So hard to pick a favorite part of this article. Pretending that sending unsolicited dick pics at 53 was a “youthful indiscretion” is good, but don’t sleep on the argument that his wife forgave him for subjecting other women to unwanted nude photos so everyone else should too

RFK Jr. may not know anything about Arabian literature, but he is certainly familiar with (at least) 40 thieves.

RFK: "There's five hundred million Arabs in the world. And yet they don't produce science. They don't win the Nobel Prize. They don't win the Fields Prize. They don't win the Wolf Prize. They don't produce literature."

“As I reported hours ago, Flávio Bolsonaro has arrived safely in United States. The mastermind behind this operation is U.S. Secretary of State @SecRubio . From the United States, free and safe, Flávio will lead the opposition against Lula.” - Simon Levy … WTF???? 1/

If you don't think Trump is a propaganda genius, consider how the Times refuses to portray this as what it really is: the payoff of the quid pro quo offered in 2016.

The Trump administration is exploring a new concession to Russia: lifting sanctions on the country’s flagship government investment fund, long viewed by U.S. officials as one of the Kremlin’s most powerful tools of international influence. - NYT

I emailed Patrick Healy, assistant managing editor for standards and trust at NYT, to ask why their story about a House report with new details of rape allegations against the President of the United States included neither those details, nor a single use of the word "rape." archive.is/1s9AM

A reminder for Corporate Democrats: New research from Yale found that Medicare for All would save over 114,000 lives and $1 trillion a year. It's no surprise why the majority of Americans — including 90% of Democratic voters — support it.

NEW: The DOGE operative who gutted USAID -- firing thousands of employees and canceling lifesaving programs -- never actually signed the paperwork that's legally required for him to be employed by the agency.

This young lady understands that in a Democracy the power resides with the people, not the Orange tyrant that’s squatting in the White House. Let’s get the vote out and create the biggest #BlueWaveIn7Days it’s time to take our country back. Make a plan and let’s seal the deal!🗳️

BREAKING: In a blistering order, Judge Hinderaker details how the Trump admin only has done anything in the case of Ahmed Soliman when ordered to do so. As such, he now orders DOJ to address each of the 11 steps he sees as being needed to bring Soliman back to the U.S.

After Lula lost Brazil’s first round, organizers got to work. They filled buses, arranged boats, and reached voters face to face. He came back to win by 4.4 million votes. Seven days left here. Who needs a ride or help getting to the polls? Be Brazil! #BlueWaveIn7Days

When a former Republican governor and a former Democratic governor who once ran against each other unite behind the same Senate candidate, that’s NEWS. David Beasley and Jim Hodges are backing Dr. Annie Andrews in South Carolina. #BlueWaveIn7Days

If for no other reason, vote against every damn Republican on the ballot because of this. Because of this disgrace, this shame. What happened to Alex Pretti should never happen in America.👇

Alex Pretti's father: Our son was shot and killed by the government, federal immigration agents, on January 24th, 2026. His hands were in the air, and his face was on the ground when he was executed by ICE agents. No one from the federal government called us on that day. No one has called us since.

FLASHBACK — Republican Paul Weyrich (co-founder of the Heritage Foundation & ALEC): “I don’t want everybody to vote… our leverage in elections goes up as the voting populace goes down.” They’ve been saying it out loud for years. Please vote. 🗳️ 🇺🇸
