Good for them. He needs to be called out publicly over and over.

Over 2,000 alumni from Vivek’s all-boys catholic high school in Cincinnati have signed and circulated a petition demanding that he pull the ad and issue a public apology for “ignoring the moral responsibilities” of his Jesuit education. I think he’s pretty cooked.

Even if it isn’t always effective, it’s very satisfying to vote against people who suck.

Vladimir Putin is the one leader who has access to the most money with the least amount of monitoring, regulation, or tracking. Any time you hear someone ask why Trump praises Putin more than anyone else in the world, refer them to the paragraph above.

Yeah, this man should not be allowed to practice law, and any failure to take away his ability to practice law after all of this would be a part of the end of the rule of law in America.

Blanche on CBS says his suit against Alaska is "asking the court to step in where the Alaska Supreme Court didn't, which is to look at federal law and if necessary to allow a process for Alaska to decide who should be certified as the winner." (So, the voters won't get to decide. Got it.)

I have read dozens of outraged posts because the US special envoy Witkoff called Putin a "humanist." But no one is writing about the fact that the American negotiators are simply not doing their job. Let me explain.

Something that's not being said. The REASON why Blanche and Bill Essayli are so defiantly violating the Constitution is bc John Roberts said they can't be prosecuted so long as they're following Trump's illegal orders. Blanche's criminality arises DIRECTLY out of Trump v. US.

Excellent evisceration of Donald Trump by @rbreich.bsky.social, including “It’s the moral squalor - the utter disregard for the opinions, norms & ideals of the nation &, for that matter, of humanity - that uniquely marks Trump & the reprobates he has attracted.” www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

"The bigger problem is that Rubio’s narrative of the West, and America, is heavily skewed toward what is Trumpism dressed up in pseudo-high culture. Yes, there’s some lip service to liberty, but there’s a lot more glorification of “unapologetic pursuit of national power”—and imperial conquest. "

Trump and Musk are just stringing Ukraine along and letting Russia attack it with impunity. And the American press is foolishly falling for blue smoke and mirrors, arguing whether Musk or Trump are responsible. Hint, they both are!

Take Trump seriously when he threatens to jail election officials for doing the job they’re sworn to do: counting votes. “We are not on the precipice of a constitutional crisis,” Marc Elias says. “We have reached it.” They’re betting you’ll stop paying attention. Follow us to prove them wrong.

A new report confirms what too many hardworking families already feel every day. Trump and Republican policies are raising costs for nearly everyone. Hundreds or thousands of dollars more a year for the middle class and the poorest, while the richest 1% come out ahead Op: Jess Craven ❌👑

Russia sank another ship in the Black Sea, off the coast of Romania at Constanta. One crew member is dead from the commercial vessel Khoryv; three are missing. Russia’s ally, the United States, will block NATO from taking any action.

The oil prices only know one way and this is up. They have climbed continuously in October. Trump’s announcement regarding the minuscule Russian promise has not even dented that, predictably. The Strait of Hormuz is severely disrupted and the Iranian regime plays Trump like a fiddle.

Zelenskyy tears into #Trump: "It is wrong and unacceptable for Trump to blame me for Russia’s aggression. This is an attempt to distract attention from Iran and what is happening in the Middle East. The Strait of Hormuz is blocked. That is the root of the problem."

No billionaire, especially one that gets massive contracts from our government, should have the power to unilaterally decide to shut down communications and weapons during a war of critical importance to the US and Ukraine. We must investigate this and hold Musk accountable.
