The director of our FBI is putting people on America's Ten Most Wanted list right before his agents arrest them, and then bragging about the results. Consider this for a minute.

All Republicans have to offer voters in the midterms is failure, lies, corruption, cover ups, fear mongering, name calling, enrichment of oligarchs, christian nationalism, racism, data centers everywhere, flock cameras, higher prices, new wars and fake bribes. Hell of a platform.

It's circa 2010 America and someone tells you that in 15 years, our government will be implementing a fascist authoritarian takeover replete with armed goons in our streets, the Crusades with our military, and the random renaming of various seas & lakes, all at the hands of... Donald fucking Trump.

I wonder why Trump and Republicans are promoting this industry so heavily and are allowing them to operate free from any guardrails or regulation?

Exactly.
State Rep. Angie Nixon: Folks. If we’re going to be a big tent, then damnit we need to be a big tent. We need all hands on deck right now. Trump isn’t going to willingly leave in 2028. We need to send more folks to DC with the political will and courage to stand up to his bullying.

If you believe that gas and diesel prices are high in late September 2026 because of Biden and Zelenskyy, then you might be a Trump supporter. And a moron. Which is pretty much the same thing.

Trump's ban on MSNOW, CNN, and Politico is not only part of the autocratic playbook, but the timing is no coincidence. Trump is well in the autocratic backfire process, thus, entire media outlets he sees as threats must be banished. This is a moment of reckoning for America.

This is the Republican Party. Corrupt as hell, constantly starting wars, blowing up the deficit, giving tax cuts for billionaires, bailing out corporations, cutting health care, making everything more expensive, while serving up culture war drivel to distract you from all that.

Every day, Trump and Republicans are actively making life less affordable for Americans with tariffs, wars, and incompetence. But 16 of the US’s wealthiest billionaires are going to flood the zone with culture war drivel ads and lies to dupe people into voting against themselves.

1. The AI industry had bet big on Trump and the GOP, donating $42 million to MAGA Inc. this cycle. But with the political winds shifting, the industry is hedging their bets. They just hired Jay Carney, former Obama White House Press Secretary, to rebuild bridges with Democrats.
