John Oliver: “The Times had a panel this week of Trump voters who were undecided in this race, and when they were asked to describe Paxton, their answers were: Crook, criminal crook, crooked, bad, amoral, disgusting, morally corrupt, disgusting, corrupt, and womanizer crook.”

This is priceless. Check out how local news is reporting on Sen Eric Schmidt’s clown-show grilling of Jack Smith. They found Jack Smith at the game… “Top corner, section 109, row 1. In fact, that seat doesn’t even exist in Atlanta.”

Yes, Republicans deliberately wrote the OBBBA to delay the worst of the effects until after the midterms, hoping we’d forget about it in the meantime. They really are diabolical.

Mike Rogers has the audacity to lie to you about his plan like he didn't vote 4 times to stop you from getting cheaper medication from Canada, take $1M from Big Pharma, and vote 19 times to keep prescription drug prices higher. GTFOH.

Trump admin is sending out $500 checks to anyone over 400% of the poverty line or $63k/ yr. Overcharged by Biden Admin? Really? I call BS! It is another bribe before the midterms and another kick in the face to the poorest Americans! www.cnbc.com/amp/2026/09/...

America had wiped out measles. Now babies are infected at birth.

Congenital measles has rarely been seen in the U.S. That’s changing as vaccination declines and more pregnant women become infected.
