The good news is that we are winning in court. The bad news is that we have to win every case. Trump only needs to subvert one election to break democracy.

Small-dollar donations to Republican candidates are just apocalyptic. Selected examples here. Our forecasting research found in-state individual contributions are a strong predictor of results. Way stronger than PAC spending! votehub.com/2026/10/24/2...

"Republicans are showing, through their spending and use of Trump, what they think the state of play is. And it’s worse than they ever imagined it could get." Yet the polls suggest less dismal prospects. Which is right?

Amy Acton: "I had a pretty rough childhood…My opponent has chosen to exploit, intentionally, this story in a desperate attempt to save his struggling campaign…It's not going to work because decency and compassion still matter to us.”

The editorial board said using a survivor’s abuse against them crosses a line that should matter to every Ohioan, regardless of party. “We are better than this. We have a responsibility to show it.”

Vivek Ramaswamy’s ad targeting Amy Acton’s childhood sexual abuse backfired. It prompted Ohio’s largest newspaper, The Plain Dealer, to reverse its policy on political endorsements and endorse Acton for governor.

I know who I’m fighting for because I know who Texas belongs to.

If January 6 wasn't enough to turn Republicans against Trump, don't expect them to uphold democracy in the midterms. Watch LP Senior Advisor Stuart Stevens on MSNOW:

Puro 956

Last week, I met with young leaders from the My Brother's Keeper Alliance at the Obama Presidential Center. They shared more about the work they’re doing at school, their goals for the future, and even gave me an update on their class elections. Take a look!

"Bankruptcies are up, suicides are up, but nevertheless, we have hope in this president." Kansas farmers are suffering under Trump's tariffs, and Sen. Roger Marshall's message is essentially to keep the faith. @timmiller.bsky.social & @billkristolbulwark.bsky.social call out the cultish insanity.

I haven’t felt this optimistic since the last time I was catastrophically optimistic.

I am absolutely brimming with confidence. And also PTSD.

🔥KULINSKI: “Who’s more responsible for your life being hell: trans people, Muslims, immigrants or billionaires? You know... 2 years of an anti-immigrant regime, is your life better? As @jamestalarico says the minority destroying 🇺🇸 are billionaires.” (H/T @marco.foster)

I hope more candidates—pastors, teachers, firefighters, and others—grasp the weight of their words about fellow human beings. Everyone deserves treatment marked by dignity and respect.

Te quiero, Corpus Christi. Thank you for having me, El Dusty!

Gas prices are “temporarily” high, says the president. That’s because Republicans are temporarily in power. Vote.

PSA: If you’re more upset about Obama making a joke about Cheesecake Factory than you are about Trump making it impossible for you to afford to EAT at a Cheesecake Factory, then congratulations, because YOU are an idiot, and an asshole, and you’re in a fucking cult.

Many of you are asking how you can help me in these final days before the election. My only ask is this: Spread the word about the threats to democracy and how we can fight back. Tell everyone to subscribe to Democracy Docket and share its content. demdock.com/4w6emld

If you live near the Obama Presidential Center on October 31, HALLOWEEN, this looks like a cheerful spooky treat everyone can enjoy! 🎃🎃🎃🎃 #ProudBlue #DemVoice1 #USDemocracy

Everything costs too much right now. That's why as governor, I'll secure the American Dream by putting money in your pocket.

A student walking to school ended up needing surgery after agents stopped the wrong person. This demands an independent investigation and accountability.

After being released, the injured student made his way to school, where staff called an ambulance. School officials reported cuts, bruises, and a wrist injury requiring surgery. ICE claims he resisted and “never requested medical assistance.” He was described as NONVERBAL.

This is absolutely horrible! A nonverbal student with special needs was walking to Santa Maria High School when ICE agents tackled him, restrained him, and left him with a broken wrist requiring surgery, according to witnesses and school officials.

On November 3rd, 36 states will elect their next governor. The outcome of these races will make a real difference in the lives of millions of people — but only if you vote. So join me in electing @demgovs.org: democraticgovernors.org

The Trump administration’s top border official defended plans to build a wall and other infrastructure in Texas’ Big Bend region despite mounting opposition and a court-ordered construction pause. The administration has asked the Supreme Court to lift the halt and allow work to resume.

You wanna know why billionaire mega-donors are spending $200 million against me? Because I don’t take their corporate PAC money — and I never will. I don’t work for them. I work for you.

Justice @anitaearls.bsky.social has spent her career fighting for civil rights and protecting voting rights. She’s the only candidate running for North Carolina’s Supreme Court with a proven record of standing up for all North Carolinians. Make a plan to vote at IWillVote.com/NC.

Cornyn on Starlink being throttled in Ukraine: "I don't believe that Elon Musk would do this without at least the acquiescence of the White House. I think it's frankly shameful. I think we should be supporting the victim, not the aggressor."

The Trump regime is arresting green card holders who have no recollection of registering to vote and accusing them of fraudulently registering to vote to create the illusion of non-citizens voting being a real problem. www.latimes.com/california/s...

Kansas has an incredible opportunity to send Adam Hamilton to the Senate. He’s one of the most interesting candidates we’ve got running this year, and I’m thrilled to support his campaign for a better Kansas.

How did you find out the young man’s identity, @wsj.com? hmm?

This is our best chance to secure the American Dream by saving Texas schools and putting money in your pocket. Polls are OPEN for early voting until Oct. 30th. Let’s vote, Texas!
