In a functioning government & decent society, everyone involved in this post would be fired & walked out of the building. But we are not a functioning government; we are not a decent society.
We don’t easily come back from all this. I’m not sure we even can at this point
Fake & Gay!
Moussa Diawara, the Malian national featured in this shockingly poorly researched @60Minutes report, now faces allegations of immigration FRAUD after his asylum application surfaced, revealing that he claimed to be a HOMOSEXUAL man who feared persecution in Mali.

So, thanks to Vivek Ramaswamy, Amy Acton is being asked about the well-documented abuse she suffered at the hands of her mother and her mother’s partner, a topic that has understandably generated sympathy for Acton.
This is happening in the final days of the campaign. Was this what he was hoping to achieve?
Having a survivor of horrific abuse talk about making it through?
That doesn’t sound like what one would want an opponent to talk about in the last eight days of a campaign.
Asked Ohio Dem gov nominee Amy Acton today about this answer from President Trump.
"The facts are: I was removed from custody from my mom. She was not well. From even a very young age, my brother and I experienced a lot of abuse and neglect, even before my stepfather. But my stepfather was not a good person, and it got worse then. He was indicted in a grand jury. He was a fugitive, and they left together."
"I have not seen her since I was 12 years old in a courthouse. So this is a sad story."

BREAKING: Judge Reyes has issued a preliminary injunction over the golf course and begins with this:
"Rarely, if ever, has the United States Department of Justice urged a federal court not to believe the sitting President."

The Ramaswamy ad has pushed the largest newspaper in Ohio, the Cleveland Plain Dealer, to reverse its position on endorsements.
"A candidate who uses childhood sexual abuse as a weapon against the person who endured it has crossed a line that Ohioans should defend, whatever their party. We are better than this. We have a responsibility to show it. Today we endorse Democrat Amy Acton for governor." cleveland.com/open/2026/10/w…

Worth noting that ahead of the second round, Lula's campaign dramatically upped its counter-algorithmic and digital mobilization game. They (belatedly) woke up to what they were facing, and fought it head on.

Not only is Trump's rant against Bill Maher the longest "Truth" he's ever posted, but it's almost double the length of the next-longest post (a June endorsement of Mike Collins).

Pretty big deal to see a pastor running as a Democrat in a red state say this
#KansasSenate
Adam Hamilton on transgender rights:
“I don’t think we should take a small group of people and bully them, pick on them, and hurt them. I understand one thing really clearly when it comes to transgender people, and that is Jesus told me I was to love my neighbor as I love myself.”
“I’m gonna love the trans person as well as the straight person, male or female. We have to do better than picking on small groups. What’s happened is we’ve turned a group of people into a campaign issue because it polls well.”

Brazil elected Lula again tonight.
Poll averages appear to have had Lula and Flávio Bolsonaro effectively tied, maybe Bolsonaro up 1 on Lula — so not sure why the markets had this race at 80-20 Bolsonaro.
Markets might miss big in the U.S. midterms in 9 days too.

This is so achingly obvious, it should be a litmus test for the midterms:
Who doesn’t see this as a serious national security liability, and how much did Elon contribute to your campaign?
After Elon Musk posted on X saying he had throttled Ukraine’s use of Starlink after it was used for offensive attacks, House Armed Services Committee member Rep. Jason Crow (D-CO) says the billionaire’s ability to wield that power is “beyond disturbing to me.”
“It cannot and should not be the case that a tech oligarch, a private citizen, who has that much control over our national security, who is unaccountable, who is unelected, with zero transparency, is making life and death decisions on the battlefield in systems that our service members and our partners and allies rely upon,” he adds.

After being cruelly used by the Ramaswami campaign, Amy Acton’s clearly distressed mother has reportedly been living with her cats in her car in a church parking lot in Pennsylvania. Did the Ramaswami campaign make any effort to improve the plight of this elderly woman they so ruthlessly exploited?

New: Sources from three countries confirm that the Trump Administration has advocated Viktor Orbán for UN Secretary-General.
The US has encouraged Orbán to enter the race, even bringing him the initial idea of a joint U.S.-Russia-China candidacy.

Vucic concedes defeat. The true scale of the Student List victory remains to be seen — but this a political earthquake for the Western Balkans.
Sincere congratulations to the citizens of Serbia who held out hope against hope and mobilized in extraordinary numbers.

HAPPENING NOW: A 9th Circuit panel (with 2 Trump appointees and 1 Biden appointee) seems overwhelmingly inclined to side with California and shoot down the Justice Department's bid to force California to segregate 20,000 ballots it has identified as likely noncitizens.

We don’t know if the early vote will be predictive bc all Reps could just be waiting to vote until Elec Day. What this means in practice is that to win, the GOP will have to have the most successful EDay mobilization operation in modern history — and that it’s completely stealth

The alleged quote in this viral meme by Mary Anne Trump about her son Donald Trump is fabricated.
There's no evidence that she ever made such a statement about her son. The alleged quote has been circulating online for years and has been repeatedly debunked.
Thank goodness, Google search hasn’t gone totally to shit. I found the image and the story. Mama didn’t think so highly of you. Damn did she nail it. 💯
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
No source shows Mary Anne Trump said this. The meme gives no source or date, and searches of news archives found no such statement. The quote has gone around online since at least 2019. factcheck.org/2019/12/dubiou… fullfact.org/online/donald-…
