While some Republicans are denouncing Ramaswamy's recent ad, Donald Trump is standing beside him – along with Amy Acton's mother and Acton's step father – in full-throated support. Why? Because Trump is guilt of similar crimes.

BASH: What's the crime? AG TODD BLANCHE: What's the crime? Well it depends. There *could* be a crime. But the real wrong here is that Alaskans are gonna be confused. BASH: The Alaskan Supreme Court ruled 4 months ago on this matter

Total respect for NBC's Monica Alba, who asked Trump exactly the question he needs to answer. By refusing to answer, and attacking her, he has effectively told the world that no, sexual abuse allegations do no mean a thing to him. Imagine if she wasn't there. We'd be the poorer for it.

😳 WOMAN REPORTER: Do sexual abuse allegations mean nothing to you, sir? TRUMP: Wait. Wait! Wait wait wait. Slow down. Who are you with? REPORTER: NBC, sir. But they are very serious sex abuse allegations TRUMP: Quiet! Isn't she a fresh person? You're a horrible little reporter, aren't you?

Trump is a despot. He answers only to Putin and Netanyahu – because they both have Kompromat on him worse than most people can imagine.

Poland’s Foreign Minister Sikorski: basically calling Trump a liar. “The US no longer finances this war since January of last year. In other words, for more than a year and a half. The US has not contributed a single cent to the defense of Ukraine. We are doing it. Europe.”

I wonder why wealthy celebrities who promote gambling think they'll live richer lives by making a lot of people poorer.

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.

Thomas Teepell is the son of a former long-time Bobby Jindal staffer who's close to Sean Feucht.

Fair Q

Bessent cannot answer the question (which should be an emphatic "YES!") because his cult leader would not like it. And Trump wouldn't like it because Donald is Putin's puppet. And Trump is a Putin's puppet because Putin has Kompromat on Trump – Kompromat worse than you can imagine.

Bessent repeatedly refuses to say that Ukraine is still a US ally: "President Trump has made clear that he wants to end this war, that it must stop ... I'm not the secretary of state. I'm not the president."

DHS is investigating 150+ nonprofits who want all eligible voters to exercise their right to vote. Additionally, a Trump-aligned election denier at DHS compiled 48.4 million voter records for federal investigators. This is straight out of the authoritarian playbook. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/07/u...

it feels like a great crisis in American History education in this country that there needs to be a spokesperson for promoting secular government

The Washington Post@washingtonpost.com · 2mo ago

Rep. Jared Huffman (D-California) has become a kind of spokesperson for promoting a secular government. As many Americans say they're increasingly displeased with how religion and politics are mixing, he sees an opportunity for his cause.

On @outfrontcnn.bsky.social, @jreinermd.bsky.social asks a pretty good question here: “Why is it acceptable in this country at this time—in this perilous time—for the president of the United States to have a dramatic problem staying awake?”

Why have 3 #veterinarians not been able to diagnose why this little guy's eyes have clouded over in the last 4 years? It's not cataracts. He is reactive and I think more so since the clouding got worse. He's a 7 yo rescue. Any vets out here in the blue can offer guidance? 😔 #dogs #veterinary
