BREAKING: Cindy McCain, the wife of John McCain, just endorsed and announced she is raising money for Democrat Katie Hobbs for Governor in Arizona. This is huge.
Actor Richard Gere on Trump: “He’s a rogue personality who’s destroyed so much. He’s hurt so many people and he’s caused so many deaths. But it will be over. He’s an old man. He’s a damaged personality. You can see he must’ve had a horrible childhood to be the man that he is now”
CNN's Kaitlan Collins: "We'll be monitoring what the president says tonight, as we always do, but aren't taking it live, given the president has a well documented history of saying blatantly false things about elections."
The arguments we’re having today aren’t new. In fact, we were having many of the same ones more than 150 years ago during Reconstruction.
I recently sat down with Malcolm Gladwell to reflect on this pivotal time in our nation’s history, and the work that remains. Check out our conversation: https://t.co/yaGFO4MxGI
I’ve written a book about my time as President. It’s called PROMISE ME, AMERICA. It’s coming out November 17th and is available for preorder now.

OMGGGGG -- Clayton is reduced to sitting in silence instead of acknowledging Joe Biden won the 2020 election
OSSOFF: Who won the 2020 election?
CLAYTON: Uhm, you know, I'm not going to do this with you
OSSOFF: This is a job interview. You have an obligation to be honest with the committee. Who won the 2020 election?
CLAYTON: I'm not gonna get into that with you
OSSOFF: You're not being honest or forthright
CLAYTON: ...
Hunter Biden on Trump: “I would tell him to go fuck his fucking self. And please leave. This man has tried to torture me for fucking ten years. The shit that he says about my dad. His obsession with tormenting my dad. Hanging a picture of an autopen on the colonnade. Demeaning him and all the things he said about him. What the fuck kind of man would I be if I didn’t tell him to go fuck himself?”
FACTS:
Raphael Warnock (D) defeated Kelly Loeffler (R) by approximately 93,000 votes in 2020.
Jon Ossoff (D) defeated David Perdue (R) by approximately 55,000 votes in 2020
The governor and Secretary of State in Georgia were both Republicans at the time.
Three years ago I sued @PatrickByrne for lying about me. He claimed that I took a bribe and committed treason. He implied I was in some part responsible for the Hamas attack of October 7th.
His lies caused real damage and endangered my family.
On Friday I was awarded $1.7M in punitive damages by a Reagan-appointed federal judge. The court determined that everything he said about me was a complete fiction.
For those of you who don’t know Patrick Byrne, he is the former Overstock CEO who lost control of his company when it became public he was sleeping with convicted Russian agent Maria Butina. He is the man who was in the Oval Office with Michael Flynn and Sidney Powell leading up to the January 6th insurrection.
He is a clownish footnote in history. But his lies travel far and wide. He is a fraud who did the bidding of Donald Trump and Steve Bannon.
This isn’t the first defamation case brought against Byrne, and it won’t be the last. Even after losing, he is still doing it.
He continues to tell his audience he has “three dynamite voicemails” and a former federal agent whose testimony confirms his story. Byrne had three years to bring that evidence to court. He never produced it. The voicemails he did produce, the court found, “do not mention a bribe, implicate contemporaneous involvement in any illegal scheme by Plaintiff, or otherwise independently corroborate Defendant’s story.” The former federal agent Byrne relied on, John Moynihan, gave sworn testimony that contradicted him. The FBI agent Byrne claimed had backed him up denied it under oath.
Those are not my findings. Those are the findings of a federal court. And nothing prevents Byrne from releasing the voicemails he keeps promising his audience. He never has, because the court has already listened to what he produced and found they prove nothing.
Patrick will try not pay this judgment. He didn’t pay the $34,969 the court ordered six months ago either. His strategy is delay. Fire the lawyer. Skip the hearing. File nonsense with courts that have already ruled. Repeat the lie on Alex Jones while the clock runs.
He is not a whistleblower or a spy. He is a man who got played by a Russian intelligence asset, lost his company over it, and has been performing a spy fantasy on the internet ever since.
He is a coward who wouldn’t even show up in court to face me. He is hiding in Dubai, where he fled during my case to avoid being deposed, and told the court a story about a Venezuelan hit squad to explain it.
He will run from this judgment the same way he ran from my trial. Fine. Every defamatory statement is a new lawsuit. I have as much time as he has words.
Donald Trump is at war with our democracy and Georgia is ground zero.
But this is John Lewis’ Georgia. We are not intimidated. We are not moved.
Mr. President, instead of attacking our democracy, why don’t you do something about the high cost of gas, housing, and health care?
Wilson: I guarantee you there are 10 reporters in D.C. right now who know exactly what Mitch McConnell’s medical status is. Maybe more.
They’re not reporting it.
We know from people who are very clear that he’s in a certain rehab wing for acute cardiac failure, all this stuff, at the hospital. He is alive. Our source is not able to say if he’s conscious or cogent.
I don’t think the magical 20-minute conversations about Mitch McConnell—you know, “He’s perfectly fine”—are real. I think we’re going to find out all that was a lie because they want to run out the clock on the special election question in Kentucky.
If I’m Andy Beshear, brother, just declare the election. And if they want to prove that Mitch McConnell is alive and well, go do it. But that is not something I think they can prove.
When Joe Biden’s health scares started to mount up, we had 24-hour-a-day coverage. It never stopped. They were beating the White House down every single day about it.
When the July 7 debate happened in 2024, that was a clock that went off because the media drove the story. They pushed and pushed and pushed. They turned over every rock.
We don’t see that coverage about Trump. We don’t see that coverage about McConnell.
ICE has fatally shot 11 people since Donald Trump's second term began.
These are not isolated incidents. They are the predictable result of a cruel, violent system.
Abolish ICE.
Protestors in Maine are now surrounding Susan Collins’ office after ICE murdered a 26-year-old Colombian man who was authorized to work in the US and had a social security number. Collins voted to give ICE $70 billion.
