Excellent points everyone should know & share to be prepared

There are credible allegations of rape against the president, and evidence his administration has taken steps to cover up his relationship with the world's most notorious pedophile. This story is being covered more aggressively by People Magazine than the NY Times, Wash Post, or Wall St Journal.

NEW: I obtained the full Trumbull County file for Amy Acton's stepfather's 1974 charge which shows that he was indicted for incest involving his 16-year-old biological daughter in 1973./

NEW: "Donald Trump was an active participant in Jeffrey Epstein’s sexual abuse of young women during the mid-to-late 1990s," per new House Judiciary Dem report. Report has new allegation that Trump raped a 24-year-old and then promised the victim a visa & NYU admission, demanding she stay quiet.

Zelenskyy says Starlink speed restrictions remain in place, while deliveries of ballistic missile interceptors continue to be delayed. “The speed has not been restored,” the Ukrainian president said, commenting on Starlink and Starshield.

MACKLEMORE CALLS OUT ICE AND DEFENDS PALESTINE DURING COLORADO CONCERT Macklemore returned to the stage Thursday night, October 22, at a sold-out Red Rocks Amphitheatre in Morrison, Colorado

NEW: Attorney General Todd Blanche said the Department of Justice is looking into launching more California-style lawsuits to block “a number of states” from counting ballots for the midterm election. Under the Constitution, states — not the president — run elections, including counting ballots.

📩 New data show that 3.2% of all mail ballots received so far in North Carolina have been rejected. If that rejection rate holds statewide, a total of around 4K ballots, almost all likely from eligible voters, would be projected to be discarded in the state’s election: https://demdock.com/3UCnYGW

In 2020, Jared Kushner was senior advisor to the president of the United States, a full-time employee of the United States government, and was subject to numerous disclosure requirements and ethical restrictions under the Ethics in Government Act of 1978.

AOC: "What the Trump administration is doing in targeting trans people is to get everyone on board with supporting defunding their own civil rights ... understand that when they attack trans girls in sports, they're also attacking all women's ability to stand up against their abusers"

AOC: "As AI begins to encroach in our society, their goal is to take your cognition away from you. AI's goal is to take your thoughts away from you, your ability to think away from you, so that you become dependent on a machine ... reading books is active resistance"

AOC: "They call people communists, they call them this or that. But really what it is is they're afraid of a waitress in the House and a logger in the Senate"

Republicanism on display

CNN on the new CNN poll: "Trump's approval rating is now at 32%, that is a new record low ... you don't want to hit a record low two weeks out from election day"

In case facts still matter — we have abandoned Ukraine in favor of Putin Russia was never a hoax

🚨 WILLIAMSON COUNTY: Reports of Tennessee voting machines flipping Democratic/ @jerrigreen4tn.bsky.social votes to Republicans/@marshablackburn votes 🤔 (Folks in Memphis have said the same)

I’ve been released from IDF custody with a “warning,” apparently because of my public profile (I told them I wasn’t even a congressmember yet, just a nominee). But several dozen rabbis & participants harvesting olives with me are still in detention.

There you have it: "Musk and Trump discussed the Starlink decision in a call soon after the slowdown became public." Gift link ⤵️ www.wsj.com/world/ukrain...

NEWS: Trump lashes out and urges Americans to stop protesting him as early voting shatters records. Trump says Russia has been "fine" on Ukraine at the same moment a Russian drone killed a 1 year old girl preparing to play at a park. Elon Musk becomes top investigation target. And more.

NEW: A poll shows nearly six in ten Americans think Trump is "a potentially dangerous dictator whose power should be limited before he destroys American democracy." The pollster's CEO said the results indicate that Trump's winning electoral coalition is "breaking apart." https://demdock.com/4ywBOIY

I don’t care what side of the aisle you’re on, nobody should support this kind of deception. They created a fake pamphlet to spark trans outrage and sent it to every home in Texas. Then their paid shills continued the outrage on social media. Politics is broken.

It appears from court documents, statements from family members, and media reports that Amy Acton’s mother was a pedophile protector. So naturally Republicans use her in an ad against the victim and the MAGA Paid Grifter Network is pushing it because that is who they are.

Trump has a new scheme to bribe farmers in swing states with welfare checks of taxpayer money because fuel has gone up so much because of his war. But only money for them, not for anyone else in the country. No, we have to keep paying higher prices AND we pay Trump’s voters.

I'm in the West Bank this week as part of the “Protect the Harvest” coalition along with Israelis for Peace, Unarmed Civilian Protection in Palestine & Protect the Harvest.

Tech press: Look at that car fly!

In a classified briefing, a DoD official revealed to Senators how much Iranian attacks on U.S. bases have cost us. Now, I'm calling for the DoD to make that number public. Americans deserve to know how much of their money is being burned on Trump's war with Iran.

NEWS: Early voting is surging to record numbers panicking Republicans. Trump labeled a 'traitor' as he ends early warning to Ukraine. Russia strikes school and medical facility overnight. Trump ramps up election interference efforts. Bari Weiss increases CBS meddling. Subscribe to support my work:

I honestly don’t know much about El-Sayed, but this is a perfect answer from him. It’s also hilarious that Tommy used to work for Josh Hawley and was paid 250k for influencer marketing AGAINST El-Sayed. They might want to get a refund. What a spectacular backfire. The walk of shame at the end. 🤣

“We’re trying to strike the right balance between Nazi Germany and the south assaulting black protesters in the 1960s.”

Ossoff: "At a rally earlier this week in Ohio, the president egged on supports who assaulted a woman demanding the release of the Epstein files. Because if you can count on one thing from this White House, it's their tireless commitment to war, inflation, and covering up sex trafficking."

Trump & the Republicans’ “One Big Beautiful Bill” = the largest transfer of wealth from the poor to the rich in 🇺🇸 history👇🏽🤷🏼😕

“I was brutally attacked by 50 masked men… they just kept kicking me and kicking me…” Jewish @washingtonpost journalist Heidi Levine describes getting attacked and robbed by West Bank Israeli terrorists (backed by the IDF & 🇺🇸 taxpayers)

In case facts still matter…

NEWS: Trump has 'freak out' that rocks the White House. The person who caused it? Natalie Harp. Meanwhile, Musk is fuming at a new documentary released today and I speak with the director. Fox News presses Zacharia. White House disrupted Starshield

You can really feel the enthusiasm for Republican Senate candidates

Trump told Newsmax in an interview that the military’s stockpile of Tomahawk cruise missiles had not been depleted because of the war with Iran, but rather because they had been transferred to Ukraine.👇

Look at the shabby state and increasingly authoritarian trajectory of the country and ask yourself if we can endure 2 more years of a lawless Trump administration wreaking havoc with no check from Congress, then vote accordingly. This is not the time for a protest vote or purity politics.

Tonight I’m sharing popcorn with my beloved dog, sipping wine & watching an old Survivor, season 25. I feel happy despite the cruel horror show we’re living thru. How do you get happy?

It’s just seems like you ought to at least know SOMETHING about the government, civics or policy to get appointed as a US Senator from SC or a WH Press Secretary. But no, that doesn’t seem to be necessary for Republicans.

I’ve got a sneaking suspicion that this activity did not receive a thorough scrub from State Department ethics lawyers… www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

Rep Ilhan Omar became a US citizen in 2000 after arriving as a documented refugee. Melania became a US citizen in 2006 by magically winning the Einstein Visa, reserved for Oscar, Pulitzer, & Olympic winners—she is none of them. Guess which ones MAGAs are losing their minds over? Hey fascists—COPE.

An important bit of immigration law which is relevant here; there is already a waiver process — Section 212(k) of the INA — by which immigrants who obtain status through fraud that they didn't know about can avoid consequences like losing a green card. So this is *even weaker* than it already seems.

It's quite the coincidence how Trump's team finds "unspecified crimes" to investigate among Democrats, yet somehow never within their own politically convenient circles.

Sounds like it's DHS, I imagine last weeks call from Prez Dumbf*ck for Minnesotans to start a race war against Somalia's was the lead up for this.

Trump's DHS raids Rep. Omar's home because of paperwork filled out by her late father in 1995. The Trumpists are desperate. But loyalists at powerful agencies of the executive branch will obey orders. Desperation is dangerous. Now is the time for all good men to come to the aid of their country.

Volodymyr Zelenskyy has blamed Russia for breaking an “energy ceasefire” announced by Donald Trump on Sunday, but the Ukrainian president said Kyiv was still willing to observe a pause in strikes if Moscow did the same. Latest developments w/ @henryjfoy.ft.com www.ft.com/content/8636...
