Pentagon’s Signalgate Review Finds Hegseth Violated Defense Department Regulations Department watchdog also states as Pentagon chief, Hegseth has the authority to declassify information.

A Pentagon watchdog has found Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth violated some of the department’s regulations when he shared sensitive information from his cellphone on Signal earlier this year, according to Sen. Mark Kelly.

COLLINS: “You’re leaving the door open to potentially running again next year?”

AFTYN: “Perhaps, yeah. Absolutely.” 👀

Yeah isolation is one word for it.

Another is "apartheid".

The US put jury trials in our constitution in the 6th amendment to prevent shit like this.

White background, red ribbon. Text says “World AIDS Day”.

My wife has been HIV+ for 34 years. She’s alive today b/c work of activists who destigmatized the virus, pushed medical science to adapt & find ways to treat it, & advocated for gov health programs that helped fund her care. The current U.S. regime may want to go back in time, but we won’t let them.

In case you needed even more motivation to vote in the Midterm elections...

This is true. It is the best email I got this year.

NASHVILLE Senator @jeffyarbro.bsky.social on voting for @aftynbehn.bsky.social in TN-7: “You will never have a chance to have as much impact in an election as you do right now.”

Viktor Orban is currently having a coronary.

Exactly

The EPA will approve two new pesticides containing “forever chemicals” and relax a reporting rule for companies who make products with forever chemicals.

The moves come after a $60 million lobbying blitz from the forever chemical industry.

Where is the MAHA outcry?

This is who she was.
Passionate in her beliefs. Fiercely loyal to her friends. Never afraid to let you know exactly where she stood. The best.

Fun Fact: I remember arguing with her over which of us hated Piggy the most. I was sure I did. She disagreed. It remains unresolved...

Priorities.

AOC: "It is unconscionable that what we are debating right now is legislation that will give 8 senators over $1 million a piece & we're robbing people of their food assistance & healthcare to pay for it. How can we vote to enrich ourselves by stealing from the American people?"

It’s been 45 days since Adelita Grijalva was elected by the people of Arizona.

Mike Johnson is still refusing to swear her in because she’s the final vote for the discharge petition to release the Epstein files.

Congratulations to all the Democratic candidates who won tonight. It’s a reminder that when we come together around strong, forward-looking leaders who care about the issues that matter, we can win. We’ve still got plenty of work to do, but the future looks a little bit brighter.

This is the kind of thing which makes me think better things are possible.

They just gutted Teen Vogue which had top notch political journalism. The media is continuing to purge any sort of political dissent to Trump and the oligarchs.

Alt text: Screenshot of a Wall Street Journal article headline titled “The Growing Divide in the Rainbow Coalition.” The subheadline reads, “More gay people are speaking out against the gender ideology of trans and queer activists.” The article is categorized under “U.S.” and written by Pamela Paul, published on October 31, 2025, at 7:00 p.m. ET.

In which a straight woman highlights a bunch of known anti trans activists and claims there's a divide in the queer community.

It's pure propaganda and gaslighting.

Another host, Eugene Daniels, asked Mr. Cuomo what he meant by diversity being a “weakness.” “Diversity can be a weakness if you have antipathy among groups, Jonathan,” Mr. Cuomo said, mistaking Mr. Daniels for his co-host Jonathan Capehart, both of whom are Black.

You can't make this up.

I remember people screaming at Arab Americans in Michigan for "voting against their own interests" when they took an *actual* moral stand and refused to vote for a genocide enabler. Same folks are strangely quiet about Chuck Schumer openly siding with MAGA for what he believes is a moral stand.

What he said: 💯 🎯

Popok: The blue states and cities effectively brought the cases. The red states are suffering, and their AGs are sitting on the sidelines. There’s no red state that brought a case. Think about that: not one red state attorney general brought a case to help prevent starvation and suffering. None.
