They don't even try to hide their bias; look at the damage they have caused. For example, what rational person could conclude that the Constitution grants the President immunity?

Gov. Shapiro: We’re going to go as far as we can to show that we believe in science, to protect access to vaccines. If RFK tries to take something away from our public health system here in Pennsylvania, as he has… I sued and won. We’re going to stand up for science and stand up against RFK Jr.

notable -- Fox News hasn't mentioned Trump's transphobic attack on Annie Andrews a single time. Not once. And they cover a lot of his Truth Social posts. Almost like they're trying to protect their audience from learning the true depth of his depravity.

This tells you everything about how Trump sees this country. The destruction, the fear and the innocent people who would pay the actual price are just collateral damage to him.

High school football players threaten to sexually assault female student-message her in group chat. "If you think Cornell was bad just wait for us," text said. What's worse? Some parents are excusing the football players' behavior saying, "Boys will be boys." Boise, Idaho.

Republicans now having to spend many millions in multiple states where they should not have to spend anything because Trump endorsed the worst possible general election candidate in those primaries so now they are being bailed out by billionaires buying elections with dark money.

People in Ithaca sent a message to those who would normalize sexual assault on campus, paying a visit to Cornell’s main administrative building, Day Hall, which houses the office of the university president. If graffiti didn't change anything, it would be legal. crimethinc.com/KillPower
Day Hall at Cornell University vandalized early Monday morning, October 5, 2026, with graffiti reading "Smash the patriarchy" and "At Cornell, rapists are protected, protestors are expelled."

I agree with this comment. Just as the 50 Snapchat guys that did nothing are part of the Cornell 57. Republicans are the same as the Cornell 57 for not calling out accountability to the Pedo-in-Chief. This is disgusting and irresponsible 🤮🤬🖕🏼

True, after losing all daddy’s $413M and going $3B in debt before going chapter 11 bankrupt; when no banks would loan to the shyster anymore. Trump would be a homeless popper if not for billion$ from Russian “banks”, managed by the State. He’s been. Kompromat paid employee of the Kremlin ever since.

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) ⬇️

Police violently drag Hispanic grandmother across rough ground-injuring both arms. Witnesses yell she has a serious heart condition & was just released from hospital. Cops kneel on her chest anyway. "They dragged her like a doll," brother said. Incident occurred in Batesville, Texas
