Most Americans abhor what they see, because what they see is abhorrent. This is how the great sleeping giant of America awakens, roars, and puts an end to it. This is how America throws the bums out on November 3.

Brazil reminded the world that when people stand in solidarity with one another, we can beat fascism & authoritarianism anywhere. Congrats to President Lula & the Brazilian people on this monumental victory. The Trump Administration must respect the results & Brazilian autonomy.

The allegations against Donald Trump for sexual assault seem to have a common denominator: He is physically violent and intentionally inflicts pain on his victims. He likes to slam women and girls up against doors and walls as he roughly manhandles them. Donald Trump is a sick and twisted person.

Also it would help if governments around the world would hold those corrupt billionaire owned sites accountable. Like if I was Lula over in Brazil I would absolutely permanently block Twitter and Meta after the stunt they pulled and build local owned alternatives.

Inflation eating up worker pay. Household debt and student loan defaults at a record high. 8 million people have lost healthcare. 5 million people have lost food stamps — including 2 million children. Gas prices skyrocketing. Trump says, "Pretend I'm on the ballot." Please do.

I don't know that there is a definitive line to cross that makes you say, "I live in a police state now" but when masked gunmen can routinely brutalize the public, citizen or immigrant alike, with impunity, you have reached that point.

🚨 NEWS: A federal judge has ruled that the Trump DOJ ILLEGALLY fired prosecutor Maurene Comey, ordering retroactive reinstatement and backpay. The judge ripped the DOJ’s defense as bordering on “frivolous” and rejected its sweeping claims of executive power.

Yet another entrenched authoritarian defeated yesterday in Serbia. As the United States approaches a critical midterm election, Serbia shows that we can win despite uphill authoritarian conditions. It can be done. It takes all of us, especially young people. Timothy Snyder

Black workers are facing a shameful crisis of high unemployment that has everything to do with Trump's racist & fiscally irresponsible economic policies. But this isn't just a crisis for Black workers—it’s an alarming indicator of the state of our economy. The Fed must act NOW.

The resistance around the world keeps growing. Brazil and Serbia are thousands of miles apart, but people in both countries are standing up to authoritarianism. They’ve shown us what can happen when people refuse to give up.

Fucking facts. Democrats are held to a much higher standard than the Rapepublicans. While they "smash and grab", we're expected to clean up behind them. Every.Single.Time.

Just to let folks know, we're not changing schedule until next week. Discussed it with Tara and tomorrow is going to be the last 9-2 ET Radio Dead Air. Nov 2nd we switch to 7-12 ET and WTFIWWY will be at 10pm ET. Thanks for understanding.

Nash@radiodeadair.com

I think one of the biggest changes I'm going to have to make soon is that I can't do Radio Dead Air at the same time. I started the show 26 years ago. I was a kid, up all hours because I was sad and not caring for myself. Seems obvious, but keeping that time slot has made my life worse.

Attn: USPS changes mean your ballot may not be postmarked the same day you mail it. Don’t wait until Election Day! Deadlines vary by state. Some require ballots to ARRIVE by Election Day, not just be postmarked.

More than 27 million Americans have already voted early. 🗳️ And a federal appeals court sounded skeptical of Trump's DOJ trying to set aside up to 20,000 California mail ballots. They're scared of turnout. Give them more of it. 8 days. 🏳️‍🌈
