I hate him & his voters

Heckuva job, dopey! FDT. Expect other countries who control straits to follow suit.

You can do the same thing, buying a house and borrowing against it—ha ha, just kidding, normal people get taxed annually on their wealth via property taxes, the "you can't tax wealth, the economy will collapse!" rule applies solely to the super-rich.

This guy is a Kennedy? An ignorant racist. By the way, Naguib Mahfouz, an Egyptian writer, won the 1988 Nobel Prize in Literature.

OMG these fking dorks are trying to get around the statute of limitations by filing a criminal information against Comey instead of an indictment www.courtlistener.com/docket/75021...

A serial rapist was elected twice as President, a fact we don't reckon with nearly enough. Now one of two major political parties has been molded in his image, run for and by violent sexual abusers who hate women.

I'm going to say this for probably the 20th time now .... Comey was an Original Classification Authority at the time he allegedly disseminated the national defense information at issue here. Assuming it was FBI information, he had the authority to declassify it at his discretion.

BREAKING: Another immigrant has died in ICE custody, the 28th death in ICE detention in 2026.

In case facts still matter

It’s peak Trumpism when Republicans blow up a school full of Iranian Muslim girls and then call an American politician a terrorist because he’s Muslim.

Judge Furman rules that Maureen Comey's firing violated separation of powers. Orders backpay. Govt's arguments violate 2 centuries of SCOTUS rulings & would "unsettle the equilibrium established by this Nation's constitutional system." storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

NEW: Maricopa County will restore 25 voters’ registrations after they were falsely flagged as noncitizens, Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes (D) announced. Mayes sued Maricopa County Recorder Justin Heap (R) Thursday, demanding that he add the voters back to the registration rolls.

that is, effectively, the logical endpoint of unitary executive theory

"AI model Claude bypassed a paywall ​and accessed publicly available US ‌state of Georgia aggregate voter counts without human authorization, Anthropic said in a ​statement on Sunday."

It’s really not that hard to say this!

conservatives in washington state want freedom and small government in the form of state-mandated genital exams for high school students: www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Small-dollar donations to Republican candidates are just apocalyptic. Selected examples here. Our forecasting research found in-state individual contributions are a strong predictor of results. Way stronger than PAC spending! votehub.com/2026/10/24/2...

Here's what the "confusing" ballot looks like:

The President gives completely incoherent talks and the GOP and most of the media pretend this is normal.

The game-ending call on Yandy Diaz's checked swing wasn't right, nor was it wrong, because ... there is no rule. Seriously.

Elizabeth Warren Is On A Roll.......

If you haven't seen a Check Swing Challenge before in the Florida State League, here's a successful version:

Apparently, some Houston voters are putting their I Voted stickers on the Lorenzo Salgado Araujo memorial. Stephen Miller is ALREADY trying to scapegoat others for losing whatever races they lose in Texas and elsewhere. This is a vivid testament that for some voters, his murder squad is the reason.

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

This is why it's dangerous to give rich people so much power over our lives. Sometimes, they are appallingly ignorant. The Nazis added the word "socialist" to their name purely as propaganda to appeal more to workers. But the party--and Hitler--hated real socialists and communists.

If Amy Acton was a good daughter, she would have teamed up with her mother to get rich off an Alzheimer’s drug they knew wouldn’t work. by Vivek and Geetha Ramaswamy

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."

Make Racism Wrong Again.

The Republican Party has all the values and tactics of a white supremacist prison gang and maybe it's time to stop normalizing them as if they were a modern functioning political party

This man was dead weight, hanging high above the ground after touching a high-voltage line. His coworker climbed up, held him in place, gave him mouth-to-mouth. Randall Champion survived—and lived another 35 years. Rocco Morabito’s photo, “The Kiss of Life,” won the Pulitzer Prize. True heroism.

When first reported, 2025’s jobs reports added up to 1.2 million new jobs. After revisions, the economy added just 116,000 — 90% less.

🧵🧵🧵 10 ways the planet’s richest person, Elon Musk, has been busy making the world worse. A thread. 1. Buying crooked politicians like Ken Paxton.

3. It’s hard to pick just one example. Luckily, the AP sent one. This morning, the White House wants me to believe First Lady Melania Trump “brokered an upcoming ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine in the war-ravaged city of Oleshky.” apnews.com/article/russ...

22. Donald Trump is exhausting us with stupidity, but fortunately, there are signs that his moment is exhausting itself. Two years in and no president has been more unpopular than he is. Another two years and it might be virtually taboo to admit voting for him.

19. We are told the president has ushered in a new era of manly virtue, despite that he applies spray tanning, dyes his hair, wears heel lifts to make himself look taller, falls asleep during Cabinet meetings, and is perhaps the vainest man who has ever lived.

15. That was before toadying up to a Chinese imperialist who is also helping Iran kill Americans. Last time I checked, "patriotic" did not mean "treasonous." www.cnn.com/2026/09/25/p...

14. The stupidity is endless. We are told the president is a patriotic American, then he sucks up to America's enemies. Worse, last week, he switched sides, joining a Russian imperialist who is helping Iran kill Americans. www.cbsnews.com/news/russia-...

13. We deserve to know what they are with sustained coverage in granular detail, but there is nary a peep from the press corps. The AP is willing to repeat word-for-word that Melania Trump negotiated "a localized ceasefire," but not report why Donald Trump is bleating like a sheep.

1. I am very tired of being asked to be stupid. I know that is not the most important thing right now. There are many more serious consequences to electing a criminal president who is burning up the economy.

Small dick energy.

Today, the Fifth Circuit stripped immigrants facing detention in Texas, Louisiana, and Mississippi of their right to due process. People who have lived in our communities for years, even decades, can now be locked away with no chance to see a judge or ask for bond.

Ukraine losing access to Starshield raises serious concerns for our national security—like who controls critical capabilities the U.S. government has spent billions to procure & how decisions to restrict them are made. I'm demanding answers from the Department of Defense & SpaceX

Remember, Republicans made George Soros an international boogeyman when he was giving Democrats a *tenth* of this Now... {crickets}

This administration and Hegseth have abandoned our troops. We need to conduct oversight and ensure that our servicemembers have the support and resources they need. Hegseth should resign.
