He's soon going to be bragging about how many cases of fraud they've found and how people are getting rich, and then in the end we'll learn that no real actual fraud was found and no one got paid.

Trump declaring war on fraud is like Al Capone launching a campaign against organized crime.

Ukrainian farmers strike again, this time hauling off a Tor-M1 (SA-15 Gauntlet) air defense system, a multimillion dollar prize now free for Ukraine to study or reuse.

Best Twitter riposte of the day. Virtually everything Elon says about Ukraine is false, or, as a White House staffer says today to the Economist, "it's as if he spoke to Putin first." And that, literally, is what he does.

HOW MANY MILITARY FAMILIES HAVE TO GET SICK BEFORE HEGSETH ACTS? Our troops should be defending this country, not fighting for the right to live in homes that won’t make their families sick. #SupportTheTroops

The New York Times just put out this credulous bullshit that claims Iran is getting ready to attack, citing Trump officials. This is clearly a way for Trump to justify more heavy bombing. It’s so fucking irresponsible to position it like this.

I plan to be a governor for ALL Tennesseans, and work to make it a place we can all be proud to call home. If you are curious about our campaign and what we stand for, check out all of my policy positions at greenforgovernor.com/policy

As I figured, Acton was telling the truth the whole time, and Vivek Ramaswamy remains the worst person. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

The pedophile protection party’s president is laundering right-wing conspiracy theories through the most corrupt DOJ in American history. Whenever the news turns bad, this creep reaches for one name: mine. So let’s make it crystal clear. My name has always been Ilhan Omar.

Dying!!! 💀💀💀💀🔥🔥🔥🔥 #Pinks Honestly? Do I laugh or cry? 😭

He's a huge problem but for most of us any attention on him is like trying to drown a vampire in our blood, to hack @andyrichter.co

American Moment “takes in 15-30 paid fellows each semester…and teaches them to tuck in their shirts, shower daily, and network relentlessly.” By Ben Smith, 10/21/26 … 1/ www.semafor.com/article/10/2...

How to peel an apple with a knife:

Ramaswamy has produced an attack ad weaponizing the rape of his opponent, Amy Acton, when she was 12 years old. It features Acton’s mother, who abandoned Acton after she was raped by her step-father, fleeing the state with her husband. Here is the corporate money helping fund that ad.

Absolutely. 👇

New in PN: The end of the Trump rally "Even for the diehards, his rallies have become a slog as a sleepy president rambles pointlessly from one subject to another, like a musical act whose hit-making days are decades in the past playing the old songs with little of the verve that made them popular"

Is Trump a Russian asset? At this point this much is clear: if he were a Russian asset, he would be doing exactly what Trump is doing now. www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2026/10...

I don’t care what side of the aisle you’re on, nobody should support this kind of deception. They created a fake pamphlet to spark trans outrage and sent it to every home in Texas. Then their paid shills continued the outrage on social media. Politics is broken.

Good.

I honestly don’t know much about El-Sayed, but this is a perfect answer from him. It’s also hilarious that Tommy used to work for Josh Hawley and was paid 250k for influencer marketing AGAINST El-Sayed. They might want to get a refund. What a spectacular backfire. The walk of shame at the end. 🤣

Mark Zuckerberg should understand that Republicans won’t always be in charge. If Democrats take the Senate, he will be forced to answer to Congress about his company’s abuse of tax credits to avoid paying its fair share while it builds AI data centers.

Guide dogs spend about two years in training to become the eyes of blind people, and one of their best skills is finding an empty seat and leading their owner straight to it.

The Albanians don't fuck around 👇

"Whatever the balance of foolishness and corruption in each fascist stooge, the outcome is the same. Trump cannot hire good people because he is a bad and undisciplined person .." This is fabulous And very accurate:

Tax the rich? Everyone is against it until they find out how it actually works. Watch and find out how Wealth Taxes actually work.

Holy shit, every paragraph of this story is more jaw-dropping than the last. What a fucking diseased country we live in.

He Entered ICE Custody. By the Next Morning, He Was Dead. Lianyong Wei, a 51-year-old Chinese immigrant, died a day after entering ICE custody. NPR says he was the 57th detainee death reported since Trump’s second term began. theintellectualistofficial.substack.com/p/he-entered...

Your vote is not a love letter to a politician. It’s a tool for deciding who gets power, who loses it and who answers to the public. Stop expecting perfection from candidates and start demanding accountability from government. 🗣️ #JulesUnfiltered

Teenagers in France are protesting for better-resourced schools, leading to clashes with one of Europe's largest internal security forces. The result is a storm of unrest, with mass arrests and hundreds of injured. For President Emmanuel Macron it’s hardly the dream ending to his decade in power.

😑Musk has poured approximately $366 MILLION into the 2026 midterm election cycle to help Republicans maintain control of Congress. According to Reuters and The New York Times, as of October 16, 2026, $276 million of that was contributed just since July. #Pinks ⭐️

She done lost her damn mind.

BREAKING: A complaint has been filed with the California Bar against White House Press Secretary Katie Zacharia, citing Popular Information’s reporting, for “the Unauthorized Practice of Law and for Holding Herself Out as Entitled to Practice Law.”

NEW: Recent waves of Iranian attacks on vessels in and near the Strait of Hormuz indicate that Iran retains the ability to effectively target vessels in the strait, suggesting that Iran has either overcome previous operational challenges or is adapting to such constraints through new capabilities.
