So the United States Secretary of State doesn’t know anything about global warfare satellites besides what he reads in the paper?

I just early voted in Missouri. Democrats downballot. I did not mark uncontested races. Not one Republican will get my vote, even if they are the only choice. And remember: Yes on 6. The rest are tricks.

While in Springfield last night, I polled the audience and asked how many of them early voted. Out of almost 150 people, almost every hand went up. LFG!!!

Here’s another example of abuse. Same as the Dana Bash clip, he attacks her for not giving him time to speak, then gaslights her about what’s in his lawsuit. I bet a lot of women recognize this behavior.

BRENNAN: The DOJ lawsuit demands the Alaska result not be certified if voters are confused. The confusion is defined as Sen. Sullivan not winning. BLANCHE: That's not what it says BRENNAN: I'm quoting from it. You are telling them not to certify it. What right does the federal govt have?

As a former teacher, I never scrubbed in for a gender reassignment surgery, but I did instruct the kids on how to get the window screens off in case of an active shooter…

About this H5N1 mink farm in Utah. It is REALLY dangerous to let bird flu spread unchecked through mammals, esp minks. They have similar susceptibility & respiratory physiology as us. Flu can adapt to human hosts by adapting to mink respiratory tracts. rasmussenretorts.substack.com/p/the-party-...

Starting a pointless trade war with our most reliable partner as a distraction from your failed war in Iran (that you launched as a distraction from your administration covering up the Epstein files) isn’t going to win you any votes.

NEW: For decades, Idaho laws have allowed parents who belong to the Followers of Christ and other faith-healing sects to pray rather than seek medical treatment as their children die. At least five sets of parents have lost multiple children.

You can’t afford groceries or gas or healthcare or childcare or utilities or rent? No worries. I’m sure the president will get right on it after he does the important work of renaming lakes in his pissing match with Canada…

I don’t advocate for any religion, though I am naturally tolerant of most — I still struggle with Evangelicalism. With the Southern Baptists. With the trauma of my youth and the years of enlightenment I lost to fear and intimidation and misogyny and control. jesspiper.substack.com/p/letters-to...

Republicans have always told us that cutting regulations for corporations would make products better and cheaper. Turns out, without regulations, corporations will just wash our food with literal shit and charge us even more for food we can’t eat…

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.

Imagine trying to scare me “Sharia Law” while I live under a GOP supermajority trying to reinstate an abortion ban, while writing bills to put the 10 Commandments in public schools and ban books and free speech. I have nothing to fear, except the Christian nationalists in front of me.

Oh, this needs to happen. No hiding or excuses. Just Darlene Graham and Annie Andrews on that debate stage. 🔥 “The television stations are ready. I’m ready. The only person we haven’t heard from is the woman who believes she deserves to be handed a six-year Senate term.” - Annie Andrews

Republicans don’t hate education. They just believe that only wealthy children should have access to an education. And if you don’t believe me, just look at their policies.

Nothing in my state can be blamed on even one Democrat. Missouri is representative of what Republican “governance” looks like in action. Trust me, you don’t want this…

Missouri’s unelected Republican Attorney General is asking Scotus to invalidate my state’s constitution to force a gerrymander meant to oust Rep Emanuel Cleaver. They will do anything. Anything to consolidate power and rip it from the people including invalidating a state constitution.

A CNN investigation reveals Russia likely provided crucial satellite information about U.S. bases, giving Tehran a major advantage in the war. And not a word from Senile Satan.

Every time I hear a Missouri Republican complain about “the Democrats,” I have the same question: who has been in charge of the state for over two decades? I’ll wait…

The message Trump is broadcasting to US allies and partners today: he can't be trusted and he lusts for more wars, invariably against friends and allies, while sucking up to Russia and China.

We keep kicking the GOP‘s ass. Come on, friends. If we all show up, we can make a difference in November. Check your voter registration. Make a plan to vote. Bring a friend.

So tired of these assholes. They do whatever they want. They don’t care. They’re not satisfied with a 6-2map. They want to erase every Democrat in the state. They want to erase every black voice in the state. It’s not democracy. It’s red state tyranny.

What you need to understand is Missouri is a laboratory of autocracy. The billionaires and the GOP have been in cahoots for decades to see how they could disrupt democracy. What you see happening with our maps and our Secretary of State is pure chaos. Chaos for the sake of chaos…to disrupt voting.
