The fix is in. Ghislaine Maxwell, transferred to a club med prison after Trump's lawyer met with her (and she likely spilled what she knows about Trump), is now being waited on "hand and foot" by guards and is getting her commutation application ready with help from the warden.

If ANY other president had been caught DMing directives for the Attorney General to indict his political enemies it would have been game over. Impeached. Removed. But not Trump. With Donald Trump, it’s just another fucking day ending in Y.

You. Are. Allowed. To. Insult. The. Police. It’s a core First Amendment principle. This is utterly lawless behavior, for which there will be no (short-term) consequences. That he does it so casually, as they are walking away, in front of cameras. Rightly confident in his impunity.
 “[t]he freedom of individuals verbally to oppose or challenge police action without thereby risking arrest is one of the principal characteristics by which we distinguish a free nation from a police state.”

Did he share a “wonderful secret” with Donald Trump as well?


Photo of two X posts. The first post by Ron Filipkowski (@RonFilipkowski
) reads: "Trump’s former 'spiritual advisor.'" The second post by NBC News (@NBCNews
) states: "BREAKING: Former Texas megachurch pastor Robert Morris pleads guilty to sexually abusing a 12-year-old girl in the 1980s and will serve 6 months in prison." The post includes a photo of Robert Morris and a link to nbcnews.com. Both posts feature profile pictures and verification badges.

This is the real reason Jimmy Kimmel is being taken off the air. Brian Stelter: "Nexstar already owns lots of TV stations. It wants to merge with Tegna, which owns lots of other stations. In order to do that, it needs Brandon Carr, the FCC Chair's, permission."

Here's what Schumer and Jeffries included in their alt-CR to try to rein in Trump's rescissions. These efforts aren't getting enough attention, which helps the right wingers win the shut down. www.politico.com/news/2025/09...
Under their measure, Democrats are seeking to nix the fast-track process Congress can use to rescind funding on a simple-majority vote in the Senate, as Republicans did this summer in backing Trump’s request to claw back $9 billion for public broadcasting and foreign aid.

The bill also contains several mandates for how the Trump administration can spend money, in an attempt to stifle the administration’s moves to freeze, shift and cancel funding Congress approves.

The president would be barred from carrying out his budget request while the government is running on a temporary funding patch. That includes increasing, reducing or eliminating funding unless Congress enacts those changes into law.

The bill also would hamper Trump’s attempt this month to unilaterally cancel almost $5 billion. The president is planning to withhold the funding through its Sept. 30 expiration, but the bill would extend that date to thwart the cancellation of funding.

(1/3) I believe, more than ever, Trump needs to be chided, insulted, and laughed at. His ability to let things go, is nil. He's making mistakes. He's narcissistically battered over poor polling, increasingly paranoid, and his hyperbolic posts (like the many wars he's ended) are laughably false.

If the Senate's budget is enacted, millions will lose health insurance, millions will fall into poverty, and the national debt will increase by $3.3T. All of this to provide a major tax cut mainly to the rich and big corporations. There is no justification for this.
