The guy didn’t even delete it! It was only taken down after it made the news!

Republican Candidate in Virginia Caught in Tumblr Nazi Porn Scandal John Reid has found himself in quite a scandal, as others call on him to resign from the race.

It’s even crazier because the Virginia GOP has known about this guy’s Tumblr account for *months* — they found it during their own internal vetting research this April

Thank you for your email. There is a temporary shutdown of the U.S. government due to a lapse in appropriations. I will respond to your message as soon as possible after the temporary shutdown ends. Please visit ED.gov for the latest information on the Department's operational status. Thank you.

Thank you for contacting me. On September 19, 2025, the House of Representatives passed H.R. 5371, a clean continuing resolution. Unfortunately, Democrat Senators are blocking passage of H.R. 5371 in the Senate which has led to a lapse in appropriations. Due to the lapse in appropriations I am currently in furlough status. I will respond to emails once government functions resume.

NEW—US Department of Education sent out standard Out of Office language to employees on Wednesday in light of shutdown. Later yesterday, workers tell me they found someone had updated their auto-responses without consent to a new one blaming Democrats.

Version of original on left, updated on right:

No one signed this trash, and the Pentagon is now going to be “clarifying its terms”

Jeez. Trump’s first-term El Salvador ambassador, in 2020, fired a U.S. embassy contractor at the request of the president of El Salvador because the contractor was investigating his ties to MS-13. This term, the ambassador — Ronald Johnson — is Trump’s ambassador to Mexico.

I say this as a former student of his, Scott Jennings is the most disingenuous person I've met in my entire life.

In 2023, DHS Inspector General found ICE broke the law when using location data harvested from phones, saying ICE “did not have sufficient policies & procedures in place to ensure that the location data was used appropriately.“

The Biden White House then killed the program. Trump started it back up

ICE to Buy Tool that Tracks Locations of Hundreds of Millions of Phones Every Day Documents show that ICE has gone back on its decision to not use location data remotely harvested from peoples' phones. The database is updated every day with billions of pieces of location data.

New: ICE has bought a tool that tracks the locations of hundreds of millions of phones globally, updates every single day. Usually harvested from apps and advertising

If it’s Option B, I wonder what the NYT editorial team would think if they knew they’d publishing something that fundamentally dishonest, intentions aside — which may explain his blindly and publicly doubling down on the premise. I’d like to hear someone ask him when he learned about the Jan 6 stuff

It doesn’t seem Ezra Klein knew very much about the things Charlie Kirk actually said and did when he wrote that piece, and the interview with Coates suggests he still hasn’t dug too deep. Either that or the piece is a deeply cynical, bad-faith attempt at bridge-building

Will say yet again that it seems Ezra Klein still may not even be aware that Charlie Kirk was an unrepentant 2020 election denier who fundraised for the Jan 6 rally & literally bused people to DC — a well known, clear fact that by itself undermines approximately all of Ezra’s argument

Spent the last decade reading conservative blogs use the word "Orwellian" more than they used the word "the" and now they're literally just saying "War is Peace" out loud in front of everybody.

thank u for attending my mandatory ted talk about war, push-ups, and whiny girls

YouTube video by PBS NewsHour WATCH: Trump touts his efforts to fight 'a war from within' in cities across the U.S.

Trump, speaking very clearly, not joking in any way at all, to hundreds of his top military commanders and their advisers: You will deploy to American cities led by my political opponents to fight “a war from within.”

Trump is releasing Amelia Earhart records for no reaso….. oh of course

yes in fact that is a photo I took earlier this year of my gun in my condo located within the jurisdiction of the Washington DC attorney general

Today, Rep. Cory Mills had the second hearing in his restraining order case. Remarkably, in that hearing, Mills seems to have openly and unhesitatingly admitted — under oath — to what seems like felony firearms possession in Washington, D.C.

(Bessent, of course, is now Trump's Treasury Secretary)

Here's a non-paywalled link to my reporting last year about Bessent's long, close working friendship with Soros web.archive.org/web/20240209...

Donald Trump has directed DOJ to investigate George Soros's philanthropy & political funding — donations that stretch back decades, when Soros and his young protege named Scott Bessent built that empire, with Bessent becoming a billionaire political funder himself

Why didn’t The Hill or anybody look at what actually went down instead of taking at face value an email from Cory’s attorney that on its face didn’t actually tell the story that they put in the headline???

Last month, Rep. Cory Mills—facing a restraining order—planted an email saying DC police closed their probe into his girlfriend’s assault allegation (later recanted). Headlines said “DC police closed the case.” Turns out the police presented the case to DC US Attorney—Jeanine Pirro—who made the call

Miss United States Files Restraining Order Against GOP Rep. Cory Mills Lindsey Langston reported the Florida Republican to law enforcement for harassment last month.

Here's more about Cory Mills and the restraining order case. Again, his cross-examination is scheduled for Friday. He tried to push back the first hearing and failed. dropsitenews.com/p/miss-unite...

It's unclear who paid for Mills' trip this time. Apparently he tried rounding up a group of Reps weeks ago. He also seems to have spent a lot of time today in a viral twitter fight about his stolen valor issues with Nancy Mace, halfway around the world. Let's see if he makes his cross-examination

In July Naemo started a nonprofit in Florida called the "American Syrian Chamber of Commerce Inc" with a business partner, the guy who owned the Pulse Nightclub. Cory Mills' campaign also paid the Pulse owner for direct mail services in irregular lump sums search.sunbiz.org/Inquiry/Corp...
