what. a. scoop.
while not illegal and third party candidate recruitment to siphon votes practiced by both party's and as old as the republic itself, not sure I've ever seen such a complete opening of the kimono like this.
hell hath no fury like a...campaign manager scorned.

In the summer of 2025, a staffer for Mary Peltola received unusual instructions from top campaign aides: Find as many people named Dan Sullivan in Alaska as you can.

Leaving the industry titans’ exploitative platforms for dead, then, might be the last lever of power available to the masses.

Unlike many Democrats who write off conservative districts, Angie Nixon is traveling and campaigning in every Florida county, including those that voted for Trump, because she believes every person in this country deserves healthcare. This is the way.

Trump and Russia: Nearly 40 Years of Connections
Donald Trump’s connections to Russia did not begin with his presidency. They stretch back almost four decades - from Soviet Moscow and Russian money to Trump Tower Moscow, the 2016 campaign, Vladimir Putin, and now Trump’s own family.
Here is the documented timeline:
* 1987: Trump visits Moscow at the invitation of Soviet Ambassador Yuri Dubinin and explores building a luxury hotel in partnership with Soviet authorities. Shortly after returning, Trump takes out full-page newspaper ads criticizing U.S. foreign policy and arguing that America’s allies should pay more for their own defense.
* 1996: Trump again pursues plans for a Trump-branded development in Moscow. It is one of several attempts over decades to establish a major Trump property in Russia.
* 2005: The Trump Organization works with Bayrock Group and Soviet-born businessman Felix Sater to pursue another Trump Tower Moscow project. Sater would remain involved in Trump’s attempts to do business in Russia for years.
* 2006: Donald Trump Jr. and Ivanka Trump travel to Moscow while the Trump Organization explores Russian real-estate opportunities.
* 2008: Russian billionaire Dmitry Rybolovlev buys Trump’s Palm Beach mansion for $95 million. Trump had purchased it for about $41 million four years earlier. The transaction generated scrutiny because of the enormous increase in price.
* 2008: Donald Trump Jr. tells a real-estate conference that Russians make up a “pretty disproportionate cross-section of a lot of our assets,” adding: “We see a lot of money pouring in from Russia.”
* 2000s–2010s: A Reuters investigation later identifies at least 63 people with Russian passports or addresses who purchased $98.4 million of property in seven Trump-branded luxury developments in South Florida.
* 2013: Trump takes the Miss Universe pageant to Moscow in partnership with Russian billionaire Aras Agalarov and his son Emin. Trump personally invites Vladimir Putin to attend.
* 2015: Trump signs a letter of intent for Trump Tower Moscow—this time while running for president of the United States.
* January 2016: Trump lawyer Michael Cohen contacts the office of Putin spokesman Dmitry Peskov seeking Russian government assistance with the Moscow project. Negotiations continue for months while Trump is publicly campaigning for president.
* June 2016: Donald Trump Jr. receives an offer of damaging information about Hillary Clinton described in an email as part of “Russia and its government’s support for Mr Trump.”
* 2016: Manafort shares internal Trump campaign polling and strategy with Konstantin Kilimnik who was later discovered to be a Russian intelligence officer.
* 2018: Standing beside Putin in Helsinki, Trump publicly casts doubt on the U.S. intelligence community’s conclusion that Russia interfered in the 2016 election and points to Putin’s “extremely strong and powerful” denial.
* 2019: Robert Mueller concludes that Russia interfered in the 2016 election in “sweeping and systematic fashion.” His investigation documents numerous contacts between Trump associates and Russian-linked individuals.
* 2025: former Soviet intelligence official Alnur Mussayev made an explosive allegation that Trump was formally recruited by KGB in 1987 and given the codename “Krasnov.”
* 2025: Trump’s Treasury Department removes former Sberbank executive Alexandra Buriko from the sanctions list. Treasury said she had separated from Sberbank and no longer met the criteria for sanctions, describing the decision as part of its normal reconsideration process.
* 2026: The Treasury Department removes former Russian finance minister and banking executive Mikhail Zadornov from the U.S. sanctions list.
* 2026: And now we learn that Putin-linked Russian businessman Umar Kremlev financed Donald Trump Jr.’s wedding in the Bahamas. Trump Jr. and his wife confirm that Kremlev paid for the celebrations and describe it as an extraordinarily generous gift from a friend.

Luttig: The precursor of this constitutional crisis is when and if Mike Johnson removes the incumbent clerk and replaces them with a loyalist.
That will tell the American people that Trump and Johnson are going to try this unconstitutional effort.
The loyalist clerk would refuse to list on the official roll of members-elect anyone that Mike Johnson told him not to. Hypothetically here, Democrats elect—and in particular, enough Democrats elect—so that the Democrats would not constitute a majority…

Trump learned from Roy Cohn - arguably the world's worst human ever. Cohn learned from reading Goebbels - the master at using propaganda to advance sociopathic ends. It's the same playbook.
Lie. Repeat. Admit nothing. Go all in. All the time. Double down. Deflect. Distract. Double down again. Admit nothing. Repeat for eternity.
When Trump is asked about any decision he made that proved faulty - large or small - he responds that he did nothing wrong.
But here's the key: Unlike Goebbels who created the playbook but was smart and self-aware of what he was doing, and unlike Cohn who weaponized it but was also smart and self-aware of what he was doing, Trump lives purely on instinct and pathology. He's disordered, not smart, ignorant, and unaware.
If only our media could understand this. Trump behaves according to his disorders. THAT'S how he should be covered.
Identify his cravings, and understand their underpinnings, and you can better predict his intent.
And remember that this pathology ALWAYS gets worse, and should NEVER be normalized.

When I worked ‘Celebrity Apprentice’ it was no secret that Melania hated Trump. Vanky hated Melania, Eric was an idiot & everyone hated Don Jr. It was also, no secret that Jared was in it for the access & had some nasty plans up his slender sleeves. Russian mob was all up in it.

Paolo Zampolli was the man who found Melania when Trump was obsessed with Carla Bruni. She walked into the Kit Kat Club on a hourly retainer and walked out with a lifetime contract. Well played, red sparrow. Your team won this round.

Corporate Media: “Do you worry [Abdul El-Sayed] is too left-wing to win in Michigan?”
Michigan voter: “At this point what do we have to worry about? Anything but what we have. We're on our way to hell so at this point, socialist, socialise, socialism, dont matter to me, lower my cost of living.”
This is the most fascinating exchange in the 2026 midterm cycle for a variety of reasons. Let’s break it down:
1. Abdul El-Sayed is not even a socialist, yet the reporter frames him as being too left-wing. This is how the corporate media and both parties control the political Overton window to protect capitalism and stop socialism.
2. They don’t want voters to know there is an entire political ideology outside of capitalism where workers can own the means of production and the economy can be structured to meet people’s social needs. Under capitalism the economy is structured to maximize profits for corporations and shareholders and it’s not working for anyone except the rich.
3. Due to the fact that capitalism is in decay and failing to meet people’s basic needs, the voter is no longer falling for the anti-socialist propaganda of the corporate media. The voter points out that her life is a living hell under the current capitalist system, which is why she is open and ready to embrace socialism.
4. This entire exchange validates that we are entering into a new era in US politics where fighting and organizing for socialism in the imperial core is not just possible, but a winning strategy. The next important step will be organizing this dissatisfaction with the capitalist status quo into an actual socialist party.

Simón Levy, an Israeli asset tasked with undermining Mexico's democracy and ally of Trump, says Flávio Bolsonaro reached the US in an operation coordinated by Marco Rubio. Bolsonaro is under investigation in Brazil for money laundering and other crimes, was barred from leaving the country.
jonn mccly retweeted
Losing an election is not grounds for asylum.
Yet the Trump Administration is giving Flávio Bolsonaro safe haven in the United States. In Brazil, he is under investigation for alleged corruption, money laundering and currency evasion, and was ordered to surrender his passports.
The Trump Administration owes Congress answers on its role helping Bolsonaro flee Brazil in contravention of Brazilian law.

⚡️Alibis for russian Mafia.
Donald and Putler are russian mafia dons.
I am not using ‘mafia’ as a metaphor.
They serve the russian Mafia nexus, solely.
Donald grew up next to Brighton Beach where hundreds of thousands of russians live.
Brighton Beach russian mafia runs Epstyn, Kuchners, Don, Witkoff and all the rest as agents, assets, whatever.
Those who cite ‘oh, this will ruin American arms industry,’ ‘Don will lose the midterms,’ ‘makes no sense, as Ukraine’s armaments are what US needs,’ ‘only a tiny amount of diesel,’ yaddah, yaddah are missing THE point.
The late great Karen Dawisha charted how russian mafia took over russian state. Installed its actor leaders. Promoted russkiy Mir as a fig leaf, an alibi for all the murder.
Today, the actual rus mafia controls Donald and those around him.
All this peace trolling, trolling for a Nobel prize, wanting to make a deal, Yaddah, yaddah is an alibi.
rus mafia runs the American state. Those who win the mid-terms must proceed on this basis. Augean stables must be thoroughly swept clean.
Meanwhile on the actual battlefield away from the alibi-creating spectacle of russian missiles without warning, space x treachery, Donald’s decline into mumbling mafia Don, Ukraine is winning.

Polish FM Radosław Sikorski:
"There is a myth that has been successfully planted in the West that Russia always wins.
But things don't always go their way.
They lost the Crimean War. They lost the war against Japan. They emerged from World War I with their tails between their legs.
They lost the invasion of Poland. They lost Afghanistan. And they lost the Cold War.
So things can turn out very differently." - @sikorskiradek
