Every time I remember this I want a Trump supporter to suffer!! 🤬

CA voters. Vote yes on 40. No on 41 and 42. Enough is enough. In more ways than one.

The question is: Why did Trump derail peace talks?

In 2020, Jared Kushner was senior advisor to the president of the United States, a full-time employee of the United States government, and was subject to numerous disclosure requirements and ethical restrictions under the Ethics in Government Act of 1978.

Gift (partial excerpt from the book) www.vanityfair.com/story/jared-... Criminal if true. And all too believable. Looks like they have the receipts. State money laundering laws should apply — and avoid any Trump pardon. The states should get started today.

Four brothers went to war against Hitler. Three were killed. The fourth survived, and his grandson, Volodymyr Zelenskyy, is the president of Ukraine. Zelensky comes from a family that fought tyrants: Trump negotiates with them while demanding concessions from their victims.

Trump’s approval rating is sinking towards 30%. But in this Moscow diner, that number feels much higher.

He has my vote!

Yet another impeachable offense ? Maybe the easiest and quickest one to use. No further evidence necessary. And how does the GOP vote against this? Attempted bribery to stay in power = “high crime” as required in the Constitution for impeachment. Easy peasy.

The largest donor in the history of the GOP uses his massive social media platform to promote far-right, eliminationist, pro-Putin, and sometimes even pro-Hitler propaganda. Now here's another article about how Democrats must distance themselves from Hasan Piker.

The “we’re winning” section has entered its hospice phase.

Trump’s going for the full scare tactic now. Everyone would have healthcare!!

Nate Silver trying to win back our love? Don't listen. Go vote!!! Now if possible. And bring along a friend or two. Especially in Michigan, Iowa, Kansas, Florida, North and South Carolina, New Hampshire, Maine, Arkansas, Alaska, Texas ... Please.

Love this for him. But I think I will pass. More nachos please.

“I’ve not once seen evidence that Donald Trump has enriched himself.” 🤡 🙃 V.P. JD Vance hilariously makes a bonfire of his own credibility again on national TV 🔥

Vote YES on CA 40 — and no on 41 and 42. That’s Sergey Brin the leading opponent of 40 (and, I assume, the leading funder of 41 and 42) sitting next to Trump last night. That may be all you need to know about the outsized wealth and power of billionaires now.

We are being robbed. Of our homes, our healthcare, our retirements, our recreation, our very futures. They lay off 1,000s and use the saving to buy back stocks. Aren't you tired of these thieves taking money out of your pockets?

Clear eyes, full hearts, can’t lose.

VOTE the GOP out of every office possible — including in Maine, Kansas, Iowa, Alaska, Texas, North Carolina, South Carolina, Ohio, Florida …

Russia was never a hoax

Another great human banner on SF's Ocean Beach for No Kings 🗳️

California’s billionaires have a combined net worth of $2.4 trillion. Under Prop 40, their net worth would fall to…just under $2.3 trillion. What amounts to a rounding error for them would allow millions of their fellow Californians to afford healthcare. Vote yes on Prop 40.

She is daddy’s dream.

If true (and it sure feels like it is) this explains a lot. Carrot (Russian real estate and energy deals, plus Russian help in US elections), and Stick (videos?)

Trump Signs Order Exempting Russia From Sanctions Law www.nytimes.com/2026/10/16/u... ““Trump’s latest surrender to Putin again betrays our Ukrainian partners and defies clear congressional intent of legislation designed to punish Russia for its illegal war of aggression,”

This Is the Kill Zone www.nytimes.com/interactive/... Gift. This war — even before Trump betrayed Ukraine — has been insane. Now it is pure hell. I doubt Hegseth and his gang are smart enough to draw the correct lessons for our own troops. They will likely one day face the same hell.

This should not have had to have happened. But it is indeed awesome. The young may save us yet.

Ultra-wealthy donors are spending a staggering $430 million to fight state efforts to raise their taxes. If they can afford to drop millions of dollars to keep their taxes low, they can afford to pay slightly higher taxes. They’re making the case for taxing the rich better than anyone else could.

Gift www.nytimes.com/2026/10/16/u... An unhinged, dangerous trillionaire funding the most corrupt politician in America. This is one reason why CA should pass prop 40, and regject props 41 and 42 -- as an example to the rest of the country.

Bernie's Right, Tax The Billionaires

I am still with you, Sir.

It does seem like Putin is rushing fo get the most possible out of his client Trump before the electoral bloodbath of 3 November.

podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t... Kinda awesome. Funny yet deeply troubling. My guess is that after the midterms the new White House press secretary will last maybe a week. Or Susie Wiles will quit. Or both.

🚜👩‍🌾 Spotted in Iowa, but makes just as much sense in Tennessee 15 years of one-party Republican control has made the rich even richer, but screwed over everyone else. Rotate the crops!

Let's Try Bernie's Way.......

Thirty years ago, Susan Collins promised Maine voters she’d serve only two terms. Now she’s a multimillionaire asking them for a sixth. Her current net worth is estimated to be roughly $6.8 million. Not bad for a Senate salary of $174,000 per year.

Not one single major US network is reporting about this. #25thAmendment www.euronews.com/2026/10/14/t...

He needs to go.

(1/X) Yesterday, Trump posted a snuff video of a man being killed by a tiger and cut off Ukraine's access to Starlink. If a Democratic president had at any point done either of those things, there would have been big political blowback. For Trump, there will be none, zero, nada....

(2/X) There's a complex set of reasons for this. Our media has been conditioned to pull its punches on Republican presidents. And the GOP itself has been cultish for a long time (e.g. "George Bush is a genius"). Narcissists have an eye for how to exploit situations like this..

RepubliKKKan Hypocrites.......
