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.

Lorenzo Salgado Araujo was driving his construction crew to work when an ICE officer shot and killed him in Houston. He wasn’t even the person ICE was looking for. Now Texas voters are leaving their “I Voted” stickers at his memorial. #BlueWaveIn10Days

IT'S SHOW AND TELL TIME! That's right! It's Sunday! And that means it's time to shake things up with a little grown-up show and tell! So show us something neat and tell us about it! Something you made, something you did, something you're proud of. Friends, pets, family. Anything really! Go on!

I would really appreciate your opinions!  Which sign do you think would have more potential to sway a Republican who is rethinking what’s going on? Groceries or military? Strength or affordability? What would resonate more? Also, should it say vote Democrat or vote Democratic?

Obama: "Imagine the power duo of Abdul and Elissa. You got a Muslim man, a Jewish woman, fighting for you in the US senate. That's something, Michigan, you can be proud of!"

Q: Why do you think Americans tell us over & over they don't like the direction of the country? MIKE JOHNSON: Look, it's a hostile media environment. Most of the mainstream media of course is advancing the false narrative of the other side -- the Democrats & the Marxists. They're on the other team

We acknowledge that no one has the bandwidth for this, but if it helps: -It’s ‘sleight of hand’ -It’s ‘bated breath’ -It’s ‘lo and behold’ -It's 'buck naked' -It’s ‘brass tacks’ -It’s ‘free rein’ -It’s ‘toe the line'

Today I put up Make America AMERICA Again signs at 12 of the 18 early voting sites in Raleigh, NC. It was dark by the time I put up the last sign. There were way more Democrats working the polls than Republicans.

At one of the sites, nobody was at the Republican table. A Dem poll greeter told me one person came by and asked where the Republicans were so she could get a voting guide. When she heard they’d left, she was so ticked off that she left without voting.

Another individual got the Dem voting guide and then asked where the Republicans were, saying, “I usually vote both parties.” When he found out all the Republicans left, he shrugged and said, “I guess I’m just voting for Democrats this time.”

I've been openly saying it was foolish for anyone to use Starlink because of Musk's whims. Except, I have included America in that. It's not reliable for anyone, because it's in the hands of a psychopathic madman.

A 'SpaceX' investor said he’s not only “disgusted…from a humanity perspective” (by restrictions on Starlink in Ukraine), but also because: “.….they've given everybody a reason not to use Starlink, that Starlink isn't reliable for national security for anybody but Trump.”
