CBS deleted this post and reposted it admitting that their original one was misleading. And the misleading post from CBS was intentionally misleading, not an innocent mistake. CBS continues to lose credibility.

The lessons from Brazil and Serbia? Don't concede one inch of ground to the far right. Don't appease. Don't triangulate. Don't grovel. Don't say they have "legitimate concerns". Mobilise your base, and fight them with all the democratic means at your disposal.

🚨BREAKING: We have moved for a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction enjoining Trump from continuing to unconstitutionally impose themselves upon election administration procedures that the Constitution and federal law assign to the States.

No. The charges are already time barred. Under the relevant statute of limitations, an indictment must be filed within 10 years of the offense, which allegedly occurred on October 5, 2016. This DOJ is out of control.

Allison Gill@muellershewrote.com

I believe that DOJ has 30 days to get a grand jury indictment after charging on information unless Comey waived his right to a grand jury indictment, which I kind of doubt. That 30 days would expire 11/4. Is that correct @joycewhitevance.bsky.social @barbmcquade.bsky.social @rparloff.bsky.social ?

Vivek Ramaswamy’s ad targeting Amy Acton’s childhood sexual abuse backfired. It prompted Ohio’s largest newspaper, The Plain Dealer, to reverse its policy on political endorsements and endorse Acton for governor.

The editorial board said using a survivor’s abuse against them crosses a line that should matter to every Ohioan, regardless of party. “We are better than this. We have a responsibility to show it.”

Pretty lame to use a loathsome hag who abused and lost her child as a character witness against that child, once again trying to harm her daughter after she grew up to be a lovely accomplished person. What the hell?

This is a rare moment of bipartisanship. And a reliable indication that Darline Graham is a horrible, inexperienced nepo-candidate.

At least 18 early voting centers in rural Alaska have not opened as of Friday, state Sen. Bill Wielechowski says. The commonality? All the affected areas have at least a 60% Alaska Native population — with nearly a dozen having Alaska Native populations upwards of 90%: https://demdock.com/4yTW5Ze

The hours. The uncomfortable conversations. The doubts. The late nights. The skipped bedtimes & the time away from family. In Serbia, students organized for nearly two years. They walked town to town, knocked doors, & had real conversations with their neighbors. They won. Thread 2/5🧵

In Brazil, Lula was behind after the first round. People refused to give up, & they won. “The new dawn blooms as we free it. For there is only light if we are brave enough to see it, if only we're brave enough to be it.” ~ Amanda Gorman ~ Thread 3/5🧵

In Hungary, voters ended 16 years of Orbán in April. Their new leader was once one of Orbán's own. But it's only possible if we all work together. If every one of us steps up, gets uncomfortable, & steps outside our comfort zone. Thread 4/5🧵

If we start having the hard conversations, knocking doors... If we step outside our party lines. That's how they did it. That's how we do it too. I know so many of you are tired. I am too... Students in Belgrade are dancing in the streets because they didn't give up on each other. Thread 5/5🧵

A friendly reminder to celebrate the wins when you can. 👏

Lula winning is great for the planet, great for Brazil, and great for people who aren't revanchist assholes everywhere in the world, but let's not forget that it's also going to make some of the worst people on Earth extremely sad and mad. We should enjoy that, as a little treat.

Anna Paulina Luna’s political playbook? Corruption, broken promises, and putting herself first. Floridians are over it. They deserve a leader who’ll actually fight to bring costs down and put them first. That’s Leela Gray.

Another stunning defeat for a Trump-aligned right-wing leader in Europe. Serbian students voted out their authoritarian leadership after months of protests against corruption, taking their fight from the streets to the ballot box and turning people power into political power.

Jeffrey Sterling, ex CIA: The military is punishing Maj Watson while claiming to follow the very rules that forbid it. Art. 13 of the UCMJ says no one being held for trial may be punished, and that pretrial confinement may be no 'more rigorous than the circumstances require to insure his presence'.

The people of Serbia celebrating the defeat of the dictator who held full authoritarian control of their country for nearly 14 years. This is what democracy looks like.
