The Ramaswamy ad has pushed the largest newspaper in Ohio, the Cleveland Plain Dealer, to reverse its position on endorsements.
"A candidate who uses childhood sexual abuse as a weapon against the person who endured it has crossed a line that Ohioans should defend, whatever their party. We are better than this. We have a responsibility to show it. Today we endorse Democrat Amy Acton for governor." cleveland.com/open/2026/10/w…

NEW: The DOJ charged James Comey for a third time, accusing the former FBI director of unlawfully transmitting national defense information to the press in 2016.
The move marks an escalation in Trump's ongoing retaliation campaign to prosecute his political foes. demdock.com/4spKKOT

You see how ridiculous this shit is? Just unserious Republican Black men not wanting to speak to the economic issues of the Black community instead they’d rather parrot the childishness of their “DADDY TRUMP!”
Get the fuck out of the way!!!
GO ANNIE ANDREWS!!!!

By The Way Let Me Make This Clear Perry Street Is Not On FAMU Campus So This Incident Didn't Have Anything To Do With The School
The sun is drunk on vc/pe tub gin.
A billionaire hedge funder who bought his way in should lead the terps.!?!?
@BaltSunSports stfu with this nonsense
Reader commentary: With Biff Poggi's history as a hedge fund manager and success in building St. Frances' football program, he could be the right man to help Maryland football in today's money-driven college sports environment. bit.ly/4BqGpz1

It's funny, I often hear a lot of these corporate guys, when you ask them about a well-run government, they all speak about Singapore, but when it comes to their own government in the U.S. they think it's impossible for it to be well-run and do everything to make a mess of it...
The incentives in government are completely misaligned.
Singapore pays multimillion dollar salaries to work in government.
The result is one of the best-run, highest per capita income countries on earth.
We don’t do that, but we do allow insider trading and $4 million book deals for people who sell one copy.
Warren Buffett said it best: pay every member of Congress $20 million but you 535 people have to balance the budget.
See how quickly sh*t gets done.
We’ve turned government into a career and that’s a problem.

Ramona Shelburne on what could happen if the WNBA title is won on Thursday:
"That celebration may not actually be on that court. I've heard there are discussions about whether there's enough time to turn the arena over in time for the fans to celebrate on the court. It could be moved to a practice court"
Unreal man smh

Who's taught Pat McAfee that you can be bombastic as hell, soak yourself in riches and adulation from millions all the time, and still whine every day about your victimhood?

Billionaire Timothy Mellon was RFKJr. & Trump’s top donor for the 2024 election.
I pray this is incorrect

Serbia just voted out the party that held power for 14 years under authoritarian rule. People organized, showed up, and won.
America, this could be us next week!

A small number of people voting illegally is not changing the outcome of an election, Marc Elias says.
“What it can do is serve as an excuse to disenfranchise hundreds of thousands of voters, and that can affect the outcomes of the elections.”
Don’t let this happen quietly. Follow us to join our fight.

We must not become accustomed to mass death in Sudan.
The UN Human Rights Office has documented at least 306 people killed by drone strikes during the first three weeks of October. Hundreds more were injured.
Every life lost mattered. Every grieving family deserves more than a world that briefly takes notice and moves on.
I’m praying for those mourning loved ones and everyone living in fear of the next attack. Nonviolence calls us to protect life, confront injustice and act to end the killing.
Contact your elected officials. Demand protection for civilians, safe access for humanitarian aid, and credible investigations and accountability for attacks on civilians. Insist on sustained diplomacy to end this war and support a lasting peace shaped by the Sudanese people.
The people of Sudan are part of our human family. We cannot let the duration of this war diminish our responsibility to act.

In August, President Trump announced he had signed the “biggest oil deal in world history.”
ProPublica reviewed the deal and found it gives a small group of people largely handpicked by the Trump administration long-term control of the enterprise.
