Hey, I’m in Le Monde!

This is purposeful voter suppression by Ohio Statehouse Republicans
They passed a law allowing only ONE early vote location per county, no matter the county size or population. They knew this would create lines in places like Cbus, Cincinnati, & Cleveland, but not rural areas

In his defense, bombing Ho Chi Minh City would indeed end the Vietnam War within a week
Trump:
I could have won the Vietnam War in a week.
They kept bombing forests for years instead of going after Ho Chi Minh City.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Ho Chi Minh City was called Saigon during the Vietnam War and was the capital of US-allied South Vietnam; North Vietnam's capital was Hanoi.

Before the midterms, MAGA, ask yourselves one simple question: How does any of this shit help you? Does renaming the Strait of Hormuz lower your grocery bill, pay your rent, or make healthcare more affordable? What exactly are you getting out of this?

Trump is dismantling the science system that made America a superpower. NIH has delayed or canceled over 2,000 grants on Alzheimer’s, cancer and more, NSF is withholding more than $1 billion, Energy lost over 1,000 scientists, and Pentagon labs lost 14% of their staff, which the Pentagon itself says could have grave consequences for defense. China is catching up while foreign Ph.D. applications drop 21%. We built this over 80 years, and it’s being gutted in under two. nytimes.com/2026/10/31/clima… #MedSky #LawSky #press #Science #NIH #NSF #Research #DOGE #China

Making crude cracks about Talarico’s sexuality, then opting to dress up as a gay wizard. That’s about right.
Would be amazing if we made a concerted effort to be a less stupid society.

An ABC News analysis just found that Trump's sons have received $6 billion in federal contracts since 2024. Remember how angry MAGA was about Hunter Biden? Now Trump is paying his own sons billions of our tax money.
This is the real swamp we need to drain!

Kid Rock goes on a wildly racist rant to @billmaher about Abdul El-Sayed: “You know who else assimilated? Those pieces of shit that flew those planes into our World Trade Centers. This is Islamic extremism… a wolf in wolf’s clothing.”
@hbomax nice, guys. Way to go.

Someone stole 420 million of our tax dollars in this money laundering scheme. We spent 70 billion overall and all we got was our healthcare cut.

For those interested in reality, the last Biden budget was $864 billion. The $600 billion-plus proposed increase comes to more than $4,500 per household ever year. It is 1,200 times the spending on public broadcasting that got the Rs so excited.
Trump wants $1.5 trillion for national defense in FY2027. Politico reports Pentagon and congressional planners are preparing for roughly $1.1 trillion instead, citing sources who doubt the full request can pass. No $400 billion cut has been enacted; Congress has not approved the full request.
The extra $350 billion depends on reconciliation legislation Congress has not passed. Golden Dome, new ships, and replenishing munitions used in Iran all compete for funding. The White House has a headline number; Congress still needs to know which priorities survive when the numbers get real.

It's funny that three of the loudest Republicans about Somali fraud have taken hundreds of thousands of dollars this year from... nursing home industry owners, whose profiteering and neglect is legendary.

Cool, Trump's Minnesota fraud was much larger than the Somali one he always screams about.
"New records obtained by KARE 11 show the company that owned a vacant private prison in Appleton, Minnesota offered to sell it to the state in 2025 for $75 million.
One year later, the Trump administration agreed to use taxpayer funds to buy the same abandoned prison from CoreCivic, Inc., for $495.6 million.
The price difference, $420 million, is more than taxpayers are estimated to have lost in Minnesota’s much-publicized Feeding Our Future fraud scandal." kare11.com/article/news/inve…

UPDATE: Earlier this year, President Trump filed purchases of ADT stock.
It was just announced that ADT will be acquired by Thrive Holdings, founded by Josh Kushner.
$ADT is up 33% today.
