Consider this your assignment for National Voter Registration Day. Head to IWillVote.com and check your voter registration status. Then send this to the group chat and make sure they check theirs, too. We all need to turn out this November and be too big to rig.

Turning 26, changing jobs, or getting a divorce shouldn't strip away your healthcare. Abdul El-Sayed is right: it is corrupt to force working families into medical debt while health insurance CEOs pocket tens of millions in bonuses every year off our premiums and deductibles #momsky#sheshed

I know this is understood, but to say it clearly: Even if LA and SD were populated by Trotskyite Martians, they deserve life and safety.

I get it that MAGA does not care about over 5 million people in L.A. and San Diego. They think every single person there is a Liberal and therefore should be executed. There are at least 500,000 registered Republicans in this area that Trump just declared to be expendable & "a small price to pay."

If theres proof this is targeted to certain voters, which should be easy to prove, it’s illegal as f**k. If we only had a functioning justice department.

Betrayed by a woman. The patriarchal system co-opts women, often in the name of religion, teaches them to submit to men, then turns them against non-conforming women, even against young girls. To be clear, not all men are guilty—I know many good men—but the system evolved by and for men.

Exactly this. She’s corrupt. But it’s also a damning commentary on our lax Big Money election funding system. We need a more comprehensive solution in addition to firing Collins.

Three of our four investigations ended at the same senator's campaign account. A pardoned fraudster. Epstein's billionaire client. ICE's jailers. Susan Collins took money tied to all three. Maine has 31 days to be concerned. www.dworkinsubstack.com/p/trumps-sen...

Let’s imagine that Smith was, in fact, at a Hawks game in Atlanta. It’s still a huge and incredibly illogical leap to say that means he saw, much less colluded with, Willis. Atlanta is a big city. Do we have texts showing she was at the game? What a dumbass.

This would help—a lot—but what’s really essential is teaching and then constantly reinforcing, year after year, long form reading, evaluating sources, reasoning, logic.

Idle question: Do you think learning Civics in college as a requirement might help people understand what goes on in DC and maybe even vote regularly. I keep thinking it might help.... because no one paid attention in my Jr High school Civics class except me.

Where’s Melania?

Take a moment to let this sink in. We’ve seen it so often we can become innured. The States are preparing for federal interference in midterm voting. Simply appalling.

Democracy Docket@democracydocket.com

NEW: When SCOTUS blocked Trump's bid to restrict mail voting earlier this month, the country's top election officials let out a sigh of relief. Still they remain concerned about possible election interference, and are readying their states for everything from ICE at the polls to ballot seizures.

I’ve been crying all morning over tributes to Dolly. Imagine using your fortune and fame for goodness rather than personal gain. The contrast to our current set of superrich thugs is palpable.

And just like that, the most damning Epstein files completely VANISHED from the media. A sitting congressman, Ted Lieu, said on the record the Epstein files are being blocked because they show Trump raped and threatened to kill children. Lets make this viral again 👇

Reporter: Family members of service members are concerned about conditions on the LIncoln. Trump: No they’re not. Reporter: Has the deployment gone on too long? Trump: No. Not nearly long enough.

This is Fraya. She came in to escape the Tennessee summer. She’s been inside almost two hours, so my partner decided it was time to go out. Fraya won’t budge. She is studiously avoiding eye contact and has gone deaf. NB: Fraya is not our dog.

He doesn’t have a clue. He lost his last inkling of a clue a long time ago. He wouldn’t know a clue if he saw one. And if he did, he’d fire it or defund it or give it to some stupid unqualified sycophant to run it into the ground. Then crow about saving it, having long ago forgotten what “it” is.

Q: Is there any safeguard in this deal to prevent Iran from charging fees after the 60 days? TRUMP: The thing that's gonna stop them, because you can't cover everything in a document, is common sense. They don't want to get bombed.

The fact that Trump cut the $20Million that it would have taken to prevent the screwworm epidemic, but now is going to spend $1Billion to eradicate it, tells you all you need to know about Trump and today's Republican party.

When you see the story about how the world now has its first trillionaire, and when you see the story about how laboratories in Congo have run out of supplies to test for Ebola, it is important to understand that in many ways these are the same story.

No money for pediatric cancer research but there's $1.7 billion for people who beat cops and smeared feces on the walls of the US Capitol.

Based on this Virginia ruling, the Tennessee and Florida maps should both also be shot down. If not, Virginia should just pull a Tennessee and change the rules to ram it though the legislature. 🤷‍♂️

Note that there's been no threat to sue over this statement. I know I would be suing for tens of millions if I was innocent.

Sir, take out your phone, open the Calculator app, and type in $100 - 600%. Let us know what the little window says. We’ll wait.

We've been pointing out for quite some time how much tRump lies & how insane he is. I think what's different now is MAGA & repuBlicans are paying attention & agreeing. That's a BIG FAT FREAKIN' WIN !! I'm happy with their enlightenment 🙂

When I click on a link and leave the main “Following” feed to read an article or view an image, I’m popped back to the top instead of back to where I was before I left the main feed. I suppose this is happening to everyone? It’s annoying AF.

Tacky and shocking, even for him. My questions, which I haven’t seen addressed, are, first, who created the AI image? Someone had to, Trump himself or on his instruction. And second, what were the prompts? Was the word “doctor” in any of the AI generator instructions?

If you missed the exchange between @raskin.house.gov and Pam Bondi today, watch this masterful statement from him on behalf of the Epstein victims: “You are siding with the perpetrators and you are ignoring the victims. That will be your legacy.” Repost if you agree she is the worst AG in history.

Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris were right about EVERY SINGLE FUCKING THING — but God forbid we elect highly qualified women when we can elect an incompetent pedophile, right? 🙄

For those of you who talked about Biden like a dog, look and see what you screwed up! Our country was doing very well, but you called Biden old and said he had dementia. So a Black Women picked up the mantel. But you hated her too. You chose trump. Now you FOUND OUT he’s a POS! #SheShed

Today was awesome, a triumph. What is next? Lasting change depends on what we do tomorrow and the day after. Stay in the media’s eye. Drive the assholes crazy. Show we mean it.
