On the Trump derangement scale, this is an 11.
YIKES 😳 Trump snaps at a reporter asking him about why he's dismissing sexual abuse allegations 👇
WOMAN REPORTER: Do the sexual abuse allegations mean nothing to you, sir?
TRUMP: Wait. Wait! Wait wait wait. Slow down. Who are you with?
REPORTER: NBC, sir. But they are very serious sexual abuse allegations
TRUMP: Quiet! Isn't she a fresh person? You're a horrible little reporter, aren't you?

This video product continues the journey of examining Jonathan Hickman's run on the Fantastic Four. This time, a bunch of Reeds get a beat-down in a pocket universe. You can't trust an insane Celestial, folks. They have issues.

This is how the candidates are listed on Alaska's ballots. It's clearly marked, which one is the GOP candidate and which one is just a guy
NEW: DOJ is suing to prevent Alaska from certifying its election results until the state investigates whether the other "Dan Sullivan" on the ballot created "voter confusion" to the detriment of incumbent GOP Sen. Dan Sullivan.

I came into the Foreign Service under Ronald Reagan, served under every president, even a few months under Donald Trump. NO ONE, absolutely NO ONE, ever asked me who I voted for or doubted my "fidelity" to my country. They don't want professionals, they want political hacks.
SCOOP: The State Dept has started asking career diplomats up for promotion if they voted for Trump in 16, 20, 24.
Federal law prohibits politically based hiring for career staff.
State tells @washingtonsun it's screening for "fidelity" and execution of the president's vision👇

Donald Trump just told Veterans poisoned by toxic water at Camp Lejeune that they’ll only get the money they’re owed if Republicans win the midterms.
These are Marines and their families who drank contaminated water for decades, got cancer, and have been begging the government for relief. But when Trump visits them for a rally, his only message is: vote my way or you get nothing. That's desperate and disgusting behavior from our Commander In Chief.

Armed and in uniform, federal agents from the Department of Homeland Security have been knocking on doors in several states to ask residents about their immigration status — and to inquire if they have registered to vote or cast votes in past elections, a CBS News Investigation has found. cbsnews.com/news/federal-age…

Freedom House ranks Russia-occupied Ukraine the least free place on earth—several points below North Korea.
That matters for the Washington debate over “territory” & a possible deal with Russia.
Glad to join @AtlanticCouncil to discuss what is at stake:

Today is the official release date for my new book, First Among Equals: Visions of Equality before Egalitarianism (Belknap, 2026).
It explores how and why “equality” became, rather suddenly, a basis on which ordinary men and women could make political demands in early modern England.
