Abdul El-Sayed is a Rhodes Scholar, with degrees from the University of Michigan, Oxford, and Columbia. 84% of Rhodes Scholars are Democrats or Independents, compared with just 14% Republicans. It’ll be great having Abdul in the Senate.

Flávio Bolsonaro has been banned from leaving Brazil and ordered to surrender his passports following his presidential election defeat, amid investigations into suspected influence-peddling, money laundering and other alleged financial irregularities.

Brazil's, Trump backed candidate, Flávio Bolsonaro faces a corruption inquiry over R$134 million sought from jailed banker Daniel Vorcaro, who is also linked to suspected influence-peddling involving associates of election court chief Kassio Nunes Marques.

Besides being racist and false, this suggests science is only carried out by a few geniuses who claim prizes, whereas in reality science relies on smart and diligent people committed to collaboration and discovery without special recognition.

What in the ever loving racist incorrect mouth dropping is this??? The Arab world “produces” plenty of “science”… which is all the more impressive since the West periodically bombs all their shit.

After losing election in Brazil, Trump backed Flávio Bolsonaro said that he would not accept the results and called for the election to be annulled. This is coming attractions for US. Trump will 100% claim midterm results are fraud after GOP loses. We need Democratic AGs to swiftly charge Trump!

Trump’s team urged him not to celebrate higher oil prices ahead of the midterms. He ignored them — again. The guy seems convinced that consumers will celebrate Big Oil cashing in, even as they suffer at the pump. This probably isn’t what Republicans want voters to hear. www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

ms.nowTrump ignores his own team’s advice, celebrates higher oil pricesThe more consumers suffer, the more money oil companies make. The president is celebrating this as part of his closing message ahead of the midterms.

Failed to stop inflation? That’s letting Trump off the hook. Trump CAUSED price increases. His stupid war is why fuel prices are sky-high. Everything else costs more because of that.

Trump promise to bring down costs, but inflation is still outpacing paychecks. With the midterms a week away, Democrats are trying to tap into voters’ frustration in the midterms.

📊 A new poll reveals voters overwhelmingly reject Trump’s election-meddling tactics. Voters were given potential scenarios outlining how federal or state officials might respond to the 2026 election process. Overwhelming majorities disapproved of every tactic: https://demdock.com/4yIGP19

The Brazil election story today is already wild. Alleged efforts by some local mayors to stymie public transportation to suppress votes. Extended voting hours. Now vote is coming in, Bolsonaro with a slim lead, and yet the Polymarket has totally flipped in the last few hours towards Lula:

Betting markets are breaking towards Lula as we speak. If he beats Hospital Man Jr., even with all of the corrupt bullshit — from bus services shut down to Zuck and Trump's government interfering — he's a Certified Dawg™.

Brazil should have barred the whole Bolsonaro crime family from elected office. You can’t give fascists another chance.

Bolsonaro-friendly mayors appear to be sabotaging public transport on Election Day. Buses aren’t running in Lula-friendly areas, flights and ferries mysteriously canceled. Traffic lights have gone out and people’s power cut in Salvador, indigenous people’s travel restricted

The word incumbent on the ballot makes it pretty clear. Todd Blanche is not an honorable AG. He is a puppet for DJT. They are dishonorable at every turn. Remember their arguments before, during & after January 6, 2021? DJT pardoned every criminal, convicted at trial for their January 6 crimes!

BASH: What's the crime? AG TODD BLANCHE: What's the crime? Well it depends. There *could* be a crime. But the real wrong here is that Alaskans are gonna be confused. BASH: The Alaskan Supreme Court ruled 4 months ago on this matter

asked if Trump directed him to sue Alaska, Blanche says "I will not talk about communications I have with the president" (So, yes, Trump did)
