Thug pulls gun on woman he claims has been following and recording him. Cop intervenes and tells thug he won't get any assistance if no crime has been committed.

Oh, and the thug did ID himself -- to the cop.

Neither one is a Democrat.

Joyce Carol Oates sums up the sad, empty husk that is Elon Musk:
Joyce Carol Oates @JoyceCarolOates So curious that such a wealthy man never posts anything that indicates that he enjoys or is even aware of what virtually everyone appreciates— scenes from nature, pet dog or cat, praise for a movie, music, a book (but doubt that he reads); pride in a friend’s or relative’s accomplishment; condolences for someone who has died; pleasure in sports, acclaim for a favorite team; references to history. In fact he seems totally uneducated , uncultured. The poorest persons on Twitter may have access to more beauty & meaning in life than the “most wealthy person in the world.”

OTOH, at least Kentuckians are champing at the bit to vote. Wildly misguided, but eager:
Now This Impact: "People of the Bluegrass State seemed to be confused: Kentucky did not have an election on November 4, 2025, and yet people showed up to vote, anyway. Kentucky ranks 34th in the nation for education." Plus Xitter post from KY Secy of State letting Kentuckians they couldn't vote for the mayor of NYC or the governor of Virginia.

Somebody send this "IQ test" to Trump -- he'll think he's won the IQ lotto:
An ad for an idiotic "IQ test" that actually tests whether you can see which color among two rows of dots is different from the others.

Trump will help 'Dilbert' creator, but he won't help you On Nov. 2, “Dilbert” creator and rabid Trump supporter Scott Adams, who has prostate cancer, posted on X that he planned to ask the president to help him get an appointment for “a newly FDA-approved drug called Pluvicto.” The president quickly responded, “On it,” and Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. wrote to Adams on X: “Scott. How do I reach you? The President wants to help.”

Robert Reich: It's not about what this country can or can't afford. It's about priorities. Remember: The richest 1% evade over $160 billion in taxes every year. That amount would fund a year of SNAP for 42 million people - with money to spare. Remember this the next time you hear someone ask, "But how will we pay for it?"

Flaunting food in front of the poors.

Not so coincidentally, doesn't it look like a bunch of little peon pumpkins lining up to pay homage at the castle of the big King Pumpkin?

So Brian Kemp would rather Georgians starve?

Color me unsurprised.

Gov. Brian Kemp is rejecting calls for Georgia to use its record surplus to keep food assistance flowing to more than 1.3 million residents if congressional lawmakers fail to strike a deal to reopen the government, arguing the state should not have to “bail out” Washington. The Republican told The Atlanta Journal-Constitution on Wednesday that he’s concerned that the state might not be reimbursed if it dips into Georgia’s $14.6 billion reserve fund to finance the Supplemental Food Assistance Program, which is expected to run dry within days.

"Here in Canada, many of us believe we are witnessing the fall of the U.S. empire. "Would a civilized country limit health care or food assistance for the poor; leave crops rotting in the fields; destroy the educational system; target women and attempt to eliminate their reproductive rights while refusing to help resulting babies; abuse desperate immigrants; pretend to believe in Christianity while perverting and debasing its tenets; and refuse to protect the Earth from destruction? "The world is watching." - Paul F. Haacker, Canadian public radio journalist

The image is a social media post that debunks common myths about the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), formerly known as food stamps. It uses a two-column table to contrast popular misconceptions with factual data about the program's recipients, economic impact, and fraud rates. Essential information from the post includes: Most SNAP recipients who are able to work are employed. Every dollar spent on SNAP benefits generates an estimated $1.73 in economic activity. The program has a low fraud rate of less than 3%. Undocumented immigrants are not eligible for SNAP benefits.
