They're getting reports of the serious rain/mudslides up in those mountains, are some of the worst, totally wiping out towns and villages at this hour. A lot of the videos you're seeing on the live feeds on YouTube are from areas outside the eye area. It's going to be bad when it passes

This went well for them. Fox had to switch to audio only for a while.

This will impact 17 MILLION Americans.

Meanwhile, Republicans are refusing to extend ACA subsidies and forcing this government shutdown.

Instead of protecting healthcare, Republicans in congress are making it more expensive for hardworking families.

Asked if the 88-year-old congresswoman suffering from dementia should retire, Hakeem Jeffries replies: "I haven't had a recent conversation with delegate Eleanor Holmes Norton. Obviously she's had a legendary career. Ultimately it's going to be her decision..."

That United States spends months worsening climate change by sending carbon emitting bombs to be dropped from carbon emitting fighter jets in a genocide against Palestine, and then the climate effects are felt first and most by Black people in Jamaica and Haiti.

It's all connected. I hate it.

Anyway this was a protester case and the prosecutor's summation ended up being "even if the evidence doesn't support what we charged the defendant with, we clearly stated a prima facie case for SOMETHING." No, I'm not exaggerating.

Tired: your client turns down a plea offer and demands a trial

"We would have cheaper groceries if we let 40 million people including children starve" is a hell of take.
A post on X (formerly Twitter) from user Matt Walsh (@MattWalshBlog) dated October 28, 2025, at 8:38 AM. The post claims that the food stamp program artificially increases grocery prices because the federal government subsidizes groceries for 40 million people. It asserts that the rise in grocery costs matches the increase in food stamp recipients, arguing that working Americans are being “scammed twice”—through taxes and higher grocery prices. The post ends by stating that people are “paying twice so that morbidly obese people can buy Doritos,” calling it “infuriating.” The post has 510.9K views.

I know people reflexively respond to this stuff as it's just AI slop and garbage but everyone needs to understand what is actually going on here. It being garbage won't stop it from controlling our reality.

Seems bad there are multiple “generational catastrophic events” every year now

What we're witnessing with #Melissa is ultra rare in the history of known hurricanes in the Atlantic. This level of sustained intensity and feasting on every joule of ocean heat content without any real disruption is incredible.

Not hyperbole: Jamaica is facing a generational catastrophic event.

Trump Org’s income in the first half of 2024 was $51 million.

In the first half of 2025 it rose to $864 million.

A massive percentage came from foreigners.

It should be the biggest scandal in the history of American politics.

But few even care. www.reuters.com/investigatio...
Inside the Trump family’s global crypto cash machine
The U.S. president’s family raked in more than $800 million from sales of crypto assets in the first half of 2025 alone, a Reuters examination found, on top of potentially billions more in unrealized “on paper” gains. Much of that cash came from foreign sources as Donald Trump's sons touted their business on an international investor roadshow.

Here is my 2 point plan. Shut down all anti communists. Before they even speak.

The other promote the need for a socialist revolution in the united states which will literally solve almost all the problems there are.

The notion that its only trump is asinine.
