2026-11-02T23:24:21Z

Tomorrow will be seen around the world as a referendum on American democracy -- as a measure of how much the American people want to start rolling back Donald Trump’s authoritarian state.

So why aren't major news organizations describing it that way?

Everything we knew was true was true! Trump, Blanche, Patel sent instructions to prosecute the "Broadview Six" and everyone's been lying about it ever since. Now the former FBI SAIC(!) is telling all. [storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...](https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.ilnd.510708/gov.uscourts.ilnd.510708.1.0.pdf )

Ranked-choice voting actually makes the double-Sullivan ploy ineffective. If anyone is confused, they vote for both. And unless Peltola gets over 50%, they get combined. So why run this deceptive article? Guess.

Total respect for NBC's Monica Alba, who asked Trump exactly the question he needs to answer. By refusing to answer, and attacking her, he has effectively told the world that no, sexual abuse allegations do no mean a thing to him. Imagine if she wasn't there. We'd be the poorer for it.

Every Democrat going on air should take the first question and then say something like “Before I answer that I need to express my outrage and disgust at the president’s bigoted and vulgar insults about the Somali people. There is something seriously wrong with him. He is a sick man.”

OK so wait. Trump talked to Bolsonaro last night and was planning to meet him “in the very near future”? Sounds to me like he was in on the escape plan.
