Walking the line outside the Trump rally in Corinth, I was reminded that more unites us than divides us here in Mississippi. I heard from folks who want to get foreign money out of our elections, put an end to flock cameras, keep our border secure, and make sure our veterans are taken care of.

I think the lesson from Lula is not never talk about the opposition; it's articulate a positive vision that's basically, We Can Just Do Things. That's why Mamdani-ism is so popular - voters have an intrinsic sense that their electeds have agency they're not using

Grassroots organizers staged a visible presence outside where First Nations leaders, Prime Minister Mark Carney and premiers were meeting on Monday, arguing that limited access, narrow representation and a push for major projects amount to consultation in name only.

I very much want to be wrong, but I think this outbreak is going to get much, much worse. Attacks on healthcare workers, active conflict zone, porous borders, sub-optimal surveillance. A very bad combination. apnews.com/article/ebol...

El-Sayed on Trump's cognitive tests: "I went to medical school...In my neurology unit, I would have to give that MoCA exam...The only people that you give a MoCA test to are people who you worry may have cognitive deficits. By definition, if you're taking one of those tests, something's wrong."

Well knock me over with a feather: Black Press has published an article in favour of proportional representation. It admits that the election results do not reflect the popular vote. That we have to keep going over this is like Groundhog Day albernivalleynews.com/2026/10/26/b... #bcpoli

While pundits on national television applauded Lorne Doerkson for running a campaign supposedly laser-focused on the economy, it appears white nationalists were paying attention when his campaign manager posted "fuck Islam" and when his relentlessly attacked Indigenous rights. Total media failure.

To be clear, this is sarcasm. It is a very bad sign that this election was taken as a signal by white supremacists!

ICE kept people locked up after judges ordered them freed. When Minnesota judges spoke about it, DOJ filed a misconduct complaint against them. Now 174 bipartisan former judges are urging the Eighth Circuit to dismiss it, and we’re proud to stand with them. Read the letter:

The lessons from Brazil and Serbia? Don't concede one inch of ground to the far right. Don't appease. Don't triangulate. Don't grovel. Don't say they have "legitimate concerns". Mobilise your base, and fight them with all the democratic means at your disposal.
