Yup, & RFK Jr lied when he said the Covid vaccine was "the deadliest vaccine in history" (in fact it saved tens of millions of lives pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC...) & he spewed racist, anti-semitic BS when he said Covid-19 may have been engineered to reduce risks to Jews & Chinese people

Flagrant, staggering bigotry from the highest offices in the land. Hell is not hot enough

For the last month, I've been posting examples of Trump's authoritarianism that I call "Dictator Move of the Day." If you search that phrase, you'll see that the fascist president is constantly trying to undermine our democracy. I'm going to keep doing these posts. We've got to stop him.

NEW: I'm joining a coalition of AGs demanding answers from Meta for suspending the No Kings Coalition's Instagram during nationwide protests. Meta must protect legitimate political activity of its platforms. We won't let Big Tech censor activism ahead of Election Day.

LEGAL immigrants in Tennessee are now unable to renew their driver’s licenses because of a new law from Tennessee Republicans. www.tennessean.com/story/news/l...

Gawd dammit, ^this^. Intercontinental ballistic nuclear ^this^. Flip the adults' table at muthafuckin Thanksgiving when unc goes full racist ^this^. Make shame hurt again.

“they were always like this” yes they were but they didn’t feel like they could say it out loud at a campaign rally and it was better when they didn’t feel like they could do this

bring back shame for being a huge fucking racist in public

i am inviting anyone from a legacy media organization to explain to me why the house judiciary dems report on trump’s epstein’s ties and multiple allegations of rape isn’t worthy of extensively reporting on. i’m serious. i want to understand.

Nobody wants to look back at this election and regret not doing more. We can’t afford to take anything for granted with the midterms while Trump threatens to sabotage them.

🚨BREAKING: We have moved for a temporary restraining order and preliminary injunction enjoining Trump from continuing to unconstitutionally impose themselves upon election administration procedures that the Constitution and federal law assign to the States.

Trump’s bid to steal a DC public park and turn it into an elitist golf course has been blocked. When many institutions kowtow to the dictator, federal district courts are holding the line.

The thing about RFK Jr is that he’s not just a eugenicist who peddles extreme and dangerous anti-science, anti-vaccine conspiracy theories that cause suffering, pain, and death, but he’s also a vile racist piece of s**t

People Magazine has it! people.com/former-miss-...

Homepage of the @miamiherald.com with story by @jkbjournalist.bsky.social that mentions rape in the first paragraph. See, it's not so fucking hard. www.miamiherald.com/news/nation-...

Fucking weasels.

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

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.

#BREAKING: the Ninth Circuit DISMISSED the Trump Admin’s request to segregate and not count any mail-in ballots that may be returned by a list of approximately 20,000 individuals it “believes” are “likely” noncitizens.

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...

There are only two explanations for the NYT's habit of presenting GOP operatives and donors as true swing voters: 1. Their reporters and editors are somehow incapable of running a simple Google searches, showing just a staggering level of journalistic incompetence 2. They want to the GOP to win

I think the fact that Marissa Mayer would voluntarily disclose this to a reporter is a pretty good demonstration of how deeply the culture of Silicon Valley has diverged from the rest of humanity

Reuters: US APPEALS COURT DENIES TRUMP ADMINISTRATION'S REQUEST TO STOP CALIFORNIA FROM COUNTING MAIL BALLOTS FROM ALLEGED NONCITIZENS

The first step was halting authoritarian consolidation. The second step is protecting the vote and the election. The third step is going on offense.

This is one good example of how appropriations hardball can work if you're willing to not blink first. Another: take your pick for demands and restrictions on funding Executive Office of the President. Yes, literally defund the White House. EOP is the central hub of the assault on the Constitution.

The Ramaswamy ad has pushed the largest newspaper in Ohio, the Cleveland Plain Dealer, to reverse its position on endorsements. "A candidate who uses childhood sexual abuse as a weapon against the person who endured it has crossed a line that Ohioans should defend, whatever their party."

It’s peak Trumpism when Republicans blow up a school full of Iranian Muslim girls and then call an American politician a terrorist because he’s Muslim.

🚨 NEWS: A federal judge has ruled that the Trump DOJ ILLEGALLY fired prosecutor Maurene Comey, ordering retroactive reinstatement and backpay. The judge ripped the DOJ’s defense as bordering on “frivolous” and rejected its sweeping claims of executive power.

The speed with which so many execs cozied up to this authoritarian says more about their revealed preferences than long term strategic thinking. They saw a chance for what they saw as a "business friendly" autocrat and oligarchic consolidation and jumped at it.

House Judiciary Democrats have just released a 50-page report that pulls together years of assault allegations against Trump and his reported connections to Jeffrey Epstein. The report calls for a special counsel to investigate Trump's ties to Epstein.

asked if Trump directed him to sue Alaska, Blanche says "I will not talk about communications I have with the president" (So, yes, Trump did)

Some ground rules that have helped us: - Go outside your bubble, try new social media channels - Don’t underestimate the power of WhatsApp (although less so in the U.S.) - Post on the Instagram grid, not just stories - Watch every Instagram video until the end before sharing - IGNORE THEM

@democrats.org @indivisible.org @50501movement.bsky.social: Could we do this, please?

I’m not a political journalist, so was gladly surprised at the community I found here last night. To Americans anxious about the upcoming elections, a key thing we learned in Brazil that might help you: DO NOT engage with the far-right online. Don’t share rage bait. Amplify your people. Ignore them.

the DOJ is basically acting as if the president’s delusions are true

ICYMI yesterday: A threat assessment before the midterms. MAGA wants us to believe that Trump can simply declare “martial law” and wipe away the system - but it’s just not true. The Right’s Fascistic Fever Dreams Are a Sign of Weakness

🚨BREAKING: Democratic candidate Mary Peltola and her party asked a federal court in Alaska to throw out DOJ's unprecedented lawsuit that seeks to preemptively block certification of Alaska’s U.S. Senate race if the Republican incumbent loses. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

God almighty, RFK Jr is such a repulsive, dangerous human being

Election Day is a week from tomorrow and early voting has started in much of the country. If you’ve been waiting to make a difference in the midterms, now is the time!

AK's had more notice but CA is more worrying. Equally insane and delusional as litigation, but CA tells us something: It doesn't have any close races so it's not about flipping a seat or two. There's only one reason to target CA: it has enough House seats to cover the margin of any Dem majority.

Leaders of the No Kings movement are already gearing up for the next major grassroots campaign: Making sure congressional Democrats don’t wimp out. My first piece at @newrepublic.com! (Reposted to update link card) newrepublic.com/article/2168...

NEW: Brent Taylor is the front-runner for one of Memphis’ congressional districts, recently redrawn from majority Black to majority white. As state senator, he repeatedly used his power to supersede local officials — and the will of the city’s voters. with @mlk50.com
