Trump is gonna turn Alaska forever-blue. Colluding with Russia to give them Alaskan assets and land while attempting a federal takeover of their elections. Incredible politics!

Don’t F with Alaska. Guarantee you this Trump/Blanche coup attempt is making the small government super-majority there infuriated, and may lead to an implosion of any pro-Trump politician there.

One of the most effective things Obama could do for the party is let it rip like this all year long. He's so good, but he saves it for rallies a few weeks before elections like it's a severely-limited resource and that's just not how the modern communications environment has evolved.

🧵🧵🧵 10 ways the planet’s richest person, Elon Musk, has been busy making the world worse. A thread. 1. Buying crooked politicians like Ken Paxton.

Americans are relearning the lesson we learned during the Gilded Age of the late 1890s, when robber barons ran the government and the economy for their own benefit: Oligarchy is incompatible with the common good. I'm hopeful we'll respond with a new progressive movement.

Justice Elena Kagan has sharply criticized the Supreme Court's conservative majority — saying it undermined democracy in a series of rulings, including several that prompted the wave of gerrymandering. "[T]he court has blinded itself to the very deleterious effects of their rulings."

America is currently being run by a cabal of 21st century robber barons, crazy racists, and pedophile protectors. Some who are all three. History will not be kind to this era, nor to the people involved.

And media - who loves to ride the drama of a pollercoaster - needs to take a hard look at what's legitimate and what's not. If this teaches us anything - DON'T GET COMPLACENT AND DON'T TRUST THE POLLS. LOCK IN. SIGN UP FOR A CANVASSING SHIFT. LEAVE NOTHING TO CHANCE OVER THE NEXT TWO WEEKS.

As one of the candidates featured in these polls - the infamous one in late June that showed me plummeting into single digits (which was at odds with our internals) - here's the impact of this "experiment"

BREAKING: Elon Musk helped coordinate attack, murder of Ukrainians with Vladimir Putin and Russia.

Been thinking all week about the @nytimes.com interview with @markjacob.bsky.social. The Times said they don’t want to lose their fascist readers by reporting harshly on fascist politicians. Please think about that for a minute, what that means, and what it will (is) lead do.

Another reminder that billionaire fascists are astroturfing online and in traditional media everywhere to make it seems like their extremist ideas are popular. Months and months of supposed ‘huge movement’ that was a fabrication. Yet again.

Emphasizing again that we cannot treat this as just business as usual. This is the President of the United States openly attacking an entire ethnic group.

I’m confused, Samuel Alito and John Roberts told us critiquing courts is a despicable problem from the left and dems. I guess we just aren’t going hard enough!

Everyone is on Jan Crawford of CBS for her post about Abdul El-Sayed today, but you may have missed her post about Zohran Mamdani ten days ago. This is who she is.

when critics of bari weiss say that she is not a journalist, we mean that literally. she does not respect or even appear to understand the values of the profession. everything for her is propaganda. www.semafor.com/article/10/1...

This after CBS News “reporter” Jan Crawford was caught celebrating white nationalism on X. Crawford is a Weiss acolyte and plant. What they are doing isn’t hard to understand. We don’t have to watch, support, or give our time and money (ads) to this burgeoning propaganda organization.

Spotted in Soldotna.  I don’t know how anyone in Alaska can afford Dan Sullivan’s gas prices.

Part of the answer to "how did we get here?" is that many major journalists—since 1998, Crawford has covered SCOTUS for PBS, ABC, and CBS—are lying bigots. Here Crawford is praising a guy who asked a dumb racist question, glitched out when asked why, then admitted he wanted a Christian theocracy.

Zelenskyy: "If the United States supports Putin, it's unbelievable, it's a tragedy. It's a historic mistake. If United States officially takes the side of Russia, of course we will not prevail and we will not be able to stand."

I don't know how CBS News can claim it's a nonpartisan news outlet when a prominent CBS correspondent like Jan Crawford goes after Abdul El-Sayed in such a ridiculous manner. Of course, Crawford attended the CBS owners' dinner in honor of Trump, so her MAGA leanings were already well established.

Ossoff is adamant he doesn’t want to be president and is running to fight against spreading white nationalism and fascism. That’s why he should be President.

How has @cbsnews.com correspondent Jan Crawford not been fired after this? Even at the new Conservative BS News? They are still in the pretend-to-be-legit stage, yet she's already removed her mask

This is Tommy. Tommy had a question about my allegiances. Listen to the end to hear about his.

Masked Israeli settlers attacked Palestinian villagers on Friday, setting olive groves on fire and slinging rocks. Caught in the attack was Post photographer Heidi Levine. “They just kept kicking me and kicking me, like probably 50 times,” Levine said. https://wapo.st/4yt6dHY

This is one of the craziest things I’ve ever seen in any newsroom, large or small, anywhere! Absolutely stunning to have this audio!

it's pretty f'd up that the Trump administration is trying to deport my duly-elected member of Congress

Barely 1/3 of a Scaramucci!!!

🧵🧵🧵 The NY Times posted a 15-minute video today in which I got to tell NYT what’s wrong with its coverage. They said they saw my critical posts on Bluesky and invited me to do a video with them to air my grievances. Weird, right? I didn’t hold back. I blasted their sanewashing of MAGA extremism.

Sampling errors don’t just work in one direction. If the polls are wrong the other way, which is equally possible, it will be a complete wipeout like we haven’t seen in a half-century. Vote!

This is truly psychotic and not the view of the vast majority of Americans, provoking our friendly neighbors for no reason at all.

Look at the shabby state and increasingly authoritarian trajectory of the country and ask yourself if we can endure 2 more years of a lawless Trump administration wreaking havoc with no check from Congress, then vote accordingly. This is not the time for a protest vote or purity politics.

😬 Katie Zacharia's first press briefing was brutally bad 😬 Trump managed to find a press secretary who can barely read, but she does have the number one qualification -- looking like Ivanka Here's a supercut from Zacharia's first briefing, which made Karoline Leavitt seem like Ronald Reagan

I’ve got a piece in the @nytimes.com this morning about why Supreme Court reform has to be at the top of any agenda for democratic repair www.nytimes.com/2026/10/13/o...

If you are shocked this am that Trump’s government executed a search warrant against a Democratic Member of Congress and ignored a judge’s order then you haven’t been paying attention. Stop saying this isn’t how it works in the US. It is exactly how it works under Trump.

I’m ok. Make no mistake: this is an attempt to target political enemies and weaponize federal law enforcement. For ten years, Trump has targeted me with baseless lies and smear campaigns. This is just the latest escalation in his campaign of political intimidation. I will not be silenced.

DHS claims the man ran in front of their SUV. You be the judge.

BREAKING: A Trump-appointed judge has ruled DHS violated the Due Process Clause of the Fifth Amendment when it removed Ahmed Soliman to Equatorial Guinea and must facilitate his return to the US. prospect.org/2026/10/07/f...

ICYMI, last night a federal court in Arizona ordered ICE to "facilitate the return" of an Egyptian man currently imprisoned incommunicado by the Equatoguinean government. Mr. Soliman was sent to Equatorial Guinea with no notice. ICE refused his request for a torture screening.

My latest essay for the @arktimes.bsky.social on the legacy of novelist E. Lynn Harris and whether the U of A's culture leaves space for Black gay Arkansans.
