A private prison company offered Minnesota an empty prison for 75 million dollars. The state said no. Then Trump’s administration paid the same company almost 500 million for it.

The prison has sat empty in Appleton, Minnesota since 2010. Last year CoreCivic emailed the state and offered to sell it for 75 million, upgrades included. Minnesota passed. Fifteen months later, Homeland Security bought it for an ICE detention center at 495.6 million.

How could this be? You guessed it. CoreCivic gave half a million dollars to Trump’s inaugural committee. And it still gets paid about 75 million a year to run the place.

Republicans love talking about fraud in Minnesota. JD Vance says his task force is all over it. So where are they on this one? I break it all down in today’s show (link in reply).

I signed onto this amicus brief in the 9th circuit to argue that there is no constitutional role for the executive branch to remove voters from the rolls. That’s the job of the state.

The name "Dan Sullivan" showing up twice on the Alaska ballot doesn't bother me.

The name "Donald Trump" appearing in the Epstein files THOUSANDS of times does.

🥲You need to hear this. It's about the man Pete Hegseth just fired, Lieutenant General Brett Sylvia. A story of appreciation told by one of his own soldiers.

🚨🇺🇸Trust me, he deserves this minute of your time. What's happening isn't just difficult at times, it's heartbreaking.

FUN FACT: My Wife and daughter BOTH voted for their first time as U.S. citizens, just got their confirmation emails today that their votes were counted, and my daughter got THREE OF HER FRIENDS to vote.

BOOM!💪

My daughter works full time here in Texas. Let me run her numbers.

State minimum wage is $7.25. She's making $16.

Forty hours a week equals $640 weekly.

That’s roughly $2,700 a month before taxes.

Texas has no state income tax—the thing they sell you on. So after federal and FICA she takes home roughly $2,300.

Average one-bedroom in our city runs about $1,550.

That’s 67% of her entire paycheck gone to rent before she eats a single meal.

Leaves her around $750 a month for:

- groceries
- gas
- car insurance
- health insurance
- phone
- emergencies
- savings

Car insurance alone eats a huge chunk of that in this state.

She works 40 hours a week and cannot save a dollar. Not because she's careless because there's nothing left to be careless with.

I spent thirty years paying off a house here. She's doing the same job I did at her age and she can't afford a basic apartment.

That's not a discipline problem. That's not avocado toast.

The floor moved and nobody lowered the ceiling.

Working full time should cover a roof. In Texas it barely covers the rent on one.

Michael Dell: A 70% tax rate? "Name a country where that worked. Ever."

The United States, from 1936 to 1980.
Dumbass.🤦🏻‍♀️

Tax rates rose to 79% in 1936, rose up to 94% during WWII, fell to 82% in 1949, hovered at 91% from '51 to 63, and then stayed at 70% or above until 1980.

These rates drove us out of the depression and into powerhouse economies.

It was not until Reagan crashed the rates into the 30% range that we started accumulating massive debt and income inequality.

Facts matter.
And the facts show:
Republicans are not good for the economy.

Vote blue on Tuesday, November 3rd!🌊

[Moiz Ali @moizali]

This is the fucking greatest PAC ad I've ever seen.

[S.E. Cupp @secupp]

Just talked to an Ohio voter who said she didn’t care about the Vivek ad. Voting for this loser, creep, chud anyway, because she didn’t like Acton’s Covid response. I’ve also heard from lots of Paxton voters who are happy to hold their nose to keep the state red. Don’t count on anti-Trump turnout. GO VOTE.

[Brad @BraddrofliT]

Gender reassignment surgery cost upwards to $100,000 yet these brainwashed MAGAs thinks the science teacher is doing it for free between PE and math class. It’s literally impossible to overstate how fucking ill-informed these people are.

@GuntherEagleman Manufacturing jobs in Michigan have fallen by 3.2% since passing the bill and are down by nearly 30,000 since 2024.

For those of you who say the MAGA Boomers just don't get it, this man begs to differ.

Well done, sir.

We were ALL had.

[Alex Cole @acnewsitics]

MAGA says Ilhan Omar isn't using her real name.

Melania Trump was born Melanija Knavs.

Ted Cruz was born Rafael Edward Cruz.

JD Vance was born James Donald Bowman.

Nikki Haley was born Nimarata Nikki Randhawa.

Mike Johnson's real first name is James.

Rand Paul is Randal Paul.

Newt Gingrich was born Newton Leroy McPherson.

But suddenly MAGA wants a congressional investigation into names?
