Always double-check your ballot!

No lies detected 😂

Lisa is turning lemons into lemonade 😂

Donnie didn't like that one bit.

In speeches, Obama hit Trump on gas prices and a war nobody asked for. Hours later, Trump bragged at a rally that the country is making a fortune on oil and he doesn’t give a damn what people pay at the pump. Interesting strategy. My write-up in the link in the comments.

Well said, Christina!

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

‼️ This is important. If you can, don’t wait until the last minute to vote. Check when early voting opens in your state at vote.org/early-voting-calendar and plan accordingly.

Each party’s closing arguments are in, and the ads they’re running in this final stretch tell us a lot about where things stand heading into November 3. thinkbigpicture.substack.com/p/2026-midte...

You nailed it, James.

The Democratic Party’s biggest names are all on the trail leading up to Election Day. Obama in Ohio and Michigan. Harris in Mississippi. Clinton in Florida. Sanders and AOC in Maine. And the early votes, forecasts and generic ballots are all pointing in one direction. Let’s keep it going! 👏

Oh dear 😂

Oh, SNAP! 🔥

This advice is GOLD.

Imagine saying all this on purpose 🤐

Wow. Just... wow. 🫢😮🤯

Who told men parenting was a favor?

Trump’s DOJ sued California, threatened election officials with jail time, and staged arrests in the final days before the midterm elections. Legal experts say the lawsuit will go nowhere, but the goal was never to win in court. @readthebigpicture.bsky.social explains what the goal actually is.

This week’s Just for Skeets and Giggles is out! Have a great weekend. statuskuo.substack.com/p/just-for-s...

He is so good at this 🔥

That's how it's done.

That went over like a lead balloon 😬

Puritanical? Or does he have a point?

What do you think? Did the punishment fit the crime?

It's so blatant!

Two weeks until midterms and the closing arguments are in. Ramaswamy exploited his opponent’s trauma in an ad Trump praised. Big names hit the trail for Democrats. And in a gross display of groveling, Witkoff called Putin a humanitarian hours before Russia bombed Kyiv. Let's unpack it all.

He's glitching again.

She went there 👀

They’re not alleging fraud or misconduct. They’re preemptively suing to block certification based on an outcome they haven’t accepted yet. It’s no longer a hypothetical talking point. The Justice Department is officially Trump’s election interference machine.

Following backlash to Shane Gillis' controversial Saturday Night Live monologue, a viral social media prompt asking people to imitate right-wing male comedians inspired a flood of satirical jokes.

Pay attention when a sitting President makes jokes about ignoring the Constitution. Donald Trump is a threat to our democracy; all parties should see that.

The second-hand cringe is through the roof.

That's certainly one way to do it! 😂

A campaign ad should tell voters what a candidate stands for. Too often this year, we’ve seen personal smears, fearmongering, and attacks on the vulnerable. From exploiting Amy Acton’s childhood trauma to Musk-funded anti-trans ads, the politics of fear is on full display.

A billionaire wanted a Trump pardon. His family gave Trump’s former lawyer a $50 million job while she still worked at DOJ. Weeks later, he got his pardon. Wait. Is that legal? My write-up in the link in the comments.

Metaphor alert.

That's how it's done 👏🏼

Who are the snowflakes, exactly? 🙄

The GOP is capitalizing on their anger.

Looks like Natalie forgot to change this Truth Social post from third person to first.

Grifting at every opportunity.

Ummm 👀

Ken is his own worst enemy.

Oh snap!

The transaction couldn’t be more transparent. A billionaire needs a pardon. His family writes a $50 million check to Trump’s lawyer, and the pardon arrives. This is who Trump is really working for. Meanwhile, Americans struggle to get by while he and those around him line their pockets.

What a horrid thing to do.
