EU says Elon should not lie abt my blue check
@emptywheel2h
Something that's not being said. The REASON why @AGToddBlanche and @USAttyEssayli are so defiantly violating the Constitution is bc John Roberts said they can't be prosecuted so long as they're following Trump's illegal orders. Blanche's criminality arises DIRECTLY out of Trump v. US.

Swung by Beth and Joe’s farm in Dunlap this week to talk about how skyrocketing diesel prices from the war Ashley Hinson voted 7x to continue and chaotic tariffs she’s voted for 5x are impacting family farms like theirs. In the Senate, I will fight to end the forever wars and always have our farmers’ backs.

Why is Trump making so many concessions to Russia now? I think it's three things. #HighStakes

BASH: The worry is that we end up in a situation where President Trump tries to overturn the election and the result of that could be like what we saw after January 6-- BLANCHE: Stop it! You gotta stop it with that! That's crazy BASH: This is a president who has a history

Yes, the State Department asking foreign service officials up for promotion who they voted for in the last three presidential elections does raise concerns that the agency is violating federal ethics law. washingtonsun.com/administra…

Putin knows exactly what he’s doing.   While Kushner and Witkoff are trying to negotiate an end to the war in Ukraine, the Kremlin is dangling lucrative business opportunities in front of them at the same time they are pushing for a deal more favorable to Russia.   And the people positioned to benefit from those opportunities just happen to have ties to the Trump family. Even Don Jr.’s college buddy is trying to get in on the action, pursuing a business deal with one of Russia’s largest energy companies.   All of this is happening while Trump pressures Ukraine to surrender territory that Putin seized by force.   Putin wants Russia back in the Western economy and people close to Trump are already looking at how to make money if that happens.   At some point, you have to ask: why does Putin keep getting more of what he wants from Trump while people in Trump’s orbit keep finding new ways to make money off of a closer relationship with Russia?

Defense of 24 absentee ballot being mailed to Kansas is my favorite part: “All my official mail has gone to my assistant for years,” he explained. So his assistant is in… Kansas? #IAGov
Zach Lahn never beating the Kansas carpetbagger allegations: “Mr. Lahn cast an Iowa ballot in the 2024 general election. But voting records that have not previously been reported show he requested that his ballot be mailed to him — in Kansas.” nytimes.com/2026/10/25/us/po…

ICE thug ripped phone from elderly US citizen, pocketed it, then body-slammed her. Not law enforcement. Robbery and felony assault by a masked goon. No immunity. Identify, charge, prosecute to the fullest extent of state law.

HEADLINE: trump is bragging about making money while people are suffering at the pump. November is coming.
TRUMP on HIGH GAS PRICES: We’re making money like we’ve never made before. They’ll say: President Trump is bragging about all the money they're making while people are suffering at the pump. I don’t give a damn. We’re making a freaking fortune.

Trump was never sending Kushner and Witkoff to broker peace. He was having those two crooks sell our Alaskan public land and our Alaskan natural resources to the fucking Russians as if it were his. ft.com/content/e9cfbfbb-e65a…

Anyone recognize who’s sitting next to Jared Kushner? Oh that’s just Leon Black. The one who’s suing to avoid testimony after he was served a subpoena from the Oversight Committee…regarding Jeffrey Epstein. No biggie. I’m sure it’s nothing.

Replying to @MAHA_Action
Lahn will do none of this for two reasons: A) because much of it is beyond the power of a governor, and B) because he has no intention of actually doing anything but working to enrich himself and his donors (just like every other pedo-loving republican).

Iowa voters, don’t forget: Zach Lahn, Ashley Hinson, Brenna Bird and Joe Mitchell happily kissed Trump’s ass in Sioux City after he sided with the mother who enabled the rape of her 12-year-old daughter and stayed with the pedophile until he died. The Iowa GOP, y’all.
"The mother is calling the daughter a terrible person and a liar. Everybody should be so lucky," Trump says in Iowa, explaining why he advised Ramaswamy to keep the Acton ad up. "So I told him leave it up and look upstairs and say thank you, God, very much. I appreciate it." Trump continues to ignore how Acton's stepfather was indicted by a grand jury on charges of sexually abusing her. Says he "got a call from Vivek. He said, 'What would you recommend? Because I'm getting killed in the press.'"

Amy Acton slams Vivek Ramaswamy: Mr. Ramaswamy will absolutely put the wants of billionaires over the needs of working families. He has said Medicaid and Medicare are mistakes, all while our hospitals are collapsing. In Ohio, we work hard and we watch out for one another. My opponent just doesn't get it. Mr. Ramaswamy, you are not just out of touch. You are out for yourself, and you are a danger to my state.
