Michigan Senate candidate Mike Rogers and his wife held up to $2.6 million in companies that could benefit from AI-friendly policies. Our investigation: www.levernews.com/days-after-t...

The long-serving strongman leader of Serbia, Aleksandar Vucic, conceded defeat in an election that pitted him and his right-wing party against a diverse student-led opposition movement that spent two years protesting his government. https://cnn.it/3UQYxBz

John Roberts has spent his entire career trying to kill the Voting Rights Act. Now his Republican-appointed majority is dusting off arguments once used to destroy Reconstruction to roll back the gains made during the civil rights era.

This chart about data center construction blew my mind. Watch.

Here's how private equity killed your local mall.

Trofimov is correct: the key takeaway from the FT's blockbuster story is that the Trump family and cronies were exercising direct private control over this massive Alaska project, and they were using that control to benefit the Kremlin. Plain as day. But NYT couldn't understand what was happening.

"The venture was launched with the involvement of Gentry Beach, an investor with ties to Donald Trump’s family." Beach is a longtime friend of TrumpJr and was a guest at his recent island wedding financed by Russian mobster Umar Kremlëv at which at last ten Russian intel agents were present.

A Russian energy giant secretly financed a US gas project in Alaska, while that same project was being discussed by Putin with Witkoff and Kushner as part of talks supposedly aimed at ending Russia’s war in Ukraine. The US company’s CEO resigned after discovering the Russian money.

Trump said he had to takeover Greenland to keep China and Russia out. And then he snuck Russia onto the North Slope. Literally just ... inviting them in. www.ft.com/content/e9cf...

New Trump rule allows hunters to bait bears in Alaska with doughnuts, bacon and more

🚨BREAKING: On behalf of Mary Peltola's campaign and the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, Elias Law Group has filed to fight DOJ's lawsuit to rig the Alaska Senate election. We will win this case, Mary will win this election, she will be certified and seated.

Barack Obama just delivered a blistering rebuke of Trump's actions against Ilhan Omar. This is worth reading in full.

The “Tommy” shown in this viral video from Abdul El-Sayed is a former staffer for Sen. Josh Hawley and the son of a GOP strategist. For nearly five minutes, El-Sayed questioned the man about his understanding of the Constitution and the religious freedom it affords all Americans. Simply brilliant.

Steve Schmidt is spot on — Trump had his fun. America got the bill. steveschmidt.substack.com/p/trump-had-...

AI shouldn't be able to fire you, fire a weapon, or deny you healthcare.

Meta took down the No Kings organizing page today - the biggest day of protest this fall. They provided zero explanation. It stayed down for the entire afternoon until most of the protests were done. Outrageous. Put this on the January investigation list.

🔥 “You voted to cover up the evidence even though you knew 14-year-old girls had been raped because Donald Trump told you to.” Sen. @ossoff.bsky.social savages Mike Collins to his face on the debate stage

Holy shit. Every single Democrat: This is the message. This right here. This is the whole ass pitch the voters in the weeks before the election.

Friends — It's time to defund Elon Musk. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/defund-musk

The Big Ugly Bill cut taxes for the richest people in America. It is the biggest wealth transfer from poor folk to rich folk that we've seen.

This is quite extraordinary. I don't think I have heard a more coherent, articulate and accurate deconstruction & demolition of Nigel Farage's ReformUK, Tory & Restore policy than this. In under 85 seconds! @rafaelbehr.bsky.social is on here folks and worth a follow.

Under Trump: -Gas prices are up 43.7% -Grocery prices are up 3.7% -Household electricity prices are up 12.7% -Healthcare costs are up 14.6% -Childcare costs are up 7.6% -Rent is up 5.1% and mortgage rates are at 7.6% Tired of "winning" yet?

Here’s Kash Patel

Netflix is laying off 1,000 workers — its largest layoff ever. In 2025, Netflix had a net income of $11 billion (up 26%). Its CEO was paid $53M (255x more than the median employee). And it just raised prices for the second time in just over a year. Corporate greed in a nutshell.

Billionaire families have spent $1.7 BILLION on the 2026 midterms so far — a 5,200% increase since the 2010 midterms. Citizens United is among the worst decisions in history. It corrupts our system every day. Big Money is the root of our dysfunction.

Breaking news: UK Prime Minister Andy Burnham has accused Moscow of meddling in the 2016 Brexit referendum and warns European voters of the Russian threat ft.trib.al/ucfuDpV

Russia has been at war with Britain for years and the EU referendum was an open goal which they exploited. That doesn't mean that "Putin made Brexit happen" but his troll farms and media operations certainly played a part Brexiters may hate to hear it but to deny it is to deny a dangerous reality.

“These things are important now to put clearly on the record and, I believe, help voters in Germany and France understand that some of this politics is instigated via our enemies, namely Russia," the Observer reports Burnham saying.

some of us worked this out a decade ago but it’s refreshing to see a prime minister say it out loud

Andy Burnham says it is clear Russia interfered in Brexit vote

NEW: Prime Minister Andy Burnham finally breaks a decade of UK govt silence…& reveals there was ‘clear’ Russian interference in the Brexit vote. 1/

Brexit is forever tainted with disinformation, foreign interference, murky vested interests, ugly prejudice, unforgivable costs and now deep unpopularity. If you really cared about our country and wanted to fix its problems, you’d admit this… Good that Burnham is finally doing so…

See the difference? 👀

While RFK Jr.'s been shouting "Make America Healthy Again" from the rooftops, over 160 foods have been recalled so far this year. There’s nothing healthy about food-borne illness.

You think this regime can't get any more cartoonishly evil, but then it finds a way. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/16/c...

I remember when polio put my friends into iron lungs. We lined up at school to get vaccinated. We eradicated the disease. We protected the common good and saved lives. Now, two MORE unvaccinated people have died from measles. What RFK Jr. is doing to public health in America is a disgrace.

Brilliant @warren.senate.gov !

Trump’s EPA will no longer limit pollution from gas and coal-burning power plants. Reminder: Trump took millions of dollars in donations from Big Oil, and his EPA chief Lee Zeldin is cozy with the coal industry. Is there anything this regime won’t destroy to please its bankrollers?

Trump says AI doesn’t need guardrails — only a “strong and smart” president. He just so happens to be heavily invested in some of the biggest corporations pushing AI. Why should we trust him to protect the public when his own financial benefit is at stake?

With 50 days until the midterms, I urge you all to: 1) Help get out the vote. 2) Protect our electoral machinery from interference. 3) Not succumb to complacency, defeatism, or cynicism. We are the only ones who can end this nightmare. We are the leaders we’ve been waiting for.

This was the video I was looking for yesterday to post. I follow Joshua Wright on instagram because we are both passionate about saving old trees. This was an ancient forest valley that was recently logged on Vancouver Island. They cut down one of the largest Yellow Cedar tree in Canada. 😢

This iconic 1971 photo of Gloria Steinem and Dorothy Pitman Hughes has always said so much without saying a word. Two women. Two raised fists. One shared fight for equality. Dorothy passed in 2022. Now Gloria is gone too. Two giants who helped change America. Rest in power, Gloria. ✊🏼✊🏾

As we elders, our daughters, and our granddaughters continue the fight for power, equality, and respect, we hold you in our hearts with love and gratitude. Rest in peace and power, Gloria Steinem. 🤍

Uber just announced it will lay off 10% of its workforce, or around 3,300 workers. Last year, Uber CEO Dara Khosrowshahi made $35M — 360 times his median employee's pay — and announced a $20B stock buyback program to further enrich shareholders and himself. Textbook corporate greed.
