The only reason I can think of for this news not being absolutely everywhere is that large media orgs don’t want to be seen as putting their thumbs on the scales a week before election day. And that’s cowardly as shit.
Beyond disgusted by even more rape allegations against the President of the United States. "In total, more than 25 different women...have independently accused Donald Trump of rape, sexual assault, or other sexual misconduct." Report w/ new details: democrats-judiciary.house.gov/sites/evo-su...

As Nick Robinson interviews Farage on #r4today for the umpteenth time, may I remind you that BBC News has instituted a policy of trying to make itself more attractive to Reform voters. True story (see further down this thread for deets).
Nick Robinson just asked John Curtice if the BBC giving a platform to Farage & Reform was responsible for their popularity; presumably hoping to hear the polling guru say a resounding "no". Instead, Curtice said, "it's not just that, it's also how he uses it" So the answer's clearly yes. #r4today

"Imagine a mother who would run away—abandoning her children—because she chose a pedophile rapist over her own flesh and blood. And now imagine that woman slithering out from her hole to defame her daughter in the service of helping a cretin."

No need to try to explain this: men are consistently more right wing than women, whether it's Brexit, Trump, Barsolarno, the AfD, etc etc. Maybe we should disenfranchise men. NEW: Why Men And Women Are So Divided On Alberta Separatism www.readthemaple.com/why-men-and-...

Brazil, thank you for winning 👍
If Brazil falls to the right wing today, the Trump capture of South America will be complete. The US, Israel and Russia anti-democratic forces will have greater room to concentrate operations on Mexico and Canada. Brazil’s outcome will carry global consequences for democracy.
And yet the good guy won. It can be done Americans but it takes decent Americans getting out and voting, every single one of you, NOW.
Despite orders for polls to remain open for an extra two hours, results are already coming in, including from states with the strongest evidence of voter suppression, like Bahia. This will be a long night. What is happening is an unprecedented crime against democracy in Brazil.

Incredible. Student List are candidates selected by groups of students to form an anti-corruption party. Another youth-led movement overthrowing an authoritarian government in Europe.
Serbia: The Serbian Progressive Party (SNS-EPP) has admitted defeat in today's parliamentary elections. The Student List (SL-*) has won a majority of votes. #Serbia #Srbija #Izbori2026

Thank you to the Brazilian electorate, especially to the young women who seem to have stepped up in a huge way to protect their country. You've given the world hope. 🫡
Brazil just reminded the world that fascists can be defeated at the ballot box. Our turn comes November 3. Let’s make it fucking hurt.
