If there’s one player in football every young man should look up to, then it’s Bukayo Saka. He faced racist abuse at 19 and showed the courage to speak out. Through his work with BigShoe, he’s helped fund 120 life-changing operations for children in Nigeria. (1/3)

Bill Maher said “fuck you” and called us bitches for being upset he dined with Trump. Then Trump tore into Maher on Truth Social calling him a lying, losery coward. That’s funny to me.

Elon Musk is spending $445M+ to buy the midterms for one very simple reason. He's terrified that a Democratic Congress might finally hold him accountable.

EL-SAYED: I get that the President takes personal offense to my first name. He doesn't mind as much when it's the Saudis who are funding his son-in-law's private equity. Doesn't seem to mind as much when it's the Qataris who are giving them a $400 million private jet…

Big news: Court finds Maurene Comey's termination was unlawful and violated her rights under the Civil Service Reform Act, grants reinstatement and backpay. It's a strong and welcome punch in the nose to a bully. I'll be doing a longer youtube on it shortly at youtube.com@talkingfeds

I believe in government of the people, by the people, and for the people. Mike Rogers believes in government of the billionaires, by the corporations, and for the special interests.

President Biden at the Philly airport. I said “love you Joe!” and he waved me over, shook my hand, and asked my name. He said “I love you too, Dan.” I’m tearing up a bit.

Folks, if you hate authoritarianism, you should be feeling good this morning. In Serbia, a student-led movement just ousted a longtime strongman, peacefully. And we Americans should be paying attention, because we have a chance in November to send a similar message. (link below)

The people of Serbia celebrating the defeat of the dictator who held full authoritarian control of their country for nearly 14 years. This is what democracy looks like.

BRENNAN: The DOJ lawsuit demands the Alaska result not be certified if voters are confused. The confusion is defined as Sen. Sullivan not winning. BLANCHE: That's not what it says BRENNAN: I'm quoting from it. You are telling them not to certify it. What right does the federal govt have?

Lula has been reelected president, Brazilian media has now called. An extraordinary comeback for the left-wing politician who trailed by 2 points in round 1 but managed to hold off Flávio Bolsonaro, the former president's son.
