When your actual agenda is to harm America and Americans; Cheating becomes your strategy.

NEW: An army of volunteers and activists across the US have been training for months to face down ICE at the polls on election day. The message they have for the Trump administration? "We're ready" 1/ www.wired.com/story/massiv...

Wyna Liu is using AI to write NYT puzzle connections.

The central issue in the US election and elections worldwide is corruption writ large-a system that only works to serve the rich at the expense of everyone else, a system in which politicians and the rich are in bed together and yet screwing the rest of us. Affordability and corruption are the same.

Who is Donald Trump

We cannot bet everything on the idea that "post-Trump" is coming. The end of this regime cannot be taken for granted. When the Roman Republic fell they got a thousand years of tyranny. This may be our last chance right here and now. #ImpeachConvictRemove

My heart is heavy. Walter Koenig, our Ensign Pavel Chekov, passed away early today. Walter and I met on the bridge of the Enterprise in the 1960s, and we stayed friends for nearly six decades. When Brad and I married in 2008, Walter stood beside us as our best man.

This week’s installment of my Stop the Presses newsletter recalls the Republicans’ history of cheating in elections. They’ve often gotten away with it. Let’s make sure cheaters don’t prosper this time.

Sorry to respond to a meme, but this is in part a local news issue. Nobody's covering zoning board and city council meetings until it's way too late. Obviously, government capture by rich guys and corrupt local officials is the main reason, but the prophylactic is local news.

Today I wrote about Abdul El Sayed's encounter with a Christian fascist named "Tommy," and the fine art of digging up the shameful things fascists bury under their accusations, exposing them for what they are, and then burying their lies in the hole left behind. www.the-reframe.com/taking-our-c...

They have a duty to relentlessly repeat the process until the rule of law, checks and balances, our constitutional rights, and our democracy are restored. #ImpeachConvictRemove

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.

Brazil, thank you for winning 👍

Bolsonaro had corrupt media on his side, Meta interference on his side, US propaganda operations, and his party's officials actively sabotaging public transport in Lula strongholds to prevent turnout. Yet he was still beaten by the power of voter turnout.

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.

Yes, Slob Job, Nicki Minaj would make the perfect press secretary. Her husband is a registered sex offender convicted of rape who also served about 7 years for manslaughter. Her brother was convicted of sexually assaulting an 11-year-old child and is serving 25 years to life.

"a constitutional system that sees such an attempt by its chief executive and then leaves him in office has already been shattered." We have to fight to restore our freedom and democracy. No more excuses. #ImpeachConvictRemove

Part 2: How Trump is committing treason. Black Hawks over a Chicago apartment building. Every resident, kids included, zip-tied at the curb in the middle of the night. That’s a general warrant, and no U.S. court can authorize one. The president calls it a “war from within.” @flareusa.bsky.social

Americans have a choice. You can vote for Nazism—which is 100% what this is—or you can vote for America. Anyone votes for Nazism should never be forgiven by anyone they love or even anyone they know casually. Voting for Nazism is an unforgivable sin for good reason. It is treachery against America.

Sounds like a good plan. #ImpeachConvictRemove

Kansas Dem Sen. nominee Adam Hamilton on trans rights: “I don’t think we should take a small group of people and bully them, pick on them, and hurt them. I understand one thing really clearly when it comes to transgender people, and that is Jesus told me I was to love my neighbor as I love myself”

If the AI bubble bursts, "we need a people-first bailout," says writer @astra.bsky.social.

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.

This post 6 months ago should have ended support for Trump among Christians, but far too many of them don't mind blasphemy if it comes with a side order of racism and sexism.

Voters DEMAND impeachment! Impeach and Remove!! #NoKings #Impeach #Impeachment #ImpeachTrump #ImpeachTrumpNow @removalcoalition.bsky.social

This admission alone is an impeachable offense

We demand impeachment and removal! #Impeachment #ImpeachConvictRemove @houserepublicans.bsky.social @housedemocrats.bsky.social

Many of you are asking how you can help me in these final days before the election. My only ask is this: Spread the word about the threats to democracy and how we can fight back. Tell everyone to subscribe to Democracy Docket and share its content. demdock.com/4w6emld

Our democratic systems were not prepared for a criminal president to turn his administration into a fully functioning criminal organization. We need have a plan to address this. All Trump pardons must be rescinded. All of them.

NEW: Trump is already working to undermine the midterms, most ominously by filing lawsuits likely aimed at laying a foundation to challenge results or contest certification after Election Day. And administration officials say there could be more to come. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

The E.P.A. knows how serious the cancer risk is from chemical plants that President Trump gave waivers to. There are thousands of pages of agency documents that detail this risk. We read them.

I hope Texas voters understand that Musk is not trying to buy a senate seat. He's trying to buy the state of Texas, and they probably need to read up on what he's planning to do with it before they cast their votes.

He’s gotta go. https://www.lincolnsquare.media/p/musk-sucks Become a Lincoln Loyal Member to read the latest from Sam Osterhout

Elon Musk spreads disinformation about Ukraine after being exposed for sabotaging military operations by the WSJ. The US tax funded billionaire, Trump's largest donor, (backed by Israel and Russia); tied to the deaths of thousands of children due to USAid cuts, blames Ukraine for not surrendering.

Voting is not enough. Kris Goldsmith calls on every American who cares about democracy to join the Veterans Day Democracy March in Washington, DC on November 11. @krisgoldsmith85.bsky.social Watch full video here: thekenharbaughshow.substack.com/p/trump-choo...

The same people who spent the last 2 years telling us to wait for the mid-terms, will be telling us to wait for 2028 in about 2 weeks.

If we would only protest like the French.

When first reported, 2025’s jobs reports added up to 1.2 million new jobs. After revisions, the economy added just 116,000 — 90% less.

When I was on Bill Maher’s show back in the day, he’d call me a crazy Tea Party guy. With disdain. Now look what Maher has become - an authoritarian-embracing MAGA apologist. If you told me back in 2016, that I’d become a NeverTrumper, and Maher would become a Trump bootlicker, I’d of said no way.

The GOP never cares about vets. They start a lot of stupid wars, squeeze the service out of these young men/women, and send them home with little effort to address PTSD, little to no support for their health, housing, or their families, who often lived on public assistance while they served. Evil.

The J6 coup attempt never ended; it only got more powerful.
