The MAGA cult leader, in the final moments of his final rally in his final presidential campaign, closed with a truly riveting message of unity and optimi... just kidding. He called Nancy Pelosi an "evil, sick, crazy bitch." May our long, national nightmare finally end today.

Harris and Trump make their closing arguments on the last night of the campaign
Vice President Harris and the MAGA cult leader made their closing arguments at simultaneous rallies last night. One focused on a hopeful future and was marked by unbridled joy and optimism about what tomorrow might bring. The other was an hours-long temper tantrum, where insults and profanities were hurled at political opponents, military generals, former administration officials, and one-time allies. See if you can guess which was which.

New poll shows VP Harris and Trump NECK AND NECK in crucial swing state
WisDems: A new Emerson College poll shows presumptive Democratic nominee Kamala Harris and would-be-dictator Trump tied at 47% in the absolutely-must-win swing state of Wisconsin. The road to the White House and a Senate majority runs through Wisconsin, and Wisconsin Democrats are building a state-wide get-out-the-vote grassroots organizing machine to knock on every door and visit every county for VP Harris. But they can't do it alone. Will you chip in to help the best state party in the country save our democracy from Trump and his radical Project 2025 cronies?
Tucker Carlson blames abortion for increase in hurricanes
If you thought Tucker Carlson couldn't get any weirder after claiming he was “physically mauled” by a demon that left claw marks on his body, guess again. The former Fox News-turned-freelance blowhard-for-hire is now — checks notes — blaming abortions for the increase in hurricanes. During an appearance on white nationalist, ex-con Steve Bannon's The War Room podcast, Carlson decreed that anyone who thinks reproductive rights are a good thing is “evil” and practicing child sacrifice. “I'm sure I'll be attacked for saying this, but I really believe it. People are like, oh, well, we had another hurricane, must be global warming. No, it’s probably abortion, actually. Just being honest.” Honest, uh huh. Hey, Tucker. Pat Robertson called from beyond the grave. He wants his stupid, hateful ideology back.

Still wrecked from past Israeli raids, hospitals in northern Gaza come under attack again
A new Israeli offensive is deliberately targeting three hospitals in Northern Gaza — the Kamal Adwan, al-Awda, and Indonesian hospitals — which still have not recovered from the damage done during the first attacks against them several months ago. An AP investigation has discovered that while Israel claims that the hospitals are being used by Hamas as command centers, they have offered little to no evidence proving these allegations while committing horrific crimes against humanity. Survivors and hospital administrators at al-Awda recounted at least four occasions when Israeli drones or snipers killed or badly wounded Palestinians trying to enter. Two women about to give birth were shot and bled to death in the street, staff said. Mohammed Salha, the hospital's administrator, watched gunfire kill his cousin, Souma, and her 6-year-old son as she brought the boy for treatment of wounds. In a report last month, a UN investigation commission determined that “Israel has implemented a concerted policy to destroy the healthcare system of Gaza.” It described Israeli actions at hospitals as “collective punishment against the Palestinians in Gaza.”
Boeing’s strike ends after machinists approve new labor contract with 38% wage increases
In a huge win for organized labor, Boeing machinists approved a new labor deal Monday, ending a more than seven-week strike that halted most of the aircraft production at the company that was already struggling with mounting losses. Machinists voted 59% in favor of the new contract, which includes 38% wage increases over four years and other improvements. The approval is also a relief for Boeing’s new CEO Kelly Ortberg, who took the top job in August to steer the company through its safety and manufacturing crises. Would you look at that? A win-win. More where that came from, please.

Trump seethes over Julia Roberts' campaign ad for Kamala
The 78-year-old MAGA cult leader can't seem to get over Julia Roberts' recent endorsement of the vice president, or the ad she cut for Kamala encouraging women to think for themselves. “In the one place in America where women still have a right to choose, you can vote any way you want and no one will ever know,” Roberts says in the ad. “She's going to look back on that and she’s going to cringe,” Trump predicted. “I mean, it doesn't say much for her relationship... Can you imagine a wife not telling a husband who she’s voting for? Did you ever hear anything like that? Even if you had a horrible — if you had a bad relationship, you're gonna tell your husband.” Uh, yes. We can imagine that very scenario. Over and over, in fact. The ad that so clearly got under Trump’s skin ends with Roberts telling women, “Remember, what happens in the booth, stays in the booth. Vote Harris-Walz.” Let's do this, people!
Nervous lawmaker has MAGA disguise in case of election violence
Fear surrounding potential political violence following the 2024 presidential election has some lawmakers preparing for the worst. Some Democrats in Congress even fear a second attack on the Capitol on Jan. 6 by Donald Trump’s supporters. One lawmaker told NOTUS he assembled an “insurrectionist getaway costume,” including tactical pants, tactical boots, and a secret key accessory. “I've really been trying to impress upon my staff that I'm not joking,” the member of Congress said. “This is very serious.” Other Democratic staffers reportedly plan on staying home on Jan. 6, the day Congress certifies the election. “Insurrect me once, shame on you. Twice? No thanks,” a senior staffer told the outlet. Thanks, MAGA.
Springfield, Ohio sheriff's lieutenant, blaming sleep medication, apologizes for post claiming he "won’t help Democrats"
It's okay, folks. When Lt. John Rodgers, a 20-year veteran of the sheriff’s office in Clark County redefined his role as a peace officer on Facebook and proclaimed he would refuse to help roughly half of the people he serves, it wasn't his own hate talking. It was the ambien. In one rather direct post Rodgers wrote, “I am sorry. If you support the Democrat Party I will not help you." Another said: “The problem is that I know which of you supports the Democratic Party and I will not help you survive the end of days.” Rodgers was reprimanded, but not removed from the force. For the good people of Springfield, let's hope he doesn't need anymore sleep aid in the future. Who knows what other crazy ideas those little pills might give him!
Elon Musk’s $1 million-a-day voter sweepstakes can proceed, a Pennsylvania judge says
The ketamine enthusiast's incredibly stupid, super expensive, and nakedly political electioneering scheme for the MAGA cult leader can proceed, Pennsylvania Common Pleas Court Judge Angelo Foglietta ruled on Monday. Musk's lawyers successfully argued that the winners are paid spokespeople and not chosen by chance, despite the billionaire alt-right fanboy's multiple public claims stating otherwise. District Attorney Larry Krasner, a Democrat, had called the process a scam “designed to actually influence a national election” and asked that it be shut down. Musk had previously posted on nüTwitter that anyone signing the petition had “a daily chance of winning $1M!” which turned out to be false. Shocking. We know.
