Voting early takes your name off the call, text, canvass, and email lists. #VoteEarly

Here are five reasons it’s critical to vote early in these midterm elections.

This is a lie. Kari Lake filed an election contest, a court considered it and she lost.

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Trump on Kari Lake, whose name he can't remember: "I want to give me respects to that person. She's a very good person. She suffered greatly. She won that election. Probably won the other one too. The damn machines were broken in Republican areas!"

Anybody else think the inflation numbers are worse than what the Trump regime released? They are famous for lying and fudging numbers I don’t believe a single thing from these criminals

Part of the reason why Congress seems like it’s run by distant elites who don’t get it is because it is run by elites, who have little experience of what it means to struggle in this country. Only 2% of Congress members have spent any part of their adulthood in the working class.

My take from the Smith hearings: To be a GOP senator today, you have to be a lying piece-of-shit, who puts loyalty to party & our lying piece-of-shit president, above their oaths to the Constitution & their obligations to tell the truth & do what rights to the American people! Repost if U agree

Before calling someone a “dirtbag,” the Senator should have had his facts straight. An apology is in order. Glad one of us knew the difference between the Atlanta Hawks and the Iowa Hawkeyes!

And again, Seattle's Democratic Socialist Mayor is actually working to improve the lives of her constituents.

We banned rental junk fees! Starting July 1st, 2027, the price you see is the price you pay — no pet rent, no admin fees, no lease renewal fees. Step by step, we’re building an affordable Seattle. Thanks to City Attorney Evans and Councilmember Foster, and to the Stay Housed, Stay Healthy Coalition!

So the billionaire David Ellison now will own most news organizations in the United States and he will do whatever Trumpy wants. There will soon not be real actual honest news in America that is legitimately a free press. This is how democracies fall. Hitler burned newspaper presses to the ground.

"Two men deported to Equatorial Guinea by the Trump administration were hooded, bound, beaten with guns and shoved down a flight of stairs recently by police officers at a remote hotel where Trump administration deportees are being held indefinitely..." www.nytimes.com/2026/09/18/w...

nytimes.comA Central African Hotel Has Become a Nightmare Prison for U.S. DeporteesWitnesses say men were hooded and beaten in Equatorial Guinea. The autocratic government there is a partner in President Trump’s deportation program.

The ppl in the WH press pool watch him verbally abuse their fellow reporters, generally the women, in really disgusting ways and they say nothing. They even showed up to the #WHCA dinner and palled around with him. And now they're losing access anyway for telling the truth. When will they stand up?

It's been ten months now and the Trump administration still hasn't fully released the Epstein files because concealing evidence is clearly what you do when you're "innocent."

Epstein survivor Liz Stein becomes emotional while viewing the candlelit tribute honoring survivors: “I come to the realization that I’m a part of this… This is me. This is what happened to me.” “I really genuinely felt like they took my light away.”

What do Papa Johns, Putin & a Dutch ship company have in common? One man: Tom Dans, chair of the US Arctic Research Commission. The role is typically held by science/public policy experts. That’s not Dans. We dug into how he could be leveraging the role for his own interests 🧵

Former special counsel Robert Mueller was asked if Russia is still interfering in our elections. He responded “They’re doing it as we sit here” during his 2019 congressional testimony.

Kyle Griffin@kylegriffin1.bsky.social

Heads up: The Russian government has been targeting Americans with covert online disinformation operations seeking to undermine public confidence the midterms — using a familiar playbook in an attempt to inject chaos into the voting season, according to U.S. officials familiar with the matter.

This, my friends, is gaslighting. Congress is the top three or four of all time only on abdicating its responsibilities. 

Aaron Rupar@atrupar.com

Mike Johnson claims that the current Congress is "probably in the top three or four of all time" and is "almost unmatched in history" 🙃

So Trumpy's mini-me, Petey Hegshit also banned the same news media from the Pentagon. This should terrify everyone. Trumpy's government is banning media it doesn't like. This is a 3 alarm fire on democracy. My demand is simple. PROVE IT. Show us the 'fake news'. They can't, it does not exist.

Epstein survivor Danielle Bensky describes the isolation she experienced and the realization that came from finally seeing the scope of the case: “It’s weirdly vindicating to sit here and see in the files like, ‘Oh no, I’m not crazy. This really happened and it happened to so many people.’”
