Last Week Tonight with John Oliver did a great episode last night highlighting the extremism and at most generous Nazi-adjacent members of the Republican Party, many of whom are up for election on November 3. Please take some time to watch it and send it to others. 💙
Here’s last night’s story about the rising prominence of extremist beliefs within the Republican Party, what it has to do with the upcoming elections, and why being 31 years old is one of the least cute ages you can possibly be. https://youtu.be/SnsBI4YxwIs
AK Dem Senate candidate Mary Peltola and her family suffered minor injuries Saturday in a car crash while driving to a campaign stop.
Wishing @marypeltola.com a swift recovery 🙏🏼💙
Protect this woman at all costs!

A new Inquirer/New York Times/Siena University poll of 1st District voters finds that Democrat Bob Harvie is leading U.S. Rep. Brian Fitzpatrick 48% to 46%.
Imagine thinking your Hail Mary pass is weaponizing your opponent’s childhood rape, then being stupid enough to double down when the whole thing blows up in your face.
Instead of damaging Amy Acton’s campaign, he’s turned his attack into an own goal.
I don’t think the Islamophobic attacks and disinformation are having the effect Mike Rogers and Republicans thought it would.

HOW MANY MILITARY FAMILIES HAVE TO GET SICK BEFORE HEGSETH ACTS?
Our troops should be defending this country, not fighting for the right to live in homes that won’t make their families sick.

THIS SHOULD BE GETTING MORE ATTENTION
Wedgewood Polls admitted that the vast majority of its election polls were based on fabricated data.
And these major news orgs fell for it: The New York Times, POLITICO, Newsweek, MS NOW, The Hill, The Daily Beast & Breitbart.
Here is a sample ballot in the Alaska Senate race. Despite there being two “Dan Sullivan”s on the ballot, Alaska has made sure voters know which is which. The Trump administration lawsuit is beyond a Hail Mary.

It is notable that the Cleveland Browns are involved in funding the reprehensible ad against Amy Acton, which essentially attacks her as a survivor of an alleged rape when she was a child
The franchise traded for quarterback Deshaun Watson after he was accused BY AT LEAST 27 WOMEN of sexual assault
Ramaswamy has produced an attack ad weaponizing the rape of his opponent, Amy Acton, when she was 12 years old. It features Acton’s mother, who abandoned Acton after she was raped by her step-father, fleeing the state with her husband.
Here is the corporate money helping fund that ad.

George Carlin has a great interview with Larry King talking about Andrew Dice Clay where he said he’s free to do what he wants, but he disagreed with it because comedy should punch up, not down. I use that as my test for good comedy. George Carlin would hate Shane Gillis.
According to Amnesty International, there were 17 public executions last year. 11 in Iran and 6 in Afghanistan. And Trump and Hegseth want us to join that exclusive club. At long last, Republicans, have you no decency?
Remember this is why we need Democrats to take back power in DC so that they can stop some of these cuts that take effect after the election. #LetsGetVoteReady by checking your voter registration status, vote early and vote all the way down the ballot. Your vote is your voice so use it.
Have you heard of 1789 Capital?
The venture capital firm founded by Don Jr?
They obtained a stake in a small company named Vulcan Elements-and quickly got a $620 million deal from the Pentagon
Why?

This is obscene. Buy enough of Trump’s crypto, and you can buy your way into a dinner with the President. Buy even more, and you get VIP access.
Presidential access with a price tag.

Here are the problems with Trump & Fox’s claim.
Overcharges from ACA user fees date back to money collected during Trump’s own first term.
And refunds only go to eligible people in the 30 states using the federal exchange. States that operate their own ACA marketplaces aren’t included.
Today's thread starts with joy as the community came together in Oswego, New York to protect a couple of roofers from #ICELawlessness & prevailed.
Let's rally like this across the country to protect our immigrant neighbors by helping elect Democrats in every race who will fight for accountability.
