I know there’s a lot going, but 19 Republican AGs have said—in writing!—that pro-choice speech should be criminalized. Thats a Big Fucking Deal and it blows my mind that more people aren’t talking about it

Raskin: "When historians look back on this miserable period of our history, they might say that the first problem was disregarding all those women who told us back in 2016 that they had been sexually harassed or assaulted by Donald Trump."

Trump begged for Russian help in 2016 election vs Hillary Clinton. Russia happy to help Trump in exchange for a secret alliance with the dictator Putin!#TraitorTrump

The Russians are helping the Republicans and once again the Republicans are accepting their help. This has become so normal everyone has forgotten to be enraged by it.

This is not a drill. This is not another midterms. This is the ten days where we decide whether we spend the next two years fighting or surrendering. I know what I'm choosing. Vote early. Flip the House. Flip the Senate. VOTE BLUE! #BlueWaveIn8Days

The Museum of Bad Art rose from trash. Founded in 1993, the museum has amassed about 900 paintings from thrift stores, yard sales, flea markets and curbside trash in 31 states and 15 countries. About 100 pieces are on display at the Dorchester brewery. https://wapo.st/4z7ejHe

In his acceptance speech, Lula says he will work to regulate digital platforms in Brazil. “Digital crimes must be dealt with like real-life crimes.” This comes after Meta directly interfered with the Brazilian elections, favouring Flávio Bolsonaro.

A win for the resistance! Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva defeated Flávio Bolsonaro to remain president of Brazil, dealing a major blow to the far right in Latin America. Ketchup will be flying tonight at the White House! 💚✊

I think that the Russian propaganda machine (Bots & trolls) and the role it plays in politics globally is the reason Musk cut Starlink to Ukraine Because they were destroying Russian data centers Russia even interfered in the Alberta separation debate online We should all thank Ukraine

Sen. Adam Schiff tells NBC that Pete Hegseth and "anyone who has knowledge of what happened" should testify before the Senate on Ukraine's Starlink disruptions. "Somebody is lying here. Maybe they're all lying in different ways, but we need to find out."

Whenever Russia's invasion of Ukraine is in serious trouble, Elon Musk is called upon to lend a helping hand. In 2022, Russia needed Musk's help to stop Ukraine from liberating more territory. This month, Russia needed Musk to clear the path for jet drones to kill more civilians.

daviddillard.bsky.social reposted

Elon Musk says the limit on Ukraine’s drones came from “ultimately POTUS.” Trump says he has no idea who did it. One of them is lying.

There is one immigrant messing with our elections and his name is Musk! There is Twitter, hundreds of millions of ads, and threats to computers and internet: Musk cares nothing about democracy, voters rights, or our Constitution!#Immigrants
