We are the first generation that has sufficient resources to put a roof over every head, a meal on every table, to provide education and basic health care to all, and to care for the planet. Yet we don't. You have to ask yourself what's wrong with us?

Heading into the Nov. 3 midterm elections, about half of registered voters said healthcare costs are a major problem for them and their families, up from a little more than one-third four years ago, according to a Fox News poll from September. apnews.com/article/trum...

President Trump says that he is offering $1 million to anyone who reports voter fraud in the upcoming election or past ones. Trump did not specify where the funds for such payments would come from.

I think the lesson from Lula is not never talk about the opposition; it's articulate a positive vision that's basically, We Can Just Do Things. That's why Mamdani-ism is so popular - voters have an intrinsic sense that their electeds have agency they're not using

Health care in America is fundamentally broken. We need change, and the people I'm hearing from everyday can’t afford to wait. I’m honored to have the support of so many health care leaders across the state who understand what’s at stake for health care in this Election. #NH01 #NHPolitics

It says a lot about American politics that as Republican politicians get more desperate, they also get more racist. They have an ingrained assumption they are more likely to activate voters on the right through unvarnished racism than from the middle through any moderate economic or social offering

When "talking about judicial ethics" benefits your political opponents the problem is not with your political opponents. #nhpolitics

I was proud to help pass universal school meals in the Maine Legislature. But feeding our kids takes more than passing a law. Hardworking farmers like those at Milkhouse Farms, who produce high-quality milk for families across Maine, are the ones putting in the work.

Appreciated the chance to sit down with Bill Greiner at Bedford (NH) Community Television. I’m fighting Granite Staters in this race, and we have to come together to lower energy costs, repeal the tariffs on small businesses, and fix health care. Watch the full interview here: buff.ly/ISEO5io

It would appear that McConnell speaks.

alternet.org@alternet.org

President Donald Trump's efforts to make deals with Russia and end its years-long war with Ukraine are "certain to fail," according to Sen. Mitch McConnell, with the Republican breaking his silence to accuse the president of "coddling" Vladimir Putin.

In August, President Trump announced he had signed the “biggest oil deal in world history.” ProPublica reviewed the deal and found it gives a small group of people largely handpicked by the Trump administration long-term control of the enterprise.

Anthony DiLorenzo is bought and paid for by Donald Trump, Elon Musk, and NRCC, not New Hampshire. New Hampshire deserves a Representative who will stand up for Granite State families in Washington. We’ve got 9 days to deliver! Let’s WIN this! #NH01 #NHPolitics

Karen Lot Hill (Dist 2 Exec Councilor) wrote a spot-on op/ed in the Union Leader. "I have a constitutional responsibility to scrutinize judicial nominations." It is absolutely vital for NH to #VoteBlue for the 5 EC Dems. www.unionleader.com/opinion/op-e...

Sununu chickens out of a debate. Republicans know they can't defend Trump's economy, so they run away. #nhpolitics

NHPR and the Granite State News Collaborative have cancelled next week's scheduled forum for candidates in the U.S. Senate race. In an email to NHPR Wednesday afternoon, a spokesman for Republican John Sununu said that the candidate could not attend the forum “given our schedule.”

The Republican party thinks Republican voters are too stupid to know who they are voting for. It's impossible to insult the intelligence of Republican voters more than Republican politicians do.

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?
