Everyone should listen to this.

It’s easy to blame Rogan for understanding the situation far too late, but the important thing is that he’s using his platform-with his millions of listeners-to talk about it now.

This one show will reach more normal GOP folks than we ever could.

Christopher Webb @cwebbonline.com · 13h

The con worked, until it didn’t?

ROGAN: “I really thought they were just going to go after the criminals… I really thought there was enough gang members.”

ME: He still doesn’t get it. That’s what Trump wanted everyone to believe. They’re not even trying to go after “the criminals”.

He probably had to think all night to come up with that one. 🙄🙄🙄

Also, the Republicans will now have to go to their districts and actually work, or at least make an effort to look like they are. 😂😂😂 They probably won't like that.

Mike Johnson tries to reframe his move to keep the House out to avoid a vote on the Epstein files as a "responsible decision" so Republicans can "work" in their districts

Dismantling the VRA is their plan. An all out attack on black/brown representation that would give Republicans a hammer-lock on power.

A potentially 20-plus house seat shift. Pay attention.

Me too 🥺 I can't believe they would try this nonsense

Blocking the I-5 would be devastating

And the environmental (& emotional) toll of firing missiles onto the base? I mean, margin of error? What about birds & wildlife (& people, especially veterans) who could be beyond frightened?

The Trump admin is apparently finalizing plans for two days of events under the pretext of the 250th anniversary of the Marines. Sources close to MTN describe the closure as part of a “vanity parade” that may involve Navy warships shooting live missiles into Camp Pendleton as a “show of force.”

Sources tell MeidasTouch the White House will shut down portions of the I-5 for Vice President JD Vance’s Marine Corps spectacle during No Kings Protests, triggering chaos, gridlock, and outrage as troops go unpaid during the shutdown.

In unanimous decision, Australia’s highest court is not having Candace Owens. They're denying her a visa, claiming she failed a “character test” according to that nation’s standards.

More of this, please.

My Native American partner thinks that b/c he’s a natural born citizen that he’s immune. I say the only protection he really has is that I will do my best to use my middle-aged lady whiteness & shame-on-you mom voice to do what I can. (Not sure if will do any good, but getting him a passport)

If you’re tired of seeing your tax dollars go to Argentina while Trump tariffs kill your local businesses and make everything more expensive

…or worried you’ll get snatched off the streets by ICE because you’re not the “right” skin color, despite being here legally

I hate to say this, and most of you probably already know, but be prepared for mysterious bad actors to show up to No Kings protests and start trouble. The right needs to make the protestors look bad, so they will send fake Antifas to start violence and destroy things. It's their standard playbook.

Qatar gave Trump a $400M jet. Trump gave them a military facility on US soil.

The UAE bought $2B of Trump's stablecoin. Trump gave them access to rare AI chips.

Saudi Arabia invested $2B in Kushner's firm. Trump sold them $142B in arms.

If this isn't corruption, what is?

“The Defense Department has confiscated the badges of the Pentagon reporters from virtually every major media organization in America,” the Pentagon Press Association said

Oct. 15, 2025
PENTAGON PRESS ASSOCIATION
STATEMENT
Today, the Defense Department confiscated the badges of the Pentagon reporters from virtually every major media organization in America. It did this because reporters would not sign onto a new media policy over its implicit threat of criminalizing national security reporting and exposing those who sign it to potential prosecution.
The Pentagon Press Association's members are still committed to reporting on the U.S. military. But make no mistake, today, Oct. 15, 2025 is a dark day for press freedom that raises concerns about a weakening U.S. commitment to transparency in governance, to public accountability at the Pentagon and to free speech for all.

Random Wednesday thoughts...

I am still pissed at Merrick Garland

The next Democratic POTUS better bulldoze the new WH Ballroom if it gets built

Why. Is. He. Still. Here?😡

I'm disgusted that the word "Antifa" will probably end up in History books

ICE is breaking my heart & leaving me empty
