Two points: 1) This is what real political talent looks like in action. 2) That sign language interpreter is HARDCORE.

spare a thought for a millennial about to move back in with his dad

this is literally like, just a guy getting into his late twenties and realizing his shit is apart and needs to be put together. many such cases. wish it did not have the impacts it does on electoral politics

Sad😢

It's really important to pay attention to the fact that Lula beat the fascist candidate not by compromising and trying to meet fascist voters in the middle, but by sticking to his guns, promising prosecutions for election interference, and mobilising his own voters to turn out in greater numbers.

One benefit of holding leaders accountable for crimes is that if Flávio Bolsonaro tries to overturn this election, he knows exactly where he’d end up. In prison, next to his father.

I do not regret to inform you that we are going to win

Lula!!!!!!!!!!!!

Getting reports of rage and frustration in the north east of Brazil - a Lula stronghold - where people weren’t given access to polling stations despite the extension of voting time. What a poisonous night.

"Alexander says he didn’t come back to Ingram to help deport his neighbors... he just ended up making it part of his job. Alexander and Ingram’s other patrol officer had delivered at least 70 people to immigration agents. Within a year, they would hand over the equivalent of 10% of Ingram to ICE."

I have a friend who is a social worker doing the same work as this social worker. She has also told me stories of women like Amy Acton's mother.

Obama: "The guy has become billions of dollars wealthier in office. Nobody disputes this! It's just -- how do you do that when you're supposed to be looking out for you? And the worst part of it not a single Republican in Congress has done anything to stop it."

Something I wish more people would realize.

That’s Trump’s U.S. Park Police tackling and trampling people at a concert in DC today. These are the same police whose practices killed Josue Chavez in March and Nolberto Meza in June.

This admission alone is an impeachable offense

Ossoff: "I encourage all of you to reach out to the Collins campaign to ask him how explains the continued production & dissemination of white nationalist and antisemitic propaganda from his property while he runs for the Senate. It's one of the most shocking developments in GA's political history"

This is one of the most holy sh*t stories I’ve ever read in my life. www.vanityfair.com/story/jared-...

EXCLUSIVE: Pete Hegseth wanted Gen. Dwight Eisenhower’s globe for his office. His staff broke it. The Pentagon denied us access to take photos, but we obtained some anyway. A story in global affairs: wapo.st/3WF2YQo

It's OK to hate the people who voted for this.

If you use AI-produced writing in humanities scholarship you are dead to me. How I evaluate that kind of writing is by crossing you off my list,

Talarico: "We just found out that [Elon Musk] is almost single-handedly bankrolling this effort to install Ken Paxton in the U.S. Senate and defeat this movement...Elon Musk wants our land. He wants our water. He wants his very own personal United States senator. He is trying to buy Texas."

Abdul El-Sayed has MAGA fascinated and terrified this election cycle. But I don't think it's (just) because he's Muslim. They don't know how to handle his aggressive and blunt style. It just goes to show the power of Democrats actually fighting back. www.salon.com/2026/10/19/a...

Sue every last one of these MF

OMG Jalen hurts 🤬🤬🤬 Fire everybody on the Eagles

SCOOP: 'Tommy' from the now-viral exchange with Abdul El-Sayed is Thomas Teepell, a former staffer for Republican Senator Josh Hawley with close ties to Christian Nationalist Sean Feucht. He's the son of a former Bobby Jindal staffer whose consultant work was instrumental in getting Hawley elected.

Love this. Tommy got played masterfully
