I’ve posted about the Epstein files every day for many months, I write about the Epstein files every day, and we talk about the Epstein files every week on the pod. And I won’t stop until the full, unredacted (except for victim/witness info) files have been released.

He wants OUR TAXPAYER MONEY HANDED TO HIM. He wants our money. He’s making OUR WH into his own home. He is plotting to never leave and use OUR MONEY for himself. He will bleed this country dry along with all of us until WE have nothing and he has everything!! Why is no one stopping this lunacy?

Mike Johnson: "We're fighting for healthcare as well. Not just in word but in deed. We put in the one big beautiful bill, real reforms to Medicaid to make it work better." (The bill in fact cuts nearly $1 trillion from Medicaid.)

Under the plan, MAGA allies would be installed at the IRS criminal investigative division, where they would “exert firmer control over the unit and weaken the involvement of IRS lawyers in criminal investigations.” The administration is already drawing up a list of targets. trib.al/7bphzyZ

The people running this country have zero respect for the Constitution, laws, rules of ethics and professional responsibility, traditions or norms. They are lawless gangsters drunk on power and nobody in their party outside the admin has the courage or integrity to stop them.

New rule. If Congress doesn’t work, they don’t get paid. Who thinks that sounds good? ✋

Mike Johnson has now had the House adjourned for 74 out of the last 86 days. They have worked 12 days in 3 months. Epstein Shutdown.

He first threatened sanctions on Jan 19 if Russia didn’t cease fire. He has threatened to impose them many times since then. It is now Oct 17. He has done nothing.

Five months before catastrophic floods swept through the Alaska Native village of Kipnuk on Sunday, tearing many houses off their foundations, the Trump administration canceled a $20 million grant intended to protect the community from such extreme flooding.

This sounds familiar.

It’s been over 48 hours since this story broke & Jack Ciattarelli still hasn’t condemned the ‘Young Republicans’ who support slavery, “love Hitler,” & think rape is “epic.” … including this guy who pledged to spend all his time getting Jack elected 👇

It's testament to the criminality of the Republican Party that they don't want to know whether border czar Tom Homan kept the $50,000 in taxpayer money he pocketed in an FBI bribery sting and they don't even care if he paid taxes on it.

Hey can I get a quick check-in from all the "I Voted For This" MAGAs on flushing $40 billion of taxpayer money down the toilet to bail out Argentina for some reason? Can you explain your reasoning in demanding tens of billions of dollars of our cash go to a country we have very little to do with?

A Philadelphia man has been charged with kidnapping in connection with the disappearance of Kada Scott, 23, who went missing from her workplace 11 days ago and who investigators believe is in danger, according to a law enforcement source.

Uhhhh, given that the government is shut down and the yearly appropriations have expired, does anyone know where the funds for the Argentina bailout are coming from?

CUNY is the nation’s largest urban public university system and an engine of social mobility for the city's working class. But like so many of our public institutions, Andrew Cuomo subject it to years of disinvestment and neglect as Governor. That record cannot be forgotten.

So now that asshole has promised Argentina 40 billion dollars, instead of just the 20 billion. And we are ENRAGED about this? Cut services to Americans to bail out investors in Argentina’s stupid ideas!! It’s unreal!!

The U.S. Capitol Police was called about an American flag altered to include a swastika and displayed inside the office of Rep. Dave Taylor (R-Ohio). An American flag altered to include an image of a swastika was found in Rep. Dave Taylor’s office. www.politico.com/news/2025/10...

ICE agents surrounded, seized, and zip-tied a U.S. citizen who had just finished working a double shift because she didn’t “look” American to them. She had her U.S. passport on her when she was detained, yet she was interrogated for an hour. newrepublic.com/post/201745/...

Here is the official certificate of election for Adelita Grijalva D-AZ. She was elected on September 23 and still has not been sworn in by House Speaker Mike Johnson.

"How much have you heard about a White House official (Tom Homan) accepting a bag with $50,000 in cash in an undercover FBI investigation?" A Little: 22% A Lot: 14% Nothing at all: 63% YouGov / Oct 13, 2025

It’s amazing how all the reporting is just memory-holing this part

This. And this again.

The Atlantic’s journalists will not sign the Pentagon’s press policy. Statement here from editor in chief Jeffrey Goldberg:

🚨The absence of media coverage of this natural disaster in Alaska, the lost/missing people, and the destruction of the aftermath is up to us to share. Please help if you can - even if it is just spreading awareness. There is no FEMA going to help them. 1/2

100's of ideas, per Johnson, yet the only concrete thing we know is, the U.S. is providing a $20 billion currency swap with Argentina — essentially exchanging stable U.S. dollars with volatile pesos. That would have covered a lot of insurance for AMERICANS. www.publicnotice.co/p/republican...

NEW: There’s a disaster unfolding in Alaska right now. And no major network is covering it. The remnants of Typhoon Halong battered western Alaska overnight. Homes, with people in them, have literally been swept into the Bering Strait. At least 20 are missing. No comment from any federal agency.

Wheelchairs and mobility aids are not optional luggage. They are a person’s legs, stability, safety, and often only way of getting around. Yet, they are considering not holding airlines accountable for damaging them.
