From Britain to Asia, the Trump rape story is headline news, but not at either the NY Times or the Washington Post

There's no ACIP in the US right now -- and there won't be for the foreseeable future because RFK Jr isn't reconstituting the group. That is already having consequences for new vaccines, which don't have ACIP recommendations. My latest: www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

Big Oil profits have skyrocketed since Trump launched his Iran War. Meanwhile, Trump himself owns up to $81 million in oil and gas stocks — which have increased in value by 43% since the end of 2025. When Trump says "we're making a freaking fortune," understand who he is really talking about.

Trump tried to DEFEND Vivek's terrible ad against Amy Acton, but this reporter WASN'T HAVING IT.

Former presidents are just roasting the hell out of the White House redo today and it’s going to drive Trump absolutely insane

Remember when I told you that the trigger for the screaming reactionary backlash wasn’t e.g. public anger over Black Lives Matter: it was the personal terror of a bunch of rich arse-grabbers, watching Harvey Weinstein get dragged to jail unprotected by his wealth

Hey locals, The 44 Live music bar in Glendale is hosting this white supremacist South African band, The Soap Girls, next month. Maybe let them know how you feel about all that.

We are sensing a pattern

Republican Senator John Cornyn of Texas calls to investigate Republican President Trump's Aid and Comfort to Russia/Putin. Zelensky confirmed Starlink continues to disconnect above 161km/h - Ukraine can't intercept Russian drones, and tests outside Ukraine border show the sabotage is willful.

URGENT: Our No Kings Coalition Instagram has been taken down. At about 1:30 PM ET, Meta froze the main No Kings Coalition Instagram account. This happened at the peak of our national day of action. We need your help to spread the word. Tell them to RESTORE the account. #NoKings #NoKingsVoteEarly

❗❗❗Mark Zuckerberg's meta just suspended the No Kings Instagram account. I just rushed back from my local No Kings to jump on this. Bottom line, would be helpful for all pro-No Kings folks to elevate the issue and help us get the word out about No Kings today. The Nerd Reich strikes again.

This is awesome. If your vote didn’t matter Republicans wouldn’t be trying so hard to stop you.

Officials warn the framework could dry up the Central Arizona Project, which serves nearly 6 million people story via @caitlinsievers.bsky.social

Republican politicians are *obsessed* with schoolchildren coming home a different gender because of pro-trans teachers, WHICH NEVER HAPPENS. But they are completely indifferent to schoolchildren not coming home *at all* because of guns, WHICH HAPPENS ALL THE TIME!

A report from congressional Democrats found that President Donald Trump's pharmaceutical stock holdings grew from a maximum reported value of $1.7 million in 2024 to as much as $56.2 million at the end of 2025. https://to.pbs.org/4hSpEoz

NEW: The women were victims of domestic abuse. That’s what they told police officers, attorneys and anyone who would listen. It didn’t matter. They were all taken to an immigration detention center.

GOTTDAMN

The same people warning about “sharia law” are the ones demanding live streamed executions, book bans, baring journalists from the White House, eroding women’s rights, rounding up people in our streets, and legislating the Bible in schools, all in the name of “Christianity.”

Harris County TX. He's hospitalized: "ICE claimed the man ran in front of the agents' vehicle and was struck. However, the surveillance video appears to show the SUV veering left through empty parking spaces before running the man over..." abc7.com/story/ice-ru...

This is how the new CBS keeps people from remembering that the longest serving GOP Speaker of the House ultimately went to jail for covering up child rape. Which is apparently always in season.

Such a moving book, and hits particularly hard right now. Loved it and can’t wait to see what he does next.

Not “just,” in 2022, after Shinzo Abe’s assassination. But still worth talking about!

NEW: Tohono O'odham Nation leadership issued a release announcing that they’ve filed an emergency injunction after been informed by CBP that “it intends to remove thousands of Saguaros and other vegetation,” on sovereign tribal lands. The destruction is set to begin on Indigenous Peoples Day.

This is how our government has been corrupted: 1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians 2) Elected officials rewrite rules in donors' favor 3) Donors make huge gains 4) Repeat This is why we must get Big Money out of politics — and support the candidates who will fix the system.

This poem speaks of the intersection between race & gender. How a lack of role models can place self-limits on one’s aspirations But there is resilience and self-reliance too – not as a romantic notion, but a necessity ‘a bridge between starshine and clay’ #poetry #poemoftheday #blackhistorymonth

Back in ‘22 in Minneapolis I had the pleasure of opening for Ird Al Yanko. I did half an hour. Oct 7 thru 10 I’ll be at the Acme Comedy Company doing an hour. It’ll feel strange talking twice as slowly.

Trump: "I could've done very bad things to Hillary Clinton. I could've done very very bad things to Joe Biden. I could've done very bad things to Barack Hussein Obama ... I can do whatever I want, if I want."

Trump’s sons have recently invested in dozens of defense companies. Those companies have now raked in a staggering $6 BILLION in current or future government contracts. Corruption? Or coincidence? You be the judge.

Need more reasons not to vote for this guy? 👇

Trump shouts out Russ Vought and then says, ominously, "we have some big surprises coming up in a few weeks, right Russ? He's gonna be one of the important people in the history of our country."

Thank you for coming forward. We need more voices from inside the uniform standing shoulder-to-shoulder with us to reject this extremism, protect our democratic norms, and demand accountability.

Alarming — 🇺🇸 Senator @chrismurphyct.bsky.social denied access to military facilities in the Middle East: “Unprecedented. Hegseth is trying to cover up the extent of the damage from a war spiraling out of control. This should be unacceptable to everybody, Republican or Democrat.”

The alarmists have yet to be wrong 😕🇺🇸
