The citizen who yelled "Shove that ballroom up your fat ass" is, in this hard time, a patriot. Honestly, what is left to say about this level of misrule? What careful critique hasn't been already offered? What reasoned response to this full-on run at fascism and kleptocracy remained unspoken?

A patriot speaks out on behalf of all of us.

corporate media routinely describes Tim Scott as a moderate and celebrates his "relentless optimism"

CBS deleted this post and reposted it admitting that their original one was misleading. And the misleading post from CBS was intentionally misleading, not an innocent mistake. CBS continues to lose credibility.

The rank bigotry and ignorance, of course, but also it's quite something to see the world's most talentless nepo baby failson saying somebody else isn't accomplished enough

Yes, the Arabic people, famously bad at math. thats-racist-dot-gif

Roger Marshall says Adam Hamilton will let "radical Islums" into the country

The truest thing JD Vance has said in a long, long time.

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...

interesting

Flat-out, WILD LIE by the Bezos Post about Jen Kiggans (R-VA02), who votes 100% with Trump, is BFFs with Mike Johnson etc. This is in the "news" section BTW. F'ing joke. bluevirginia.us/2026/10/vide...

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.

GOP Rep. Randy Fine says he's been open to deporting Melania Trump and Elon Musk if it turns out they lied on their paperwork

In case facts still matter

Chaz Nuttycombe: “I think that the DC punditry class is pretty behind on where the actual state of play is here in Virginia. Everybody you talk to both sides of the aisle knows that Elaine Luria is heavily, heavily favored to beat Jen Kiggans in the second..." bluevirginia.us/2026/10/with...

Michigan voter: Tariffs ‘make who rich? [Trump], cause I haven’t seen anything out of this. I regret voting for him’

Lead headline on People’s website:

If you are a U.S. citizen abroad, you can vote! Go to votefromabroad.org.

Rally speaker: "Mike Rogers is an American. Abdul has a birth certificate. The birth certificate says he's a citizen of America. You know what? a birth certificate doesn't make you an American."

From a shithead president.

it's the degenerate racist version of going to see 90 year old Frankie Valli belt out teen tunes from 1960

Amazing how the Attorney General doesn't even pretend the job of the Justice Department is to enforce the law, it's just literally "If voters are confused and our party loses, that gives us a sad and it means the full force of the federal government must be brought to bear to undo the election"

He should go all in on this closing message I think it’s working

Melania taking credit for something the Pope did? I’m shocked.

Too true. Between appetizer and entree at the Old Ebbitt Grill two weeks ago, not only was I jacked up by a street gang for a watch and wallet, but then, as I was waiting, bereft, for a dessert menu, my youngest child was taken away by the kitchen staff and transitioned without informing me.

Some of the things that happen these days are like big broad plot points in a bad novel about the apocalypse, but some of the things that happen these days are like fine-grained vignettes in a good novel about the apocalypse

Trump wanted to create an Orban style autocracy & take away everyone’s liberties. But Orban knew u need to be popular when u put that into effect. But in just 20 months Trump failed so hard he’s more unpopular than any midterm Prez in 80 yrs. Chump just doesn’t have the cards. 🤣

Does not seem like she is in a position to provide informed consent. I would guess they got her to sign some kind of release but… It’s just so disgusting on a whole new level. Total scum.

They somehow tracked Acton’s birth mom down, found her living in a car with her cats, in a church parking lot, and took her to a video shoot to make vague accusations about her daughter, who she hadn’t seen in 40+ years, being a liar. Borders on elder abuse.

Hey Mohammed bin Salman! Still got the bone saws lying around? I have an idea for you.

All this time I never knew Clinton in 2000 could have directed DOJ to sue to make sure Florida election officials in Broward county were allowed to question voters on if they were confused by the ballot design when they voted for Buchanan.

This is a murder.

The Ramaswamy campaign not only tried to capitalize on a child rape victim, they did it by using an old homeless woman who—while vile—is in no mental shape to adequately understand the stakes. And did they pay her? Either answer is bad.

A lot of dictatorships try to make these kind of arrangements when things go south. Important to remember there are other kinds of criminal, civil and reputational accountability pardons can’t touch. And if you’re pardoned you have no 5th amendment rights.

Republicans really firing on all cylinders in this campaign www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

these people are shameless!

This new report today with my NYT colleague Anton Troianovski follows up on our earlier reporting this month on the Lukoil deal that would bring financial benefits to business partners of the Witkoff and Trump families. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/03/u...

Overall, we are seeing some very odd deal talks that are supposedly a part of ending the war in Ukraine. But in fact evidence shows these deals are structured (in the most recent case secretly until now) to financially benefit Russia or business partners of the Trump and Witkoff families.

So witkoff/kushner toadie sell out negotiations involves cutting Russian companies in on US energy deals? Are we giving Alaska back to Russia?
