Here for political sanity. Since we currently have no way to rein in the radical right media silos of propaganda & lies, this craziness is going to last way past Trump. So strap in. No DMs No Crypto

Benny Johnson denies having sex with 2 pigs & a goat. "What would you say if I told you I had an audiotape of your friends that said you were in Biloxi the day before the police found the pigs & goat stumbling down Main Street?" "I don't think you know we have this stuff..." Johnson is stunned.

"The Supreme Court’s decision Friday to revive the Trump administration’s expanded SAVE database for the midterms also suggests the justices may be eager to weaken one of federal law’s most important safeguards against last-minute voter purges." www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
democracydocket.com
In SAVE ruling, Supreme Court signals path to weaken key protection against last-minute purges
A crucial voter protection could hinge on whether the Supreme Court wants to narrow the definition of “systematic” as applied to purges. And there’s reason to fear that it does.

History shows financial calamities occur when rates rise rapidly like this. The 10-year yield saw its most rapid one-day increase since early 2025 on Wednesday. In 16 instances of rapid increases in the 10-year yield since 1970, a financial crisis occurred. www.cnbc.com/2026/09/24/h...

History shows financial calamities occur when rates rise rapidly like this: 'Something always breaks'
The 10-year Treasury note yield is spiking to levels not seen in years, and that may be a bad omen for financial markets.

At this late stage, I would think since 🤡 rejected Iran's proposal, he probably has something else in mind to blunt the bleeding from the midterms And earlier I read about rumors that advisors are suggesting he declare martial law before the elections 🤔 That has Stephen Miller's stink all over it.

Under the Trump administration, the E.P.A. has stopped estimating the public health benefits of reducing pollution in the cost-benefit analyses necessary for clean-air regulations. Instead, the agency has estimated only the costs to businesses of complying with the rules.

Potentially. It’s not hyperbole to say that AI will soon have a strategic impact on national security that rivals nuclear weapons, satellites, precision-guided munitions, etc. It’s already changed our decision making processes and reshaped cyber warfare, and it’s just getting started.

It really depends on what the Houthis do from here. So far, they’re largely only targeting Saudi shipments, which is bad enough. My concern is that the next time the US and Iran start bombing, Iran will activate them to close the strait. If that happens, oil will skyrocket. $200 is possible.

Act like it.

-vote to nationalize Starlink and

That's the first day.
On the second, get more aggressive.
