With two weeks until Election Day, we are at the intersection of Donald Trump's plan to make it harder for you to vote and easier for him to cheat. When Republicans lose the House and Senate Trump will escalate the attacks. But he will fail and we will win.

Texas was built by hope. By people who had no business believing — but believed anyway. To every Texan who’s ever wondered if anyone in power is paying attention: We are taking our state back. Because a little bit of hope is a dangerous thing.

Those who affiliate themselves with trump and that mentality will do and say anything. Here's a typical example.

Despicable that trump has turned his back on Ukraine and sided with putin. What a fkd up country we are displaying ourselves to be. Shameful!

if this was decision was really made over the ability to import a little diesel fuel from Russia in a vain attempt to control inflation costs before the midterm, it will say a whole lot about the specific failure mode this country is exhibiting

I have never in history read of a greater collection of gutless self-serving cowards, than the Republican Senate and House. Can any legitimate objective historians out there offer an example of greater cowardly historical scum? #Congress #gop #maga #Iran #Israel

Some people are utterly removed from reality and full of bs. Here is an example, folks.

Hassett on AI: "The reason why we've got so much gain & things are going so well & everything is working great despite the worst nightmarish fears we've been hearing about is that responsible people in all corners of the country have been working together to keep us safe, & they've done that well"

We continue to lose and I become more and more cynical. Ugh!

“60 Minutes” — once a fearless national treasure — has been largely gutted. Over a year ago, I appeared on “60 Minutes” because I trusted the leaders of CBS to report the news with honesty and bravery. That will be my last appearance on the show. www.democracydocket.com/opinion/my-o...

The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. Big Tech buys off Congress. No action on AI safety. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.

As fear grows Trump will sow chaos during midterm elections, federal law PROHIBITS military personnel or “armed” agents from being “at any place where a general or special election is held." YET, DHS says ICE WILL SHOW UP AT POLLS "if there's a threat or to serve a warrant." #politics

There is a reason for inspections; proactively dealing with problems is massively cheaper rather than reacting to huge outbreaks after the fact. But, short-sighted people would just say "look at all the money being wasted doing these inspections!" Penny-pinching, or "Penny wise, pound foolish."

Target paid its CEO $21.8M last year — 794x the median Target worker's pay of $27,506. Target has also spent $13.9B on stock buybacks since 2019, while remaining among the largest employers of Medicaid and SNAP recipients in America. This is what I mean by a rigged economy.

We identified the top 100 sprayers of the controversial weedkiller Roundup in California—a state that produces more than three-quarters of the nation’s fruits and nuts and nearly half of its vegetables. Check out our new searchable database to find out who’s at the top of the list. bit.ly/3SqKXDZ

The most dangerous person is the moron who thinks he knows everything with the ability to wreck the fortunes of a country and harm its people. We’ve had many bad presidents, but there was just nobody close to this bad.
