Republicans in the senate who wrecked the economy, exploded the deficit, gave tax cuts to billionaires, and refused to stop Trump’s tariffs, massive corruption, stupid war, ICE killings, and incompetent unqualified appointments, have only stupid culture war lies to peddle.

Fun fact: in 2020 Florida Republicans paid (illegally) a man with the same last name as the Democrat incumbent to run in an effort to confuse voters and they actually succeeded. The Democrat lost by 32 votes and the sham candidate received 6,000 votes. Election was not overturned.

Get ready for the unfolding of a Russian propaganda operation, carried out with the aid of the White House, in the battered town of Oleshky. From @ZarinaZabrisky, who has been reporting from Kherson, just across the river, since 2023 theatlantic.com/internationa…

Ukrainians repeatedly asked for a humanitarian corridor to allow residents to leave. Russians refused. Only now, just before the midterms, have they allowed Melania Trump to "negotiate" a ceasefire so that people without food for many weeks can leave.

I just hope at some point we are able to know which companies accept and sell this Russian fuel so we can launch an aggressive and permanent nationwide boycott of them.

🚨 TODAY: Settler-terrorists attacked Andrey, Jasper and me. This video shows the assault. Andrey was severely beaten and lost consciousness several times in front of police. Despite this, he was denied hospital treatment. He was put in an ambulance—but instead of being taken to hospital, he was taken to a police station. He is still there, arrested and being denied medical care. Jasper and I were also beaten. Jasper was then pepper-sprayed and arrested.
HAPPENING NOW🚨🚨: @the_andrey_x @infinite_jaz and I were attacked by settler-terrorists in Umm al-Khair!! They beat us, threatened to shoot us, stole Andrey's phone and my glasses and pepper-sprayed Jasper.

54+ hours into the Oleshky ceasefire, the First Lady amplifies Putin envoy Kirill Dmitriev and bills a Newsmax crew as "neutral observers." With no US officials on the ground, that crew is effectively the American presence. The US side is reportedly coordinated by Marc Beckman, her private adviser and producer of her documentary, with no diplomatic or humanitarian experience. Saving lives in Oleshky matters most. But is this becoming PR for both the White House and the Kremlin, packaged as a MAGA win before the midterms? h/t @OstapYarysh
DOCUMENTING OLESHKY Four American journalists from Newsmax will be on the ground in Oleshky, embedded with Russian and Ukrainian humanitarian leaders. Serving as neutral observers, they will independently record and permanently document this historic humanitarian mission.

Incredible. Russia is bringing in NEWSMAX—which has Epstein’s savior and Trump’s Labor Secretary Alex Acosta on the board—to reinforce Melania’s psyop that she somehow saved Oleshky. Melania announces this by quote-tweeting Putin’s bag man. The shamelessness is nauseating.

A horrific Russian strike on the railway station in Dnipro. The Russians launched a drone attack on a platform where an ordinary commuter train and a scheduled passenger train were standing. Unfortunately, 13 people have been confirmed killed as of now. My condolences to their families and loved ones. Ten more people were injured. All necessary emergency services are working at the scene. Just how many terrorist strikes has Russia carried out against our people since sanctions were lifted on certain Russian oligarchs and the Russian energy sector, rather than de-escalating? This is precisely why Ukraine has always said that just and decisive action by America and Europe is needed in response to Russian escalation – sanctions against Moscow and its war machine must not be eased for as long as this Russian war continues. It is time for new, stronger sanctions steps by the EU, the United States, and the G7. I thank everyone who is ready to help in this way.

"Why Is the Media Ignoring the New Rape Allegation Against Trump?" Legacy news outlets look the other way as Trump is hit with new Epstein-related accusations. Read this week's Zeteo's 'Ragebait' media column, which brings receipts: zeteo.com/p/why-is-the-media…

So much of MAGA—online and off—is this kind of thing. Liberating the worst version of themselves to hurl hatred at people, and thinking to themselves that’s what winning in politics means. The country is exhausted by all of it.
Hey @RichardAAttard, I love that picture. It was taken a few months after my wife ended her chemotherapy treatments during her battle with cancer. Hey hair was starting to come back, and I think she looks gorgeous here. And yes, I proudly stand with the LGBTQ+ community. Thanks

A brawl broke out in Armenia’s parliament earlier today between lawmakers from the ruling Civil Contract party and the opposition resulting in the suspension of the session. The incident was broadcast live and shows lawmakers wrestling and throwing punches. Local media report an ambulance arrived at the building and an opposition lawmaker from the Strong Armenia faction was seen bleeding from the nose. Security staff separated the sides, and the clashes continued in the corridors. No official injury report has been released. The confrontation began during a speech by Civil Contract MP Taron Chakhoyan, who accused opposition members and associates of former president Robert Kocharyan of corruption and clashed verbally with Narek Karapetyan, head of the Strong Armenia faction. Azernews reports a similar clash took place in early October.

Brazil’s Supreme Court has ordered an investigation into alleged election interference involving a donor network co-founded by JD Vance. We translated the full 38-page court order, and it goes WAY beyond that. Polymarket. Meta. AI. Rare-earth minerals. And that’s where things get REALLY interesting... meidasnews.com/news/brazil-o…

Abdul El-Sayed: “We are being actively bullied by the dumbest people in the room. Donald Trump is an idiot. He has one genius which is getting attention. Because his dad never gave him enough, because he was a nepo baby, he craved attention and used the bullying tactics to get it. But the man is an idiot. Just a fool”
