Another day, another Republican GUILTY of voter fraud. This time it’s Sara Polston of Oklahoma, who voted twice as a convicted felon.
She served only 73 days of an 8 year sentence, courtesy of Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt, who has ties to Polston. #VoterFraud

I spelled out "superpower suicide" in this essay from May 2026.
Empires have risen and failed before, but to my knowledge no state has ever chosen to kill its own power, and succeeded with such rapidity.

NEW: Remember when John Oliver opened a church to expose how easy it was to get tax exemptions?

This year, ProPublica reporters set out to establish private schools to test if, truly, anyone could open one.

We founded two. Here’s how.
How ProPublica Reporters Became Private School Owners in 24 Hours
The reporting experiment demonstrates how easy it can be to open private schools that might then access public money. No credentials or background checks required.

🇲🇩 A Russian attack struck near the Palanca border checkpoint between #Moldova and Ukraine. A shell ricocheted into a civilian bus, damaging a control booth. One Moldovan border guard was lightly injured, and the checkpoint was closed.
Russia is trying to disrupt international aid to Ukraine. In just a few weeks, it has attacked Ukrainian border crossings 6 times – 4 times on the Moldovan border and twice on the Romanian border. The latest attack on the Moldovan border on Sep 9 killed at least two people.

Black site docket? Just call it what it is, a kangaroo court designed to deport people without transparency or due process. It's an affront to everything America stands for!
Creating chaos to get your way! Make it difficult to find your courtroom.
Immigrants miss their appointments. They are ordered deported. They don't have a right to a lawyer, so none are provided. Immigration rights are not like criminal rights except 5th amendment due process.

Hoping Americans for Separation of Church and State gets on this lawsuit real quick.

Also good to remember that Hegseth is in an apocalyptic doomsday cult. He's trying to bring about the end of the world through war in the Middle East. Bc he can't read his Bible and he's a bigot.
Hegseth: "Today, at my direction, I'm establishing the Office of Religious Affairs. It will report straight to the top -- a direct line to the secretary ... as Psalm 33:12 extolls us, blessed is the nation in which God is the Lord"

Darline Graham is bragging that she cast the deciding vote to confirm Blanche.
1. The texts came from the DOJ.
2. Grassley knew about them.
3. Grassley did not include the texts in the memo to the committee.
4. Grassley did not share the texts with the Dems on the panel.
