I know there's a lot going on but I feel it should probably be more of an above-the-fold story that members of Congress released a thoroughly documented report directly accusing the president of the United States of being a serial rapist.

Got the damage for my cat's $8,000 hairball. Hit my annual max on her insurance, so my portion is...... $2,489. If anyone wants to send me five bucks I won't say no venmo.com/u/SusanRinku...

My cat had emergency surgery for a bowel obstruction Friday night and she is now trying to give me a heart attack by jumping on furniture (10+ times) and over a baby gate (3x). Yes, she's on gabapentin but her long-acting opioid is working a little too well

There is genuine public rage about Musk, which is what Congress is responding to, so when he says he will come for the people pulling the strings, he means the voters.

My brain cannot process this level of corruption. She was being paid $50 million to engineer a pardon from Trump *while working at the Justice Department* as a "Special Government Employee." And it worked. He got the pardon, and she got the money. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/20/u...

nytimes.comA Billionaire Wanted a Trump Pardon. His Family Gave Alina Habba a $50 Million Deal. (Gift Article)Julio Herrera Velutini, a prominent Venezuelan, was seeking clemency. He got it not long after his daughter gave Ms. Habba, a lawyer close to President Trump, an extraordinarily lucrative job.

Looks like they want to either hack our voting machines to change votes, or use their own work to argue that they are insecure.

I watched Florida taken apart by corrupt rightwing governors who destroyed so much. Oregon might not be perfect, but it has a functional government that has preserved many human rights other states have lost. Please don't take that for granted-- reelect Kotek as governor. Hold fast.

The GOP candidates for secretary of state in Arizona and Nevada would be in charge of election administration. Both think the 2020 election was rigged against Trump.

This is why every election is important. Republicans learned this early on and focused on local and state elections year ago, and we’re just playing catch up.

Sen. Susan Collins helped steer millions in federal defense contracts to Navatek, whose CEO illegally funneled thousands of dollars to her campaign. The FBI sought to launch a probe and was eyeing Collins and other lawmakers. Then Trump gutted the unit in charge. THREAD 🧵
