Breaking news: Cuyahoga County is reporting a 249% increase in first-day early voters over the 2022 Midterms! 🗳️ GO CLEVELAND! YOU GOT THIS!

"Truly the seventh level of hell." That's what Republican Sen. Bernie Moreno said about what his granddaughter is going through with Max Miller. 🧸

Over the summer, Senator Bernie Moreno told reporters Miller kept his toddler granddaughter's blue bunny, the one she sleeps with, for about 48 hours. That's his voice you're hearing. Miller says he didn't hold it hostage. Then Mother Jones published emails going back to March 2025, from Miller's ex-wife, her lawyer, and Moreno himself, asking him to give the bunny back.

The bunny is the smallest part of it. In court filings, his ex-wife, Emily Moreno, accuses him of throwing scalding water on her and pointing a gun at her head. Miller strongly denies all of it. Moreno, his own former father-in-law, says he's unfit to hold office and has called on him to resign.

So where's Ohio Republican Party? Silent, while one of its own senators calls one of its own congressmen unfit for office.

This ad is from Brian Poindexter for Congress, who's running against Miller in November. The voice is Sen. Moreno's own, and every quote on screen comes from national news coverage: Mother Jones, CNN, HuffPost, The Christian Science Monitor, and The Atlantic.

Early voting in Ohio is open now through November 1st. 🗳️

HEY, FIRST CLASS LOSER, WELCOME BACK TO YOUNGSTOWN!

Trump's rolling into the Covelli Centre this Monday, October 12, for a "midterm rally," with Senator Jon Husted expected to tag along again.

Last time Trump came to Youngstown, in 2017, he told the crowd the jobs were all coming back. "Don't move. Don't sell your house." Less than two years later, GM shut down Lordstown. The Valley remembers.

His approval is underwater by more than 20 points, and Republicans who can read a poll are keeping their distance. Husted keeps showing up anyway. We say bring it on. It only helps build a massive blue wave. 🌊

Doors at 2:30, program at 4:30, and Trump speaks at 6. Protesters should start gathering around 2:00 PM.

It's Indigenous Peoples' Day (Columbus Day), so a lot of folks have the day off. If that's you, bring a sign and bring a friend. Bring water, stay on the sidewalk, and expect the Secret Service to keep you at a distance. So far, nobody's been pushed far back. Downtown parking will be tight, so get there early, don't block anyone's driveway, and keep an eye on the City of Youngstown's website for parking advisories. First time protesting? ACLU of Ohio has a know-your-rights guide worth reading before you go.

Peaceful protesters only. If you're coming to start trouble, stay home.

Fun fact: a "free" rally ticket comes with a lifetime subscription to fundraising texts from Trump's committee, the RNC, and nearly every state GOP. That's what burner emails and free VoIP numbers are for. 😂

Trump isn't on the ballot in November, but Trumpism sure is. Early voting in Ohio is open now through November 1st. Vote early and in person if you can, and bring a friend or family member. The sooner the better, because anything can happen: illness, car trouble, a family emergency, or this administration pulling a fast one on DEMOCRACY.

The Emperor Has No Clothes, and honestly, it's not a good look. 🤢

Europe unveiled a 2.5-meter golden statue of Trump, completely naked, sitting on a man's back. We took a long look so you don't have to.

Rating: maybe a 2. A 2 on a good day, with the lights off. Several zip codes over.

Low energy. Lot of sagging. Frankly, disgusting. Somebody get this guy to a treadmill, or at least a robe. Fat pig, dog, slob, the whole thing. We're not saying it, people are saying it. Many people.

He calls women "piggy" and "horseface" and rates them out of 10 on live radio. So here's the same treatment, Donald: we've seen the gold version, and it's still a hard pass.

Quiet, piggy. 🐷

BREAKING NEWS: ANDREW TATE, BARRON TRUMP'S MENTOR, ACCUSED OF POSSESSION OF ANIMAL P**N, INCLUDING HUMANS WITH HORSES AND EELS

10/06/2026

"I'm allowed to go in, because I'm the owner of the pageant and therefore I'm inspecting it." Donald Trump said that on The Howard Stern Show in 2005. 🎥

Trump owned the Miss Universe, Miss USA, and Miss Teen USA pageants for almost 20 years. On Stern, he bragged about walking backstage while contestants were getting dressed.

The women who competed in his pageants say he did exactly that.

1997 Miss Teen USA: Mariah Billado and Victoria Hughes went on the record, and three other contestants backed them anonymously. Hughes said the youngest girl in the room was 15. Billado said when she told co-host Ivanka Trump about it, Ivanka answered: "Yeah, he does that."

2000 Miss USA: Bridget Sullivan.
2001 Miss USA: Tasha Dixon.

Trump denies it, but he originally told the world himself, on tape, and laughed about it.

Six Republicans or their friends made the news this week. Not one of them for anything good. 🚩 Swipe ➡️

Paolo Zampolli Personal, Trump's special envoy and the man who says he introduced Donald to Melania, is accused in a federal lawsuit of drugging and ra**ng a woman at his Manhattan townhouse. He denies it.



Andrew Tate, the "manosphere" hero of MAGA world, is jailed in Miami fighting extradition to the UK on dozens of charges, including r**e, trafficking, and indecent images of a child. The UK's full extradition file was filed in Miami federal court this week. He denies everything.

Graphic: Adam Mockler

Mike Caruso, the DeSantis-appointed Palm Beach clerk arrested in August on child molestation charges involving a young relative, was endorsed in 's voter guide anyway. His name was still up this morning. It only came down after the outcry, including his own governor and senator calling it disgusting. You don't get credit for doing the right thing only after you got caught.

Alabama state Rep. Brett Easterbrook was arrested Friday in a sting on human trafficking and prostitution charges.

Ohio state Rep. Gary Click, who built his career on "protecting children," was investigated by Fremont police last fall over an anonymous child abuse report, newly revealed this week. The alleged victim denied it and the case was closed, but Click's answers when The Rooster asked about the family haven't matched what he told police.

Dennis Hastert, the longest-serving Republican Speaker in history, died at 84. A federal judge called him "a serial child molester." Plenty of headlines just called him "former speaker."

The party of "family values" keeps protecting the wrong people. Not on our watch.

Most guys actually AREN'T okay with it. They just think they're the only ones. 🤐

According to the research, men overestimate how much other men are fine with disrespecting women, and underestimate how much their friends actually care about consent. So the guy who's uncomfortable with the "joke" stays quiet, because he assumes everyone else is laughing.

What a man thinks his friends believe matters more than what he believes himself. One study of college men found that perceived peer attitudes, not personal ones, predicted whether a guy would step in.

That's why women can't fix this on their own. Men listen to men. The moment one guy says "not cool," everyone else in the room learns they weren't alone.

So stop saying "not all men." Try "not on my watch."

Call out the creepy joke. Check on her when your buddy won't take the hint. Don't laugh along. You'll be surprised how many guys were waiting for someone to go first.

Be the one who speaks up. 🟢

Trump was 60. Nobody asked about 12-year-olds. He brought them up himself. 🤢

October 2006, The Howard Stern Show. Stern asks if he could be "banging 24-year-olds." Trump: "Oh, absolutely!" Then Robin Quivers asks if he has an age limit, and Trump says he doesn't want to be like Congressman Foley, "with, you know, 12-year-olds."

Mark Foley had just resigned over sexual messages to congressional pages. They were 16 and 17. The 12 came from Trump.

Plenty of decent men have an age limit. Ask one and you might hear the old rule, "half my age plus seven." At 60, that's 37. Not 24, and nowhere near a punchline about 12-year-olds.

And to be clear, we'd say the same about anyone, in any party. A 60-year-old joking about dating women young enough to be his grandkids is gross no matter who's doing it.

Trump isn't on the ballot this November, but Trumpism sure is. Ohio, early voting starts TODAY. 🗳️

Every responsible gun owner already understands "not all men." They just don't know it yet. 🔫

One of our followers dropped this comment on one of our posts, and it stopped us cold: "Treat all guns as loaded until you have verified they are clear."

Nobody thinks every gun is loaded, but you treat them that way because you can't tell by looking, and one mistake can kill you. That's all women are doing. They don't think every man is dangerous. They just don't care to play Russian roulette.

So next time you feel the urge to type "not all men," try something better: "Not on my watch." Call out the guy making the creepy joke. Walk your coworker to her car. Believe her the first time. National Org. for Women has been saying it for decades.

Thanks to the follower who handed us the perfect analogy. 🙏
