Thank you also to @charlottetobitt.bsky.social & @pressgazette.co.uk for this report (& your support). It honestly feels like some sort of miracle to have built a new masthead in a year from the Guardian/Observer shitshow with nothing more than our wits & fresh air archive.is/rogPR

Trump’s obscene corruption is therefore a symptom of what is broken in our politics and in our economic and social system. Revealing his abuses and holding him accountable is therefore essential to our hopes of restoring equity, decency, opportunity and the rule of law in our society.

The only meeting Hakeem Jeffries should be having with Jared Kushner is to tell him he’ll be subpoenaed by the House for a corruption investigation on day one of Democratic control of the House. This is just pathetic stuff from the House Dem leader. www.nytimes.com/2026/08/23/u...

This is a good reminder that some "voluntary" departures people sign while detained by ICE are the product of coercion. The worst incidents I've heard of over the years involve agents grabbing a person's hands and forcing them to sign a piece of paper they can't read; it's a "voluntary" removal.

@gluesenkampperez.house.gov Why on earth did you vote for the purported insider trading act that doesn't limit insider trading but does place limits on mail-in voting? Between this and the inexcusable votes to fund ICE, you've lost me as a regular supporter.

For most of our American history, Congress set up agencies and commissions to deal with complex and specialized questions. We made them expert, independent and often bipartisan. Every single one of the fifty states has done the same at some point. It worked. 🧵

good to see this. Musk is clearly getting visibly angry at the rising awareness of how many hundreds of thousands of people his DOGE wilding spree has already killed, millions more if this stays in place into the future. Everyone can participate in spreading the word about all the blood on his hands

These images get at the problem for me. Tacky? Sure, but so is that red carpet, which precedes Trump. Tacky I can abide. What's grotesque here is the gleeful sadism, the brutality, the misogyny, the monarchism, the cult of personality, the corruption, the cruel, loveless gaze.

Screenshot of a PatriotTakes post on X describing a 6-minute Republican opposition video outlining Ken Paxton's corruption, originally distributed by the NRSC, that has since been made unlisted on YouTube. The post includes a still from the video showing a black-and-white image of Paxton with a graphic reading "2011 - TEXAS STATE REPRESENTATIVE" and text describing Paxton soliciting investments in a technology company called Servergy while serving in that role.

the Colbert cancellation is a labor issue, to my mind. Colbert’s show employed hundreds of union employees working nightly. Byron Allen’s non-union show costs CBS nothing (literal zero), and costs Allen very little as well since comics provide their own material for a nominal fee and exposure

I’m calling on the General Assembly to vote to reconvene for special session to impeach or censure the Governor. Governor Polis commuted Tina Peters’ sentence after the legislative session, likely in an effort to avoid accountability for misconduct. The people of Colorado demand accountability.
