Probably not his first indiscretion…she may not be shocked but hurting for her kids to see that.

Recall when we had a president who was a decent human being? Seems so remote and novel now.

I guess this means Epstein is on its way!!

A government office worker who helps seniors and the disabled with social security benefits shared her emotional response to the government shutdown. Essential government workers like her haven't been paid in four weeks. The pressure of it all has led to panic attacks: "We don't deserve this."

California – this Election Day, vote yes on Prop 50.

California’s Prop 50 says that if Republicans are going to abuse the system to try and hang onto power, we’re going to counteract that abuse and create a level playing field in the midterm elections.

Make a plan to vote yes on Prop 50.

In Virginia, the governor and attorney general races are especially important. In Pennsylvania, remember to vote YES on the retention of the Supreme Court justices on the ballot. In California, vote YES on Proposition 50.

Meiselas: The "$22 trillion" is a Trump Ponzi scheme. What he wants to do is string along people who are suffering the same way a Ponzi schemer does and says, “I’ve brought in this money. You’re just going to have to wait a year or two. You’re going to be so rich. I brought in all this money.”

The President of the United States is so upset about his failed campaign for a Nobel Prize that he's now trying to claim someone else's prize as his own.

Pathetic.

Camouflaging cars and swapping license plates: How agents make immigration arrests Immigration enforcement officers are sometimes forgoing license plates or otherwise masking their cars while apprehending migrants across the U.S.

Hurting Donnie’s feelings is now treason.

When Dems take over, they MUST have the balls to reverse all this. Someone has to be keeping record, there's SO MUCH to repair. None of the usual bygones will be bygones that Dems always do because it comes back 10 fold worse!!

I’m still shocked that stories like this which come out daily still get largely ignored. The most corrupt person to ever hold any public office in US history. I will keep posting them every day and try to amplify them, even when most media doesn’t care. www.wsj.com/finance/curr...

It's really profound. It became painfully clear in 2016.

I always get drawn back to Al Gore telling voters that he’d only raise taxes on the top 1% and then after the election a poll showed that something like 20% of voters thought they were in the top 1% and another 20% thought they would be in the next five years. Just a total tragic disconnect.

Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) declaring he won't call the House of Representatives into session until JANUARY at the earliest, means this isn't a shut-down.
This is a #RepublicanCOUP.

Never in the history of the US has any president openly and repeatedly called for the investigation, arrest & prosecution of his political opponents. While many continue to shrug these things off and normalize them, I will never stop pointing out that this is what autocrats do.

uh-oh. turns out the mortgage document that the DOJ is alleging was fraudulent b/c great niece paid some rent (great niece testified she didn't) refers to "short-term rentals," which seems to blow DOJ theory that it could't be rented out of the water. Another disaster of a case.

A long-deranged and deeply depraved man with a pronouncedly and acceleratingly deteriorating mind announces that he intends to play with the large arsenal of nuclear weapons he controls.

But it's okay, because he's not seeking a third term.

Absolutely correct!! 😆

"To any governors or state legislators out there... if you are in a position where you have the power to redraw your maps... if you have the ability to meet this moment with the urgency that it deserves, I'm calling on you to do exactly what we're doing in California and to fight fire with fire."

Wishing all my friends in the United States a happy National Cat Day. We don't have a National Cat Day in the UK, just a National Cat. Me.

HAPPENING NOW: Portland Police Commander Franz Schoening testifies that federal officers on Oct. 18 barraged protesters with crowd control munitions — not because of any violence but because another federal officer accidentally shot tear gas onto the roof of the ICE facility.

The federal government keeps labeling everyone they go after as cartel members — and it keeps being proven false. These are the same people we’re supposed to trust when they execute people at sea under that very justification?

Every dime they can steal.

Trump’s New Rules Will Wreck People’s Credit New guidance will bar states from removing medical debt from people’s credit reports.

The thing about credit reports and scores is that they are used for so much more than getting more credit. Landlords, employers, and other people in positions of power also weaponize you, so medical debt here can be catastrophe for your whole life.

Ioffe: I don't think that what's being done to the white house, you don't do that, if you think that anybody else is going to inhabit this thing after you and if you are planning on leaving power.

The federal criminal justice system is being systematically dismantled and destroyed piece by piece and turned into a mob boss’s network of corrupt consiglieres and thugs, where good people simply doing their jobs are rooted out and eradicated.
