Opinion | Why Trump Can Do No Wrong If there is no cover-up, then there must not have been a crime.

In @nytopinion.nytimes.com

“Who needs Congress — or the law for that matter — when the president is in command?” our columnist David French writes. “Even when it comes to matters of war and peace, MAGA defers to the man who tells them exactly what they want to hear.”

The one thing I know to be true is that there are too many people with small minds that are only able to fit a very narrow world view.

Trump hosts a $3.4 million Great Gatsby themed Halloween party at Magalago.

The Republican Party does not exist.
You were able to respectfully disagree with Republicans.
This party is now so immoral and corrupt, they have to pretend to be Christians to appear righteous.
It’s not working.
They even support PDFiles now.

If Trump were given a diagnosis of a terminal disease.

He’d destroy the world.

This is the truth of the man we put in charge of nuclear weapons

Opinion | This Is the Way You Beat Trump — and Trumpism Democrats do not just need to win more people. They also need to win more places.

In @nytopinion.nytimes.com

The Democratic Party doesn’t need to move left or right, it needs to get bigger, our columnist Ezra Klein writes. “That is the spirit it needs to embrace. Not moderation. Not progressivism. But, in the older political sense of the term, representation.”

Food Stamp Cuts Expose Trump’s Strategy to Use Shutdown to Advance Agenda The president has stretched the limits of his powers to help those at the heart of his agenda, not the many in greatest need.

News Analysis: President Trump has used the federal shutdown to help those at the center of his agenda, not for the millions of Americans relying on food stamps.

Few places have felt the effects of President Trump’s retribution campaign as palpably as the U.S. attorney’s office in Washington, which is deeply enmeshed in the workings of government and has filed criminal cases against the president. nyti.ms/3LsfblX

@gavinnewsom.bsky.social: "The derangement that Trump is going to use hunger during the holidays, as he's celebrating a $350 million monstrosity of a ballroom, while he's demanding $230 million from the American people for some tithing because he's feeling aggrieved about legal affairs in the past."

O'DONNELL: Americans have been watching videos of ICE tackling a young mother, tear gas being used in a Chicago residential neighborhood, and the smashing of car windows. Have some of these raids gone too far?

TRUMP: No. I think they haven't gone far enough.

Is there ever going to be an interviewer who pushes back and tells him that immigrants seeking asylum is different than insane asylums?

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.

The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.

Read that back.

When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

ICE again prevents Chicago Catholics from bringing Eucharist to immigrant detainees More than 2,000 faithful gathered to pray outside the Broadview ICE Detention Center Nov. 1, but the group's main request — to bring Communion to detainees — was rejected by federal immigration offici...

After repeatedly requesting permission and following all the official guidelines, Catholic bishop, priests, sisters and lay people were refused permission to distribute Communion to migrants in ICE detention center, on All Saints Day. A religious freedom issue: www.ncronline.org/news/ice-aga...

Audacity? 🙄

‘S.N.L.’ Holds Its Own Debate of New York City Mayoral Hopefuls Andrew Cuomo (Miles Teller, the host), duked it out with Zohran Mamdani (Ramy Youssef) and Curtis Sliwa (Shane Gillis). George Santos was back with a confession.

“Saturday Night Live,” hosted by Miles Teller and featuring the musical guest Brandi Carlile, began with a satirical debate among the three major candidates for New York City mayor. Here’s a full episode recap.

Immigration crackdowns have transformed life in Bell Gardens, California. Some early voters said that anger and frustration over months of aggressive immigration enforcement motivated them to participate in this year’s election. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/02/u...

JESUS CHRIST! We Just Fed 100,000 People! Bless you all!

I know the world won’t care because it’s not some EVIL thing Trump just did, but yesterday I marathon streamed for 11 hours and raised $10,000 for Feeding America, which they say will provide 100,000 meals for people in need.

@gavinnewsom.bsky.social: "Where's Donald Trump? He's not out here campaigning 'NO ON 50.' He's not campaigning for Republican candidates in NJ and VA. No one wants to be seen with him. That's how historically weak he is."

Robert Reich The Fight Against Trump Isn’t Over

This Tuesday, November 4th, is a HUGE election day in NYC, Minneapolis, VA, NJ, TX, and CA.

The fight for a brighter future continues at the ballot box.

Rolling recession goes prime time. #econsky

Ahahahahaha.

Make no mistake. They are desperately seeking to elevate JDV hoping he will be embraced by m@ga and oust his wife because she is brown.

It’s not going to happen.
