Note: In 2016 Trump won with the help of coordinated messaging amplified by bots. He still relies on that coordinated messaging, tho the Epstein schism undermined that some. But this SEEMS to say you don't stay off Xitter and Facebook--you coordinate to game it.

8 days now, and Scott Colom can win in Mississippi.

Bobby Pulido, running for Congress in Texas, is more than a quinceañera singer. The 53-year-old Tejano music legend is the Democratic nominee in a freshly gerrymandered swath of Texas. While the race to unseat his Republican opponent once seemed an uphill battle, polls now consider it a toss-up.

So much to say about Brazil, not least of which is the role that Erika Hilton, a Black trans leader and most voted woman politician in Brazil, played in mobilizing folks for Lula. She was behind the critical, concrete, economic promise of shorter work-week. theprint.in/feature/erik...

Abdul punches back and doesn't take shit. He isn't a weak centrist nothing. People want fighters.

After the first round elections, Congressman André Janones created a WhatsApp channel titled “Lula’s Army.” It ballooned to 10 million people following his commands on how to behave online to counteract Meta’s far-right-favouring algorithms. The right knows how to use socials. We must learn, too.

I just want to name that people overcame this. Even against a stacked deck, the good fight is worth it. Win or lose, it's worth it. And sometimes the good guys win.

It's really important to pay attention to the fact that Lula beat the fascist candidate not by compromising and trying to meet fascist voters in the middle, but by sticking to his guns, promising prosecutions for election interference, and mobilising his own voters to turn out in greater numbers.

Gas prices are “temporarily” high, says the president. That’s because Republicans are temporarily in power. Vote.

I think the genocidal dictator part is the key thing here, not The Factory

These motherfuckers hate women so much.

Obama: "We've seen this movie before. I starred in it. I've got a long-form birth certification to prove it. This stuff didn't work on me. It's not going to work in Michigan on Abdul."

JUST POSTED: A Russian energy giant has secretly moved to acquire a position in a massive Alaska gas project. Its part of talks between Witkoff/Kushner & Putin. But CEO of US company resigns after learning of Russian money in the project. A wowzer of a story. www.nytimes.com/2026/10/23/u...

Saturday is the last day you can register to vote. Go to vote.nyc to register and learn about what's on your ballot.

these fucks cheering the president of the united states calling another nation "a shit house country" jfc

Doug Jones and Tommy Tubberville are both running a barrage of ads for their AL campaigns. The big difference is Doug's ads use Tommy's own words against him, but Tommy's attack ads simply try to associate Jones with every maga boogeyman. Tommy is the worst candidate from either party in my lifetime

Absolutely disgusting, but what can we expect from an adjudicated rapist and a congenital liar?

Emiliano Andrade-Covarrubias has died at a GEO-owned for-profit concentration camp in Texas. DHS denied him life saving medication, including for heart disease after he complained of chest tightness and trouble breathing. Emiliano was a father, husband, son who deserved dignity and due process.

Bullying women on the regular is his distraction attraction. He is a rapist, he opinion means nothing. He is immoral.

Ossoff: "Mike Collins should explain his votes for the war, tariffs, and healthcare cuts, and he should come out and explain this morning's CNN report. If Mike Collins does not come out today and respond to this CNN reporting, then he is a coward." Here's the report: www.cnn.com/2026/10/23/p...

Trump‘s DOJ just announced that they are suing to block a possible Democratic win in the US Senate race in Alaska. Here’s what you need to know.

Just spoke to another young ohio woman who does not follow politics. She says she heard about it from a TikTok and said that her reaction was “that’s horrible” and can’t imagine why someone would think that would gain them votes

of course the worst people in the world see dogs as nothing more than part of their death cult fantasies just absolute pieces of shit

Just to be clear... Prop 40 is a ONE-TIME retroactive tax. It applies ONLY to billionaires and would tax just 5% of their wealth — which grew 30% in 2025. California's billionaires would still be worth $2T+ AFTER the tax. The revenue will fund healthcare for millions of Californians. Vote YES.

In his defense of Ramaswamy’s vile ad, Trump called Amy Acton a “defective” candidate. As a former rape crisis counselor who has worked with countless survivors of childhood sexual assault, I want to speak a bit about how profoundly damaging that is. 🧵

www.rawstory.com/trump-health... The uninsured rate: The Commonwealth Fund report shows that nearly half of working-age adults were “inadequately insured” this year due to a coverage gap or unaffordable plans. Around 30% of US adults reported having medical debt, according to the new report.

You know what pissed me off about the Ramaswamy ad beyond the obvious grotesqueries? There’s no EVIDENCE disputing Acton’s life story. There are court proceedings backing up her story. And all Ramaswamy’s got is the (accused) mother saying “nu uh” and somehow that’s enough? FOR THE REPUBLICAN PARTY

we're going to need a long-term plan, with broad political appeal, for ending impunity & holding the trump administration accountable for its crimes, malfeasance & cruelties. not 'tit-for-tat' but an american version of transitional justice. my take in @slate.com 👇

Mike Rogers was just caught on tape talking about how he wanted to make sure that there were retired cops who could intimidate voters in the city of Detroit. We deserve the right to vote. People have fought and died for that right. No more election deniers.

Let’s just recall that she is talking about a twelve-year-old.
