Vote. Do it for Renée and Alex. 🖤

Republicans.🙄 State Sen Brent Taylor of Memphis is the GOP nominee in Tennessee’s newly redrawn 9th District, and multiple sources claim they've received or seen nude photos from him. He insists it was "youthful indiscretions," but one was from 2021 when he was 53. www.rawstory.com/brent-taylor...

This ad is gross beyond belief. It’s also not from the El-Sayed campaign or any official Democratic group. Hate on it all you want but be honest about where the ad came from - a PAC connected to Cenk Uyger (and he should take it down yesterday). AES rightfully condemned it.

Apoorva Ramaswamy Usha Vance Harmeet K. Dhillon ....are NOT doing much for the reputation of Indian-American women

A judge has sided with Democratic gubernatorial candidate Gina Hinojosa, ordering that Gov. Greg Abbott's office let her inspect unredacted communications with billionaire Elon Musk. Abbott has appealed. Read More👉 ebx.sh/S0oWTJ

We're suing Secretary Hegseth for withholding information from the public about the Pentagon’s plan to study the “effectiveness” of women in ground combat roles. As the Navy’s first woman helicopter pilot, Joellen Oslund is proof that women have served with distinction for decades.

the ADL is more mad about Zohran calling a neighborhood Eastern European than Elon giving a Nazi salute Zohran derangement syndrome is real

“the only previous time he ran for executive office was for mayor of Rio de Janeiro in 2016, when he fainted during a televised debate and finished fourth” 🙃

Peggy Flanagan's campaign shares some "facts from the ground" today: *540,347 Minnesotans have already voted, breaking records for early voting engagement in a midterm election. *That’s up from 358,648 at the same point in 2022. *Voters in Dem strongholds are turning out at record-high numbers.

This is what I meant when I said in 2024 that when I looked at the incoming administration, all I could see was rape. It’s the heinous act itself, yes, but also a mentality, as deftly explained here:

🧡💛🤎 Tue, Oct 27 Yesterday, orcas dotted the inland waterways of Puget Sound along w/ 2 humpbacks & overstaying grays. Outside PS, J pod moved up Haro Strait, hopefully the rains are ample for the salmon to return home. 📸 Little one rises amidst golden hues of autumn. By Jason Cook 10/25. #psws

James Talarico’s rally in El Paso went over capacity 🔥

A new ad paid for by the Christopher Street Project in support of Abdul El-Sayed has hit Grindr.

It's really important to pay attention to the fact that Lula beat the fascist candidate not by compromising and trying to meet fascist voters in the middle, but by sticking to his guns, promising prosecutions for election interference, and mobilising his own voters to turn out in greater numbers.

Tonight a protester at his rally in Mississippi told him to “shove that ballroom up your fat ass” and he definitely heard it Happy Monday, everyone

Luis Sandoval, a 48-year-old from El Salvador, died on Friday at the Folkston ICE facility, owned by the notorious GEO Group. The detention center is already facing scrutiny over poor conditions.

Some of the most meaningful moments on the campaign trail have been spending time up in the Sault with the Bay Mills and Sault tribes. We must protect tribal sovereignty, protect our Great Lakes, and ensure everyone can get a good job and know that our basic rights and dignities are preserved.

The Ramaswamy ad has pushed the largest newspaper in Ohio, the Cleveland Plain Dealer, to reverse its position on endorsements. "A candidate who uses childhood sexual abuse as a weapon against the person who endured it has crossed a line that Ohioans should defend, whatever their party."

Jon Ossoff’s closing argument went in for the kill.

Women who vote Republican ignore the sexism so they can enjoy the racism.

The vile attacks on Amy Acton need to be seen in the context of a party that *needs* people to believe women fabricating sexual assaults is common as rainwater. Because it’s pretty much the only way to evade the conclusion that the president is a rapist.

I don't know that there is a definitive line to cross that makes you say, "I live in a police state now" but when masked gunmen can routinely brutalize the public, citizen or immigrant alike, with impunity, you have reached that point.

Katie Bouman was 29 when the world saw its first image of a black hole. At MIT she built CHIRP, an algorithm for imaging from sparse telescope data, and helped turn 5 petabytes into one picture. When her ecstatic reaction went viral, trolls swarmed to give a male peer credit for her work.
