Beatrice Keul, testified that she was introduced by Jeffrey Epstein to Donald J Trump, who then brutally raped her in a hotel room in Atlantic City, NJ, and her claims were deemed credible by a panel of the House Judiciary Committee today. The NYT has decided that this is not reportable news.
🚨 Gov. Josh Shapiro rips into JD Vance in a new interview.
“The only smart thing it seems like [Trump] did was not endorsing Vance.
That guy is just a profoundly and PATHETICALLY WEAK human being who wants to preach morality every day.”
Maybe if the three network newscasts spent as much time covering remarks like these as they do on weather disturbances and footage of riots in Europe it might collectively prompt these guys to tone it down. But why should they? They pay zero political price today.
This report is genuinely overwhelming, in terms of the evidence both against Trump and of a ham-fisted cover-up.
Including one instance in which Ghislaine Maxwell was actually about to mention one of Trump's young accusers and Todd Blanche told her to stop talking.
The media response is "yawn."
Heckled in Mississippi. How the mighty have fallen. 😂

RFK: "There's five hundred million Arabs in the world. And yet they don't produce science. They don't win the Nobel Prize. They don't win the Fields Prize. They don't win the Wolf Prize. They don't produce literature."
The midterms are a week from tomorrow, which (aside from all the voting) can mean only one thing... NBC has started Steve Kornacki on his first IV of Red Bull.
BREAKING: Former FBI Director James Comey charged is with transmission of national defense information and conspiracy, the third case against him by Trump’s DOJ. nbcnews.to/4yKQww1
Vance: "Remember in 2022, when Russia invaded Ukraine and gas prices skyrocketed. They skyrocketed, by the way, far higher than they are today...They skyrocket every time some tin pot dictator decides to throw a tantrum."
House Judiciary Democrats have just released a 50-page report that pulls together years of assault allegations against Trump and his reported connections to Jeffrey Epstein.
The report calls for a special counsel to investigate Trump's ties to Epstein.
Rally speaker: "Mike Rogers is an American. Abdul has a birth certificate. The birth certificate says he's a citizen of America. You know what? a birth certificate doesn't make you an American."
We fought a war over this. 1 of every 30 Americans died. And then we amended the Constitution to add “All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States”

El-Sayed: "My name and my faith are not the reason you can't afford your gas. My name and my faith are not the reason you can't afford your groceries. My name and my faith are not the reason you can't see a doctor."
@sarahlongwell25.bsky.social: "The reason that corruption is breaking through right now is people are suffering economically. And so, with all of Trump's focus on his ballroom, on the reflecting pool—voters are frustrated that he is not focused on them."
Closing #GOP midterms message:
1. All brown people are bad.
2. All white people are good.
3. Raping kids is fine & then that child can’t run for office later.
4. Billionaires need more $.
5. Gas & grocery prices are fine.
6. Trans kids impact your life deeply.
7. Putin is amazeballs.

Lula:
"We had to overcome foreign interference through digital platforms, which we will have to regulate. A crime in the digital world must be treated the same as a crime in the real world.
We cannot have monstrous companies earning millions... not paying taxes... wanting to steer elections."
EL-SAYED: I get that the President takes personal offense to my first name. He doesn't mind as much when it's the Saudis who are funding his son-in-law's private equity. Doesn't seem to mind as much when it's the Qataris who are giving them a $400 million private jet…
Kansas Dem Sen. nominee Adam Hamilton on trans rights:
“I don’t think we should take a small group of people and bully them, pick on them, and hurt them. I understand one thing really clearly when it comes to transgender people, and that is Jesus told me I was to love my neighbor as I love myself”
Everyone who is saying "Dems in red states have to throw trans people under the bus to win" -- no.
They don't.
When they do that, we just start with no winning options on the table. It gives in to the fascist premise that we get to decide some groups don't get rights.
THIS is what I want to see.

It's really important to pay attention to the fact that Lula beat the fascist candidate not by compromising and trying to meet fascist voters in the middle, but by sticking to his guns, promising prosecutions for election interference, and mobilising his own voters to turn out in greater numbers.
“Your task will not be an easy one. Your enemy is well trained, well equipped and battle-hardened. He will fight savagely.
But this is the year 2026! Much has happened since the MAGA triumphs of 2016 and 2024.
The tide has turned! The free men of the world are marching together to Victory!”
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.
look, nothing is simple and i have no parsimonious explanation for anything here, but a student protest movement, focused on corruption & authoritarianism, just won a major european election. a big deal.
Norway: "I didn't get the Nobel Prize so I don't want anybody from Norway. I don't want anything to do with Norway…Frankly, Norway sucks. Norway has become a shithouse country, actually."
Aaron Sorkin wrote it best in “The American President”: “The White House has the single greatest home court advantage in the modern world.”
That is something Trump and his apologetic goons refuse to understand.
The White House doesn’t need to look like a Cheesecake Factory or a gaudy banquet hall.
And it shouldn’t be made to resemble one.
If you can’t feel powerful enough standing in the White House like 42 other men before you, and respect its history and venerate it accordingly, then you are insecure beyond belief. And unfit to occupy it.
Presidents have put their personal touch on the White House in minor ways. What Trump has done to it isn’t merely gilding a lily; it’s destroying its stature in the world as a place of power and respect for American values.
Who can respect anyone who does this to our landmarks?
I will never forget the day my parents took us to the Cheesecake Factory. The awe we felt when they ushered us past the velvet rope to our table, bedecked with cheesecakes of every description. The respect they showed us, despite our dirty coal miner’s fingers, despite not knowing how to use a fork

Trump pushes gutter racism: "The guy in Michigan is pretty bad too -- Mohammed, as I call him ... if you have any question about somebody from that part of the world's name, just call him 'Mohammed,' you'll be right 64% of the time."
Anybody smell that? It's coming from the Meadowlands.
Ah yes... I know that smell. It's a trap game.
#NYJets look ready... to play down to the pathetic Dolphins' level
The best sign I’ve seen yet that the Dems are headed towards a massive midterms win is that all the far-left purity-test “progressives” have again started loudly telling everyone that Democrats are just as bad as Republicans, actually.
