Since Representative Ilhan Omar's citizenship is being investigated reaching back decades then Democrats need to investigate Melania and Elon when they get back into the Whitehouse. Fair is fair.

Foolish me, I truly believed in Nov 2022 when I posted an exhaustively researched thread on Elon's lawbreaking and academic lies that got 21 million views, that news media would write about them and we'd avoid the nightmare we're in now where the world's richest man is trying to kill democracy.

They really believed the "vibe shift" nonsense and interpreted Trump's 2024 win as evidence that the American people are as racist and bloodthirsty as they are. When in reality the election was a referendum on the economy, which they have made worse.

Looking forward to the same scrutiny being impartially applied to Elon Musk and Melania Trump, whose immigration documents are much much worse than anything alleged about Omar's father

The government *still* isn’t tracking how often immigration agents detain U.S. citizens. We are. 500+ Americans have been handcuffed, held at gunpoint or held against their will in Trump’s second term. Our tally is almost certainly an undercount. THREAD (content warning: violence) ⬇️

Spectacular detail in this story www.nytimes.com/2026/10/05/w...
The governor of the neighboring Buryatia region, Aleksei Tsydenov, was the first to officially raise the prospect of plague. He said on Friday that "the woman who died of plague in the Irkutsk region" had not visited Buryatia. His post on a state-linked messaging app was later updated to read "possibly died of plague."
The following day, the authorities in Baikalsk, a town about 50 miles from the city of Irkutsk, cited "unofficial
information" about "a case of plague" in a statement advising against travel to Shelekhov. That statement, on Telegram, was later deleted

Dammit. I am so mad I posted that. The Post pushed that, but doesn't say until the sixth paragraph that The Atlantic actually broke the news (and they don't link to the story when they finally acknowledged it). Here's a gift link to Nick Miroff's report: www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

Ken Paxton is a blatant crook who was turned into the FBI by his own staff and impeached by his own Party. The James Talarico / Ken Paxton Texas Senate race is really a referendum on good vs. evil. More than that, it's a referendum on the decency of the people of Texas.

Republicans didn't win the last decade on votes alone. They won it in state legislatures, drawing maps that made their minority look like a majority. In 2026, Democrats are running the same play. The next decade depends on whether they match that commitment.

ICE owes millions in unpaid bills to hospitals and, in some cases, detainees themselves have been directly billed for care, records show.
