Beatrice Keul, testified that she was introduced by Jeffrey Epstein to Donald J Trump, who then brutally raped her in a hotel room in Atlantic City, NJ, and her claims were deemed credible by a panel of the House Judiciary Committee today. The NYT has decided that this is not reportable news.

Both Brazil and Serbia defeated fascism today and chose democracy instead. The United States must be next.
Flávio Bolsonaro just lost in Brazil. Viktor Orban lost in Hungary. On Tuesday Benjamin Netanyahu will lose in Israel. Come next Tuesday we will win the midterms and take first step to destroying MAGA and putting Trump in prison! (That must be our goal)

So, what if Dan S. Sullivan wins by a slim margin? How will we know he wasn't pushed over the line by people who meant to vote for the independent, Dan J. Sullivan, Jr.? Hopefully, he'll get creamed and this won't even be a conversation, ridiculous as it is. www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

In its ongoing quest to suppress votes and maintain white supremacy in government, the Trump admin is trying to change the #Census in ways that are unconstitutional. The proposed rule would eliminate collection of race/ethnicity data, stop counting non-citizens without a green card, and /1

Tropical Storm Vance has formed in the Pacific Ocean.
This woman is exactly the sort of evil troll she appears to be.
Wrote last week on The Rooster about Conman cutting an ad with Amy Acton's estranged mother as his "October surprise." Well, here it is. Polling on it just went out.

This guy gets more deplorable by the day.
Vance just held an outrageous presser in which he defended Vivek's vile attacks on Acton, agreed w/ Witkoff's assessment of Putin as a "humanitarian," and had gall to claim "there's no person who hates people enriching themselves fraudulently over access to the govt than Donald J Trump" Supercut:
Vivek is vile. It’s a horrible ad. But the good news is that the ad will destroy him.
Vivek Ramaswamy is a truly pathetic excuse for a man.
Yeah I’ve never heard any of my family disavow it. Damn. You think you know people.

Can we form a committee to remove Trump on this grounds, chaired by Lisa Cook?
In 1993, Trump signed a mortgage for a Florida home, pledging it would be his principal residence. Seven weeks later, he attested a neighboring property would also be his principal residence. In reality, he does not seem to have lived in either home. (Published Dec. 2025)
