and not a nuisance, tommy was cooked

Russia was never a hoax
