Post and playlist ready for the big day. … just died. Good, I’m glad he’s dead. Now he can no longer hurt innocent people!

NEW: The group behind Cornel West's 2024 ballot push was wholly funded through Elon Musk's dark money network, according to Sludge's review of tax documents. readsludge.com/2026/10/26/m...

Both Czarist and Soviet history teaches that battlefield defeat, not diplomatic victory, cools Moscow’s foreign adventurism and turns Russian attention inward; economic hardship, not commercial success, does the same.  www.thelowdownblog.com/2026/10/why-...

Krugman is a liberal economist but even still 10 years ago I couldn't imagine him calling for expropriation and (temporary) nationalization of a major company. What stage of capitalism is this? paulkrugman.substack.com/p/its-time-t...

Leaked audio: Michigan Republican Mike Rogers asking for officers at polling stations to intimidate voters "We called the RNC early and said hey... Let's put police officers, retired or off-duty police officers as our poll watchers in Detroit because go ahead, try to intimidate them. Please."

Trump take Uma

It took massive interventions into the market for this to be the case, part of Trump's scheme to turn American consumers into customers of last resort for otherwise stranded Saudi oil reserves

Trust me: whatever you’re doing right now is less important than watching this candidate interview. No spoilers, just trust:

Patricia from Honduras, taken in Austin right after she dropped her kids at school. ICE moved in & the image tells the whole story. Nothing dramatic, nothing staged. You can see her mind isn’t on the agents or the van: she has is still locked on her children www.reddit.com/r/EyesOnIce/...

This bad boy can fit so many nationalized space companies inside it you wouldn’t believe it

We can pay $20B per year to have the Ukrainians absolutely shred one of our two near-peer adversaries while endangering zero American lives and in doing so save $400B in future procurement and stationing costs in Europe? Sign me up.

More good reasons why Canada needs to ditch Starlink. Really, all Musk-linked business should be banned here, because he clearly wields them like weapons for his own geopolitical ends. A one man rogue-state.

I know a president that has established precedents for buying stakes in companies in distress

Another example of the same mindset is Trump’s attack on benefits for people with Down syndrome who get support from family www.propublica.org/article/trum...

In related news, I'll be starting the Medlock sportsbook. Every line is even money, no vig, max bet $580, both sides mandatory, one visit per six months. It's time to gamble our way to Medicaid for All.

💯"Make Medicare Whole" including vision/dental/hearing & drugs so we won't need to buy separate private supplementary insurance & private drug insurance plans in addition to Original Medicare. Thank you for prioritizing universal healthcare because healthcare is a right.

A lot of rich guys want you to think that the bar on the right is always going to be bigger than the bar on the left.

Additionally, it's an attempt to usurp the power to judge the qualifications of members of the House, which the Constitution vests solely in the House itself. And there's no reason to assume she will be the last member of Congress he goes after like this. It's a direct attack on the legislature.

It matters that she's a member of Congress. This is an extreme escalation. He is attacking a member of the one body with the constitutional power to hold him accountable and check his crimes. And he's doing so trying to gin up a fake basis to strip her of her eligibility to be in Congress.

Found it

Trump: “I hope Iran kills millions of Americans” Trump audience: *Huge cheers* Media: “How Dems need to tone down the rhetoric heading into the midterms”

Seriously 👇

The MAGA army is out in full force today: “That’s not what he said” “Of course he was joking “ “ it’s an election year and so of course you are going to spin it into something that it isn’t.” He could feed them a 💩 sandwich in the middle of the freeway, and they would devour it.

Now imagine some deranged Trump MAGA supporter toook it upon himself to pull a Timothy McVeigh style attack.

If anything of a terrorist nature happens in California before the election, you can bet your ass our criminally corrupt government is behind it. To Hell with Traitor Trump, his accomplices, and anyone MAGA who supports this Project 2025 bullshit.

his LA and SD comments were partly designed to normalize a nuclear attack by an enemy incapable of doing it, so he can nuke them, which is what he wants to do; also partly because we didn’t vote for him so he wants us dead oh if only congress were alive to hear this

People on both sides literally trying to sane wash what he said like we didn’t see it and hear it with our own eyes and ears.

So am I. My meat market buys from Nebraska farmers. Looks like I’ll be shopping for a new meat market. Their beef can rot for all I care. I’m a CA native and I will not support WT Nazi’s cheering for the death of fellow Americans.

This is the reason there's probably no returning to the international standing the US had pre-Trump. It's woken up Americas traditional friends & allies to what Americans themselves are actually like - and they've been shocked. They now know they can't trust the US electorate.

When this country falls into total ruin, on top of its tombstone should be a graven carton of eggs. "Oh god, these eggs cost so much! They used to be $2, and now they're $5! That's why we need to put the crazy imbecile who got a million people killed during a PLAGUE back in charge!

The loss of living memory of the Second World War is absolutely catastrophic

A 10K contribution and a $900 million return. The scale of the graft in Homeland Security is a) off the charts and b) possible because no-one believes they will face any accountability

one thing that has been obvious for a while is this aspect of the authoritarian internationale: they recognize that their allies abroad are not *countries* but *political movements* within foreign countries. time we liberals woke up and recognized this--because it's the truth.

The Plot to Enslave America

"The desire not to be subjected to the (democratic) political power of black people" is basically the core of American reactionary thought, always has been, and what do you know that turns out to make you fascist before long

Overall, the United States has entirely too goddamn many people who legitimately believe The End is Nigh in positions of massive power. We have to fix that.
