“He’s got the White House looking like Saddam Hussein opened up a Cheesecake Factory” — Obama

Bidenomics was working. Crisis began when Trump ended it. A THREAD.

Let me be specific: Donald Trump is an f-ing traitor. He is in cahoots with Putin and Russia to break our democratic ally, Ukraine, which makes all of us less safe. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/14/w...

And MAGA bot accounts go silent after Zelenskyy bombs a Russian bot farm. Elon is BIG MAD! Plus, a rare "good" billionaire steps up, and Trump ads using our tax dollars ordered stopped by a judge.

Worth a reread given Trump's threats against LA:

#Paris

Probably not a coincidence that Trump is banning multiple media outlets from the White House at the same time that we have confirmation that the White House has been lying about military casualties in this illegal war in Iran.

Four-byline alert: 🚨 “.. People who have discussed the subject with Mr. Trump .. say his outbursts are rooted in worries that if the artificial intelligence boom fueling the American economy slows down, the market could crash and recession could quickly follow.” www.nytimes.com/2026/09/18/u...

JON STEWART: “They began covering their ass 3 weeks after 9/11… There was poison in the air, on the ground, on your pets/clothes… THE CITY KNEW. Rather than limit the damage, they covered it up… After 9/11, business will never be usual again.” (From @mamdanibulletin.bsky.social )

But of course gay dating app Grindr experienced a massive outage today in Dallas during the fascist republican Nazi midterm rally, likely due to extremely high traffic. The biggest homophobic hateful bigots are often the most closeted hypocrites. 🏳️‍🌈

“Whistleblower claims USPS plan for Trump's mail voting order could 'derail' midterms” I mean, yeah. This administration will not be bound by laws or court orders…. You don’t have to conceive of “how” to know there’s a plan in place.

It doesn’t get any cuter than this, folks. 😍

Great behind-the-scenes look at working 9-5 with Dolly. source.washu.edu/news_clip/wo...

I want a president who likes the democratic governments of Canada and Ukraine more than the dictatorships of North Korea and Saudi Arabia.

As you can tell from this short thread, Korte is a pro, and some national MSM outlet ought to pick her up and get her back in print, pronto. You'd get a lot of great stories, and you'd drive Hegseth bananas.

Republican economic policies damage the economy. Democratic policies, taxing the wealthy and supporting the rest, grow the economy for everyone. We have been watching this truth for 50 years, and the voters STILL do not get it. Remarkable. Educated, informed voters are the lifeblood of Democracy.

The number of jobs created under Democrats vs. Republicans? Answer: It’s 49.8 million versus 1.9 million. That isn’t a typo. Fifty million to two, basically. newrepublic.com/article/2143...

There should be an emergency meeting among Dem leadership tonight and the entire Dem delegation should be on the Capitol steps tomorrow morning denouncing this and describing steps they’ll take in light of this latest dangerous insanity.

Now, I know this is going to come as a shock to everybody. But ICE is making it official agency policy that they will cover up all the crimes they commit against American citizens

A chilling marker. Thank you, Dr. Fauci, for your invaluable, brave, patriotic service during the pandemic despite the knuckle-dragging anti-science right-wing Covidiots showering you with death threats as you simply tried to save as many lives as possible. #ThankYouDrFauci

Good grief

Pat Oliphant, the great master of modern political cartooning and ballsiest satirist of my lifetime, has passed away — and the world will never be the same.

Second body in a week. Houston? Wrong guy…just driving his crew to work. No bodycams, naturally. Now Maine…the eleventh ICE killing since Trump took office. Ask "why are you here?" and you get silence. This isn’t law enforcement. It’s a firing squad…with a budget.

After the Sloop Clearwater was barred, Captain Rory Kane "was informed the removal was due to the presence of banners reading: ‘Save the Clean Water Act and Indigenous Rights, Racial Justice, Climate Solutions’”. A representative from Sail4th 250 informed the Captain the decision was ‘above them.'

Happy 4th and 250th, America! Do better.

A Japanese fan broke down crying after his country's elimination, but a group of Brazilians fans went to console him and Mexican fans made him soar. You gotta love the World Cup! ❤️🌎⚽️ Video: RÉCORD

Yea THIS guy He’s robbing you blind

Pete Hegseth is removing or blocking the promotions of all military officers who he has determined would not participate in an illegal pro-Trump self-coup (auto-coup) in 2028. You can believe me now or believe me in 2028. Either way, stop seeing what Hegseth is doing as random.

Ossoff: I don’t think many people are tuning in because he’s lost it. But more importantly, what we’re seeing is how destabilized he is by his global humiliation in the Middle East, which he cannot deny or lie away. He has cemented his place in history in disgrace.

HOLY SMOKES! Moscow right now 🔥🔥🔥

DWS News just got the money shot on their live feed through a gap in the curtain, they are being knocked off one by one, all kinds of crap falling down, you can hear it hitting the scaffolding, 25 minutes back from current time. www.youtube.com/watch?v=H44e...

I guess they got the non-woke president they were looking for.

A federal judge in Colorado has confirmed what we’ve been warning about: under President Trump, ICE agents are not properly trained and are carrying out warrantless arrests in violation of the law — disregarding people's rights.

Donald Trump just said it himself: He doesn't care about the American people.

Another legendary voice now belongs to the ages. RIP John Sterling!

The Roberts Court is a Jim Crow Court.

Someone tell Sen Kennedy this is what big balls looks like

Gas prices are up. Groceries are up. Utilities are up. And what is trump doing? Distracted by ballrooms and passports. Statues of himself and monuments, and a war he started that he's already bored with. Silent, enabling Republicans must pay in November.

NEWS: Bette Midler just released a new music video for her remake of "All You Fascists Bound to Lose"—featuring Barbara Hershey, other celebrities, and crowds from the No Kings protests in a joyful, powerful show of resistance. You have to see this.

Sen. Chris Murphy on Witkoff and Kushner: “This is our team—our two lead negotiators on Iran. No diplomatic experience. Completely out of their depth. And both have massive financial conflicts of interest, with wealth tied to Middle Eastern autocrats.” #USPolitics #ForeignPolicy #Midterms2026

Today is now 8 weeks since Trump declared he would get Iran to surrender unconditionally in 4-6 weeks.

President Biden said President Trump is the worst president in U.S. history. He also pushed back on Trump’s “golden age” claim, saying the only thing truly golden is the flashy gold decor over the Oval Office fireplace. By the numbers, Biden ranks among the best presidents in modern U.S. history.

That’s pretty much the cult line. All he’s got left are people who will drink the kool-aid if the order was posted on Truth Social.

A win! A judge just blocked the Trump admin from strangling hundreds of wind and solar projects nationwide. Chief Judge Denise Casper issued a preliminary injunction, striking down a policy that required every wind and solar project to get personal sign-off from Interior Secretary Doug Burgum.
