Dr. Tea, Cake, & Revolution.

The last, best description of Trump from British writer Nate White.

That's Me by Louie Zong

What in the ever loving racist incorrect mouth dropping is this??? The Arab world “produces” plenty of “science”… which is all the more impressive since the West periodically bombs all their shit.

Witkoff is only seeing $$$ and that multibillion dollar deal involving the sale of Lukoil, its oil refineries, gas stations & global oil fields. The deal involves Sheikh Tahnoon who invested $500 mi into World Liberty Financial, Trump's cryptocurrency business that was co-founded by Steve Witkoff.

Trump's peace envoy praised Putin as a "humanitarian." Putin has killed more people on this planet than anyone else this century (Syria, Chechnya, Georgia, Ukraine, Africa) and Steve Witkoff worships and admires him.

This picture put such a smile on my face! What a beautiful first family!

Alaska authorities strongly oppose the Trump DOJ’s attempted “interference” in the election. This is significant because there were concerns the state—which sought to DQ the second Sullivan—would take the same side. But it didn’t. Quite the contrary. buff.ly/EJHtDpX

Slaughterhouses

Bowie says TIKOO

Crudest? This campaign isn't crude, it's a colonoscopy of American masculinity where nobody sedated the patient. What makes this cycle uniquely vulgar isn't just the insults — it's the petulance. This is two men running a re-election campaign for a movement that already died.

I don't think there's been a cruder or coarser campaign than Trump and Vance's this year.

🚨BREAKING: We have moved for a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction enjoining Trump from continuing to unconstitutionally impose themselves upon election administration procedures that the Constitution and federal law assign to the States.

BREAKING: We're asking the Office of Special Counsel & State Dept IG to investigate reports that diplomats' promotions hinge on how they vote & who they donate to If true, that's a political loyalty test & the law bars it @democracydefendersfund.org complaint 👇

A new rape allegation against Donald Trump. A House Judiciary Democrats’ report alleging he participated in Epstein’s abuse. And a call for a special counsel to investigate. How many more women have to come forward before accountability catches up with power. #ProudBlue #Voices4Victory

I get they're inextricably intertwined but I kind of feel like leaning so much into how he was the longtime best buddy of the world's most notorious sex criminal has given it something of the feel of a political gotcha rather than the important part, which is that the president raped people.

I know there's a lot going on but I feel it should probably be more of an above-the-fold story that members of Congress released a thoroughly documented report directly accusing the president of the United States of being a serial rapist.

While on a train traveling between airport terminals, saw this ICE agent traveling as well, and snapped a photo of his arm patch. If you need evidence that the federal government now has a military presence in America, this is it. #NeverForget #ICE #ncpol

We’re going to flip Congress, end the corruption tax, and lower costs for you and your family.

So petty. So personal. Pretty soon Trump will be like Caligula, who is said to have had a nephew executed because he had an irritating cough (cf. Robert Graves).

A federal appeals court has rejected the Trump administration's unprecedented attempt to force California to set aside votes from 20,000 people it claims are noncitizens. https://cnn.it/4i8Q3P7

NEW: "Trump claimed Monday that Brazil’s presidential election, which leftist President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva won, looked like it was “rigged” without citing evidence." Trump will 100% say this after the midterm when GOP gets crushed. Be prepared! www.politico.com/news/2026/10...

60 people have now died in ICE custody since Trump's return to office. Our country is set to spend $268 BILLION on mass deportations and detentions through the end of Trump's term. Instead of death and cruelty, imagine what we could have invested that money in instead?

So Trump's obviously mad about Maurene Comey getting her job back, with back pay, too. So attacking James Comey sounds like a good idea to him.

A week from tomorrow is the beginning of the END of the Orange Atrocity! 🍊 💩 #voteVoteVOTE

10 years ago today, Trump’s DC hotel opened. It taught him people will pay a sitting president, and there will be no repercussions. Want to understand the second term’s corruption? Start with the hotel:

Who does the ocean belong to? I asked Otto Spijkers of Leiden University to explain the law of the sea, from territorial waters and fishing rights to deep-sea resources and international disputes. We also built a glossary to make the key terms easy to follow. ⬇️🌊

He'll be shocked to learn that, in 2020, someone tried to convince the Georgia Secretary of State to fraudulently add 11,780 votes to Trump's count. The guy who did that should be in jail. Can I get the $1,000,000 for reporting that? Does it matter that I'm Canadian?

Lord I see what Brazil and Serbia have and I want it for myself

Trump’s henchmen can go to state prison for rigging this election. And Trump can’t save them. open.substack.com/pub/defiance...

It's really damning. The accusations are numerous and well-supported. But I was really struck by the descriptions of Trump's behavior -- the name dropping, strong-arming, and attempts to buy off silence. His gross rivalry with Epstein. It's all so familiar. It's shit he's been doing his entire life.

One reason I talk about status anxiety is because it folds in economic concerns without reducing people to strictly financial interests. www.thebulwark.com/p/trump-secr...

I understand the appeal of “it’s all dragon logic, they just want to keep their money.” But this does miss the sincerely held beliefs of these absolute weirdos and inveterate authoritarians.

OK, boomer….

Lula's message was we have power and we're going to use it.

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...

U.S. military forces are reportedly positioned to launch a major new offensive against Iran within 96 hours of President Donald Trump's order, raising questions about the timing of a possible escalation after Americans vote on November 3....

Bolsonaro's loss is not just a loss for Bolsonaro. It's a loss for Trump. For Musk. For Milei. For Netanyahu. For Farage. For Meta and Zuckerberg. For the meat barons, the fossil fuel corporations, and the rest of the neocolonial looters. And it is a massive win for humanity and the living planet.

Backlash to data centers might very well be the biggest issue in the midterms, with nearly 70 percent of Americans opposing them. Is it any wonder why?

When Republicans assert that they'll be immune from accountability even in defeat, and Dems say it's a distraction from prices, it's like watching a computer play chess—maybe "right" on a scoring system. But fully drained of the moral force that drives politics. www.offmessage.net/p/wheres-the...
