As to the Swalwell report: 1. The truth should be worked out via legal process. 2. Dems can't have anyone facing such allegations as a candidate. 3. MAGAs wouldn't care about this; that's immaterial. 4. Politics is informing how some folks are responding; that's also immaterial.

It's notable to me that Swalwell's backers and supporters are INSTANTLY fleeing him, not fooling around with "this is troubling let's see." It makes me wonder whether he already had a bad rep -- whether this was instantly credible to people familiar with him.

Dans drops out to consolidate the anti-Lindsey vote in the Republican primary behind Mark Lynch. He refers to Lindsey as “Lady Graham”.

Pete Hegseth's Defense Dept appears to be caught in a lie. It involves deaths of 21 people (including at least 5 children), injuring 110 in Lamerd, Iran with sports hall and school. By a U.S. missile (PrSM) never before used in combat. NYT sources include: 3 US officials! 1/

Well done Artemis II! We are so proud. We needed that. 👏🥳🥰🎉🪅🌛🌙☪️🌜🥳👏🎉🪅🎉🪅🥳👏🌜☪️🌙❤️🎉👏🥳

At least since Swalwell is a Democrat, the victims won’t be personally attacked in a vicious and vindictive manner, their family members won’t be investigated, harassed and smeared, and the reporters writing the stories won’t be sued.

I’m deeply disturbed and disappointed by the new allegations against Congressman Swalwell. We stand with survivors and hold people accountable. It takes courage to come forward. I withdraw my endorsement.

Congratulations to the astronauts and to all involved in the Artemis II mission. Amazing and inspiring to see their historic journey and safe return to Earth.

I love this photo of astronaut Christina Koch looking back at Earth from Artemis II. She's the first woman to see the full sphere of our beautiful planet. Welcome home to the crew, and thank you for reminding us of all we can discover together.

This flew under the radar: Trump's new acting AG Todd Blanche shut down major DOJ investigations into crypto companies, dealers, and exchanges as Pam Bondi's second-in-command — all while holding at least $159,000 in crypto assets himself. The fox is guarding the hen house.

Rev. Al Sharpton founded the National Action Network in 1991. More than three decades later, the fight for dignity, opportunity, and justice has taken new forms, and the work is more important than ever. Thank you, Reverend, for convening us and for hosting today’s fireside chat at #NANCONV2026.

Gotta wonder what’s going on, Hungary is a small country yet Trump and Vance are obsessed with Orban. Hungary first foreign policy? Hungarians…. I hope the Trump endorsement is the kiss of political death it should be

Trump’s latest comments on Iran make clear he’s still trying to bullshit his way through it

House Judiciary Ranking Member Jamie Raskin is demanding the White House physician perform a cognitive test on Trump in light of his recent comments on Iran. tinyurl.com/3xpptf8u

Hungary, don't buy this bs. Everything he touches dies.

Who dis?

As the Pentagon purges some minorities and women from high-ranking positions, the message being sent to lower-ranking officers is that “they will be assessed on the basis of their gender, race, or politics, rather than their abilities,” Adam Serwer writes:

"Shit, crashed another one. Oh well, back to where I saved"

Keep in mind that everywhere ICE is, your local police have failed you, and abandoned their oath to serve and protect. Zero Ice officers have been arrested. They assault, the kidnap, they kill, and they all walk free. Your local police treat ICE as above the law. The betrayal of duty is staggering.

Trump just gave Iran $6 billion

The fascist international: Donald Trump, JD Vance, Marine Le Pen, Vladimir Putin, have joined in a rousing show of warmth and support for Viktor Orbán. How's that playing? Hungarians see it as evidence that Orbán is the puppet of foreigners who don't have the country's best interests at heart

25th this guy already.

Here we go again...

"Melania chose not to include any assertion of her husband’s innocence in the Epstein affair. Melania is no fool. And now she seems to think that the man to whom she hitched herself may be going down. She’s trying to arrange not to go down with him." open.substack.com/pub/thebulwa...

The plan to demonize creativity, the arts and entrepreneurship while simultaneously shoving AI products down our throats that seemingly make 99% of things worse isn't going to work. We need the robots do the laundry while the people make stuff robots can't dream of. That's a good future.

Their brains are wired differently. Their thinking seems completely illogical.

🏳️‍🌈 Miami Beach just unveiled its relocated rainbow crosswalk this morning! Now rebuilt in city-owned Lummus Park — just feet from the original spot on Ocean Drive & 12th Street, where the state ripped it out last year. Pride always finds a way! 🌈

I don't know if Netanyahu *literally* told Trump to go f*ck himself in response to Trump begging Israel to reduce its ceasefire-killing attacks on Lebanon, but surely that's the *implicit* message behind Israel continuing to pound the sh*t out of that nation. Weakest POTUS ever.

Whoa no way, can't believe it.

NEW: The DNC just passed a resolution condemning dark money donations - including those to AIPAC. A member of the DNC proposed a resolution condemning dark money through AIPAC, but the DNC panel rejected that and expanded it to include all dark money donations.

Sickening. Bunch of perverts.

Top Democrat on House Judiciary formally asks White House physician to conduct cognitive exam of Trump: “Experts have repeatedly warned that the President has been exhibiting signs consistent with dementia and cognitive decline… increasingly incoherent, volatile, profane, deranged, and threatening.”

No matter how they spin it, this cease-fire is putting us in a worse place than where we were before.

I'm still dying to find out whether Trump tried to destroy video evidence on servers by draining the pool into the server room.

So now we're going to go BACK to war against Iran to distract from ...(check headlines)...The Epstein-Melania Files

Rick Scott scowls on Fox Business, doesn't greet the host at all, and the first words out of his mouth are "Jeffries is an idiot"

It looks like Chinese netizens are trying to compete with the Iranians in trolling Trump. He’s such an easy target, lol. 🎯

If corporations are lining up to donate to the White House, there are really only two explanations: either CEOs suddenly love paying taxes voluntarily... or they're expecting something in return. The question worth asking is simple: if they're buying, what is the White House selling?
