I had the opportunity to confront Pete Hegseth's bigoted spiritual mentor, Pastor Doug Wilson, and call him out on his history of hate, his misreading of the Bible, his hijacking of Jesus, and his cosplay Crusading.

It was worth it.

Detroit gas station clerk saved teenage girl from man after she mouthed 'help' to him "I feel good when you save somebody," Yemeni immigrant Abdulrahman Abohatem told local TV.

The 16-year-old girl was saved by Abdulrahman Abohatem, a young Yemeni immigrant.

I'm sure President Klansman and Team MAGA will get right on publicizing this.

Won't they?

U.S. Installs a Trump Loyalist to Lead ‘Grand Conspiracy’ Case Into Trump Foes

(🚨) OK, the time has come.

Everyone needs to read the 2020 bestseller Proof of Corruption, in which the man pictured below is a key antagonist trying to steal the 2020 election for Trump.

Don't care about the money here, just borrow it from the library.

The job diGenova had in the 2020 election was to regularly meet secretly at a Trump hotel restaurant with a team tasked with manufacturing fake pro-Biden foreign election interference.

Trump picking him to prosecute supposed election interference is a five-alarm national fire.

As a journalist I've spilled more words on crooked Trump lawyer Joe diGenova and his lawyer partner Victoria Toensing than any author writing in English. For years I told U.S. media to watch these two, as their specialty is Roger Stone-style election ratfuckery.

Now here we are.

My response at a candidates' forum last week to an opponent's suggestion that we can't impeach and remove Donald Trump but somehow instead can and should pass wonderful legislation (which I support!) that will keep him from abusing his power and wrecking our democracy ….

"The court's order notes how the controversy began when 'social media influencer Laura Loomer posted a link to the Facebook group and tagged Pamela Bondi and Kristi Noem' on Oct. 12, 2025.

Two days later, the group was gone."

It was not removed due to any actual violation of Facebook's terms.

What I Saw Inside the Kennedy Center I spent 10 months working at the institution because I thought I could help protect it. What I observed there is far worse than the public knows.

"Top staffers were figures with connections to GOP politics who hadn’t worked in the arts, including one spouse of a Republican party leader whose longest professional experience was working as a marketing and events manager at a Toyota dealership in Ireland..."

Mamdani: "What are we fighting for?. When you look back at the history books of our party, 100 years ago we had a very clear vision of what we were fighting for. It's sad that for too many Americans, when they want to look for ambition in the Democratic Party, then have to turn to a history book."

Ossoff: I don’t know who placed those trades, but I’ll tell you this: the SEC better find out. And if they won’t, when you elect this new majority in Congress and you give us gavels and subpoenas, we will.

Buttigieg: I’ll give the Turning Point folks a lot of strategic credit for going to a lot of different places. Going to these college campuses is kind of the equivalent, in their minds, of the way I feel when I go on Fox News.

The difference is, when I go on Fox News, I’m telling the truth

Billionaires should not be making tax policy.

Businesses should not be making tax policy.

Tax policy is a tool for managing the behaviour of the rich.

Letting them dictate tax policy is like letting the worst kids at school decide the classroom rules.

Peter Schiff: The most likely explanation for Trump's Truth Social lies about Iran on Friday, is market manipulation. If so, Trump insiders must have made billions. The next likely possibility is that Trump is either delusional, incompetent, or a combination of both. Either way it's not good.

Opinion | My friend is locked up in Kuwait for committing journalism Caroline Modarressy-Tehrani: Award-winning independent journalist Ahmed Shihab-Eldin has been detained in Kuwait for the past six weeks.

“Every American should be worried about the state of play right now for journalists worldwide if democracy matters to them. Ahmed is an American citizen, but importantly, he is a journalist who should not be detained for the act of being a journalist.” www.ms.now/opinion/kuwa...
