Found it – where’s my $1 million? You can wire it straight to the 10,000 election workers who are volunteering their time to protect against your efforts to steal the midterms.

NEW: Trump is offering $1 million to anyone who reports cases of "voter fraud" in the midterms or past elections that lead to a conviction. It's his latest attempt to present rare cases of illegal voting as a widespread problem that threatens U.S. elections. https://demdock.com/4zaT6fH

This summer, 86 Senators came together to strengthen sanctions on Russia. This weekend, Trump incinerated that consensus to hand another massive giveaway to Putin as he wages his bloody assault on Ukraine.

This story from Last Week Tonight stopped me in my tracks. Cole did everything right. He had insurance. He took his medicine. Then the inhaler he'd relied on for years suddenly cost over $500. Cole should still be alive. I'm fighting to make sure this never happens again.

JANSPLAINING is an interesting book blog. This lady takes no shit, which is sort of exhilarating. She takes on the ever-popular blurb-o-mat, pointing out such words as "propulsive," "epic," (which means long), and my favorite "luminous"--which means not much really happens in this book.

Education unlocks doors and opportunity! I’ve invested millions in early childhood education, K-12, mobile health clinics at schools, and investments in schools and colleges all across NM, and introduced legislation to increase teacher pay, and unlock opportunities for non-traditional students!

Mr. President, our state is not yours to rename. Our history is not yours to erase. Our culture and identity run deep, shaped by generations of New Mexicans long before you or the U.S. were here at all. We are proud of who we are and where we come from. Because we are New Mexicans.

We’re here to stand with survivors! Days ago a colleague was violently sexually assaulted in Phoenix. As a member of the Democratic Women’s Caucus we’re here to stand with Bernadette Greene-Placentia and all survivors. Because, survivors’ voices matter. Survivors’ stories matter. ❤️‍🩹

KNOXVILLE: “This is the sound of Tennessee… and this is how it sounds under Jason Zachary.” 👀 Wow — Jason Zachary’s TN house opponent Lindsay Honaker dropped this 🔥 ad with (under-discussed!) facts about Tennessee under Republican *leadership*

The GOP's gerrymandering backfired because they underestimated just how many communities would turn on Trump. Watch Rick Wilson on MSNOW:

The frontier of artificial intelligence is advancing at an alarming speed. Over the weekend, industry leaders voiced support for an idea that the American people and many AI researchers in their own labs have been calling for: We must responsibly slow the pace of frontier AI development.

Donald Trump and his war in Iran are to blame for our nation's sky-high diesel and gas prices. His latest ploy—buying fuel from his friend Vladimir Putin—reeks of weakness and will help pay for Russia’s war but will do nothing to make life more affordable for American families.

“You can’t con people, at least not for long. You can create excitement, you can do wonderful promotion and get all kinds of press, and you can throw in a little hyperbole. But if you don’t deliver the goods, people will eventually catch on.” - Donald Trump, The Art of the Deal

Trump: "Our country is making hundreds of billions of dollars on oil. and then on top of it we have Venezuela, and we have Greenland! 'We're making trillions of dollars. But my people said 'please don't mention that, sir, because people are paying a little higher'... we're making a frickin' fortune"

An Egg McMuffin with OJ is now over 10 bucks. If you’re working a minimum wage job, that’s more than half an hour’s work in Arizona, and even more in many other states. Everything is more expensive in Trump’s economy.

This Administration is one of the most corrupt in history. Everything Trump does makes him and his rich friends even richer, meanwhile working Americans are still struggling to get by.
