One thing I've been thinking abt for some days (bc I've been harping on this tariff case from the start): the EU stalled negotiations w/Trump, IMO bc they were waiting on SCOTUS.

China affirmatively did not. The week before the hearing they brought Trump to his knees, and made him bow to Xi.

Look at that pic and tell me with a straight face the guy who throws a party like that is really worried about drug trafficking? He’s worried about not getting a cut from the right cartel. I f’n guarantee you there was a blow at Mar a Lago on Halloween. Guaran-f*cking-tee you.

Held the door for an older man with a cane struggling up the stairs into the firehouse that is my polling station in NYS, ‘I said you’re making an effort, that’s how it works…’ He looked at me (long hair, mala beads)’ and said, ‘yes, but I’m about to cancel out your vote!’ 😂

Dear Military, if Trump orders you to attack NYC tonite please don’t, LOL. Not sure what an all caps ‘and so it begins’ means but fellow Americans are not the enemy. Trump is a threat to democracy & you won’t be proud of the BS he is pulling in the end, nor will history be kind.

Trump is about to get an electoral ass kicking tonite and he knows it. Trump goes to his private golf club in Virginia all the time but couldn’t bother with an in-person appearance for the dung heap they call a political party. Enjoy.

Brilliant piece as always, please read it - no one understands this foul, scheming beast more deeply than Noel. Trump is a wrecking ball - it's why his obscene destruction of the people's East Wing to build himself a gilded, oligarch-funded grifting annex was the perfect metaphor for his presidency
“As I have often said, Trump is hired to break things, it is his apex skill; besides predation, which is not an attribute but a malignant character defect for which he has spent a lifetime evading any real accountability. I hope that changes soon.” open.substack.com/pub/noelcasl...
'Mr. Bad Example'
As we approach the one year anniversary of Trump’s awful and ignoble re-election it feels as our country has been left out in the rain to rust and rot.

For all MAGAts missing out on EBTs right now, even though your kids may go hungry tonight, it's okay because no transwoman is playing mixed pickleball at a Boise State intramural right now.

Nigeria says there is no Christian genocide taking place in its country. An AI video from Truth Social user @MAGAcrusades1488 shows a bloodbath of epic proportions. For busy presidents of the United States considering a military invasion, it can be hard to know who to trust.

It's getting harder to think of things that antisemites allege Jews do that aren't also things that Elon Musk and his tech bro friends actually do.

NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte:

Russia's unprovoked war against Ukraine is the most obvious example of the threat. But the danger posed by Russia will not end when this war does. For the foreseeable future, Russia will remain a destabilizing force in Europe and the world.
Way to step up, US Gov't! 😂
Thank you Europe!
NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte:

Until recently, Russia was producing more ammunition than all NATO Allies put together. But not anymore.

Across the Alliance, we are now opening dozens of new production lines and expanding existing ones. We are making more than we have done in decades.

Once upon a time, American soldiers handed out food to Germans because *they* had followed a fascist madman into national ruin.

How times change.
NEW: The US Army website for its bases in Bavaria, Germany told its soldiers and employees that it might need to obtain free food from the German government during the US government shutdown.

The Army later altered publication to remove a list of food banks, but we have the original text here:
US Army Tells Soldiers to Go to German Food Bank, Then Deletes It
The initial 'Shutdown Guidance' for the US Army Garrison Bavaria included instructions to go to German food banks.
