NEW: "Donald Trump was an active participant in Jeffrey Epstein’s sexual abuse of young women during the mid-to-late 1990s," per new House Judiciary Dem report. Report has new allegation that Trump raped a 24-year-old and then promised the victim a visa & NYU admission, demanding she stay quiet.

We published this story late Friday afternoon amid an avalanche of news so I’m reposting it now because Kohen Wiley’s life mattered more than a box of diapers.

Elon Musk has dumped almost $450 million into the midterm elections. Tesla paid 0% in federal income tax last year. We should tax the billionaires.

New — I wrote about Vivek Ramaswamy’s weaponization of Amy Acton’s childhood sexual abuse and how it’s only the latest symptom of a Republican party flush with rape apologists, led by an adjudicated rapist:

so it begins.

Amy Acton's mother is the first woman Republicans ever believe in a rape case.

Trans voter to @aoc.bsky.social: Trans people in America feel like they've been abandoned by the Democratic Party, that we are a losing issue, that it's not worth defending us. What do you say to that? AOC:

Noted radical... Hillary Clinton... now in favor of court expansion. :)

This looks to be the ultimate selective prosecution. Feds have been taking a pass on cases involving marijuana distribution businesses, which are still, to most peoples’ surprise, mostly technically illegal under federal law. And they also indicted her daughter www.cnn.com/2026/10/22/p...

Ramaswamy has produced an attack ad weaponizing the rape of his opponent, Amy Acton, when she was 12 years old. It features Acton’s mother, who abandoned Acton after she was raped by her step-father, fleeing the state with her husband. Here is the corporate money helping fund that ad.

Trump said: “When I’m gone, you’re all going to be broke.” Truer words have never been spoken. He has plundered, robbed and bilked the whole country for himself and his family. That’s what disgorgement is all about. Disgorgement—please practice this very fine word.

In 1980, inflation was 14% and unemployment was 8%. Consumer sentiment: 52.⁣ ⁣ In 2026: still 52.⁣ ⁣ Turns out Americans aren't just worried about the economy https://newsletter.platypuseconomics.com/p/its-not-the-economy-its-whos-running

I have greatly enjoyed watching America feel the same things I have felt about Vivek Ramaswamy since the fall of 2003

Kinda wild that there have been wild protests going on in Albania for months set off by a corrupt Kushner luxury resort project and there has been barely coverage of it here 🇺🇸 and Trump never gets asked about it.

Uh oh, did someone’s website and personal account experience a big drop in activity after Ukraine hit a Russian data center?

New working paper: the Norwegian wealth tax was a huge success. The "exodus" of wealthy people never happened (less than 100 individuals left). Tax revenue increased by 71.5%. No changes in business activity or investment. www.nber.org/papers/w35854

NEW: Footage from Thursdays shooting shows an ICE agent in a construction vest brandishing a rifle. His name is Brenden Cuni. Federal judges have found multiple arrests involving Cuni unlawful. He has been accused of repeatedly Tasing a handcuffed man and tackling a pregnant woman in Minneapolis.

This is Brenden Cuni of New Rochelle, NY, an ICE agent who was seen earlier brutalizing a pregnant woman in Minneapolis, MN. As reported by I_May_Have_Weed I hope his family is proud of him. #FuckICE #FucktRump #Pinks #ProudBlue

Artificial Intelligence.

I may call it “AI” or ”machine learning“ or “dipshittery,” but I’m sure as shit not calling it “super” because 1) I’m not a five year old, and 2) I’m not a spineless sycophant.

I think in reality what socialism actually means in the American context is that trillionaire Elon Musk got $38 billion from the U.S. government and you got rejected trying to buy a $1 soda on SNAP benefits.

The economy baked a bigger pie then handed everyone a smaller fork. https://youtu.be/Cc21Z2WeWdU

“We swim in rape culture in the United States to the point where it doesn’t even register anymore. It simply floats by with the rest of the news, barely a blip in our consciousness.”

Wage growth just keeps slowing. And yes, wages are rising slower than prices, and no, that's not how economic growth is meant to work.

🚨 EXCLUSIVE: Sen. Ron Wyden says the DOJ and FBI withheld a secret interview with a banker tied to Jeffrey Epstein from the files released to the public. And he says there may be more.

It appears that Gregory Feathers murdered Lorenzo Salgado Araujo.

NEW AD: Listen to this sh*t.

Can’t stress this enough, you guys: NEVER talk to cops—esp without your lawyer. If you do have the misfortune of encountering police who request info other than can be gleaned from your legally obtaining ID, keep your mouth shut unless you’re calmly, clearly demanding a lawyer. Now, more than ever!

They all knew ahead of time who he is...

Don Jr. is compromised by the Russian government—something you could have guessed, but is now fully confirmed by this ProPublica investigation about an oligarch who helped pay for his wedding.

My man looks like he received a lifetime ban from all Ashley Furniture Outlets

Rep. James Clyburn says he supports expanding the Supreme Court: "13 is a pretty good number. A baker's dozen would be a good number to have on the Court."

You know something has gone terribly wrong when 94% of teachers have to dip into their own pockets to buy school supplies while the average Wall Street employee got a bonus of $246,900 in 2025. Hello?

This week’s Supreme Court decision is another reminder of what we are up against heading into November. They can put more obstacles in our way, but they cannot take away our power. Our answer is to show up, make our voices heard, and turn out in numbers that are too big to rig.
