Every Bishop knows Trump disagrees with the Pope’s values. These people aren’t naive politically. They went in the pigsty & are embarrassed we saw the filth on their shoes.

Seth Abramson@sethabramson.bsky.social

I have zero sympathy for anyone involved in this grotesque farce. When you travel all the way to DC to go to the home of the most infamous fascist in US history and get ushered into his office alongside a videographer and photographer, you know *exactly* what vile game you're playing. Disgraceful.

Do the majority of SC voters care if their senator is not qualified or just if she’s not a Democrat?

This is a rare moment of bipartisanship. And a reliable indication that Darline Graham is a horrible, inexperienced nepo-candidate.

There are only two explanations for the NYT's habit of presenting GOP operatives and donors as true swing voters: 1. Their reporters and editors are somehow incapable of running a simple Google searches, showing just a staggering level of journalistic incompetence 2. They want to the GOP to win

A smart guy who's not a lousy president wouldn't be talking about a restaurant. He'd be admiring men's bodies & women's asses. He be saying how he didn't care about high prices because oil companies are getting rich. He'd be calling hardworking immigrants stupid thieves from shithouse nations.

Trump is BIG MAD about Obama saying the White House now looks like Saddam opened a Cheesecake Factory: "He's not a smart guy. He's not smart at all ... for you to say it's a Cheesecake Factory, that just shows why you were a lousy president"

Apology from these Bishops isn't accepted. They knew exactly which partisan pigsty they were entering. They didn't expect to get caught with the filth on their shoes.

You don’t get to be an archbishop by being naive and simple. They went to get goodies. They went to get school vouchers. They went to change abortion law. The Trump administration used them right back. They got caught, and now they pretend they weren’t political. #TaxTheChurches

From Zelenskyy. Patriot interceptors that could save innocent lives are sitting in European countries for weeks, which they paid for, unable to be transferred to Ukraine because Hegseth refuses to sign off. ~ Meidas Touch **** FFS 🇺🇸 quit with this crippling behavior for 🇺🇦

🚨THE GOP’S SENATE MAJORITY IS IN SERIOUS DANGER. Nate Silver now gives Democrats roughly a 75% chance of taking the Senate. 🔵 NC: Cooper +10 🔵 GA: Ossoff +8 🔵 TX: Talarico +2 🔵 MI: El-Sayed +2 🔵 IA: Turek +2 🔵 AK: Peltola +1.6 Election Night could turn into a Senate wipeout for Republicans. #VOTE

This is what putting South Carolina first looks like. I’m honored to have the support of two former governors — Republican David Beasley and Democrat Jim Hodges. We may not agree on everything, but we share a belief that matters most: S.C. deserves leaders who will always put its people first.

Does this look like evil, rogue, terrorist, apartheid, genocidal nation that Palestinian propaganda spreads thru algorithms to gullible Americans? This is what democracy looks like. I want to Free Palestine to have this one day. Stop supporting the terrorists & work for peace with these Israelis.

Christopher Webb@cwebbonline.com

Israel is just 2 days away from a critical election, and thousands of protesters are filling the streets of Tel Aviv demanding Netanyahu’s removal! They’re demanding accountability for October 7 security failures and an independent commission of inquiry.

Frankly, Betty, I don't give a bloody hoot when Republicans are insulted. Their existence is an embarrassment to decent Americans.

Mrs. Betty Bowers@mrsbettybowers.bsky.social

I keep seeing posts from Republicans pretending to be insulted by Barack Obama's Cheesecake Factory quip because most Americans supposedly think it serves haute cuisine. First, it does not. And you know that. Second, his remark wasn't about the food. It was about the over-the-top golden decor.

The man who has spent more money on politics in the last 2 years than George Soros has in his entire lifetime never says anything positive about his guy Ken Paxton. But he does serve up a steady diet of this stuff.

Even the Democrat with whom you rightfully disagree will not force a raped girl to give birth or a dangerous pregnancy to continue. That flawed Dem candidate could be the vote that blocks Trump's SCOTUS picks. Vote to protect democracy. That's the main issue on this ballot. Vote for every Democrat.

This is why Trump just said at his rally that he doesn’t care about high gas prices because people who own stakes in the oil and gas industry are getting rich.

Trump's dad was on the side of the third reich. I have no doubt the felon wouldn't support Britain today. I'm really concerned about which side the majority of Republicans are on now.

The Republicans are worse than I thought. And I thought they were just dumb, racist, & cruel. Look at these faces, same as the faces that went to lynchings for family entertainment, marched with Trump's dad at Nazi rallies, supported McCarthy & internment camps, shouted at kids integrating schools.

Water boarding wouldn’t get this out of me

This isn't new to me or any American who heard him brag of sexual assault. Dozens of women accuse him & his abusive behavior was adjudicated in court. Republican voters will make excuses for their continued support of this corrupt piece of trash. Decent people have to outvote them. Vote Democrats!

Mrs. Betty Bowers@mrsbettybowers.bsky.social

The allegations against Donald Trump for sexual assault seem to have a common denominator: He is physically violent and intentionally inflicts pain on his victims. He likes to slam women and girls up against doors and walls as he roughly manhandles them. Donald Trump is a sick and twisted person.

Every Democrat is better than any Republican. Jackson won’t force raped girls to give birth. He could be the vote that stops Trump’s SCOTUS pick. He’ll stop funding ICE terrorists. Vote for Democrats now.

Farmers who accept $millions in subsidies because Republicans’ policies failed are still voting Republican to stop socialism from coming to USA. They’ve killed irony forever.

Ron Filipkowski@ronfilipkowski.bsky.social

As his policies bankrupt them, Trump-supporting farmers fully embrace socialism. But only if it’s for them.

Every Republican accusation is a confession.

Republicans endanger children. This is one example but let's take a look at what's happening to children in #ICE detention. They are being denied medical attention, as well as healthy food & water. They are experiencing mental illness because they're being tortured. Vote blue & Vote early!

He's never cared about anyone but himself. He's admitted it on several occasions. Members of the cult that still makes excuses for supporting Republicans are traitors & fools. We can outvote the cult.

Governor JB Pritzker@govpritzker.illinois.gov

Absolutely disgusting, but what can we expect from an adjudicated rapist and a congenital liar?

Obama: "The guy has become billions of dollars wealthier in office. Nobody disputes this! It's just -- how do you do that when you're supposed to be looking out for you? And the worst part of it not a single Republican in Congress has done anything to stop it."

In August 2026, the U.S. Forest Service proposed to end the 2001 Roadless Area Conservation Rule. Overturning this policy would open these protected public lands to commercial logging, new road construction, and industrial mining. *The regime says it's for routine maintenance 🙄

They've always seen it. That's part of his appeal.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Trump is straight up saying during speeches that he wants white people coming to the country but not black. I don’t know what else people need to see.

The crowd cheered it on. They were amused by a POTUS who makes gutter humor, encouraged by his racist comments about immigrants who work harder than any Republican in office has ever had to work, & went home even dumber than when they arrived at the hate rally.

Ron Filipkowski@ronfilipkowski.bsky.social

So Trump’s closing argument is that high gas prices are good because his donors who run oil companies are making bank, Jon Husted has a nice ass but not quite as good as Nicki Minaj’s ass, after 7 months the Reflecting Pool is almost done, and we get a ballroom, arch and helipad.

The Nobel was made for someone like Zelenskyy. Not for Arafat. Not for a POTUS who hadn't proven himself, yet. No for someone who gifts it to war criminal. Not for someone who doesn't understand the suffering of real genocide, but sides with terrorists who commit it.
