I'm hungry, too, for a world like Pope Leo describes! Are you?

i am inviting anyone from a legacy media organization to explain to me why the house judiciary dems report on trump’s epstein’s ties and multiple allegations of rape isn’t worthy of extensively reporting on. i’m serious. i want to understand.

Here's the schedule for briefing in Trump's attempt to steal Mary Petola's win. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

You don't need to turn the audio on I just wanted to share what Jesse Ventura looks like now.

I’d like to report a guy who asked Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger to cook up "11,780 votes” so he could win the state.🙋🏻‍♂️

I love everything about Portland rainy days, except walking the dog. ☔️ 🐕 #pdxtst

I'm happy to finally see the cool and rainy fall weather here in northwestern Oregon. It's about time. #pdxtst #orwx

OK so now THIS is what a Portland October should look like. #pdxtst

Brazil’s results tonight are a big endorsement for the idea that every country should have a second “are you you sure about that” election a couple weeks after the first one for the important stuff

Also for what it is worth, it DIDN'T actually label them as illustrative — and the deception was only apparent because I know the data well. That's scary, because if you use AI for everything, you wouldn't know the data well enough to catch its deceptions.

Update! Bishop apologizes for allowing himself to be tricked. ⤵️ www.archmil.org/posts/a-publ... The WH duped Catholic clergy into what they were told would be high level meetings & private prayer, took secret video, & released it w/o permission! heathercoxrichardson.substack.com/p/october-25... ⤵️

Further addendum: @nilo.bsky.social who seems to know what he's talking about if you look at his profile, disagrees with my take and has outlined why the result may be down not to turnout but to right-wing swing voters who dislike Lula but distrust Bolsonaro more. bsky.app/profile/nilo...

Bolsonaro had corrupt media on his side, Meta interference on his side, US propaganda operations, and his party's officials actively sabotaging public transport in Lula strongholds to prevent turnout. Yet he was still beaten by the power of voter turnout.

Dragging this into the light...in light of Brazil.

shitposting is the Dadaism of our time

🤣 "30 years ago I was on a high-volume high-aggro mailing list, & when someone lost it like this the tradition was for someone to take the text of the message, alphabetize it, paste it into a reply, & say “these words didn’t appear to be in any particular order so I alphabetized them for you” 1/4"

Wonderful news from Serbia! Another Putin puppet down. “The long-serving strongman leader of Serbia, Aleksandar Vucic, conceded defeat on Sunday in an election that pitted him and his right-wing party against a diverse student-led opposition movement that spent two years protesting his government.”

The world is full of countries that are either flirting with authoritarianism, or trying to get out from under it. Wish we'd learn from the latter.

I'd really like words to keep their meanings. Calling the at-will employees of the executive "judges" is linguistic torture.

If we stopped calling them "judges," maybe ppl would better appreciate that these are not judicial hearings in any real sense of the word, and that the sort of independence we expect from judges is completely and totally absent here. And maybe we could demand a system that DOES have ACTUAL judges.

One of the greatest scams in the immigration system has been calling these people "judges." They are at-will employees of the President. They have never had a shred of "judicial" independence, and they are not actually judges in any real sense. Sure, they preside over hearings ... for their boss!

Brazil extended voting hours in lieu of the attempts at voter suppression seen today. We'll know the results soon enough. I hope for all our sakes Lula wins.

This is seriously concerning. So much rides on this election -- the safety of the Amazon, people's rights, oversight on corruption, whether the US's expanding secret war in latin America will get a new partner -- and local far right leaders look to be trying to shut out voters and steal the election

It's people across the system enabling fascism. Not one or top top people, people down the chain

We just went through this two years ago with Washington State’s AG Bob Ferguson facing off with TWO spoiler Bob Fergusons as ringers in the gubernatorial primary.

Our research team is doing real-time coverage of emerging news and rumors related to election integrity. We put out several outputs this week. Several of the rumors we covered are still percolating. Some of the stories may become seeds for conspiracy theories later in the cycle. Some highlights...

Any politician who’s willing to throw away one group’s rights is willing to throw away everyone’s rights. It’s that simple. Every single consultant, pundit and candidate who’s shown a willingness to abandon trans rights needs to be shunned from the party forever

For those wondering why the big push by @indivisible.org @commoncause.org @lwv.org @aclu.org & many others to VOTE EARLY, this kind of election day voter suppression is what we fear. It may not take exactly the same form in the U.S., but this sort of coordinated rat fuckery is why we VOTE EARLY!

We are now at the point where Trump is comparing the asses of Jon Husted and Nicki Minaj.

This is peak Goebbels. It’s the kind of lie used to fuel genocides.

People expounding on the Cheesecake Factory's status in American culture, & the meaning & impact of Obama's joke is approaching being even funnier than his joke. Imagine when it finally leaks past all the WH blockers to Trump, & Natalie has to explain it to him. "No, it's a restaurant..."

Boy, is THAT projection!
