Per a new report from House Democrats, Trump's DOJ is withholding evidence of his ties to Epstein and slow-walking the complete release of the Epstein files. It's time to end the cover-up and expose the truth. Remember this when you cast your ballot. www.ms.now/news/house-j...

We warned President Trump and the MAGA Congress against passing the Big Betrayal Bill, knowing it would hurt hospitals in every part of our state. A new report shows Washington's hospitals will lose $6 billion due to their Medicaid cuts. That is devastating to our healthcare system.

Ding ding fucking ding.

You need Kalshi or Polymarket to predict a massive, public trust-destroying scandal in the near future.

This week’s main story is about how more and more white nationalists, antisemites, and Nazi sympathizers seem to be integrating into the Republican Party, how some of them are currently running for office, and how old you can be for JD Vance to consider you “a very young boy.”

don't vote for me or my son ever again

I hope this is accurate.

For two years, student-led protests have raged against Aleksandar Vučić and his corrupt government in Serbia. Today, in parliamentary elections, he was toppled. One of the most sustained protest movements in recent European history has succeeded. Resistance works.

Make your voice heard. #vote ✌️💙

So sweet!

Bolsonaro-friendly mayors appear to be sabotaging public transport on Election Day. Buses aren’t running in Lula-friendly areas, flights and ferries mysteriously canceled. Traffic lights have gone out and people’s power cut in Salvador, indigenous people’s travel restricted

Clocks go back next weekend. Wish they’d take us back to when wages covered rent and Nazis stayed in the history books.

Enormous news. A melanoma vaccine, one of the most deadly cancers out there. Science is good and helpful and there should be more of it. www.washingtonpost.com/health/2026/...

Some 21 percent of Brazilian adults did not cast a ballot in the first round of voting. Will they affect the run-off?

From this

Trump trying to other Abdul El-Sayed on the extremely solid "funny name" basis but Vivek Ramaswamy is okay on the defending child abusers basis.

Today, a judge in New Mexico ordered Meta to pay $25 billion for misleading users on data privacy and a range of other statements that a jury deemed deceptive (and willfully so). Last month I broke down the jury's determinations on each of the questions posed to it:

“He's gunna go up to the Upper Peninsula and get a pretty cold welcome.” And the UP said…

Happy birthday Doris Lessing.

JD Vance greeting Bengals players and most are ignoring him lol

Tommy tried to trap Abdul at a town hall. Turns out Tommy’s tycoon-tied dad Timmy took $250,000 to take Abdul down. Tricky tactics too transparent?

Fascinating that as even as other Republicans who long ago sold their souls to MAGA still have enough baseline political acumen to see how poisonous this is, Vance is completely oblivious. It isn't just that he has no principles, decency, or moral compass, he's also really fucking bad at politics.

🚨⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️🚨

I said that this was a Russian trope at the time in testimony to Congress and am glad to see this excellent documentation of Russia’s use of Vance’s vocal chords.

Here's a not-so-fun fact: It’s not the first time that Ramaswamy has featured the wife of a man charged with sexually exploiting minors in an advertisement.

Elon Musk boosted the lie that James Talarico stayed at a mental hospital. Meta suspended No Kings’ Instagram account during nationwide actions. Staff at the Ellison-owned CBS News were reportedly told to tie Abdul El-Sayed to the Muslim Brotherhood and 9/11. Democracy dies in billionaire hands.

Just going to be straight here — no pun intended: I am the only journalist who has been covering this issue in depth, was often the only journalist at hearings, and was the only one explaining what DOJ was actually arguing here. Support my work if you can: www.lawdork.com/subscribe

Everyone focused on Trump as a net negative for the GOP field in the midterms are sleeping on how awful Vance is for them too.

Happy Birthday, Mr. Petty. We miss you so very much! 💙✌️

"A world in which the White House is allied to the Kremlin was, until now, the stuff of paranoid fiction. Manchurian candidates and red presidents were fantasies, dark tales Americans told themselves like ghost stories... "But this alliance now exists." www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/1...

A good summary here of how much Meta is in the tank for Trump. And a reminder that the authoritarian threat comes not just from within the Trump administration but from its oligarchic allies. Oligarchic power is now a clear and present threat to our democracy. open.substack.com/pub/populari...

Now, Putin has proposed a summit with Trump and Xi to decide Ukraine’s fate for them, bulldoze a century of international cooperation, and frame Russia as an equal to the U.S. and China. We’ll see if Putin’s puppet continues to dance on his strings.

... hampering the country's defenses during a devastating Russian attack; and Trump waived sanctions on Russia that Congress, led by his late friend Lindsey Graham, had pushed for.

A rule announced Friday reverses the Biden administration’s 2024 ban, allowing sport hunters to lure black and brown bears with food. This teaches bears to associate people with food, putting hikers, campers and the bears themselves at risk.
