Legendary musician Neil Young is suing the orange felon for $10M over copyright infringement for continuously using his song “Rockin’ In The Free World” at midterm MAGA Nazi rallies. Good, more artists need to do this.

Vivek Ramaswamy is a disgusting human being Promoting a political ad to retraumatize his opponent who was a victim of sexual abuse when she was a child is pure evil and putrid

Ramaswamy of Ohio doesn’t deserve to be a candidate for ANYTHING let alone Governor. His opponent, Dr. Amy Acton,survived terrible sexual abuse, the court took her away from her birth mother and now Ramaswamy is using her birth mother in an ad. This is beyond disgusting. Go blue Ohio!

Mere seconds after Ramaswamy takes the stage in Columbus, an attendee begins yelling at him for his ad with Amy Acton's mother about childhood abuse

If you think a test for dementia is an IQ test, you have dementia. If you don't realize you have been given a test for dementia because your physician suspects you have dementia, you have dementia. If you think being able to tell a giraffe from a whale makes you a genius . . . you have dementia.

Tonight is my final debate with Susan Collins. I’ve invited her to many town halls during this campaign. She hasn’t shown up to a single one. After 25 years without hosting one herself, “Our Senator” is long overdue to answer to the Mainers living with the consequences of her votes.

Pray for Pope Leo The 71-year-old pontiff just announced he’ll undergo surgery early this week to remove a small nodule discovered in his lung. Doctors caught it at an early stage. He’s expected to spend about a week recovering in the hospital, before hitting the road again in early November.

James Talarico @jamestalarico.bsky.social is simply 1 of the greatest, most inspirational candidates to emerge in years, running against Ken Paxton, one of the most disgracefully corrupt politicians of all-time. So the Texas GOP responds by doing what comes naturally to them, of course: CHEATING! 🤮

Today, on the 250th anniversary of America’s independence, I'm thinking of the words of Maryland's own Thurgood Marshall, “This is your democracy. Make it. Protect it. Pass it on." For 250 years, Americans have answered that call & at this pivotal moment, I know we will again.

After ICE deported Wendy Hernandez Reyes, it turned her 3-year-old son Orlin over to her sister’s estranged partner, who tortured Orlin and beat him to death. I can’t say what I think should happen to those responsible without violating this website’s TOS. www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...

Paul McCartney made his first US television appearance (with the Beatles) on this same stage on February 9, 1964, adding further significance to his being at the Ed Sullivan Theater to celebrate Stephen Colbert.

SEN. @ossoff.senate.gov : “The faithless president depicts himself as Christ while he plunges the nation into wars of choice… Remember — While you pay more for everything, the First Family’s wealth is growing by billions. Because they’re crooks, and everybody knows it.”

Paula White compares Trump to Jesus during event with faith leaders: "You were betrayed and arrested and falsely accused. It's a familiar pattern that our Lord and Savior showed us. Because of His resurrection, you rose up."
