If we want to talk affordability, you know what would really help? Re-jiggering how we pay for college. There's a lot to learn from my native Australia, which has an incredibly fair and efficient system of income-based repayment.

Okay, there needs to be a Grammy category for this. And this needs to be the winner.
What do you get when you mix the best selling single of the king of pop with the lately departed queen of MAGA?

This is what we get: a parody of Billie Jean about #mtg #maga #marjorietaylorgreene 🎶🕺

Three things about the Witkoff tapes:

1) It appears Western intelligence services have decided to let Witkoff (and Trump) know they have recordings of their traitorous conversations w/Russia.

2) This Ukraine "deal" was all Witkoff's idea.

3) Congressional leaders should demand he be fired.

Bragging that his chief of staff could "destroy" another country? This is sick.
Trump on Susie Wiles: "She can take out a country -- destroy -- take out a country with one phone call. That's power. I don't know if I could do that, but she could."

No one should have to face such threats.

It would’ve been nice if Greene had realized this before she amplified and endorsed calls for executing Nancy Pelosi and Barack Obama.

Absolutely correct
American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

I like how Krasner winning an almost unprecedented third term as Philly DA by stomping the walrus mustached city court judge who quit the bench to try to take him out first in the primary and again as a Republican in the general isn’t even folded into the national Dem sweep coverage.

Bushart probably owes his release in part to excellent, persistent coverage of the case by several local Tennessee news outlets, plus this great deep dive by @lilianasegura.bsky.social @theintercept.com, which was in turn picked up by @brianstelter.bsky.social: theintercept.com/2025/10/23/c...

Trump Org’s income in the first half of 2024 was $51 million.

In the first half of 2025 it rose to $864 million.

A massive percentage came from foreigners.

It should be the biggest scandal in the history of American politics.

But few even care. www.reuters.com/investigatio...
Inside the Trump family’s global crypto cash machine
The U.S. president’s family raked in more than $800 million from sales of crypto assets in the first half of 2025 alone, a Reuters examination found, on top of potentially billions more in unrealized “on paper” gains. Much of that cash came from foreign sources as Donald Trump's sons touted their business on an international investor roadshow.

While Republicans continue their ruthless and unprecedented mid-decade radical gerrymander in multiple states to hang on to power, Democrats outside CA continue to wring their hands and dither, seeking excuses for inaction like Merrick Garland reading FBI reports about J6.

The old rulebook is gone. It's not coming back and we all need to accept that. The DOJ is weaponized. the GOP is rigging elections. Trump is literally bulldozing the White House.

Democrats need to operate under this new reality, fight hard, and play by the same rules.

In the last 24 hoursm the ADL's Jonathan Greenblatt has attacked by name, Zohran Mamdani & Graham Platner, both left-wing Dem candidates who criticize Israel.

He has said not a word about Paul Ingrassia, Trump's nominee for a top government job, who was caught saying he has a 'Nazi streak.'
