The only reason I can think of for this news not being absolutely everywhere is that large media orgs don’t want to be seen as putting their thumbs on the scales a week before election day. And that’s cowardly as shit.
Beyond disgusted by even more rape allegations against the President of the United States. "In total, more than 25 different women...have independently accused Donald Trump of rape, sexual assault, or other sexual misconduct." Report w/ new details: democrats-judiciary.house.gov/sites/evo-su...

Dementia Donnie saw Pulp Fiction last night and thought it was reality.
Trump on DC: "Nobody wanted to eat out. They were afraid. Even if you were in the restaurant, people would walk in and like the Wild West, 'Hold it up!' Everybody is standing there. Can you imagine? A fancy restaurant. They were robbing the whole restaurant. It's crazy."

Because he's a moron who can't get his neckbearded head around the concept that all these elections are connected, because humanity is connected, which also means -- newsflash -- that these far-right movements are all connected? That beating them one place creates momentum for elsewhere? JFC.
Just two days after this thread, he illustrated my point perfectly. Neoliberalism is simultaneously naive and nihilistic

Donald Trump saying Barack Obama isn't a smart guy will be in heavy contention for 2026's Least Self-Aware Remark.
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"

I believe that DOJ has 30 days to get a grand jury indictment after charging on information unless Comey waived his right to a grand jury indictment, which I kind of doubt. That 30 days would expire 11/4. Is that correct @joycewhitevance.bsky.social @barbmcquade.bsky.social @rparloff.bsky.social ?
BREAKING: The DOJ has charged JAMES COMEY (on information, no grand jury indictment) with violations of the ESPIONAGE ACT going back to 2016. They charged this exactly 10 years after they allege the "crime" occurred: equal to the statute of limitations. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Gonna be really funny when he has to cough up $1 million to pay the person who caught a MAGA chud voting twice.
Trump: "Anybody reporting Voter Fraud in the past Elections, or the upcoming 2026 Midterm Election, will be paid $1,000,000 upon the arrest and conviction of those that created the Fraud! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP"

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

OMG these fking dorks are trying to get around the statute of limitations by filing a criminal information against Comey instead of an indictment www.courtlistener.com/docket/75021...

Awe, Garrett is huffing some heavy doses of Copium.
NEW: Garrett Langley, the CEO of Flock, told an audience of police chiefs at a private police conference Sunday that anti-Flock protests around the country are not real, according to leaked audio obtained by 404 Media. “It’s anonymous bots, and so it is not real,” he continued.

Wonder if there's something to look into here with the NYU of it all. His gigantic son goes to that school, which doesn't make much sense, considering what NYU is and what he is. Why?
NEW: "Donald Trump was an active participant in Jeffrey Epstein’s sexual abuse of young women during the mid-to-late 1990s," per new House Judiciary Dem report. Report has new allegation that Trump raped a 24-year-old and then promised the victim a visa & NYU admission, demanding she stay quiet.

The way pundits talk about "most Americans" is how an average Joe talks about zoo animals, extremely patronizing and also almost entirely wrong
"The party left me. I used to be a Democrat, but know that Obama has made fun of Trump for making the White House look like a dictator designed an over-the-top chain restaurant I favor starving African children and bringing measles back"

NEW on @zeteo.com — Venues are *pulling out* of hosting Vivek Ramaswamy for his bus tour across Ohio in the closing days of the election. “We’re getting calls that people don’t want him there,” a top Ohio Republican says. “It’s that damn ad.” From @andrewperez.bsky.social and @swin24.bsky.social:

If 98% of a country steals for a living and drive Mercedes, who are they stealing from? This is more made-up nonsense and thinly disguised racism.
Trump: "Somalia -- 98% of the people here now from Somalia don't work. They don't have to work because they steal so much. They all have a Mercedes Benz. Low IQ and they live better than you do."

probably you shouldn’t say that yeah
Trump: "Collins could call me anytime he wants. 'You gotta help the farmers!' ... there's a big difference between that and Pee Wee Herman calling. 'Tell him I'm not in!' 'But he needs money for Georgia.' 'I don't give a damn what he wants!' Probably I shouldn't say that."
