Beatrice Keul, testified that she was introduced by Jeffrey Epstein to Donald J Trump, who then brutally raped her in a hotel room in Atlantic City, NJ, and her claims were deemed credible by a panel of the House Judiciary Committee today. The NYT has decided that this is not reportable news.

Jon Husted voted against the release of the Epstein files just weeks after receiving a maximum campaign contribution from an Epstein co-conspirator. Ohioans deserve strong leaders in Washington, not pedophile protectors.

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.

Muslims didn’t storm the Capitol on January 6, try to steal an election, or overthrow our government. White Christian nationalists, racist militia groups, and rabid Trump supporters did. We need to stop pretending the biggest terrorist threat to this country is coming from somewhere else.

The humanitarian Putin bombed more civilians today. Maybe Witkoff should spend a couple weeks in Kyiv to see first hand how much of a humanitarian his friend in Moscow is.

Two weeks ago, @jimacosta.bsky.social broke the story about DHS potentially using a military-grade “heat ray.” I joined him to discuss the risks. Today, CNN reports the Pentagon authorized DHS to test it. Having worked at DHS and the Pentagon, I find this horrific and deeply concerning.

The Republican speaker of the Ohio House is calling out JD Vance and Vivek Ramaswamy for their morally depraved closing arguments attacking the Democratic candidate for governor based on the fact that she was raped by her stepfather.

GAINESVILLE! They keep telling us Florida is a red state. But y’all packed that auditorium so full that Senator @sanders.senate.gov and I had to take the rally OUTSIDE to speak to the more than 3000 who came out!   Florida, we’re going to WIN this thing! #AngieforFlorida #Gainesville

Regarding the whole issue of who ordered the slowdown of Starlink in Ukraine: Fuck em both - Trump & Musk. Fuck em both. The bottom line is that both Elon Musk and Donald Trump are actively helping Putin kill Ukrainian civilians. Both Musk and Trump have blood on their hands. Fuck em both.

Someone came through my neighborhood in the middle of the night, leaving flyers with a DHS seal and the real ICE tip line on cars. My mom, a naturalized U.S. citizen, read one and felt afraid. Early voting is underway. The midterms are just two weeks away. Who is trying to scare people, and why?

Stephanie reposted

Behind closed doors, the DoD has made a bad habit of classifying the minimal details they choose to tell Congress. Why? Because if it's classified, we can't talk about it and they can go on hiding the cost of this war from the public. No more. Americans deserve to know.

Huge follow-up reporting to my scoop: The Guardian confirmed America Next—the conservative nonprofit founded by Bobby Jindal that was offering students $ to disrupt El-Sayed events—paid a firm registered to Tommy Teepell’s dad Timmy $250k for “canvassing and influencer marketing” against El-Sayed.

🚨 VILE: Vivek Ramaswamy’s new attack ad against Amy Acton features her estranged mother, who stayed married to the man who sexually abused her daughter at age 12, even after his arrest. Now even conservatives are calling the ad disgusting. The horrifying story behind Vivek’s attack:

Stephanie reposted

A despicable ad from Vivek Ramaswamy who is a despicable person. Desperate Republicans have run some horrible, dishonest ads to distract from their failures in office, but maybe none worse than this one.

Trump has a new scheme to bribe farmers in swing states with welfare checks of taxpayer money because fuel has gone up so much because of his war. But only money for them, not for anyone else in the country. No, we have to keep paying higher prices AND we pay Trump’s voters.

Stephanie reposted

I don’t understand why farmers need an endless series of welfare payments from the rest of us since Trump took office. Aren’t his policies working for you? You need us to pay you so you will keep voting for the guy who is failing you? Don’t you believe in free market capitalism?

Remember, when you see reports about Russia launching an operation against U.S. elections to help Republicans, this is the *sixth consecutive* cycle in which this has happened.

It's not Muslims who want to turn their religion into US law. It's right wing GOP Christians. It's not Muslims who waged the Jan 6 terrorist attack. It was right wing GOP Christians. Yet these same right wing GOP Christians accuse Muslims of doing what they have done and what they are plotting!

Marisa's entire piece is terrific, but this part has really stuck with me. A group of College Republicans decided that El-Sayed wasn't "welcome" in the Senate and set out to stop him.

SCOOP: 'Tommy' from the now-viral exchange with Abdul El-Sayed is Thomas Teepell, a former staffer for Republican Senator Josh Hawley with close ties to Christian Nationalist Sean Feucht. He's the son of a former Bobby Jindal staffer whose consultant work was instrumental in getting Hawley elected.

Right now, Floridians across our state are coming together to exercise their voice and their political power. On November 3rd, they’ll vote for change.

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.

Stephanie reposted

Trump and Musk are doing everything they can to try and force Ukraine to surrender to Putin while Musk spends over $300 million to try and buy the midterm elections to maintain total power. The American government under Republicans are on the side of evil. Vote them out.
