Big news: Court finds Maurene Comey's termination was unlawful and violated her rights under the Civil Service Reform Act, grants reinstatement and backpay. It's a strong and welcome punch in the nose to a bully. I'll be doing a longer youtube on it shortly at youtube.com@talkingfeds

Hi everyone! Just got back from a few days of elections coverage in Georgia and lost my voice along the way! 😳 I hope to be back in the saddle tomorrow, but in the meantime, make sure you’re taking care of yourselves. We’ve only got 13 more days to the Midterms! 🗳️

If we (US) take the brunt of Russia’s anti-democratic op, I will accept it. If this is just the beginning of decades of attacks on anti-democratic norms, we are f$&ked

I take my right to vote so seriously because people DIED fighting for it. Black men gained voting rights in 1870, but Jim Crow laws, violence, and intimidation kept generations from the ballot box. It took until 1965 to pass the Voting Rights Act. #ElectionHeroesVoteEarly 🧵

Similarly, crooked Donald Trump redirected $20 million in taxpayer funds from the Department of Homeland Security and U.S. Customs and Border Protection to pay for campaign-style television and streaming advertisements promoting him ahead of the midterm elections.

Ron and Cassie DeSantis: These two crooks stole $10 million from a settlement with a charity, wired it to Cassie’s fake “charity,” laundered it through two puppet organizations, and then used it for political ads in an election year. They should be in jail.

I went to vote this morning and there was a line. A LINE TO VOTE EARLY. That's never happened! #VoteAngieNixon #VoteBlue

Poland’s Foreign Minister Sikorski: basically calling Trump a liar. “The US no longer finances this war since January of last year. In other words, for more than a year and a half. The US has not contributed a single cent to the defense of Ukraine. We are doing it. Europe.”

Students from North Carolina A&T can be seen marching back to their HBCU after voting on the first day of early voting in the state. The Guilford County Board of Elections voted to remove the school’s on-campus polling site. (video via Todd Simmons) greensboro.com/news/local/g...

Replying to @maxkennerly.bsky.social

If this report is right that Musk is trying to engineer Ukraine's defeat, then his motivations are more complex than just making money and avoiding liability. This move is not the way to make the GOP win. So Musk cares MORE about hurting Ukraine than about winning races. Ask why - who he answers to.

The part of this clip where he points out that gas was cheap the day before he started bombing Iran could be run on its own as an attack ad by the Democrats

Trump: "Unlike Biden and Obama and these guys, they don't look at gas pumps, but I do. And I'm looking at the price."

Kinda wild that there have been wild protests going on in Albania for months set off by a corrupt Kushner luxury resort project and there has been barely coverage of it here 🇺🇸 and Trump never gets asked about it.
