The White House is now like one of those outsider art shacks in the California desert where the probably crazy occupant just keeps gluing weird stuff on the walls.

And that's that. www.axios.com/2026/04/11/e...

there are so many consequences of everyday people not really understanding how journalism works and people on here thinking there was some sort of massive media coverup of Eric Swalwell being a monster fundamentally is rooted in total misunderstanding of what real reporting requires.

Stunning reporting here that shows U.S. troops were left exposed in a known target zone with virtually no drone defenses. Now the soldiers themselves are calling out the Pentagon’s version of events as false. Hegseth and Trump keep lying to the American people about this war.

A win! A federal judge just ordered the government to hand over evidence from ICE agent Jonathan Ross’s killing of Renee Good.

"The man ICE shot, Carlos Ivan Mendoza Hernandez is said to remain in critical condition. His attorney said he was shot six or seven times and reiterated that he believes the man only tried to drive away because agents started shooting."

NEW: Statement from Swalwell's senior staffers: "We stand with our former colleague and the other women that have come forward. We believe you should stand with them, too."

Earlier, I posted a video of a lady octopus throwing rocks at an annoying male. It has been brought to my attention the video was AI. Since I abhor AI, I’ve deleted that post. Please enjoy this real video of a lady octopus throwing stuff at annoying males with my apologies.

Allow me to clarify. I'm not suggesting we jail Swalwell without a conviction. I'm suggesting we can believe the women without a conviction. Telling women you don't believe them unless and until they get a conviction at trial is very traumatizing.

When people say the Swalwell allegations are a distraction from Trump/Epstein (they are all part of the same bigger picture), I have to wonder why these people even supposedly care about Trump and Epstein. Do you care about sexual violence or don’t you? Why do you only care about some of it?

a criminal conviction isn’t required to say someone does not have the moral character to run for office and i don’t understand why this needs to be said over and over and over again.

yea i feel like this is being glossed over?? like he’s admitted to at the very minimum being a creep, so why would you want him to be governor?

For instance, Marco Rubio.

Crushed. Betrayed. I don’t even have the words. The support Eric Swalwell provided gave me an opportunity to heal for the first time since being sexually assaulted as a college freshman. Knowing now who he truly is, is devastating. PTSD and pain.

If you’re still asking why Eric Swalwell got exposed now please read this.

Fun fact: Michelle Obama and Jill Biden never had to hold a press conference to deny being part of a sex trafficking ring

This x 💯 x 💯

I'm really sorry for all the SA survivors having to put up with the onslaught of INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY IN A COURT OF LAW bullshit going around the internet today. I see you, and I know it's traumatizing.

One step further: it should be unthinkable that we would register people for the draft without first making sure that they are registered to vote. And indeed: it makes no sense generally to hold elections without making every effort to make it as easy as possible to vote! That’s what democracies do.

For the record, I was a Swalwell supporter and had planned on voting for him in the primary. Me believing the women was not political. It's based on the corroboration of evidence confirmed by multiple news outlets, and the Manhattan DA finding enough evidence exists to open a criminal probe.

I still get threats from men I wrote about a decade ago who are angry I covered federal lawsuits against them related to sexual assault allegations. To my personal email, to new work emails. I don’t think readers understand how difficult and laborious it is to get these stories published

This is a RIGHT-WING PARTISAN WITCH HU— ... oh, wait

Unfollowed @ericswalwell.bsky.social today. Time for him to drop out of the Ca. governor’s race.

NEW: The Manhattan DA has launched a criminal investigation into Eric Swalwell after a former staffer for the congressman accused him of having sex with her when she was unable to consent. www.kten.com/news/politic...

Remember when all the hand-wringing centrists were saying how Mamdani was tied to Uganda, how Mamdani was a Muslim, how Mamdani had all these suspect foreign loyalties?

We need Democrats to repeatedly, clearly, and with great specificity talk about the accountability to come for the regime.

Corey Lewandowski was allegedly trading access to DHS contracts for direct cash payments. This is clear corruption. Oversight Democrats are investigating and we will hold him accountable.

this is all a nice reminder that together we can do big things

it remains unclear to me what "price gouging" or "profiteering" means from people who believe in unregulated capitalism

Again my thesis is the great divide in politics is being driven by positive emotions and negative ones, and the coalition of the loving needs to win .

My step-dad died of pancreatic cancer. It was brutal and I’d do anything to prevent another family from having to go through it. Livid.

“It’s not possible for us to take care of day care, Medicaid, Medicare, all these individual things,” Trump said.

When Trump needed the conspiracy-theorizing masses of Alex Jones in his coalition, he was fine with Jones' Sandy Hook denial. Now that Alex Jones has shown disloyalty to *him,* suddenly Trump professes to care about it. This gets at MAGA's deepest perversities. newrepublic.com/article/2089...

Officials in Minnesota have sued the Trump administration, saying federal officials are withholding evidence in the killings of U.S. citizens Alex Pretti and Renee Macklin Good by immigration agents in Minneapolis, as well as the non-fatal shooting of a Venezuelan man.

If your bro code involves protecting the feelings of your friends when they hurt people, your bro code is violence

You're a foreign official campaigning in a foreign election for one preferred side, JD. Think about it. Take all the time you need.

The shared excitement over NASA’s recent mission compared to the general indifference to SpaceX missions speaks to the power of something seen as the product of communal human effort rather than just the ego and avarice of one obnoxious dork.

If it's a full pardon, no. It applies to both guilt and punishment, including restitution. This is why Trump's pardon of various fraudsters ensures their victims are never made whole

Pete Hegseth is fighting the religious crazy dudes in Iran in order to…make America more like Iran.

According to newly-submitted renderings, Trump’s proposed massive triumphal arch in DC includes gold treatments (reminiscent of what he’s added to Oval Office) The arch would tower high above Arlington Natl Cemetery (which is drawing a lot of pushback)

Is this a thing that's actually happening here on Earth One? Or is this another thing Trump is creating in his imaginary fantasy universe where everything is perfect and wonderful thanks to Trump?

Fuck this guy forever
