If Dems take back the House and Senate, they should impeach Vance, not the orange one, and then not approve a VP replacement, keeping that vacant. They wouldn’t get 67 to remove the orange one, but I bet enough hate Vance to remove him. I trust nature to deal with the other one. 🤞

Weird propaganda ad during the World Series calling liberals the *new* racists. If true, aren’t the republicans implying that they’re the OG racists? Like “Yep, we’ve been the racists for the past 400 years. NOW it’s the liberals!”

CBS deleted this post and reposted it admitting that their original one was misleading. And the misleading post from CBS was intentionally misleading, not an innocent mistake. CBS continues to lose credibility.

This is why it's dangerous to give rich people so much power over our lives. Sometimes, they are appallingly ignorant. The Nazis added the word "socialist" to their name purely as propaganda to appeal more to workers. But the party--and Hitler--hated real socialists and communists.

Here’s something you should know about minks: They have lungs and airways remarkably similar on a cellular level to those of people. They’ve spread flus and infected humans before with COVID-19. Right now, bird flu is spreading on a Utah farm filled with thousands of them… 🧵

I wish people would stop talking about the high D early voting numbers. First, it's quite possible it's just Ds who would have voted anyways but are just doing it earlier to be safe. Second, I'd rather Rs think D numbers are low, so they feel less compelled to vote themselves on Election Day.

This is not how American democracy should function. It’s getting worse every election, not better. I know constitutional amendments are difficult, but it seems like there should be a bipartisan supermajority of citizens who say enough with this stuff.

I remember when media did a whole bunch of stories about Joe Biden’s shoes to emphasize that he was old. But Trump can randomly blurt out random noises, fall asleep constantly in meetings, and walk like a drunk failing a sobriety test, and we get almost nothing.

Trump has pocketed billions of dollars from crypto schemes as he deregulated the industry. He's also pocketing millions of dollars buying stock in corporations that he's actively helping. Wondering why he doesn't care about affordability? It's because he's doing better than ever.

There’s a third option: Reject this insane religious fearmongering and live a free life without worrying about imaginary threats of eternal torture.

Note that the incumbent DS has “incumbent” next to his name and the other DS will be knocked out in the ranked choice process (and anyone who is confused would make the incumbent DS their second choice, helping him in round two), so his being on the ballot really has little impact anyways. 🤷‍♀️

Trump opened a hotline to report people who defraud the government. Meanwhile, he's pardoned 70+ fraudsters — including a nursing home owner who stole $1.3B+ from Medicare and Medicaid. Many pardons only came after their family members gave to Trump's Super PAC. Hello?

Trump said he’s prepared to settle the Camp Lejune cases — but he won’t if voters fail to make him happy.

Today, while protecting Palestinians, Brad Lander & a group of American rabbis & others were taken by the IDF. Releasing Brad isn't enough, the Israeli govt must release them all.   If this is how they treat Americans, imagine how they treat Palestinians. Trump & Rubio's silence fuels this impunity.
