Tim Sheehy was stunned into some temporary silence after being fact checked on just who was responsible for the cancellation of a hydrogen project in his state. From NPR last week: Trump administration cancels hydrogen project slated for St. Regis in western Montana: October 15, 2025 at 5:54 PM EDT Whiskey Pete has even lost Fox "news" with his latest ridiculous demand. Nearly every major media outlet is refusing to sign a pledge crafted by Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth that would require Pentagon reporters to agree not to publish "unauthorized" material""effectively prohibiting journalists from publishing anything unless the Trump administration okays it first. October 15, 2025 at 5:54 PM EDT Well, lookee here! The Wall Street Journal did actual journalism, checking police reports in Portland to see whether there was anything to Trump's version of a fiery hellhole. Now, we all knew it wasn't true, but an awful lot of "news" sources treated Trump's insanity as reality. Via the Wall Street Journal: On Sept. 5, President Trump described ongoing protests in Portland as "unbelievable" and "the destruction of the city." October 15, 2025 at 2:05 PM EDT by Annelise Hanshaw, Missouri Independent October 13, 2025 State funding of private-school vouchers is primarily being used for students attending religious institutions, with nearly 98% of funding going toward Catholic, Christian, Jewish and Islamic schools. October 15, 2025 at 2:05 PM EDT "Joy is a form of protest. Being together with mutual respect and kindness is a form of protest," the naked bike ride's organizers said on Instagram. "It's your choice how much or little you wear." And they showed up, filling the streets with bicycles, wearing inflatable costumes, or nothing at all. Naked bike rides have thronged the streets of Portland every year since 2004, but this was an "emergency" event to peacefully rally against the Trump administration's use of military force in the largest city in Oregon. October 15, 2025 at 12:14 PM EDT During today's press gaggle, Speaker Johnson claimed that Americans exercising their First Amendment right to protest Donald Trump is now considered to be anti-American? This is a cult. October 15, 2025 at 12:14 PM EDT On Tuesday, the Wisconsin legislature took up a joint resolution to honor the late right wing influencer Charlie Kirk. It went as well as you might have expected. The resolution in itself was ridiculous in it's over the top and undeserved praise: October 15, 2025 at 10:53 AM EDT The Trump administration are flipping out over NoKings protests by already blaming Antifa (aka antifascists). Appearing on the Charlie Kirk show, Treasury Sec. Scott Bessent claimed the US only captured Osama bin Laden after 9/11, with no mention of what reality was -- Bin Laden was killed by Seal Team Six. What rock are these creeps living under? it was a much publicized event when OBL was killed by Navy Seals during the Obama administration. Trump has been very jealous ever since - even going to so far as lying about predicting bin Laden would attack America in some book. October 15, 2025 at 10:53 AM EDT I'm no expert on the Peace Prize but I am pretty sure that a murder spree against civilians you never provide evidence of being dangerous drug smugglers and suggesting your own citizens deserve the same fate over their ideology are not pluses for the Nobel committee. On Tuesday, Donald Trump, the guy who is supposed to be president for all Americans, announced that the large number of Americans on the left "have the devil's ideology" and "seem to become very violent." Never mind that protests against him and his regime have been overwhelmingly peaceful and even playful. October 15, 2025 at 8:39 AM EDT My father always said there was no sane reason for anyone who wasn't wealthy to vote for a Republican, and nothing proves his point more than the ongoing Republican fuckery over healthcare. Here's Paul Waldman summing up the worst-case scenario, via Public Notice: Most Americans probably don't have a detailed grasp of what's happening with subsidies right now, but once people start getting letters notifying them of how much their premiums are going up, it will become a much bigger issue. At the moment, according to the latest KFF tracking poll, 78 percent of Americans favor extending the subsidies -- including 59 percent of Republicans. To try to win the support of Senate Democrats, Republicans have suggested they'd promise to hold a vote on extending the subsidies after the government reopens, which is very different from actually extending them. October 14, 2025 at 11:00 PM EDT On the morning of 14 October 1964, Martin Luther King, sleeping in an Atlanta hospital room after checking in for a rest, was awakened by a phone call from his wife, Coretta Scott King, telling him that he had been awarded the Nobel Prize for Peace. Although many in the United States and abroad praised the selection, segregationist Eugene "Bull" Connor called it "scraping the bottom of the barrel" ("Cheers and Scorn"). Presenting the award to King in Oslo, Norway, that December, the chairman of the Nobel Committee praised him for being "the first person in the Western world to have shown us that a struggle can be waged without violence. He is the first to make the message of brotherly love a reality in the course of his struggle, and he has brought this message to all men, to all nations and races" (Jahn, "Presentation," 332). October 14, 2025 at 7:01 PM EDT Actress and activist Frances Fisher punked Donald Trump over his indignation that Americans celebrate Indigenous People's Day as well as Columbus Day and laid out several tweets having Trump rename the holiday for himself and Jeffrey Epstein.
