I like the idea of a #PurpleCaucus made up of senators and representatives declaring themselves: Independents Even a small number, working together, could shift votes and make both right and left come toward the center. Their platform would be to promote what the majority of Americans want.

Yesterday, tens of thousands of people are rallying in Tel Aviv ahead of elections on Tuesday. They favor the opposition, against Netanyahu and his government and demanding a commission of inquiry into the failures of the October 7th massacre. Vote him out!

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.

What will history call this wave of anti-authoritarian victories ? “Vucic's defeat comes months after his close ally and Magyar's right-wing predecessor Viktor Orban also lost the elections.”

Here’s another example of abuse. Same as the Dana Bash clip, he attacks her for not giving him time to speak, then gaslights her about what’s in his lawsuit. I bet a lot of women recognize this behavior.

BRENNAN: The DOJ lawsuit demands the Alaska result not be certified if voters are confused. The confusion is defined as Sen. Sullivan not winning. BLANCHE: That's not what it says BRENNAN: I'm quoting from it. You are telling them not to certify it. What right does the federal govt have?

I know that everyone is focused on Trump's attacks in California and Alaska. My team is fighting in court in both places. But understand the fight for free and fair elections is much broader. Elias Law Group is currently litigating 92 voting and election cases in 42 states plus DC.

I didn’t know that the election for Mike Johnson’s seat in Louisiana on Nov 3 has become a primary ~ due to earlier redistricting shenanigans. If he doesn’t get 50% of the vote, he’ll face a run off in December. Louisiana… help Mike OUT, please ! www.conrad4congress2026.com/meet-conrad

Obama in Michigan: "After 10 years of chaos and cruelty and corruption and incompetence and tomfoolery and nonsense the likes of which this country has not seen in modern times at least, you get to say enough is enough. We're voting for change right here in Michigan."
