One of the most competitive House races in US is Wisconsin’s 3rd. Democrat, Rebecca Cooke, is ready to kick out incumbent and 1/6 insurrectionist, Derrick Van Orden. She joins me for the latest in her race, including Van Orden’s repeated use of AI-generated deepfake ads. youtu.be/vaWfahm9NLQ?...

Like father like son

Just an example of how bad our health system truly is….

Trump is going to swing state Mississippi. LOL

Sen. Adam Schiff tells NBC that Pete Hegseth and "anyone who has knowledge of what happened" should testify before the Senate on Ukraine's Starlink disruptions. "Somebody is lying here. Maybe they're all lying in different ways, but we need to find out."

Here’s the relevant language in the DOJ lawsuit. It asks for the election not to be certified if Peltola’s margin of victory is smaller than the number of votes cast for the third-party Sullivan. (I expect this to be laughed out of court.) storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

And donald Trump is a domestic terrorist who should be in federal prison.

I can’t wait for the midterms to be over. 😡

OBAMA: They can't hear your boos. They'll hear your vote

He will 100% do this about 2-3 days before the end of his presidency. Guaranteed.

“Trump’s got the White House looking like Saddam Hussein opened up a Cheesecake Factory.” - Barack Obama in Ohio.

"Right now, we’re living in Trump’s world, in Vance’s world, in Hegseth’s world. This is what a world without empathy looks like. It’s a world of constant othering, of constant rage, of a constant belief that life is a zero-sum game. But nothing flourishes in that world." — @snipy.bsky.social

OBAMA: That just feels a little bit different… where people are so sick and tired of being sick and tired. After 2 years of chaos. and cruelty. and corruption. and incompetence—you get a chance to say enough's enough.

Absolutely 👇

Can you imagine having a photo of you and Obama when you were 1?

Perfect 👇

🚨BREAKING: On behalf of Mary Peltola's campaign and the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, Elias Law Group has filed to fight DOJ's lawsuit to rig the Alaska Senate election. We will win this case, Mary will win this election, she will be certified and seated.

We acknowledge that no one has the bandwidth for this, but if it helps: -It’s ‘sleight of hand’ -It’s ‘bated breath’ -It’s ‘lo and behold’ -It's 'buck naked' -It’s ‘brass tacks’ -It’s ‘free rein’ -It’s ‘toe the line'

I miss this man

Happy first day of early voting, New York!

everything about ICE needs to be ended.

Overall, we are seeing some very odd deal talks that are supposedly a part of ending the war in Ukraine. But in fact evidence shows these deals are structured (in the most recent case secretly until now) to financially benefit Russia or business partners of the Trump and Witkoff families.

ProPublica: Ken Paxton says he's tough on crime. His trust invested $600,000 in a convicted fraudster's company. "The blind trust's investment in Wildcatter offers a new, unreported look at the attorney general's financial ties with … executives whose prosecutions he typically celebrates."

BREAKING: The Trump DOJ just sent letters to local election officials across California — every county in the state — demanding they identify potential noncitizens on their voter rolls and set aside their ballots. Local officials would "risk significant federal scrutiny" if they failed to comply.

JUST POSTED: A Russian energy giant has secretly moved to acquire a position in a massive Alaska gas project. Its part of talks between Witkoff/Kushner & Putin. But CEO of US company resigns after learning of Russian money in the project. A wowzer of a story. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/23/u...

So next year, my Marketplace health insurance (for just me) is going up 135%. From $242 per month in ‘26 (more than double what it was in ‘25) to $570 in ‘27. Pretty upset about it but know I’m not alone.

As discussions of rape have permeated this election season, Trump has remained constant in his loyalties. He described Max Miller as a “good person”; he “felt badly” for the Cornell 7; he called the ad with Acton’s birth mother “very powerful.” He excuses it because he identifies with the accused.

Why is Trump making so many concessions to Russia now? I think it's three things. #HighStakes

Californian (born and raised) here who dropped off my ballot almost 2 weeks ago. I’ve already gotten notified that my ballot has been received and counted so I certainly hope Donald isn’t able to screw with it at this point

Fuck this administration and all their supporters.

Worth remembering

Ossoff: "I encourage all of you to reach out to the Collins campaign to ask him how explains the continued production & dissemination of white nationalist and antisemitic propaganda from his property while he runs for the Senate. It's one of the most shocking developments in GA's political history"
