🚨 BREAKING: Lula is projected to WIN reelection as president of Brazil, defeating Flávio Bolsonaro, son of former President Jair Bolsonaro and an ally of Donald Trump. The projection comes just ONE DAY after Reuters exposed a Trump administration effort to help return the Bolsonaro family to power.

BRENNAN: The DOJ lawsuit demands the Alaska result not be certified if voters are confused. The confusion is defined as Sen. Sullivan not winning. BLANCHE: That's not what it says BRENNAN: I'm quoting from it. You are telling them not to certify it. What right does the federal govt have?

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.

When Trump urged Ramaswamy to keep running the vile attack ad featuring Amy Acton’s estranged mother, the message to survivors of sexual abuse was unmistakable. Her mother defended Acton’s stepfather after he was accused of raping her starting at 9 years old, and lost custody of Acton & her brother.

ms.nowOpinion | What Trump and Vance are really amplifying by praising Ramaswamy's attack adBy broadcasting Acton’s mother’s words, the ad risks reinforcing precisely the fear and misplaced guilt that doctors like me work so hard to heal.

Elon Musk has spent over $400 million to boost Republicans ahead of the 2026 midterms. That dwarfs the $290 million he spent in 2024. But this time around, Republicans aren’t putting him center stage. Why?

They had to kick up the cash to the boss to get out of the doghouse after they got called out making bank on their side gig during the midterms by Trump. The Republican Party operates like the Sopranos.

Trump on the Iowa Senate race: "I don't even understand why they are having the election, to be honest with you"

I desperately want a blue wave, but I’m nervous. A narcissist who has their ego crushed by a loss will inevitably lash out. If Trump can’t win by cheating, he will try to win through violence. The real question is not how far he will go, but how far the American people will let him go.

This is exactly why we need a constitutional amendment limiting the president’s pardon power that includes a hard ban on self-pardons. That goes for all presidents, regardless of political party.

This is going to become important soon.

This fake Christian grifter funnels off over $700,000 from just *one* of his many "charities." And he pays no taxes--because he's a "Christian" who doesn't delve into politics. TAX THE CHURCHES.

A corrupt grifter who contributes absolutely nothing to human civilization and is just a leech trading upon her associations with equally corrupt people to enrich herself while selling out the American people. Vacuous, vapid, immoral, unethical & gross. The MAGA brand personified.

Pretend cops. Real pain.

Rep. Jimmy Gomez@gomez.house.gov

He was a Long Beach city employee for almost a decade and has no reported criminal record, but none of that mattered to Trump’s ICE agents. In Trump’s America, if you simply look like Ricardo, if you look like me, they’ll arrest you and throw you to the ground.

Trump has a new scheme to bribe farmers in swing states with welfare checks of taxpayer money because fuel has gone up so much because of his war. But only money for them, not for anyone else in the country. No, we have to keep paying higher prices AND we pay Trump’s voters.

The United States is actively helping Putin murder civilians in Ukraine. Trump is doing everything he can to force Ukraine to surrender to his friend and ally Putin so they can be subjugated by the Russians again.

Ultra-wealthy donors are spending a staggering $430 million to fight state efforts to raise their taxes. If they can afford to drop millions of dollars to keep their taxes low, they can afford to pay slightly higher taxes. They’re making the case for taxing the rich better than anyone else could.

Zelensky smiled when asked by Sky News whether Trump was trying to make him a “scapegoat” for problems including low ratings, high diesel prices and the war in the Middle East. Zelenskyy initially stayed silent, then said: “That is my answer.” #Ukraine

Trump wants to make sure it’s as easy as possible for his friend Putin to bomb apartment buildings and kill children. He’s not just the worst president in history, he’s the most evil person to ever serve at the highest level of government. Vote out his weak Republican enablers.

Donald Trump is notorious for suing people for defamation. And yet he has never sued anyone for defamation who accused him of being a pedophile. Trump is notorious for never letting go of a grudge. And yet he never mentions the men who supposedly tried to assassinate him. He'll never admit why.

Trump is a coward. Zelensky is a warrior. Trump is a pathological liar. Zelensky is a truth teller. Trump is a scoundrel. Zelensky is a hero. Trump kisses Putin’s ass. Zelensky is kicking Putin’s ass. Trump is a traitor to the free world. Zelensky is defending the free world.

All Republicans have to offer voters in the midterms is failure, lies, corruption, cover ups, fear mongering, name calling, enrichment of oligarchs, christian nationalism, racism, data centers everywhere, flock cameras, higher prices, new wars and fake bribes. Hell of a platform.

At a time when the most influential leaders of the U.S. need to stand up loudly and clearly for the rule of law, they are leading the charge in the opposite direction. But not Jack Smith. Kudos to him for continuing to be a much needed voice of clarity.

All Trump’s malevolence and psychosis will be on full display right after the midterms. We’ve been here before in Nov 2020, and here we go again. The national nightmare of Trump refusing to accept defeat and dragging the country through lies, conspiracies and drama begins again.
