Biden sternly rebukes Trump
Every election is a battle for the soul of America. Trump has painted a dystopian picture of our nation, portraying it as a hellscape of crime and a nation of losers. That may resonate with some folks, but the man who defeated Trump in the 2020 election isn’t buying any of it, nor hopping on [[...]

Vance claims there was a “peaceful transfer of power” in 2021
J. D. Vance, Trump’s 2024 running mate, is a prolific liar. He falsely accused Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, of stealing and eating pets, which has caused real harm to innocent people (see story here); then he tried to justify this lie as “telling stories” to get media a[...]

Was there a third assassination attempt?
That’s what Riverside County, California, Sheriff Chad Bianco (photo, left; bio here) and a slew of rightwing media and propaganda outlets called it. But Vem Miller, the Las Vegas man arrested near a Trump rally on Saturday, October 12, 2024, for having a fake license plate and a pile of guns [...]
J. D. Vance’s word games
Sen. J. D. Vance (R-OH), depicted at left, is a Yale-educated lawyer and published writer who’s very good at manipulating the English language to make it look like he’s not lying when he is. Campaigning for Trump in Pennsylvania on Saturday, October 12, 2024, Vance called Biden’s inaug[...]
Vance defends Trump’s FEMA lies

When photos are deceptive
Those people wearing “Auto Workers for Trump” t-shirts in the photo below? They’re Trump supporters who attended a Detroit campaign rally on Tuesday, October 8, 2024, where J.D. Vance was the featured speaker. They were “stationed in a featured spot” behind Vance as he [...]
Trump sees Democrats in the mirror
When Trump looks into a mirror, he often sees Democrats. Four weeks before the 2024 election, he’s gone on a lying binge. His lies aren’t a bit creative; they’re his own biography. After one devastating hurricane, with another on the way, he’s falsely claiming Biden is divert[...]
Is Tim Walz a liar?
J. D. Vance (image at left), Trump’s 2024 running mate, is a prodigious liar. The most egregious of Vance’s lies is “telling stories” about Haitian immigrants that are untrue, racist, and caused bomb threats and school closures. But Vance also drastically flip-flopped on Trum[...]
GOP blowhard absurdly blames Democrats for political violence
It’s a talking point in a campaign season, and an empty one. Most of the political violence is coming from Republicans: The Jan. 6 Capitol insurrection, threats against judges and election workers, talk of “civil war,” and the attempts to assassinate Trump. (Both would-be assassins[...]
