“No F-cking Shame”: GOP Candidate Mocks Larger People at Water Parks meidasnews.com/news/no-f-ck...

🚨 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.

Bill Clinton: "I think Congress made a mistake not protesting turning the Rose Garden into what looks like the entrance to Liberace's bathroom"

NEW: GOP city councilwoman Shellie Flockhart called Iowa Dem House candidate Sarah Trone Garriott “dangerous” for kids in an attack ad. Flockhart pled guilty to driving drunk with her kids in the car in 2017. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

I've worked w/ state AGs for years & have never seen them this prepared to fight election sabotage Trump is up against an unprecedented legal wall—and all of you More from the front lines, in this week's publisher's note 👇 -TN

Welcome to a “Seeing ain’t believing” edition of the MAGA Minute! Today, Trump celebrates progress on fixing the reflecting pool by sharing a photo of it…taken before the botched pool guy renovations… He’s all wet. #RadioFreeAmerica #politics

Democrats should really feature these creeps their extensive ties to this administration.

Extorting Marines with cancer to own the libs.

Total respect for NBC's Monica Alba, who asked Trump exactly the question he needs to answer. By refusing to answer, and attacking her, he has effectively told the world that no, sexual abuse allegations do no mean a thing to him. Imagine if she wasn't there. We'd be the poorer for it.

Oh you don’t say www.texastribune.org/2026/10/23/k...

We need to crush these people to restore a basic sense that moral behavior actually means anything at all. That is what is at stake here.

NEW from me: Beth Fuller was a 10-year CDC contractor when she was DOGE'd last year by Trump + Elon Musk, a mass layoff process cheered by the GOP. Now she's a candidate in a key swing district that could end the GOP’s decades-long grip on total power in Georgia. www.huffpost.com/entry/beth-f...

I would love for dems to tell us the game plan if the Trump administration tries to steal ballots

🚨 EXCLUSIVE: MeidasTouch obtained NEVER-BEFORE-SEEN photos and videos revealing devastating damage to U.S. bases from Trump's Iran war. Troops and military families describe being abandoned by their own government. “It’s so much worse than people realize.”

Q: Who have you voted for in the past? Voter: I’ve voted for Donald Trump, I’ve voted for Greg Abbott. Republican my whole life. Q: So why are you switching teams? Voter: I am seeing what we need. This is what America needs. This is what Texas needs. We need someone like James Talarico.

As someone who publicly came out against Trump 8yrs ago, and ended my career as a Republican by doing so, and have endured hate & threats from the MAGA base these past 8yrs, I have zero sympathy for, and utter disdain for, all 3 of these groups of cowardly former Republican colleagues of mine.👇

Given the news that Meta throttled Lula in Brazil and stories like this one below every Dem state legislature should open an investigation into whether the platforms have attempted to influence elections in their states.

A federal judge has threatened to sanction Trump for failing to sit for a deposition in the $10 billion lawsuit he filed against the BBC.

Russia is cooperating with Iran. So why is Trump cooperating with Russia? Like the diesel deal, this decision is a gift to the very forces attacking our service members.

A federal court just told Trump he cannot force NYC to cooperate with federal immigration authorities. Sanctuary cities like New York can refuse to use their own resources to enforce immigration laws. Why this order is a huge rebuke against the lawlessness of this Regime: youtu.be/-F6cfX6OaOE?...

Elon Musk is single-handedly funding the Ken Paxton campaign:

📌BREAKING NEWS FOR THE IDIOTS IN MSM: The Trump agenda has not been a failure. He has troops & masked gunmen in our streets, has surrendered to Putin, wrecked our govt., spent lavishly on himself & made his family hundreds of millions of dollars. That was ALWAYS his agenda. Try reporting THAT.

👀

WASHINGTON (AP) — FBI employees fired for their roles in the investigation of President Trump’s retention of classified documents at his Florida estate sued on Thursday to get their jobs back, calling their terminations unlawful acts of “political retribution.”

Update from the originator of the James Talarico mental health facility hoax.

NEW: Ex-Congressman Matt Gaetz sued in federal court in Florida for his alleged role in a sex trafficking scheme involving young women, drugs, and traveling across state lines to obtain commercial sex acts from these young women.

October 17 is a nationwide NO KINGS day of action ahead of the midterms. There are rallies taking place all over the country to promote early voting and make sure every eligible voter has a plan, knows their options, and is ready to make their voice count. Find an event: https://www.nokings.org/

Trump had people arrested to cover up his incompetence. An impeachable offense for any other president. For Trump, probably just about the 17th worst thing he did that week.

BREAKING: A complaint has been filed with the California Bar against White House Press Secretary Katie Zacharia, citing Popular Information’s reporting, for “the Unauthorized Practice of Law and for Holding Herself Out as Entitled to Practice Law.”

As Trump praises Putin and pursues a Russian diesel deal, NATO's top military commander travels to Poland with an urgent warning: “If attacked, we are ready to fight tonight.” Ben Meiselas breaks down the extraordinary contrast between Trump's rhetoric and the general's message to Europe.

UPDATE on Trump’s violation of a court order to stop airing taxpayer-funded campaign-style tv ads: the Govt’s excuse - "our lawyers accidentally missed the email.” It's beyond time for contempt in all cases where the Trump Regime is giving the middle finger to the courts. youtu.be/2pg_33uqafs?...

BREAKING: TRO granted! Court has halted the Trump admin tree removal at E. Potomac Golf Links, where we are contesting the dumping of toxic East Wing debris & creation of a hideous Trump golf course Huge win for clients & cocounsel Democracy Forward, Lowell & Assoc, & us at Democracy Defenders

Start the clocks

😬 Katie Zacharia's first press briefing was brutally bad 😬 Trump managed to find a press secretary who can barely read, but she does have the number one qualification -- looking like Ivanka Here's a supercut from Zacharia's first briefing, which made Karoline Leavitt seem like Ronald Reagan

OMG she is brutally bad at this

Trump just fell for a FAKE Denzel Washington endorsement, sharing a fabricated quote claiming the Oscar-winning actor called him the smartest and bravest person he’d ever met. Even more embarrassing? The exact same fake endorsement has been attributed to Matthew McConaughey and Mick Jagger.

Another MAGA “citizen journalist” hoax debunked. Next.

Logs from the Texas Department of Public Safety security detail assigned to Attorney General Ken Paxton show multiple out-of-state trips while he was suspended from office in 2023. @zachdespart.bsky.social goes deep on the cost of Ken Paxton’s security detail www.propublica.org/article/ken-...

Saying the quiet part aloud. Very loudly

Yikes… local Georgia outlets in the tank fudging the graphs for @ossoff.bsky.social opponent Mike Collins🤔 (and Scoob-Doo😬)

1. NEW An incredible, but not surprising, story in the Wall Street Journal about Kimberly Guilfoyle, US Ambassador to Greece.

Amen @BiatchDulce. And if this Trump era has taught us anything it’s that we need stronger constitutional safeguards to prevent another horribly bad, corrupt, cruel, lawless, authoritarian from fucking with our democracy, separation of powers, and the rule of law.👇

🚨BREAKING: The Montana Supreme Court struck down key GOP restrictions on citizen ballot initiatives. The unanimous ruling is a major win for direct democracy — and a powerful check on the Legislature’s ability to interfere with the people’s lawmaking power.

Something unprecedented happened during my visit to the Gulf. For the first time in 20 years in Congress, I was denied entry to U.S. military facilities and even meetings with military leaders. An order from Hegseth - that applies to both parties - to hide the cost of the war.

You can reasonably dispute the meaning of a lot Trump says because he’s so incoherent and inarticulate. But what you can’t reasonably dispute is that he is a sadistic and delusional narcissistic sociopath, at once both psychopathic and psychotic ...
