Would that be the same Pulitzer Trump was asking for just the other night?! 🤨
This man was dead weight, hanging high above the ground after touching a high-voltage line. His coworker climbed up, held him in place, gave him mouth-to-mouth. Randall Champion survived—and lived another 35 years. Rocco Morabito’s photo, “The Kiss of Life,” won the Pulitzer Prize. True heroism.

Russia was focused “in a bipartisan way” on trying to harm American politicians who had been supportive of Ukraine. The video targeting Talarico appeared as Steve Witkoff visited Moscow as pressing for an end to the war in Ukraine and, more broadly, tensions between the US and Russia.
Russian disinformation campaign and Elon Musk going after Talarico. That’s all you need to know when deciding who to vote for: www.nytimes.com/2026/10/22/u...

Glad to see CNN reporting on this. @jimacosta.bsky.social and I raised concerns about DHS potentially using a military-grade “heat ray.” After 20+ years in national security, I find this deeply troubling. A weapon designed to inflict intense pain. Against civilians? Why does DHS need this?

My brain cannot process this level of corruption. She was being paid $50 million to engineer a pardon from Trump *while working at the Justice Department* as a "Special Government Employee." And it worked. He got the pardon, and she got the money. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/20/u...

The dirty money pays for more than just ads.
Huge follow-up reporting to my scoop: The Guardian confirmed America Next—the conservative nonprofit founded by Bobby Jindal that was offering students $ to disrupt El-Sayed events—paid a firm registered to Tommy Teepell’s dad Timmy $250k for “canvassing and influencer marketing” against El-Sayed.

National insurers opted not to renew more than 6,200 homeowners’ insurance policies in New Mexico in 2025. That marks the highest annual number of non-renewals in state history, and represents a near-tripling of non-renewals since 2021. buff.ly/9sjmxFs

BREAKING WSJ: Vladimir Putin has proposed that he, Trump, and Xi Jinping meet next month to talk about Ukraine in an attempt to negotiate an end to the four-year conflict that would favor Moscow.

The Trump regime’s window to get Russia a victory in Ukraine without Congress exposing the corrupt personal payments Trump and Co. will get from Russia if they pull it off is down to three months. Hence the big push now.
3 days ago Trump said if it wasn't for one dumb general Russia would have seized Kyiv on day one. Today Rubio is telling us that the war isn't about controlling Ukraine, it's just about Donetsk. They can't get their story straight, but they all seem in a big hurry to sell out Ukraine to Putin.

SCOOP: 'Tommy' from the now-viral exchange with Abdul El-Sayed is Thomas Teepell, a former staffer for Republican Senator Josh Hawley with close ties to Christian Nationalist Sean Feucht. He's the son of a former Bobby Jindal staffer whose consultant work was instrumental in getting Hawley elected.
