ANOTHER DAY, ANOTHER PAXTON SCANDAL Paxton will fly all the way to Dubai to party w/fugitives wanted on federal fraud charges, but won’t show up on a debate stage to face James Talarico in front of Texas voters. One of those fugitives donated $190K to Paxton, including $25K AFTER being indicted.

Scandals this week in the Texas senate race: Ken Paxton on video with his latest mistress partying in Dubai with a wanted fugitive who committed over $300 million in health care fraud and gave $190K to Paxton. James Talarico stayed home to recover from the flu.

Over the weekend, the MAGA regime illegally cut down/killed over 450 trees at historic East Potomac Golf Links in DC and have been ordered by a judge to immediately stop their destruction. The orange felon won’t stop until he destroys everything.

Q: “Senator Sullivan, why did you refuse to meet with Epstein survivors and then vote to confirm Blanche?” Dan Sullivan: “I’ve done more for domestic violence supporters than anybody.” Dan Sullivan voted to block release of the Epstein files and protect pedophiles.

Huh. Apparently Katie Miller deleted this tweet that I had the foresight to screencap. Turns out I can TOO make things go viral on Xitter, even.
My RT of a Katie Miller tweet which RTed the NYPost coverage of the Ilhan Omar raid. 

She said: Promise made, promise kept.
I said: Katie Miller is not going to do very well in a deposition.

WASHINGTON—Trump’s federal agents raid Rep. Ilhan Omar’s home over decades-old “immigration paperwork” her father filled out when she was a kid. No charges. Breaking DOJ norms. Over the cliff, folks.

I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation. I will not be silenced.

It’s genuinely sad to watch. The President is so weak and incapable of negotiating a real deal that he just posts fake ones on social media and hopes people believe him, until every party involved puts out a statement calling him a liar. We’ve never seen weakness like this in the Oval Office.

Russian bot traffic has dropped to nearly 0 after Ukraine struck a Yandex data center in Vladimir, Russia
• Source Network: AS13238 YANDEX – Yandex LLC (Russian Federation)
• Traffic Breakdown: Prior to the drop, bot traffic accounted for roughly 99.6% of requests compared to 0.4% human traffic.
• Event Cause: The sudden plunge to zero on October 11, 2026, corresponds to a reported military/drone attack on Yandex's data center facility in Vladimir, Russia—marking the third reported attack on Yandex data infrastructure since October 8.
