Men mocking women as “whores” while sexual violence against women and children continues to rise isn't harmless humour. It's misogyny, and it's dangerous. Stop pretending it's innocent.

Trump says he will issue sweeping preemptive pardons to everyone who worked in his administration if they are prosecuted
To be clear: Pardons only cover federal crimes and offer no protection from state prosecutions, civil suits or impeachment. nypost.com/2026/11/02/us-new…

As he loses it politically and mentally, Trump in his public speeches is "more profane, more absolutist, longer-winded and less coherent than he was in 2016." trib.al/ZEy8Wm2

A judge blocked the rush on unaccompanied children's asylum cases, a good thing but not enough. Not even children are spared by this administration. cgrs.uclawsf.edu/en/news/adv…

How the hell did this Administration allow a 28-year-old DOGE operative with zero government experience to take over USAID, fire thousands of federal employees, and shut down lifesaving aid programs around the world?
Not to mention that HR had zero record of him working there, he never completed his background paperwork to legally start working for the agency, and he didn’t even have an ID badge, because, officially, he didn’t exist as an employee.
And yet, all on his own, this man was given the go ahead to lock staff out of their own systems and use your taxpayer dollars to gut lifesaving programs with zero transparency.
The Trump Administration owes the American people and Congress answers. Who signed off on this? Why on earth was he given this kind of power?
This wasn’t an accident. Someone handed this man unchecked power, someone knew he wasn’t legally authorized to use it, and someone decided that there was nothing wrong with that.
Well, everything is wrong with that. Congress needs answers about this, and that is NOT optional.
