Trump tries to start a race war: "The once Great State of Minnesota is being taken over by Somali Immigrants ... The Somalians should not be allowed to get away with what they are doing. They view you as weak and stupid people. Fight back Minnesota, fight back!"

Marco Rubio has a meltdown when asked about Kimberly Guilfoyle: "I'm not playing this game ... you guys are not gonna be our only source of information in the world. I'm sorry to tell you that. No... I don't even know if what you're reporting is true." (It's true! The Journal has her text messages!)

An incisive, deeply thoughtful breakdown by @schaller67.bsky.social on how Trump’s political capital finally dried up and why this bankruptcy is the one he can’t walk away from. Nobody tracks the madness and media spin like @atrupar.com Seriously worth subscribing to Public Notice.

this is on the one hand a totally insane thing to say, but it's interesting to see it as kind of a legacy kludge from fusionists past, where the "communists want to remake the social world" was part of what kept the cons in coalition with the hawks and the libertarians

This is so dangerous! President Trump is deliberately inciting race hatred against an ethnic minority, calling on the people of Minnesota to "fight back" against "Somali immigrants." This must be a terrifying moment for the Somali community (who are overwhelmingly US citizens).

Donald Trump is an absolutely vile racist. Trump: “The Somalians should not be allowed to get away with what they are doing. They view you as weak and stupid people. Fight back Minnesota, fight back!”
Trump: The once Great State of Minnesota is being taken over by Somali Immigrants. There is Violence, Murder, and Mayhem all over the State. The people of Minnesota must fight back. You have been robbed, and abandoned by your State Government. Your Governor is an incompetent thief who doesn't want to get involved. He just wants to get out of town with as much as he can steal, and then, lead a quiet life. The Somalians should not be allowed to get away with what they are doing. They view you as weak and stupid people. Fight back Minnesota, fight back!
If you need, the Federal Government will come to your rescue.
Governor Tim Walz, and Mayor of Minneapolis, Jacob Frey, must immediately ask for Federal help — and leave the rest to us! President
DONALD J. TRUMP

A majority of voters in the Deep South disagree with their states’ extreme restrictions, highlighting the disconnect between the public and the legislators who represent them.

As completely deranged and fucked up and wrong as he is, I gotta say it is stressful to have the damn president of the United States constantly attacking my state of Minnesota, sending violence, calling for violence, putting all lives at risk, killing our neighbors. Like it really takes a toll.

A new Pew Research Center poll has Trump’s approval rating plunging to just 30% — his lowest showing in a high-quality poll this term. His previous low was 31% in a recent AP-NORC poll. A whopping 68% of Americans now disapprove of the way Trump is handling his job.

Just the president urging Americans to take matters into their own hands to “fight back” against a small community of immigrants in their midst. No big deal.

MTG's pettiness is on the side of the right here:
A Trump Truth Social post dated 8 October 2026, reading "The White House considers anyone that uses the term, 'Artificial Intelligence,' as opposed to the highly accepted new and more accurate term, 'Super Intelligence,' THE ENEMY! President DONALD J. TRUMP" is quote-tweeted by former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene on the same day, with the words: "Artificial Intelligence."

Trump's pushing the term "super intelligence" is stupid for many reasons (not least because "superintelligence" was already a term with a specific meaning in semi-technical and policy/philosophical discussions about AI). But now his bullying about it is reaching an Orwellian pitch.
A Trump Truth Social post dated 8 October 2026, reading: "The White House considers anyone that uses the term, 'Artificial Intelligence,' as opposed to the highly accepted new and more accurate term, 'Super Intelligence,' THE ENEMY! President DONALD J. TRUMP" (https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/117406176604364910). That post is quote-tweeted by @josephpolitano.bsky.social on the same day with the message: "Again he’s really losing it with the AI stuff now." And that, in turn, is quote-tweeted by @sky.skymarchini.net also on the same day, in two messages that read (combined) as follows: "Yeah, so, I work for an organization with federal government contracts and, the White House is not actually joking about this. It’s (probably) not at an 'I will I get fired if I put "artificial intelligence" in an email' level but the WH is making clear that the expectation is to use Trump’s politically correct terminology in public communication."

Related news: I reviewed emails received yesterday by two federal agencies—SEC and NIH—instructing them to update all internal and public materials to say "super intelligence" instead of "artificial intelligence" in order to comply with Trump's executive order.

Trump: "We will not be attacking Iran at any time prior to the Midterm Elections"
We are having productive discussions with the Islamic Republic of Iran. I want to make it clear to everybody that, while Iran is in very bad condition, both Economically and Militarily, and while the Blockade will remain in full force and effect, with Oil flowing in Record Numbers of Barrels through the Hormuz Strait (22 Million Barrels, last night alone, with not one barrel coming from, or going to, Iran!), we will not be attacking Iran at any time prior to the Midterm Elections to be held in the United States on November 3rd. IRAN WILL NOT HAVE A NUCLEAR WEAPON! President DONALD J. TRUMP
