I have to say this is an S-1 first ANTHROPIC WARNS OF CATASTROPHIC, EXISTENTIAL RISKS TO HUMANITY

House Judiciary Democrats have just released a 50-page report that pulls together years of assault allegations against Trump and his reported connections to Jeffrey Epstein. The report calls for a special counsel to investigate Trump's ties to Epstein.

I’m not a political journalist, so was gladly surprised at the community I found here last night. To Americans anxious about the upcoming elections, a key thing we learned in Brazil that might help you: DO NOT engage with the far-right online. Don’t share rage bait. Amplify your people. Ignore them.

Kavanaugh stops in action: ICE tackled a non-verbal kid near his school, left him with injuries requiring surgery, and then left the scene when they realized he wasn't the person they were looking for www.independent.com/2026/10/23/i...

I do a deeper dive on why it matters that Democrats are seeing elevated performance from young, Black, and Hispanic voters 👇 The huge Hispanic voter surge is a very important emerging story in the 2026 Election. www.hopiumchronicles.com/p/some-addit...

Monday morning early vote update via TargetEarly. Democrats continue to see very strong and encouraging early vote turnout from young, Black, and Hispanic voters compared to this day in 2022. Black voters ⬆️ 9% 18-29 yr old ⬆️ 20% Hispanic ⬆️ 38% 1/

In a recent post Trump told us why they dump these polls into the polling averages and into local and state coverage - to demobilize our side. 3/

Trump says he examined Jon Husted’s ass to groans but then says Nikki Minaj has a nice ass to cheers

Trump is the worst president in American history. In 9 days, YOU can vote to end his agenda.

The Acton campaign immediately went to work to monetize Vivek’s blunder through texting and email solicitations. Great to see that it paid off.

The student-backed movement is projected to win a parliamentary majority, ending more than a decade of dominance by Vučić's party.\

Trump's son Donald Trump Jr. personally met with Vučić, while Jared Kushner pursued a major luxury real estate project with his government. Now, after nearly two years of massive student-led protests against corruption and authoritarianism, Vučić's ruling party has been defeated at the ballot box.

A stunning defeat for a Trump-aligned right-wing leader in Europe. Serbian President Aleksandar Vučić, whose government cultivated close ties with Donald Trump and his family, has conceded defeat to a student-led opposition movement in a historic parliamentary election.

Kansas Dem Sen. nominee Adam Hamilton on trans rights: “I don’t think we should take a small group of people and bully them, pick on them, and hurt them. I understand one thing really clearly when it comes to transgender people, and that is Jesus told me I was to love my neighbor as I love myself”

President Trump repeatedly called Abdul El-Sayed, the Democratic nominee for U.S. Senate from Michigan, a “jihadist” who should not be allowed in the halls of Congress unless he goes through metal detectors.

I'm going to start this thread on the presidential count in Brazil—so people who are interesting can follow along. With 3% of vote counted, Lula up 51.3 to 48.7 (that's a lead of 103K). Pattern in 2022 & in R1 was Lula down big at 1st, then closing gap, but that's shaken up by today's 2-hour delay.

Hungarian PM Péter Magyar: "I have just spoken by phone with the leaders of the Students List, who won the elections in Serbia, to congratulate them... I assured them of Hungary’s support. I was delighted to hear how much strength our victory in April had given them during this difficult struggle."

From Hopium: - We can now clearly see an encouraging surge of blacks, young people, Hispanics voting in the early vote - "Elections are decided in November, but won in October" - As Trump's desperate f-ckery escalates be prepared, not scared 👇 www.hopiumchronicles.com/p/more-signs...

JUST POSTED: Today at The NYT we are publishing a major investigation into how President Trump used his executive powers to expose millions of Americans to greater cancer risks. A six month-long investigation built on more than 10,000 pages of FOIA records. Read it www.nytimes.com/2026/10/24/c...

Building on @tbonier.bsky.social's terrific analysis below it is pretty clear now we are seeing a national surge of blacks, young people, and Hispanics in the early vote across the country (all data via TargetEarly):

JUST IN: Starlink speeds for Ukraine’s military are back to normal after more than a week of restrictions, Ukraine’s Defense Ministry said Saturday.

🚨BREAKING: On behalf of Mary Peltola's campaign and the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, Elias Law Group has filed to fight DOJ's lawsuit to rig the Alaska Senate election. We will win this case, Mary will win this election, she will be certified and seated.

The Justice Department's last-second letters about noncitizen voting contain people with no history of voting whatsoever, and they're moving so fast they sloppily sent one county the wrong list of names.

Given all of this, it shouldn't surprise anyone to hear that 217k votes have been cast by Texans who didn't vote in 2024, and fully half of those voters are Hispanic.

In fact, young Hispanic Democrats (modeled partisanship) have well more than doubled (2.2x) their 2024 turnout from this point last cycle.

Hispanics under the age of 30 have not only exceeded their total turnout at this point in 2024, they have almost doubled it.

As turnout in Texas nears 3 million votes, Hispanic turnout is now exceeding presidential levels. More Hispanics have voted than did at this point in the 2024 presidential election. What's driving this huge increase? Young voters.

IMPACT: Citing ProPublica, Lawmakers Introduce Bill to Help U.S. Citizens Sue ICE for Wrongful Detentions @nicolefoy.bsky.social

Per a database of discrimination complaints obtained by @propublica.org , Trump's Department of Education is actively ignoring reports of rape and assault on campuses so they can instead focus on transgender athletes. Their obsession with trans people is actively putting women and girls in danger.

Best way to fight back? Vote. Minnesota: You can vote now or cast your ballot by November 3.

Total respect for NBC's Monica Alba, who asked Trump exactly the question he needs to answer. By refusing to answer, and attacking her, he has effectively told the world that no, sexual abuse allegations do no mean a thing to him. Imagine if she wasn't there. We'd be the poorer for it.

All of those responsible for these acts of violence — and their leadership — will be held accountable.

ICE said Antonio Moreida jumped onto the hood of their vehicle. Now a local police investigation concludes that an ICE agent struck him with his SUV. The routine lying by ICE is the result of the example set by leadership of the Department of Homeland Security.

JUST POSTED: A Russian energy giant has secretly moved to acquire a position in a massive Alaska gas project. Its part of talks between Witkoff/Kushner & Putin. But CEO of US company resigns after learning of Russian money in the project. A wowzer of a story. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/23/u...

What’s going on here?

Fall is here. So we can finally talk about this serious topic... Jonagold vs. Honeycrisp apples.

People in Alaska WROTE IN Lisa Murkowski and she won. Alaskans know what they're doing. trump and the DOJ are just looking to start problems.

Reporters need to stop tolerating this abuse from this man.

Trump has the lowest approval rating for any president before a midterm since Harry Truman in 1946.

Extorting Marines with cancer to own the libs.

Whaaaaaatttt?????

Masked ICE agents threaten handcuffs. Taxpayer-funded intimidation. Constitutional abuse must never become normal. PAXIS.app is people-funded via GoFundMe.com/PAXIS to provide free access for immigrants without direct legal help. Fund it. Share it. Demand accountability.

If I'm a Republican I am not feeling great about an election year where my party is getting swamped in Kansas.
