Another month, another loss-I will always love you my sweet boy. Never thought it would end like today. 🥹

1. A group formed last week called “Progressive Alliance of Wisconsin” is attacking David Crowley, the state’s Democratic nominee for governor, with hundreds of thousands in attack mailers. A Popular Information investigation has linked the effort to GOP operatives.

House Judiciary Democrats have just released a 50-page report that pulls together years of assault allegations against Trump and his reported connections to Jeffrey Epstein. The report calls for a special counsel to investigate Trump's ties to Epstein.

🎯🎯

Humbled to have the 44th president with us in our movement to demand more for working people in Michigan. Change is in the air. 🤝

Agree 💯%.......

I'm a little confused. Trump says he's brought in $21 trillion in new investment, but the White House's own website lists just $11.3 trillion. https://newsletter.platypuseconomics.com/p/how-to-spot-a-fake-trillion

“.. Her Democratic challenger, Troy Jackson, has made Trump’s trade war with Canada a central issue in the campaign ..” @wsj.com #MEsen www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

“.. The world’s richest man poured $446 million of his own money into this year’s midterm elections, mostly aimed at preserving the Republican Party’s control of Congress, recent election filings show.” @washingtonpost.com www.washingtonpost.com/elections/in...

JUST POSTED: Today at The NYT we are publishing a major investigation into how President Trump used his executive powers to expose millions of Americans to greater cancer risks. A six month-long investigation built on more than 10,000 pages of FOIA records. Read it www.nytimes.com/2026/10/24/c...

Here is a video overview of the NYT investigation @maxinejoselow.bsky.social and I did that examines how President Trump moved first to grant pollution passes to chemical plants. Then former petrochemical lobbyists he appointed moved to make these waivers permanent www.nytimes.com/video/climat...

During this investigation, we traveled to locations around the United States where President Trump has moved to ease pollution rules, including to Port Neches, Tx. where there is a middle school a few blocks from the chemical plant considered by the EPA the largest cancer threat nationwide.

When first reported, 2025’s jobs reports added up to 1.2 million new jobs. After revisions, the economy added just 116,000 — 90% less.

Trump will LOVE the opportunity to “place the executive branch outside the reach of the law.”

Scoop: White House lawyers are weighing preemptive mass pardons for junior staff, sources says Under discussion: Pardoning everyone involved in deportation, war, or trade policy www.washingtonsun.com/whitehouse/w...

Be prepared for the pardons.

Glad someone is writing a book about this.

JENKINS: “.. Trump says and does whatever, in his cynical mind, he thinks will benefit Mr. Trump in the next five minutes. This is a universal theory of Trump behavior to which I have yet to find a significant exception.” www.wsj.com/opinion/amer...

He has outed himself

“.. Video footage, Sheriff Greene said, clearly showed a woman being punched in the face. ‘I know what people saw, and if I saw that video, too, I’d be like, ‘My God, why didn’t the police do anything?’” @nytimes.com www.nytimes.com/2026/10/24/u...

it's Saturday, and it's time for "This Week in Stupid: October 24 edition" — MAGA shoots it, the Space Nazi refutes it, and so much more... thanks for reading, and please sign up for my daily newsletter so you never miss a post —

Trump wants to make sure it’s as easy as possible for his friend Putin to bomb apartment buildings and kill children. He’s not just the worst president in history, he’s the most evil person to ever serve at the highest level of government. Vote out his weak Republican enablers.

I think maybe we don't need to worry about them having the loyalty of the rank and file if they attempt a coup

A husband who enlisted to get healthcare for his family. What a country.

The military wants you to commit to it but it won't commit to you. That's how the idea of voluntary service dies and nations turn to forced conscription when they need cannon fodder.

A US Army service member's wife was reportedly detained by ICE agents when she was on base picking up ID cards for her and her children. Giovanna Perez has been in the US for 29 years and suspects the Army shared her information with ICE after her husband enlisted.

NEW: ICE is trying to deport a mother of 4 while her husband is at Fort Benning in Army basic training. When she went to pick up the family's military IDs, Navy personnel turned her over to ICE. She's been in the US since age six. With @nancyayoussef.bsky.social www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

Kroger just announced the largest layoffs in its history, with plans to cut 3,000 employees as it ramps up use of AI. Reminder that Kroger has spent $12.3B on stock buybacks since 2019 and paid its CEO $14M last year — 417x its median worker's pay. AI is turbo-charging corporate greed.

Say it with us: Russia was never a hoax. www.mediaite.com/media/tv/joe...

Trump is taking a victory lap that belongs to Biden.

DOJ calls @repbeatty.bsky.social's questions about the Kennedy Center a "fishing expedition" Odd thing to say right before invoking executive privilege to keep the answers buried @democracydefendersaction.org & @washlitgroup.bsky.social are pressing forward Full story👇

This is the guy that punched a woman in the face at a recent rally hosted by our president. Please share it around, as he represents our country right now.

This is a pogrom, no different than what the Cossacks did to Jewish communities in the Pale of Settlement.

Mare coffee pagoda is open! To honor the 6th anniversary of Smoothie’s passing, we have popovers made by the horse of your choice!

🚨New by me: ICE agents shot a man in New York City while he was in his car with his 5-year-old child in the back seat last week. I'm from New York City. My grandfather was an immigrant in NYC. ICE is siphoning taxpayer dollars that should be helping families. www.thequeenzone.com/ice-is-sipho...

Newly leaked audio of Mike Rogers reveals that the Michigan Republican plans to kick people who are "really, really sick" off their health insurance and put them in a separate "catastrophic fund." "The sickest part of our society ends up consuming the most." More: substack.com/profile/2357...

Excerpts from Michael Lewis on DOGE (Guardian article). 1. Gavin Kliger, white nationalist, refused to shake hands with the Black IRS staffer who briefed him on privacy issues. Or pay attention. Kliger now has a defense start-up valued at 1.4B thanks to DOGE. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

JD VANCE CALLING ABDUL EL-SAYED A WEASEL IS RICH THE REINVENTION TOUR 🤡 Born James Donald Bowman, changed his name twice 🤡 Compared Trump to Hitler, then became his VP 🤡 Called Trump a “moral disaster,” now kisses his ass 🤡 Admitted he was willing to “create stories” to get media attention

If you are going to ask people to use their very lives as a shield for your safety the least you can do is help with money. They are already putting so much more value on the table than we will ever be able to repay. If you cannot understand the value of a life over money you have already lost.

The Netherlands is drawing a line on European security, with its Defence Minister declaring that Europe can no longer rely on America for protection. youtu.be/0xQp003kYmg?...

Fascist Russia is now carrying out attacks on shipping within the territorial waters of NATO states. Such attacks will become more serious and more frequent unless and until the Kremlin feels some meaningful consequences. Condemnation and concern are not enough.
