They say you should never meet your heroes, but as one of millions who grew up admiring Patrick Stewart, it was a joy to get to know him and discover that his kindness and decency were just as great as his enormous, generational talent. There will not be another like him, and with the sad news of his passing, our thoughts are with his wife Sunny, his family, and his many friends. Our culture is so much richer because of Sir Patrick Stewart’s life and work.
He may be the leader of the Catholic church, but Chicago-born Pope Leo XIV is still a registered voter in Illinois and requested a mail ballot for the midterm elections.

Fox: Why are you here this morning?
Trump rally attendee: Well, in the late 70s, I was a little too young to go to South America for the Jonestown Massacre. But this is as close as I'll ever get, so that's why I'm here. There's nothing like seeing a cult right up front.
"Why Is the Media Ignoring the New Rape Allegation Against Trump?"
Legacy news outlets look the other way as Trump is hit with new Epstein-related accusations.
Read this week's Zeteo's 'Ragebait' media column, which brings receipts:

NEW:
One would think a congressional report detailing allegations from 11 women tying Trump to a pedophile financier’s sex-trafficking scheme, with 5 women accusing the president of raping them, would lead to round-the-clock media coverage.
Well, you'd be wrong.

And to the maga nasties out here who are suggesting I am not an American since I also have a Czech citizenship and therefore I voted illegally here in Florida. I got news for you. Melania trump is also a dual citizen- of US and Slovenia.
So yes-
I can vote, I have voted and will be voting democratic as long the GOP remains a party of pedophile and rapist protectors. Among other things.
When I was in MAGA, I feared a “They” who were abridging my rights and trying to indoctrinate my kids.
I came to understand after leaving MAGA that the coordinated, multi-decade demonization, dehumanization and vilification of Democrats, liberals, etc., fuel a lot of the rage and fear within MAGA. I am not defending anyone’s ignorance, but anti-Democratic propaganda and agitprop have long been effective, consistent and disciplined.
You go to a Trump rally and hear about Trump, Trump's enemies, and Trump's grievances. You go to an Obama rally and hear about democracy, healthcare, and the future of the country. The contrast is something else.
I sat across from Cassidy Hutchinson when she testified. Trump’s DOJ tried to indict her for it. But last night we found out a grand jury wouldn’t even let them bring the case.
In 2022 she told the country Trump knew his crowd was armed and wanted the metal detectors taken down. She told us he wanted to go to the Capitol with them and lunged for the steering wheel when the Secret Service said no.
Trump’s allies have called her a liar ever since. Now a DOJ lawyer has admitted to a judge that the grand jury rejected the indictment. They say a grand jury will indict a ham sandwich. This one wouldn’t touch her.
She threw away her career to tell the truth. I believed her then and I still do.
I break it all down in today’s show (link in reply).
OBAMA: The president wasn't even mad. About The Saddam Hussein comparison. That part didn't bother him. But he was very upset about The Cheesecake Factory. He took great umbrage. He said I didn't understand the work of the artisans in the White House.
They mobilized a whole of government response to that joke. Not to inflation, but to that joke.
@Acyn Obama be like: Dude, I insulted you, not a restaurant chain, and you're so damned stupid that you didn't even know it.
It must really suck to be as stupid as Trump.
Obama tonight on his Cheesecake Factory line: "They mobilized a whole of government response to that joke. Not to inflation, but to that joke. The White House even called the Secretary of the Treasury. This is the man who is in charge of the economy. The person who's supposed to be figuring out how to make your life more affordable. The guy who's supposed to be figuring out how to lower inflation. And reduce interest rates. They told him he should hold a press conference in front of the Cheesecake Factory."
Fear is contagious, but so is courage.
Cassidy Hutchinson bravely testified under oath about the January 6th insurrection.
And today’s grand jury showed true courage in rejecting Trump’s abuses of power.
Everyday citizens are standing up and holding this reckless President accountable.
NEW: Two prominent right-wing influencers were charged with unlawful voting and identity theft in Minnesota after they disguised themselves in Muslim attire and gave poll workers fake names during the state's primary.
The duo was trying to prove the state's election system allows voter fraud. https://t.co/ag3HhiK24e
