Trump fills Madison Square Garden with anger, vitriol, and racist threats
The Republican nominee for president of the United States gathered with a who's who of GOP stakeholders and MAGA enablers for an absolute shit show of a rally in New York City with nine days to go before Election Day. Conspiratorial anger and unchecked vitriol took center stage, as Donald Trump and a cabal of campaign surrogates held an hourslong assembly marked by racist comments, coarse insults, and dangerous, baseless threats about immigrants. The entire affair reminded us of humorist David Sedaris' quote on undecided voters: "To put them in perspective, I think of being on an airplane. The flight attendant comes down the aisle with her food cart and, eventually, parks it beside my seat. 'Can I interest you in the chicken?' she asks. 'Or would you prefer the platter of shit with bits of broken glass in it?' To be undecided in this election is to pause for a moment and then ask how the chicken is cooked." [RETWEET THAT!]

Florida Democrat exposes Rick Scott as the snake he is
Debbie Murcasel-Powell for Senate: Democratic Senate candidate Debbie Murcasel-Powell is calling out GOP Senator Rick Scott for being Florida's biggest snake — a man who slithers away from debates, who stole money from seniors in the biggest Medicare fraud ever ($1.7 BILLION!), who damaged his state’s ability to fight against climate change and supports the abortion bans that are killing women. Debbie Murcasel-Powell has vowed to restore abortion rights, confront the climate crisis, and support Vice President Harris’ transformational agenda. Dose of Democracy is working overtime to help elect Debbie Murcasel-Powell and protect our Senate majority. Will you chip in to help flip this key red seat blue?

Trump says on Joe Rogan podcast his biggest White House mistake was hiring "disloyal people"
Fawning over dictators? Uh-uh. Exploding the national debt? Give us a break. The Ukrainian quid pro quo? Nope. Thoroughly bungling COVID? Not a chance. Inciting an insurrection and trying to overthrow American democracy? Forget about it. Donald Trump's biggest mistake, according to the MAGA cult leader himself, was hiring "disloyal people" who wouldn't let him rule like a god-king and use the Oval Office for the sole purpose of enriching and empowering himself. If it walks, talks, and campaigns like a fascist, it will govern like a fascist. Eight days, people.

Israeli strikes in Gaza kill 70 as UN chief calls civilians’ plight "unbearable"
Approximately 70 people have been killed in Israeli airstrikes in the past day, health officials in Gaza said, as Israel’s renewed campaign in the north of the strip shows no sign of slowing despite the revival of ceasefire talks after a three-month-long hiatus. Information about the situation in northern Gaza has become increasingly sporadic and difficult to verify as Israel’s new ground and aerial assault focusing on Jabaliya, Beit Lahiya, and Beit Hanoun enters its fourth week. Internet and phone services have been down for hours at a time, and civil defense workers have been unable to reach the sites of recent strikes due to Israeli forces’ ever-tightening siege and attacks on their crews. The death toll from an Israeli airstrike on Beit Lahia on Saturday evening rose to 40 on Sunday, according to the Palestinian news agency Wafa. Another strike on houses in Jabaliya on Sunday morning killed 20 people, and 11 more people were killed in the bombing of a school turned shelter in the Shati area of Gaza City, the health ministry in the previously Hamas-controlled territory said.
Puerto Rican stars Bad Bunny and Ricky Martin back Kamala Harris after racist Trump rally at MSG
Puerto Rican stars star Bad Bunny and Ricky Martin have thrown their sizeable support behind Kamala Harris on the same day that a MAGA comedian appearing at the disgraced ex-president's super-racist rally at Madison Square Garden called Puerto Rico a "floating island of garbage." Trump's great white grievance gathering in the bluest of blue cities with just nine days to go will have pundits scratching their heads for years to come, but the immediate fallout from the hours-long parade of racism and misogyny was easy to quantify: Bad Bunny and Ricky Martin put their 63+ million followers on blast with full-throated endorsements of Kamala Harris and utter repudiation of the MAGA cult leader's singular message of hate.

President Biden calls out Elon Musk over a published report that the Tesla CEO once worked in the US illegally
President Joe Biden slammed the world's richest man-toddler for hypocrisy on immigration after a published report that the Tesla CEO once worked illegally in the United States. The South Africa-born ketamine enthusiast denies the allegation, of course. "That wealthiest man in the world turned out to be an illegal worker here... He was supposed to be in school when he came on a student visa. He wasn't in school. He was violating the law. And he’s talking about all these illegals coming our way?" Biden said while campaigning on Saturday in Pittsburgh at a union hall. According to The Washington Post, Musk arrived in Palo Alto, California in 1995 for a graduate program at Stanford University "but never enrolled in courses, working instead on his startup." Shocking, said no one.
Tucker Carlson falsely brands Kamala Harris "Samoan-Malaysian" during bizarre, xenophobic Trump rally warmup
Oh, nothing. Just another one of Donald Trump's insufferable, pugnacious, hate-fueled enablers doing his best to other Kamala Harris and scare white people into voting against their own self-interest. Stick to testicle-tanning infomercials, Tucker. It's far more entertaining and slightly less dangerous to, ya know, the future of democracy.
