Trump issues sinister threat to "root out" leftists if elected in 2024
The serially indicted fraudster pledged during a Veterans Day speech over the weekend to "root out" those he described as "radical left thugs that live like vermin within the confines of our country" if he's elected in 2024, an openly fascistic threat that drew comparisons to Nazi rhetoric. If it goose steps like a fascist duck and quacks like a fascist duck...

VIDEO OF THE DAY: Trump stumbles into utter confusion on pep rally stage
The serially indicted ex-president and gold-plated grievance generator stumbled yet again and forgot — for the umpteenth time — who the current president of the United States is, complaining about Barack Obama and how he should resign so Donnie himself can somehow be reinstated. Let's definitely continue talking about cognitive decline on the campaign trail, though.

Anti-democracy extremists exposed plotting to overturn the will of 2024 voters
Brennan Center for Justice: A new lawsuit in Michigan aims to overturn two major voting rights measures overwhelmingly approved by voters — and to stop voters from ever passing new voting rights laws again. The Brennan Center for Justice is spearheading the fight against this undemocratic power grab and the many similar plots being rammed through state legislatures across the country. Will you chip in to support their efforts and make sure that we have free and fair elections in 2024?
Tim Scott abruptly drops out of the 2024 presidential race
The South Carolina senator's surprise exit stunned his campaign staff, who apparently had no advanced warning of the also-ran's plans, despite his consistently abysmal polling numbers. Coincidentally, Scott's surprise entrance to the race earlier this year stunned basically everyone not on his campaign staff. That bird was never getting its wings, folks.

Government shutdown looms as new House speaker struggles to control radical right-wing hardliners
Different leader, same broke-ass caucus. When your party is filled with clowns, you always end up with a circus.

"QAnon Shaman" apparently running for Congress
35-year-old convicted felon Jacob Chansley filed a candidate statement of interest last week, indicating he wants to run as a Libertarian in next year's election for Arizona's 8th Congressional District seat. Ok, fine, Jacob. On one condition: you have to stay in costume. The whole time.
Trump was privately enthralled by baseless theory he could be reinstated as president in 2021
Despite losing the 2020 election by more than seven million votes, the disgraced ex-president came to believe a fringe conspiracy theory that he could be reinstated long after leaving office and before the next election, a new book by ABC's "This Week" co-anchor Jonathan Karl reveals. It's almost as if Donald and the QAnon-baked GOP have been — and continue to be — engaged in a deranged, delusional feedback loop of mania-driven lies.

Vivek Ramaswamy proposes batshit crazy, "unrestrained chainsaw" scheme to slash federal workforce in half
Future presidential also-ran and current Nikki Haley punching bag Vivek Ramaswamy took to Twitter, or whatever Elon is calling it these days, and proposed a super reasonable, definitely-not-half-baked plan to halve the federal workforce on his theoretical first day in office, using an "unrestrained chainsaw" to get the job done. Who would find themselves terminated in Vivek's brilliant scheme? Ramaswamy proposed using the highly scientific method of removing those government workers whose social security number ends in an odd number, because if there's one thing history has taught us, it's that humans love being ostracized and oppressed by political leaders using completely arbitrary, meritless metrics.
Gaza’s al-Quds Hospital ceases operations amid Israeli attacks
The Palestine Red Crescent Society says the al-Quds Hospital, the second largest in Gaza, has ceased operations due to a fuel shortage as Israeli forces continue to bomb the besieged enclave. The international aid organization said it held the international community and signatories of the Fourth Geneva Convention accountable for the complete breakdown of Gaza’s healthcare system and the resulting dire humanitarian crisis.
Ronna McDaniel says RNC will support Trump even if he’s convicted
When Donald Trump told his followers back in 2016 he could shoot someone in Times Square and no one would care, he wasn't just talking about his teeming MAGA minions. The Republican Party writ large has been and is an active accomplice in the most disastrous, treasonous, unAmerican political experiment in modern history. There is not bottom. Power is all.
