This ​election is our chance to vote for pro-education, pro-worker candidates like @ginafortexas.bsky.social, to create opportunities for generations to come. And if the UT-RGV rally for Hinojosa is any indication, young people are engaged and excited to vote. bsky.app/profile/aft....

It’s going to be interesting to watch many Americans come to terms with the fact that Netanyahu is not The Only Problem

House Dems Report: “A growing body of evidence demonstrates Trump was an active participant in Epstein’s sexual abuse of young women during the 1990s. The DOJ & FBI are doing everything they can to keep the 🇺🇸 people in the dark about it.” The report: democrats-judiciary.house.gov/sites/evo-su...

Off the charts Trump family corruption. Kushner got Billions of foreign funds, while spearheading foreign policy. And the Hunter Biden hunters are silent. @MarshaBlackburn

BREAKING: Former Miss Switzerland Accuses Trump of Rape A former Miss Switzerland alleges that President Donald Trump raped her while she was in the U.S. for a pageant in 1993. The allegation was included in a report released on Monday by Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee.

🚨 BREAKING: Travis County judge granted Gina Hinojosa's request to inspect Greg Abbott's unredacted Musk emails. Judge Mauzy set Thursday 10 AM as the DEADLINE for Abbott to let her see them. Abbott tried to keep them hidden, calling them "intimate and embarrassing."

This is still a message by @justinjpearson.bsky.social that every American, especially Black folks living abroad need to hear - so make sure to share it far and wide! I just have a little update to it: The TN deadline to register & request your ballot has now passed. Missed it? 👇🏾

Donald Trump repeatedly interrupted himself to make sound effects, and even mixed up the Pulitzer and Nobel prizes. trib.al/xMCfZY9

It’s the pedos club

For the fabulously wealthy, paying taxes is pretty much optional. They can borrow against their vast wealth, which is mostly an untaxed capital gain, without paying taxes. When they die, the capital gain goes to zero. And loopholes exist to bypass the estate tax too.

In Brazil, Supreme Court Judge Alexandre de Moraes issues an order: Flávio Bolsonaro, who just lost the presidential election to the incumbent Lula, stands charged with money laundering. He must surrender his passports and may not leave the country as the case is prepared for trial.

Fucking weasels.

The NYT story does not even include the word rape. Not once.

Republicans are the party of rape.

Will anyone—anyone at all—ask Trump about the rape allegations published in an official report by the House Judiciary Democrats? Or will he continue to escape accountability for his violence?

A serial rapist was elected twice as President, a fact we don't reckon with nearly enough. Now one of two major political parties has been molded in his image, run for and by violent sexual abusers who hate women.

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...

Our job doesn’t end when we cast our vote. Sign the No Kings pledge to attend an event if a national rapid response mobilization is called in response to attacks on our elections.

“At a moment when many doubted Lula could reverse the result, a WhatsApp channel called Lula's Army emerged, and rapidly grew to 10.8 million followers. Led by Congressman André Janones, the operation encouraged supporters to share videos, promote hashtags and recruit new voters.” 1/

STRIKE AVERTED: 275 workers at Bimbo Bakeries in Chicago just won a new contract HOURS before they were set to strike! They secured significant wage increases, healthcare protections, and stronger pensions. Management had a deadline. Workers had solidarity. Workers won!

👀 ““JD Vance has said absolutely nothing about this attempted mass shooting in Illinois,” said Patel, who pointed out the vice president’s muteness on the issue was particularly offensive because his wife, Usha, is Hindu.”

"The fact that you have all of these parties that are advocating major war crimes and nobody is blinking says something very deep about Israeli society, but also about an international community that has fostered this and that has allowed this to brew for all of these years."

Workers can't afford to sit politics out. Our wages, healthcare, pensions, working conditions and our right to organize are all shaped by politics. CEOs have lobbyists. Billionaires fund campaigns. We have our numbers and our votes. #WorkersVote

The orientation I want congress to have: productive conflict is GOOD. Dems have a real credibility gap. They need to communicate clearly to the public what they are for. Hold the regime accountable and force Trumpists to oppose popular stuff. Don't muddy the message with watered down bipartisan BS.

📊 A new poll reveals voters overwhelmingly reject Trump’s election-meddling tactics. Voters were given potential scenarios outlining how federal or state officials might respond to the 2026 election process. Overwhelming majorities disapproved of every tactic: https://demdock.com/4yIGP19

In less than 12 hrs, cyber researchers were able to penetrate Anthropic’s systems using AI agents—including Slack channels where the most sensitive models are discussed. Just weeks after whistleblower Joseph Coxon charged the company w/launching “a hubristic gamble” from a “private company’s Slack.”

From Zelenskyy. Patriot interceptors that could save innocent lives are sitting in European countries for weeks, which they paid for, unable to be transferred to Ukraine because Hegseth refuses to sign off.

Here Reps Pramila Jayapal and Jamie Raskin talk to me about working with Dem Appropriators to target Trump's corrupt prosecutions of Ilhan Omar and others with various defunding tactics. “We will actively and aggressively investigate this case,” Jayapal says. newrepublic.com/article/2171...

Around 175 House Dems just called on Trump's DOJ and DHS to end "weaponization of law enforcement" against Rep Ilhan Omar. The letter is signed by numerous ranking committee Dems, showing depth of support for Omar in leadership and signaling how Dem House will act. newrepublic.com/article/2171...

NEWS --> Dems are planning novel ways to wield power of the purse against Trump's corrupt prosecutions of critics like Ilhan Omar if they win House. Reps Pramila Jayapal and Jamie Raskin tell me a range of aggressive tactics will be deployed. Details in my new piece: newrepublic.com/article/2171...

The AI company, which makes the popular Claude chatbot, has filed for an initial public offering that could be one of the biggest ever. n.pr/4yM9Ybv

Relatedly, such a critical point from @brianbeutler.bsky.social. Guess who DOESN'T want a D electoral victory to be interpreted as call for investigations/accountability for Trump's corruption/authoritarianism? Trump and Rs, that's who! Dems can't let that happen: www.offmessage.net/p/wheres-the...

Is all this really feasible? Won't Trump refuse to sign anything like this? Won't he litigate it? Won't it lead to government shutdowns? Yes, yes, and yes. But it's still absolutely doable and necessary. Here's why: newrepublic.com/article/2171...

Dems also planning aggressive investigations into Trump's illicit prosecutions: Subpoenas on internal comms and on mid-level actors carrying out his corrupt orders. “Everybody involved from top to bottom will be subject to legislative investigation," Raskin says. newrepublic.com/article/2171...

thanks @joshchafetz.bsky.social

Excellent @gregsargent.bsky.social piece on Congress's power of the purse, how that intersects with its oversight power, and how Dems might use them newrepublic.com/article/2171...

NEW: The Trump administration is hiding a secret FISA court ruling that details how US intelligence is spying on Americans under Section 702. @dell.bsky.social w/ the scoop: www.wired.com/story/the-us...

This week’s main story is about how more and more white nationalists, antisemites, and Nazi sympathizers seem to be integrating into the Republican Party, how some of them are currently running for office, and how old you can be for JD Vance to consider you “a very young boy.”
