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...

Donald Trump has always been obsessed with our elections. He incited an insurrection after losing his election, has threatened states for their voter rolls, & refused to sign a historic housing package without a voter suppression bill. This an anti-freedom, un-American agenda.

OSSOFF: At a rally, the president egged on supporters who assaulted a woman demanding the release of the Epstein files. Because if you can count on one thing about this White House, it's their tireless commitments to war, inflation, and covering up sex trafficking.

Holy shit. Every single Democrat: This is the message. This right here. This is the whole ass pitch the voters in the weeks before the election.

Ossoff: "It's the most corrupt administration of all time & everybody knows it. While the crook president & his crook family rake in billions from all over the world, you pay more for everything... they lied us into war & spent most of the last year covering up for the world's most famous pedophile"

A felony conviction usually means losing rights like voting, serving on a jury or owning a gun. But for the first time in decades, the Justice Department is giving ex-felons a chance to get at least one of those rights back: gun ownership. n.pr/4xxGr4L

Trump’s EPA will no longer limit pollution from gas and coal-burning power plants. Reminder: Trump took millions of dollars in donations from Big Oil, and his EPA chief Lee Zeldin is cozy with the coal industry. Is there anything this regime won’t destroy to please its bankrollers?

Shanah Tovah, New York! Wishing all Jewish New Yorkers celebrating a sweet, joyful and meaningful Rosh Hashanah. Here’s to a new year filled with health, happiness and blessings (and yes, even another Knicks championship).

I absolutely LOVE this. Christian Bale spent roughly 17 years fighting to make this happen. This week, his foster-care village opened in Palmdale, California: 12 homes built specifically to help keep siblings together when they enter foster care.

Somebody in the room needs the institutional authority to say: “Mr. President… what the fuck is wrong with you?” Apparently that position wasn’t included in the staffing plan.

The ultra-wealthy keep trying to pit the rest of us against each other with scare tactics ("communists!" "men in the ladies room!!" "brown people!!!" "drag queens!!!!") to keep us from noticing that our real problem is THEM. They want us to fight *any* war—except a class war. Happy Labor Day.

Voting is our fundamental right — and understanding the processes at polling places helps us all to safeguard that right.

I’m re-platforming my life… over the next several years… switching iphone to Fairphone. Messaging to Signal. Browser to duckDuckGo. Email and storage to Proton. It will take some time but I’m looking forward to the change. No more feeding the machines. I heard MySpace is coming back, too!

The FDA won’t tell Americans where their generic drugs are made, so ProPublica did it instead. Use information from your prescription label to locate the factory and see if the plant has a history of inspection violations.

Shame on the 33 House Democrats who voted for an unconstitutional bill to block financial aid to any colleges or universities that support BDS. It's a solution in search of a problem (none currently do) and an assault on protected speech.

NEW: The Trump administration still has not directly denied whistleblower claims that USPS's “insufficiently tested” mail ballot system could leave thousands of voters disenfranchised before the midterms. That silence has become increasingly palpable as the legal fight reaches the Supreme Court.

Again. This is ABSOLUTELY an impeachable offense. Impeach and remove.

Trump continues to disperse disaster recovery funds based on how states vote, which for any other president or public official, in any other time, in any other country, in any other context would be a morally horrific scandal that would dominate headlines for months.

Federal corporate political spending has already reached nearly $650 MILLION ahead of the midterms, according to Public Citizen. That’s an all-time high — and we’re still months away from Election Day. Big Money is the real threat to “election integrity.”

I wish our government would go after pedophiles like they go after brown men headed to work at 7 am. I wish they would close billionaire tax loopholes like they close our public schools. I wish they would fund healthcare like they fund forever wars in the Middle East.

I hope Texas Democrats organize to get people to tie polls for early voting. If I lived there I would want to shuttle people.

That’s 92 polling stations cut, with most of them in predominantly minority areas.
