Newsmax settles with Dominion Voting Systems for $67 million Newsmax settles with Dominion Voting Systems for $67 million

A judge ruled Newsmax broadcast false and defamatory statements in connection with the 2020 election.

Trump's media company just partnered with Newsmax to take it global.

Bill Barr—the AG when Epstein died—was in the hot seat today. But let me remind you: DOJ owes us the Epstein files beginning tomorrow. All of them. Client list included. (1/2)

Supreme Court caselaw suggests that this is almost certainly illegal.

If you live in Ohio, SC or WV you should be complaining to your governor nonstop about this.

Seems like the new MAGA brain implant chip is to say the whole red carpet soldiers in their knees thing is because it was a military base. This is completely false. It’s a choice.

Also Zelensky will be landing at Andrews. A military base. Let’s see if they do this for him.

If I got Russia to give up Moscow as part of the Deal, the Fake News, and their PARTNER, the Radical Left Democrats, would say I made a terrible mistake and a very bad deal. That’s why they are the FAKE NEWS! Also, they should talk about the 6 WARS, etc., I JUST STOPPED!!! MAGA

what land is Russia giving up as part of a deal? Ukrainian land they're illegally occupying does not count

RADDATZ: The president went in to that meeting saying he wanted a ceasefire and there would be consequences if they didn't agree on a ceasefire in that meeting, and they didn't agree to a ceasefire. Where are the consequences?

RUBIO: That's not the aim

RADDATZ: The president said that was the aim

So let's get this straight :

GOP Gov Mike DeWine of Ohio is sending National Guard troops to DC when cities in his own terribly run state have a higher crime rate than DC.

Welker plays Rubio a clip of him saying in 2022 that "you can't cut deals with guys" like Putin 😬

Chris Murphy: "The meeting was a disaster, it was an embarrassment for the United States ... Putin walks away with a photo op, with zero commitments made, and zero consequences. What a great day for Russia."

Chris Murphy: "Let's just look at the numbers. In Washington DC and all across the country, crime was going up during Donald Trump's first term, and when Joe Biden became president, crime started to go down ... he's just trying to distract from the stories he doesn't want Americans to talk about."

My law firm is currently litigating 50 voting and election cases in 22 states. Here are the states with the most cases: GA, AZ, FL, NC, LA, MT, NV, WI.

The fight for free and fair elections is the fight for democracy. Please, pay attention.

Crow: "Look at what happened. US military personnel in uniform literally were on hands & knees rolling out a red carpet for the most murderous dictator of the 21st century...we keep on acting like Putin deserves to be brought out in open like any of head of state. This is a historic embarrassment."

Hill: Trump asserted in his Fox interview there were no countries in the world that allow mail-in voting. Well, Russia allows mail-in voting.

Government papers found in an Alaskan hotel reveal new details of Trump-Putin summit Documents with sensitive details about the meeting between President Trump and Russian President Putin were left behind on a public hotel printer.

NPR: Papers with State Dept markings, found Friday morning in the biz center of an Alaskan hotel, revealed previously undisclosed, potentially sensitive details about the Putin-Trump Anchorage meeting. Incompetent sloppiness of the Trump regime sure makes me feel safe.

www.npr.org/2025/08/16/n...

EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas: Putin left Anchorage without any commitment to stop killing. “Russia has no intention of ending this war soon—Moscow launched new attacks even during the talks. The US has the power to force serious negotiations. Europe will push for a 19th sanctions package.”

SMITE!!!

Jeffries: "I'm not talking about ppl who are already wealthy & well-connected, I'm talking about everyday Americans I represent in Brooklyn & that we're fighting hard for. In fact, food is being ripped out of the mouths of hungry kids & seniors w/largest attack on nutritional assistance in history"

⚡ This is how you fight. All blue states, bring this same heat.

Violent Crime in D.C. Hits 30 Year Low Total violent crime for 2024 in the District of Columbia is down 35% from 2023 and is the lowest it has been in over 30 years, according to data collected by the Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) a...

Trump's own DOJ website still has a press release up from January pointing out that violent crime in D.C. is at its lowest in more than 30 years.

There are more than a million Dominicans in NYC, and yesterday on 6th Avenue I felt every bit of that pride.

Thank you for welcoming me in to celebrate the vibrant, beautiful culture and community that does so much for our city. 🇩🇴

Crime is down. But Trump's authoritarian power grabs are escalating. Random street crimes are being used as pretexts for repression.

"The events being seized upon by the White House and Republicans as evidence of surging crime in American cities have little to do with one another save for the fact that the victims are white."

If you know DC you understand how tremendously goofy this is

(h/t @lorenzohall1.bsky.social)

First it was troops in L.A., sent to provoke and assault peaceful protesters under the banner of “immigration enforcement.” Now it’s troops in our capital to disappear the homeless. See the pattern? Sooner or later, the monster comes for us all.
