How could Johnson have discussions with the Justices before whom his lawyers would appear to challenge Trump's conviction? This creates an appearance of impropriety and should serve as the basis for recusal of the Justices if Johnson petitions the SCOTUS for relief. #SCOTUS

Mike Rogers: "This DSA affiliated candidate is also taking a lot of money from organizations that support the Muslim Brotherhood, Hamas, and Hezbollah."
FACT CHECK: Rogers has taken roughly $9 million in AIPAC-backed outside support. No financial trail from Hamas or Hezbollah to Abdul El-Sayed.

When "Attorney General" Todd Blanche, who happens to be Trump’s personal lawyer not the US AG, launches a "Justice Department" lawsuit to block an election certification *only if* the Republican candidate loses, we all know what game is being played. This isn't some noble fight for election integrity; it's the exact same 'stop the steal' playbook rolled out when inconvenient outcomes arise. The idea that blocking results is suddenly justified when *their* team isn't winning exposes the entire charade. It's not about the rules; it's about retaining power, by any means necessary, just like we saw in 2020, now with a fresh coat of Alaskan paint. wsj.com/politics/elections/a…

Obama pointing out the obvious on the Iran deal isn't "told-you-so" as much as it's just stating facts for anyone paying attention. Republicans screamed for years that the Iran nuclear deal was a disaster, a gift to terrorists, and promised their 'tough' approach would magically fix everything. Then Trump, under their cheerleading, pulls out of an agreement that, according to the IAEA, was actually stopping Iran from getting nukes. What was the big win there? They scrapped a deal where Iran gave up 97% of its enriched uranium and dismantled centrifuges, only to end up with an Iran that reduces compliance and moves closer to nuclear capability. It's not rocket science. The 'tough on Iran' crowd got exactly what their spiteful, reality-denying approach delivered: a less stable region and an Iran with fewer checks. They broke something that worked, just to own Obama, leaving us all objectively worse off. politifact.com/article/2026/…

Half of Americans are worried Republicans will try to illegally overturn midterm results, and for good reason. For years, the GOP has weaponized baseless fraud claims whenever they lose, even as courts repeatedly debunk the nonsense. Then, in the same breath as a Trump administration AG vaguely promises not to "improperly interfere," the administration files a lawsuit to block certification of the Alaska Senate race if their guy loses. They cite "voter confusion" over two candidates with the same name, despite the incumbent being clearly labeled. It’s the classic play: scream about election integrity while actively trying to manipulate election outcomes, proving exactly why folks are worried. It's not about fairness; it's about power, plain and simple, and their actions speak louder than any poll or platitude. thehill.com/blogs/ballot-box…

So now the MAGA crowd is getting tangled up with the Pope, claiming he's using a Cold War playbook against them. Funny, because the article points out the last Pope who actually fought communism, John Paul II, wasn't just giving inspiring messages; he was literally kissing the tarmac in communist Poland and then opening doors for immigrants. Meanwhile, Trump's version of a red scare isn't about crushing oppressive regimes; it's about casting suspicion on people seeking refuge. It's a neat trick: scream communism to justify slamming borders shut, while a new Pope, from the Americas no less, calls that out as a danger to human dignity and reminds folks that welcoming the vulnerable isn't optional. He's choosing refugees over Trump's photo ops, which tells you everything about who's actually standing on principle versus who's just playing a tired political game. alternet.org/trump-pope-leo-…

Trump screams "rigged election" louder than anyone, usually right after he loses, but the actual receipts show him orchestrating the rigging. Here we have a former President pushing a DOJ lawsuit to purge California voter rolls based on zero evidence, while national security experts who usually focus on countering authoritarian regimes abroad are now discreetly advising states on how to deal with his election interference. It's the classic move: accuse your opponents of exactly what you're doing, then try to pull it off yourself. The absurdity isn't that Democrats are worried; it's that the loudest voice against "election fraud" is the one actively trying to manipulate the vote count and challenge legitimate ballots. It's not hypothetical outrage; it's documented action, proving the guy who cries wolf is actually the wolf himself, trying to change the rules when he can't win fair and square. thenation.com/article/politi…

Did you pray for Ken Paxton to be less corrupt? Did you pray for him to be less lenient on child molesters? Did you pray for him to be faithful to his wife? Did you pray for Texas to be less racist?
🙏🇺🇸 MY PRAYER FOR KEN PAXTON AND THE STATE OF TEXAS! ✝️🔥
I am praying for Ken Paxton, for Texas, and for the Church of Texas to ARISE in this critical hour!
Lord, awaken Your Church! Raise up bold, uncompromising believers who will stand for biblical truth, righteousness, and religious liberty. Give Christians discernment, courage, and the conviction to engage in the public square rather than remain silent.
I pray that deception would be exposed, that truth would prevail, and that Texas would remain a state where faith, freedom, and biblical convictions can be expressed without fear.
CHURCH OF TEXAS, IT IS TIME TO WAKE UP! 🔥
We must pray, stand for our convictions, and make our voices heard. Let every candidate be examined by their words, policies, and record, and let truth prevail at the ballot box.
🙏 Lord, give Texas wisdom. Strengthen Your people. Let righteousness and truth guide this election!
TEXAS, THE CHURCH MUST ARISE! 🇺🇸✝️

This is the corruption AK is fed up with, and it's why I'm in this race. Sullivan has enriched himself at our expense for 12 years. Now he’s using his DC allies to try to keep himself in power and put his own interests ahead of Alaskans.
We will make sure every Alaskan is heard.

So, Trump officials only care about "election integrity" when their guy, Dan Sullivan, is on the losing side in Alaska. Suddenly, "confusion over similar names" becomes a valid reason to halt vote counting or block results—a problem they'd conveniently ignore if Sullivan won by a landslide. This isn't about ensuring fair elections; it's a blatant instruction manual for how authoritarians plan to overturn any vote they don't like. They don't mind "confused" voters when those voters elect Republicans, but the moment a Democrat looks like they might win, every ballot becomes suspicious. It exposes the entire MAGA playbook: challenge the outcome only if you lose, regardless of evidence, and invent a reason after the fact. It's a preview of how they'd treat every election they don't win going forward, aiming to sow doubt and dismantle trust in the democratic process just to cling to power. nytimes.com/2026/10/23/us/po…

So Ilhan Omar gets her house raided by 25 federal agents before dawn, they take old phones and a kids' Somali phrase book, and suddenly the 'weaponized DOJ' crowd is nowhere to be found. Funny how the MAGA folks scream "banana republic" and "political persecution" when someone like Donald Trump faces legal scrutiny for actually hoarding classified documents or trying to overturn an election. But when it's a prominent progressive Democrat targeted with an early morning show of force for alleged immigration issues, suddenly it's just "following the rule of law." The silence from the usual suspects is deafening, proving their outrage over federal investigations is less about justice or due process and more about who's in the crosshairs. They only find government overreach offensive when it's not their political enemies getting the treatment. ms.now/news/ilhan-omar-raid-…

The MAGA faithful and their GOP allies really showed us who they prioritize with that Trump tax law. They proudly delivered massive tax breaks to billionaires and corporations, then conveniently paid for it by gutting SNAP, which meant over 1.5 million Latino families lost critical food assistance. So while everyday folks are wrestling with high grocery prices, the supposed party of the working class decided feeding hungry kids was less important than another yacht for their rich donors. It's a neat trick: preach about personal responsibility and American strength, then actively make it harder for communities to put food on the table to pad the pockets of the already wealthy. That's not just hypocrisy; it's a calculated transfer of suffering. commondreams.org/newswire/ne…
