U.S. government pays for 2025's most expensive political ad campaign The next closest ad campaign is the $41 million effort to support California's redistricting measure.

The most expensive political ad campaign of the year is being run by the Department of Homeland Security, spending at least $51 million on ads thanking President Trump for securing the border.

The federal food program helping more than 1 in 4 young children access fresh produce, milk, and formula will run out of funding next week.

Over 5 million children could lose food assistance — all thanks to the Trump-Republican shutdown.

The cruelty is endless.

Often Overlooked, Diane Keaton Was Essential to ‘The Godfather’ Saga The star’s emotional transparency and expressive eyes helped us see the Corleones as both fascinating and repellent, just as her character did.

Diane Keaton’s ability to show you a character’s vulnerability was as striking as her gift for showing you what can lie beneath such sensitivity, including neediness at its rawest and most acutely exposed, our chief film critic Manohla Dargis writes.

Pritzker: "You just heard a tidal wave of lies from the VP. It's a bit shocking. And you heard over & over him just making things up. There's a reason why the judge here in federal court said that they admin lacks credibility and why even the Nobel committee chair said the admin lacks integrity."

I’m sure the corrupt members of SCOTUS will rule that he has the power.

No, Speaker Johnson: The No Kings Rally on October 18 is not a “hate America” rally. Quite the contrary. It’s a rally of millions of people who believe in American freedom and are not going to allow you and President Trump to turn us into an authoritarian country.

House Recess Extended to Oct. 19 As Government Shutdown Continues The House clerk reads a communication from Speaker Mike Johnson designating October 14 to 19 a district work period for members, meaning that the House will be in recess except for pro forma sessions ...

Mother fucker! The House has been in session only 15 days since July.

Its October!

GOP are loser slackers! Imagine if you only showed up to your job 15 days in 4 months.
They get 175k a year in salary.

Everything Trump is doing now is a preamble for his regime's real goal: to invoke the Insurrection Act.

I don’t want to unduly alarm you, but you need to be aware of this imminent danger. Let me explain what’s going on.
