Scott Presler is one of the GOP’s most famous election integrity guys. He spends all day reminding his followers to “report any suspicious activity.” The Bulwark did, and an election lawyer said it isn’t a close call. Remember this next time MAGA starts up the voter fraud nonsense. Link in reply.

I’m very glad to see more republicans endorsing democrats running for office. This is the movement we hoped to create in 2024. The time apparently wasn’t quite ripe then. It seems so now. The new, reinvigorated American democracy begins soon. thehill.com/homenews/sta...

Everyone keeps asking me how I’m feeling about early voting so far. I’m feeling like nobody *actually* knows anything, and this is the most important midterm of our lives. I’d rather be us than them, but we can’t get comfortable. We can’t get complacent. Go vote like we’re down 3%.

Q: You said Russia and Ukraine agreed to a ceasefire, but both sides said they have not agreed to that TRUMP: Well they agreed, you know why? Because I said 'you agree.' That's why.

Maybe I'm missing something, but I still don't get this. Schmitt was saying Smith went to a Hawks game. His evidence was texts that mention "Jack" but not from Smith (and the Hawks does not have a 109 row). Yes, Smith went to a Hawkeyes game, but Schmitt did not present any evidence of that.

Republican Senator from the . . .checks notes . . . Midwest, is unaware of the existence of the Iowa Hawkeyes. Good for the Republicans in the Senate that there isn't a close election going on in Iowa, and that this mix-up will play nonstop on local news.

This is how you do it.

This is priceless. Check out how local news is reporting on Sen Eric Schmidt’s clown-show grilling of Jack Smith. They found Jack Smith at the game… “Top corner, section 109, row 1. In fact, that seat doesn’t even exist in Atlanta.”

This is the ad you paid for. It aired nationally on Fox yesterday during Illinois at #7 Ohio State and again during Fox News Sunday this morning. Enjoy the privilege of paying for political propaganda with your tax dollars.

That's a relief - they've had a 2 week war that has been going for months to accomplish less than nothing, their fight against the Marxists apparently doesn't include concerns about centralized restrictions on exports (diesel), and hurrah for the expelling the . . . checks notes . . . fascists.

to be clear, the admin is alleged to have deported AT LEAST 25,447 individuals TO COUNTRIES THAT ARE NOT THEIR OWN with, evidently, ZERO PROTECTIONS. this is a scandal and crime of historic proportions.

the @forbidden-stories.bsky.social investigation is so deeply important. put the illegality to one side. the trump admin is brazenly sending ppl to third countries, lacking any cxn, without any guarantee they won't be sent on for torture, abuse, persecution... it's horrible.

Top tier comedy.

LOL -- The White House pool is boycotting Trump, but Real America's Voice is trying to fill in the gap. Unfortunately they haven't yet figured out how microphones work so Trump is still yelling into the void.

Mary Peltola stood in Valdez with prices every Alaskan understands: $5.25 for gas, $6.75 for diesel. Dan Sullivan voted 12 times to continue the Iran war. Each vote drove fuel costs higher across Alaska. He chose the war. Alaskan families, fishermen, and truckers got the bill.

Now, admittedly I'm not an IT expert or in law enforcement, but it seems to me that the F.B.I. probably should have been spending more of their management time safeguarding their data (and with it, their people) instead of wondering how best to get "known" perpetrators of bestiality an FBI jacket.

NYT has now independently corroborated all the major allegations against Susan Collins in the ProPublica report, including that investigators were prepared to move against her and then Trump intervened to shut it down. This put Trump in a position of exceptional and extortionate leverage over her.
