It was a beautiful night to hit doors in Lancaster with Jenna Jacobson. She is running for state senate District 17. If we flip this seat, we can win a majority in the state senate for the first time in years. Don’t forget to vote up and down your ballot folks! Vote Blue! Vote Cooke! Vote Jacobson!

Trump held a rally in Gaston County, NC a few weeks ago. And now, that county has the largest increase in Black vote share of the early vote in the country. Not saying the two are connected, but I have to admit it made me laugh.

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...

Andrew, you’re my hero.

Angel Reese is having the time of her life while mopping up Golden State.

Donald Trump set another record. There’s NEVER been an election (since polling began in the United States) where voters said “corruption” was their top worry. Until now.

He can say it wrong 100 diffeeent ways. None of those names will be in the Epstein files.

This is awesome. If your vote didn’t matter Republicans wouldn’t be trying so hard to stop you.

Offensive lines are dumb. Cool teams don’t need them. The Eagles, prolly.

So many white politicians have been so weak when addressing white surrealistic and racists. Good on, Ossoff. Nothing he said was wrong.

All due respect to our great blue cities across the nation - all wonderful places to be! - but nowhere is going to deliver on the Day When It Finally Happens like our hatin’ asses in Philadelphia.

Venezuela's Cardon Oil refinery, the country's second largest at 310,000 barrels per day, just unexpectedly exploded and caught fire, forcing a full shutdown. The fire started at a gas line connecting the refinery's diesel hydrotreater and halted the whole plant, including the boilers. #ETTD

You’ll never convince me that this team doesn’t start thinking about the off-season, tee times, and vacation right around September 15. #phillies

Men—we need to talk: •Timothy Hudson raped & killed his stepsister—he got pretrial release •7 men at Cornell drugged, trafficked, & raped a woman—they faced no consequences •An American man annihilates his entire family—every 5 days Women are not safe around men www.qasimrashid.com/p/women-are-...

Somebody please tell Brandt Snedeker that the President is a pedophile.

Not leaving.

Christening a baby is nothing like christening a ship. I know that now. Once again I can only apologise.

youtu.be/Ew9vD1xhcCw?... The Pennsylvania measles outbreak

I just think it’s strange that all the gambling companies have ads with athletes and celebrities instead of featuring all their users who have become millionaires betting, very strange indeed

A Philadelphia family just bought their first home with a $10,000 first-time homebuyer grant funded by a group of Quakers It’s part of the congregation’s racial justice plan to redistribute wealth to Black residents in the Germantown area as a form of reparations

Comments on the PA measles outbreak:

Bohm. We love you, for reals this time. #phillies

Hmmm. Cooper sharp is like cheddar. Who knew? -John Kruk Most of us knew, John. Most of us. #phillies

We are now well into Lysenkoism. We are governed by cranks working off vibes. This is embarrassing and parents will have to push back. Gift link: wapo.st/45REqVL

The senate chose wrong.

We love Derek Hill. We really do.

America hates women. You’ll never convince me otherwise.

Dems strongly favored to take the House in our new election forecast. Senate just better than a tossup: Iowa: 41% Dem Texas: 48 Alaska: 51 Ohio: 53 Maine: 68 Michigan: 69 North Carolina: 84 Georgia: 94 www.gelliottmorris.com/p/democrats-...

CARTOON OF THE DAY #AbolishICE (From @dennisgoris.bsky.social )

Don’t send a man to do a woman’s job

At least we have the House Targaryen vs House Lannister match to look forward to, unless George RR Martin files an injunction.

ETTD

GOOOOOOOOOOOOAAALLLLLLL!!! 🇺🇸

I’m at a nail salon, and across from me a Vietnamese woman is giving a manicure to an Indian woman, who is talking about family in Indian culture. The manicurist is asking thoughtful questions. They are laughing, almost giggling together. This is American culture and I love this. 🇺🇸

kruk asking an actual astronaut "y'all have beer up there" is the apotheosis of Phillies broadcasts

Christina Koch in the booth with Kruk and Tom just made my day. #phillies

We MUST flip the Senate, Pennsylvania!

I love my Commonwealth.

I don’t know man, who is “the Democratic Party” if it’s not the voters?Democratic voters choose candidates, not party leaders. And party leaders need to listen to what voters are telling us - and right now they are demanding our party be bolder.

My grandmother, impoverished with five children, was literally chased out of a confessional for admitting to taking birth control pills. The priest told her to go home and throw them away.

Holy. Fucking. Shit. He just said this.
