1. Not sure when a new, on-the-record rape allegation against a sitting president isn’t considered news — especially considering Trump was found liable by a jury in a similar case — but it was ignored by most mainstream media outlets

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.

But the most important thing everyone needs to remember is this: take the person in America you think has more contempt for the working class and middle class than absolutely anyone, then quadruple that amount of contempt, and you'll be *entering the suburbs* of how Fox News feels about such people.

Obviously this is racist and gross, but it's also shockingly historically illiterate? No one who has taken a single high school world history course would deny that Arab culture has produced incredible science and literature. This is why we need basic humanities education.

Just to make this concrete: if I picked a grain of sand somewhere on the earth’s surface, and you went to a random location on the planet with a pair of tweezers and by sheer luck picked up that very grain of sand first try, that would be MORE statistically likely than Trump not being a rapist.

Americans have a choice. You can vote for Nazism—which is 100% what this is—or you can vote for America. Anyone votes for Nazism should never be forgiven by anyone they love or even anyone they know casually. Voting for Nazism is an unforgivable sin for good reason. It is treachery against America.

$446 million of his (sometime) reported net worth of $1 trillion means he’s still only spending 0.0446% of his net worth to try to buy elections. put in more concrete terms: if you had $100, this would be like spending less than 5 cents. now tell me again why i should vote against a wealth tax.

Q: Now that you know the backstory about Amy Acton and her stepfather and why she hasn't talked to her mom in so long -- her stepfather was indicted for rape -- do you change your mind about the ad? TRUMP: No. No. It's a mother speaking badly against Amy Acton. You don't know anything.

Any journalist who describes this ad as anything other than pro-pedophilia should lose their job. The man the ad was cut to defend was not only charged with child rape but fled the state to avoid trial and died a fugitive pedophile. Anyone who supports the ad supports pedophilia.

It's extremely clear at this point that Todd Blanche has opened this probe for one reason: to block or subvert the real criminal investigation now underway headed by Raúl Torres, the attorney general of New Mexico. The technical term for what Blanche is doing is perverting the course of justice.

My thoughts on the Vivek Ramaswamy ad... Republicans choosing a child rapist and his enablers over his victims is the most on-brand thing MAGA could ever do. I’m only amazed that the rapist neither owns an island, is a Trump donor, nor is President of the United States himself.

I think the best way to frame it is this: if—simply hypothetically—Republicans were to do very poorly in the midterms, can anyone think of a single reason or a single precedent associated with Donald Trump that would cause him to accept the midterm election results? I feel like the chance is... 0%.
