Trump will do whatever it takes to win 2020, whether or not it’s legal. Russia is targeting Joe Biden and trying to help Trump win the election, and Trump’s response? “I don’t care.” Another one of their latest strategies is to make voting harder, a time-honored American tradition. Louis DeJoy (an oddly apt name) has …

Google has deleted 2,500 YouTube accounts that were linked to Chinese disinformation campaigns. Most of the accounts just posted “spammy, non-political content,” but some did touch on politics. My speculation is that Google foresaw the other accounts eventually stepping into political disinformation after they built up a following, a common trick on other social media …

Another day, another sign of corruption from Donald Trump. A watchdog group has alleged that Trump is laundering his campaign finance money, hiding the sources of the funding. Accusations of corruption surround almost everything Trump does, even the protests of the last few months. Protestors gathered in a few state capitals around the nation, including …

A new group has joined the protests in Portland, Oregon: military veterans. A “wall” of vets appeared on the front lines, protesting the presence of federal troops. Video footage shows two Navy veterans being attacked by federal troops, as well: This is #CaptainPortland @Tazerface16 getting attacked by FEDS but from a different angle, and who …

According to an attorney arrested by the federal police in Oregon, said police did not read her her rights, constituting a major civil rights violation. And now, federal police from the DHS are headed to Chicago, in what is beginning to seem like news reports from the Civil War. Trump already sent federal police to Portland, …

In what is likely to be the “this backfired hugely” event of the week, Twitter has banned 7,000 accounts related to the QAnon conspiracy theory, all of whom have violated the site’s policy on harassment. Twitter will also limit the spread of QAnon-related misinformation, which is expected to impact another 150,000 users. Unfortunately, QAnon conspiracists …

The ACLU has sued the Trump administration over the presence of federal police in Portland, Oregon. The organization believes that its legal action is “a fight to save our democracy.” The mayor of Portland has also called on Trump to withdraw his police from the city. President Trump has sent federal police to Portland, in …

According to a recent report out of Australia, a shocking number of global companies are exploiting the Uighur forced labor camps set up by the Chinese government. Here are just some of those companies: Abercrombie & Fitch, Amazon, GAP, H&M, Nike, Jack & Jones, Sharp, Siemens, Skechers, ASUS, Apple, Samsung, Huawei, BMW, Volkswagen, Sony, Polo …

In a sign of the strangeness of the political times, Joe Biden has a 5-point lead over Trump, polling at 46% to Trump’s 41%. Some 14% are undecided. Trump’s bumbling leadership of the COVID crisis is the primary cause of his slipping numbers. In fact, in 500 counties with spiking COVID numbers, Trump’s approval rating is …

New polls show that Donald Trump’s approval rating is plummeting. Some 67% of Americans disapprove of Trump’s COVID response. Interestingly, Trump’s support among Republicans is dropping––78% of Republicans approve of his COVID handling, down from 90% a month ago. Trump’s base, white Americans without a college degree, are split: 50% disapprove and 49% approve. Americans …

Donald Trump’s much-hyped return rally in Tulsa was, in short, a big ol’ dud. The venue could hold nearly 20,000 people, but only about 6,00 showed up. Trump was allegedly furious about the poor turnout. Trump’s campaign tried to spin the poor attendance, but even Fox News didn’t buy it. The mayor of Atlanta called the event an …
